In a flash, Scarlet had a loaded crossbow pointed at the strange boy, which she’d just pulled from her pack. “What do you want?”, she growled, copper eyes glinting harshly.

"Whoa whoa whoa. Okay can we all just calm down here? We're all on the same side." Harper exclaimed, putting herself in between Cade and Scarlet.

Cade didn't back down. He chuckled, inching the knife closer to her. "I want a lot of things. I want information. I want my mom's family back. And…" He made a slitting motion with his free hand. "I want your head."

Scarlet tightened her grip in the crossbow. “Never stand on someone’s line of fire, Harper. You don’t know how accurately he can throw that knife. Get out of the way.”

Cade didn't back down. He chuckled, inching the knife closer to her. "I want a lot of things. I want information. I want my mom's family back. And…" He made a slitting motion with his free hand. "I want your head."

Scarlet took a step forward, keeping the crossbow pointed at his chest. “Do I look like I’m about to hand over my head? Drop the knife.”

Harper let her shoulders slump and she looked of in the distance like she was in office.(XD) "Oh for…………….both of you cool down. We can talk this out like civilized people."

“Harper. Step away.”

Quinn sprang up next to Scarlet, her blue eyes dangerous and guarded. She pulled out her two short swords. "Touch her and you're dead."

Harper sighed. "You guys do know that I have basically been living in the streets for the last seven years and could kill all of you within seconds, right?"

( More quirks! When they were all little, Quinn and Harper would pretend to be Scarlet's guards. . . so that's why they're so loyal and protective of her )

(YES! But Harper is more of a peace maker so she'll strategically situate herself in the middle of the situation so that she can protect everyone.)

aaah I love this so much theyère like a girl gang!

A faint whisper travelled to Cade’s ear, “Told ya so.”

Cade chuckled. "I'd like to see you try." He smirked at them. "Any friends of the princess are enemies of me." He jumped a little at the random whisper.

(Scarlet's the ring leader, Quinn is the mom-friend and fierce protector, and Harper is the peacemaker that can and will kill you if you mess with her friends. With a lot more qualities when put in detail.)

"Looks like someone has a death wish." Quinn replied, flashing a sarcastic smile.

Harper frowned. She pulled out her hidden swords. "We aren't your enemies here!"

"Drp the knife. Now." Scarlet repeated, voice low and threatening. The tip of her crossbow was now a foot from his chest.

( Quinn's also very good at finding her way. . . unlike her father who would get lost 24/7 )

lol

Harper sighed. If this got any further, she would have to resort to doing the thing she REALLY didn't like doing.

When Chelsea finished her story, before Willow could say anything, she disappeared.

He snarled. "Never." Cade switched his gaze so he was looking at the girl with the swords. "That's where you're wrong. The Queen murdered my mom's family and destroyed their home." Cade looked back at the princess. "Anything related to her must be eliminated. Permanently."

Scarlet took another step forward, the crossbow now inches from his chest. "Drop you [swearword] knife."

"You think I don't know that? My father died because of the Queen." Quinn replied, her deep blue eyes still hard and dangerous. Her father's watch swung back and forth at her side. "The Princess. . . she's different." She flinched. It was weird to use the old name for Scarlet that she was forced into using at the palace.

"Uh huh and the queen murdered my whole castl–" She covered her mouth. She had never told anyone, and never planned to.

Cade rolled his eyes. "Different. As if I'll believe that. The princess is probably using you. She's no better than the Queen herself." He looked at the princess and growled again.

“Your Highness is exactly like her mother.” Chelsea snapped, appearing out of nowhere. She stood right in front of Scarlet, Scarlet’s crossbow was a millimeter from Chelsea.
