Maria awakes that day to Finn lightly pushing at her shoulder. She smiles at him and then realizes she didn't wake up before him and get his breakfast ready like she is supposes to. She sits up in bed and apologizes to him for being unprepared. He just laughs and tells her she had a long time so it was ok.

It's true, she tried to break away from the feast a lot last night but everyone wanted to dance with her and say their good byes. Even Quinn pulled her a side and made her promise to 1. Never tell Finn about her and Sam because Sam would be killed for treason and 2. Keep Sam safe for her. It wasn't until the moment did Maria learn that Sam was to come with them on their journey.

She didn't really like it because she didn't trust Blaine and Jesse. But at the same time, she saw a part of Blaine last night that made her want to trust him. She was so mixed up about it all and she was so scared for everyone's life. She wanted to go back to the day she convinced Puck to help her and just make it to where she didn't ask him for his help.

They let her take two dresses with her and the little book she's been storing her memories in. They even gave her a quill and ink. It was very generous of Finn's family since she is just a servant. And even more so that she was riding in a carriage instead of on horseback with the boys.

But then she wishes she was on horseback because apparently she wasn't going to get to ride alone. Jesse was sitting inside the carriage as she stepped in. He had this smile planted on his face that made her feel uneasy.

"My dear, Maria." She hated how he said her name. "We'll have lots of fun on our journey." Maria didn't want to spend any time talking with him so she pretended to sleep. But apparently that wasn't working because about an hour in his foot tapped against hers. "Remember when we were children and you and I would play in the gardens?"

She opened her eyes and looked at him. "No."

"That's why we called you our little flower." Maria narrowed her eyes at him and he laughed. "Still have that feistiness, I can tell. My dearest friend, how I have missed you so. If only you would come back to me."

It was silent after that and everyone rested for a few hours in a small town. Maria was able to get away from everyone; she pulled Sam along with her and told him what Jesse said to her in the carriage.

"Maybe he's telling the truth. Maybe you and him were friends in the past."

"Then why did he and Blaine send me to that man, the one who tried to have me killed?"

Sam shrugged. He couldn't explain it to her and she couldn't explain it to herself. They rejoined the group; she kept her distances from the two bounty hunters. She didn't want to get back inside the carriage when everyone was ready to leave but thankfully it wasn't Jesse she was sharing her time with. It was Finn. He told her that everyone was going to take turns watching over her.

They sat close together, she laying back into him, his arms around her. Occasionally they'd re-positioned themselves so they could just sit there and kiss. Eventually she fell asleep in his arms.

She had a very vivid dream of herself as a child playing in a field of flowers; two boys around her age were with her. They were all laughing and having fun. She sees herself pick two roses off of a bush and hands each of the boys one. "We'll be friends forever, right?" The boys agree with her and then she wakes up. Finn is still asleep but she can hear the others coming closer to the door. She panics a little and jumps over to the other seat, across from Finn. She rests a little and pretends to be asleep as well just in time for the door to be pulled open by someone.

She hears Finn talking ad then Puck. It's night fall and no one will be traveling any further for the night. Everyone is being put up into some tavern inn. Maria goes to her room and just tries to get to sleep, but all she can think about is her dream. Was it real or did her mind just make it up because of what Jesse said? It felt real.

She had another dream that night, it was a younger version of herself and she was sitting in the room where she keeps seeing all the deaths. But now it's all nice and fancy and everyone seems happy. The two boys are there again, she sneaks off with them; apparently they weren't invited to the party.

"This better be good." She hears one of them say.

"Calm down, Jesse. Santana and I found it earlier."

She looks back at Jesse and nods. "It's so amazing."

They sneak into a small, hidden door behind a shelf in the library. She and Blaine lead Jesse down some dark stairs, her dress catching against raised pieces of wood. "Santana, if your mom or dad finds out we're all hanging out again our families will have to resort to begging in the streets again."

"Stop making loud noises and they won't find out."

They get to where they were going and Blaine sets the small torch he was carrying down into a bowl. Once he lifts it the whole room is surrounded by the flickering light of the flame. Statues stand all over the room along with mass amounts of treasures. The three children look around and finally Jesse's eyes lands on his two friends. "What is this place?"

"It's called the King's Tomb. I've heard my dad speak out if before. He said this is where you remember past leaders. But whenever I asked him where it was he said it was fake; but Blaine and I found it."

"My dearest flower, you never cease to amaze me."

Maria wakes up with a loud gasp. She rubs her eyes and thinks about exactly what this means. She gets dressed and leaves her room, going down to the tavern area, the men are all still awake, talking, drinking, eye balling each other.

"Jesse, Blaine…may I have a word." They nod but don't move. "In private."

They say goodbye to the Knights, Finn stands up like he's planning on coming with them to make sure she's ok but she waves him off. They leave the area, making sure they are in a place where no one will hear them.

"Best friends forever, huh?" She begins. "Why are you trying to deliver me to my death?"

"Aw, she remembers now."

"My little flower," Blaine begins. "We are not doing such a thing."

"The hooded man, he wants me dead."

They both look a little shocked. "What? No. He wants to restore you to your rightful throne. That's why he hired us because he knew we'd be able to find you."

She doesn't know why but she believes them. The looks on their faces just tells her they thought that were doing good. "That man told me I was going to ruin things for him and he had me sent to the woods to be executed. Lady Brittany's guard saved me." They both look heart broken. "Who is the hooded man?"

"We don't know. He said if his identity is known everyone will be harmed. Santana, we swear we didn't know. We would never do anything to harm you."

"Tell me about the night you found me."

"We had been tracking you for years…" Jesse begins. "We were there the night your family was killed and we saw your father push you down into the secret hatch. We knew it led it the King's Tomb so we used the secret passage way in the library. We helped you get out of the palace and hid you in the woods. We only went back to see if we could save anyone else. By the time we came back you were gone."

"But we knew those murders didn't find you. They were all dead by the time we got back after we hid you."

"So, Blaine and I took an oath to find you. And we kept hearing of sightings, a lot were fake leads but a few were real. You seemed to be scared of everyone and whenever we got close to you, you vanished. One day a man in a hood came to us and told us you were living in a cave. We went to that cave and found you."

"You didn't recognize us and you ran away, fell and hit your head. We took you to a healer."

"We only left for an hour, when we got back she was screaming, saying some man stabbed her and was going after you. But when we got to the back where you were hiding, you were alone and fighting us. We pulled you into the carriage and took you to the hooded man."

"Only because he said he had something that would prove who you really were."

"But then his guards told us we were scaring you so we left, thinking you'd be safe. Next thing we know he said you climbed out a window and ran away. And that we had to find you again."

"So we did."

Santana shook her head. "He lied to you." She looked around the corner and saw Finn, Puck and Sam sitting at the table together. "We can't put them in danger. We need to get rid of them and then we need to run. Somewhere no one can find us."
