2 new world
Queen Elizabeth is walking around in the sidewalk in front of the Abbey she doesn't know what to do where are all her properties and maids ! she is calling their names but no one shows up inside her heart she missed Cat though she died long before her definitely she knew what to do if she was alive.
"Cat" she whimpers without thinking she is confused and feels bad. People dressed up weirdly and glance at her like they are looking at a madwoman. She sees a shadow, a familiar dark shadow moving around on the corner of the sidewalk across the street.
"Mother?" she says with a shaky voice steps quickly toward the street everything is blurry. Something like a tick mid start to form around her. All voices are more like a whisper nothing is clear in front of her eyes and ears, A soft breeze strokes her cheek bones like soft kiss gentle and wet , she tries to focouse on the shadow starts to cross the street without looking or noticing any cars . It happened before , she had these visions long before she be the Queen herself , she remembers once saw her behind Curtains in her step mother's Anne of cleves castle when she was living with her for few weeks .
What is happening? what's wrong ? why all her old memories invade her mind so hard that she can't breath ! something is changing and she can feel it everything turns to a shadow in her mind running through her thoughts and soul . cars are crossing from her behind and front making loud noises and drivers are shouting at her, The only thing she could hear was her mind's whisper and her eyes looking for more shadows.
A taxi stops in front of her feet at the middle of the street feels bad for the lonely woman turning around herself.
" do you need a ride?"
The queen nods in confusion gets into the cab sighs " Richmond" the man nods and starts to drive Elizabeth frowns she can't understand what is happening where is she ? were her maids in Richmond waiting for her? where is her horse oh her favorite horse she missed it . once Cat told her she should be brave no matter what happens next and remember she is a king's daughter actually she wasn't queen in that time yet Elizabeth smiles tries to pulls herself together
" is this new carriage ?"
The Taxi driver chuckles
" yes, I think so , although carriages were so much better ."
Elizabeth frowns looks out takes a deep breath bites her lower lip taxi stands beside bunch of trees elizabeth looks at him
" where is the castle ? "
the driver laughs again not in a rude way he thinks she is joking or something
" I'm afraid nothing left from Richmond castle "
Elizabeth glances at him gracefully
"what do you mean? who hired you ? i haven't seen you around !"
the driver frowns " me? what do you mean? "
Elizabeth sighs gets quiet she can't have this conversation with stupid people like him. But she must definitely talk to his manager!
She gets off the car walking on the grass in Richmond thinks " the mad man was right " she said under her lips with low voice. A man was sitting in the corner reading news paper Queen gets closer to him raises an eyebrow
" Do you know what happened to my castle ? "
The man lifts his head up in boredom he was a man with no knowledge of history or anything related to joy in life he clears his throat
" Which castle ?" he asks doesn't really want to know the answer and Elizabeth notices that so let him go by nagging under her lips she suddenly sees two horse fasten to a carriage and a man who apparently its driver cause he is getting money from a fat old woman with the young child.
" Well , that the modern vehicle of mine " she steps toward the driver gracefully then gazes into his eyes when he turned to face her
" Can I have one of your horses ?" she asks in a calm firm voice the man grins at her politely like someone wants to be polite just to sell his own product.
" It's all yours , get on the carriage I'll give you a ride "
She sighs smiles again
" I need your horse " she insist . the man rubs his beard
"I'm afraid its impossible for you to ride with that gown "
Elizabeth nods
" I think so " she said in sarcastic way .
Meanwhile two teen boys come to ride with carriage .he left her alone to talk to them cause they more look like to give him money that this dressed up medical woman . Actually its even better for Elizabeth to untie the white one as she has once strokes his neck whispers in his ear with pation and greed " are you ready ? ha? little bit fun in this boring world ?" she jumps on it she starts to ride with a movement of her tiny legs the horse stands on his two legs moves his front legs into air let out a load neigh Elizabeth laughs makes him run as fast she can the driver yells and boys start to run after her she turns her face back to look at them shouts with a sharp clear voice
" I'll get it back!" she let horse run even quicker she is riding a horse after almost 500 years now and its not even a joke ! her curly red hair dance around her head against the wind she drowse a big smile on her face the horse runs so fast onto Hampton court clouds moved away from the moon let it shine and shows itself to the beautiful legend queen stars are smiling at her and a nice wind embrace her with pure love and no human lust. the Queen was here trees are bowing ground is happy again and birds are flying everywhere telling each other Elizabeth is back !
when she reaches to the Hampton she walks onto the gate fixes her skirt looks around people are thinking she is going to a special party or something she is looking for somewhere to tie the horse the driver gets out of a car aperantly teens boys he gets his beloved money make horse back elizabeth thanks him gntly the man nods with open mouth
" I haven't this much skill in riding before " he chuckles Elizabeth wants to go away he stopped her by calling her she turns to face her he raises an eyebrow
" you didn't pay "
" I'm sorry I should pay? tomorrow come and get your money from my study I have no money now "
The man frowns doesn't know what to say but teens told him they pay just let's go and they have no time to waist there so the driver walks away with them Elizabeth shrugs walks onto the gate she is tired and hungry that makes her touchy at the gate of the palace a man who stands there as security stopped her
" It's closed," he said
"What do you mean It's closed? you forget yourself Mr, get out of my way before I send you to the tower ! " she replies firmly before the man widened his eyes. He steps back but still didn't let her in.
"come back tomorrow I promise I let you In," he said in a nice way.
Another man with round black glasses on his eyes and a large brown book in his hand notices them. steps toward her,
" how someone can so look like her ?" he assumed
Walking toward her without thinking, it's like someone pulls him onto her with invisible strings. He takes off his glasses looks at her with respect
" Can I help you? " asks respectfully thinks even If she is drunk or something . she is wearing queen Elizabeth's gown so she definitely should be a historian or something.
Elizabeth shakes her head in anger
" they don't let me get into my own castle! Where are my guards! I need them right now!"
The man smiles " I'm sure they have a good reason for getting disappear come my name is Robert "
Hearing this name gives her goosebumps. Freeze's blood in her vessels stares into his eyes " You are not" she said coldly but smiles its ages from when he kicked him out from her court barely can remember him now, takes a deep breath takes his arm.
Robert notices why she is acting like this ( For few people who might not know I should explain this Robert reminds her of her lover, Robert Dudley )
As long as this Robert is a historian he can tell whatever she might think after a few moments he asks
" where did you find these clothes?"
Queen widen her eyes before replying " my maids gave me " And she received a loud chuckle instead of a proper reply.
Robert reaches out his hand to take her arm
" Can I offer you a drink ?" he asks politely gazes into her eyes innocently Elizabeth nods without thinking she knows she might regret this later but does it really matter? they start to walk away onto a cafe their shapes start to get far and farther in the dark moon's light which is shinning over them and makes them walk away like two special lovers. maybe two people who knew each other for a long time like 500 years ago?
