Lucy slowly opened her eyes, trying to adjust to the light. "Miss Lucy is waking up." She heard multiple of people shouting back and forth. Some voices she recognised some she has never heard. 'Voices I've never heard…That must mean the King has let me out the castle' she sat up in excitement, however she failed to sit up without collapsing out on the bed again. She was exhausted. "Miss Lucy I wouldn't sit up for a while, you are very low on energy." The people around her looked at each other. Then a woman gasped as she looked over at Lucy. Lucy looked to the place where the woman was looking… she had a bruise the shape of a hand on her right arm.
"Lucy," Lucy looked up towards the voice she knew, it was none other than Mr. Capricorn, "When did you get this?" he gently held her arm in his hand. His eyes turned dark. Lucy couldn't find the right answer to his question. The only thing that happened where someone has grabbed her arm was in that dream? No a vision? No it has to be a memory. Was her past finally coming back to her?
Lucy can only recollect the past 10 years; where she has been locked in this castle until her guardian signs her away to another man. But she can't remember a thing before the age of 8… However when she had tried to ask someone about it they would just walk past her and ignore her, even when she asked Mr. Capricorn he said he was sorry and had to sort something out…
"I-I don't know Mr. Capricorn..." She pulled her arm from his hand and inspected it. It was defiantly new but no one has grabbed her arm. It could have been while she was passed out, she thought. She looked back up to Capricorn; he was holding a worried look. 'He must know, he looks like he knows why I have it'
"I think Miss Lucy needs her rest now she is awake. So could everyone leave her to rest!" He ordered. No one disregarded his word and everyone who was once running around worriedly for her was now running out the door at the end of the room, to get back to doing what they are paid to do before he came down. Once everyone had left the room, Capricorn walked over and shut the door and walked back to her. "Miss Lucy there is something I need to tell you." He spoke calmly but seriously.
"What do you mean Mr. Capricorn?" She asked giving him the same look back but with a hint of worry with it. He softened his look.
"You have to promise you won't scream or try to run. No harm will come to you." Lucy nodded as the only response. "Miss Lucy there is no need for you to call me Mr. Capricorn because…" there was a flash of light that filled the room; it gave of the sense of power that drawled Lucy towards him. If she wasn't in the state she was in, she would have walked over to the source. However what stood in front of her eyes was not the thing she was expecting.
