C1 Tangled Destinies

The room is dark but she can make out the shape of a large desk in the corner.There is a single window on the wall but it is covered by a thick curtain. Charlotte stands up, she knows it's time to get up or else her brother will be mad. He has always told them to be time conscious as that is that is the way of a princess. Jackson, Charlotte's brother made a strict rule to always wake up 6am, read "FLIESS SUE'S book titled "HOW TO BE A PRINCESS" He has started to include Ashley in the rules claiming "SHE'S NO LONGER A CHILD". After brushing, Charlotte wakes Ashley up Ashley, a young girl of nine with long flowing black hair and deep piercing blue eyes, seems to hold wisdom beyond her years.Her Skin is soft and porcelain_like and has a gentle glow that radiates within. Ashley,Relunctant to stand up, Charlotte added "Our brother will be mad,you know you have to stand up" "Good morning Charlotte" Ashley said with her little fingers rubbing her eyes. "Good morning Ashley, hope you slept well?" Charlotte asks "I didn't, I have a stomach ache and it hurts a lot" Immediately rose went sad how are they going to take care of Ashley's stomachache when they barely have enough to eat. "Don't worry Jackson and I will Take care of you because you are our little sister and we both love you". Charlotte assures "I love you both too" "Alright go brush your teeth and take your Bath okay?" Charlotte said with a Pat on Ashley back "Okay Charlotte" Charlotte makes her way downstairs, where she sees Jackson at the railings staring at the passerby "Good Morning sister. I hope you had a good sleep" "Good Morning Jackson, Yes I did. uhm Jack, I have something, very important to discuss with you" "Wait a minute, before you say something, I hope you and Ashley has read Fliess Sue book this morning" "what? you are so ridiculous, Jack. Is that what's more important to you than what I have got to say?" Charlotte laments "You are too quick to feel agitated,Charlotte. I'm just after your welfare,I don't want you to feel like a novice, when I find our treasures and I finally take my throne from that damn usurper" Jackson reassures. He reaches his hands to her cheeks " By that time, you will finally be the princess that you are and you see these people? He points his hand at the people walking, "they will become scared of you and they will worship you just as they are to Elenor Flameheart now. Jack has been making these empty treats ever since they ran into Westfield for safety. Charlotte has no memory of her as a princess, she was just Six years when Elenor Flameheart killed their father. Oliver, their beautiful pregnant mother along with them ran for their dear lives and took an old and loyal maid Miss Freya into the west side of Savehavens where her family "The pendleton" has some hidden houses and treasures known only by the family members Oliver died a year after giving birth to Ashley. Leaving her children's fate with Miss Freya, whose death still remains a mystery to Charlotte. The Pendleton's are known to be the richest Family in the world. Their treasures are known to be vast and unknown.The last with the name Pendleton which was Oliver, died without being able to tell her ten year old son where the treasure are. This has always made Jackson Irritated "Jack, Ashley is sick", Charlotte Lamented, ignoring the usual fantasies her brother made about the throne. ''She has a stomachache." Charlotte said ''I will get something for her; in the meantime, keep her company,Charllote." ''Where are you going, brother?'' Charllote asked. ''To better our lives, dear sister,'' Jack says and stomps ****** Amidst the city's neon glow, Adrian surveyed the skyline, his voice a low rumble of ages past. ''Look at this, Ethan. The city pulses, yet the essence remains unchanged.'" Ethan, his eyes gleaming with ancient wisdom, nodded. ''It's as if time paused for us" but suddenly Adrian chuckled, a sound that sent shivers through time "Do you remember the night we silenced the city with our might? The mortals trembled, and now we return to witness if the echoes still resonate.Memories of our wrath linger in every brick and cobblestone.'" Sophie's gaze sharpened,"The city may have evolved, but our hunger, dear brothers, remains timeless" A cunning evil smile formed on Ethan's lips. Looking around, he saw how the city has not changed and how the mortals begged them in a kowtowing manner. It has always pleased Ethan to see people scared of him. Come, dear brothers, we have some unleashing to do." With a sweet evil smile, Sophie said. "No, we will do no such thing, Sophie. We are going to lie low this very instant and observe." Adrian turns to Ethan. "You heard me, Ethan. We have to sit back and lay low for the time being." "Are you mad, Adrian? This city ought to start trembling with fear the moment we came in here. Don't pretend you don't want to feed on these weak and mere mortals. They are ours to decapitate and obliterate."

Ethan,about to lash out is stopped by Adrian. "What are you doing?" Ethan said angrily, about to start a fight with Adrian.

"We can't just give King Eldor any hint that we are in town," Adrian said.

Oh! What then, huh? We stomp off to the forest and feed on the animals? We have been doing that for a decade now, Adrian; we have got to stop."

Perhaps Adrian makes a tad sense, brother," Sophie said.

What! Now you are supporting this lunatic, Sophie?

It's not about support; it just....makes sense."

"Say all you want dear sister, but I have no inclination to lay back. I'm going to shake this city and these people."

He points at the musicians playing, the singers singing, and the people walking.

"They will fear The Silverthornes again," Ethan said with determination
