A/N: I only own OCs

nattiebroskette- thanks for the reviews!

Grace POV

I was in the Common room on a saturday. I hadn't really had much time with Dean lately. I had seen Justin way to much. I would avoid him when I wasn't with Dean or the other girls. Dean was going on dates with the other girls, and the rebels were still advancing. I needed some fresh air. I walked out to the garden with Magnus.

"I'll be right over here, Lady Grace." he said and I nodded. I sat down and took in the fresh air. The weather was getting warmer and it was nice.

"You look comfortable." a voice said and I quickly stood up. I was looking at the Queen; I quickly curtseyed.

"It's alright, may I sit with you?" she asked me and I nodded.

"Yes, thank you." I said and she nodded.

"Do you like it here?" she asked me.

"Yes, ma'am." I said and she smiled at me.

"You are leading the polls in the favorites." she said and I was surprised. I didn't care and I was sure that Brie was going to be ahead. She was nice, caring, opened up to everyone, and looked nice next to Dean. Brie, Eva Marie, AJ, and I were the only ones left. We had been here for 2 months and he had gotten rid of two. I had talked to my parents through letters I knew that they were glad to be receiving the payments.

"I don't believe that." I said and she chuckled.

"You should. The people like you and I know that Dean likes you. Just keep your head up. The competition is about to get more competitive." she said and I nodded.

"Thank you, your majesty, for the advice." I said and I wondered if she had given it to the others as well.

"You are welcome, Grace. Just please keep your head up." she said and I nodded. She hugged me and turned to walk back into the palace. I heard shouting and saw rebels coming out of no where. I saw Magnus grab the queen, but I was too far away from them. I watched as a guard got shot and everything was happening in slow motion.

"Grace!" Justin said and turned to get me, but a rebel hit him. I saw two rebels zone in on me and I panicked. I turned and ran for the woods behind the forrest. I wanted to escape; I didn't care. I wasn't dying for this today.

I ran and heard people behind me. I kept going and found a tree. I managed to scramble up it as I lost my shoes. I waited and watched. The rebels were retreating this way; I tried to squeeze against the tree as much as I could. I saw them pass underneath me. I waited and saw a girl trailing behind; she was looking around. She spotted my flats; I held my breath. She looked up and spotted me. She smiled and curtseyed to me.

"Your highness." she said and ran off. I was completely surprised at her actions. I wasn't sure what they meant. I stayed in the tree until the sun started to fade. I climbed down and realized she had taken my shoes. I grumbled and tore off the bottom hem of my dress. I felt bad because it was a beautiful dress.

"Grace!" a voice shouted in the distance as I started to make my way out of the woods. I didn't want it to be the rebels so I started towards it before answering. I saw some guards and I recognized Seth and Magnus. They were the main ones who had been around us.

"I'm over here!" I said and they ran to me.

"Are you hurt?" Seth asked me and I shrugged. I was going to take a step when someone came out of no where and picked me up. I was confused and saw the arms belonged to Justin. I hadn't been this close to him since the last night I saw him and he left. I stared into his eyes and I saw a swirl of emotion in them as he started to carry me back to the palace.

"I can walk." I insisted.

"No, your feet are badly cut." he said and I looked down. I saw they were caked with blood. I didn't even realize it until now. I felt so tired and weak as I felt my body relax.
