Doragon akuma no dansu: Dance of the Dragon Demon

Chapter 2 :The Realm

I was falling deeper and deeper in to this whooshing portal, my hair whipped wildly around me with the force of the warping and falling and heart beat so fast against my cowering rib cage. i couldn't see a thing because everything was almost pitch black except Pretty orbs of light, blue, pink , and white seemed to float and flash around me as I fell spiral downwards. I was pulled left and right, back and forwards. Up felt down and down felt up. Time was stopped and gravity didn't exist. I felt skeletal arms grip around me from every angle of the portal. A crowd of cold and brittle feeling bony hands caressing and grabbing every part of my body. , it made me uneasy. My heart hammered furiously. I shunted to a halt in mid air like a car with dodgy breaks, before hitting a hard flat surface. I hauled myself up looking around, squinting my eyes, in the darkness all around me. It was hard to make out, but i was sure i could see something shimmering ahead of me. I looked around to see the skeletal arms had disapeared. Where could they have gone? This couldn't get any stranger,.. Could it? I stood up looking in the direction of the beautiful shimmering light I'd seen that danced harmoniously in the suffocating darkness, casting an eerie, yet gentle glow. slowly, I eased towards it, my heart still racing, Wondering what i stood before. As i gaze and follow the shimmering whizzing light, Warmth seemed to radiate from it, spreading throughout me giving me a pleasant peaceful feeling. I stretched my hand out to touch the light, Suddenly the shimmering light seemed to expand and the whole place was lit blindingly for several minuets before it toned down revealing a creepy but beautiful woodland. It was a warm pleasant night as fire flies Danced amongst the falling petals of the weeping cherry trees that swayed in the gentle breeze, as if welcoming me. Flowers were blossomed everywhere in every colour and the sky was a pretty jade colour . Then as if it had been watching me the moment I had arrived, bright eyes glowed in the night, so eerie.  hair on the back of my head raised slowly. It felt so much like a nightmarel. I could hear the trickling of a stream nearby. Suddenly  out of nowhere, there was the sound of someone shouting " Oi You.!" My heart seemed to have abruptly stopped. I hid behind a meduim sized rock, peering slightly over. " pfft.she's not going to survive here. Not in this world. The princess Is out numbered.. Oh and Don't forget, epidemius is watching, just waiting to snatch her up as he said, destroy her.. mmh i wonder, if humans are as delicious as lord molomo said they are, if i was you id let it be over, of course if you do not wish to die a pathetic death." sneered a very unpleasant looking man. He was bald, tall and thin. He had the biggest conker nose I'd seen in my life. " hahaha, this is quite entertaining" kiaros snorts. " you think you of all people can threaten me ? I'll never submit. you can tell Epidemus, I won't do it. I reckon She's far more capable than you think and if not... I'll prepare her. You'll see.  that's all the information you are getting, now " Said Kairos coldly. Oh he was looking more perfect than ever. I loved how his silvery shimmery hair shone in the sun like the shiny blade of a beautifully crafted sword and his icey blues glistened brilliantly, especially when his eyes were sharp and dangerous looking. I don't know why he was here, I didn't know that was even possible for him to be here, but then I think back to me seeing him ask that girl out to prom.. What appended to that? This had to be a dream! i wanted to stride up there and demand why he was here, but No, i knew better than that, it could be dangerous. I didn't want to go near the creepy man, every time I looked at him he gave me an uneasy feeling. I sat still, behind the rock. None of what i'd heard made sense to me. An outnumbered princess, huh? So this princess had enemies.. I bet that isn't too fun for her.  I shivered at the breeze and even though this place was immensely pretty, it was still creepy, especially with conker nose around. Petals still fell slowly all around me from the top of a beautiful cherry blossom, as the wind gently caressed the tree. They looked like little love hearts and as kiaros walked away in to the shadows he walked without a care, without even knowing i was here. I wanted to yell to him but i knew i shouldn't. I squeezed my eyes shut as I tore a petal in half. It hurt seeing him, knowing again i was out of his reach and sight. I felt pathetic as tears streamed, so I eagerly wiped them away " what are you doing here?!" i heared a familiar voice. It was the bold man and he was standing in front of me, his face full of suspion. "I..er..i don't actually know; where am i." I admitted, as he glared down at me. He grabbed hold of me and shook me frantically about, mm you're an insignificant human!! We need the princess, but i could make a feast out of you, get up and come with me munt." I didn't like his attitude but i decided to follow him in hope i could find out where i was, not because i wanted to be a feast.
