-Elizabeth's POV-

It started raining heavily. I couldn't fly, it was too much water. I walked a bit until I saw a big castle. I walked closer to it and saw that the door was a little open. I walled inside.

"Hello? Is someone here?" I asked.

"Hello?" I asked again. I felt something on my mouth and nose and then everything was black.

I woke up in a dark room on the floor. I felt a little dizzy.

"Who are you?" Asked a voice.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Who are you?" The voice said angrier.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I am Elizabeth." I said.

"Now then Elizabeth, you need to get ready. You have five minutes." The voice said.

"To what?" I asked.

"You will see. Take on this." The voice said and then some clothes was thrown in front of me.

"O-okay." I said. I was in someone else's castle, so I could at least obey to an simple task like this.

I took of my clothes and dressed myself in the long black dress. Then a knock on the door was heard. I opened it to see a boy.

"Good, you are ready. Now let's go!" He said and started walking. I followed. Soon after, we arrived at a room or rather a cell. A prison cell.

It was one person that stood inside it like some sort of puppet.

"She is new. Tell her everything and I might let you live a bit longer." The boy said. Then he pushed me inside the cell. He soon left.

"W-what is happening?" I asked.

"You need to work from now on. Everyone in here is prisoners. Do as he tell you and it will be easier for you." She said.

"W-what?" I asked.

"Do as he want and you live. Disobey him and you die." She said. I nodded slowly.

"Anyway, my name is Diane! Nice to meet you." She said more cheerful.

"My name is Elizabeth." I said.

"Nice name! So now when it is two girls here, I won't be the only one!" Diane said.

"What do you mean?" I asked. She come closer to me.

"The other prisoners are boys. It is 2 of them after 2 had disappeared. They are nice, but to much of boys some times." Diane said.

"We heard that." A voice said. Then two boys from the cell beside us come.

"My name is Ban." A tall man said. The same man that said 'we heard that.'

"I'm Harlequin, but call me King." Another boy said.

"Wow, you have a pretty dress." King said.

"Thank you." I said.

"Did you really come all the way here with that?" Ban asked.

"No, I was told to have this." Elizabeth said.

"From HIM?" Everyone asked.

"Him?" I asked.

"The boy you come here with." Ban said.

"I don't know if it was him or not. I didn't see anyone before he knocked on the door, but it was the same voice." I said.

"Unbelievable." King and Diane said at the same time.

"Yeah." Ban said.

"Anyway, get everything around here yet?" King asked.

"I think I do. Do as told, right?" I asked. They all nodded.

"Good, no trouble with you. Welcome to the survive group." King said.

"What?" I asked.

"We are the ones who have survived this asshole as hell. Everyone else have died along the way." Diane said sad.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." I said.

"Nah, no biggie, we didn't know any of them." Ban said.

"Okay. So this boy, what is he like? Harsh or kind or?" I asked.

"He kill everyone who doesn't do as he says. Some was tortured to death wile other was instant." Ban said.

"Yeah, no reasoning with him." King said.

"Like they say. He is really scary. You never know when he comes. He just say to do things and then you do them if you don't want getting killed." Diane said. Then i heard a growl. It was their stomachs.

"When did you last eat?" I asked.

"Yesterday." They all said at the same time.

"What? Why not today?" I asked.

"We get food when we do a great job." King said.

"Oh, how often is that usually?" I asked.

"About one meal a day, two if we have luck." Diane said.

"And if you have bad luck?" I asked.

"Not for a week." Ban said. I understood immediately. Then the door opened and the boy come in with a plate of food. Just one? Is this what they eat every day together? One plate?

He laid the plate outside the cell.

"Your food Elizabeth. Eat up." He said and walked outside.

"Wow, that look fresh." Ban said.

"Here." I said and gave everyone a bit of the bread and some of the vegetables.

"Won't you eat?" Ban asked.

"No, I'm not that hungry. You need it more." I said. Diane hugged me.

"You are the best Elizabeth!" Diane said.

"We would hug you if we could." King said. Ban nodded.

"Well, eat up." I said. They all started eating, didn't left one mini bit.

"That was the best we got since we become prisoners." King said. The other agreed.

"I wonder what time it is." I said.

"About 9 PM." Ban said.

"How did you know?" I asked.

"You learn that after a while." Ban said.

"We should go to sleep, we never know when to be get a task." Diane said.

"You are right." King said as they both laid down on the floor in their cells. I laid down beside Diane.

"Is it only me that will stay awake a bit more?" Ban asked.

"Yes." Diane and King said.

"Seems like it." I said. Then Ban laid down too.

"Good night." Everyone said to one another.
