Princess Jessica | ||||||||||||||||||
"Princess Jessica!" called the Guard rushing across the marble floor to the Princess, "You cannot stay here!" Jessica threw him a cold, questioning look. There was a large crashing sound outside of the open window. Jessica looked down at her Father's kingdom. Mainly all the trees and houses were on fire. Metal houses were burning; slowly scalding the people trapped inside and letting out toxic fumes that killed the others who had escaped the houses, guards, and falling objects. The castle sat on the East Side of the royal land. The castle was set up on the sturdy cliffs with the ocean behind them. The front of the castle faced the land, including the North, South, and West Sides. The window Princess Jessica was looking through faced the West. She was doing her best trying to blink back tears of rage of what was happening to her kingdom. "My people..," she whispered softly; her voice grew more defiant,"My people are dying, Guard. My Father would never have wanted this, letting Bucivis destroy our kingdom with his gang. Guard! Can you not hear their screams of pain? They are burning to death!" "Princess Jessica," he growled, forcefully grabbing her arm, "If you stay here, you will die as well!" He pulled her to the exit of the big empty room they had been standing in, then continued, "Prince Ethan told me himself I couldn't let you die... and you can not go against what you love wishes for you. Once you two are married I can go back to work for your brother in Crysturgal. There I am to be raised to High Guard, where I can send guards anywhere I please, and have them watch over your every move. But for now, it's me... so listen to me, my child, and go!" He thrust her out into the open hallway and started pushing her toward the South Wing. A voice called him from the North and he quickly left to assist them. Jessica stood there letting herself be enveloped by the sound of screams, gunshots, and cannons. She heard quick footsteps around the corner, from which the guard had just left. He's back!, she thought smiling. She listened more carefully. Her eyes slowly widened, showing the whites of her eyes and her jaw dropped open. "Shoot!" she screamed, she quickly turned and started running down the South Hall. Her short wavy blonde hair is clutched tightly with her hand so it wouldn't go in her face. Her skirts held with the other. She started breathing deeping as she heard: "I found one. I think it's the Princess. Yes, it's her. Yes, I'll be sure to do that," said the muffled voice behind her. She heard them shut the walkie-talkie off and start running after her. "No!" she yelled as she tripped over her flowing green dress. She fell heavy to the ground. She looked down the hall for the figure chasing her. Sure enough, it was one of Bucivis's soldiers. He stepped down hard on her shoulder, pinning her to the ground. He laughed loudly through his helmet when he heard her cry out in pain. He took his hand holding his Blaster Rifle and aimed it at her head. Using his other hand he took off his helmet, saying, "I never loved you, Jessica." (continued under picture ) |

She lay there sprawled on the marble floor, still in the same position, with her head gusing blood. She slowly blinked and licked her dry, parched lips. She took one last breath and said softly, "Shame, I really loved you, Ethan," and she slipped into unconciousness. | ||||||||||||||||||
