"Princess"
"Princess"
Where am I? Why can't I see anything? Who's that? Why does he call me Princess? The sound of the surroundings is very scary. It's like I'm underground. The man's voice echoed too much.
"Princess"
I just hugged my body. I was so trembling with fear. I don’t like the dark. I am afraid of the dark. I want to leave this place.
"Princess"
His voice grew louder. I couldn't stop crying. I'm alone. No one will help me.
"Princess. Let's play hide and seek. I am the killer then I will find you. Does it sound so fun? I will count one to ten."
I was alerted. I tried to stand up. I just kept walking but I didn't seem to be getting anywhere. The surroundings are black.
"One"
I stopped making a sound. There is nothing around. Am I running in vain?
"Two"
Since I didn't know what to do, I just chose to sit down and bury my face in my leg.
"Three"
"Four"
Oh Lord, please help me. I don't want to die yet. I'm too young to end my life right away.
"Five"
I still want to live. I still have a lot to do.
"Six"
I heard footsteps in the distance. At the same time, he had a devilish laugh.
"Seven"
Even so, I knew I would go to heaven if I died. I know as much as I have done all my good for others.
"Eight. Are you done hiding yourself? Hahaha"
I was irritated by his laughter. Not just one vampire was around, but two. One does not feel or speak but I can feel his presence.
"Nine"
In one second, I will die. He is close to me. Bahala na. I'm tired too. I can not take it anymore.
"Ten. Bingo!"
"Aaaah!"
"Hey Princess? Wake up!"
"Hmmm"
"PRINCESS LIGHT!"
I woke up to the loud shout of a man. I was stunned by the man in the ceiling.
What was that? Nightmare? Why is it so real?
"Hey, are you okay? You used to cry while sleeping and then you suddenly shouted. Now you're an i***t. What's wrong with you?" Ah, here are Dayle and Ben who have been shouting at me before. I tormented them.
"Thank you." I told the two of them who immediately frowned.
"For what?" Fire asked.
"Because if you didn't wake me up, I might be dead from that nightmare."
"What are you? No vampire will die in a nightmare unless someone chokes you in your sleep." I started with Ben. Of course. I'm scared because I'm human.
"Sorry. It was just a bad dream. Bad dream that really happened. I don't know. I am lost. There was a man in my dream who said he would kill me when he counted ten. Then when he was ten, he shouted at me. You woke me up so luckily my dream was shattered. It seems like it happened when I was young. I'm afraid of the dark because I'm still young. " The two are listening to me. Why did I tell them that?
"The important thing is you're okay. Let's go. Don't you have any plans to get up?" I just smiled at him. Later Shiela appeared.
"Gradually your memory is returning dear princess." Fai promised. My forehead frowned. So when my memory comes back, did that dream really happen? But why would someone kill me? The child was still my child. I have no arrears.
"Yesterday? Why is there light? Why did he say we will soon be one? I'm confused. Who am I really?" Sheila shrugged. Sometimes I get annoyed with him. He knows the truth but he still hides it. He wanted me to know by myself. I scolded him.
I got up. I left them three. I'm really disgusted. I don't want to fight him. I am no longer young for that.
I just didn't want to scold him so I chose to just leave them. I went straight to my favorite place where Krieldyr took me. Because I don't like what you feel, that's what you'll see. I'll just be even more scared.
The breeze here is really delicious. It really relieves stress.
Did I tell you that I love to sing? I haven’t even tried to sing again since I came to Magical Vampire Academy.
I composed a song. It's fun to think that this song is really related to magic. I don't do anything so I thought of composing.
There's nothing wrong with that, is there?
I smiled when I remembered the title. King and Queen.
Even though it hurts to think that Krieldyr won’t love me for who I really am, I was still able to mainspire. I'll just try to apply the tone now.
I followed him with my gaze. It was as if a grain of tears dripped from him. Is she crying too?
If it weren't for the dear king, this wouldn't have happened. I wouldn’t have expected that I was the Princess.
What if I just reveal everything? Let me just tell you who I really am. That I'm not the Princess? It's okay even if they're all mad at me. I will just stand by the sins I have committed. I am willing to pay for everything. I could catch all the hurtful words they would throw at me.
It's also okay if I'm alive as a replacement. At least my life is very meaningless. What else have I lived for if my role in my life is just a lie?
Tomorrow morning too I will admit that. I don’t want anyone to be hurt and hopeful just because of me.
Sorry, dear king but I can no longer handle the heavy things you make me do. I was not raised to be a liar. You start, I will finish.
Princess Megan, goodbye. I will bring back Megan . I will never be the King Duke's puppet anymore. I will stand by myself. I don't need anyone. I just want to be the old Megan , the Queen of misfortune.
But I hope someone still accepts me. I hope they forgive me, especially the man I love the most.
I am tired of everything. Life is so unfair.
