Everything around me in the room was pitch black, and although i could feel shadow creatures moving all around me, I'd never felt more alone. The creatures circeled me as the three planets in our galaxy orbited the sun, intimidating me with their sharp hisses, as if i intruded their territory.

I put my hands up infront of me trying to feel my way out, if there even was an exit of course, and immediatly prepared to touch whatever those creatures were, but my fingers slid through nothing but darkness.

One of the creatures slithered way to close for my personal liking, if I should have shadow-snakes stalking me I want at least a few feet of personal space.

Of course, they cared nothing about that, and their hissing increased as they noticed I was trying to get away.

Now I was honestly getting frightened, where was the exit? Where am I? What are these creatures? Why am I here?

The hissing got even louder as I started to question my situation, and it felt like the air around me got thicker for every step I took.

"What do you want?!" I yelled, getting fed up with their constant hissing, which also started to give me a headache.

As I spoke up, a powerful gust of wind hit me, almost making me trip backwards, but I managed to keep on my feet.

"Why won't you let me go?!" I yelled at nothing in particular, but who, or whatever was keeping me here had to have a damn good reason.

One of the shadows now materialized, and slithered around my neck, making me freeze.

"Dont fight it girl, the more you fight, the harder the snare will tighten around your neck"

The snake around my neck seemed to speak straight into my mind with a raspy dry voice. As on queue I took a step forward, and felt the living snare around my neck tightened.

"You're the most sinful of them all, you must not live longer, or you will ruin the balance"

"Help!" I finally shouted, but my voice faded into oblivion as I felt the snare tighten and my field of vision was invaded by colourful dots, dancing in the corner of my eyes.

Sadly, as the world grew even darker before my eyes, I heard nothing but the snakes triumphant hissing.

"Hey hey hey! New day, new morning, new chance to make friends!"

A shrill voice pierced my dream and brutally dragged me back out to reality.

A silhuette pushed my curtains away from my window, and the sunlight fell upon me, irritating my eyes as I desperatly fought to slip back into the comfortable darkness in my dream.

"Ugh" I groaned as a response, rolling over and pressing my pillow over my head.

You see, this was the first day of the rest of my premiere highschool year, and oh boy how exited i was.

(Note the sarcasm people, it's gonna be a lot of it)

"Aw hun don't be like that!" Velon, my personal hand maiden said, and I could imagine him pout.

"Go away, im staying home today, and the rest of the year" I groaned, hoping the hoplessly enthusiastic Storm Feen would get the message and leave, but as soon as I thought he left, a gust of wind ripped my blanket off me and and pushed me out of my bed.

"DAMN YOU AND YOUR HURRICANES" I yelled from my place on the floor, as my bloodshot eyes sent a killing glare towards the servant.

Velon knew me better than anyone, and by now he was already halfway out my door, escaping my untapped morning rage.
