I dashed towards the gate when no one was looking. I climbed all the way up and jumped my way down. I hurried and started running. I gotta get out of here before dawn strikes!
When I finally made it to the port of a nearby town, I was nearly out of breath. The sun was rising up the harbor. The light killed my eyes.
"Excuse me, do you have a boat leaving to the Eastern Province?" I asked an old man. "Boatz? Thews no sucht thangs loke thot here" the old man replied in an accent. "What did you just say? Did you say, The bitch you like is in there?" I mimicked. "Now, I ain't saye thot!" the old man replied. My face went blank and I bowed down to show polite/thank you. I speed walked away. Rule number one, don't talk to strangers especially elders. They speak another language than the one you speak.
"Um, excuse me. Do you have a boat coming by here soon to leave for the Eastern Province?" I asked a lady. "Boat? Yes, but it's only a Cargo ship. It's controlled by the Manolians (Manolia people). It says it will come here to get some cargo before sailing off to the East" the lady replied. "That's great! At what time, miss?" I asked again. "I believe that it will arrive at twilight" the lady replied. My face went pitched black. I bowed my head to show my thanks. Twilight? That's like 18 hours away! My god, this life is so unfair!

I fell asleep on a tree branch. I was awoken by these "banging" noises. I rubbed my eyes and looked out onto the sea. The moon's light glistened brightly on the gentle waves. There was a large ship, parked on the shoreline. My face lightened up. Yes! My ride is finally here!
They were loading in cargo onto the ship. I quickly jumped off the tree and landed on the ground. I couldn't let them find out about my plan so I hid in a cargo box nearby. I emptied out the cargo that was in there and squished my fat self into the small shitty box. It was a pain and a nightmare.
"This one's heavy."
"Must contain a lot of goods then."
"Help me carry this on the ship. It's the last one."
I heard these two mans chatted as they began to lift box. Then I was dropped onto the ship with a loud thud. I am going to be shipped away from the Western Province, in a ship, in a small cargo box. Ain't that wonderful. Not.
~*~*~*~
I fell asleep on the ride there. Even though it was cold, rocky, uncomfortable, shaky, awful, I lived through the ride by sleeping. There was a tiny slit on the box so I could see what's going out on the outside world from the inside. The sun 's light came in through the tiny little window from the boat and into my slit hole.
I woke up. I busted out the box, like a boss. I looked around my surrounding. Then I realized something. I'm a day behind schedule! I was suppose to arrive there yesterday and assassinate the King before today arrives because today is.....is...is, the wedding meet!! My plan backfired! Wait, the good news is that I didn't go through that training to become a lady. I started crying and banging on the ground. Soon enough a crack appeared on the floor.
Father, this is the day where your daughter may have died from drowning.
Author's Note:
I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to delay Lucifer's appearance. I guarantee you, he's showing up next time. This chapter is about her sad life of traveling to get to the Eastern Province through a cargo ship in a cargo box. And now the ship has a crack on the floor. *"My heart will go on" playing softly on a piano in the background* (LOL)
When your plan backfires because you weren't paying attention and sleeping. Yusa, poor you.
