Reina: Now back to the story! How will (Y/N) react to everything?

Also, (Y/F/F) means your favorite food here.

You blink at Lamia. "Lucy....?"

Lamia opened her mouth to speak, but was cut off by some coughing.

"Echo..." She whispered. She let go of you and dashed to Echo, who had been trying to get up. You follow her and stare at Echo.

"Not now..." Echo hissed. "I cannot let the contract go unfulfilled...."

"You are not dying on me!" Lamia insisted, ignoring Echo's words. "We need a healer!"

Sakura and Elise ran over and held their staves out. Echo's stomach began to heal.

Lamia sighed and straightened Echo's clothes, accidentally touching her wound.

"THAT HURTS LIKE HELL YOU F****** A*******!" Echo yelled.

"What does a****** mean?" Elise asked innocently.

"Echo, shut up or I will knock you out," Lamia hissed. "You are setting a bad example to Elise and Sakura."

"QUE TE ****-"

Lamia struck Echo, knocking her out. "I don't know what you were saying, but it sounded like swearing."

By now, Echo's wound was mostly healed. You gingerly pick her up and look at her. "That wasn't necessary, Lamia."

"At least she's not teaching Elise and Sakura swear words. They're too young for that."

"(Y/N)."

You freeze and slowly turn around. Leo was standing up, the ropes tying him up gone. He started to approach you, confusion etched in his face.

It was then that you noticed everyone else staring. Xander and Ryoma were looking at you in shock. Camilla and Hinoka were watching you suspiciously, along with Takumi. Azura, Laslow, Odin, and Selena were looking at you with a grim expression.

They will get angry at you, part of you whimpered.

"What-" Leo began to speak, before his voice disappeared.

Your body had gone into panic mode. Before you knew it, you were already down the hall, running to get away from everyone.

There was no way you could look at Leo after what had happened.

You dash up the staircase and head to your room. You close the door -

- and accidentally drop Echo.

Oops.

.....

Apparently you took Echo with you when you ran.

And left Lamia behind.

"Oh great," you muttered. You pick up Echo and place her on your couch. You take her cape off to clean it, and return with a blanket. As you placed it over Echo, you notice that her wound is gone.

At least she won't bleed to death.

You waited for Lamia to comment....

But she never did.....

"Did you lose your telepathy, Lamia?" You mutter to yourself. You wait a few more moments before sighing.

It was then that your stomach growled lowly.

"Oh yeah...."

You walk up to your door and open it, poking your head out. Determining that no one else was watching you, you exit and close the door behind you. You slowly tiptoed forward, hiding from everyone until you went into the kitchen.

You grab some (Y/F/F) and sneak back out....

... Only to run into Leo.

"(Y/N)!"

F***!

You scowl at him. "Prince Leo."

"Please call me Leo," he softly says.

"No. I am but a mere servant, and I'm kind of mad at you."

Leo flinch. "(Y/N), I'm-"

"Save it for the next girl that falls for you," you hiss as you pass him.

You quickly walk up the stairs, cursing your bad luck for finding Leo near the kitchen. If only he hadn't fallen for Leora-

Bang! Bang! Bang!

You gasp and freeze. That sound from the wedding - the one that occurred before Leora died....

It was coming from your room.

"ECHO!" You yell as you run.

I hope it's not too late to save her!

Reina: I went from (Y/N) sleeping to talking to Leo. I wanted to show that (Y/N) hasn't forgiven him completely yet. I also wanted to use this a transition to Echo's chapter.
