The secret house With the secret room
I wake up, and I'm in a strange, blue room. James, in all of his tidiness, is right there next to me. When he sees I'm awake he reaches out. As an afterthought though, pulls back. "Are you ok?" Says the boy that almost killed me. Thrice! "Ok, I'm so, ah, sorry, and I didn't mean to hurt you," Mm-hm. "But you were in the way and was going to get yourself killed trying to stop me. Plus you betrayed me, and I was angry but somewhere in me I knew you wouldn't mean to do that. So I avoided, uh, bad spots." Ya, more like lethal or fatal spots, "And I really am so sorry about what I said, what I did, and how I acted."
"Please, forgive me?" Oh, he made me so angry sometimes... However, he did say sorry, he was right I did betray him when I went and got help, and I was prepared to fight to my death. So in a way, "I forgive you for everything, except, blowing me out of the sky, twice!" his face is so full of happiness that I have to say, "So, where are we?" He takes a while to answer.
"Oh, that, well I didn't want to carry you here.." Wait you, carried me! Away, not leave me and get help, then have someone else carry me! "And we had no safer place to go, because the academy would of asked questions, especially your dad, and we can't get to our dorm without being spotted... So I took you, here." I stayed silent for a while. "Oh," It's all I can think of other than, "Where is here?" With that he takes another minute to think. "It's, ah, my house? I know, I know, I know, we live in the academy until we graduate." Before thinking I reach out and touch his cheek, I almost pull back, but decide, just in time, not to. However then, lovely, low toned music rings out from somewhere in the house. "Are we being spied on?" I ask "What no. No. No. No. That's not right, we are, uh, just, just a second."
James has never acted so weird, with his dreamy ice crystal colored eyes, and perfect, white hair. Nope not ever. But since James won't show me around, I will myself.
As I get out of the bed I see I'm still in my academy outfit, with everything still intact, except my weapons. Sneaky, taking my weapons, while I slept through a knock out he gave me; Sneaky.
I wander for a while, look at the paintings from someone named, Clary fray. See art from the 200 C.K. indians. Find rooms with everything from a simple bedroom to a king's room; and a room of gold, to a room of weapons. Never running into anybody. And just when I'm about to turn back, I bump into a servant girl. With a little blue dress and an apron on; and perfect blue eyes. She screams her head off! Almost literally. "Oh, I'm sorry," when I hold my hand out to help her up she just stares at my hand and shrinks away on hands and knees. She acted like, like I was some kind of monster. I wonder what James did to this girl to make her act like this?
I wandered around some more when I come across a oddly tilted painting. It was tited like an opening. I wouldn't of thought twice about it if, just when I round the corner outsteps James. With some strange man. He has no wings, no claws, and no magic residue on him. Which everyone has. This man must not be from this kingdom. But, what kingdom has no magic residue, no animal traits, and no form of transportation? The girl I bumped into rounds the corner, and, with a new tray, of envelopes? She turns toward me with her finger pointing at me.
Just then as I fling round the corner flying as fast as I can, I catch a snip-bit of what they were saying "Yes, I'm sure, I will keep her here. She will not escape. Now get her!!"
