Chapter 2 - Princess Annabeth and The Attack (2)

I continue to look behind me making sure no one will sneak up, I open my fathers bedroom doors with my small shaking hands and see something unreal. I scream a piercing scream in shock….

-------

I see my father laying on the ground in a pile of crimson red blood. I stand in complete shock, I was frozen. Tears start running down my pale face. I start to shake. I work up the courage to walk up to his body. I gently stroke his face with my small hands, feeling how cold and soft his skin is. Anger starts rising in my body. Questions start popping their way into my mind.

Did the stranger who told me to run, kill my father?

Everything is happening so fast, I don't even have a plan of action.

--

I read the clock hanging on the wall as the time is 4:28pm.

"I only have a few minutes to save everyone." I worriedly say

I stand up still morning my father, knowing I am the new queen. This kingdom is mine now. It's time I grow up, stand time and save my kingdom so that it's still here to rule.

I quickly run out of my fathers chambers and sprint to the head guards chamber.

I am the queen, well okay... I've only been the queen for two minutes. I have no idea how to handle a kingdom or even how to go forward. A war is coming and I need someone I trust to help me plan out a strategy.

I dash down the wide hallow halls like my life depends on it and it does. I have to put all my feelings behind me and focus on the kingdom. I will save my kingdom no matter what.

I continue to dart down the dark and wide halls.

I quickly turn the corner of the hall and everything goes black. My head starts to get a horrible aching pain, the world turns dizzy.

I feel the cold tiled ground on my back. I feel something wet drizzle down my face, it makes its way to my mouth and I taste blood.

I feel two large hands pick me up, my head slowly drips back and dangles by my neck. The world stays black as I pass out.

I wasn't scared or nervous. My mind and body were calm and I have no idea why.

Maybe its because my blood was flowing out like a river.. oh well.

I wake up with a pitch black bag over my head and start to uncontrollably shiver, the room was ice cold. My wrist began to burn from the item wrapped around them, my guess is its a rope. I try to move my feet, but they are stuck in place with chains, every time I try and move them I hear the clank of the chains hitting one another.

Only two questions came to my mind... am I going to die and is my kingdom already at war?
