Hey guys, thank you for waiting. My oldest dog, Mango, went on up to doggy heaven. I've had him ever since I could remember.
This chapter is dedicated to him.
I Love you Mango:)

I was currently running back to the infirmary in a hurry. After Xanther revealed to Ann that she was Saranya's heir to the throne, she fainted.

She's only been out for a few minutes, but she fell pretty hard onto the ground. Xanther caught her body, but unfortunately, not her head.

The doctor said that she might have a concussion. He wasn't sure though. He would only be certain once she was awake.

I burst through the doors and saw Ann lying on the same bed as when she first got here. Except she wasn't strapped down anymore.

Xanther trusted her not to leave or run away.

She started stirring and Dr. Troupe immediately started checking her out.

He asked her to get up and walk around. Also, to tell him if she was dizzy or had slow movements.

She answered no and the doctor announced that she was fine.

We walked out with Ann safely in between me and Xan and went towards The Arena.

While we were heading there, Ann spoke up.

"Hey guys, I had this crazy dream while I was out. It was someone, I don't remember there face but they looked familiar. They told me that I was a missing princess that was taken as a baby," she said as she busted up laughing.

"Um, Ann, that was real," Xanther said, already ready to catch her if she fainted again.

"Wait. What?" Ann said befuddled and shocked.

I could see it in her face as her memories returned. She turned to me and I nodded.

"Damn," she said as we all laughed.

We arrived at The Arena and got to some front seats just as everyone else started piling in.

After everyone was settled, the announcer stepped up onto his podium.

"The first fight of the night, Ladies and Gents, are, as always, the first levels. The contestants in this battle are, Sophie the plant tamer and Shawn the lightning weilder," he announced as the crowd went wild.

Sophie and Shawn stepped into the ring and I recognized the two twins.

They were serious pranksters and trouble makers. They almost always fought in The Arena, trying to best one another.

Sophie started circling Shawn, who wore a smirk on his face. She dodged behind some bushes and Shawn now wore a worried look.

All of a sudden, little vines shot out of the bottom of the bush and quickly made their way towards Shawn.

They wrapped themselves around Shawn's ankles, bringing him to the ground.

Continuing growing up his legs, they started dragging him into the bushes where Sophie waited.

He collected himself and used the little spark of lightning in his hands to burn away the vines on his waist.

Sophie then jumped from the bush she was waiting and hiding behind and threw herself on top of Shawn.

He was pinned.

Sophie threw punches at his face, stomach, and chest. Shawn tried to do something, but couldn't.
