The spooky friend of Yoon followed us, staring at the floor, sad, bored, she was still looking comfortable with it, like she was already accustomed to it. Alex is that type of person which you talk to the least, so it was hard to know a place that she would go in case of this incident, she could be… in the village, in the dungeons, in the ballroom even though is forbidden before seven o'clock, she is a risky person a brave warrior hiding from the light. We had nothing to do but admire how the panic was expanding through the castle, a normal book situation, the people living in the castle are so predictable, that I could perfectly read their minds wherever and whenever i want to, i can even manipulate them based on their beliefs,religions,ideologies even tastes,such as their 'fancy' hobbies like cricket. Teddy opened the door of the ballroom abruptly, his shoes made loud while ricocheting with the white quartz stairs, every step was getting louder and louder, we ended up being at 'the lovely date balcony', made for the young royals to force them to live with their chosen couple, Alex was sitting staring at the sky, she turned to us and our eyes met each other, she almost made the chair fly, but the chair just fall when she stand up, "What?" She glanced at us "We were preoccupied with you" The spooky friend of Yoon said "Angel? You aren't supposed to be here" replied Alex, she ran away and fell because her feet got entangled. She started holding her cry and her face began to look even more red than a tomato.

Yoon,Alex, me and Teddy got her up, we asked if she was okay but the answers of her were apparently null, she only closed her eyes and reopened, "i-i am okay" she whispered, we finished helping her to stand up, she didn't even care to say thanks, the four of us went to the dressing room, the ball was still being able to go on, no theme was announced, so I put on some random clothes, "You look p-p-pretty"Angel said to me in the center of the ballroom, "Thanks i guess?" I answered confused, no music was being played as usual, no big amount of people, it just felt very solitaire, I was exhausted by all this confusion, i glanced to the blazing candles in the chandelier, the chandelier was getting closer, and closer to me, finally it detached from the roof, i looked up too late and only saved the top of my body, I don't think is appropriate to ask for my legs now, well,at least they are still fine, i had goosebumps when i saw how Alex was happier when the chandelier fall on me, or that is what it looked like, she was doing a brief smile. I was inhaling and exhaling desperately, I only had one day of recuperation and conveniently a chandelier fell above me.

Teddy pushed me by my arms to at least get out, he pushed and pushed but my body won't come out, our intention wasn't to make even more panic than it was already made, so I just gave up and waited to the things calm down just a little bit, I moved my eyes from left to right multiple times, "do you want to try to get you out of there again?" Suggested Teddy, "Ok, if you want to" I answered, he pushed me once again, my body began to get out, it felt like i was full of butter, "Push more!" I ordered to Teddy, he pushed one more time, that was enough to finally after an hour get out of below that chandelier, we rushed to the chaos, it was even worse than the war, I felt a somebody pulling me from my arm, my pupils dilated, "Is better you hide from them, they are very dangerous right now" It was Angel again, is confusing because she was by our side, anyway we got to the dungeons again, goosebumps tour my skin, just thinking about what happened scares the phantoms out of me.A bunch of old skeletons were put on a corner, the carpet was a torn and with threads that showed that the carpet was wearing out over time, we grabbed some wood boxes and crashed them with the rough black stone walls for getting the wood that was needed to make a casual bonfire, this was for attracting the big crowd and warn them that the worst was even coming and we still had time to stop it, but the Queen came to say "No worries! Everything is fine!", guess what was fine, absolutely nothing. It was a massive fear that came from nowhere, the people just started being afraid, I mean, i would totally be panicked if a assassin can kill me in any moment, but for something there is a FREAKIN WEAPON FULL STORAGE, that I can use to save myself from the assassin. Instantly, after the Queen doing that announcement, things the panics and chaotic ambient was being extinct way faster than the dinosaurs, I was annoyed, they believed to somebody who is just sitting in a throne and going to the left and to the right signing documents that'll be always useless, but also think i lied them when I told them the same thing with different words and more planned, Alex crossed her arms, "Let's go, I want to sleep" Yoon told us while staring with the desire of having a good sleep since she didn't slept well since a very long time.

In the night, like at 12, maybe 3 am, I heard something falling, it sounded like glass so I went to check who was there, my sight was very blurry, I saw blonde spiky hair and a white shirt,"Who is there?" I asked probably seeing the wall and not the person, I saw something moving, I opened my eye wide, it was just Teddy, he has a big appetite and goes for night lunch every night because the food here isn't enough for him, I don't blame him, all they serve to us is very small, we could have a giant buffet with everything we can imagine, and we eat less that the villagers?! I don't know if it is kind of a big joke, so, if it is please stop! Is annoying, we walked to our beds in a sleepy mood, I was about to pass out of sleep in the corridor, but with my last breaths before the day ended, i reached to my bed, it was relieving, all the stress from the day was draining in dreamland, a good sleep was all i desired this times, and finally i could get it, a blinding light was above, I opened my eyes and immediately rubbed my eyes with force trying to make myself wake up faster, at the door, Yoon was waiting for me, seeing how i made myself a ball in my bed annoyed by the light, "Get the hell up Grey, you need to change your clothes man" She said wanting me to be a early riser "Let me wake up, you do it your way, and i do mine" I replied tired, after ten minutes i could finally get the forces to get up from my cozy bed and go out of my room, i was walking a little dizzy to the dining room, breakfast today was glorious, pancakes with honey spilled from the top to the bottom with a small parallelepiped made out of butter, the dessert just made everything better, a fruit salad with cane sugar and a glass of orange juice, this was the most complete meal i've always had in this castle, "Good Morning" Teddy was glacing at me smiling, he knew this was a very important moment for me. "Good Morning Ted" I said with my mouth full of the amazing food, "This is new!" Teddy commented about the pancakes, "Yes it is! I came here earlier and Maddison gave me this!" I was almost exploding with excitement, "Morning- Oh god what the-"Alex surprised while greeting me and Teddy, "How did you get that pancakes? Did you cook them yourself? Can you give me some?" Alex began interrogating me. "You know, i will make some for me and Teddy," She said, leading to the kitchen.

After almost thirty minutes Alex came with two plates in her hands,"This one's for you Teddy" said Alex, "Thanks", Teddy talked back to her, we were eating our sweet pancakes relaxed, that is what people like us deserve, or that is what I think, if the Queen would be asked about this, she would say another answer, Teddy began to choke, first his face was red and he was coughing in a terrifying way, we thought it was a prank, we did one similar a few days ago, but he was continuing and continuing, at this time I stopped laughing, but Alex was still acting normal, just when Teddy go from red to blue faster than the light, is when we tried helping him, we put his head in the direction of the floor and slapped his back, he was even worse with this, I gave him a big hit and he spit out a big pancake piece with almonds,"YOU, ALEX, YOU DID THIS TO ME" Blamed Teddy,"What? I wasn't doing anything!" "YES YOU DID YOU TRIED TO KILL ME" "Wow wow wow, calm down buddy, this can be easily a mista-" "SHE DIDN'T PUT ALMONDS ON HER PANCAKE BUT SHE PUT ON MINE" "Calm, we are all friend here right?" "Ok, i am calming down".
