Chapter 6 - Painting --- Bassies face glowed with colors from the rainbow colored mirrors, showing a delecate story. It shows a prince from another kingdom saving the princess. Bassie sighs. Knight Razzle and Dazzle walk in "..Maam, the prisoner has escaped." Bassie nods "I know." Razzle looks at Dazzle, a concerned look on his face "(…do you want us to send out the-)" Bassie puts her hand up "No…let him free." Dazzle hides his face. "..You know…he kinda looked like the guy in those old paintings!…Was that him?" Bassie snaps "RAZZLE-!….I…just leave me alone right now." RnD nods and walks away mumbling. Bassie could see her vision getting blurry, don't cry. you're the queen darn it! You cant cry. Bassie takes a deep breath and walks to her room Brusha, the painter of the kingdom, was inside Bassie room painting another piece. "Brusha..? What are you doing in my room?" Brusha puts her paintbrush down. She turns to Bassie, bowing. "Your maddam…I have important news for you.." Bassie grumbled "I know, the prisoner escaped. shut up about that.." Brusha frowns "No..I wasn't gonna say that…" Brusha hands her the small canvas "I saw a painting in here that wasn't painted by me. It was a picture of a flower field…" Bassie stares at the canvas "So you…redrew it?" Brusha nods "I thought you would like if-" Bassie hugs Brusha, on the verge of tears. "…Thank you Brusha…what do I owe you…" Brusha freezes "Nothing really….I…are you okay?" Bassie wipes her eyes, mascara running down her face "Im fine…" Bassie smiles "…You can go.." Brusha nods. She leaves the room leaving Bassie with the canvas and crumbled up drawing that was the reference. She sighs staring at the paper "…I don't even know who I am anymore." Bassie sobbed. She looks at the paper. She puts it in her drawer. - - - Its quiet. Too quiet. Sprout was sitting with Cosmo "I….how are we gonna get those flowers?!" Cosmo mumbled. Sprout just stares at the floor "…Sprout?…Sprout? SPROUT!" Sprout looks up "Wha-Huh?"Cosmo blinks "Sprout how are we gonna get the flowers?!" Sprout shrugs "I don't know." Cosmo sighs "Im talking to a brick wall…" Sprout mumbles "dont be mean about it!" Cosmo looks at Sprout "Its true Sprout! You've been acting weird I don't know what's wrong you-" Sprout snaps "Its Bassie! Okay?!" Cosmo flinched "..what" Sprout sighs "…I used to know Bassie before she was the Queen. She was my only friend…Her father didn't like that. we were split. I gave her one last gift. a rose and a painting." Cosmos eyes widened "You mean…the same rose in those tinted windows?!" Sprout sobbed "Please…don't talk about that. I…She doesn't remember me." Cosmo nods "…I see" Sprout pulls out his hand with a tiny ring with a flower on it "..She gave me this ring. I've been carrying it ever since." Cosmo looks at it "..Thats a daffodil"
