Part 2.

Cassandra's POV~

Today was the day.

But was I ready for it?

Rose and I had been left alone to prepare for the final stage, we were on opposite sides of a dressing room that had mirrors galore and clothes scattered left, right and centre.

Thanks to our servants' help we had bathed, dressed and applied the appropriate makeup for today's stage. Our mentors had also played their part in giving us any final advice and tips for the showdown that would take place.

Now it was down to me and Ros to finish what we'd started. Thankfully we had both been gifted time by the Prince to meet with our friends and families and bid them farewell if anything was to go wrong for either one of us.

My family were hopeful, to say the least. They had a strong feeling today wasn't goodbye, they had this belief in them that I could do it and had faith in me not to fuck up this once in a lifetime opportunity now I'd made it this far.

After meeting with everyone, Rose and I were instructed to pick our final IMPRESS colours to wear and represent us at the coronation later and whilst I selected the colour that I had been consistent with throughout the competition, green, Rose went for hers which was blue.

For the stage, however, she and I were wearing similar huntress outfits. The biggest difference in what we wore was the colour, my attire and its accessories were a tad darker than hers.

Nevertheless, our outfits were pretty much the same, we wore a leather-slit dress with lightweight body armour and weaponry pouches strapped to our thighs and around our waists.
