"Who is there?" she asked then heard laughter of a woman,

"Stop messing with me, " she shouted.

​​

"You are not as tough as he said" the woman said mocking the queen.

Octavia folded her cuffs in anger, but the person hit her in her back which made her fell on her knees to the ground.

"Damn it seems like this fog is mixed with dark energy which weakens me a lot, " she said to herself as the person kicked her across the street and she coughed up blood.

She stood up, inhaled and exhaled.

"I just need to focus my energy at the correct spot, " she said as she closed her eyes and use echolocation.

She heard the person coming her way and as the person was about to attack her, she dodged the hit.

"You are fast your highness, that is for sure" the woman said,

"Same to you, " she replied with a wicked smiled.

The person was about to hit her by tripping her over, but she flew up in the air and that is when she saw the person shadow.

The queen smiled and the person flew up in the air too.

"You are smart, maybe I underestimated you your highness the person said and Octavia smiled.

Octavia looked at the person and saw that it was a young girl just like herself.

"If you wanted to kill me, you couldn't not even in your dreams, but I have to say you are strong, who sent you girl?" Octavia asked and the girl smiled,

"I am just here to test you, we will all lend a hand in this war your majesty" she said as both of them went back to the ground and they fog disappeared.

The girl was tall, blonde, had long hair, blue eyes, slim yet curry and she wore a black pants along with a gray vest and jacket with a sword hanging from her back in a baldric there were knives in her pants at the bottom.

"You are a warrior" Octavia said,

"Yes, I am, sorry i disturbed you at this hour your highness, but i had to make sure the person i will be fighting for is worth my protection" she replied,

"An am i worth it?" she asked and the girl smiled,

"Yes, you are my lady, " she responded and the queen yawned.

"I am sorry again, " she said,

"It's fine, what's your name?" Octavia asked,

"My name is Scarlette your highness and i am at your service" she responded.

"Nice to meet you Scarlette even though you kind of scared the hell out of me, " she said and they girl laughed,

"Nice to meet you too my lady, " she replied,

"Do you have a place to stay Scarlette?" she asked,

"No, but you should know that i am a friend of your brother, we more like grew up together" she responded,

"I see, come stay in the castle with us" she said,

"Thank you my lady, " she replied as she followed Octavia back.

Upon arriving at the castle, the girl stared at how beautiful it was and Octavia took her to the guest room.

"You can stay here and i am sure he brought you here before when you were kids right?" Octavia asked,

"Yeah, he did, do not worry I know my way around" she responded,

"Good now do not wake me up again, please I am tired" Octavia said,

"I promise i won't your highness" she replied,

"Just call me Octavia no need to be formal" she said,

"Okay Octavia good night" the girl replied,

"Good night Scarlette" she said then went back to her room and threw herself on the bed and a little while after she slept away.

As for the girl she went to sleep, but she felt really terrible for hurting Octavia.

The next morning when everyone woke up they all saw Scarlette roaming in the halls and Liam pulled his sword on her for he did not see her face.

Octavia was coming down the stairs and she saw.

"Liam let her go, " she said and so he did.

The girl turned around and upon seeing her they smiled then hugged,

"Good morning Octavia" she said as she raised up.

"Good morning Scarlette" she replied,

"Wait a sec how do you two know each other?" Liam asked,

"We met last night, please do not ask how it was an unfortunate way" Octavia responded.

"Ah i see" Liam said and the girl blushed,

Michael noticed and went to Octavia.

"I think there is more than friendship there, " he said,

"I see it, good morning Michael, " she replied.

"Good morning your highness" he said then she tapped him on the shoulder.

"You guys talk I am going to take a bath, " she said then went back to her room, but instead of taking a bath, she laid back down on her bed and slept away.

"What are you doing here Scarlette?" Liam asked,

"I came to see you, but I heard there was trouble, everyone in the pack can sense it, something bad is coming" she responded,

"You are right about that, good morning you guys" Augustus said,

"Morning Augustus couldn't sleep well?" Cassius asked,

"I am stressed I mean what if we all die?, what if he wins?" he asked,

"Relax, let's not discuss this so early it has already messed up my fucking brain" Michael responded.

"He is right, besides, we need to keep an eye on our queen we are not sure what her next move is exactly and it does not look like she is going to tell us" Cecile said,

"True, dang, I am hungry, let's het breakfast" Michael replied as they all went to the dining table and sat down.

A few minutes later they noticed that Octavia was not coming down so Michael decided to go up and check if she was okay, but as he arrived in the room and called out her name, he got no answer, but when he looked up in the air he saw her floating while she was sleeping and he sighed then called the other and they came.
