"Forgive me your highness" he said just before his eyes suddenly hardened and then he pulled out a Knife.

At first I was confused, what was he pleading for but now that he's holding a knife and advancing towards me, I think I have an idea or two as to why he's asking for forgiveness.

"Eric, drop the knife, don't do anything stupid" I tried reasoning with him but he's eyes look clouded, I don't think he can hear what I'm saying. With one last look at his murderous expression, I take off running the other way, screaming at the top of my lungs but when I pulled the door, it didn't open. Did he lock it?, Oh God! Now what? I turn around to see him at the bottom of the stairs, knife in hand, waiting for God knows what!.

There's no way i'm dying like this in Here. When I look back, he's climbing up the stairs, slowly making his way towards me. I angrily start banging on the down shouting.

"Help!!! Is anywhere there? Please Open this door!!" I yell at the top of my voice but nothing, no one comes to my aid. I turn to see him just a few feet away with a sinister smirk on his face. This angers me more, not too long ago this castle was crowded with people at every hallway, how is it that no one is coming to help me? or are they all in on it too?

I turn just in time to see him reach out to grab me but I'm tiny compared to him so I easily slip under his hand before he could get me but in the process of eecaping, I lost my footing and I went tumbling down the stairs. By the time I got to the floor, my whole body was hurting, that fall was painful. I lift my head to see Eric racing down the stairs towards where I am currently laid. Shiy!, Fear gripped my heart and to move my limbs at my will became a problem.

When I see him just a few feet away, my survival instincts kick in so I scramble quickly to my feet running to the other door at the other side of the room but before I can reach for the handle, I feel my hair being dragged back then I'm pulled backwards causing me to fall on my butt at his feet on the floor. I look up at him and he smiles as he pulls my hair again causing me to yelp in pain.

He lets go of my hair so i take the opportunity and try to crawl away but this stupid ball gown i had to wear is not helping matters and he pulls me back again, flipping me on my back to face him. I see this as a chance to escape so i use my leg quickly and kick him hard on his knees causing him to double over in pain but before I can act, I feel a sharp sting on my left side where he had just kicked me. My hands immediately flies there as I fall back and rub it, trying to soothe the pain as tears start to form in my eyes.

He roughly pulls me to my feet with my hair, again!. What does this guy have against my hair?!
When I'm standing, I slap him hard across his face causing his head to turn to the side but he doesn't let go. The look in his eyes causes me to tremble in fear but before I could react, he slapped me so hard I fell to the floor and i swear, i saw stars. Bloody hell! that hurt like a bitch!.

He doesn't give me time to attend to the new wound on my left cheek when he kicks my lower abdomen as I hiss and groan in pain on the floor. he does it again but harder and I spit out blood. I see his leg coming down on my face again but I roll to the other side clutching my stomach in pain.

As quickly as I can, I rise to my feet just to have him punch me in the jaw and I fall to the ground again only this time, I'm not sure I can get up again. He walks towards me, knife still in hand as the stands over me, both legs on either side of my body. Wrong move buddy! Before he can stab me, I kick him hard on his jewels and he falls to the side in pain while I crawl towards the knife he had dropped but before I could grab, he pulls on leg so I use my free foot and kick him hard but he doesn't bulge. He gets up pulling me closer to him as i kick my legs out randomly but that doesn't stop him. he jumps on tops of me successfully pinning me on the floor. I struggle in his hold but his grip doesn't lessen, instead he punches me hard on my stomach and i start feeling lightheaded but I don't give up so he punches again but harder this time. I don't think i can take any more of those punches. when he sees that i have stopped struggling, he gets up to retrieve the knife. i would have tried running but my whole body hurts especially my stomach. He comes back with the knife and sits on me again lifting the knife up to stab me but just then i hear the door handle at the side rattling like someone is trying to force their way in.

"princess, are you alright?" the person yells from outside the door

Is someone here to save me? i will not let myself die yet when there's a possibility that if i hold on just a while longer help will come. with renewed hope and strength, i search around frantically for something, anything i can use as a weapon when i spot my shoe that he pulled off my feet earlier by the side.

while he's still distracted by the noise, i reach for the shoe and hit him over the head with all the strenth i could muster up. he falls on the floor holding his head and i can see blood.

" you bitch!!" he roars getting back up. can't he just stay down

i manage to get back on my feet and half limb, half run over to the door where the person shaking it is but the stupid door doesn't open.

"HELP ME!!!" i shout at the top of my voice desperately

"open the door" he yells back

"it won't open" i shout back again frustrated. Right now tears are running down my face like water. why won't this stupid door fucking open? i turn back to see him on his feet again with blood on the floor everywhere. i start shouting again while pushing the door harder

"Shut up bitch" he growls loudly advancing very quickly towards me. i need to do something but what? God please if you are out there please help me... Before i can finish the thought he shoves me roughly away from the door.

"princess!! princess!!" the person outside yells. if the fucking door won't open, let him go get help dammit

"Go get help!!" i shout at him as i crawl away from Eric. the door stops shaking notifying me that he has gone for help. All i have to do is stall him for now.

" what did i ever do wrong to you?" i yell at Eric glaring at him still on the floor. i mean up till today the only thing i know about him is his name.

"your very existence is wrong" he growls back before jumping towards me but i quickly roll out of the way. Trying to get back up, i feel a sharp sting on my back as i hear my dress ripping. Falling back down i see blood, he cut me. i look back up at him with fear laced eyes.

"Now you know how it feels. For all those people you caused to die you will die alone too you bitch" he spits out angrily at me

"what the hell are you talking about?" he just laughs at me and doesn't answer. what is this psycho talking about? i refuse to die for sins that i did not commit. moreover who is he to give out justice if i really did commit them which i didn't.

he swings his hand again at me effectively cutting my hand. i hiss out in pain and push him, forcefully sending him stumbling back while i use the wall as support so i can get back on my feet. Staying on the ground is probably not a good idea. With my heart beating so fast as though it might fall out of my chest, i lift my hands in front of me on instinct to try to protect myself. i don't know why but something keeps whispering to me. i have ignored it so far, but right now i don't care if i'm going crazy, i have nothing to lose so i try to listen. Looking back up, Eric suddenly breaks into a run towards me, growling with the knife lifted in the air.

"let me help" i hear a voice in my head, almost like a whisper.

Something starts building up in the pit of my belly and my head starts ringing again like the other night. i close my eyes and the voice start getting louder

" let it go" the voice says. let what f*cking go?

"you know if you wanna help, might as well be more specific" i say to the voice as though expecting a reply. Did i hit my head that hard on the floor?

" NO, Now Open Your Eyes and Let It Go" the voice is no longer a whisper, more like a scream. i feel a sudden pressure build up at the bottom of my belly like something is trying to claw out way out.

Screaming too at the pain i open my eyes to see Eric upon me as the knife descends with my hands on his chest, i direct all the pent up pain and fear at him and Eric goes flying across the room away from me. immediately the pain stops and so does the voice.

i look forward to find a huge dent on the wall with Eric laying unconscious on the ground.

what? How did i?...

At that very moment the doors burst open and then I see Amy and some of the Royals running towards me but I'm too consumed in my own pain to care. Took them long enough, before they could reach me, I fall unconscious, the pain from all the cuts and bruises on my body plus the earth shattering headache i have right now too much to bear.
