5 years later

In a path deep in the woods. young Martina aurora escapes the camp to have her little adventure. with as far as her little feet can carry she run faster, the light of her lamp illuminating her way. Driven by adrenaline she kept running, happy to feel so free. She came out of the dark woods as she came in a meadow with lots of wildflowers

She rolled Giggling while staring at the wide blue sky. Admiring the vast perfection. Her eyes became heavy as she drifts herself into the dream world.

Timepass, she felt as if someone was staring at her slowly opening her eyes light brown eyes stared at her widely. A smiling girl waved at aurora

" I'm Regina belle but you can call me Belle, why are you sleeping here," the little girl asks curiously tilting her head. She was silent still staring at belle, her little heart was beating so fast. She pointed to the sky

" It was pretty and the flowers smell nice " she didn't bother standing up as belle lay down beside her. Her face heats up as belle started talking she wasn't really listening. She kept staring at the girl beside her in  bewilderment

" Uhm I don't know your name. What is it " belle looked at her excitedly She remembered her father's words? Don't give your name, don't talk to strangers, and run. It seems she defying his words by just meeting belle but she ignored the warning of her mind.

" Aurora, call me aurora " she smiled not feeling any guilt upon telling her name to a little stranger
" You have a pretty name like a princess tell you a secret " belle whispered at her looking around as if someone might hear. She tried her best not to tell belle that she was doing it wrong, unlike belle aurora undergone training to be an assassin, she was positive she would kill anyone who will hurt her. Belle might be the only exception.

" I'm a princess and mommy said I shouldn't tell anyone that I am or ill get hurt, that's why we dress up as farmers," belle said wide-eyed. Aurora's face went pale and shrug at what she said. It's a secret so she will keep it. Even tho her father said royals are bad. It seems belle is the kindest person in the world.

She nodded and smiled. Belle drag her and they Played until their little bodies run out of air

A wolf's howl can be heard from afar. Aurora covered her head with her hood as she looks at belle sadly.

" I have to go father will get mad "  belle nodded and held her hand
" When can we meet again "  aurora sign and look away
" I'll find a way, we will meet here ill wait for you and you can also wait for me " belle nodded and smiled widely " promise " aurora nodded
" What should I do to know you'll keep your promise " belle pouted as aurora's lips went nearer

" I'll give you a kiss and you can give it back when we meet okay "  aurora lean and gave her a kiss.
It was brief and innocent but it was the most memorable promise their little hearts embraced fully.
Aurora took out her rose-shaped iron necklace and hand it to belle " here, you can have this, it suits you like a rose "  she smiles at belle and belle held the necklace putting it on "it's so pretty,  ill keep it forever and ever " belle hugged her tight
Their cheeks were red as aurora ran away waving at belle who waved back " ill wait for you"

But it seems their next meeting took longer than expected. As aurora came and waited at the meadow. No belle came, as she experiences the first time her heartache  as she cried for hours at the same meadow where they shared their first kiss

A carriage pulled by multiple horses traveled at a great pace as princess belle cried in her mother's arms. " Why do we have to go, mother," belle said in distress as her mother comforted as best as she could. King Maurice looked at her daughter calmly

" Assassin's were camping deep in the forest just a few kilometers in our house darling we can't let them hurt you and your mother, if we didn't leave they would hurt us. Is that what you want "  the king kissed her daughter's head

" No I don't want mother and you get hurt," belle said sadly as she looked at the carriage window as she remembered their promise
" I'm sorry I can't keep our promise, I hope we will meet again I'll miss you so much"
she gently whispered at the wind. As she embraces her mother .as the horses strode faster to the night
