(Name)'s pov
I could feel myself getting back to my consciousness, I let out a tired groan and slowly I open my eyes.

I looked around the room in confusion, it was dark, it was dusty and the whole place seems to be lightened up by the sunlight through the window above me.

I sit up but only to be blocked by chains around my wrists, I looked at them before I struggle to break free.

It wouldn't budge, I pant out of tiredness before I sat up the best I can.

I tried once more but then I noticed "where are my casual wear? And what is this dress?"

"Looks like someone's awake." I gasp hearing the sudden voice, but I didn't see anyone in this room.

"Who are you? Where am I? What is this place? And why am I chained to the bed?" I asked leaning forward a bit.

"Well, sweetie..since you asked." The female voice answered before a figure walked out of the shadows, I gasp in realization that it was--

"Madam Apples?!" I yelled out of surprise looking at her with wide eyes.

She looked OLD, her hair is grey, her face is all wrinkled..kinda, her posture was still tall and proud, how does she walk like a woman!? She's 68 years old for goodness sake! My father told me that she left right before a month of my birth, he said she was 48 years old when she left the island.

"Surprise to see me? After twenty years, hmm?" Madam Apple smirked looking at her nails.

"But, how? You were banned from the island!" I reminded her, she sigh softly with her smirk not leaving at all.

She walks towards me and sat on the bed, I scooch away from her but she pulls me back where I was a second ago.

"You see, dear. You and your parents might thought I'd left for good. But, I'll always have a trick up my sleeves--"

FlashBack

"No, sire! I'm begging you!!" Madam Apples begged while she struggles against sir highness guards whom are pulling her to the boat that has awaited.

"No. I can't let you and your magic affect my daughter with such magic of yours!" King (last name) yelled out of frustration while standing in front of his wife, who is eight months pregnant.

"No. Please, I'm begging you! I promise I won't do anything to your daughter! I won't teach her my magic! Please, sire!!" Madam Apples begged again, struggling more Against the guards' holds.

"No nonsense! I know what you can do and what you WILL do with my daughter. and I have no choice but to banned you from this island!" King (last name) shouts before he turns his back and helps his wife to their royal carriage.

Madam Apples was furious, she can prove to the king that she can do magic no one can ever do! But of course, the king himself banished her from the island.

Madam Apples couldn't take it anymore, so she made a plan.

She created her clone with her magic which took three days to complete, she use her apple magic to sail her back to the island where she will take her revenge.

Madam Apples manage to find herself a home away from home, she seeks everyday and night to find ingredients for her master plan.

But, of course..the only ingredient she needs was Youth of a princess

End of FlashBack

"Now, you see dear? Your father was a stubborn man, he banished me and banned me from coming back but of course, I came back. And start a new life where I will rule the whole kingdom!" Madam Apples cackled, standing on her feets and as if thunder just made the scene more evil.

I gasped before she starts coughing, I sweatdropped but at this matter of hand..I think of a plan.

"What was the reason?" "Hmm?" Madam Apples hummed in confusion after she sorted out her throat problem.

"Why did father banned you from going around near me? Does he not trust you?" I asked before I finally looked at her red eyes.

She sighed heavily and sat down again "well dear, your father and I were close friends. Like sister and brother, but I grew feelings for him and told him about how I felt. He rejected me and said "I met someone else". I was heart broken. But I remembered that there were more men out there than him. He got married and invited me, but I didn't came. I was busy with my own world."

"And then, what happened?" I asked, urge to know how it all ended.

She smiled softly "And then, I discovered how much it means to be a witch, my specialities were involving apples, so that's why my name is "Madam Apples"." She chuckled and I too chuckled.

She calmed her chuckled down before she continues, she frowned and held my hand "The time I came back, your mother was pregnant with you. Your father was worried about his best friend after I didn't came to his wedding day. I showed him my magic and he..faded away..."

I frowned and let go of her hand to pat it, since I'm tied down "It's alright, Madam Apples." I told her.

She smiled a little before she sighed "He slowly consider me as his untrusted friend before he banished me when it was a month before your birth, I begged to him but your father, of course, doesn't trust me like how we used to. I was enrage and sad. And before I knew it, I was seeking revenge on your father." She finished and stood up.

I looked down at my lap with my hands clenched into a fist "How could he do this!? I mean, you were a good witch--"

"That was me, before!!" She exclaimed looking back at me with her red apple eyes narrowed down at me, I coward under her deadly eyes with a small whimper "But, I have changed. And now. I will take something dear to him away."

And with that she left.

I sat there, shocked and scared, and there in my head.. questions unanswered.

Pino, Noki, Kio, where are you?

Triplet's pov
Niko was sitting in the living room, sitting on the triplet's couch.

Kio was laying on the ground beside the couch, he looked like he just run  miles and miles.

Pino..not so much, he seems to be making something but his face was all drowned out.

That's it, I give up, they're bored to death.

//Bye 2020! Hello 2021!! May this year be the best for all of us!
