Ariana looked at what her sister wrote before she hugged her, and smiled. "I love you too, and I will never forget you. I promise." She said soft, even if she wasn't aware of the volume of her voice herself. Of course she wouldn't forget about her sister. How could she? Ada was the only one who, until then, had ever talked to her and spent time with her. Those moments when Ada would visit her were the best memories she had so far, and she would always cherish that. And she always had the pages of her writing pad, filled with things Ada had written, to remind Ariana of it all.

Ariana took the captain's hand and got up, following as he lead the way through the castle. Even the halls and stairs, or anything else in the castle, for that matter, were things Ariana had never seen before in her life. She knew that the world was much bigger than the room she had spent her life in, but she already found this impressive. And to think that this all was only just one castle yet... maybe it had became just very easy for her to be impressed by the largeness of the castle because she had spent all her days in a small room until that day. When the captain stopped so did Ariana, watching as he wrote something and nodding when she had read it.

Sorry, my post is a little short, but I wasn't sure what else I could add right now.

Ariana watched as the two continued to converse. Ada seemed to be angry at the captain, but Ariana had no idea why she was. All the captain did, was offering Ariana a chance to get away, trying to help her. Did Ada think that was a bad idea? She read what her sister wrote, and looked at her. Did her sister really need to ask?
"Do not ask questions of which you already know the answer. There is nothing I want more than to get away from this prison and be free, no matter how. You are aware of that, I told you many times." She answered, looking at Ada.

Freya looked at Matt and nodded. Seven minutes should be enough time for her to get to the bus station. Starting to walk, followed by the scientist, Freya made sure to look as normal as possible, as if nothing strange was going on. Blending in with the crowd Freya noticed the wallet of the man in front of her, and realised she had left her own wallet at home. Still, she would have to pay the bus somehow... reaching for the man's wallet, Freya carefully took it out of the pocket, took just the amount of money she needed and put the wallet back again.

"Hey, you can't just take someone else's money and-" the scientist started, but didn't finish her sentence. Curious as to why she didn't Freya turned to look at her, just in time to see the bleeding hole in the chest of the scientist before she fell to the ground with a dull thud. Freya cursed softly under her breath and ran the remaining distance between her and the bus station, soon reaching Matt.

"The scientist has been shot, and I don't know who did it or where they are, but the bus better gets here soon." She told Matt, looking at him. It was strange that they hadn't tried to shoot him, yet they did shoot the scientist, but she couldn't care to wonder about that at the moment.

Ariana watched as captain Volgorl and Ada conversed. Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, it wasn't hard to get a decent idea of what the subject of their conversation was. She looked at the question that was written down on the writing pad, and nodded immediately once she was done reading. Yes, of course she wanted him to take her away from here. To get out of this place, this prison and be free, go into the real world and to never see these walls ever again in her life, was what she wanted most of all.

"How?" She asked, looking at him. Of course she wanted to get away, but that wasn't going to be easy, if it would even be possible in the first place. There was no way her parents would allow her to be seen out in the open, no matter the circumstances, and there were probably too many guards around to sneak away without being seen, so how exactly was he planning to get her out of here? Because to Ariana, it simply sounded impossible.

Hmm, maybe we can do both? First they hide in a village and she gets kidnapped, and a little while after he saved her they decide to go and find a cure for her deafness, go to the mage and are sent on a quest?

Ariana looked at what Volgorl had written down, being quiet for a moment after reading it. This was a bad idea, she shouldn't tell him. She had probably already gone too far with saying what she just said to him. If her parents would find out, she would be in trouble, and probably the captain would be too. Then again, what were the odds that she would see him again, or that he would actually tell someone about this all? Maybe he wouldn't even believe her in the first place. And if he was a captain and would really try to help her, than maybe, just maybe, the king and queen would listen, or at least think of what the captain had to say. What did she had up lose anyway? It was worth a try.
"They are... the king and queen, my parents." She said.

That's okay, don't worry about it!

Ariana smiled when she read his compliment on her name. When he wrote something else down, she read it again, and nodded, the smile fading from her face again. "Yes, I am. I'm in here because they don't want anyone to know that I exist." She said, not looking away from Volgorl. She was in that room against her will, even though she had gotten used to it throughout the years that had passed. But it wasn't like she could do anything that would change her situation. She was stuck in that room probably until forever, and though that idea depressed her, she had learned to accept it.

Katherine looked at her sister. "I haven't seen him since earlier today, in the garden. I assumed that he was with you." She answered. She hadn't thought much of the fact that she hadn't seen their guest yet on the party. After all Ada was at the party too, and shockingly enough, so was Helena, although Katherine assumed she had been forced to by her mother. With all three princesses there, the odds were he was talking to one of the other two.

Ariana read what the man had written down. His name didn't sound familiar to her. But then again, she hardly get to hear any news of the things that were going on in the world, or who was important and famous and who wasn't. "It's nice to meet you, Volgorl. My name is Ariana." She answered. To Ariana, it was truly nice to meet him. She never met new people, and apart from Ada never got to talk someone, let alone a captain, who she presumed wasn't even part of the royal family, or the castle's staff.

She didn't know if she were supposed to talk to this man, if one could actually call her way of communicating talking. She was certain that to normal people, it wasn't an usual way of talking, or an usual way to communicate in general.

But she was locked up inside this room for a reason. Sure, the staff wouldn't say a word to her when they came to give her food and water, but she sometimes talked with her sister, although she wasn't sure if the king and queen were aware of that, and if they actually allowed it if they knew. But Ariana couldn't be bothered worrying about that, too excited to finally get a chance to meet someone other than her sister, to not be alone, even if she didn't know how long his visit would last.
