Cinderella paced the room slowly with the fussing infant in her arms and the infant in her belly twisting. She was tired and agitated and wanted it to end. All of it. The child in her arms of course was not hers. It was Anastassia's. The woman was unattractive herself. Cinderella would be the first to state it. But the woman did make a beautiful child.
However, for mentioned child was not so beautiful right now. It had been screaming for the past half hour and Cinderella had tried everything she could think of. Nothing was working. It did not help the situation that Cindy was pregnant or that the loss of her prince was still fresh. Even now her step sisters forced these sorts of chore on her.
She growled under her breath and jostled the baby maybe a little too hard bringing a louder wail from the child. Sighing, Cinderella repositioned the baby with its head on her shoulder. She stopped walking now and instead, rocked in place side to side. "I wish someone would take this baby." She muttered to herself. No one else would touch the child for fear of Cinderella step mother.

Jarethen was watching over his kingdom that over looked the labyrinth that was between his brothers & his kingdoms, it was hard to think that depending on who got the child then it was the then decided to who would get it, but it normally went to who came to the call. Though his brother crafted goblins form the children, Jarethen on the other hand grew knights form them, some rode dragons & others did not, but that is just the start of him & his brothers differences, he was perhaps harder in his ways, but it make his kingdom stronger or so he said.
His brother was away for the time & he would cheek in to his kingdom to see all was well & good of course, at least that is when he felt the call, the words that he always enjoyed & with the fall he would send out those that would see to the child being brought to to him. So now it was just the matter of waiting for his knights to return to him with the child, he was a hard man at times, but children he had more time or he was not as hard on them to start any way.

Cindy felt that she was not alone before she saw them. Still they startled her. When they showed herself Cindy gave a gasp and she stiffened noticeably. "Who are you?" She asked in a strong voice. Cinderella had always been a strong woman. She looked over these 'men' Cindy had never seen them before. Remarkably, the baby had stopped crying. "We are here to rid you of the burden of the child." The one closest to her said in a low voice. Cindy took a step back slowly.
Her hands tightened on the baby. "What are you talking about?" Cindy retorted now. "There is no burden. The baby is not a burden to me!" The man that spoke smirked now as the others started to close in an her. Cindy felt that she may need to fight soon. "You wished for someone to take the baby. We are here to grant your wish." Cindy shook her head. "I didn't mean it. I don't want anyone to take the baby!"
The man did not miss a beat. "You do not have a choice." He reached for the baby now and Cindy jerked away with a growl. "No!" She barked now. Her heart beat picked up. "You can't have the baby!" Cindy was trying to think of something to do. "Take me instead." Her eyes widened at her own words. What had she just offered? What had brought her to this point? Where she would offer herself in place of a child of her step sister's? Was it the mother in her that made her want to protect this child?

Jarethen had waited for his guards to come back when they did not right away, he signed they must have been held up or that, some times even so called guards could not do as told, he rose from where he was to set out to meet his men on where they where. He came in on an interesting scene, though his men did well in saying what they came form & that it was clear they would cared out there orders with or with out her what, he heard her words on taking in in place it was tempting, but what did he need her for & he could see she was with child so it only added more of a burden since with out her wishing for the child to be taken he could not take then to do as he chooses with them.
He was dressed in leather pants, with a green silk shirt with a leather jacket on it with a high caller on it & his hair muck like his brothers was spiked up in areas & fanned out around him, his jacket had jewels swan into it to give it more detail & look to it. His boots where leather & laced up the side, of his in side they where calf high. He approached the group not taking a though to stop or say anything "What do we have here?" The guards heard there masters words they held there ground, but they gave space for him as well.

"What do we have here?" The voice asked and Cindy turned toward the man with the baby struggling in her arms what with how tightly she was holding it. Again, she did not know who the man was, but with the way the other were looking at him, it was clear this man was above him. Cindy let her eyes move over him sizing him up. "She won't give the child over." one of the men told the new comer. "She offers herself instead." Cindy shivered. She was sure that she had just offered her soul.
"Please." She said now trying to reason. "I did not mean what I said. I have been through so much. This is not even my child." How could she make the understand? She started backing away now. Trying to move towards the door to the room so that she could run and get help.

Jarethen did not care the look Cindy gave him, it was clear she was unsure not only who he was, but also what she was suppose to do.
He heard his men's words, of course he was not sure how much he would take her offer of her self, most the time he saw women as nothing but trouble at least most the time. "Didn't you? For you did say it so part of you in fact meant it & many have been threw much yet they have yet to say what you did. As for not being your child, it still makes no difference at least to me & my men"
He watched her there was the look of the want to run to get away, but that would not be happening at least not far any way & she could leave so long as she gave up the child. He approached closer to her, deciding if she made a run for it he did not wish to give her more time to put space between him & his men, it was clear his men thought the same, for they knew there job & it was to take the child, because there lord said nothing about taking her.
"We will be taking the child one way or another, unless you can give me reason that you are a better choose" He would not steep down when it came to what he was breed to do, his big part in this world, of course that did not mean he would not find enjoyment to see what this woman would say when it came to how she thought that he would take her over the child.

