"What!" Jake and I jinxed.
"But what about detuxfrim?" Jake said, in hope.
"Yeah, but what If it couldn't pull out Caliginous out of you, there is still a chance for you two, in case Sebastian is the one who has Caliginous in him. Otherwise, you two are doomed.. well I have to go, I'm needed, the Queen called me." Maraline said as she closed the door and hastened away.
"So what now?" I said in an unsettling voice.
"Well no matter what happens, our relationship will last." He said with a little smile. Yah, relationship. Why would anyone even make such a rule and Jake and I aren't technically together, I mean who says I'm marrying him, like, I'm too young for that. I shouldn't be saying this about the place I grew up in but this Kingdom sure is weird.

After an hour later, when Sebastian was back in the room, someone knocked on the door. When Jack opened it, we saw that it was Queen Sarahina. We greeted her. "What brings you all the way here your majesty?" Sebastian asked.
"Oh nothing, I just wanted to see you all," The Queen said, with a bright smile plastered across her face.
"Well that's creepy," I said in a low tone that only Jake could hear and he chuckled.
I noticed that when The Queen was talking to Sebastian, she wasn't looking at him because she was constantly staring at me. Then out of nowhere, I suddenly got a vision. In that vision, I saw The Queen on a horse with me. We were both laughing, and she was tickling me. Even though, the girl I saw with the Queen looked four, I immediately recognized that the girl was me. I somehow knew. Then suddenly two guards came and we both went inside the palace. Suddenly, I heard Jake's voice and the vision blurred and then ended.
"Ella! Are you alright?" He said.
"Yeah, I'm fine," I said, trying to hide my emotions.
"Are you sure? You looked as if you've seen a ghost or something," Jake said in a concerned tone.
"Yes, I'm alright. I was.. just thinking about the 'dark magic or in this case Caliginous and good magic cannot be together'" I said, in other words, lied.
"Oh, well I'll talk to King Aldrum about it and ask him why such a rule even exists," He said. "Yeah, you should."

When The Queen and Sebastian were done debating about the palace rules, The Queen told us that it's getting late and that she needs sleep, so she went away.

The next day, I went to the throne room, alone to talk to Queen Sarahina about my vision. It was so weird since I've never gotten a vision. I've read about them in books but never in person, have experienced it.

These white hallways all look the same and so does the pure golden doors.
I accidentally went to some old weird lady's room and thought it was the door to the throne room since all the doors were golden. She kept screaming, "Help! Stranger Danger!" so I just closed the door and ran away. I almost felt like I was committing a crime.

"What is it now?" King Aldrum said in a lazy tone as I made my way to him and the Queen. "I wanted to speak with Queen Sarahina, alone."
"Sure," the queen responded, before the king could object, so we went out of the throne room to talk.
"Yes, what is it child?" The Queen said.

She looked absolutely beautiful in the red gown she was wearing, and the red tiara which perfectly matched with the dress. I wonder why she chose to marry King Aldrum, I mean, he is so rude and unattractive even though, he wears good clothes fit for a king, but still, he somehow manages to look weird instead of handsome.

"Well, I had a dream, it was more like a vision, and I wanted to know if you knew something about it," I said.
"What's the vision about," the queen asked, pulling the ring on her left hand up and down.
"Well, I looked four in it and was on a horse with you. We were laughing and then the guards came and well that's about it."
The Queens' eyes widened. She opened her mouth to say something, but then stopped and then said: "Have you told anyone, anything about this?"
"No, your highness, only you," I replied, honesty.
"Well, I recommend you not to tell anyone about this. I have to go," She said as she went back to the throne room, leaving me without any answers. All sorts of crazy thoughts burst in my mind.

I knew that she was hiding something from me and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to find out what that is.
