Elena was fast asleep giving a little snore tired from the day she had, the room was left only the echos of Alexzander stamping away at important documents, he looks towards the clock only 2 hours have went by leaving 6 left being stuck in the room, Alexzander leans back rubbing his neck getting stiff from just sitting there, opening the desk drawer to put back the stamp a picture lays on the bottom. The picture was torn in half the picture showed Alexzander himself young smiling holding a woman's hand close to him, his short blond hair flowing in the spring weather small cursive writing could be seen, the words cut off "wish a happy lov...", Alexzander could fell pain rising but went went away when felling a small tug on his robe brought to his attention, turning his head to the direction of who was pulling at his robe was Borgan standing there with tired eyes. "What's the matter Borgan can't sleep?" Alexzander asked lifting him up taking the blanket he had around the child, Borgan set his head down on Alexzander's shoulder mumbling a few words, "what was that?" Alexzander couldn't hear the mumbling of Borgan's words, "Elena was squishing me..." Borgan yawns going back to sleep as Alexzander covered his face trying not to laugh, getting comfortable Alexzander leans back fixing the blanket on Borgan, then setting his legs on the desk he looks back at the picture once more. Placing the picture back into the drawer closing it shut reaching for a old book, Alexzander opens on the saved page, the title reads "the days of kings" trying to catch up on some old political reading, reading away after what seem like hours his eyes became heavy head nodding after a few minutes go by Alexzander was out cold, the book slips out of his hand an into the floor with a little thud.
Elena was awoken to a god awful loud ringing noise jumping up from the bed, an crawling to the end pulling the curtains open trying to look for what ever was making that noise, seeing Alexzander with Borgan on the ground the chair flipped over, Alexzander was covering Borgan's head trying to block the noise seeing Borgan getting really upset. Standing up from the ground Alexzander watched the door as the clock let's go of a thin wire, the rushing of wire being pulled was heard Elena slides off the bed next to Alexzander, he hands Borgan to Elena, taking Borgan Elena watched Alexzander who step towards the door, by the time Alexzander hands Borgan away an taking the step the door was ripped off it's hinges, Alexzander turns back shielding the two from the flying wood. Elena covers Borgan with her body Borgan was shivering gripping on Elena for dear life, Alexzander looks back seeing that his door was broken now, Elena was holding Alexzander's arm as both stands up now facing the door, jumping when Borgan begins to cry holding Elena's shirt tightly, tears an snot falling from his face Elena starts to wipe away the tears, holding him close placing a hand on his head comforting him with a motherly love. Alexzander let's go heading towards now demolished door that was split in half, Borgan's cry's settle down as Elena watched wondering on what to do now, hearing his servants ant maids coming to his aid Alexzander looks at the end of the hallway seeing his servants and maids standing there with worry looks, motioning Elena to come out the room Alexzander placed his hand on Elena's back making sure she won't fall with Borgan in her arms, a maid walks over to see if they we're alright as Alexzander was talking with a servant, Elena looks back seeing Alexzander talking she could see stress buildup, Alexzander rubs his face tired an not knowing what to do a older servant was trying to help him, Elena's attention was brought to the maid who was tugging wanting Elena to follow her. walk away down the halls to a off branched off room away from the accident, Borgan was rubbing his face trying to make the tears stop Elena was rubbing his back soothing him, standing there as she paces trying to calm Borgan Elena realizing she never got to apologize to Alexzander, wanting to go back but was stopped when the room door open Jake was there with Isabel, both running over hugging her "wooo... guys what's wrong, I was only gone for the night did something happened?" Elena asked as she placed a hand on Isabel's head.
