Amy was kneeling down next to the bedside table, she was feeling dizzy, and she felt as if she had gotten dsrugged. All she saw was the glass lamp standing on the table, she grabbed it and threw it at the assassins head, still out of breathe. The lamp didnt affect him much, it just made him angry 'great' she thought, seeing his outline gain in size, knowing that this meant he was coming closer. She got up and tried to run, but he slashed his sword straight down her back, makinng her scream in pain again, as the man re-entered the room "what the hell are you doing?" he asked, the assassin turned "she killed the other" he said, The man looked at the dead body, then nodded at the assassin to leave, he went to Amy "is this true?" she was on the floor, crippeling herslef to her feet, and sat down on the bed "yes" she replied simply.
The assassin returned with clive, pushing him into the room, the man took out his sword and with one great thrust he chopped off his head. Amy looked at it and screamed "NOOOOOOOOOO!" she limped towards clive, "no what have you done?" she asked, the man grabbed her away seeing her getting blood all over the purple dress "this is what happens when you disobey my orders" he said, Amy couldnt help it, a few tears ran down her face, though she wasnt really crying, she was more shocked, the man looked at her "i hope you learn from this" he said in a slightly raised voice.

The other assassin saw an opportunity to attack her, but this could be allowed. Xander threw one of the swords at the attacker, “I seems to be throwing with everything.” His smile didn’t last long as he saw the branch couldn’t hold the sword back for long. If the branch snapped it could injure Princess Aryana grave. Right before it snapped Xander jumped in between. “Forgive me for interfering like this, but you are under my protection.” The assassin jumped back, as he was facing a new opponent. Xander took a few steps right, as if he prepared for an attack. “If you tell us where you hideout is, I will not kill you.” Without response, the assassin attacked. Xander, who moved near one of the dead assassins, lifted one of their swords with his foot. Blocking the assassin’s attack with his first sword and stabbing him with his newly required sword. “Like I would spare him.” Dropping the swords, he picked up his own and walk towards the Princess, “Come, let us find their hideout. As long as we are under attack, we are in their territory. The heavier they attack us, the closer we get.” His eyes narrowed, “Until we reach their hideout.”

Amy saw him come towards her, grabbing her by her shoulders....."we wed now..." he said, Amy frowned at him, "and you shall kiss me" he said, Amy looked at him, and without warning kicked him as hard as she could in his stomach, making him crouch down, she made a run for it, though she was till dizzy, the man grabbed his sword and cut the back of her leg, enabeling her to stand up on it, he pulled her towards him, holding her down "you do not want to learn, it will cost you the life of your family" she looked at him "no!" she shotued, he smiled "then obey" he threatened, she stopped fighting him, and frowned, her whole body was hurting, she had never had to endure more pain within 24 hours than on that very day

Aryana seemed quite surprised when Xander stepped between her and the assassin. "I welcome this intrusion m'lord..." was all she could say as she watched Xander take control of the fight. Once the man was dead she gave a nod to herself. "Well atleast we know what we are slightly up against.." was all she she mused to herself before looking up at him. She said nothing before moving closer to him and touching his hand slightly, "Let us not waste time here. My sister is in need of our help."

Roran stood still, listening to Amaya's words. He was glad she wasn't mad with him, but he was still angered by the fact that he hadn't recognized her. Feeling her kiss, he blushed and smiled at the same time. About to say something, she had walked away from him. Speaking to himself, he smirked, "An impulse eh? Well, that's a very nice impulse to have." Turning back to the sink, he drank more of this purified water. He wouldn't drink anything anymore unless he gave it to himself, or Amaya did. Though he'd have to check if any servants gave the water to her, to give to him.
Heading out into the grounds, the crisp air was filled with mourning villagers. They've lost a King, and one of their Princess lost her love. What are they expected to do? And where are my younger brothers? I havn't heard from them at all! Damn those two. Damn them. Walking into the woods, he came across the burial ground for Vivian's boyfriend. He wasn't sure if people were allowed to watch this, but he kept himself hidden among the trees as he watched the magical effect. Smiling at Vivian's good fortuen, he recalled her speaking of being a witch. It's not possible, Roran. Not possible. Bringing his attention back to happy couple, they were gone, and he was alone in the trees.
Trying to find his way back, the trees seemed to speak. They croaked and groaned, and made humanly noises. Yes, he knew plants were alive, but were these trees speaking? He looked up to try and see the sky through popen branches, but his eyes met a golden glow. Maybe she's not a witch. The trees seem to speak, their tops create an orange glow too. There aren't any woods in Syra that have traits like this. What if...no, that's only in stories. Removing the thought from his head, he found his way to the stables.
Syrva seemed extremely happy to see him. "It's only been a few hours girl!" He smiled to her. He wasn't physically ready for a ride with her yet, but mentally, he thought he needed one. Taking her reigns, he took her out into some small open feild. It was more of a clearing, but he didn't care. It was large enough for him to spend quality time with his horse, he was happy with that. Laying down in the grass, he patted Syrva's ankles, brushing them with his hands. The horse neighed happily, Roran could tell she was also content. Sighing, he began to tall her of all that happened since he left her side. After all, she was the one being who would always listen, and not judge him for anything he had done, or ever will.

