Chapter 6: A Letter to Alex

Previously

She tied the paper to owls foot and sent it away… with all hopes that it reaches her Alex…

========..

Dear Lexy,

I know this isn't a good time for letters and stuff but I just wanted to tell you that I'm sorry, I'm sorry for all this. I really did love you, I still love you and I'll love you forever and I hope you forgive me. As you are reading this letter, I'm probably already doing the craziest thing ever. I'm coming for you, I'm coming to get you and I'm never letting go, I won't let anyone hurt you, I'll protect you with everything I have. While I'm probably kicking some asses on my way to you right now, I want to explain something to you, I know you're mad, but please hear me out or read me out?… well, you get the point.
The original plan was for me to hook up with you and then they'd capture you, and I guess that's what happened, but that's not the point. I just want to say, that I actually fell in love with you. I felt that I could be myself around you. I knew you just for a while but I felt like I knew you for centuries and I felt like we were 2 pieces of a puzzle, perfectly fit together. I dunno if what I'm saying makes any sense but please try to understand, I never meant to hurt you and I will be coming for you. I love you, Lexy. Always have, always will.

Forgive me,
Mitchie

As soon as Alex finished reading the last words of the letter, the cell door was pushed open but instead of Mitchie being there for rescue, she was dragged by 2 Fire Guards and thrown into the cell, her lifeless body fell next to Alex's feet. "The fire lord's own daughter… who would've thought" the first guard said as they started to walk out of the cell. "It was inevitable, she's not even his real daughter" the second guard chuckled.

"Mitchie!" Alex yelled as she dropped down to hold the fragile girl in her arms. "I… I hope… You… Forgive me" Mitchie barely breathed out. "shhhh…" said Alex as she gently put her finger on Mitchie's lips " Don't speak… Save your strength".

Alex then moved Mitchie so that she was resting on her chest but as Alex moved her, she hissed in pain. Alex then lifted Mitchie's shirt and was surprised by the fresh wounds on her back. She lightly traced her fingers on the wounds made by the whip. "I was… lashed" Mitchie whimpered "Shane saw me… writing… and that owl… he… he told father and…".

"Mitchie, please don't talk… save your energy… please" Alex said with tears in her eyes, she held Mitchie and pulled her close then kissed her on the head. "I'm sorry, Mitch… I'm sorry I doubted you… I forgive you… Mitch I love you".

"Ehm.." Jason cleared his throat.

"Oh… yeah… Mom this is Mitchie and I love her… and I'm sorry but we have to tend to her, I'll introduce you guys properly when we get out of this" Alex said pleading with her mother. "Alex, you are the controller of water, your mother was queen of the water tribes and you take after her. Your powers are stronger which allows you to conjure water even if there's no water body next to you" said Alex's mom.

Alex spent the next 2 hours cleaning Mitchie's wounds as Jason summoned medicinal leaves and placed them on Mitchie to heal her faster (A/N: Jason is an earth controller… you know, plants and trees and soil and all that) .

Mitchie then rested her head on Alex's lap and fell asleep.

Earlier that day (A/N: while Alex was reading the letter.. what happened with Mitchie)

Mitchie's POV (A/N: I'm kinda having trouble writing in Narrator's POV hehe )

"Go… go to Alex" I told the owl as it flew out my window. I really hope that letter reaches Alex in time.

Now, let's kick some butt.

As I walked out the door of my room, I was greeted by my brother, Shane, and 6 armed guards pointing their spears at me. "What's going on, Shane?" I ask in a stern voice. "I saw you, and the snow owl… I know your plans and I told father… seize her, boys" He said as the 6 guards forwarded towards me trying to hold me. 'I'm not going down easily' I thought as I started to hit them with my fire balls. I took 3 down but the other 2 hit me from the back and I feel. I was captured and dragged to the throne room where my father stayed.

The guards threw me in front of my father's throne. "Do you know what I hate more than traitors?" He said walking in a circle around me. "Ungrateful traitors".

Shane then spoke "Don't you think we should punish her, father?".

"Indeed, my son. We should" my father said as he crouched next to me, grabbing me by my hair. "You are no daughter of mine… Your real parents didn't want you, so I took you in, raised you as my own and this is what I get for that? You shall have no mercy on you, and your screams of pain would be music to my ears" He gritted his teeth as he whispered in my ear. Then he threw me to the other side as 2 guards caught me then pinned me face down on the table, I then felt hands lifting my shirt up and after that, the sound of the whip cracking my back. I felt a sting that burned like fire on my skin. One after the other, blow after blow, I started to feel numb, I didn't scream, I won't give him the satisfaction of hearing me scream. "SCREAM IN PAIN!" He yelled but I refused to do so. Silent tears running down my face was all he got.

After the 100th or something blow, my father finally got tired and ordered his men to throw me in the cell "Throw her in the cell with the Water princess, no food or water".

I was then dragged to the cell where Alex lies. I saw a glimpse of her as the guards opened the cell door and threw me at her feet. "The fire lord's own daughter… who would've thought" the first guard said as they started to walk out of the cell. "It was inevitable, she's not even his real daughter" the second guard chuckled.

Alex ran to me and held me in her arms. That face, that beautiful face which once was so bright and happy, now looks so sad and it's all because of me. " I… I hope… You… Forgive me" I barely breathed out. My back was so wounded that even breathing was painful. I know that doesn't connect but it just hurt so bad.

Alex moved me a bit more so that I was leaning on her chest, but as she moved me I hissed from the pain, she then lifted my shirt and saw the damage they had done to me. She lightly traced her fingers on the wounds made by the whip. "I was… lashed" I whimpered "Shane saw me… writing… and that owl… he… he told father and…".

"Mitchie, please don't talk… save your energy… please" She said with tears in her eyes, she held me and pulled me close then kissed me on the head. "I'm sorry, Mitch… I'm sorry I doubted you… I forgive you… Mitch I love you". Hearing those words from her, made my heart at ease.

I then fainted and I didn't feel anything around me till I woke up in the morning, covered in leaves and resting on Alex's lap. At that moment, I felt safe… But until when?
