Huh,what happened?

I am falling from the cliff with the height if at least 50 feet, as I look down, there is a stream, and there is a yelling voice, and it was a broke and manly voice.

"Selena noooo," it looks like Alex's voice because of the stream below and air pressure. His voice is blurred. I am too scared to look downwards, who can look into the eyes of their death.

I am no exception, thinking about the reason I jumped from the cliff I thought brother, I want you safe. I looked up to see Alex trying to use his magic to save me but its water below and few trees on the side of the cliff. Alex's power doesn't work on a place with no earth element just like now, no doubt, there is the earth beneath the water, but water overrules that part of the eath.

He fell on his knees and started crying, I hadn't seen Alex cry in my entire life except when mom went missing, I was three years old, and he cried severely, I feel sad but proving he was real. I had no other choice than to do it.

The royal palace, 15years back, I saw a small Alex who was the most handsome kid and chubby as well he was five years old, yes he is two years old than me, yet I call him Alex hehe.

I am seeing Alex cry when my many took me out, and I was playing with flowers in the garden. I had a habit of looking for my brother, and when I saw him, he was crying under a tree.

I tapped the many shoulders and moved forward to tell her I want to walk. She was pretty used to me and my antiques, so let me stand me on the ground. She set straight my dress, yes I am wearing a gown and then checked my shoelaces.

I got hold of her gown and stabilized myself, then let go of her dress and walked myself more like ran, making my nanny shout.

"Your highness, please walk slow, or you will fall."

She said with a scared voice worried about my security. I paid no heed to her words and rn to the brother who was alone and crying. I ran fast, and at the last moment, my foot slipped, and I fell on my brother.

He is so in thoughts that when I stumble on him, he jolted as if he came out of view. He looked around and looked towards me. My nanny also reached there after some time, and Alex wiped his tears and said

"nanny, why is Selena running around, and why are you not with Selena? what if something happened to her?"

Alex said with a stern face. He learned how to be a perfect crown prince since birth. he turned and looked at me with care in his eyes, yet his cold face always scared me, and I started crying

"sor-ry, I wa-nt al-ex," (sorry, I want Alex)

I said in my childish voice, making Alex's face go away, and I thought.

'yay, scary brother is gone.'

he turned to look at nanny who was scared for her life as she slacked, well she didn't but my brother's glare was making her nervous os I decided to divert his attention while thinking

'scary brother be gone.'

I tugged his sleeve and said while using my small hands to gesture the thing I wanted to say.

'al-ex, m-e pl-lay" ( Alex.me ,play)

he poked my chubby cheeks and then looked towards nanny while saying,

"you can leave, I will take care of the princess."

the nanny ran away right after brother said that I turned to look at a brother and saw him crying again. I brought up my hands to his cheek and whipped the lone tear that escaped from his eye.

"al-ex no cr-ry" (Alex no cry)

I said with sadness, and Alex wiped his tears and ticked me, making me forget every single worry.

The Dreamworld, falling from the cliff, I a falling with constant speed, well except god no one can save me, so I decided to curse everyone I want since death was near and I closed my eyes not wanting to face it.

The face of dad and Alex appeared in front of me, I never see mom or another uncle for some reason, the brother said they went away, but where no one knows. Even at this moment where people generally shout mom, I dont also remember who my mom was.

the constant shouts of people and children who bullied me filled my ears, and those words of my bullies were

"hah, a daughter of a traitor."

"dont talk to her, her mother ran away with her uncle."

"she is a curse to the kingdom, the first princess to be powerless, and then the queen is gone."

those words were hurting me badly, and I shouted

"no, I am not a curse, I dont know about my mom but its not my fault."

I was so engrossed in the memory that I lost the last fragments of reality, but a sudden shouting and argument got me back to to the existence and those arguments as

"you, it's your fault that she is doing this" someone yelled it was a man voice, huh it must be Alex.

"How will I know that she can't distinguish between illusion and reality" a feminine voice with sadness and disappointment laced with it said.

"Who told you to make her face trail so early, and why was I used as bait?" Alex yelled again, and then there was magic in the air. After a few minutes, there was a scream saying.

"mum for goodness' sake save Selena using nature magic of yours," which made me thought.

'mum? whose mum, what is going on?'

I was falling, and in a few minutes, I will meet my end. I know that, so I closed my eyes while waiting for my death when a branch of the tree saved me and pulled me up.

The sudden grasp of the tree made me squirm and try to free myself. I decided to open my eyes and see what the hell happened to me, in I was saved, by whom no idea.

then after few seconds of analyzing I was sure that I am free of death for a while as I was sure I couldn't get hurt, the branch send me upwards flying as if in the mortal world a human child send the football towards the goal flying which made me scream in fear and agony

"ahhh,"

after a few minutes, I was near the place where brother and ava were standing, and then I was pulled toward the death using gravity. When I was to hit the earth, gravity is less as if trying to avoid my hit, and Lazarus also appeared.

He pulled me up, and I was so scared that I went back and almost threw myself off the cliff again. This time the hand of my brother saved me, and he hugged me, and his grip was so tight that I felt suffocating.

I tapped on his shoulder, and then we separated, he had his stone face on even though with his face it was visible that he cried, ah he will never change, and I am getting a lecture as well.

"Why did you it, do you want to dir me by shock?"

He said in an angry voice, and he has his visible pout on his face, a line was evident on his forehead, and he looked like a wounded lion, ready to kill all who dare hurt his family.

'i was right, yay, time to get lectured.'

"answer me !?" he shouted, making me flinch, he is never this much anger, and now I am scared of him.

"brother I faced illusion which had fake, I was scared that I would meet fake again," I told with tearful eyes and sorrowful voice. He went to his favourite form, the crown prince, and with an eyebrow raised he said

"Does that mean you jump from a cliff, wait you used what I said years back, didn't you?"

He said in recognition, and then I nodded confirming what he said, and we both turned to face ava who was alone, Lazarus seems to vanish in the air.

"ava, why do I have to face trial?" I asked with anger and confusion visible on my face. I tried to find details on why I have to face that.

"Selena I can only tell you that it's important," she said with an approving impression.

"But why?" I asked and tried to inquire more when suddenly Lazarus appeared and said

"ava we need to get them out of the dream he is coming, and I dont want them in danger?" he said while hinting him but who is him and why is he after ava.
