"I shall never tell," the Queen replied. Without another word the man thrust the dagger into her and Adrastea let out an involuntary scream, quickly covering her mouth. But it was too late. The Human snapped his head around and looked at the door. His face was square and dirty, with a scruffy blond beard and a long scar across his forehead, nose, and cheek. Adrastea stared with wide eyes at the horrid thing, still covering her mouth. The man leaped for the door and the Princess jumped back as it swung open, running as fast as her legs would carry her back down the hall. "GUARDS!" she screamed hoarsely, dashing up the stairs. She could hear the man's footsteps right behind her but did not dare look back. "GUARDS!" Adrastea yelled again. Reaching the top of the stairs the young Princess halted, looking down the empty hall. The guards were gone.

They thought I'd forget. But I remembered. Everything. This is a story that I entered in a contest that was made by @Ithildaeforever and @Gadsul. @SilentSparrow432 made the cover and I designed it :)

This is the second book in the After Robin series. If you haven't already read the first one I suggest reading that one first as it could get confusing if you haven't. ................................................................................ Emmalina and Callum haven't seen each other in two years. With Callum being in battle school and Emmalina living so far away, it's only expected. Samantha still comes every Saturday to Castle Locksley for the weekly delivery of bread and such what, bringing Emmalina news of the what's been going on around Castle Landly. ................................................................................ Emmalina has been living at Castle Locksley for two years and has been having the time of her life. She's learned many skills and has been so caught up in studies that she almost forgot about the whole incident that happened nearly two years ago. She still doesn't forget Callum, but she doesn't expect to see him ever again. And guess who shows up at her doorstep, desperation written all over his face. Something has happened to change both their lives forever. Could the fact that Callum is an orphan be wrong? Is there still a wall between Emmalina and Callum? Will Emmalina realize that everything Callum has been telling her is true?

This is a story about Robin Hoods daughter. I originally wanted to do a Robin Hood re-telling, but I couldn't think of a plot. ........................................................ Emmalina has been an orphan since she was twelve. Her mother had died from the fever and her father had left on a crusade when she was three. She kept her family a secret from everyone she met, not wanting to think about it. She lived as a ward in the castle, helping the maids and the stable hands as much as she could. Work kept her mind off her past. The only true friends she had were 19 year old Callum McClain and Dax, her black-footed ferret. She had a sickness that grew in her for years and she never told anyone. It grew worse over the years and one day, her mind brings an old enemy of her family down upon her. As the castle burns, secrets unfold...

"I REFUSE TO BE PART IN A WAR MY OWN KING STARTED!" Adrastea shouted, loosing her temper once more and throwing her chair across the room. "We don't want a war," Adrianna told her quietly, trying to keep her composure. Adrastea rolled her eyes and peered at Adrianna, burrowing down into the very pit of her soul. "You already have one." "Please, if you two would just get along, we might be able to solve this," Chandra tried to reason. Dagon looked at Diomedes with a confused expression, than turned his attention to Adrastea. "If your own king started this war, as you say, then why are you not part of it?" he asked reasonably. Adrastea snapped her head in his direction with that same cold gaze, but he remained completely calm. "He may be my king, but it makes my stomach lurch to have to admit it," Adrastea told Dagon in a low voice. "Everyone! Calm down! I know it's a mismatched group, but you're the best we've got," Cephalus interrupted, seeing where this was heading. Marcy swallowed hard and walked slowly behind Weland. This was not what she had signed up for. "Huh, yeah," Diomedes mumbled. "If they don't kill each other first." <<>>Updated every Monday<<>>

I got this idea from @KnittingStoryteller. She's has a book like this and I just thought I'd try it out. Hope you like it :D

Tegan May Colden is a high school senior...But there's a slight twist. She's homeschooled. She has a part time job at the local museum that she use to volunteer at ever since she was 12 and she now volunteers to help the janitor at the high school. Her life is perfectly normal and runs smoothly...Most of the time. It all gets thrown off once Mr. Thomson, the history teacher, decides to show his students who cleans up all their messes, tunes all the guitars for the orchestra, and waxes all the floors...

On Holy Thursday we made Pyzanki eggs and KnittingStoryteller asked me to post pictures of them. Note: The cover is my sister, Xenia's, hand. She's in the process of making one.

Remember when Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy built their castles in the air, in Little Women? This is my "Castle in the Air".

This is a story for a contest that I really hope to win. I'm only 13 so it will not be perfect. I hope you have fun reading it and if you don't, I am truly sorry. If I did anything wrong, or if I need to fix something, or if I need to add something, please, please, please inform me. I want to know all of that. This is just a total learning process for me. Thanks- Anna :) p.s. Don't forget to comment on your way out :D
