Before...
"The great king of Corona wants a child executed?" I ask.
"Shut up. You're no child." The Captain hisses.
I roll my eyes. I'm just 14 years old. He ordered my execution. My execution? He says children shouldn't go to jail, but what about killing children. I grip the chains around my hands. Why did he have my execution over a frozen wasteland. I might as well die from the cold. I could see Stan and Pete were freezing. Stan's mustache was almost frozen.
"Please. Don't do this." I say.
"You shouldn't have attacked the princess, twice." He huffs at me.
"I didn't want to hurt anybody!" I yell.
I don't want to die! I don't want to be murdered! I have still a life!
"Please. Please." I beg.
"Shut up. It's the king's ordered." He says.
"To kill a child? To kill a boy with no mother?" I raise an eyebrow.
He hits me.
"What was that for?" I ask.
"Hold your tongue kid!" He yells.
He throws e into the snow. I wince. I feel blood coming out of my nose. I wipe it.
"Isn't Cassandra your daughter?" I ask dusting myself off.
"Your point being?" He asks.
"How can you kill a child?" I ask walking up to him.
"I do what the king wants." He says.
"Clearley." I roll my eyes.
"Stop with the attitude you're going to die here and now." He says.
"Please. Please." I beg.
Stan and Pete grab me.
"Uh Captain, this killing makes me uncomfortable." Pete says.
"Quiet!" Stan growls.
"What? He's got a point." Pete shrugs.
"Quiet you two!" The Captain yells.
"Sorry." Stan and Pete mutter.
They push me onto something. Ice. It's a frozen lake. The Captain takes out a sword.
"Please! Wait!" I yell.
Stan and Pete push me forward. I see the ice craking.
"Uhhh guys-" I try to warn them.
"Enough Varian, it's time you pay the price." He raises the sword.
"Please! Don't!" I scream.
Tears blow up in my face.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Wait!" I cry.
Despite my pleading he slams the word into my heart. Pain flashes inside my body. Blood spills from my mouth. He... he killed a child. The King of Corona killed a little boy. A little confused boy. I fall to my knees.
"You...will...regret...this." I look up at the Captain.
The ice breaks under my feet and everything goes black.