Isabel leans away "we heard the noise of the door everyone ran to go see, that's when we over heard you there when it happen an thought you got hurt, so we ran to go see" Elena smiles hugging her sister as Jake was worried that something happened as well, he grown attached to Elena felling a loving adult figure to him. Elena looks up as the door opens up again as Alexzander walks through, "Smirah has made breakfast for everyone why don't you three head that way," Jake takes a hold of Borgan as the three children walk out the door, leaving both Alexzander and Elena behind Alexzander walks over Elena was rubbing her upper arm nervously, but before Elena can apologize about hitting him but Alexzander did his apology first "I'm sorry" was the only thing he could say Elena looks at him trying to see if he's lying, but was meet with only still dark blue eyes. Watching him hold out his hand slowly she takes hold of his large ruff hand, both of her hands holding on to the single out stretch hand "I should have known that as equal royals, that even we have bad days an shouldn't push our stress on others," Elena sighs gripping his hands "It's not that hard to ask for help I don't see why not, you treat the people like nothing but the way you give your friends so much respect, but when it come to me you treat me as nothing but negativity" Alexzander closed his hands on top of Elena's, "if it was that simple I could but it's going to be far from easy now," Alexzander says as he sees Elena getting upset now gripping at his hand hard, "an why is that? Uh are still upset that I hit you well I'm sorry I'm not perfect nether is you," Elena says now shoving Alexzander's hand away from her, taking his hand back placing his index finger an thumb to her chin so she could look at him, "I blacklisted you're country" was the only thing Alexzander could say as Elena shoves him away leaving him in the room slamming the door causing the force to swing back open, Alexzander rubs his head thinking if it was a good thing to tell her what he did known it would cause this, he sat down in a chair looking at his hand that Elena was holding just not to long ago.
Elena ran pass everyone as they trying to stop her asking if everything was alright, heading for the front door Elena didn't even want to be in same palace with Alexzander, after what he said blacklisted how the hell did he blacklisted her country, yanking a coat off the rack causing it to fall to the ground not really caring, as a maid try's to catch it but brakes when hitting the ground Elena slammed the door shut, the maid jumps back holding now the broken rack with the coats an jackets all over the floor, the blizzard had stopped for now piles of snow we're placed around the grounds, the path Elena was taking was very slick trying not to fall as her socks being to become wet, as her feet begin to freeze form the now ice path walking pass the gate. Elena could see people who was out to day trying to get the snow off their roofs before it became a problem for them, she shivering at each steps she takes thinking of the only place she knows she heads for the inn, the only place that is open no matter what time shoving the door open locals turns to see who was coming in, "princess Elena?, what are you doing out here" a cool calm voice asked her. looking over see to was talking LIarm was there holding a warm cup Elena rapped her arms around herself, trying to keep warm Elena heads for a table sitting down LIarm places his cup in front of her to take. Sitting there thinking on what Alexzander had said what a jerk Elena though, Elena looks into the black liquid that was in the cup pulling towards her lips, she felt a hand on her shoulder turning to see who it was Mylene was standing there, she had on a look of worry in her eyes "you all right had another fight?", Mylene sat down next to her as she sips away at the drink she was given. Putting down the cup LIarm shows up sitting next to Elena an across Mylene, "yeah, we did saying that he blacklisted my country" Elena says as she slumps down, "that's it" Mylene asked as Elena looks on with astonishment "he blacklisted my country Mylene, know as there's no way I can make deals with country's that is connected with Valisia," Mylene leans back both arms over the top of the chair as she folds over her leg on her knee, "oh I know what you're saying but that's a normal tactic he would use on royals, but telling you now that's no something he normally do," Mylene says a waiter placed down a tray of food taking the fork an knife she was given.
