Chapter 1: New home, and New Faces.
Unknown.
What's going on? Where is everyone? MOM! DAD!, WHERE ARE YOU YOU!. Her mind was racing as she quickly moved through out the castle, dodging any fallen stones, tables and anything else that seemed to have been in the way of the ongoing attack. Her body felt like It was on fire as she made her way through the hallways, trying to find a sign of where her parents might have been.
She screamed for help but the servants where too busy running away in fear to notice her. "WAIT, SOMEONE HELP ME. I AM THE PRINCESS FOR HEAVENS SAKE" She jumped back as a light beam fell from the ceiling, catching a small part of her silk dress and setting it on fire. She quickly put it out and began racing like a madman down the west wing of the castle.
Right as she about to make it to the King and Queens champers, her body was thrown against the wall. It felt like a thousand stones had been pushed into her spine as her breath escaped from her lungs. Her vision was slowly becoming cloudy due to the lack of oxygen in her lungs, that were slowly being filled with smoke.
She heard faint footsteps approach her almost lifeless body, "I can't believe I almost missed you, Princess~" Her hazel eyes slowly made there way up the unknown person, who seemed like a Silhouette even from close up. A smirk was placed upon there face as they picked up a sword and without any hesitation swung at her. "NOOO!"
She flung out from her bed shielding her face as if to protect herself, only to find herself alone in a room. "It was only a dream…" A small relieved sigh escaped from her lips as she looked around seeing no one. It wasn't until she looked down, suddenly realizing it wasn't a dream, both of her arms were wrapped in medical bandages along with one of her legs.
She began to frantically scream making a few nurses rush into the room to see what was wrong. One of them, tried calming her down as the other tried laying her back down. "Princess, please calm ye self, you wouldn't want to open up old wounds now would ye?"
The raven haired female slowly began to calm down as she looked at the nurses, realizing they were right but first, she needed to know for wither or not her dream was real. "Where are my parents and what happened too me?" Both of the nurses looked at one another then at the young girl, who's eyes were filled with wonder and pure fear she waited for them to answer her question, but also wasn't ready for them to answer it.
King Roland.
King Roland and the rest of the family were sitting in the dinning room, eating breakfast and talking about today's plans. Since Sofia, Amber and James didn't have class today, they all decided to go on a picnic to relax and talk to one another. As Amber continued to go on and on about how much fun they were going to have and the dress she picked out, King Roland couldn't but laugh of how adorable his daughter was. All three of them had grown amazingly during these pasts years, both Sofia and Amber where looking more and more like beautiful women worthy of a handsome suitor with each passing day and James was becoming a handsome man who was becoming worthy of claiming the thrown.
He placed his hand over Queen Miranda's, still listening to there children. Even though they where teenagers now, they still were the same as before. He began to join in the conversation seeing how happy they where to spend time with him since he had been away to discussing a ongoing war between a feuding kingdom, in which he wanted to make sure they wouldn't bring other's into the feud. "I am glad you all our happy about today and right after breakfast, I will get Baileywick to get a coach ready for us along with some food and games."
The three of them gleamed with happiness as Baileywick came into the room. "Oh Baileywick I was just about to call for you" Roland smiled brightly as his trusty steward approached him with a somewhat serious face. "Is something wrong Baileywick?" He asked, gaining the attention of everyone at the table.
"Something seems to come up at the Kingdome Evermore and they have requested I bring this too you right away." He handed him a sheet of paper informing him of what had happened the day before. His face become slightly stiff as he stood up from the table.
Roland thought his expression wasn't noticeable to anyone until he heard James voice break his stare that he had on the letter in his hand. . "Is something wrong, Father? He asked. He nodded slightly as he looked at him "It seems so, I want you all to meet me in my study in twenty minutes but for now I need to discuss something with you're mother so will you please excuse us."
All three of them nodded their heads and quickly made there way out of the dinning room and into their fathers study to talk about what was going on. It was rare for them to be in this room so whatever he was going to tell the three, it must have been important.
After a few minutes, of discussing with Miranda, he made his way to his study alone, hoping James could handle the responsibility he was going to get. He slwoly opened the door making his way over to his chair setting down so he was facing them. He looked at all three of them with a serious expression. "You all know how I have been away on business, right?" He heard them all say yes in union, looking at one another with slight fear.
"Well, one of the farther kingdoms seems to have fallen and I must take you're mother with me to pick something up and discuss something's that need to be done to repair the Kingdome and save the town folks who live over there. So I am putting James in charge for a short time and he will handle some of the kings duties until I came back."
James eyes widened along with Amber's and Sofia's. "Wha-." Before James could even say anything, Amber interrupted him. "H-Him!? But what about me? I could take care of the kingdom better than he can" Both of them began to go at it only to be stopped by Roland's loud voice.
"Both of you stop. I don't have time to argue, James is the oldest male and he will be in charge until I get back, is that clear?" Both Sofia and Amber replied with a nod as James seemed to gleam with happiness. "I promise to do my best, father" Roland simply smiled and patted James head as he looked at him. "I know you will James. Now I must be leaving along with you're mother so I expect to hear only good things while we are away."
Once Amber finally agreed to James being in charge, she and Sofia began packing a cake and some other snacks for their parents trip making to say all the proper goodbye's as they say their father and mother off. Both King Roland and Queen Miranda continued to wave to there three precious children until they were no longer in view. "Roli did you tell them about Rose?" He shook his head as he held his wife's hand. "I want them to be surprised when we get back" He smiled seeing his Queen nod in agreement with him, both unaware of the danger they might face at the kingdom.
