AN: I'm really sorry I haven't updated. I've had a really bad writer's block lately, and it's probably going to get worse once school starts Monday, so don't expect anything really soon anymore. I'm also really sorry the chapters have been so short. It's just another symptom of the block. Anyways, hope you enjoy.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
A few nights later….
Rosie's POV (dream)
"Papa, are you feeling any better?" I asked my sickly father as I walked to his bed.
"I'm fine mi hija. You know I will have to die at some point though. Whether it's near, or far, no one knows. But when I do, You will have to take the throne, and rule your country." He said.
"Si, papa. I know. But I can't think about loosing you, not after mama died." I said, starting to tear up.
"Mija, I haven't seen you go to the village since I fell ill, please delight in the things you used to. It'll put me to ease, knowing you're happy."
"Major, will you escort my daughter to the village?" He asked.
"Yes, your highness." He said. Major Mason was one of my favorite guards here. He had only been here for maybe a week, but we had spent almost every moment together since then. He wouldn't tell me why he was here though. I looked at all the shops on the streets, and continued to walk until we were interrupted by General Kane. Something about him always made me nervous, and my intuitions we right, because what happened next.
"Hola princessa, Major, you look muy Hermosa today mi princessa, is that a new dress?" He asked.
"What do you want Kane?" Major Mason asked. General Kane's expression suddenly turned from somewhat pleasant, to an almost indescribable look of anger.
"I was going to try to bargain with you, princessa, but this leaves me no choice. Either give up the throne, or I'll kill you!"
"NO!!!!!!!" I yelled at him. At that moment, Major Mason picked me up, and we ran back to the palace as fast as we could. He put me in a helicopter without notice of why. General Kane and the army had just about caught up to us as we lifted off. They were shooting. They broke through the windows, shattering the glass around us, thankfully not hitting us at all, and after I got all the glass off of me, I began to sob.
At that point, I woke up, and I was crying harder then I ever cried before. I was awake, but still dreaming in a way. Just all the horror ran through my mind, and I could not bring myself back to the present. My mind was shut in that dreadful day.
"Rosie, what's wrong?" I heard someone ask.
"C-C-Carter?" I asked. Stuttering, and still crying, so I could barely breathe.
"Yeah, it's me." She said, trying to be as nice as she could manage.
"I think I'm having a night terror, I think that's what it's called at least….." I said slowly. Trying to catch my breath.
"Come on, let's go to the nurse." She said, starting to walk me there.
"No, I need Justin." I said.
"Alright, I'll go get him." She said, sounding rather annoyed.
A few minutes later, she came back with Justin.
"Rosie?" He asked. I continued to sob.
"What's wrong?" He asked. He picked me up, and held me to him, then he sat down on my bed.
"Night terror. I'm locked in my dream." I said, still crying.
"Alex, go get me a bucket of water." He said.
"I'm CARTER. But alright."
"What was it about?" He asked me.
"The day I got taken from my home…" I said quietly, making sure no one could hear.
"I'm so sorry Rosie. I wish I could take your pain away…" Justin said.
Just then Carter came back with the bucket of water.
"Rosie, we need to go outside for this." He said.
"Alright," I said quietly. When we were outside, he poured the bucket of water on top of my head.
"Geez, that's cold…." I said with a shiver. Then I was much more alert then I was, and I could see better. I could actually open my eyes, for one thing.
"Thank you , Justin." I said. I had finally stopped crying.
"It's alright Rosie, I'm here." He said. We went back inside, and he held me. I had my head on his shoulder, and I drifted off to sleep like that, and apparently, so did he, because the next morning, I woke up with a jolt, and we both fell off the bed….
A couple hours later.
Mitchie's POV
"Mitchie wake up, do you know what today is?" I heard a strangely perky voice say. What scared me even more, was that it was Alex. Normally I had to pull her out of bed.
"What???" I asked, still half asleep.
"Today's free range because of the Campfire Jam tonight!" She almost squealed.
"Sweet! Free range rehearsals all day!" Today's gonna be awesome! I got dressed, and then headed out to breakfast with Alex and Carter. When we got to the cafeteria, Rosie and Justin sat with us.
"So Rosie, are you gonna do Campfire Jam tonight?" I asked.
"Yeah. Justin and I have decided to do a duet." She said.
"Really? What song?" Carter asked.
"Well, I've been listening to that band you all like so much, Snow Patrol, and we decided that we'll do 'Set Fire to the Third Bar' Which is the song that they sang with Martha Wainwright." She said.
"Nice." I said.
I was thinking I would do another one of my songs, called "Get Back". Carter had been saying she wanted to do "You Could Be Happy" which was another Snow Patrol song. And, Alex was doing "Magic".
Well, now to get the day started….
AN: Okay, hope you enjoyed. If you have any suggestions at all, I'm very open to them, I'm just saying. Anyways, I'll try to update by next Saturday, if not, I'm extremely sorry.
