~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ALEXA~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As if my day wasn't bad enough. Being thrown into my room like a little girl. How dare he! As soon as mother returned, I was going to tell her about this... abomination of social justice. Not like we had that at the time. But still, it was a beautiful day outside, and my room was on the third story. Aiden was doing his thing and I decided to let him be. We both respected eachother's privacy, and I didn't feel like being social. So I walked over to the window to stare out at the lawn that father kept nice and trim. There were about twenty guards lined up in a row, facing each other and the first two faced the gate. They stood as still as statues. Almost unnerving. Until one of them sneezed. Of course. I couldn't help but stare at the lush hills beyond the castle gates. So tempting to go, but I knew that I couldn't. And besides, mother wasn't back yet, so I couldn't do anything yet. But then the first guard fell on the floor with an arrow sticking out of his chest. Before the others could do anything more than blink, they all joined their friend. All I remember is me screaming as the stench hit my room. The mysterious archer was wearing a black robe with a black hood. Although I couldn't see his face, his beady red eyes looked strait at me. Then he raised his bow.
