When I go into her room, Sequoia looks angry. He's done it. This is the last time he will make fun of her. She looks away and turns a paper over.

“ what are you doing?” I ask.

“ I have a plan,” she says and flips over the paper again so I can see it and she starts to read.

“ We poison him. Put Japel in his alcohol.

we run away. Leave, never to return. Me, you, and Cedric, if they want to come. We disguise a maid as me and leave. We pick up Cedric on the way. We can go to Rivera city. We leave and tell people in Custos that he is wasting money and getting drunk every night and that he is getting his daughter, me, married at 31.

I want revenge. And now I'm going to get it.” she says with that frightened look in her eyes. The way they glitter and glint evilly. Their unmistakable green almost turned to black. She is scary when she is like this but she is right. Father must pay. And revenge is it.

“ hold on. Are you really going to do any of this?”

“ yes. I will do it and I will succeed.”

“ ok. If we were to do this the best idea would be to run away and disguise the maid because I saw that girl at dinner. We could go to Rivera City and we could tell them that the king is going crazy. That one seems to be the most likely one to work.” I say.

I don’t believe that we will actually go through with this. Maybe we could.

“ This is the chance and we have to take it. If you don't want to do it then fine but I will do this.

It is my chance to do something.” sequoia says to me.

I get up and walk out. I don't want her to do it but I don't want the king to do anything worse. I don't know what to do. I head to my chambers and choose my softest set of nightclothes. I go to the bathroom, undress and get into the huge bathtub. I turn on the water and then get in. I need something to relax. I hop back out and put on a towel. I go into my bed chamber and look on the shelves to find just the right book.

I chose Silent Red to read. I get back into the tub and lay back to relax. It turns out that the book is about a girl that has an arranged marriage and wants to escape it so she flees to the city of Hortus and there is a fight at Hortus and she survives and ends up becoming a message carrier and she always wears a red cloak so she is called Silent Red.

That gives me an idea. This time instead of putting the idea down on paper where anyone can find it, I write it in this ink I found in my stepmother's old room, in my arm. I tested it on paper and I found that first, you have to write the name of the only person you want to be able to read and see it. Then you have to write your message and then you write your name at the bottom. It is basically a better version of invisible ink. I write my idea down, fold it, and seal it with wax and then I creep to Sequoia’s room and stealthily slide it under her door.

Maybe we can do this.
