A/N: Merle figures out a way to remember an important piece of the puzzle. The Dream sequences are in green!

"Hhhhhhmmmmmmmm…" Merle thought. She didn't know what to do. Unfortunately for her, Gabriella was in the next room. Complaining. Merle was wondering if Gabriella could ever stop complaining. 'ARGH!' She thought, 'Shut-up shut-up

shut-up!' Merle went over to her bed picked up a cushion and put it over her head. A lame attempt to muffle the sound of Gabriella's complaining. 'ARGH CAN'T YOU BE QUIET?!' She screamed in her head. She went out of her room and walked into Gabriella's.

"Gabriella?" Merle said in a fake cheery voice. 'I can't believe I'm going to do this!'

"Oh…um…kitty girl whatsoever…How are you?" Gabriella said with an edge to her voice. Merle wanted to leap onto Gabriella and kill her with her claws.

"My names Merle." She said with a glare.

"Merrill?"

"Merle!"

"Whatever…Now what station are you again?"

"Huh?"

"You know, like Van's a king, the one girl's a maid, the one guy is a guard, and the people outside of my window this moment are peasants…"

"Oh."

"Well…what are you again?"

"Van's advisor." Merle still had the glare on her face.

"Yes, yes…now wouldn't that mean that I'm higher than you in court?"

"Yes…"

"So you can't boss me around correct?"

'Wanna bet?' "No."

"So that means…I can call you what the damn I want to call you…got that?" Merle narrowed her eyes even more making them appear to be slits.

"Good! Now that we have that cleared up!" 'What a bitch!' Merle thought. "Let's get to the point my you came into my room without me wanting you to hhhhhmmmmm?"

"All right…I thought I should show you the stables, I believe that, as a guest you should get a good look at the lake… 'God, I sound sick!' to, to…show you a point of Fanailia's beauty!" 'Damn, that is so lame…but then again Gabriella is kind of dense…'

"Wonderful idea! Do you know that I was the fastest horseback rider, woman anyway, to ride a horse? Oh and I also got…" Gabriella kept on talking about things but Merle wasn't paying attention. She just rolled her eyes and shut the door behind her.

***************

"Oh, Van! Not that!" Hitomi said.

"Why not this?! I like this! My advisers like this! Why not this?" Van argued.

"Oh Van…It doesn't show…hhhhhhmmmmmmm…YOU!"

"If I wear it, it will show ME wearing it!"

"You are NOT wearing this!" Suddenly there was a knock at the door.

"Shall we ask who's at the door about this?" Van said picking up the green shirt. He and Hitomi went to the door and outside of it stood a steaming Gabriella.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

~ Graos (Where Gabriella is from!) ~

"Darling?" The king said.

"Hmm? Oh hello!"

"What are you doing so late tonight?"

"Gabriella's wedding! What else would I be doing?"

"I don't know…don't be to worried about her you know? I think, from what men have been acting around the castle, he might even pay for the wedding!" His wife snorted. 'She acts like papa what a shock! Gabriella was always daddy's girl, I don't remember once him having any sense. Unfortunately he passed it down to his daughter thinking if you want something, do whatever you can to get it. They both act like anybody will their bidding! ::sigh:: neither of them have a true clue…' The king had already left the room to get something from the kitchens to eat. The queen took off her octagon glasses and cried into her hands.

~ Fanailia ~ Van's Room ~

"Oh my…Who did this to you?!" Hitomi said. Gabriella was soaked from head to toe and smelled like fish. Hitomi almost felt sorry for Gabriella. Almost. Van however was trying to keep from laughing. It's not everyday you get to see an outraged bitch of a princess get soaked from head to toe from pond water.

"Who did this? WHO DID THIS!?" Gabriella gasped. She started looking like she couldn't breathe. Merle lightly walked into the doorway by Gabriella grinning evilly. When Gabriella looked down by Merle and saw that she was enjoying the scene she immediately pointed down to Merle who got a fake look on her face of surprise.

"Um…why don't you go to your r-room Merle…We'll get back to this later…" Merle bowed her head lightly to Van and…pranced away. Gabriella headed to leave when Hitomi stopped her.

"Gabriella?"

"Yes?" Gabriella said with an edge to her voice.

"Do you like this shirt on Van?" Said Hitomi. She lifted the shirt higher so that it was easier to see.

"I think it would look great on him!" She then huffed over to her room in there she remembered she just talked face to face with a 'peasant'. Hitomi walked back to Van with the shirt.

"Still want to wear it?" She said. Van leaped to the other side of the room to get away from the green shirt.

~ Merle's Room ~

Let's see here. Merle went into her room and started looking through the drawers of her dresser. She put her hand in the very back and grasped a small velvet bag. Huh? I don't remember even having a bag like this! Merle pulled it out and looked at it. It was a maroon type color and had small green string holing it together. She went over to her bed. She sat down and pulled the string from the pouch. Small silver dust started to flow around her room making her fall back into her bed soundly asleep.

~ Merle's Dream ~

It was night. Merle didn't have a clue to where she was. All she knew was that she was lost. She tried to run but couldn't! Whenever she tried, she felt like she was being pulled back. She shut her eyes but it didn't do anything. She could still see everything that was going on around her. She decided to look behind her. The only part around her that she didn't see. People around her were screaming. It hurt her ears but she couldn't put her hands up to them, to drain the sound. When she looked behind her, she saw an old women weeping. She went over to ask if the woman was all right. But when she tried to talk, nothing came out. The woman stood up and went right through Merle. Merle again looked at her hands. What's wrong with me? She thought. Nothing was right. This couldn't be right. Suddenly everything went dark. Merle looked around. Her eyes seemed to already be adjusted to the darkness very quickly. Suddenly the lights flashed on again. She looked over her new surroundings. She was in a small room. A study. At the desk, the same woman that Merle saw in the market place, crying on the bench. She now seemed weaker than who she saw before. Merle was shocked to find a tiara on the woman's head. The woman left the study for a few minutes and then came back out. This time though, she had something in her hand. Merle tried to get close enough to see what was in her hand but couldn't. The 'Queen' apparently went out of the study and into a more well lit area. It was there when Merle recognized a few more things. Her features, Merle saw before. Almost everything the same except for the eye and hair color and wrinkles. This woman's hair was blond, graying, and her eyes were deep brown. A man walked out. He was quite wide and wore a lot of scarlet colored like robes. Merle knew almost immediately when the man walked in, was that these two individuals, were Gabriella's parents. Gabriella got her hair and eye color from her father. Brown hair blue eyes. The queen said something but Merle couldn't hear her. The king's eyes widened and he to, said something. Again Merle couldn't hear but she thought that they both threatened each other. The queen narrowed her eyes and held up what she was holding. A green bag with a maroon string. The exact opposite looking bag of what Merle held in her possession.
