I saw a mirror, some clothing options, scissors, hair dye, and other things to make me look good along with a button labeled 'Done!'

I started to work on my exterior as I wondered were I was.It looked like a bathroom without a door or a shower.  When I got done, I hit the button and was faced with a loading bar. Then I popped into the world I would soon have to save. "I will tell you what the king has done and show you your options, but now you need not worry, oh beautiful one. I am Vira, What is your name?" 

'What the fuck?' I thought "Annelise" I didn't know where that came from "Beautiful name for a beautiful girl" Vira said 'What the fuck?' "Flattery will not make her give in, Vira!" A girl I had not noticed said from the sidelines. She turned to me "Vira is here to kill me and my family! Do as she says to save yourself. I have no hope." I felt I needed to help her I looked at Vira "Be quiet! I am your ruler now Princess! You are just a failure! You've failed your kingdom! You truly don't have any hope, you pathetic piece of-" The people gasped. Vira put her hand on her cheek and looked at her hand, seeing the blood, she looked at me with my fist balled. She slowly smiled. "You have chosen death before you even heard your options." She pointed her knife at me "Now you shall die on your first day!" she ran to me and I went Autopilot 

I doged every swing she took. Every single one. I knocked the knife out of her hand. Her eyes widened now we were uneven and I had the advantage. We compromised. She allowed me to free one person other than the King. I chose the princess and we fled.

"Why did you chose me?" She asked once we couldn't see them anymore "I don't know, but I'm glad I did." she blushed "What's your name Princess?" I questioned I really wanted to know "I'm P-Princess Un-Unknown" she stuttered "I'm sorry, I get nervous easily. Especially aroud amazing people." I stopped walking and so did she "What's wrong?" 

"Shhh.... Hear that?" There was a ringing sound "Oh no. Duck!" she pulled me down as a giant bat flew out of the darkness of the woods and into a tree behind us. "Woah" 

"Yeah I'm not such a 'failure' after all, huh?" she smiled at her badass-ery 

After a few more of these encounters, we were out of the forest and I didn't realize how dark it was. "We are safe now" she said "We need rest." We built a fire, a shelter, and a bed we were just sitting together propped up on a log. Her breathing started to even out and she fell asleep on my shoulder. She was so cute asleep. I picked her up bridal style and put her in bed. I went to sleep myself after a while.
