24 I see youve me (1/2)

”What in the devil's name happened to you guys?” Livia asked concerned.

”Well, we got into a fight with her” Melia said.

”A fight with who?”

Melia raised her hand and pointed at Isabel.

Shock was registered on Livia and Phoebe's faces.

”You did what?” Livia asked

”What did I miss?” Ariana ignored her friend's outburst and asked Jasper.

”Well they apparently fought with her” he briefly explained, more like stated the obvious.

”What exactly happened? Can somebody answer me?” Phoebe bellowed out.

”Well we caught her trying to steal from us” Caspian finally answered after all the silence.

”What? Isabel?” Ariadna turned to look at her.

”Whoa, the princess stole!” Phoebe said with a bit of surprise laced in her tone.

”I needed to change clothes to blend in and well, I didn't see anyone, neither did I know anyone nor could I trust anyone I meet. So I borrowed it.”

”Its still called stealing” Melia spat out those words from her mouth.

One could notice the malice in them. Jasper glared at her in response and she backed down.

”So I was caught, one thing led to another, the fight began and by the way, I was going to exchange mine for the one I took.”

”Hmm, call it whatever you want you stole.”

”Do we wanna play that game, Melia? How about the guys planning on beating me, tying me up, taking my money and kill me at the end?”

Everyone turned to the group of teens in shock. Jasper was peculiarly angry at this point.

”If you hadn't stole, then that wouldn't have been an option” Caspian shot back.

”Boy, boy, you guys really wanna go over this again? I beat you up before, I'll do it again trust me.”

The next minute, there was some heated glare between the kids and Catherine and Jasper didn't sit this one out. They wouldn't let anyone talk down on their friend, let alone hurt her.

”Wow, feisty one. I can see Queen Isabella in her” Livia finally spoke.

”Okay that's enough everyone, no one is beating anyone up anymore. She is the princess, show some respect” Phoebe quickly intervened.

Soon enough, the tension in the atmosphere died down.

”That's enough, I am sure you all would be great friends in the nearest future” Ariana assured.

”I am tired, we all are. Let's all get along okay” Ariadna voiced out.

”My manners, let us all go inside. You all can bath and have a change of clothes and we can do some catching up. I bet Vita would be thrilled that you are back” Livia said happily but was cut short in her sentence....
