Reviews:

PEETAMELLARKLOVER 123: Awe I love koalas … I pet one before! And as for that … I'm sorry. You'll have to read on to see if Char dies! Thanks!

going for the win: A bear? True, they can swim and walk and climb trees! A flying bear will probably terrorize the neighbourhood though, don't you think? A dinosaur?! Girl, your imagination is starting to freak me out! If dinosaurs were back, we'd be screwed. Probably. Thanks! I know … I don't want either of that to happen … Thanks!

Theoneforever: Thanks! Yay! I don't didn't go deaf this time! Here's the update!

Dramalover2000 (3): Your review made me laugh. MILLENIUM BABIES DO RULE! I know what you mean. My little brother is ten years old, and I swear he's part animal and part human. He runs around the house and ugh … little brothers … Here's the update!

Mrs. AspenLeger: Wow! 10/12?! Good job! No one got that high of a score! I'll find something for you to do :) Wow all the girls?! All my friends are Team Maxon. Haha! Okay, sure, your name already tells me everything. Haha.

EruditeAbnegationMockinjay: Thanks!

HorseGalFangirl9: Love ya too! J

ReadLikeYouMeanIt: Sorry buddy. I had to :P Yea, it aggravates me too! Thanks! YAS JUSTIN BEIBER he's an animal … hahahahaha :) Yea, we could ship him off to some crazy Belieber and they'd be the happiest kid alive. What's more, he put shame to my country. Giving him to a Belieber will make a lot of us happy :) And everyone's insane in some way :P

N: New reviewer! Yay! Awe I love baby polar bears! They're so cute!

Happy reading!


•Chapter 14•

"Hello? America?"

"Kamber, I didn't get a call from her."

"I know. I couldn't reach you. I called about half an hour ago, Arabella picked up, and told me that the King and Queen were busy. I tried to tell her that we set up an appointment, but she said that they are declining all meetings right now."

"Okay, we're going to give her a warning. And Kamber, Char's at our place. She's refusing to talk to you right now—"

"Hey, I'm right beside you, ya know," Char cuts in, annoyed.

"—so I'm the messenger. She's okay."

"Oh, good," Kamber's relieved. "How did she get to there?"

"I don't know," America says. "But she's okay. I need to go, now. I have a meeting soon. Bye!" She turns it off.


Later that day, Char asks a nearby maid the directions to the Women's room. The maid leads her to the room. "Thank you!" Char smiles at the woman. She smiles in return but doesn't say anything.

She pushes open the door. Just as she expected, Cassandra is there. "Hey, Cass!" She waves.

"Hey, Char! How's it going?" she greets as she bounds over.

"Not good," she confesses. "I feel out of place. I mean, you're a One and I'm a Five."

"Caste doesn't matter," Cassandra says, "Mother was a Five once. She probably understands, right?" Char still looks unsure. Her sister pats her back. "Just relax, Char."

"Okay … I'll try,"

When Char closes the door, Cass can't shake the feeling off. She looks familiar, although she's never seen her before. Cassie feels a connection, a strong connection, between them, although she's only known her for a day.

She feels like her significant other.


"How are we supposed to break it to them?" America asks.

"Just tell them?" Maxon offers.

"They'll think we're joking."

"True."

"I hate to say this, but should we let Char let them herself? We can just back her up." She suggests.

"Or let the kids find out for themselves."

"Yea, that sounds better."


Cassandra gathers her siblings around the table. "Guys, did you get some kind of strange vibe about the new girl? Not necessary bad, but just a vibe?"

"No, why?"

She shifts her eyes to the doorway. If her parents find out that they're discussing this, they're as good as dead. She normally doesn't do this, but Charmaine was being really strange. Like she was harbouring a big secret. What if she came to the palace to harm her family?"

"Well, I don't know … I feel as if Char is hiding some big secret. Like one that could cost Char her life or something. I don't feel threatened around her, she's been pretty nice, actually."

"And don't you find it strange that she popped up out of nowhere in the middle of the night?" A new voice asks. The siblings jump, startled. Ut they relax once they see who it is. Prince Zachary.

"Zach!" Cass cries. "Don't give us a heart attack! But true, it did seem pretty strange. No cars passed through the gates, though. Only a grocery truck."

"Or the fact that Mom and Dad just let her stay? They normally don't do that."

"Even if she's Uncle Aspen's niece, it doesn't mean she can do whatever we do." Four heads nod in agreement. "She ate breakfast and lunch with us, Mom and Dad are being really nice to her, even nicer than normal, and they're usually just polite to guests! And she even got called into their study! Their study! We barely get to go in ourselves, let alone some girl we never met before!"

"It doesn't really add up, don't you think? I mean, with the …" Spencer's siblings groan. "Spence!" they cry. "Stop! We don't need another scientific explanation for something! Remember what happened last time?" He looks slightly hurt but quickly recovers.

"Hey, hey, hey." Zach cuts in. "Let him say what he has to say. And besides, I'm interested to hearing his theories. I mean, they actually might be legitimate."

"You don't need to speculate," a female voice says. "I'm going to tell you. You may not believe this, but this is the truth. You have to accept it sooner or later. America and Maxon already do." Charmaine walks up to the table.

She takes a deep breath. She hopes her siblings won't freak out or something. Or laugh in amusement, thinking that she is just kidding or pulling a prank on them.

"I am the twin sister of Princess Cassandra."


"Are you sure this is going to work?"

"This has to; they haven't taken down the castes yet. It's time to take matters into our own hands. This cannot fail. But, there is a piece missing. This piece is the most important piece of all."

His assistant, Casey, starts to say something, but is cut off by a beep! from his monitors. The Commander shushes him. "Shh," he says sharply. He surveys his intricately hidden cameras and recorders around the palace. It came from the dining hall. There, he hears it loud and clear. "I am the twin sister of Princess Cassandra."

He turns to Casey. "The last piece just fell into place. Our plan is complete."


READ MESSAGE BELOW:

I mean this from the bottom of my heart. Thank you everyone who gave the time to read, review, follow, and favourite this story! It means so much to me. When I first uploaded the first chapter, I thought that no one would read this story. But I gave it a shot. I'm glad I did. I would've never been able to get this far if it weren't for your support. I have started many stories over the years, but I have only been able to finish one, and that was because it only had 300 words. And that was 3 years ago.

If it weren't for your reviews encouraging me to go on and keep writing, this story would've stopped ages ago. But no, you keep urging me to go on. I really and sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart. Every single one of you. Thank you so much for supporting me, and I hope I can continue to get your support in the future. Virtual hugs and cookies and candy to every single one of you. Thanks so much!
