The room is covered in dark green vines, you can see the faintest speck of the stone wall. The floor is uneven, broken gray stone and there is a man sitting in the middle with there legs cross and closed eyed. Some knocks on the thick wooden door that it stuck against the vine clad wall, it's the same boy that was in my room!
The man on the floor opens his eyes and I see the same candy apple green eyes, Candy Apple, he swirls are rose pink, not like I imagined. The boy walks in and inclines his head,
"Lord Xand, I have gotten back from the mission you sent. The girl reacted perfectly to the note and, well, she . . . um . . ." The boy trails off and Candy Apple give him a pointed glare,
"She what?"
"I think she somehow saw me when I was invisible. She was staring straight at me and her eyes swirled strangely." Candy Apple snapped up at the the last sentence.
"Are you sure?" The boy nods, a small smile appears on his face,
"Thank you, Zephyr." The boy, Zephyr nods and leaves the room.
Candy Apple stands up and walks back and forth on the uneven stone floor. His hand rub his chin thoughtfully and the other scratches his head,
"This can't be good. Would she actually be? No, that's not possible!" Candy Apple argues with himself, he shakes his head while rubbing his chin.
I gasp and snap open my eyes, I was in another dream but this time that boy, Zephyr that was in room what there. It has to be a harmless dream, nothing else. After yesterday I think I will hole up inside and draw the day away, that's a perfect plan! I bounce out my bed and almost step on Hydra in the process, she looks up and barks.
"Morning!" I say cheerfully, Hydra nods and puts her head down closing her large eyes.
Must be tired after yesterdays affair, I'm in the mood to draw and will draw my worries away. I grab a blueberry muffin and throw myself at my desk and pull out my sketch book and chewed pencil.
Before I can scribble anything the doorbell rings, I sigh and launch myself up. I dash downstairs and fling the door open, I see a box on the front step but nobody insight. How odd. I stare at the box, it doesn't have an address or name, only badly taped seams and a coffee stain on the side. There are black swirls around it, I try to move the box but it burns me the second I touch it. Even more odd.
I'll deal with it later, nothing is going to ruin my drawing mood, not even a stupid box! I close the door and walk back to my desk, I sit down and start drawing.
The lines swirl and colour mixes creating Zephyr, how I saw him the first time in my room with the blue-green swirls around him. Another knock on my door snaps me out of my trance of staring at Zephyr, this time I walk downstairs and open the door slowly. I look around and see nothing, not even the box from earlier, oh well. I close the door and walk back to my room, on my desk is my sketch book but no picture of Zephyr. I left it right there!
Where did it go?
I walk closer to the desk and see a faint blue-green swirl on my desk, that means the real version of Zephyr was here. He must've taken my sketch of him and the stupid box.
What is he doing?
Am I going crazy or does Zephyr, the swirls and my dreams all connect? If they do it's not humanly possible, there is no such thing as purple men. And what about that vision from the paper, I can't be going crazy. There is no way I would just blackout from touching it and have a made-up dream.
After searching every inch of the house to make sure I didn't leave it anywhere of Hydra toke it, I flop on the couch and fall into a little cat nap.
I hover over some man running through stone halls, the walls are lit with weird orange orbs and there are vines around them. He has dark looking hair tied back, markings like Zephyr all over his arms and exposed parts from under his black wrapped clothes. As he runs I follow like I am connected with a invisible cord. I also notice I can't see swirls as the man runs down the twisting vines plagued walls with those orange orbs. Finally he stops and knocks on an open door covered in vines, the same one from the last time I saw Candy Apple or 'Xand'.
"Enter." A voice rumbles, the man enters and I am pulled to float behind Candy Apple, I see the man I was following was in fact Zephyr.
He doesn't seem winded from the running, only pride flashes in his yellow eyes.
"Lord Xand, the experiment worked perfectly, she touched the box and seemed to be hurt touching it. You were right, she is one of them." Zephyr explains, whispering the last part like its a unspoken thing.
"What's that in your hand?" Candy Apple says, I immediately look down and see something as well.
"I found this in her room and thought you might want to see." Zephyr hands over the thing into Candy Apple's huge hands.
I see a flash of white then my sketch of Zephyr with his blue-green swirl, its all crumbles and has splotches of something on it. Candy Apple stares at it and mutters something under his breath,
"Thank you Zephyr," Zephyr nods and leaves the room leaving Candy Apple and I, not that he can see or hear me.
"That confirmed everything, she can see the essence of things, more powerful than the ones here." Candy Apple explains to himself,
"We have no other option." Candy Apple says.
I am instantly thrown out of the dream thingy, what doesn't he no other option for? I stare out the window and see the sky is bright and cheery, I stare that the clock and gasp. It says 10:30 AM, I fell asleep after eleven. So I just slept through yesterday! Must've been tired.
