THE DUNGEON AMBUSH
"WHAT! It's just a little girl," Prince Meron exclaimed, clearly surprised.
"Watch who you're calling a little girl. I came to save the princesses. I didn't know they already have a little bodyguard protecting them," I retorted, standing my ground.
The two princesses burst out laughing, and Prince Meron seemed annoyed by my comment.
"Do you know where the guards are?" Princess Rissane asked, her curiosity piqued.
"They inhaled a deadly gas caused by the explosion," I explained quickly.
"Do you know where we are?" Prince Meron questioned urgently.
"matter-of-fact, were in a dungeon," I stated.
"WHAT! WE ARE?!" They exclaimed simultaneously, shocked.
"Shhhh," I hushed them urgently. "Lower your voices. It looks like an E-rank dungeon. The people who planned this didn't have enough money to buy a higher dungeon transporter, so we might survive this."
"Do you know who these people might be?" Princess Agatha inquired cautiously.
"Who knows. They're just a bunch of rebellious commoners, as you royals call them," I replied, scanning our surroundings.
Princess Agatha seemed about to say something, but I raised my hand to signal them to be quiet and stop.
*FWOOOSH*
"Stay down," I instructed them firmly, grabbing Prince Meron's sword from him.
"Hey, that's my—"

"I hit the incoming arrow," while assessing the situation.
"Are they attacking us?" Princess Rissane asked nervously.
"I think they followed us into this dungeon. You guys should hide here while I check things out," I decided quickly, dashing away before they could protest further.
"Hey, wait! Don't leave yet!" Princess Rissane called after me.
"She just took my sword without even asking. Now I don't have any weapon," Prince Meron complained angrily.
"You should be happy. At least she's going to use it for something useful, unlike you, who uses it for fashion," Princess Agatha retorted sharply to her brother.
"Why, you little— *EXHALES* —you talk too arrogantly for a four-year-old," Prince Meron fumed.
"Why do you act like a baby when you're ten?" Princess Agatha shot back.
*QUARRELS*
"Enough! We're supposed to be laying low. Please keep quiet," Princess Rissane intervened, silencing the siblings.
SOMEWHERE IN THE DUNGEON
*HUFF* *HUFF* *HUFF*
"I know the arrow came from this direction, but I can't seem to find anyone. Maybe it was a trap to lead me away," I reasoned aloud.
*SLAP*
"Get it together, Emma. Why would they do that? I'm just a kid, so they wouldn't do that," I scolded myself, trying to focus.
*SWOOSH*
"Huh?"
*POW!--------BOOM!*
I was hit hard, crashing through a giant rock.
"That's one down," a man's voice declared triumphantly as he walked away, heading towards where the royal children were hiding.
WHERE THE ROYALS ARE
"Did you hear that? I think she's coming back. Let me check," Prince Meron whispered, stepping out of hiding.
"Hey bro, wait. She said we should—"

"Hey everyone, I found the kids!" the strange man shouted with a sinister smile, signaling to his fellow rebellion men.
SOMEWHERE IN EMMA'S MIND
*URRGH*
"I can't feel my body. Why am I here? Why is it so dark?" I groaned in pain, disoriented.