Without a word Elena slams her hand down on the table causing everything to rattle, LIarm put a hand on his cup calmly as Mylene just looks at her still chewing at her food that was in mouth "Alexzander is been nothing but unkindly, harsh, and cold he's been nothing but string me along, thinking maybe we could at least be friends but all I go is just lies" Mylene finishes what was she eating "don't forget strict," LIarm pipes up as well "an fussy he does complain a lot lately quite more annoying than what usual you do Mylene," Elena looks at them as they bicker at each other LIarm unfazed as Mylene points her knife at him. "Is there anything good about him at all, is there something I'm missing about him" Elena asked both looking her way then one another, "well" Mylene says "he's accepting, honest, devoted to his country an is there anything that you can think of," Elena thinks for a bit "he's fair when he wants to be I don't see why this has to do with anything he has done to me?," LIarm folds his hands down on his lap "as I can see he's trying to make friends with you but being on the safe side," Elena frowns an folds her arms over her chest "it's not like I'm causing a over take on his kingdom at all." Mylene and LIarm looks at each giving a look showing Elena she's wasn't far off, "wait that did happen when?" Elena asked now instead as the two really didn't want to talk about it, "well let's just say he was in love as a typical man could be, an let's just say the girl wasn't the type to you know how do I put it" Mylene was fumbling to find the right words, LIarm just beats her to it though "she wasn't completely committed to him, he meet her through royal meetings as such, so he off putting when it comes to current females royals, an when getting married came into place she never told him that she had a problem of sleeping around," Elena leans away from LIarm. "Is that true is that why he doesn't want to get to know me at all," Mylene leans forward placing her arm on the table "actually you have been doing things that he thought was going as planed," Elena leans back when Mylene was getting a little to close "an how is that?" Mylene scratches her head "we'll we thought you would just stay home but that didn't work, then thought you wouldn't do anything but just sit if he keeps you busy an away from everyone, that definitely didn't work oh an try's to see if you we're into fashion or some crap," Elena points at her "ah ha!, I knew it he was trying to get my attention away not set on the peace treaty," Mylene nods in agreement "but the maids we're the one the ones that gave him the idea though."
Elena looks hurt she really thought she was getting along with everyone in the palace," I thought I was getting along with everyone" Mylene leans back, "oh yes no one I'm mean no one in the palace wanted get to know you, then you started kicking Alexzander to the curb that caused him to light up a bit on everything." LIarm takes Mylene nearly unfinished food an ate from it "so because he told your country was blacklisted now means he's warming up to you, giving him a little chance won't hurt won't it hey maybe after all this you will have a out standing political relationship like no other," Mylene says opening her arms wide with great excitement in her face, Elena gives her a nervous smile "your hoping that doing such a thing will help, what ever happened to the girl?" Mylene shrugs "no one knows after she was placed on her home ship no one has ever seen her to this day," Elena thinks for a moment she was Alexzander's best friend after all an LIarm was trust worthy of now, still kind of mad that they tried to get her attention away making her feel kind of stupid, smiling to herself that she was making progress on her mission here. Thinking some more before it was short lived the inn's door slams open, looking behind her seeing a man leaning on the door frame breathing heavily, his clothes all messy his hat sliding off "D-dragon on the-e loose..." before hitting the ground, standing up Mylene heads over the man LIarm walks over Elena follows worried, that the man was in pain as they lifts him up "the dragon i-is"
"Is what?," Mylene asked as she holds him up trying to keep him up.
"A-a dragon wild in the ship yard came in out of no were, destroyed one of the ships sailors trying to keep it at bay," the man say as he passes out Mylene hands over the limp man to a local, "welp this is going to be something hey Elena" Mylene turns to get her attention, Elena was kind of sketchy on what Mylene was going to ask "you want to see do as Knights, knowing that you don't want to go back right now." Elena nods a yes at Mylene as the woman claps her hands together, "alright get some clothes an will get ready to go" Mylene says as she walks over to stash off clothes near the bar, tossing them at Elena "these at mine so they won't fit perfectly sorry," Elena catches it "thanks." Mylene walks away as LIarm was helping the limp man in a chair, as Elena hurries to get change to help them with the problem, after they all got everything situated heading to the shipyard, Elena hears yelling an demands all around then a bloody curtailing roar, quick on their feet Mylene stops as Elena stops as well LIarm hurries to some fallen men. A black dragon 3x the size of the dragons Elena normal saw here, it had long horns some curling as other pointed chains wrapped around its neck, as it tugs away trying to get loose as sailors rapped more on the wings an legs, causing it to stumble down as it roars again Elena watched never has she seen such a dragon.
