"I told you no." She crossed her arms her blue and Red eye thinned into a glare at the Elder counsel when she spoke.

She hated this; they ALWAYS tell her that she HAD to get married to strengthen the country! She turned around and started to calmly walk away from the elders burning gazes; she pulled her black dresses hem up to make sure it didn't drag along the stone floor of the 'Hall of Elders'; She ignored the shouts of the Elders as she excited through the beautiful oak wood doors. She brushed her black hair as her eyes gazed dully at the ground, Rose felt a slight chill when she reached the end of her hair that she was pulling behind her ear, the feeling of smooth slick black hair came over a slight bump as her fingers went over the blood stained tips.

She continued to proceed down the hallway that connected the 'Hall of Elders' to her chambers in her palace, the tall windows loomed overhead letting in bright golden light that dimmed when it touched the rock grey that made up the floor. A darker grey carpet, nearly black stretched across from the door where she excited to another door at the end of the hall.

"They will never understand that I have no desire to marry." She murmured to herself.

She paused her steps to turn her face towards the dark sky; it was cloudy as always, with crimson red, electric violet, Burnt Orange and Prussian blue mixed in with the black clouds giving the feeling neutral but enchanting to the eye. This is how it always was in the Dark World, the sky and the rocky and the lack of life, like green trees and bushes gave it its name. Rose's head turned towards the noise of the door at the end of the far hallway that was where her chambers where present. A man walked out into the hallway and closed the door gently; he had a head of dark chocolate brown hair with gently but stunning Egyptian blue coloured eyes. He wore midnight black rob that was pulled inward towards his chest and woven together with True blue hem, and a long cloth that wrapped around his waist and came down to his ankles, like a skirt but he would never admit it, it had patterns of dragons woven into the fabric. His leather boots gently clunked against the ground as he approached her and when he reached her he placed a hand on her shoulder. His name was Doctor Jack. "Your highness, you know they are only thinking what's best for the country, and maybe you should listen to them." He told her as she shrugged off his hand. "I know. But I rather not get married, I can't help but think that is accepting after 3 years he is really gone…" She said in a strained voice. It was true for her, it had been 3 years since that awful night where her father and sister where slain, by that man. Rose gritted her teeth and she reached up her hand to touched her right eye, it was blue unlike her red one, it had a long deep scar running down from her forehead over her eye and another one over top of it along her cheek horizontally. She blinked and cast her eyes down in thought. *~FLASHBACK~* Rose woke up to dull pain in her eye as she lay in the grass of the field her vision blurred, but she only could see blurry images in one eye, she started to sit up onto her knees when she felt it. The burning painful feeling in her right eye, but when she flew up her hand to hold her injured face she felt that there was no eye at all! She let out a silent scream of pain and fell to the earth as dizziness of blood lost and panic engulfed her mind.

"Please stay still Rose." A sweet voice spoke into her ear. It was her sister.

She felt her sister hand, she gently moved it towards her eye, Rose stiffened in natural defence of any person when someone tries to touch there injury. Yuki made a quick choice to just raise Rose's head on her lap, she felt Yuki pull her head up on her lap, her sister moved her hand that was pressing against the place where her eye was. Yuki press her forehead to Rose's and held her hand over Rose's hand that was holding her eye, she began to mutter some words.

"Its not your time to die, you need to learn more to be what father and I where doing. Rose, you must talk to Doctor Jack. Before I leave this world I give you this…"

Rose felt Yuki remove her hand from Rose's empty eye, Rose opened her left eye still very blurry and saw her sister reach over to her right eye, she touched her eye and drew her hand back in front of her face and Rose watched in amazement, Yuki's eye glowed as it started to turn into little blue particles. They twisted out of her eye socket, leaving it empty and hollow. They seemed to dance around Yuki's hand; they twisted towards Rose's empty eye as her sister pointed her finger. She felt burning again but only lasted a moment as calming, sweetening, and pure healing feeling seemed too melted into her eye.

"Sweet dreams…" The calming voice of her sister muttered.

Her world once again went black as she fell asleep.

After the battle was won by her father's warriors they went into the empty plain and found Yuki lying dead beside the sleeping Rose. There king laid near by in some grass. She had admitted of having no memory of what happened to the soldiers, she later was given medical treatment and then she was finally alone with Doctor Jack.

"What were my father and sister doing before they died? I mean what where they doing all this time?"

Her voice echoed in the empty room, Doctor Jack gazed turned back to her and had a look of surprise. She posed the question right after the Elders let about asking what happened, she told them she didn't remember and Doctor Jack shooed them away from the weak girl.

"I don't know what you are talking about." He shrugged as he placed the medicine in his storage place. She let out a low growl and snapped at him.

"Cut the crap! Yuki told me personally to ask you!"

His gaze was dark when he turned to her, he closed his storage door and muttered his voice dark, but Rose had no fear of him.

"So you do remember…"

Then he lost it.

"YOU TOLD THE ELDERS AND EVERYONE YOU HAVE NO MEMORY! YOU LIED! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I…EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED?"

Rose had the same sharpness in her voice but more calm.

"I rather not remember. Answer my question!"

"No, 3 years from now I will tell you. For now heal."

He briskly left the room.

*~END OF FLASHBACK~*

She sighed and proceeded down the hall ignoring the disapproving look Doctor Jack gave her as he released her shoulder and she walked away from him. Rose was ever so grateful when she reached the doors to the palace, she proceed to turn on of the handles when she heard a crash and shouting from inside. The doors flew open, just barely missing her nose when a young man in cream and brown coloured clothing raced through. She watched him for a second and stepped back out of the way as a squad of guards raced through.

"Halt!" the lead guard shouted to the young man who seemed to have infiltrated her palace to seal stuff most likely.

The young man or as she rather called him the thief, continued to race away then stopped abruptly as he realized this hall lead only to the Elders room. He whipped his head around seeming to not understand what he would do next. Rose watched in no interest, but she did anyways, lets see if he will be smart and leap out the open windows where he could land on the stables room and slid down and race towards the unguarded gate.

But just as she thought, he only made this robbery out of the blue as he raced pass the soldiers who seemed to be to stubborn to even reach out and grab him from there bunch, he raced back towards the door where Rose was waiting beside; he did something she also thought was stupid as to run back right where he came from, he noticed her for the first time and she read his unspoken thoughts.

A woman easy hostage she rolled her eyes, when he reached out to grab her she raised her leg in a swift motion and smashed his head into the floor. He crumbled, his face properly smashed into the stone; she reached to pull some hair back over her ear as she turned her gaze towards the shocked guards that where just standing there.

"What are you waiting for? Take him away." She told them in an annoyed voice. She walked into the doors and closed them behind her. Rose continued to walk down the next hallway in more of a hurry, there where dozens of doors on each side of the room, she picked the one that was hers and opened it. When she slowly closed it, the darkness of the unlighted room comforting her, she let out a long sigh and leaned her back on the door sliding down so her legs hit her chest and she wrapped her arms around.

"What a useless day" she muttered into her knees. A knock was heard behind her on her door.
