Percy paced back and forth; he was going to get revenge sooner or later. He was going to take something from that rabbit, Leo. He was going to do something big, something that Leo loved dearly. But what did Leo love?
He smiled, Tara. Leo loved Tara and would do anything for her. Percy laughed as he thought of a plan, a perfect plan. Of course, he couldn't hurt Tara, but what about her sister. Yes, Percy stepped over to his little brother, who was lounging by the fire. His brother was brown with white splotches and the darkest brown eyes; a double-sided battleax lay on the floor beside him.
"I have a plan, Marcellus," Percy said, chuckling at the idea.
'What is it, Percival?" Marcellus said, uninterested.
"So, this Leo happens to like Tara, he would do anything for her or her family. So, this is where my plan comes in. I am going to kill Tara's sister." Percy then laughed at his genius idea.
Marcellus looked at him and chuckled sightly. Then they looked at each other for a minute before Percy said, "Let's get to work."
Aliegha lay in bed; she had not been able to sleep after the king and Abbi left. The prince, Captain Massie, and all of them that had come had been nice, but she still couldn't sleep. She didn't want to have that dream again. She sat up slowly and winced as a sharp pain shot down her back. Her back still hurt pretty bad, but it was feeling better.
She cocked her ear as she heard the door opening; she hoped it was Abbi. It wasn't Abbi, but it was a doe. She was average in height with long golden fur, brown tipped ears, and hazel eyes that leaned more toward green. The doe was wearing a long pink dress with a darker pink ribbon tied around her waist in a perfect bow; there was also a matching bow on the doe's ear. The dress was elegant and beautiful, and so was the doe.
The doe smiled as she walked into the room and towards the bed where Aliegha lay. Aliegha smiled back at the doe as she said, "Who are you?"
"I'm Gabriella," the doe said quietly as she added, "Abbi said that she will be here in a minute, and I, I just wanted to see how you felt."
"I feel much better, thank you," Aliegha said.
Gabriella smiled as she nodded her head, "Good."
Abbi then came into the room, a big grin on her face. She then ran over to the bed and said in excitement, "The doctor said you could actually walk some today! But first, we need to get you some clothes because that is not going to work." Abbi waved at the ruined dress draped across a chair, and then at the nightgown, Aliegha was at this moment wearing.
Aliegha smiled at Abbi. "Okay," she said.
Abbi walked over to the big decorative wardrobe and opened it. Aliegha's eyes widened when she saw all the dresses in the wardrobe. Gabriella walked over to Abbi, and Aliegha watched as they whispered to each other and looked at the dresses. She heard Gabriella say, "No, that one isn't right." Or "No, that one would clash with her fur." After a while, Abbi pulled out a beautiful robin egg blue dress. The dress had beautiful lavender flowers that went around the hem of the skirt and sleeves. A lavender ribbon tied around the middle of the dress, and a matching shawl hung with the dress.
Gabriella then said, "Yes, that's perfect!"
Aliegha then watched as the two does walked over to her. They helped her out of bed. The pain was a little intense at first, but it felt better once she was on her feet. The two does then helped her get dressed. Once she was dressed, Abbi took one of her hands, and Gabriella took the other, and they walked her over to a mirror. Aliegha looked at herself in the mirror. The dress was beautiful; she looked beautiful.
Tears came to her eyes, but these weren't tears of sadness; these were tears of happiness and joy. She looked at the two does as she wrapped the shawl around her shoulders.
"This is just the beginning," Gabriella said with a smile.
Aliegha hugged them both. "Oh, thank you, thank you so much!" Aliegha then backed away and pulled the necklace out of the dress, so it showed. It reminded her of her brother Leo. Oh, how much she missed him.
Then Gabriella and Abbi grabbed her hands and pulled her out of the room, giggling. Aliegha sighed. Her heart was full of so much joy; she didn't know what to do with it.

Aleigha is so happy and it makes me so happy! I love it!!!! Gabriella and Abbi are so sweet!
As for feedback, I was thinking... maybe if you switched the order so that the menacing and ominous first section with Percy was actually at the end, that would be the thing readers leave with and would act as a cliffhanger. So yeah - that's all I was thinking. :)) Maybe this isn't helpful cause you already wrote it... sorry if so!
This was an awesome chapter!
