Episode. 3

Soon Allen, Elaine, and I were walking down a hallway. All of a sudden we stoped.

Allen: "Lia you stay in the guest bedroom for a few minutes with Elaine. Okay? I need to do something really quick. And Elaine. Don't say anything stupid okay? Please."

Lia: "Okay."

Elaine: "No problem."

Elaine: "So I'm Elaine. I'm his sister. And would you like to introduce yourself to me? And what brings you here?"

Lia: "Yeah... I-I'm Lia. And I... um... met Allen o-outside my house. Then we were attacked by s-someone. Allen called him a traitor. And the traitor was saying some weird stuff. I didn't really understand because Allen cut off h-his words. So he brought me here... I don't know the e-exact reason why though..."

Now that I finished speaking she looked a little worried.

Elaine: "Did either of you two get hurt?"

Lia: "I didn't. B-but Allen did. The traitor had a gun. Allen got s-shot in the side. It healed up almost immediately."

Elaine: "Well... I'll have him make sure the gun was normal. And not a cursed one. Anyway... Why are you all beat up? I mean if you didn't get hurt by the traitor."

Lia: "Um... Well... It happened at my school..."

Elaine: "Oh... I see... Well I'm sorry that happened to you..."

After that things went silent for a little while... It was awkward...

Elaine: "Oh! You should probably get your wounds cleaned up. So they don't get infected. Come with me. Okay?"

Lia: "(Whisper) I don't get why anyone would care about me... I'm useless..."

Elaine heard this but decided not to say anything. Or it might make Lia feel embarrassed.

So we headed to go wash up my wounds.

........................................................

18 minutes later...

Elaine: "Okay. All done. Now that the wounds have been cleaned we need to apply the ointment. I'll be right back."

So with this she left the guest bathroom to find ointment. I had to take of my school uniform to get all the cuts clean.

Lia's thoughts: I hope no one but Elaine comes in...

And just as I thought this... KNOCK, KNOCK.

Lia: "H-hello?"

Allen: "Lia? Are you in there?"

I guess he didn't hear me. So I was about to say it again but was too slow.

Allen: "Lia are you okay? I'm opening the door."

Just as I was going to say something, the door started to open. And then...

Elaine: "ALLEN! Don't go in there! I need to apply ointment to her. So don't go in."

Allen: "Oh! I just didn't hear her. I was going to make sure she was okay. Well I'll get going now. Oh and here's the outfit for her. Since her clothing was ruined."

Elaine: "Okay. Great. Thank you Allen"

So now Elaine was applying the ointment to me. After a few minutes it was dry.

Elaine: "Alright. here's the dress for you. And when you are done come out. Okay?"

Lia: "W-wait... Will I go home? I don't want my step father to be too mad. And I need to go to school tomorrow."

Elaine: "I'll talk to Allen. Okay?"

Lia: "Okay... Thank you Elaine."

Elaine: "No problem. Anything for a friend."

I was shocked. I had never heard someone call me their friend before.

Once she left I looked at the outfit. It was gorgeous! It was a long dress. The bottom was a dark red almost black. Then the higher you went on the dress the lighter the red was.

Until it was at the white top. It had black gems on it. It had a v-neck with black lace over it. The bottom of the dress had white lace around it.

I was almost afraid to try it on. For fear I would ruin it. But I did anyway.

After getting it on I realized that it was a perfect fit. So now I headed out to the guest bedroom just outside the bathroom. And as soon as I did that I realized something.

I could hear some people arguing with Allen and Elaine. One of them sounded like an older man. The other sounded like a young man. And this is what I heard:

Older man: "D*mn you son! I've told you to never bring that... that... thing here ever again! Why did you do it. And especially now that the crowned Prince is here! Yo---."

Young man: "Sh... I can hear her. And I can smell a strong smell of sweet blood! The sweetest I have ever smelled before!"

I couldn't help but gasp. And what that gasp got me was scary. First everything went silent. And then...

Young man: "Hello."

He popped out of nowhere. I was so terrified I couldn't move.

Young man: "My oh my. Don't you look stunning."

You could tell he was enjoying my scare because he was smiling. Then all of a sudden he looked confused.

Young man: "Let me introduce myself. I'm Prince Andrew. And I recognize you. But you probably won't recognize me."

I subconsciously stepped back. But he grabbed me by the shoulders and I jumped. He moves fast!

Prince Andrew: "Where do you plan on going Lia? Come on. Say something."

I froze. He said he knows me. He knows my name.

Lia: "I-I... When h-have we ever m-met? A-and how d-do you know m-my name?"

Prince Andrew: "Ha ha ha! I had forgotten. You don't remember me due to having your memory wiped clean of all of us here.

And how that happened is the fact that Allen's father had wiped your memory to forget everything. But now that you're here again we should tell you who you really are. Yo----."

Allen: "WAIT! We don't need to tell her! We can erase her memory again!"
