“There is no point trying to run.” Genevieve thought as Astria stuck her across the face.
“Astria and Sally both use enhancement type magic.” Genevieve said as she tried to duck, only for the intensity of the nightmare she was seeing to increase.
Moments Earlier “Princess Evelyn what you are trying to do is simply madness.” Myrah spoke anxiously as she momentarily dropped formality.
“Astria and Sally are highly regarded enforcement type magicians and Gwenda uses a horrible magic.” Myrah said as she held Princess Evelyn’s shoulders.
“Going against them could lead to your death.” Myrah whispered in fear.
“It’s okay.” Genevieve said softly.
“To gain your freedom and my freedom, I have to try.” Genevieve said as she wiped Myrah’s eyes with her sleeve.
Present “They must have caught up to Princess Evelyn now.” Myrah whispered as she tied Beatrice up with her threads.
“Close your eyes and feel them.” Myrah whispered to herself as she obeyed her own order and suddenly all the threads she had used to tie every candle stick on her way here visualized in her mind.
“If I could just pull all this.” Myrah said as she tried to pull them all at once but they didn’t budge.
“Try again.” Myrah said as she pulled them again but she only succeeded in tilting some.
“Princess Evelyn would be in danger if this doesn’t work.” Myrah whispered in fury at herself.
“Marionette magic!” Myrah called in anger as a magic circle materialized under her feet and her eyes glowed red.
“Unbreakable threads!” Myrah yelled and as she pulled, the threads cut through every candle stick like butter.
Lifting up the damp towel she had already prepared,Myrah tied it around her neck and used it to block her nose as the villa went up in flames.
Princess Evelyn (Genevieve) “Any moment now.” Genevieve whispered as she got kicked in the stomach.
“Any moment now.” Genevieve whispered in pain and suddenly a white light descended on her.
“She is awakening.” Astria said in fear as Princess Evelyn’s blue eyes glowed and her blonde hair became a stunning shade of white.
Looking like a being from outer space, Princess Evelyn looked at the three maids with a glare and their knees buckled.
“Now before she gets any stronger.
We must break her and stop her from getting too strong!.” Astria yelled as she led the charge but in that moment the hallway suddenly caught on fire.
“Flames?!” Sally yelled in shock as fire raced through the whole hallway.
“She is but a baby dragon, she shouldn’t be able to call any flames.” Gwenda said in fear.
“You are right, something must be amiss” Astria the head maid said as she turned around in confusion and Princess Evelyn suddenly jumped up with the agility of a cat, wrapped a reinforced thread she had gotten from Myrah around Astria’s neck and dug her heels on her back as she pulled the thread with all her might.
With the unexpected weight of Princess Evelyn, Astria toppled and as she did, she didn’t even have the time to choke as the thread dug into her throat and cut through her windpipe.
“How dare you?” Sally and Gwenda yelled in unison as Sally charged and Gwenda tried to use her nightmare ability on Princess Evelyn.
“Didn’t you hear?” Genevieve asked as she kicked Sally in the chest and suddenly appeared before Gwenda.
“Dragons are the most intelligent beings in all of Almira, your petty tricks won’t work.” Genevieve said as she took out a butter knife from her pocket and sliced through Gwenda’s eyes in a straight line.
“Ahhh!” Gwenda yelled in pain as she collapsed but Genevieve left her there and ran towards Sally.
“Stay back!” Sally yelled as she picked up a burning table and threw it at Genevieve but Genevieve just slid under it.
“Stay back!” Sally yelled in fear but Genevieve used the thread to drag her closer and used the butter knife to slice through her throat.
Turning her head to where she left Gwenda, Genevieve approached her slowly.
“I have a specific bone to pick with you.” Genevieve said in a cold tone and Gwenda moved back in fear.
“You are a dark magic type with a nightmare ability that no one in their right minds would keep around but my mother took you in, clothed you, fed you and gave you a pay check that your kind would never see even if the underbelly of this city but what did you do to repay her kindness?.” Genevieve asked as she grabbed Gwenda’s hair and pulled her head up.
“She didn’t ask you anything lofty like to give your life for me” Genevieve said as she stared down at Gwenda “All she said was to make sure that I was fed and clothed was that too hard for you?” Genevieve asked with a glare and Gwenda began to tremble in fear.
“Have mercy.” Gwenda cried as she trembled.
“Please have mercy.” Gwenda said helplessly but Princess Evelyn slit her throat without a moment of hesitation.
“Princess” Myrah said anxiously as she ran towards Princess Evelyn.
“I did as you said and set fire to every room” Myrah said hastily.
“But if we don’t leave right now, the castle might fall down on us!”
