Chapter 12

After that embarrassing moment. I finished eating and tried to speak again, but for some reason, no sound came from my mouth. That is when Jake went to the corner of the room, took out a briefcase, and started to take out various zip bags, clear ones.

At first, I was confused but then I saw that there was writing on most of them, and then it clicked I recognized all of them, expert for one.

And then…

-Emly: Where did you find these? No better question is how do you know me?

-Jake: I do. I do know you as all the names you have used since you entered the Organisation. I can't believe what they have done to you.

He looked at me with such a worry, that I felt physical pain in my body, and in my heart. That is when a tear came from my cheek, he saw it and came close and wiped it.

-Jake: I know you don't remember but your body does.

He said that and then he backed, behind the table.

My eyes followed him, from the moment he left my side to the moment he sat down quietly in the chair. There was an awkward silence, for all time he and I were staring at each other not mattering a word. And then

-Emily: I can't stand this.

I got up fast and then felt dizzy. And I saw Jake run to me.

-Jake: careful love, getting up too fast can cause a bit of dizziness.

Then he sat me back down, handing me a glass of water.

-Jake: Now drink this water slowly, and then if you have any questions I will happily answer them.

I drank it and then….

-Emily: what? What did you...do to the water?

I dropped the glass, I heard it drop to the ground, and then nothing.

I had a feeling that they were going to drug me, but this was new.

I could hear what was happening all around me, but I could not open my eyes or my mouth.

Strange, what kind of spell has theory put on me so that I would be in this condition?

I wondered and then I might have fallen asleep.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

-Man voice: morning Miss Saint Claire. Your new clothes for you are ready, on the shelf there.

I opened my eyes slightly till asleep,

Me: who, what are you talking about?

I asked and I could feel as if I was talking in an accent a strong one almost British.

The man laughed.

-The man: well miss, what are you trying to pull again? Huh, just because you jumped off the tower does not give you an excuse to behave like this.

-me: I don't know where I am and also mister why can't I see?

I could hear him drop something and then shout…

-man: DOCTOR!!!! Someone bring the doctor.

I tilted my head in confusion and waited for someone to tell me what was going on.

A moment later I heard multiple people running, I thought toward me because the steps were coming closer and closer. And then, I felt another warm body pushing against me.

-Woman: sister! Siter¬! Look's mother and sister are awake.

-Me: Who are you?

I could feel the sudden change in tension in the air…

-|Man: Excuse me miss, I am the royal doctor. I will check your temperature and you. Do I have permission to approach you?

-Women: what do you ask for permission to go and do your job?

Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.

I could feel by the voice of her tom that she was a mean one, she said that in a sarcastic smirk voice.

I nodded.

I felt him touch me with different cold objects, asking if I could feel them a nod is a yes and not a nodding wheel means no.

After some time, he instructed me to stand up and try to walk.

I got up from the bed with the help of the doctor, no name so I got suspicious. So I pretended to wobble as I was walking somewhere wherever he was directing me with words. And then I fell so hard that I could feel blood coming from my head. I could feel everything around me thanks to the training I injured during my missions abroad. Thanks to them I have survived HELL.

So I guess I have passed out for some time. Huh.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

I woke up, and I saw a child right next to me, I felt hurt, but I didn't recognize the child next to me which pained my heart for some reason...

-Me: Hey, can you please tell me where I am and who you are?

The child woke up startled...

-child: you-y-o-u can see me?

I nodded and smiled.

-me: yes I can see you.

The child ran out of the room in screams. I felt so confused, so while I waited for that child to come or for anyone at that point, I scanned the room. The room did not look familiar to me as Emely, so I tried to get out of bed to walk, but then I heard footsteps, and pretended to fall. Then again I saw the child run to me.

-girl: sister, sister careful. Your legs haven't held up yet, your servants help him up to the bed.

She pointed at two male servants, and then they held me up to my bed, fixing my pillows so that I could sit right up. One of the servants gave me a smirk and I think that was either Jake or Derrick, as soon as I was about to hear his name he put his finger on the center of his mouth to tell me to shh.

So I did. I was a bit confused, but then I saw a man walking toward me with a group of knights.

-man: hello child how are you?

He said that in a horse voice, and the knights went to every window and door of the room as if they were guarding it.

-me: i am ok? Umm. I was wondering where I was and Who you were.

-knight: how dare you speak to his majesty like that, you insolent child.

He went to draw his sword but the “king” stopped him.

Man: Everyone gets out! Only you two stay.

He pointed at the two servants who helped me on the bed.

Everyone bowed and exited the room. In my room was only me that man and two servants.

Man: ok, now child my name is Yumisawa Kruftret the II, I am the emperor of this country, Darfth. Your name is Meisa Yuna Kruftret. You are in line to the throne, but you get into an accident…

He paused, I think it was to see my face, but I got no reaction on me. I just tilted my head and looked at him with wonder. Then I asked:

-Mei: is my name Mei or Yuna?

He looked at me and smiled, almost grinning.
