AMERICA POV
"Brigitte! Charles! Where are you?" Oh gosh, where did they go? Brigitte and Charlie are 8 years old and are always getting in trouble. Ever since they started crawling, they were twin double trouble. I left them with Marlee, my new head maid, and now she says that they bolted the second I left. We are both now looking throughout the palace.
"Do you think they would have gone outside? You know how much they love the rain," Marlee exclaimed.
"Yeah, I guess. But I told them NOT to go outside. The rebel attacks are becoming more frequent. Let's go check." We looked out the window and saw Brigitte and Charlie playing in their finest clothes, in the mud, with Mia. All three of them have gotten big. Marlee and I smile at the three of them playing. "We should go get them. They could catch a cold." Marlee stays were she is.
"Wait America, look at the trees." I come back, and I see eyes looking at them. The rebels. We start running outside.
"BRIGITTE CHARLIE! GET INSIDE NOW!" I scream. The rebels react. The sirens go off. Charlie runs inside but Brigitte gets her dress stuck on a tree root. "Take Charlie to the safe room Marlee! Go! I got Brigitte!" I can hear Charlie screaming for me. I run outside to Brigitte. But I'm not fast enough. One of the rebels grabs her arm. I can hear her high pitch screech and it tears me apart. I punch the rebel in the face and he falls to the ground. I see that Maxon is by the doorway. "Brigitte, run to the door. Nobody will get you. Daddy is there. Go!" I watch Brigitte run towards Maxon. I totally forgot about the rebel. The rebel grabs my leg and I fall. He starts dragging me but I hold on to the root. I hear Maxon yelling at the guards to help me, but I hear a gun cock from behind me.
"Bye bye Queen." I close my eyes, waiting for the gunshot. I hear it, but I only feel something fall on me. I open my eyes. I scream. It's Mia. I hear Maxon running towards me
"America, we have to go!" Maxon grabs me, but all I can think of is Mia, in the mud, blood everywhere. She took the shot for me. I keep on screaming and fighting to get my sheltie. I feel like one of my children just died.
"MIA! MIA NOOO!" I scream throughout the palace. We make it to the safe room. It is caotic in there. The twins are screaming because of my screaming. Maxon sets me on the bed.
"America! America it is fine!" But I don't care. Mia was my baby, and I couldn't save her. I get up and sprint to the door. I start banging on it, hoping it will open. I keep screaming her name. He comes up to me and wraps his arms around my waist. He carries me over to the bed and I cry and sob for Mia. Eventually I fall asleep.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I wake up to something moving on the bed. I open my eyes and find Maxon on the other side of me, with Brigitte and Charlie in the middle of us. They are all staring at me.
"What's going on? Maxon?" I ask. I am very confused. They are all smiling at me.
"We have a surprise for you. Come on," Maxon says. I cautiously get up. The twins come over and grab my hands. We all walk down to the hospital wing. They lead me to a bed, with something in it. I then hear barking. The same barking Mia makes. I look and find my puppy, wagging her tail, as happy as ever to see me. She has a cast around her front right paw. I run over to her and hug her. She starts licking my face as tears come down. Brigitte hops on the bed as Charlie pets Mia.
"Maxon, how is she alive?" I ask again. He walks over and wraps an arm around me.
"Well, Mia is a tough girl. The bullet was only in her leg. After we were in the safe room, the guards grabbed Mia and brought her here. She will be fine, but she is in a cast for a few weeks." I release Mia and hug Maxon.
"Thank you."
"Hey she is my dog too. I would have been devastated if she died too," he laughs. I join him. Mia starts barking again.
"So would I!" Brigitte says.
"Me too! She's family!" Charlie chips in. Maxon and I sit on the bed with them.
"Yes she is, Charlie." I reply.
"Mommy, can we get another puppy?" Brigitte asks. I laugh.
"I think one puppy is just fine."