"I didn't mean it!" Cindy snapped at the man now. "Damn it you can't have the baby!" He continued on as if she had not spoken. "We will be taking the child one way or another, unless you can give me reason that you are a better choose" Cindy gave him a look that clearly said that he could kiss her rear but she spoke anyways.
"A reason why I'm better?" She sneered at him. "Do you really need a reason??" Cindy's voice rose. "Take me instead. I'm not playing games with you here. You can not have the baby. You don't need the baby. It was an mistake that I said anything." Cindy was shaking now but she was not sure if it was from anger or fear.
"Stop playing games. I am not handing over this baby." Cindy tried to keep herself from loosing it all together but she didn't know how much longer she was going to last.

Jarethen heard her words, though it did nothing to stop him in his actions as he smirked that was not very kind "Let make it clear, I will be taking the child even if you do not wish it" He was not going to give her a chance to give him a reason now, since it was boring to him now. Chuckling he looked at her "Of course I always can use the baby, so you cannot tell me that I do not need the child" He smirked "You still spoke it & I am not leaving with out the child" He did not fear her at all, he moved closer to her trying to also give his men a chance to circle her & give him more level to take what he wanted.

Cindy tried to come up with a plan quickly but could not. The only thing she could think of was to run so that was what she did. She turned on her heel and holding the baby tight to her, she bolted. Her running had clearly not been expected as she barreled through two of the goblin`s knocking them back. She ran from the room and the baby at been shook with her running, began to cry again. Cindy ran as she tried to look around and see where was the best place to hide. There did not seem to be anywhere or anyone in the castle that could help her. Cindy did not know what to do. Her mind was not even fully her own after all that had happened. Finally, she hurried into a bedroom. Cindy place the baby in a basket and then slid the basket under the bed before straightening up and turning to face the door.

Jarethen saw her run, he moved to fallower after her his gaurds fallwed after him he used his magic to find Cindy he found her, in a room yet the door was locked he looked at his gaurds "Break it down" With that his gaurds moved to do as ther ruler asked, the door would give at one point or another, so he just waited for the door to break down & him to claim what he was after, the bady the only thing he wanted he did not care on the girl she was not the issue other than geting in the way. His dragon gaurds moved to hit into the door with there shoulders to start before, stopping to get a axe they saw on the wall before he moved to start cutting it down, yet they knew to do well to not harm the child withthere actions.

Cindy heard the banging on the door and her keen ears picked up the chopping of the axe against the door. The baby was crying loudly and Cindy was wishing for the child to be silent. He would find the baby for sure. Cindy deliberately moved away from the baby's hiding spot towards the far end of the room and into a corner and there she waited. When they forced their way into the room, Cindy held her ground. When she saw him enter, she growled lowly. "You just don't know when to give up do you?" She snarled at him.

As Jerethen entered the room he had his gaurds, stand at the door to insure Cinderella did not get out & away. He heard her words & smiled "Not when I know I will win, now this is the last chance I give you... give me the child... you gave up the right to fight for him when you wished the child away, that is not my fault... it is yours" He moved closer his eyes narrowing "The child will be mine one way or another"

"Never." She hissed at him. "I will never give the baby to you. You pathetic peasant." Cindy was normally so sweet. She had not forgotten her roots and where she had come from. She had been made into the lowest of the lowest. But she was a princess now. She was royalty and this man was an intruder and as horrible as her step sister were to her, this baby was family.
So what came next was family instinct. One hand balled into a fist and she delivered a sharp punch directly to his nose. There was a collective shocked silence and then three off the guards came forward quickly to restrain her. They pulled her down to the floor and with hand tightly in her hair, held her there. Cindy grimaced in pain.

Jerethen was supprised at Cindys actions as she struck him none had been willing to try he drew back form her of course due to the sock, however his gaurds where quick to get Cindy under control he had to use magic to heal his noise form what just happened. He then looked to Cindy as he looked at them both "Take them both back to the castle" He desided that she could be dealt with there & in would be on his grounds as well a place she did not know "And once you get her there restrain her, until I desided what is to be done with her" His anger was great, he was worse than his brother where he could kill a person, but for now he wanted the child & as for Cindy he would desided what to do with her.

Cindy heard his order and she looked up at him from the floor. "No." She whispered. Not for herself but for the baby. Before she could say anything else however, they were gone. Seconds later they appeared in a large castle. She knew right away that this was not her castle. The castle was dark and foreboding. The guards hauled her to her feet and began to force her forward down a shadowy hallway. Cindy was scared. The baby was nowhere to be seen or heard.
She was forced down a flight of stone steps and into the dungeon of the castle before the guards pushed her roughly into a bare stone cell. The shove one gave her knocked her from her feet and she grunted as she hit the hard floor. The guards moved forward to chain her around her wrists and then the door slammed shut with a resounding clang. Then she was alone. Cindy instantly struggled against the chains but it was no use. She gave out a piercing scream of anger and frustration and then began to cry in the dark.
