Two princesses imprisoned in a dungeon, I wonder where that idea came from…

Alex turned around, and the real Lilia was standing behind her. She was wearing a purple dress with silver lace pretty much everywhere, purple and dark red hair and dark blue eyes. She looked at Alex for a second, as if she recognised her. “So, you were trying to find the bathroom, but you instead found me,” she said.

“Umm, yes, I did get rather lost,” said Alex, amazed that Lilia didn’t recognise her.

“Well, let me escort you to the main courtyard Your Highness,” she said.

“Please, lead on,” said Alex.

Lilia took Alex along the corridor and led her to a large window that looked out onto the courtyard. Alex saw Jo being taken into the Obsidian Castle. “What are you doing?” asked Alex.

“I need her, and you I’m afraid, so if you could come peacefully it would be very much appreciated,” she said.

“There really is no way out of this is there?” asked Alex.

“No, you’re pretty much doomed in every respect. Now I have to ask how you have the amazing ability to be in two places at once?” she asked.

“I don’t know what you mean,” said Alex.

“I’ll explain everything to you soon, now if would please follow me and try not to run. As you are quite aware you are on an island and there’s nowhere to go,” explained Lilia.

“I could always swim” replied Alex, and she allowed herself to be taken to the southernmost part of the castle, and there was a large trapdoor in the middle of the floor.

Jo was also there, and she saw Alex and couldn’t stop talking. “I signed the contract, she’s going to invade and there’s nothing we can do about it!” said Jo, who was close to tears.

“Calm down sis, it could be worse,” said Alex.

“How could it possibly be worse than this?” asked Jo, angrily.

“It could be raining, that makes everything worse. I mean you get your hair wet and along with everything else and it just makes you feel awful,” she replied.

“Oh for crying out loud,” sighed one of the guards.

“I’m sorry, am I ruining the atmosphere?” asked Alex sarcastically.

“No Your Majesty” he said quickly.

“Yeah that’s what I thought, now if you mind not holding my arm so tightly I’d feel better. It’s not as if I’m going to run off and I’m sure you could tackle a fragile thing like me” said Alex.

“Umm, I’m not supposed to” he replied.

“Then don’t, whatever your name is; don’t you wear name badges?” she asked.

“Daniel,” he said, but further conversation was suspended when Lilia had begun to suspect something was wrong.

Jo for some reason felt weirdly better, and Lilia eyed Alex suspiciously. “That’s a very strange sense of humour you have, Princess, the last time we met you didn’t have much of a sense of humour at all,” said Lilia.

“I just developed it under the circumstances I suppose, now can we get on with this please,” replied Alex.

“Very well, proceed down to the Dank Cellar,” said Lilia.
