AMERICA POV
Bright lights, white walls, and burning eyes. That is what i woke up to, with much pain in my abdomen. Oh, that's right i was shot, then the bullet removed by Elise. I don't remember much after that, but where am i. I'm looked down, i'm wearing a cream colored dress, not a hospital gown, that's new . I don't have anything hooked up to me, no IV no doctors. I'm not dead am I? I pinched myself, OUCH! Nope definitely alive. I started to get up and my head started pounding like a hammer hitting me, still i got up. I looked around, there's a door. I opened it. I'm in the palace, but where in the palace? Why wasn't anybody here? Where's Maxon?
I turned around and saw the sign above the door, 'MORTUARY'. Oh my goodness, did i die? No, the doctors could tell if i was alive. Then why in the world was i here? This didn't make any sense!
The Mortuary is in the basement of the Infirmary. I need to get upstairs to Maxon, he would know what's going on. This is so strange, i'm alive and well, where is everybody! This cannot be good, so until i find Maxon i'm am going to hide from everyone.
The only problem is the Infirmary is covered with guards, doctors, and nurses. One of them is sure to see me. OH WAIT! The kitchen is close to the Mortuary, there is a secret passage to the princess suite from there. I'm going there.
I slipped through a hallway past a guard, and slowly approached the kitchen. Bakers, maids, chefs, DANG IT! I need to get past them. Then a thought popped into my head, Marlee!
There she was, looking so beautiful kneading bread. I let out a small whistle, with the tune of our favorite song and she turned around. She looked mortified, like i felt. She ran to me.
"America, oh my God!" she grabbed my hand and dragged me to a hidden room, "You can't talk to me!"
"I know but i need to find Maxon, something weird is going on. Do you know anything about it?" she replied, "No, we are the last to hear things down here, news travels fast but not too fast."
"Marlee, how long has it been since the latest rebel attack?" i asked, "Two days." she muttered. "TWO DAYS?!" i quietly yelled, "I need to find Maxon now!"
"America, i don't know where he is but you can use the princess suite pathway." she pulled me to another room, cautiously looking for people. She shoved me into a dark place, and i was at a stairwell. "Good luck, my darling." she whispered and then she ran off. I ran up the stair well, and entered the princess suite. Surprisingly, it was unlocked. The room was different than before, the walls were green, with pictures of places and things of New Asia.
That is weird. I knocked on Maxon's door but there was no answer. So i decided to slip out and head to my room, but i forgot about the guards. So i waited in his room. I walked around looking at things, fixing his bed. Observing pictures he had taken. Many of his family and scenery of Illea, but then there were others. Filled with a red-headed woman. Oh wait, that's me!
There were pictures of me laughing, smiling, frowning, and some that i didn't even know he had taken. I was so submerged in mixed feelings, i almost didn't hear two voices coming towards the door. I bolted under the bed and listened.
"Maxon, what are you doing?" a coy girl voice chuckled, "Just trust me my dear." he said flirtatiously. They walked inside, and he shut the door. They were silent, but i knew they were kissing.
I heard gasping, and heavy breathing. Then the bed dipped, many minutes later i heard more mutterings, "Maxon," followed by another, "Elise."
Then I felt like I had died.
MUHAHAHAHAAH! You hate me don't you?
