My eyes grow wide. "Uhh hi" I say. I'm scared. I hear Jake run up behind me. "He-" I hear him start to yell then stop. I start to shake. "What have you done with the Queen!?" I yell with all of the courage I have. "Done? What have I done?" Prince Drandrew replies. "Yea" Jake says putting his arm around my waist. "I have done nothing to her" The prince says with his head high. He sticks his noise in the air and walks away. I scoff. "God why can't Princess Sophie be Queen and why does he have to become King!?" I yell. "First Princess Sophie is 9 and he's the only one they could find willing to become King. Frankly I think he's hiding something". I nod and make my way to the room I had been given, AKA the queens. I here footsteps behind me. Lots of footsteps. I turn and see Jake doing the same. "Guards grab her!!" I here a man yell. They push down Jake and grab my arms. "Hey let me go" I yell trying to pull away. "Sorry, but the Prince has ordered us to throw you in the dungeon" I gasp. "Why?" I ask sternly. "Treason". I gasp again. "I have done nothing of the sort, now let me go". "Lady Anna you must stop" I hear someone say. Then I feel a hit on my head and slowly everything goes black.
When I wake up I'm on a straw cot. I rub my head where I had been hit. I feel a bump and wince. I drop my hand when I hear someone talk. "Finally your awake!" They yell. They are young and male. "Who's there?" I ask standing up. "Your inmate cause they have those here". His accent was odd and strong. "Are you from Almeria?" I ask cautiously. "Nope". I hear him come closer to me and out of the darkness. "I'm from Kalliope" I here him reply. His face was nicely shaped and a beard was starting to form. He had lots of muscles, much more then Jake. "Kalliope?" I ask. I had never been that smart but knew that was far from here. He nods. "How did you end up here then?" I ask. "I was on the run from some guards, had to leave the kingdom, but all of the surrounding kingdoms were not friendly with me so I had to run far. Almeria is on a coast and far away so I came here" he explained. I nodded. "Ok and what did you do?" "That sweetheart is not any of your business". I raise an eyebrow. "Say you look a lot like the Queen" the man says. I roll my eyes. "i get that a lot". "The spray paint is kind of washing out and your hair is most obviously black" he say pointing at my hair. I bring a chunk in front of my face and gasp. "It was never like this before" I say. "Hmm. I hope you don't mind my asking but since we will be spending quite a lot of time together, what is your name?" He asks. "Anna" I reply. Instantly I fell different. Whenever I hear my name that seems to happen. "You?" I ask him. "Rolph" he says. "But please I hate my name I planned on changing it but since that didn't happen please call me Ro" he said with a mocking bow. "Oh well then Ro" I say curtsying. We both laugh. I lay down on my bed and sigh. Slowly I drift off to sleep.
