I own nothing, nothing belongs to me. Forgive me if I don't know all the History about king Henry llV, But I'm going off the show The Tudors, But I get the Basics. Now I Know some people don't like the girl falling back in time, TOUGH! I do, when its written well. On with the show.
I was cold really cold, and wet. It's not suppose to be wet in mid August in New York City, Something was clearly wrong. The last thing I remember doing was, arguing with my Mother about me socializing enough, she said I kept to myself to much. Why I couldn't be like my sister Britney; well she was slept with half the east side of Brooklyn; that's why she's so popular mother.
I slowly brought my head off the ground, and once the cloudiness left my eyes; I stood up in attention. I regretted that immediately as a throbbing pain came to my head, crimson droplets covered my finger tips' Lovely.
I looked at my surroundings; I was defiantly not in New York Anymore. A Lush Forest surrounded me, Green is all I saw, and it was misty and foggy; like The Wolfman Movie. I wasn't in Kansas anymore Toto. My clothes where someone wet from the dewy ground, and there I saw my bag on the ground.
Hmmm I wasn't kidnapped or robbed, everything was left, Wallet, Money, I-pod, Camera, and my Violin case. Did I Get to drunk, stoned, High; and not remember what I did the night before. No I was arguing with my mother, so I ruled that out.
"YOU THERE!" came a loud voice, I turned around to see; a whole lot of Horses, and men that looked as if they were in period Clothing; You have to be kidding me right.
"What are you doing in the Kings Own Private Lands" He shouted as he pointed a spear at me.
"King" I asked In Confusion, "What King, where am I?" I asked in panic, this had to be a joke right, the clothing the British accents. I've seen some weird things in New York, but nothing compared to this.
`"You don't Know of His majesty" He asked in Disbelief "King Henry VII", My jaw fell open, You got to be Fucking Kidding me right.
"Yes I-I've Heard of him Sir" I whispered almost to myself. "But I'm Confused"
He titled his head to the side, "Your Accent is strange" He said placing his spear down "where do you hail from My Lady, You garb is something I've never seen" He said as his brow furrowed, looking at my jeans and lace top.
"I could say the same for you" I laughed, Just following along "I hail from New York" I said with a smile, showing off my bright white teeth. "My name Alice Brandon and I'm lost" There was more meaning behind it, which they could realize.
"New York" He pondered, "I've never heard of it, where is your escort?" he asked
I had to think of something really quick, so they could believe me.
"I don't have one", Then men behind him laughed
He shook his head, "A lady such as yourself, should not travel alone," He looked at his men, then back at me. "Where is your Family Lady Alice?" I almost smiled at the, no one's has ever called me a lady; But I had to keep up my act.
"There dead" I whispered, "I've been traveling on my own, Looking for a new home." Looking down, and letting water fill my eyes; they fell as I looked up at them.
"Lady Alice, I'm sorry" He sounded somewhat sincere. "How would you like to come to court?" He asked me
"Court?" Is this really happening
He laughed and smiled "His majesty's Court, Lady Alice" He said with a smile
I smiled "That is very kind of you…." I trailed, He smiled
"Charles Brandon," He smiled again "I'm the Duke of Suffolk" He chuckled as he jumped off his horse, he was very tall about 6"3; and extremely handsome. Medium brown hair up to his shoulders, he had somewhat of a beard, his eyes where a deep green, his skin was rough, had a few scars on his neck an chin, amusing he was in a battle.
"Beautiful" I blurted, he gave a deep chuckle that made me shiver. I blushed and looked away, he chuckled again.
"Isn't that a sight to behold?" I looked into his eyes, "What is a sight" I asked softly, he shook his head.
"Nothing lady Alice" Come he said with a sweeping bow, as a fellow man took my things.
"Hey!" I called, I went to go reach for them, Charles grabbed me around the waist.
He smiled, god he smiled so much" He's taking my things" I said in disbelief, he looked down at me
"It's not proper for a lady such as you, "I scoffed at him, I almost wanted to snap my fingers and say 'Say what Girlfriend' "And what type of lady am I?" I snapped.
"A lady of some nobility" He stated, He pointed to my jewelry, and it was fancy; and expense. Rings of sliver covered my fingers, Tiffany's sliver, and a pendent that my father gave me before he died. "I meant no offense lady Alice"
"Alright Milord" God I never thought that would never come out of my mouth, he chuckled and bought me over to a horse.
It was a beauty and beast, that massive horse, I'm a girl from the city; and we don't use horses. And I only rode a horse a few times, my Mother tried to give me riding lessons, but I thought why do I need to learn how to ride a horse it's the twenty-first century; I don't live in the middle ages.
"Is there a problem, Lady Alice?" He said with humor in voice, I glared back at him; he stifled a laugh.
"Are you making fun of me Duke" I said crossing my arms over my chest, He covered his laugh with a cough.
"No Lady Alice" He said with a tilt of his head, I smiled at him "I've just met you and you already being cheeky-OOF" I yelled as he picked me up and plopped me onto the horse.
"Manhandling me I see, Duke" I said with a smile, as he got behind me; his hard torso pressing into my back. I blushed and looked down, I could feel hi smile behind me.
"I would never manhandle you, Lady Alice" He whispered , his hot breath by my ear, it made me shiver.
"Whatever" I whispered
He chuckled, "Your speech is strange, Lady Alice", He grabbed the reins of the horse "Tell me of New York" He seemed to struggle with the words, I laughed.
"Well what would you like to know?"I asked as we trotted on though the forest.
The horse seemed to gallop on more, and I bounced up and down, I was trying to hold on the best I could and not look like a complete fool.
"Well it's nothing like England" I stared at complete awe, as we made it out of the forest. Hills that's all I saw hill, of lush green. I've never seen some much land before in my life, it was breathtaking. In the distance I could see a palace, a massive stone palace.
Dear god, I've, fallen back in time.
