Cover Girl

Part 6

Lilly had attempted to sneak her way into the hotel they were staying in, but found out no one batted an eye her way. Though she did panic when a few ladies stopped her to ask about her dress. Either way, she called it success that she wasn't stopped by any cops.

What did worry the young blonde was that she hadn't heard from or seen Gustavo and Kelly. Lilly was sure their heads would be on platters seeing as they were late to sound check, but her bosses were nowhere to be seen. Letting out a sigh as she waited in the elevator, the younger Mitchell decided to try and let her worries go for now and focus on getting back to her boys.

'Something is wrong!' A voice yelled inside her head. Lilly frowned and quickly shook the thought away. 'Something is very seriously wrong!' The voice yelled again, much louder.

"Okay! Stop it Lilliana Paige Mitchell!" Lilly scolded herself, stopping in the middle of the hallway leading to their suites. "You are not going to panic. Not today! Everything will be fine! Your boys are okay! Stop it!" She continued, taking deep breaths to stop herself from panicking. A minute later, Lilly was back to herself. "I'm okay." She smiled, taking her heels off again before continuing her walk back to the suites. "Kate?" Lilly asked, noticing the younger girl exiting the suite they shared.

"Lilly-Flower!" Katie said in relief, hugging the older girl.

"Whoa! Hey! What's wrong?" Lilly asked, hugging Katie back.

"I messed up, big time!" Katie said as the two let go and started walking down the hallway.

"What did you do?"

"I can fix it. I just tell the Duke that mom's a dude, the I tell mom the Duke has a meeting with the queen." Katie rambled, making Lilly even more confused.

"K-Katie! What did you do?" Lilly repeated, stopping the younger Knight from walking.

"Okay, I set up mom with a Duke thinking he was royalty because I wanted to become a princess." Katie started.

"As one does." Lilly commented, gesturing for the girl to continue.

"But I found out he sells toilets!" Katie said, receiving a gasp from Lilly. "I know. And now I have to figure out how to undo the date." She finished.

Lilly stayed quiet for a second, processing the information she was given. Then finally she spoke. "Yeah, you are going to get the grounding of your life when mom finds out."

"But she won't find out. Because you'll help us meet an 'Earl' or a 'Sir' guy knighted by the queen, and then we'll still be princessess." Katie explained to Lilly.

"Seems legit." Lilly mused, knowing there was no way in hell that was going to happen on such short notice.

"Well, hello there, princessess."

The girls stopped dead in their tracks. Lilly panicked but tried not to show it when they came face to face with Atticus Moon and the giant guy with the hammer for a hand.

"Katie, stand behind me." Lilly whispered. Katie slowly nodded, inching behind the older. "Good afternoon, sir. Anything we can help you with?" Lilly asked with a fake smile as she and Katie slowly started walking backwards.

"Yes, you two will be coming with me." Moon spoke with a malicious smile.

"Like hell we are." Lilly responded, kicking the man in white. And since she was still holding her heels in her hands, Lilly threw them at the giant man, making him stumble. "Run!" The blonde yelled, grabbing Katie's hand as they ran down the hallway, trying to get away.

"Get them!"

"How nice of you to give me back my heels, especially since they're really expensive. For a second I thought you were evil." Lilly said in a sarcastic tone as she and Katie were tied to chairs.

"Shut up!" Moon cried for the umpteenth time since capturing Lilly and Katie.

"Do you realize you are nuts?" Katie questioned.

"Do you realize you two never shut up?" Moon countered with an annoyed glance.

"I mean seriously dude, this is how you should never treat a lady. No wonder I didn't see a wedding ring." Lilly rambled, trying to wiggle herself free.

"Oh, for the love of- Just shut up!" The man pleaded.

"You? Take over the world? You know we have enough problems already." Katie said.

"She's right." Lilly agreed.

"The problem with the world, princessess, is that it's run by many different people with different ideas. What it needs is to be run by one person: Sir Atticus Moon. Cat me!" The man exclaimed, holding his hand up.

The girls shared an unimpressed look as they watched as cat fly through the air, screeching when it hit the floor.

"Wow, add cat abuse onto the list of reasons you don't have a wedding ring." Lilly said.

"Do you call that a throw?" Moon asked, ignoring the blonde as he looked over at one of his hench men. He held up his left arm just as another cat was thrown, missing completely. "Oh, look, somebody just hand me a cat." The man said in a defeated tone as another one of his men brought him the cat.

"Seriously, just put down the cat, get back on your yacht, and enjoy life." Katie said to the man.

"Dude all you have here is two girls tied up. Other than that, you have nothing." Lilly added, wringing her wrists, trying to get some circulation going.

"The only thing I don't have to start my revolution, princessess, is the Beetle. And you two are going to help me get it." Moon explained. The girls looked at each other, trying to wiggle free from the chairs.

A few minutes later, Moon started messing with a console, trying to get a video screen up, paying no attenion to the 'princessess' he had kidnapped.

"How you holding up, kiddo?" Lilly asked quietly, looking over at Katie, who was struggling against her restraints.

"Oh, just peachy." The younger Knight responded, slumping down in her chair. "We're gonna get out of this, right?" She asked, looking over at Lilly.

The blonde nodded. "We will. Either we'll get ourselves free, or the boys will find us, do something stupid, and help us get out of here." She assured, though she didn't totally believe it herself. "Don't worry, no matter what happens, I won't let anything hurt you, okay?"

"Thanks, Lilly-flower." Katie smiled, receiving an identical looking smile in return.
