Precious Prinsess part 4

“Oh… good evening Pete.” Salina whispered nervously “I was just on my way to the kitchen for…” Pete the security guard cut in, “no worries your highness, your mother informed me that you may be doing this. She said to let you pass.” Salina rolled her eyes and pushed passed Pete to the armory. She equipped herself with a small dagger. Then she made her way down to the kitchen and filled a sack with bread water jars and canned food, she also sheepishly threw a bag of chocolate in. After that she carried this stuff upstairs with all of her clothes. She went to work ripping, cutting, and sewing in the sewing room, so finally she had a few decent outfits. She fit herself into her new pants and t-shirt. Then she was off. She ran down the long path to the stables Salina summoned she white horse and hopped on. After securing her bag on to the saddle, She literally rode off into the sunset.

Salina ran out of the dining room into the vast hallway outside. The maids and cooks were all standing looking shocked and petrified as she passed them. Murmuring shook through the castle, Salina ignored it and ran up to her quarters. She threw a big duffel bag on to her bed and opened her large closet. Her heart raced, rummaging through her endless dresses. Wait dresses? Is that all she had. Yes she couldn’t find anything else. Panicking she sat down on her bed tear pushing their way out again. Footsteps pounded on the stairs, she fell down on her bed ready to be grounded for life never leaving this room unable to leave. Because even if she did leave what would a princess do in the real world? The door opened and her mother walked in. “Hi.” She said a little sternly. “So are you done packing?” she asked. Salina looked up, surprised. Her mom looked over the empty bag then giggled. “Oh I thought you would at least make it out the door.” She murmured teasingly. “I’m not nervous that you will leave because I know you’ll come back.” And she left it at that she scampered out the door. Salina sat in bed for hours formatting a plan in her head. At around midnight she slipped out of bed and slid out in the hall. She silently wrenched a small medal dagger out of a crest on the wall. Making her way over to the armory but as Salina rounded a corner she walked bam into a very large very scary guard…

Rapunzel part #2

About 1 And A Half Years Later

                                                                    Salina sat at her rusted vanity mirror.

             Tears seeped out of her eyes as she stares at a picture of Rapunzel, she was in the mists of running away from the royal hairdresser. Her 5-foot long hair was flying behind her, while the queen knocked over a huge box of hair curlers. Rapunzel never got her hair cut once. It was 12 feet long the day she got stolen.

           “Princess Salina,” the maid stuck her head in. “Yes?” Salina quickly sat up and wiped her eyes. “Dinners ready.” “Thank you.” Salina whispered, the maid bowed out. Salina slipped her evening gown on over her raggedy nightgown and rushed downstairs. She rushed into the dining room and was surprised to find both of her parents sitting at the long glass table chewing quietly on their chicken. She stared at her father who barely ever came to meals lately. She sat down and started cutting her chicken. 

Both of her parents were being extremely stubborn. When the king learned of Rapuzel's kidnapping he spent three months trying to find her but finally gave up. Then he started spending all day in his study. The queen refused to do anything about it. She even refused to talk about it at all so Salina had no one to confide in. She was forced to keep all her emotions bottled up. Until her uncle and aunt moved in to help send out search parties because no one else had done it. 

But she wasn’t going to take it today. Today was Rapunzel’s birthday and she had to speak up. “Mother, Father… Hello?” both of her parents stared at their plates in silence.

 “HEY!” Salina screamed slamming down her fork. They both jumped and stared at her in shock. Salina looked back down at her plate. “Today is her birthday you… you know” Her voice breaking. Her mother slammed her utensils down loudly as well. “Salina! Please your mother can’t talk about it yet its... Its too soon.” Her father hissed through his teeth angrily. “TOO SOON!?” Salina screamed in their faces. IT HAS BEEN A YEAR AND A HALF! HOW LONG DO YOU NEED?! Just talk to me please… please?” 

“We are just showing emotion Salina we did all we could to find her!!!!" “No your showing NO emotion. And you didn’t you sent out one search party for three months. I could do better then that… And I will!” She said standing up and she rushed out.

Sunrise

Sunrise

An indigo expanse fades to blue

Birds voice the arrival of day in a voice of the heavens

A sleeper’s face, bathed in gold

The flutter of the eyelids

Sunlight glinting off auburn curls

A whisper of a smile

Face warmed in light

A room pure of shadows

Waking to the birth of day
