Chapter Six: Lost love and…kidnapping?
John Philippe looked at Rose and smiled "You look as pretty as ever, Rose." He said softly as he walked towards her, embracing her. Rose Turned pink as she blushed, and pulled back "But you should have died…long ago, how is it that you're still alive?" She asked, like it was too good to be true. John smiled "I was imprisoned like you were, only I couldn't escape until you escaped." He said looking at her, still surprised at how beautiful his little Rose looked.
Dimitri gawked as Anna walked into the garden, she was like a downy feathery swan. Clad in lily white, she looked like a bride, but not as extravagant. The bodice hugged her torso, showing off only what was necessary, and the skirt floated beautifully around her curvy legs. All in all, she was stunning. But a new thought had arisin in his mind "your name is Rose?" He asked.
Rose blushed as she turned to Dimitri "Well…yes. I am princess Wild Rose from about 100 years ago. I was imprisoned in that lake when I was sixteen, and you freed me…which freed my love, John Philippe." She said, clearly smitten.
John smirked, knowing Rose was still in love with him…if only she knew what was really going to happen…but of course, she didn't and it would ruin his fun to tell her, so he didn't say anything, except "Well Dimitri, thank you for your hospitality to my love, but we must be going, the castle needs to be tended after you know. And with that, he teleported (And yes, I said teleported) With Rose to a place far beyond.
Dimitri simply stood in the garden open mouthed as he saw that brute John Philippe grab Rose and disappear.
Rose gasped as they teleported, closing her eyes, but once she opened them, she saw a dingy dark palace, that looked like a great tomb. She turned to John to ask him where they were, but was only answered by being gagged and bound by her hands and ankles. John threw her onto the floor, and walked off, laughing as rose began to sobb What in the world is going on?! she wondered to herself.
Presently, John Philippe returned to the dark chaimber, with someone else by his side. It was the creature clad in black that had imprisoned Rose in the first place! Rose whimpered slightly, and John grinned, clearly amused. The creature knelt beside Rose, and smiled "now now dearie, you're simply going to be held here for a while…but don't worry, I won't kill you, I'll just make you suffer, and what better ways to do that, than to have your own love turn against you?"
Rose let out a small gasp and a squeak of annoyance, and dismay as she looked up at John with her sad emerald eyes. John merely smiled in a cruel way at her, making her feel like a deer that just got cornered by hunting dogs.
The creature Smiled and hissed "When you marry MY son Jeremy, I'll hold all the power I need in the palm of my hand!" She said growing excited "I will rule the entire kingdom!"
John Philippe nodded, it was clear that he wasn't in love with Rose…maybe clear that he'd never been in love with rose. He smiled and kissed her on the forehead sweetly "Goodbye little Rose, have fun with your new husband." He said, a cruel imitation of what her own mother had said to her when she and John had walked out to the lake on that fateful day. Then He turned heel and walked out of the chaimber.
Presently, a rather Gloomy looking fellow qith large black wings and black hair as well as scarlet eyes appeared with a crack! In the middle of the chaimber, standing above Rose "This is my bride mother?" He asked softly, menacingly "She is pretty." He commented, as he pulled his black velvetine cloak over his black clothing.
Rose looked up, afraid as the creature cackled "Yes my son, she is yours." She said and disappeared in the shadows.
The man looked at rose and untied her "Well, you are pretty…how old are you?" He asked. Rose gave him a glare, and replieid "One hundred sixteen." The lad nodded "I thought so, well, I suppose we're to be married…" He said, looking more gloomy. Rose nodded "I guess so." She said "but….I do not wish to marry you." He nodded "I know, and I don't want to marry you, but my mother has power over me, and she will force us to become married."
Rose sighed "DAMN!" She swore loudly.
