Surviving A Dream

Chapter 11- She wants her stone

A small green stone. An emerald. A small, green and valuable stone. Emma stared at it. Amazed at the thought. It was beautiful.  A piece of magnificent nature. Was it enchanted?  Emma thought. It was her first time seeing a real emerald. She didn't know it was so beautiful in real life.

Then she heard a knock, a knock from the front door. She thought no other human was in this dream . Well she hoped it was a human. But she would be impressed if it was an animal. As she answered the door, she was pleasantly surprised it was a person. But it wasn't who she thought it would be. She thought it would be an old beggar woman, like in snow white. But it wasn't.

It was a young woman, with a small waist and beautiful face. Her eyes were as green as the emerald she held in her hand and skin a deep tan. Emma couldn't take her eyes off of the beauty of the woman. Just like she couldn't take her eyes off the gem. That woman had magic in her eyes, her clothes made of expensive silk and pearl jewellery were neatly displayed on her tanned neck. " Do you have it?" said the woman, in a rich but soft tone. You could hear her voice was soft enough to be safe with her presence, but it was also very rich and aromatic causing her to look fierce and intimidating.

Emma didn't reply she just stared at the woman, she was too intimidated to speak. So she didn't. She didn't know what the woman could do, or think. The woman stared back causing Emma to take a step back causing the woman to fully walk into the house and roam around the house freely. Enabling the woman to search around the house, knocking random things as she passed. Vases broke, figures smashed, expensive china clashing with the floor boards. Till she got to the small radio. Hoping something was inside. She shook it violently but all that came out was, a tape. Which wasn't there before. There was only an expensive gemstone in it. Not a tape.

Emma realised after a few moments. She wanted that stone! But- but why?

But Emma didn't think through the questions. She answered them without reasoning. She wanted the stone, to do something probably bad. So Emma hid the stone somewhere. So she wouldn't find it.
