Summary: Everyone was so interested in learning Andros's secret past, but what if someone else on their team has a secret past they never want to talk about?
Secret Pasts
Chapter 1: Tornax
The room was comfortable and the bed was soft. A young child lay in her bed, hoping for the right moment when she would be able to go home. She reached out and she ran her fingers over the golden trim on the comforter. "Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket, never let it fade away. Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket, save it for a rainy day…" she sang quietly to herself. Tears fell down her face and she buried her head into the pillow. "I want to go home," she whimpered. She drew her knees up to her chest. "I want my mom and dad," she added. She looked up when the door opened and two soldiers stood there.
"You're coming with us," one of them informed.
They walked over and grabbed her arms. "NO! LET ME GO! I WANT TO GO HOME!" She screamed. They practically dragged her down the hall to another room.
The young girl struggled as hard as she could and the two soldiers strapped her arms and legs to the table. She let out sobs and she heard a few clanking sounds and then a man stepped forward. "Just hold still and this will go as painless as possible," he informed. He lifted her shirt up and he held up some sort of contraption. She tried moving away as he set it on her right side, on her rib cage, and pushed a few buttons. She felt a burning sensation go through her side and she screamed. "There, done," he informed. She looked down at her side. She saw that he had branded her.
On her side was the design of two circles, one inside each other, and in the smallest circle was a star.
"Take her back to her room, I'll have one of the other girls bring her something to eat," he informed. The soldiers nodded.
"Yes, my king," the soldiers answered.
They took the straps off her arms and legs and took her back to the room.
Once she was back in her room, she ran towards the door and started banging on it. "LET ME GO! I WANT TO GO HOME!" She shouted as she banged on the door. After a few minutes, she went back towards the bed, dragging her feet on the way. She sat on the bed with her knees drawn to her chest when the door opened.
"I brought you some food if you're hungry," the girl informed.
"I'm not hungry," she muttered.
The servant girl then set some clothes on the bed. "You might want to put these on too," she added. The girl stared at the clothes.
"I want to go home," she answered.
The servant girl sighed. "You'll like it here. King Armando is a really nice guy, the only thing that he does that's really mean is branding," she informed. The girl stared at the clothes on the bed. "I'm Rella, I'll help you out," the servant girl added. The girl looked at Rella.
"I'm Ashley," she answered.
