A War With 2 Hearts

Chapter 2: A new plan

Bella stared out her window from her room, looking out to the other kingdom that she was forced to hate. Ever since her birth, there has always been wars. When she was three, she had watched her mother's army march out onto the battlefield that always seemed haunted. One time she played out there, and her mother scolded her for doing so. Now that she was older, she didn't really understand why she had to hate them. She thought the reason was ridiculous and scoffed at all the stories. She thought the wars were unnecessary, and wanted to explore more of the other kingdom. During lunch, her father announced another war happening the next day. Her sister, Heather, smirked as she ate. "Don't you ever get tired, papa?? And I'm pretty sure all your men are done playing patty-cake with the other soldiers." She said, she scooped up some soup. Bella frowned at this news, and Alex piped up, "I wanna play patty-cake!!" 

That night, Bella was sitting on her bed, and Heather was sitting across from her. Bella then spoke, "Do you think that doing wars is really solving anything??" Heather scoffed at the question, "Of course!! Otherwise we'll be shoveling manure while the enemy takes the throne, it's common sense!" She said, Bella gave this thought. "But it seems so pointless." She thought to herself. 

Back in the second kingdom, king Freddy was talking to his warriors. "They don't know what's coming, all these years we had numbed them and now they won't suspect it!!" He announced, his best warrior, Bon, replied, "What sort of plan do you have??" Freddy looked at his great companion, and proudly explained,"We shall distract them by having our usual war. Then you, my good man, shall snatch the princess who is next in line to be ruler!!" Bon Bon looked surprised, "Although I am greatly honored, why do I have to kidnap a girl??" He asked. Freddy smiled, "Well, since Baby is giving her daughter the throne, we shall take her so it won't happen. That way, there would be no other daughters to give the throne to!! It's genius!!" Bon shrugged, not sure if this would work, but to be doing such an important job, it was an honor. He saluted and was about to walk out when he stopped, "Oh, what about the child?? What shall we do with her??" He asked. Freddy grinned, "That should be obvious enough."
