keeping up a fear ances

No ones pov:
"It always starts the same way" Eda says

"I wake up gasping in someplace dark"

Eda looks around to find herself in a shadowy void

She stands up and looks around with a frightened expression, A shadow flashes past behind her and She turns around to look at it

"And then it appears"

The Owl Beast appears and it steps on the ground, causing it to shake

Its neck stretches towards Eda, stopping in front of her, and screeches

Eda cries out in surprise, then turns around and runs away, panting and crying

She opens her eyes to the healer, from the Healing Coven, and her mother

"And eventually... I wake up and I know I turned into... that thing" Eda says

"I see.... Here, take this" they hand over a large gem to Eda, "It will tell you when the beast's energy is bubbling to the surface, Also, I hear gems are quite fashionable for young witches"

"Oh, what a beautiful little stone" edas mother says

She turns to the healer, "now, May I speak with you outside?" She ushers him outside, "Just a minute, hon"

Eda's mom closes the door and outside the room, she starts scolding the healer

Eda gets up and eavesdrops on their conversation behind the door

"What the hell was that!? I thought you were in the Healing Coven, not the Bauble Brigade" she yells

"Mrs. Clawthorne, we have never seen a curse quite like this.... I'm not sure it can be healed, Perhaps if we consult the Potions Coven, they may know a way to keep it at bay?" The healer states

"Keep it at bay?- no! My daughter is suffering and I want that thing out!" Her tone turns sinister, "Cut it out if you have to"

Eda gasps and covers her mouth, She pants and clutches her chest, having a panic attack

But she then looks up and notices that her window is open, The wind blows, causing it to swing and squeak

Her mother pushes door open, "Edalyn, I'm taking you to someone else" She looks up, to see no one, "Huh?"

Gwendolyn notices the open window

Eda runs through the forest, She stops to catch her breath, then starts walking while looking around at the scene

"I never knew this was back here...." Eda says

Eda trips over something and falls down, She turns around to see what made her fell and pauses

Eda notices a suitcase buried in the sand, She picks it up and wipes off the dirt on its surface, revealing an eye shape

The eye then flashes then flies out of Eda's hand and folds open

a key turns the lock, unlocking the door and it reveals a portal leading to an unknown realm

Eda squints at it, "What?"

"Edalyn! Edalyn, is that you!?" Her mother yells

Eda hesitates, then runs through the portal, it folds up and disappears

Gwendolyn comes out from behind a bush and looks around, "Edalyn! Edalyn!"

Gwendolyn stops She looks down at the foot tracks with a sad expression, then looks up to her right with a determined expression
