"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! GET OUT OF MY ROOM!!!LEAVE ME IN PEACE!!"
The young girl's screams woke the entire school from its slumber, and many a rushing foot could be heard coming toward her room. Elementalist R'Virr lead the charge, as the mob of concerned teachers crowded her door to catch a glimpse.
Aquella sat on the bed, arms curled over her knees, head down, rocking slowly back and forth. Her eyes were closed, but a steady stream of silent tears trickled down her pale face.
"She seems to be sleeping." Dominary K'Jartan spoke softly, not oblivious to the cutting stares of her enemy R'Virr.
"Yes, but troubled is her mind, that much we can see." the Elementalist spoke as he moved to the bed to help her lie back down, "shhh... shhh.. hush now child."
Her tears abated, and a look of serenity came across her face as his hands touched her shoulders. The teachers all gave a sigh of relief, all but one that is. Her eyes narrowed and she watched the child slip back into sleep.
As they left, one by one, R'Virr watched Aquella with wonder.
"Who has done this to you child?" he wondered aloud to himself.
Closing the heavy oak door behind him, he turns and leaves the room. All is quiet for a moment, when a small wisp of red smoke floats in through the window. Swirling and materializing, the smoke transforms into a hooded man in black. He gazes at the sleeping half elf with wonder, eyes burning a vibrant and menacing red as he watches her breathe.
"Yessss...." he hisses, "I can feel the hate and power in you.... Aquella."
Pronouncing her name as if tasting it, he gently strokes her face as she sleeps.
"You will be mine. And together we shall rule the realm of evil. The Dark Prince and his beautiful, terrible princess."
With that, he faded back to the smokey substance he had come in as, and drifted out the window once more, leaving her crying in her sleep.
