Fairy Tale part 2

This is part two, or the conclusion of the fairy tale from yesterday.
WARNING: DO NOT READ ON UNLESS YOU HAVE READ YESTERDAY'S POST

Song: The tide is high by Blondie




James stared at the woman that came in with Dana. He knew it was the woman from the woods, yet he could not believe it. Her hair now brushed and washed framed her face with brown curls. The blue dress she wore matched the light blue in her deep eyes. Her face had soft features and a winning smile, and aside from the bandage around her head, was one of the most beautiful faces James had ever seen. The woman sat down in the seat next to James, as Dana instructed her, and Dana sat on his other side. James. himself, was at the head of the table. The first course was brought in by the servants, chicken with potatoes. The woman's face lite up at the sight.
"Chicken and potatoes? That's my favorite."
"Well then," James said happy she remembered something."Have a generous helping."He piled some onto her plate, she dug in. "So," he continued. "You remembered you favorite foods, do you remember anything else?" The woman swallowed then spoke.
"Not really."
"Well let's see," Dana spoke. "She saw the chicken and remembered it was her favorite food. Maybe if we name off names she might remember her name."
"Sounds like a good idea," the woman said.
"Ok, um....Elaine, Ally, Sarah, Hannah, Samantha, Ashley?" Bryan listed.
"No, none of them sound familiar."
"You know what," Dana started. "You look like an Emma."
The woman nearly choked on the chicken she was chewing. She started coughing, James patted her back. She took a drink of water then spoke.
"That's my name. Emma."
Emma, James thought. What a pretty name.
Emma crawled into bed. Thinking about the day. She had met a prince, discovered chicken and potatoes,and found out her name. She had nothing to compare it to, but it was a very exciting day. Though she couldn't remember anything up until she met Dana. Speaking of Dana, she thought as Dana opened the door and peeked in.
"You ok, dear?"
"Yes, thanks Dana."
"Good night Emma," she said as she started to close the door.
"Dana?"
"Yes?" She said opening the door again.
"What happens to me now?"
"Well the prince wishes you to stay here until you can remember things again."
"Ok, goodnight Dana."
"Goodnight dear."Dana said closing the door as she left. Emma snuggled back under the covers and drifted into sleep.
Emma ran through the woods, a beast after her. She knew it was a dragon, yet it seemed more familiar than that. She thought, for some reason, it was someone she disliked, and feared. No matter who, or what it was, she kept running. The dragon was closing in, she could feel it's hot breath. She turned to look and fell. Emma awoke with a start, she felt as if what she had just dreamed about had happened before. There was a knock on her door and Dana's head popped in.
"Oh good you're up. Prince James is going into Town and wants to know if you want to go."
"Yes please," Emma threw the covers off and jumped out of bed. Maybe there would be more to awake memories.
Dana watched as the carriage left the castle. Hopefully this outing would bring new feelings between the two. Dana loved playing matchmaker, and this was no different. However if Emma wasn't a princess if they fell in love, their hearts would be broken. Though Lady Elaine wasn't a princess. At the mention of her name, Dana grimaced. She was not a good match for James at all. Now Emma, Dana could feel it in her heart that these two were meant for each other. It was the same feeling she had about the King and Queen when they met. It was her gift, she hadn't been wrong yet. She also had a feeling that Emma was a princess. She hoped this wasn't going to be the one time that she was wrong.

Well homework is calling me so part three will be tomorrow, or later tonight. Depends.
