Aphmau POV

"Ross! Where have you been?" A boy with a golden amulet with a purple gem in the middle asks. He doesn't seem to notice me until I am pinned to the wall by a red headed boy.

"Who in the nether are you?!" He glares at me, a dagger at my neck. I notice the large cut on his forehead so I gently remove the boy off of me and hold his wrists, putting a barrier around us so that the other kids don't try to kill me. We are all around the age of 6-8.

"Lets hims go! Please!" The boy with an eyepatch pleads, hitting the barrier. I just ignore them and touch the wound on the red heads forehead, healing it. Everybody stares at me in amazement as I let the boy go and take out a rag from one of the bags, dampening it with a bottle of water before wiping off the remaining blood and dirt.

"There. All better." I smile at him, tired from using too much magic. He catches me as I fall over.

"Ross, who is this girl? The kid with his hair covering his eye asks as they all walk over to me.

"The name is Jessica but you can just call me Jess." I say, trying to sit up. The red headed kid leans me against the wall of the abandoned house.

"She helped me when I was caught. These guys were going to kill me after beating me up but before they could, she knocked them all out and saved me. She then took me to her castle and-"

"Wait. Did you say castle?" The kid with a dinosaur hat cuts Ross off. I nod.

"I live in a castle." I simply say. The guys gasp while Ross continues with his story.

"She healed all of my injuries and gave me clothes. Then she asked me if  I had family. I led her here after she asked." Ross finishes. I stand up after getting my energy back and walk outside of the house, collecting the other bags and the baskets. I bring them back into the house and take the cloth off of the top of the baskets to show fresh bread and cookies.

"Sorry. This was all of the food I could take without raising suspicion." I say as I take out all of the bottles of water in the bag I had on me with the blankets and rags. I thought you could lie on the blanket as a sheet and using the rag as a pillow then another blanket. I then go to another bag and take out the clothes that I could find. Sadly, I could only find three other pairs of clothes and two onesies. They were both dinosaur onesies, one purple and one red. I hand the black set of clothes to amulet kid and the black sweater with a grey stripe and the black trousers to the red headed kid. I give the last outfit that has a white and purple hoodie to the black haired child. I then give the purple dinosaur onesie to the one with an eyepatch and the red one to the one with the dinosaur hat.

"Is this... for us?" The amulet boy asks, shocked.

"Yeah. So you guys should eat!" I tell them before taking a cookie and biting into it. Ross slowly grabs one of the break rolls, biting into it before eating it all with inhuman speed. Soon, everybody else starts to eat the food, them telling me their names as I cleaned the dirt off of their faces. Soon, they are all fed, dressed and clean.

"Why are you being so nice to us?" Red asks, sitting in front of me. I smile gently to them.

"If I see somebody in need, I will always help. I'm just sorry I couldn't do anything more." I explain to them, playing with the end of my shirt.

"Well thank you for your hospitality. Without you, we wou-" Sky starts but is cut off by a man shouting.

"Come out with your hands up you thief!" I look at everybody with a shocked face while they are scared. This is when I notice something blinking red of Sky's shoe. I reach down and rip it off.

"A tracking device!" I exclaim, placing it on my shirt before taking off my scarf and wrapping it around Ross. "You guys get out of here. I will come find you when they are gone." I smile to them before summoning my sword and releasing my wings, them going through the shirt without tearing it.

"Jess no!" Ross tries to run towards me but Max grabs him and picks him up, running out of the back entrance. The guys give me one last look before running out. I walk out of the front door to see the royal guards.

"So you have shown yourself you thief!" The leader shouts. I've seen him around but I don't think he remembers me.

"Sir, she is just a little girl!" One of the men smirk. I guess they were expecting a group or something with the amount of soldiers there are. I break the tracking device.

"I may be little but I can kick all your butts." I smirk at them.

"Wait! That's the princess!" One of the smart guys shout. Everybody looks at me before gasping.

"Princess Jessica, we have been looking everywhere for you! We haven't seen you for a week! Your mother is worried." The leader says, kneeling down in front of me with everybody else. I put my hand on my hip, flicking my hair behind my back. This is when I get an idea.

"I will only come back if six boys can come with me and live in the castle." I demand. The leader pulls out a phone, handing it to me.

"You will have to ask your mother." He explains to me. I type in her number, waiting for her to answer.

"Hello? Who is this?" I hear my mother ask.

"Hey mom!" I say.

"Jessica! Where have you been? I was so worried. Come home this instant!" She shouts.

"I was home earlier. It's just nobody saw me. I will only return if I can bring six friends with me to live in the castle." I tell her. She sighs.

"Fine. Bring them but return home soon. You are in so much trouble!" She shouts before hanging up.

"You go back to the castle. I'm going to bring my friends." I tell them before turning around and running to the direction of the boys. I follow the aura of the scarf that I gave Ross, flying over the trees until I see a cave. I land and walk in, being pinned to the wall again by Max.

"Oh sorry Jess!" Max let's go after noticing it's me. I nod at him before turning to the others.

"I have a question to ask you guys." I say. They give me questioning looks. "Would you like to live in the castle with me?" I ask them.

"But we can't! What will your parents think?" Sky asks, looking at me with wide eyes.

"They said you could come. So what do you say?"
