Arielle's POV

I woke up to the sound of birds chirping, I looked over at Dante who was still sleeping, I got up and went to explore the building some more, I found the courtyard and walked outside to sit on a bench, it had a statue in the middle of it, I seen a notepad sitting next to it, I grabbed it and began to read what was written

Day 12, I went to check on the unknown warrior but what I seen was so sinister, he turned into a fiery red dragon before my eyes, I quickly ran to let everyone else know what I just seen but when we returned to the area he was in, he had disappeared never to be seen or heard from ever again...

I closed the notepad and put it back where it was laying at, I felt a hand on my shoulder I jumped up quick thinking someone from the castle had finally found me, I bumped into the statue after I turned around and seen Dante

Dante: easy Arielle, it's just me

Arielle: you scared me Dante, I thought it was someone else

Dante: I didn't mean to scare you, we should keep moving just in case they do come looking here

Arielle: yeah, are you going to leave your armor here?

Dante: no we don't have time to waste

I grabbed the notepad again and we left, we walked through a meadow and towards a wooded area, we found a small pond and decided to rest, Dante got cleaned up and I read some more out of the notepad

Day 22, the unknown warrior had returned, he was covered in blood and had deep wounds, I was left in charge of keeping him cleaned up, he handed me a small piece of paper, I opened the note and seen the words "find my son" I tried to get him to tell me his son's name but he died before he did.

I closed the notepad before Dante walked back over to where I sat, I wanted so bad to tell him how I felt about him but was scared to...I was in love with Dante but my only fear was how he would react to me telling him about it

Dante: what is that you have Arielle?

Arielle: it's a notepad that I found, I've been reading out of it a little at a time, it's been talking about an unknown warrior that could turn into a dragon I just read another part about the warrior wanting whoever wrote in it to find his son but died before he could tell him his son's name

Dante: a warrior that can turn into a dragon, It sounds a bit strange don't you think?

Arielle: yeah but this person sounds so serious about this unknown warrior

Dante: we should keep going and try to seek shelter, it's not safe for you out in the open like this princess

We continued to walk until we found an old fortress, we explored a little, I found a room with two beds then I found a closet full of women's clothing, I decided to look for something to wear and change out of this ball gown, I found the perfect outfit to wear and put it on quickly

I went looking for Dante but couldn't find him anywhere, I found my way to the balcony close to the throne room, I stood over it and seen Dante in a big clearing, I found my way into the place he was and put my hand on his shoulder

Arielle: Dante, are you okay?

Dante: yeah I'm fine I was just looking around, are you okay?

Arielle: yeah I'm fine, I found us a place to sleep if we stay here

Dante: yeah we are staying here, I'm getting a little tired and what are you wearing anyway Arielle?

Arielle: the dress I had on was getting me hot and I found a changing room, why you don't like it?

Dante: it looks good on you, but if your father was here he would make you change clothes, Arielle

Arielle: I know he would and we need to find other people soon

Dante: we will, I'm going to take you to the city I was born, we will be safe there but it's another two days from here

We walk to the room I found the beds, I watched as Dante walked to the other bed, he fell asleep a few minutes after laying down, I read more out of the notepad

Day 50, I found the city where the unknown warrior called home; it didn't take me long to find his wife and son, she told me her name was Alanna and his son's name was Dante, they moved to the safety of an eleven city, Dante spoke of his friend which was the king's daughter he told me that her name was Arielle...

I closed the notepad in shock of what I just read, I wanted to wake up Dante but he was sleeping so peacefully, I laid down and fell asleep