Changing yet again into her black mourning gown, Amaya walked through corridors and headed to the throne room where her father's advisors were. She pointed to one, who took care of the servants and he stepped forward. "Yes your highness?" He asked warily. "I want you to do a background check on all of the servants. Someone poisened Roran, and I will not tolerate this in my Kingdom. Get all of the guards and check everyone. I'm sure you are aware that Kaname however, is trusted highly, and any checks on her are frowned upon." She said sweetly, yet a slight glare was on her face. The advisor nodded and then stepped back while Amaya listened to the others that began badgering her about the issues. Listening to everyone took about 3 hours, and afterwards, she was exhausted.
Trailing back to her room, Amaya yawned. It had been a long day, and she hadn't been sleeping well since her father died. As if on cue to her horrible day, the sky boomed and rain began pouring. She flinched a little as she ran down the corridors. She was not scared of anything, except rain, and she covered her ears as she ran to her room, the servants ignoring the distressed queen. She did this everytime it rained, and not much changed.

After he had fallen asleep, Amy ran over to clive, even though she was hruting all over, she picked him up and put him on her lap "why, i'm so sorry, it is my fault, i am sorry, i should have kept it from happening" she whispered, looking down at him, she had stopped crying, but she was indeed crying on the inside.

Without wasting another second, Xander ran towards the center of the forest. If they encounter more assassins, they would easily be dealt with and it showed they were heading in the right direction.
Meanwhile, Rico was on his way to the king. Normally, one had to request an audience, but this was to urgent to request one. Arriving at the throne room, he walked in. “Milord, I apologize for interrupting, but I have news regarding one of the Princesses!” Walking at an increased pace, he kneeled in front of the King, “Princess Amy-Lee has been abducted by assassins and taken to their stronghold in the forest. Prince Xander and Princess Aryana went ahead to deal with the matter. What are your orders, milord?”
After fighting their way through the forest, they arrive at the hideout. It looked like most ordinary bandit camps, only better secured with more guards outside. Xander led Aryana behind some bushes, so they could come up with a plan. “So this must be their camp. Now we need a plan. They have Princess Amy-Lee as a hostage, but they do not know we arrived. I say, we first find her, protect her and return her to the castle.” He whispered as he watch the camp, “As soon as she is secured, I will burn the entire camp to the ground.”

Amy's wounds were still bleeing, and the pain had been so unbearable by now , it was astounding that she was even still by consciousness, as she went to the bathroom, the man still sleeping, she turned on the light and jumped, seeing how blood-covered her whole body was, she could hardly walk straight, but she saw a very small window, she looked to see if the man was sleeping, then went back to the bathroom, silently opening the window and trying to squeeze through, she had to try really hard to keep herself from crying out in pain. As she had successfully put her legs through, her head turned to the door, seeing the man stand there "what are you doing?" he asked, Amy opened her eyes widely, trying very hard to get through as fast as possible, but it was indeed too late, he had grabbed her arms and pulled her right back in, making her face slam against the floor. She spit some blood, and dragged her body away from him, she was scared to death "get away from me" she shouted, but he was coming at her with an expression of such anger that she thought he was going to kill her.
"you just dont want to learn, do you?" he asked, pressing a button on his belt, making another assassin enter the room. He grabbed her, tying her in a standing possition in the room "wip her" he said, Amy closed her eyes, not even attempting to get away, knowing she would be outnumbered. As the assassin started, she tried not to shout in pain, but the pain was worse than the first time, and the old wounds had re-opened

Roran had gotten lucky. He had put Syrva back in her stall a few minutes before the rain poured down, and he had been inside when it started. Sighing, he had arrived at his door quickly. Turning the knob, he heard footsteps. Instictivly, he looked to the person running his way. Smiling, he saw it was Amaya. What bugged him though was that she was covering her ears, seeming distressed.
Releasing his door, he swung his body around to meet her. Placing his hands on her elbows, he brought her hands down from her ears gently. "Amaya? What's wrong?"
The King swung his body around as soon as he heard the intrusion. About to speak, Rico interrupted him. Listening intently, he gasped, which he didn't do much. "They went alone? Rico, you allowed this? Damnit Rico! Send ten men. Ten men should be enough. Make sure they know that they are to listen to any order Prince Alexander gives them. If Alexander needs more, have him send you back to retrieve another deca. That's right, you're going with them."
Walking down to meet Rico, he smirked. "Maybe this'll teach you not to let Alexander just leave alone. I know he is very capable of himself, but one man is worse than two. Much worse than ten. Now go."

The man came towrds her, untying her, and carrying her over tot he bed, where he tied her to anew, "now i hope you learned to obey" he said, sitting down on a chair and lighting a cigar.

Amaya stopped before she ran into Roran and sighed, before more thunder boomed and she flinched. "I'm afraid of thunder storms. I kind of had a bad experience during a storm, and I can't stand them now." She sighed as she looked at him. Amaya looked ashamed of this childish fear, but it was what it was, and she was going to be scared either way.

Vivian sighed, her sister...well, she would get to apologize. Eventually...Walking outside on her balcony, she felt the rain falling on her skin, smiling slightly. Holding out her arms, she spun around on her balcony, face upturned to the sky. The black hawk on her shoulder flew a few feet from her, a sudden flash of lightning hiding the change. Christoph laughed, picking her up and twirling her around with him, Vivian's giggle joining his warm laugh. Together, they were dark and light, night and day, mystery and intrigue. Based on physical appearence, this was true. He had black long hair, pale skin, and dark eyes. She had white hair and violet eyes.
Finally slowing, the two forbidden ones kissed deeply, relishing each others company like never before. Pulling away, Vivian led him inside, both taking turns in the bathroom to remove their clothes and hang them to dry. Vivian wore a simple black longsleeve dress, and he wore his pants still, his shirt all that he removed. Sitting on the couch in front of the fire, she cuddled up against him, sighing happily. Whispering to each other, each told their story of what had happened between the time they had last seen each other and now.

Amy tried to talk, she wasnted to say something, but she was too weak to talk, blood running from her mouth. "where is the amulet love?" he asked, taking a puff from his cigar. Amy shook her head slowly, it was all she could do
