Spirit Wars

Chapter 14

~Tatiana~

We sat in the cellars, silent.

Mothers holding their children tight, servants sitting with their family and for those who had no family, offered around water and food. I sat with Flo and Illusion the second- somehow he had found his way down here, which was good.

Mother would be at home sulking, and everyone else who I had ever cared about was out there fighting. "Was Elizabeth allowed to fight?" I asked Flo, with a jealous tone to my voice. "No one has told you?"

"Told me what?"

She sigh and looked sad, straightening out her dress. "She's dead your highness, she died getting you out of the cage. She wads supposed to stay but. She didn't, and she was killed. The funeral will be soon, if we survive this mess"

My insides collapsed in together, I couldn't breathe. How many deaths had i been responsible for? It would never happen again I would make sure of it. Because they wouldn't have to save me anymore. I closed my eyes to stop the tears. The sound of the army's above getting louder as Maggie's got closer.

"This isn't right Flo. I have to fight."

"I have orders, you're not going anywhere." Now was not the time to mess with me. "Well I'm giving you a new order. Let me the hell out of here"

I could hear the clash of metal against metal now, they army's had met and were fighting to the death"

She was hesitant.

"Tatiana."

I turned around and saw Jenna.

I still had not forgiven her for what she had done to me that day at school. "What" I said turning around. She had started to gain weight, but like me was still very skinny from our time behind enemy lines. "I'm sorry, for what I did. It was wrong of me. All I cared abouts was how rich my parents were and how popular I was, it wasn't right. And I'm truly sorry. I wasn't kidnapped, I was being punished for not following my orders from Malchelzidec. And I agree. You could wipe half of my beauty of with a make up removal wipe"

I smiled at her. "I forgive you, but right now- I have to go"

I marched towards the door and demanded the let me out. I stated that I was the Princess Tatiana Ernessa Aliah Serena Greystone of the Spirit Tribe and I was going to save my people.

They reluctantly let me out and I was greeted by nothing but silence. My shoes made no sound against the hard marbled floor, and I heard nothing. I was still cautious. I drew my bow with an ordinary arrow for extra protection, it's weight a comfort in my hand. I looked out the window of the elevator and saw what I was looking for. The battle was on Demeter's Hill.

I ran for the doors and stopped. Of course, the palace was surrounded. Bloody hell, way to make things harder on me, good thing I knew an underground tunnel that lead from here to the village.

No one else knew about it, so it was all good. I ran into it, moving the stones and entering the code into the keypad. It opened up and I ran through it. I got to the village and crept along the sides

of the houses, keeping in the shadows. I got up near the battle and spotted 3 daemons . I shot them with my arrows and they dropped dead without a sound. I got my arrows back and headed up to the battle.

The two sides were getting exhausted, their movements getting sloppy and slow. I looked through the crowed and saw men fighting with magic sending out bursts of color. I ran through the crowed killing monsters, but really looking for Maggie. She started this. And I would end it.
