Just when Roderich dropped me off the Héderváry Manor. The Hungarian tackled me into a hug.
"I am so glad that Roddy found you before it is too late." She breathed as she stroked my fake (h/c) hair. Once the jade-eyed girl pulled away from me, an irritated Italian voice lashed out at me.
"Stupid, ragazza!" The brown haired Italia male said behind back. "You have no idea how worried sick we were when you ran off like that! What would happen if they recognized you as one of the thieves with a large bounty on your head? You were lucky to be saved by the potato family, just in time!" He huffed and he was soon followed by his auburn haired younger sister
"But me fratello, maybe the cause of her rush was because she's worrying about her family." Feliciana suggested. Taking the excuse, Lovino nodded.
"Let us just get you ready to go home before your mother worries about you." I nodded. I felt a bit light headed, probably because of the damned corset.
When I arrived at my friend's room. I tossed off the wig and ruffled my short hair, because of the object, it made my head itch. I wiped away the make up then struggled on the strings of my dress. I completely forgot that Eliza was with me and she helped me loosen the cloths. I collapsed on her bed and breath the sweet air that was restraint by the mentioned garment. She studied me while she sat on one of the chairs. After being satisfied with the amount of oxygen I have consumed, I changed back to my old but comfortable clothes.
"Tell me, what is the real reason you left in a rush?" She asked with a serious face.
I looked at her with a puzzled face. "I was homesick and I can not breathe because of the wretched garments." I partly lied.
"Or was it because you knew that Prince Arthur, whom you fancy, is soon to be bethroted?" The brunette noble questioned me. I stood up straight and walked out of her as if the question was not asked.
Just when I was halfway down the stairs I heard her call out.
"Well do you?"
"I do not know what you're talking about..." I muttered but loud enough for her to hear it. I ran for the exit before she could interrogate me more.I finally felt England's cold outside air.
"(Name)! Do you!" She called.
"No! and the name is (M/N) now!" I called with a lower version of my voice to make my gender more convincing.
Once I got home my family greeted me warmly. I told them what happened except for the time that I knew that the prince is soon to be engaged and I left the palace early making my friends worry.
Luckily I hid some of the palace's food and gave it to them. They both enjoyed it they say "Especially the roast beef." Maria said. But then someone knocked on our door.
I opened it to see the palace guards. "There you are." he smirked. "Arrest the boy and boy his family to a chair." He ordered. The troupe bound my hands behind my back. The young girl screamed while she was carried and roughly dropped down a chair.
"(M/N) Carriedo, we finally caught you. So this is where you hide with your bastard brother. Not too shabby."
"How do you know me, and where I live?" I growled.
"I saw your wicked little face the day your brother died. We all vowed to remember it to not let another one escape. We remembered your face, wearing those dresses. Did you really think we would be fooled by a useless trick like that? What was your business there? Steal the Kirkland's riches like the little rat you are?" He pulled my hair until I was eye to eye with him.
"It's none of your business." Then a stinging pain was felt on my cheek. I was slapped hard enough to make my nose bleed.
"Alright. But are you not wondering how we found you?" He said with a face I wanted to punch so hard that he can see the king's crown in the sky. "Well, thanks to you shouting your name to one of the nobles in the dead of the night. We knew that is was you. We could not let that pass." he dropped me roughly and I was on my knees
"To pay for you and your brother's crimes, you shall be sentenced to imprisonment until hanged " He seemed to love the word hangedbecause of his tone of his voice with the mentioned word.
"And what of my family?" I growled.
"You'll see" He smirked.
"Toss the criminal to the carriage and don't forget to lock the door. Did you bound the two women tightly? Good." They all exited with me half dragged half carried to the carriage and I was tossed. "What? What are you doing? No!" I saw the captain of the guards taking out lamp and broke it to were the fire can easily get caught.
The view I was now seeing with my own horror filled eyes...
were the sight of my family and house I grew up being devoured by orange, yellow and white hot flames.
You can kill me now. Yes I'm a cruel person hunt me down. Mentally crying now. But I swear this will be the last sad character death I swear.
BTW: I'm Back Betches! It took me a while to finish this because of school coming soon, writer's block and I went to the province. The hotel we stayed didn't have any internet so I can't access this. Thank goodness I had my notebook there.
