Chapter 6 - CHAPTER SIX: FRIENDS & FINDERS

°•.•°¤*✬.•°°• °•°•.✬*¤°•.•°

Trudging through the frigid forest by himself, George is trying to find the princess.

Lady Bloodworthe has given him the task to go look around the area, he couldn't have refused.

So here George is rummaging around the white blanketed forest trying to find the girl.

He finds that as his search goes on and on, there isn't that much to go off of anyway. Even if she has made footprints, the descending snow would have covered them anyway.

The frustrated George is about to call it quits when he hears a faint female voice. Not wanting to go back to Lady Bloodworthe empty-handed, he begins to follow the voice.

He peers out at the light gray cloud of smoke which he is positive that will lead him in the right direction. So he hurries his footsteps to arrive in front of a small wooden lodge. He spots a woman standing in front of the house.

Ducking behind a tree, he watches as the cloaked woman knocks softly on the door calling for someone. The door finally unlocks, revealing a pretty woman with flaxen hair. "Bliss you've arrived!" The blonde woman speaks clapping her hands excitedly.

They hug and the yellowy blonde rushes her inside of the house. George emerges from behind the piece of nature and creeps closer to the wooden structure.

Peaking through the windows, another woman comes into his view. She gets up and slowly walks up to the blonde woman he remembers from outside just a couple of seconds ago.

George gasps as he recognizes her.

It is the princess.

Internally jumping for joy, George gets too distracted to notice a figure behind him.

"Who are you and what are you doing near my house?" The unidentified person booms.

George turns around and stumbles backward because of how close the person is.

It is a blonde tall man, he is probably family to the other blonde inside. "I wasn't doing anything," George responds stumbling attempting to get on his feet.

"You were peaking in the window! I saw you!" The man shouts at him getting closer with each step.

"No, I wasn't!" George shouts back getting defensive.

The door suddenly swings open with two girls running out into the cold to join them. "Marshel what's going on!" The blonde woman yells to the man.

"He was peaking into the windows, he's probably some pervert!" He exclaims.

"No, I'm not! I-I was just passing by!" George yells as his nose scrunches up, irritated with the name that was just spat at him. Everyone whirl's their head in the direction of the door, upon hearing fresh footsteps on the snow.

"D-Do I know you?" Jocosa asks George squinting her eyes. She feels like she knows him from somewhere.

George freezes for more than one reason.

The fact that she seemingly doesn't recognize him and that she has seen him.

George suddenly feels the need to hurry back to the castle, but he needs to put a pin in this situation.

"I'm sorry, have a good day," and with that, George is on his way to leave the freezing forest and makes his way to the royal castle leaving the people behind him currently confused.
