***flashback***
:::y/n:::
"Y/N..I need you to do mother a favor."

She looked at me dead into my eyes.

"Y-Yes? What is it?"

She steps closer to me and I move backwards.

"I need you to pay a visit to my dear V. And I need you to do something for me when you're there..."

"But mother, I'm not allowed near him! I only came to see you because I thought you were in danger!"

She shouts at me. "I am in danger! And I need you to kill that danger..I need you to keep me safe Y/N..I need to be safe."

:::y/n:::
I wake up, sweating, and sit straight up. Almost too quickly perhaps. I place the palm of my hand onto my forehead.

Ah crap..My head hurts. Where am I?

"Princess! You're awake! How are you feeling?"

Arthur was standing next to me, yet another scroll in his hands.

Are you serious? I have to deal with these stupid orders again?

Arthur notices my glare and clears his throat.

"Ah Princess, your father has left you a message, regarding your first one."

I lie back down, ready for his speech. "What is it? What did he say?"

He unrolls the scroll and begins. "Your father has said, 'This is your only chance, to prove yourself to be a real Jahad."

     I get up again but even faster this time. "WHAT?"

Arthur drops the scroll onto the floor and drops down, covering his ears.

     "P-Princess..Do be more quiet please!"

     "A-Ah! I'm so sorry! But that message, it can't be true, right?"
