Daughter of Evil
As they came closer and closer. We ran back in from the courtyard. Making way to Len's half empty room. The walls were covered in a dark gray with only a bed full of hay and a dresser.
"What are we going to do... I'm going to get killed by them."
Len thought... pacing back and forth. And after a couple minutes of silence, his finger shot up with an idea.
"I got it! Here I'll lend you my clothes so you can escape immediately."
"Well, what if they find out and-"
"It'll be alright, We are twins aren't we? So... no one will notice, okay Rin?"
When we were all finished changing our outfits in two different rooms. He came back seeing tears stroking down my face once more. I couldn't take seeing him leave. Feeling his fingers brush across my smooth, wet tears, he whispered in a calming voice,
"Shh... it's alright... we'll be okay."
And with that he kissed me gently on the forehead and began to walk away. I wanted him back... To come with me, so we could run away together. And be safe. My one hand let go of the rolled up blanket to reach out and bring him back... Len... please don't leave me alone.
I fell to the floor, head in my hands. Until the door shut and my hand lied against the wall. Something lied alone in a dark corner. When a flash of the past when we were small and made that halo. When I was taken, to be turned into princess and he was turned into a servant.
I stared at it, tears still pouring. While on my hands and knees, I crawled over to it. Picked it up. I sighed, bringing it to my beating heart, and whispering,
"Please... Please let Len be safe..."
I put it down and unrolled the cloak. When I noticed something in the hood... a potion bottle full a red liquid. I held it in my hand, and draped the cloak over me. Ready to start on my journey.
