March

As I stand in my room, I look at myself in the mirror. Like really look at myself in the mirror. And that's when I see that I'm not who I used to be. I used to be a shy young girl hoping to fall I love someday and now. Now I'm a young women leading Illea to war with the Rebels.

As I look at myself one last time in the mirror I turn to the guard waiting at my door. "I'm ready," I say confidently.

The guard then turns and leads me down and out to the gardens where we will march into the forest and to their camp. But before I exit the castle, I remember something. Something that's more of a someone. Someone that could become very valuable in this war. Gravely.

I quickly turn around and I start sprinting down to the dungeons. Once I'm down I grab the keys that are hanging at the entrance. Once I'm in I search every single cell until finally I come upon one with a tiny little girl lying in the corner.

I breath gets caught in my throat. "Gravely?" I whisper roughly trying to catch my breath.

She turns and as she looks at my face she smiles. I smile back. "I'm gonna get you out of here, okay?" I say unlocking the cell.

She tries to stand, but falls. I run to her boosting her up into my arms and running back out of the dungeons leaving the others behind.

As I finally get out to the gardens, the guards all stand still. Ready for what ever is in store for them. As I reach some guards I hand Gravely off to one of the guards closest to me and I walk as calmly as possible towards even though I'm feeling as if the world is shaking me and one bad decision could cost a life. Probably because it will.

I stand tall and I get ready, "you are all here today for one reason and one reason only. Recently our Queen and Prince were captured by the southern rebels. So today we stand together as a whole and we are going to put an end to the southern rebels and get our queen and Prince back!" I yell.

All the soldiers and guards get into position and once I see their all ready I turn and start walking and for the next few hours all I hear is the steady beats of boots hitting the ground behind me.
