The nightmares has come back.... the times of her family giving her hugs or the first time she had laid her eyes of her baby sister. Those were the nightmares the had haunted her
Why? She had once asked herself, why does she find fear in the one thing that brought her happiness
And still.. yet till this day. She hadn't known and she hated the fact that her mother's golden brown hair had came into her dreams while her bright brown eyes stared into her
Maybe it was the fact that there were blood streaks in her hair, or the sadness that filled her eyes
Ophelia hated it.. so god damn much... Hell! She despised the way her mind had reformed her angelic face
Ophelia shot up from her sleep, sweat dripping from her forehead as she hypo ventilated
She turned to her side as she noticed a certain peaceful sleeper leaned against a tree trunk
She got up and slowly started making her way towards him
She gently placed her leg over both of his and sat down gently
Should she? No she couldn't? He would be furious
Then again... She wouldn't know without trying
She gently gripped the edge of the veil and slowly pulled it down
His Raven black hair falling out and over his eyes
The boys hands had shot up and gripped Ophelia's small wrist
"And what might I ask are you doing?" He asked not bothering to pull his hood back up
Ophelia's cheeks flushed as she noticed how close their faces were, she could almost feel his breath on her cheek
"Why don't you take that hood of yours off?"She asked with her eye brows furrowed
"Curiosity killed the cat"he said with amusement in his hazel eyes
"Yet, satisfaction brought it back"she said smiling sheepishly
He chuckled and released her wrist
"Mind getting off me?"he asked crossing his arms over his chest
Right.... she had totally forgotten about their position and sprang to her feet followed by the boy who got gently up
He picked his sack up from the floor and glanced Ophelia's way
"How can I get home?"she asked him with worry
She had a job to get back home to and if she had missed it she knew the consequences of them
"Where are you from exactly? Yavonna? Aria? Bablon?" He asked
"I'm not from any of those places? I'm from Britain"she said looking at him only to find him staring right back
"Well, then if we have to find out where's Britain then we've got to go to the Room Of Knowledge"He said turning around running a hand through his hair
Ophelia felt weak to her knees
Imagining how it felt if it were her that was running her hand through his locks
"So, where can we find the Room Of Porridge?"She asked doubtful that the word was Porridge
"Knowledge, Room of Knowledge"he corrected her "We can find it in the City of Aragon, I doubt we'll get in though, the guards are on high alert ever since the attack on their leader"
"What happened?" Ophelia asked seeing the worry in his eyes
"Can't tell, but all I know is that the attack had a massive impact on the village, they've even made a human wall around the entire village... no one goes in and no one goes out"He said facing her again
"How do we get there?"She asked him
"Follow the trees, and soon we'll find it"The boy said
"But there are tree's everywhere"She said hopelessly
How do you follow tree's when they are everywhere
If the tree's had been in a line then maybe it would be easier to follow
"We'll, unlike you princess, I know what tree's to follow"He said with pride dripping from those words
"When are we leaving?"she asked hastily to get back home
"As soon possible-"
A load roar had echoed through the forest setting the boy on full alarm
He knew what that was but what he hadn't known was why it was out
Creatures like these are never out in the sun
His hands slowly turning back into those blue fiery swords
His hair turned dark blue, his ear pointy like an elves, and canines ready to charge
He knew he couldn't fight that thing off alone
He had two options
{1}Flight, runaway and hide so that he can protect the girl and get her back to whatever place she came from
{2}Fight, try to fight off the beast and die, only to leave the girl alone to fend for herself and soon die afterwards without getting to say bye to her family
Like him
He sighed and grabbed the girl by her wrist and started running
The loud thumps of the beast feet slammed the ground made them hop every time
He reached the lake wanting to hope in but was stopped by the tight grip the girl had on him
"No"She whispered shaking her head as tears threatened to fall
The memories had started to all flood back
"We have to" the boy rushed her" or we'll die"
She didn't want to die
She hated the word with a passion so she did one thing to prevent becoming it
She jumped
