------------------------------------

     "Your majesty, I heard noise from the west staircase. Which leads to the dungeon..." A voice called from the other side of the door.
    I shouldn't be here in the first place. I should be with my sister Kayla and my mom. Except I can't because they took me..
   I was standing next to Rachel, Collin's cousin on the dark staircase. She pushed her glasses back up, so they wouldn't fall.
   "What is going to happen now?" I whisper to Rachel.
   She whispers back looking at the door dead ahead, "I don't know, let's just hope my uncle doesn't kill us.." I gulp, not really wanting to meet the king. Everybody in front of me starts to back up.
  Hey, stop backing up, I'm gonna fall.." I say. Sean grabbed hold of Adrianna's arm before she fell backwards. Click....
   There was a hush that fell over everyone. The door opened, and there was a guard. Sword in one hand and shield in the other.
   "Call more guards! The king has some company awaiting." The guard sneered. Nora let out a loud gasp. One of the guards grabbed hold of her wrist pulling her farther away from us. I made my way to the bottom of the steps.
   "Hey. That's our friend, now let her go!" I yell. Just as another guard comes. He grabs hold of my wrist, yanking me towards the door.
  I screamed at the top of my lungs, hoping that he would let go. Except he didn't, but what he did do was yank harder.
   Soon all seven of us were being dragged through the door. Kicking, hitting and screaming. They placed us in a row, while they stood behind each of us. I looked ahead at whom seemed to be the king. It was King Sebastian...
   He sat high on his golden throne. His dirty blonde hair perfectly done like Collin's. With a jeweled crown upon his head. To the right of his was another golden throne and a smaller golden throne. To the left of him was two more small golden thrones too.
    "Nora, is that you?" King Sebastian asked in his deep voice. Nora stepped forward and curtseyed. "How dare you help these murders out of the dungeon!" He yelled at her.
    "Your majesty, wait!" I said. He turned his head towards me. I swallowed and started to talk, "We aren't murders." I say, he sits up straighter.
   "Good one. You are just some pity little village girl." He says chuckling. I looked down from his gaze I held. It hurt so much what he said.
Adrianna steps forwards.
   "Father it's me, Adrianna." She says smiling. King Sebastian didn't believe her one bit.
                                                                                                                                    

"Prove it!" He yelled at her. "PROVE IT!"
   "This.." Adrianna says softly. Pulling down her sleeve on one of her shoulders. 
  I look forward at her to see better. There was a mark left on her arm below her shoulder. Not just any mark, it was like a special birthmark of a royal.
    "Adrianna..." He whispered.
   Adrianna looked at him and walked forward even more until she was a few feet away.
  "You little monster, come here." He said his arms outstretched. After they embrace he looked up again. "Where's Isabella and Collin?"
  They stepped forward.
"Well?" He asked. His voice booming again inside the throne room. It almost made my eardrums explode.
  Izze and Collin looked at each other and did the same thing Adrianna did to show her birthmark. It was the same exact one.
    I looked at Rachel. Streaming down her face was a few fresh tears. Sean patted her on the back.
   "Welcome back my children." He smiled.  Now who are these three?" He said pointing a finger at us.
    "It's Rachel, your niece. This is Sean and that's Sarah." Rachel says. Sean and I wave and bow. King Sebastian nods.
    "Well then..."  King Sebastian says clearing his throat. "How about a nice dinner in the dining room? Nora, take Sarah, Sean and Rachel to rooms for them to get ready please." Nora curtseyed.
  She put a hand on my back and started leading me down a long hallway of windows. Sean was on Nora's left , and Rachel walked beside me.
    We walk silently. There isn't much to say. I wonder if I'll get to meet the Queen. Maybe she is nicer than the king...
  Wait, where is the queen?
   "Alright, Rachel this room for you. Sean this one is yours. Sarah, this one is yours. Just come down the way we came and make two rights. Then you will be in the dining room." Nora says smiling. Then disappeared down the hallway of paintings and windows.
Rachel gave a small smile and went into her room. Sean and I did the same. I turned the knob and walked into my room is be staying in. For however long until I'd get to go home.
    Inside the very big room was a bed, a big window, a closet and a small couch in front of the window. I walked over to the closet. Pushing open its tall, white wooden doors.
