You Know... I Really Cant Expain This One

I am exhausted. I dont even know how I'm staying up! Today was the
longest in a long long time. After the hotel, we went to the Queen. We
were addressed by the Queen's adviser. Almost immediately I was gone.
I had been separated to be taught how to be a princess. Servants, all
girls I am at least happy to say, undressed me. I told them repeatedly
I could dress myself but they all refused. I was soon strangled by a
corset wrapped tightly around my waist. The servants pulled the lace
and I gasped for breath. I could barely breathe and it forced me to
sit up straight. Then, piece by piece, they layered a snow white dress
on with gold lace and what looked like gold vines traced into my
dress. It also had diamonds at the top and sleeves which clung to my
arms. The bottom of the dress, however, fell to my sides. They curled
my hair into a few but long ringlets and it was pinned up. Finally,
gold slippers and a gold with diamonds crown. The crown rested on my
head lightly and almost looked like a halo. Light make up and I was
finished. With golden hair, a white dress, gold shoes and crown, you
could say I looked like a princess. But soon, I heard screaming and
yelling. I ran out to the third story balcony. People had gotten
inside the black iron gates and were matching to the castle with pitch
forks!
"Down with the queen! Long live Kegan," they all chanted. I called
for Trixie and Sylis and Lane. We had visitors. They rushed out to
veiw what was happening. I knew that Lane had been fighting the
adviser. He had trapped and kidnapped the Queen. The adviser, who now
turned out to be a Sith, ran away. He looked shocked.
"Alix, whats going on," Lane asked me.
"I think its a revolt. This place is going to go up in flames
soon," I answered. I paused, thinking of a plan. Even with the Queen
gone for a few minutes, it made me in charge. Gulp. I turned to Lane.
"How do I look," I asked him.
"Wow Alix!" He stared, and I felt my face flush. "Jaw droppingly
beautiful. I would have hardly recognized you," he smiled softly. He
thought this was where it was going to end. But I heard what I needed.
Even Lane could barely recognize me. I took his hand and smiled
reassuringly. "Dam," Lane cried, looking at the angry mob of about 10
thousand, carrying pitch forks and torches, "thats what the Sith scum
has been up to."
I turned to the girls. I also needed their point of view of how I
looked. "Um... Alix? Now is not the time," Trixie cried. She was
terrified.
"Sylis," I asked.
"Liek a pwincess," Sylis shrugged sadly. I smiled and pet her on
the head.
They thought it was over. And if you knew me well enough, you knew
I always had a plan forming. This time was no different. "Perfect.
Thank you two. That means this might work," I half smiled. Lane knew.
"Alix, surely you aren't going to go and confront that mob," he
cried grabbing my hands, not letting me go. I pulled my hands out of
his, smiled without a word, and let his hands down. I took a deep
breath and turned around.
"I really hope this works," I whispered to myself. "Lane, if it
doesn't, take the girls and run." I stepped forward slowly. I had
never done this before in front of so many, not to save my life, and I
didn't know how to be a princess. And yet, one wrong move, meant the
end of us all. I felt a tug on my arm.
"Alix, we aren't leaving you," Lane retorted.
"Lane, you are if I say so. Thats an order," I snapped. I rested
my hands on the bahttp://www.my-diary.org/edit/?action=newlcony ledge.
Of course it was high. Joy. I had to think on my feet, and fast!
"People! Why are here like this with torches, pitch forks, and chanting?"
"Our families are starving, our water is poisoned, our crops are
burned down, and our cattle are dying," one of them called back at me.
Others shouted in agreement.
"Why was I not informed of this," I demanded.
"Because you're a terrible leader," they called back. They began
to chant again.
"I apologize, I'm fairly new at this. Can you tell me who tells
someone this," I asked.
"The adviser," someone else answered.
"Oh, right, thank you. Who is the adviser," I asked, hiding a smile.
The looked around for a second. "Elyan!"
"He didn't tell me. So therefore he is to blame. Besides, it was
him. He caused your pain and suffering," I shouted. The people
accepted it and yelled. I told Lane to find my mom. I went down and
helped the people, solving their problems. I was beat by that alone.
Then Lane found my mom and held Elyan prisoner. His trial is tomorrow.
But a list of things happened. 1.) The bombing. That was 12am. 2.)
The riot. At 6am. 3.) I went to visit Alsten. Lots happened. He made
me into a chiwawa, made me wear another dress, made me have puppies
too, I was strung up in a cage and nearly fell on sharp rocks with
Peace (the cat) shouting "DIE!", I got in a fight with Peace and ended
up with two scratched ears, a bit neck, cut paws, scratched back, and
I felt pretty much sore all over, but I did a number on him too. But
thats not all! I got in trouble, and Alsten yelled at me that he
didn't know what to do with me and he was beginning to hate me too. By
now it had been about three days I think. I visited Lane, and Sylis
and Lane both said I was acting weird. Sylis nearly attacked me with
her lightsaber. She demanded where Alix was and we knew I had to do
something or say something only Alix would know. I hummed her the
first ever lullaby she heard and Lane and Sylis were both asleep when
I was called back. Then, I was juggled, and had the best steak ever.
But then I was nearly eaten by Peace. YEAH! Eaten by a cat! As a dog,
you dont have much Force ability, or a lightsaber. So, I was pretty
much defense less and I had to have Alsten save me. Then, not five
minutes later, I was attacked by Peace again, this time with torture
methods and I was in a small small cage. Then AGAIN and he had a sword
and kept trying to cut me to pieces and cook me. He wanted me to die a
very painful death. He was jealous that I was a threat to him and I
was stealing Alsten. I lost my back paw, some of my tail, my front
paw, and both of my ears. Lets just say? I was hurting and that cat
can swing a sword. Alsten almost couldn't come to my rescue that time.
OH! I was also thrust into a maze, by Alsten, that had no way out. He
had gone to the dark side because I was mad at him for Forcing me to
have puppies with a dog version of Zac Effron (scary, huh?) and then
taking them away too. So he was infuriated. Then he went all
depressed. I was also nearly taken by death, impaled by spikes, and
smashed by rocks.
No, that last part isn't all in order, but still. Also, he gave me
a new lightsaber, turned me human again, allowed me to see Brooks, and
asked if they could join my group. I agreed and we can all stay in the
palace. Whats more? Lane and Trixie are still together (not Alstens
fault) and well... Lane purposed to her today. I am to be the flower
girl. Yay.
Alsten was infuriated when I told him. I had waited his materials
for the spell. Oops. He told me to break them up. I told him I
wouldn't. I was happy for them and if Lane thought he was truly in
love, shouldn't I be happy for them? Alsten screamed NOOOOOOOOOOOO,
and I actually thought it was kind of funny. I reminded him he had
lost nothing. I was still under contract, which was what he wanted. I
told Trixie I would need to talk to Lane though. But yeah.
How many times was I nearly killed today? 9? 10? I think thats a
new record. Yay! Haha. Lets not make it 11. But I'm pretty sure Peace
will find some way to turn me back into a dog and get rid of me. Or
the spys will. Or the assassins. Or the Sith. I have GOT to stop
making so many enemies!
So... yeah. All in one day. How? You see... time works
differently. It may be 3 days on Alsten's home planet, while it may be
3 seconds on Kegan. I haven't really gotten any sleep lately either.
Things are rough, but I can tell this is only the start of something.
Things are about to get worse, I'm sure. I've been a dog, a mom, a
friend, a leader, a queen, an imposer, a threat, a dead dog, and a
daring adventurer. So, you could say I'm tired. I think, for once,
I'll get some good rest. Good night! May the Force be with us.
Congrats, you have just been filled in.
