Celeste ran. I should've changed into something that's not a dress. She weaved in and out of the trees, and kept it going for a few minutes before her foot caught on a tree root, and she fell.

Liberty jumped out of the window, using an axe on the castle wall to help her decent. After she landed, she raced after Lilith, a ball of fire guiding her way.

Arthur lep out the window, sliding down the wall and rolling as he lept off. Shifting to wolf form he quickly overtook the other two heading after the princess.

Celeste scrambled to her feet and continued to run. They wouldn't get her this easily.
After a good deal of running, Celeste, exhausted, knew that she couldn't run anymore. She turned around and weakly put her fists up, wanting to rather die fighting than die doing nothing.

Liberty quickly caught up to the princess, drawing her axes in a throwing position. A wicked smirk crossed her face. This is going to be fun. "Time's up, princess,"

"Wait." Lillith stepped out from the shadows, a calculating look on her face. "We might want to keep this one alive for a bit."

Celeste's eyes filled with fear, the hem of her gown was tattered. She kept her face straight, but she was fearful for her life. She wanted to live.
"I'd rather die fighting than die mercilessly, that is my request"

"I'm pretty sure you're in no place to make requests, princess. Tell ya what though. Answer a few of my questions, honestly, and I'll see what I can do."

Celeste scowls, and she brushes her dirty blond hair away from her face.
"What?" She seethes.

"That an agreement?" There's a smirk on her face.

"I… yes" She grumbles.

"Well, my first question is why the fuck do those flashlight beams of yours hurt so damn much."

Celeste stifles a laugh. "Um…sorry? I didn't intend to hurt you much, just deter you, I guess."

"Yeah, well now my shoulder is sore and I'm salty about that. Pretty neat trick though, I'll give ya that." Lillith shook her head, hiding a small smile. "Second question, why the hell did you jump out a window?"

"Uh…My father…He and I are not exactly on the same page. He doesn't really know that I can use magic…. I didn't want to become queen and enforce non-magic, when I can do magic myself. I needed to escape…"

Her thoughts were scattered as she looked at the assassins.

Arthur padded out of the trees behind the princess, shifting as he got out of the trees. "Would you prefer an alternative to death? One that doesn't involve you becoming queen either?" he asked, his voice low.

Lillith looked at Arthur, eyes sparking in the dark. "Are you suggesting…"

"Hey, I don't wanna kill if I don't have to" said Arthur, meeting Lillith's gaze. "Maybe she can help us.."

Liberty shot a confused look at Lilith. Why are we not killing her? "What are you doing?" she whispered, her tone slightly angry. I thought this was a killing mission, not a rescue one!

"Seeing if there's an alternative" said Arthur calmly.

"You know I love alternatives. What's your idea, exactly?"

"Are you saying that I'd go on the run? With you?" Celeste showed a small amount of disgust.

"Ouch." She snickered, obviously not too hurt.
