"I don't know princesses you tell me." 

"I don't know why I help you ." I sighed into my hands. "I don't know anything. Why I do these things, I just get this feeling, and this feeling always ends up getting into trouble." The fired crackled. "Do you think I'm trouble." He stared deeply into the side of my face, I kept my eyes on the fire. 

"No." There was a small silence from his part.

 I felt my chin being turned. "Big mistake Princess." My eyes widened. Feeling his lips slam onto my own. I gasped feeling his tongue slip into my mouth. I strange noise escaped my mouth vibrating against his mouths. He let an odd sound out, pulling away. I took a deep breath, panting out of breath. "I can't control myself with you." He said more to himself than me. He quickly stood up stepping out of the cave. 

I sat in front of the fire, in shock. 

I lightly touched my lips. 

He just. And I just. I slammed my hand over my mouth. What in the world was that embarrassing noise! I took a deep breath, regaining myself. "He stole my first and second kiss," I whispered, in shock. "That-that, bandit." I quickly stood up to give him a piece of my mind. "Dawnavine Swindon, child of William Swindon and Isabell Harris." Every hair on my body rose, that voice. "It's you." I said in almost a whisper." She slowly came out of the shadows. I backed away. "Sit." Without any control towards my body, I obediently did as she said.  I struggled, I was going to scream when suddenly the voice I thought I had had completely disappeared. "It's best if the boy doesn't see me right now." She pulled out a mug from her cloak, taking a sip. 

"You have the beauty of your mother, but the eyes of your father," I sat still, I prayed that the bandit would come back.  She stood up almost limping to me. My breathing began to intensify as she grabbed a hold of my hand. "Your father, did something, very bad, because of him, the will suffer the consequences, and the bad he did will catch up to him." She pulled out a knife, "It will end in, bloodshed, his, the peoples. Yours." She slit the palm of my hand. I felt the pain but I couldn't move. What did she mean by all of this...she grabbed my hand placing it above the fire, I watched as the blood dripped down onto the flames. "I will show you." My eyes widened. 

This. What is this... it looked like war, it was the people of my kingdom, against the army, bodies laid upon each other, kids, mother, fathers, killed. My father, he was overthrown, he laid, on the ground, with a picture of mother in his hand. I felt a tear escape my eye. Dad..."You can stop this, you know." I looked at the old lady. "The answers your looking for aren't here, but in the ocean, break it, before it breaks you." And just like that she was gone, my body was free, I shaked with fear. Footsteps were heard from behind. 

"Hey princesses, I just wanted to apologize-." I slammed my body into his own,  I clutched onto him, afraid of what would happen If I let go. His body tensed, I shivered under him, in less then a second he fully embraced me taking me into his arms. 'What happened, " He whispered into my hair. I shook my head. He patted my head, "It's okay." I didn't want anyone to die. Was it wrong to fear death. We stayed like this for a while, I don't really remember what happened, I ended up falling asleep.

"I think she's waking up." 

"Get away from her you idiot!" 

"Owch!" 

"You dare hit me!" 

"You're going to wake her from her slumber you two." 

"So what, she's been sleeping for two days now." 

My eyes where closed, I slowly began to wake up. My eyes where adjusting everything was blurry, but just as quickly, it became clear.

...

I met eyes. 

"Ahhhhh." - "Ahhhhh"
