The Dungeons of the Castle:

I woke up to find myself in a cold rock cell. The blood ran from my lips, and I was in a little bit of pain. As I looked up, I saw the moon shining through the bar window. I couldn't remember what happened to me. I got hit so hard from the black smoke, I couldn't remember what happened to me. As I got up from the bed, I heard the door opening. Two men showed up, and one of them grabbed my arm. I couldn't move or speak with the pain still hurting me. "He wants to talk to you, now! Move it!", one of the men said while forcing me to walk with a knife being held close to my throat. As they walked me out of the room, I let out a few tears. Still thinking about what I've done. Not just to me, but for Mark as well.

The Throne Room of the Castle:

As me and the men kept on walking, we stopped at a large door. One of them opened it, and I saw him standing there with an evil smile on his face. I couldn't dare to look at him. "Hehehahaha.... Hello, (Your Name)...", he said to me. I looked at him and gave him a glare. I was NOT happy to see his face again. "Hahahaha!!!! Now that's a face, alright! Guards, leave us alone.", he said as he also ordered the guards to leave. As they closed the door, I looked at Dark walking around me. I even felt a cold chill of my blood tickling down my spine. "Well... It looks like you've ran out of places to hide... I must say that I'm impressed that you've tried to escape me...", Dark said as he placed his hand on my chin. I pushed his arm away from me, and he smiled evilly. "But you do know for a fact that I will not let you go... Even going back home to that man, will be torturous enough for you...", he said again. I looked up at Dark and started to talk finally. "Why are you doing this? Why do you want to kill Mark?", I asked him as he laughed evilly at me. "HAHAHAHA!!!! Foolish girl! I was never betrayed by him. He was betrayed by me! I never liked the way how he treated me. Just using me for his own personal games, Pfft! But now that I'll finally be free, I will have my revenge. Oh... Not to even mention that we'll be perfectly happy together. I knew that one day a certain friend of his would try to come here and help me....", Dark explained as I saw that giant mirror behind him. It played images of Mark cosplaying as him, and it showed a picture of me this time. I was in shock when I was hearing all of this while looking at the mirror changing images. "BUT THAT WAS JUST THE EASY PART!", Dark said as the mirror turned into a hellish red now. "Now comes the part where I escape this place and get my revenge. With sunrise only ten minutes away, I will finally be free... It's still nighttime here, but he'll be dead in exactly ten minutes...", he said again. I looked down at the floor and clutched my fists. I was so angry at his statement, I felt like hurting him. But I didn't want to use the potion just yet. I looked up at Dark and started to cry a bit. "I can not believe you, Dark. You stole EVERYTHING from me!", I told him as he looked at me. "Well you've wouldn't have HAD ANYTHING IN THE FIRST PLACE, IF IT WASN'T FOR ME!", Dark shouted at me. I gave him an angry look and saw the mirror turning even more redder. "You've betrayed your old master! You've betrayed his friends! And worse of all, you've lied to me and betrayed me! Thinking that I was going to marry you after finding out the truth about you!", I shouted at him as Dark looked angry in the face. The mirror behind him started to crack a bit, and I saw some demons floating around it. "WELL MAYBE IF YOU WOULDN'T HAVE FOUND OUT YOURSELF, THEN WE WOULD BE HERE RIGHT NOW! I WAS BETTER THAN MARK! I WAS THE BEST ONE!", Dark shouted at me again. "You were NEVER good enough than Mark! He's far more powerful than you!", I concluded. However, Dark's eyes turned red in anger, and I felt a weird force of air around me. "I GAVE UP EVERYTHING FOR HIM!!!!", Dark shouted again as the mirror broke a bit and smoke pushed me to the floor. I got up, and saw the mirror now turning into a teal color. "But that's all in.... The past.... It doesn't matter to me anymore. Because there isn't that much time for Mark to live. And when I'm done with him, you'll have no other choice but to be my queen.... We're going to be very happy together, you and I....", he said while walking up to me. He placed his arms around me, and I figured that this was the time to get out that potion. "I will NEVER marry you!", I shouted as I also slammed the potion on his head. Dark then let go of me and screamed. He was seriously burning after the liquid was dripping down on him. But I had no time to look. I ran up to his throne and took the book. As I opened it up, I saw that the roses were in there. He must've wanted nothing bad to happen to them. But as I was about to take them out, I felt an arm grab me from behind. I screamed in pain and saw Dark staring at me.
