| Chapter Ten | . Rosey . Y’know what. Screw it. I’m leaving. And I was gonna run away, but somebody’s ear splitting scream put a dent in my plans. I ran downstairs to find a lady standing in our doorway. She was wearing a dirty purple cloak, and looked very mysterious. Crystal was standing in front of the door covering her mouth. Nanny was standing a few feet away from the door, but there was a knife to her throat. I stood on the stairs, about half way down, Crystal looked petrified, and Nanny was frozen. “ROSE GET OUT OF HERE NOW!” Nanny’ voice screamed in my head. (Telepathy.) Yeah. Great idea. Like I didn’t want to. I ran up the stairs though. The purple lady pulled another knife and placed it to Crystal’s throat. “Tell me where she is, child. And I’ll let you live.” Crystal shook her head. “I… I… I don’t know. She left like an hour ago. She’s going to the kingdom.” “Ugh. You stupid child.” Crystal suddenly froze, and was lifted off the ground. I ran all the way up the stairs to my room. What was I gonna do? Nanny and Crystal have knives to their throat. And that freaky purple lady is gonna find me. So… not many choices. Purple lady thinks I’m going to the kingdom. Or maybe she knows I’m here, and she thinks I’m thinking that she thinks I’m going to the kingdom? Or maybe she’s thinking that I’m in the kingdom. But then what if she thinks that I’m here, and she thinks I’m thinking of going away from the kingdom? Ugh. Decisions suck. I went over to the window. Eh. If I die, what's she gonna do to me? And that’s why I jump.
