"What happened to you?!" Meredith screeched.
"What," i said looking down at my clothes,"
"Your....your....HIDEOUS!!!"
"Excuse me, she is my friend so back of lady!" Melissa shouted,pushing me aside.
"Yeah, b-back off," Silvia repeated, looking at Melissa and copying her actions.
"Children, please calm down, now darling, you must be hungry!"
"GRANDMOTHER!" Silvia screamed," HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT AFTER THIS RAT-GOBBLING BRAIN HEAD*excuse my language* WAS SO RUDE TO VICTORIA?!"
Grandmother willow sighed and led Meredith into the kitchen for a meal." ok, now that they're gone and it's just us, I need to tell you something.... I need to go back to the caste and save the slaves my mother has held captive," I blurted out, feeling relieved.
" I'm in." Silvia immediately said.
" WHAT?! She'll have you killed!" Melissa followed.
" I've already made my mind up, but we need a plan....." I said, grabbing a quill and a piece of paper from a shelf.Hours passed
"Ok, so are we all clear about the plan?" I asked, twiddling with the quill.
" I think so..."
" I guess,"
"Not really."
"That's good enough for me! Let's go!" I enthusiastically added.We made our way to the door and our bags were ready packed. "Food?"
"Check!" Silvia said, rummaging through the bags.
"Bandages?"
"Check!"
"Water?"
"Check!"
"Melissa?" I asked, staring at her intently,
"Check! W-wait what?" Silvia mumbled.
"Melissa, what are you wearing?!" Silvia finally said, turning her head.
" well I found this dress in grandmother willow's closet, and I thought maybe I can blend in with the royal family, cuz, ya know, we are going to a castle!" She squirmed in the tight corset.
" you've never seen a castle, have you?"
"Nope."
A few minutes later.
We quietly stepped through the door and inhaled the crisp air. I shut the door behind me and we made our way to the kingdom. " now remember,
If you come across the tribe, hide as quickly as possible and I'll try to stall," Silvia reassured, looking anxious," maybe this wasn't such a good idea..."
"It'll be fine," I said, trying to comfort her.
" I trust you,"
We all split up and headed onwards, Melissa headed north with her sister, Silvia east and i went west, which from what I could remember was the way to get to the castle.Melissa's POV
Wow these trees are so big! I love this fresh air, we should go out more often. Da dum da doooooo! I'm so crazy sometimes! Oh my lord! This is where I met Victoria. "Look Gabriel! This is where we first met Victoria!"
" oh yeah!" She replied,
Let's get back to my internal thoughts, shall we.... Gabriel and Melissa are walking down the path of the FOREEEEEEST. Gabriel is my sister, she is younger than me, but sometimes people say that the one who looks the oldest is she! Amazing rap Melissa! Wow I'm so lonely, I'm talking to myself. Oh look, there's light! I wonder if they can help us find the castle!Silvia's POV
Oh! I hope my father doesn't find me! He'll be so furious, I can just imagine what he'll say.... "SILVIA! HOW DARE YOU LEAVE THE TRIBE! Oh by the way the human who I was about to kill suddenly vanished!" Oh no, he'll know it was me, grandmother always says he has the sixth sense and that I won't be able to get away with anything. A light! That looks like fire! Wait... a fire in the middle of the forest, that's not right....
Back to Victoria's POV
I'm finally here! Oh how tired I am, I could just fall asleep right here! Ugh how am I going to find a way in.... *scream in the distance* wait, what was that?! Oh no.... I hope nothing has happened, I can't take the risk though. I ran back through the thick undergrowth and retraced my steps, when another scream sounded, and I could now hear chanting, it sounded familiar.....
