The Masque of the Red Death [Open and ACCEPTING!!]

[Nick_austin90]

Nicholas was refreshed. He was clean and no longer shivering. Then he checked his watch and realized that it was time for breakfast. He headed to the dining room. To his surprise, no one had arrived yet.

"Hm, where could all the others possibly be," he mumbled.  

[ChompIified]

He was already washed and freshly clothed. He went out with the little monkey where the sun was bright. He took out a banana and fed split it in half. He gave the half to the mnkey and the other one for himself.

Scarlet sat on her bed shivering and she sneezed none stop.

Nymphadora was walking around making sure everyone was a counted for.  

[Nick_austin90]

Even though the sun was out and that he was dressed freshly, he still could not shake the cold feeling up his spine. Something was about to happen. That was what he felt. He looked around and walked to the kitchen. To his confusion, the kitchen was also empty but all the food for breakfast was ready.

"What is going on here?" He asked no one in particular and he went to ask her highness himself.  

[Rin128563]

Scarlet walked around coughing and sneezing. She tried to see if there was any medicen in the room but there wasn't any. She felt light headed and made her way to the bed before she would collapse.  

[Nick_austin90]

He knocked on the door and heard Scarlet sneeze. He went in to check.

"Your highness? Are you feeling well?" He asked.  

[Rin128563]

Scarlet looked up at him and shook her head slightly before falling back on the bed. She still shook and she began to get a fever.  

[Nick_austin90]

Nicholas began looking for medication and he found the medical box he used the day before. Lucky him, the content was full. All the other boxes he checked were empty and had been roughly rummaged.

"Here, eat a little and then swallow these pills," Nicholas said as he handed her a plate of soup and the pills with a glass of water. His brows furrowed under his mask and he felt silent.  

[Rin128563]

"But im not hungry," she said softly and pushed the bowl of soup away. It's been two day's since she's eaten, but she didn't feel hungry. In fact she really didn't know if she could even keep the food down. She has never gotten sick...this was the first time....it was very weird indeed.  

[Nick_austin90]

"Princess, you had better not tell me that you had contracted some disease have you?" Nicholas asked in an almost worried tone. The guests were already a worry and now their last royalty was sick. And they were on the sea and so far away from any land.

"You cannot fell ill so suddenly," he said and he hastened to get Nymphadora. She might know something and they both rushed to her side. Even she was taken by surprise at how her vassal was faring.  

[Rin128563]

"I'm sure i'll be fine...it's just a cold," she said softly.

"But my Lady you have never gotten sick before....this could be bad." Nymphador looked at her worried and and Nicholas as well.  

[ChompIified]

After he had finished eating, he went and checked them out. First he went to the Duke's cabin but nobody was there. He then headed to the Princess's cabin, it seemed something terrible had happened. He stayed outside to give them their privacy but the little monkey had hurried in to tackle his master.  

[Nick_austin90]

Nicholas was instantly distracterd by Henry's appearence and picked the small mammal up.

"Henry, where in the world had you beem gone too?" He asked in a surprised tone. Then he proceeded to look at Scarlet again. "Princess, it would not fare well if you are ill and everone knows. They might get panicked and wish that you are sent away, though I have yet to see anypeople out and about. That worries me too." He looked around in hopes that someone might just appear out of nowhere and he was not disappointed. He saw someone by the door. He went there.

"Ace, what a pleasant surprise. I didn't realise you were there. It is a great relief. Come in," he ushered the boy in and everyona sat by her highness's bed.  

[Rin128563]

"Dont worry im sure the cold will go away soon," she gave a weak smile and looked over at Nymphadora. "You should go check if the guests are all ok."

Nymphador nodded and bowed before leaving the room.  

[Nick_austin90]

Nicholas sighed.

"Princess, you can at least do us the favor of eating. If you don't eat how in the world would your body fight against the virus," Nicholas argued.
