Any words with this font are Dahlias thoughts from here on out, enjoy.

Dahlias eyes fluttered open. Her eyes where greeted by an explosion of light that stung her eyes, it took a while for her eyes to adjust to the sudden lighting but when they did, she noticed she was sitting in a bed. An actual bed. I must be in heaven. She looked to her right and saw the same soldier snoozing on a chair beside her bed. Nope, definitely hell.
With the soldier sleeping soundlessly on the chair beside her in the light she could finally see him.
He had gorgeous hazel curly hair and was still wearing his shimmering black uniform with a red and orange dragon scaling down it.
Holy black jesus, if he isnt a snack than I dont what is.
His muscular body was so still and harmless yet gave the impression that if youd touch him youd actually get burnt.
Nope, hes definitely a four course  meal and lucky I'm starving.
With that thought she looked around to find a source of food.

The room she was in was. Well. Different.
The walls where a plush pink with a chandelier in the centre of the ceiling. A vanity covered in jewelry stood to her left and behind the soldier to her right is a window bed looking out of the room. Plants and other random things that apparantly goes in a bedroom covered the area.
"Disgusting" she whispered.
"Well look who's finally awake" Dahlia jumped at the sudden noise.
How long has he been awake for?
"Where am I?" Dahlia demands as he adjusts himself in the chair.
"In the royal castle, it's where we keep the prisoners before we send them to the ground to show what they can win back if they succeed" He states.
"So your bribing us?"
"Think of it as a little push to your winning spirit"
"Who says I have a spirit?" I cross my arms over my chest as I slouch against the bed head. "Or even a soul? I've hurd people call me the soul eater, the crazy seducer, the Syrin. My lovely cell attendant loved to talk. So which one have you called me soldier?"
The soldiers face switched from numerous expressions. First shock, anger, repulse than nothing.
"I do not spend my time talking about worthless junk who we store in a cell"
The retaught should have stung her, it should gave hurt in some way, but it didnt.
"Do you even know who I am?" The words came out like a whisper.
"All I know, and care about is the fact that you can use your powers even with metal on your skin and that is the only thing I will ever care about with you involved" his voice turned hoarse as his eyes pinned her to the stop.
Her blood turned hot. Boiling hot. It simmered under her skin. He doesn't even know me and yet here he is criticizing me. Hes probably done worse than me.
"You wanna know something funny?" Her voice was like a syrin. "I dont care about you either"
She flung up her iron covered hands and with it, the soldier went colliding into the wall. He was pushed against the wall so hard that the wall began to crack. She glided along the ground towards him and whispered in his ear.
"Let's see who's worth more when I save this country"
His face was pale, full of nothing but fear. With one more shove, his arm was snapped in half. Bone poked out of his arm as blood gushed out of it. A scream escaped the soldiers lips and a group of soldiers ran into the room.
Dropping the soldier to the floor she spun just in time to see 7 soldiers form a line across the room holding there rifles.
"Surrendor or we will open fire!" A man shouted.
"Ray!" Someone in the line screamed,
Guess theres no surrendering. not like I was going to.
