Don't mind this one. Just a filler chapter.

FLAME
She looks towards the wall and back at us after the human voice yells.
"Oh, uh, I gotta run. It's been nice meeting you guys and I hope I see you again soon!"
Her voice was full of insincerity but somehow I knew we would meet again. She turned and ran to the wall and scaled it like a pro. Her movements were quick and agile. When she got to the top, she waved over the fence and turned to us, giving a mock salute with a mischievous grin before deftly hoisting herself up and jumping over. I could hear cheers on the other side of the wall. I shake my head and turn to Snowflake.
"That was something." I joke.
She turns to me with an icy gaze, "We both know that she wasn't any human, Flame. I'm going to find out who she is."
She storms in but later yells, "Come on Snowball!"
The blue beast hurries in, reducing its size to that of a large dog. I sigh. My relationship with Snowflake wasn't working. If I didn't put a stop to it soon, it won't end well.

"Kiana, the lost princess? You have got to be kidding me!"
I had gone to check up on Snowflake and she had found some information on the human we had seen earlier. Apparently, she was our lost princess.
"Snow, it's probably some kinda joke." I try to persuade her.
"I know what I saw, Flame. I was born on the same day as the princess and my mother and the queen were great friends. I'd recognize those eyes anywhere." She snaps, clearly irritated.
"Okay, okay." I raise my hands in surrender.
I leave the library. This can't be. Just then I hear raucous laughter. I jump into a tree, close to the wall. I peek through the leaves and spot her. Kiana. Our supposedly lost princess. She was in the tree, hanging off a branch with a goofy smile plastered on her face. She swings herself unto the branch, landing in a crouched position. Her movements were so accurate and calculated. She had made enough leaves fall and cover another human. A male. He had chocolate brown hair and warm hazel eyes. He dusts himself off and playfully glares at her. She laughs a melodic laugh and sticks her tongue out at him.
