"sorry resa she got through... iwas out side practicin my craft..."

Meanwhile...


He had really meant to lock her up, but he left the keys all the way upstairs, and wouldn't she please just be a good little kidnapp-ee and stay in her dank little cell? It was in this way that the princess came to be wandering about the villain's lair, seeking fervently for some sort of exit. Rather than a sprawling dungeon of depraved evil, it resembled the "bachelor pads" she had heard the palace chambermaids refer to on occaision. Yes, she thought, stumbling over another mound of old pizza boxes, an overgrown bachelor pad. Passing a dusty mirror, she paused to consider her reflection. In the days since she had been brought here, her long green hair had grown less lustrous, and her delicate tiara seemed to have lost its shine. She sighed; she had wanted to look her best for when the heroes arrived to save her, and hoped her father would allow her to be courted by the bravest and handsomest of them. But why were they taking so long? The apathetic resonance of the place was beginning to take its toll on her, and she plopped down amid a collection of half-empty cans of Evil-Cola and some really old computer games. She knew she should keep looking for a way out, but what was the point, really?

*jumps and falls back screaming and gasping, a very deep blush* Hey, I wasn't....I was just....it isn't...*pants and takes a deep sigh*...just forget it....*hmphs and takes a step out of the tent and stands sighing and trying to let the cool night air ease her tensions*...I can't believe this...*whispers*

"huh, what was she doing in there" What was the screaming everyone asks? "oh that... bad dream, did I miss something"

"anyways I guess you should take watch since you dont sleep anyways. Tori sleep where you want, I'm going back to bed"

*later that night* AAHHH!!!"Fire...hot...burning!"

Oglbib noticed something moving in the super-high tech cameras set up throughout the castle. He got up and started moving around, which he hadn't done in a while. He moved to the palce where the thing had moved and noticed someone there. Dammit, I know my lackies are bad at their jobs, but this is pathetic, he thought, staring at the green-haired princess. He pulled out a note pad and wrote in big letters: FIRE CURRENT LACKIES, GET BETTER ONES, POSSIBLY ONES THAT WORK FOR FREE. He sighed, not quite knowing what to do, "You know, you can do what you want..........as long as it doesn't involve escaping."

*she nods, but then again...too on her gaurd to ever find sleep, she slowly climbs a tree's branches out of sight. She sits in it's dark shadows and watches still*...I can't believe I was such a fool...*sighs and pinches herself*...your a fool tori!...a fool!...*whispers to herself*

The next morning
"wake up its time to save the princess"

*falls out of the tree half dead*...sleep...*she groans as she stands and rubs her eyes, she glaces at the glinting morning sun and yawns*...

The princess was busy working her way straight into a deep blue funk.
"Go away," she said sullenly. "I'm working myself into a deep blue funk, and that totally does not go with my outfit."
Where were those legendary warriors the palace bards had always spoken of in their glorious tales? Princess taken, villain gloats, heroes triumph...it should add up to a happy ending, but something must have gone wrong.
"I'm not going to escape. I bet nobody even knows I'm gone. The heroes will never come to save me, 'cause I'm not a good enough princess." Her lip began to quiver. "Maybe my hair is the wrong color? Should it be pink? Is that more princess-y? Should I be screaming? I don't like screaming. It hurts my throat and my ears and it's probably a stupid scream anyway. Does this dress make me look fat? It does, doesn't it!? What do you know, you're just a stupid villain anywaaaaay~!" The princess began to sob buckets of tears, for some reason clinging to oglbib and drenching his villainous attire.

"fine sleep, we will just go on without you" *already leaving*
