Yasuline would awaken once again, back at her room. The daylight beamed into her room and showing the regular amount of lighting that she sees often. She could still feel the dreariness from staying up so long at the night making her feel like lying back down and going to sleep even more. But the nasty taste in her mouth and the growling of her stomach choice otherwise. Heading to the door, she heard a noise on the other side. Curious, she abruptly opens the door. Causing the guards that stood at each side of them to jump from fright and aim their spears at her. She didn't know what helped her, her hungriness or her dreariness, but she didn't get scared.

"P-princess Yasuline! We're so sorry. You sure startled us. Is something wrong?" She tried to speak up, but a yawn escaped her mouth.

"Just woke up hungry. Now that I think about it, I didn't even eat dinner yesterday. Can one of you go up ahead of me and let the chefs know to double my servings? I'll be on my way soon Are my parents there as well?"

The two guards looked at one another before they replied. "Sorry princess, but the castle is in high lockdown. Orders from Captain Caliber and approved by both your parents. From now on, the royal family will be separated in rooms with maximum security to risk the chance of the White Reaper taking everyone out. So, sorry to say, but we can't let you leave the room."

"What!? You mean I'm stuck in my room? For how long?"

"We, are not too sure. Perhaps until the White Reaper himself has been captured or slew."

Yasuline wanted to argue more on this subject, but her stomach growled loudly. The two guards felt embarrassed for her.

"Perhaps we should deliver some food for the princess. It would be cruel to leave you hungry."

"Aside from food, I also need things to do. You know how I get when I have nothing to do."

"The princess is right, the captain can barely handle her on his own when she lacks activities to do."

"Hmm, then I'll go discuss with the captain on what to do while I head to the kitchen. Is that fine with you, princess?"

"For now yeah, but you better hurry." And with that, the guard left her with the remaining one standing by in his position. Yasuline would return to the bed, trying to ignore the various growling coming from her empty belly. She didn't have to wait long for the guard to come back with a cart of various food that had steam flowing out of each cooked dish to indicate how fresh it all was.

"Here's your breakfast, princess." The guard barely manages to say as she quickly rushed over to him and began to stuff her mouth with the fresh baked goods that caught her nose first thing.

"As for the other predicament. The captain had a solution. We would be able to escort you to another room in the castle as long as you remained there for the remainder of the day. Would make it easier for us to know where exactly you are if we need to fetch you for anything else." Yasuline would agree to this with a nod as she was too concerned about filling her belly up. Her belly continued to roar when her nose began to pick up the scent of food coming her way. With the help of one of the chefs, the guard was pushing a cart filled with plates and dishes of freshly baked and cooked goods. Some empty spots on the cart showed that some dishes have already been picked up by her parents.

"Have you picked a place on where you would want to be?" The guard asks. Yasu pauses before answering. Considering the many rooms she could pick from in the castle, she can only think of a few handful of rooms to pick from. The first being the weapons room near the training grounds. There, she would be able to pick up the weapons and perhaps learn to wield one properly. With all the free time of the day, she was bound to gain some skill for them. The next one would be her room. While she disliked being cooped up in there, It was the most comfortable place for her to relax all day in. She could even just sleep through the whole lockdown. The other worthwhile place to be in is the library. It was the second-largest in Lumines and was also a personal collection of books telling of her father's adventures when he was young. She has read them throughout her life whenever she felt like reading since it was the only thing she enjoyed reading at all. As she thought, it had been some time since she had last read them.

"Hmm, I guess, the library will do." Going through the halls of her home felt completely different than the last eighteen years of her life which she had before. The tenfold amount of soldiers that patrolled the halls gave an unfriendly atmosphere. When she tried to wave at them a kind hello, they would keep their eyes fixed open. A small knock on the wall caused them all to jump in their metal armor. Which caused a domino effect and caused the other guards who didn't hear it and Yasuline herself to jump.

"What's the problem?" One of the guards exclaimed nervously as he and the others began to look up at the ceiling and nervously looks about.

"Sir! I heard a knock. Above us!"

"The fourth floor, huh? Not many people use the rooms there. We shall investigate and patrol there next. Let's go!" And with that, only a few of the guards have remained in the halls, but the high tension was still present. She attempts to greet them to lighten the mood, a method she has grown to do as a form to help the people of the castle, whenever she manages to catch someone in a bad moment of their life. But her greetings would be ignored as everyone's entire focus was on the possibility of the enemy on the next floor up. Not even the guards that were escorting her and her breakfast. She snaps them back to their main objective and they were able to continue their escort.
