        "Show me where forever dies."                   It's always been like this. Since the moment I was born and my twin was taken away from us. Guards are always around me for fear that I will be taken, parents always fighting because of that night. They had given up... They lost hope that she's still out there. That she's still alive.
            "Princess Sapphire! Princess Sapphire!" A guard shouted. I've managed to get away from them for a while.
               I jumped down from the tree I was sitting in, scaring the guard.
                "No need to get your panties in a twist I just needed to get some air." I said as I brushed off my dress and started walking back into the palace with the guard on my heels. I have never been away from the palace and all I want is some fresh air, can't blame a girl now can we?
            I walked all the way to my room and slammed the door in the guards face, but now without telling them not to disturb me.
           I went to my vanity and unlocked one of the drawers that held my notebook full of maps and ideas as to where she could be.
         "This just isn't making any sense" I yelled and looked at some papers I found buried in my moms 'secret' stash. It said "I would like to tell you that you haven't been keeping a good eye on your children. I've forgotten completely about your little dilemma.
           -love, D"
      Somethings just not adding up, I'll have to show Sam and Amara tomorrow and see what they think about the note.  But for now I need to feed and rest. I locked the notebook back up and went downstairs and through a maze of hallways till I reached the kitchen.
      I could just barely make out my mom talking to someone. "No... wh-..... Why are you calling me so sudden?..... No one can kno-.... Stop calling me I'm expecting you to take care of that little problem and make sure-...... Stop interrupting me......... Someone's coming I got to go." When I reached the kitchen mom was doing the dishes.
         "Hey sweetie what are you doing up so late?" My mom asked me while I started rummaging through the fridge.
          "I haven't fed since this morning mother. I'm starving." I said in between gulps of the O+ blood bag I had taken out of the fridge.
           "Hmm" she softly hummed looking distracted. I said goodnight and went back to my room to get ready for bed.
      ~,~,~
                    "Fire, wake up up upppppp!" Amara my brown haired bestie sang as she entered my room wearing a fancy red dress and opened my curtains.
                    "Why are you always so chirpy in the morning." I groaned as I rubbed my eyes and turned over to my other side.
                 "Oh no you don't! You are waking up right now missy and you are getting ready. When you are done meet me and Sam in the training room." She said as she spun around with her dress spiraling with her movement and left my room.
                 "Drama queen." I whispered and all of a sudden I was shoved off my bed.
                 "I heard that" Amara said while I could hear her and Sam giggling.
                 "YOU STUPID WITCH AMARA I HOPE YOU GET BAD KARMA!" I screamed at her while pulling myself off the floor. 
               I picked out a floor length royal blue dress and went into the bathroom. I looked in the mirror at my medium curly hair, my tan skin and my mesmerizing blue eyes. What am I going to do with my hair today....I could call in the maids....hmm to much work. I thought to myself before I put gel in it and try and tame the mess I call my hair.
            After slipping on my dress I looked in the mirror one last time and finally went on my way to the training room. I had to look around the room full of our warriors for a little while till I heard Sam's loud voice and Amara's loud laughter.
             "Sammy I missed youuuu!"I yelled as I gave him a big hug.
              "Missed you too. Even though I saw you yesterday." Sam said mockingly while returning the hug.
                "Ok guys enough with the lovey dovey crap. I have to tell you the reason I summoned you guys here." Amara said getting serious which is never good. It means she has to leave.
            "No Amara you can't leave. My birthday is almost here. You have to be here to help me get ready because we both know Sam can't help me. That boy has no fashion sense." I cried out and sat on the floor holding her leg not letting go even when Sam tried to pry me away from her.
                 "Sorry sweetie I have to go. I have witch duties to attend to. I'll try to be back before your birthday ok?" She said trying to calm me down but I was having none of this. I started throwing a tantrum.
                 "Is this anyway to spend our last day together before I leave?" She scolded me while Sam sat there looking amused. That hobo.
                 Doing the only thing I could think of i jumped on Sam and we started play fighting. Not long after our play fighting was stopped by Amara. That party pooper.
                "So any way what do you guys think we should do before I leave?" She asked us.
                  "How about we watched a movie in the theater?" Sam suggested while I just shrugged and said whatever they wanted.
                We went down to the theater we have in the palace because I'm not allowed to go anywhere outside of these walls. It's like a prison here.
             We decided to stay up all night and have a Harry Potter marathon. In the middle of the movie I got a burning itch to feed so I excused myself and went to the kitchen.
            As I was about to enter the kitchen I saw a ghost thing walk past the door. I used my super speed to try and catch up with it but as soon as I came in the door is just dissolved in the air right in front of my eyes.
            I took out my o+ blood Baggie and poured some in two glasses. One for me and one for Sam, I would get one for Amara but she's a witch and hates blood. Walking slowly back to the theater as to not spill the blood in the glasses. I finally reached the theater and gave Sam his glass. We clinked glasses before my fangs came out and I slurped up the blood.
           "Fire, you dad told me to remind you about your meeting with the vampire community tomorrow." Amara told me in the fourth Harry Potter movie.
          "Ughhhhh I completely forgot about that stupid meeting." I groaned out while rubbing my eyes.
             I put my head on Sam's shoulder and he put his arm around me. I slowly drifted off into sleep while snuggling with Sam.
