The Fallen And The Found

Early Mornings and New Beginnings

Cain swung his red blade at the attacker. I must protect the princess... I must. He thinks as the life drains out of him.

Catalyn's eyes shoot open. What a weird nightmare. She thinks to herself as the thoughts of the dying man fade in her mind. "Kitty cat hurry downstairs! You don't want to be late for your appointment! " Catalyn's mother Meredith called. She sits up in bed and checks the time. Seven thirty. Waking up on a Saturday at seven thirty in the morning for a stupid eye exam. This sucks balls. She yawned and gets dressed before heading downstairs to the kitchen. "Oh Cat you look beautiful! " her sister said going to hug her.

"Hey Hannah." Catalyn said trying to get her sister to loosen her death grip. For a ten year old girl Hannah was strong. Meredith smiled at the girls as she finished doing the dishes. "Are you ready to go sweety?" Catalyn nods. "I don't know why you nod about everything dear. It's unbecoming. No respectable young man will notice such a quiet girl. " Her mother chided. She rolled her blue eyes. "If I want to be noticed I'll speak. Until then I'm fine being the wallflower. "

A knock on the door captured the attention of the three ladies. "I'll get it! " Meredith said in a musical voice.

Catalyn watches her mother leave the room and thinks to herself. If mom is this pushy about my etiquette then whatever but this isn't me. God I hope high school passes fast so I can graduate and get the hell out of here.

~Meredith~

Meredith didn't have to answer the door to know who it was. "Susanna it's great to see you! " She said seeing the platinum blonde woman on her porch. Susanna wasn't as cheery. "Likewise. Where is the girl Meredith? Have you told her yet? " She asked pushing past the mother. Meredith shakes her head. "I haven't yet. I was going to today. " She said slightly annoyed. Susanna looks impatient. "As her adopted mother it is your job to prepare her for her role as a- " she stops seeing a blond haired, blue eyed, girl listening in. "You must be Catalyn. My name is Susanna Thornberry and I'm here to collect you for your coronation process and preparation for taking your role as the seelie queen." She stated as though she expected the most grateful acceptance.

~Catalyn~

Catalyn frowns. "Well why the flying fuck are you wasting your time here? To be honest I think you're some crazy bitch trying to take me from my home so please turn your skinny ass around and I hope the door promptly hits it on your way out cause I'm not leaving. " She said crossing her arms.
