-----Bridgenette P.O.
-----in ballroom
Grandma was standing there, waiting for me. I took my steps carefully. She rarely gets me out of my studies, especially so close to me turning queen.

"Bridgenette." She said.

I bowed in front of her. Even though she was my grandma, she's still the queen. She smiled at me.

"Relax, there's no one but you and me."

I smiled back at her. "Why did you ask for me?" I asked.

"You have mail." She smiled.

I squealed. Grandma looked at me. "Sorry, grandma." I said.

I opened the letter, and started reading it.

Dear Blue,

I went by the name of Blue. I couldn't tell her that I was princess Bridgenette of China. I continued reading.

I wish you could come for a visit. Or that I could come over. Anyways, Chloe's still being rude to everyone. Except for Adrien, who she never leaves much.

I rolled my eyes at that. She had wrote about how she had a crush on this Adrien boy. She even wrote a whole paper about how "perfect" he is.

My grades are getting better and I'm spending more time with my friends. They're the best. I really wish you would come down so I can met you. And so you can met me. I bet you'll love my friends. Well, I got to go.

Bye, Blue.
Marinette

I let out a sigh. I really wished I could see her, and met her friends. But I have to stay here and become queen.

I started writing to Marinette when I was learning how to write to other kingdoms. Grandma told me to write to a major of Paris. It got lost and Marinette found it on the street.

After that, we've been writing back and forth to each other. Even though I didn't see her face or hear her voice, it was as if I knew her my whole life.

Grandma smiled at me. "You better write her back."

"I will." I said. I miss my grandma on the cheek and ran to my bedroom. I knew she might say, "princesses don't run" but I was to excited to care.

I grabbed a pices of paper and a pen. I stared writing down some things that had happened. Max followed me in my room.

"So, what are you going to write to her this time?" He asked.

"Just gow exhausted I am from being a princess." I said.

"Remember, you can't tell her you're a princess."

I rolled my eyes. "I know. And I can't tell her I'm about to become queen either, but I wish I could. Maybe she could come and see me. Or I could see her at her home."

"Keep wishing. You know you can't leave the castle and she can't come here."

I let out a sigh and went back to writing my letter to her. I knew Max wanted me to be happy, but he also wanted me safe.

-----midnight
I was asleep. The castle was quiet, like always. I then heard some footsteps coming at my door. It knocked on my door rapidly.

"Princess. Princess."

I quickly got out of my bed and ran to my door. I opened it and saw Max standing there. He was panting.

"Max? Max, what's wrong? What happened?" I asked him. Just then he fell to the ground. I looked at him and he was bleeding everywhere.

The blood was spreading. It was now on my hands. I tried to shake off the blood but that didn't work. I turned to run away, but I saw my grandma standing there.

"Princesses don't run." She said. She looked different. Like she was a zombie, and the only thing she could do was tell me what princesses do and don't do.

Just then the letters I wrote and received flew at me. They were attacking me. I turned to see my people standing there. A kids were crying. Adults were dead on the ground.

A girl then came up to me. "Why did you let this happen? You killed all your people. You're the worst queen ever."

I was screaming as I sat up in my bed. I was still screaming from the nightmare. Max and a few other guards came running in the room.

"Princess? Are you alright?" One of them asked.

"I'm fine. Just a nightmare. You may leave." The guards left, but not Max.

"Another nightmare? What was it this time?" He asked. I then told him everything.

-----after a while
Max was hugging me as I finished telling him what happened. "Its alright. You'll be a great queen. You'll save your people."

I held onto him. He always knew what to do. He even stayed the night until I fell asleep again.he really was my best friend.

-----next day
Grandma and me were eating breakfast. "So, I heard you had another nightmare." She said.

I nodded. "This is the third one the week, and its not even Friday." She said.

"I know you are scared about becoming queen, I was too. But you'll see that in time, you'll be great at it." She said.

"That's what Max said." I said.

"Max is smart. He knows you'll become a great queen one day. But until that day comes, go to studies."

I nodded and got up and walked to my room. I then saw the general coming from my bedroom. I looked at him. No one was aloud to enter my room without my permission.

Just then Max grabbed my hand and ran the other way. I was about to say something until he put a finger to his lips, signaling me to stay quiet.

We ran to the front doors. Everywhere we ran, soldiers were coming for us. "Where are we going?" I asked.

He shook his head. "What's going on?" Max." I said, taking my hand back.

He sighed. "The general is looking for you. He wants to take over the kingdom. If he gets you, then we have no hope. But there's one more thing you need to know."

Just then a loud crash came. "Here." Max said, handing me a folder. "This will tell you everything. Find Marinette and stay with her. You'll be safe with her."

"What about you?" I asked. Before he said anything else, the general came at him. He grabbed my hand again and put me on a helicopter.

It started going up and Max was fighting the general. "Wait, Max."

"Go, I can't hold him for long."

"But..." I said, with tears coming through my eyes.

"Stay safe, princess."

Then the helicopter left. The tears were still coming and showed no signs of stopping.

"Where to, princess?" The person said.

I thought of Marinette. How Max told me to find her.

"Paris."
