Chapter 2:

I let out an ear piercing scream at the sight I saw...

I tried to move my body, legs? Arms? Anything? It was clear to me that my body was rooted in place, quite like a tree that was rooted to the earth. I feared that like the beautiful trees that decorated the planet in different shades of green and brown, I had no control of what was happening to myself. The large dark mass that screamed, no, demanded that you felt at least intimidated by it, moved from the almost protective shadows, revealed my deepest fear and strangely my deepest feelings, the man from my dreams. No, not as people may have thought, although it would have been nice, the perfect man for me. It was but the strange lonely man who sat upon that dark gothic throne.

The man, I'm assuming it was a man, let out a low dark sounding chuckle that sent my fear scale shooting through the roof of my bathroom! His cloak swirled menacingly around him as he took a step towards where I was stuck to the white tiled floor, his hood yet again masking his identity like in my dreams. I stared at him in wonder, fear slowly dying down at the realisation, that whatever he was going to do, probably didn't involve hurting me. If that was the reason he was here, I would bet the last twenty pounds in my purse, that the man in front of me would have already killed me. On their own accord, my eyes started wondering his body to see if there was anything to identify him by, I swear if this is a prank I'll flip! I let out a frustrated sigh when I realised his cloak covered everything.

"It's rude to stare Sapphire," his voice was husky and deep, the sudden sound made me jump, but embarrassingly, I hated to admit it I liked the way my name sounded on his lips... Sapphire he could be some creepy ass murderer! Anyone and anything could be hidden underneath that cloak! My conscious spoke quietly. But, being scared to death this early in the morning and having enough of being glued to the damn floor, I flipped.

"Didn't your mother ever teach you that it's illegal to break into someone's house, then stand in their bathroom like a stalker?!?" I found myself saying; I gulped as his blazing red orbs looked into my eyes, his deadly eyes like freshly spilt blood flashed with, surprisingly, amusement which seemed to brighten his eyes and make them appear less threatening.

As if floating above the ground, like a cloud would move through the sky, he slowly stalked his way towards me. I tried to struggle or move from the spot, but my body was hopelessly as frozen as it was in the first place.

"Ah, but Sapphire I really did need to meet you," he reached out to me, revealing a slightly tanned large hand, one that he was probably capable of killing somebody with, his knuckles were scared from what I assumed were from many fights. His hand reached up to my face as he gently caressed my cheek, I had wanted to shudder in disgust, thinking that his touch would feel wrong. However, surprisingly his hands were soft as feathers. I unwillingly found myself leaning into the caress, a blush tainting my pale skin.

Shakily I asked, "who are you and w..what do y...you want?" I swear I felt him smile beneath his cloak as I stared into the empty space where his face should have been. Something flashed in those eyes that had my skin crawling. His hand went to my throat tightening threateningly.

"Humans! Always the same questions! Who are you... why are you here...what do you want?! Why is my life sooo f*ck!ng boring?!? It's the same sh!t over and over again, from you though Sapphire I expected something a little different, but you humans have a way of asking pathetic questions..." I began shaking in fear as my oxygen levels seemed to disappear completely as black dots covered my eyes. His red ones burned into mine. Slowly his grip released from around my throat, and with that my body seemed to return to normal, well apart from the fact that I couldn't move.

"Has anyone ever told you... to t- take a-a chill p-pill?" I asked quietly my voice a bit ruff from the previous moment. I allowed myself to look curiously into his eyes. I still felt fear, but I think being deprived from oxygen messed with my thoughts to mouth process.

"The last person who told me, and I quote, "to take a chill pill," was unfortunately for them, but very entertaining for me, burned alive and thrown into a never ending darkness." He stated, stressing the word very and looking extremely proud of himself. "But you, I'm beginning to like you so I'll only warn you..." he paused for effect, a sinking feeling started in my gut, "if you ever dare to disrespect me again, I'll throw you into hells pit and laugh at your terrified screams until they are no more!" His voice boomed with thunder and held a hidden promise to me, that had me shivering with fear.

In that moment though, seriously thinking this was an actor, one that would win an award hands down. I smiled to myself feeling an unknown burst of courage float up and around me, "tiny bit dramatic ain't we? Empty threats get you nowhere in life." I smirked at the man in the hood.

"Oh sapphire, you'll wish my threats were empty once I'm finished with you. You truly have no idea who I am? Do you?" He spoke calmly, the atmosphere in the room turned suffocating, causing my heart to race. Sweat formed on my forehead and I itched to wipe it away. Sapphire, you stupid girl! My conscious screamed. This isn't an actor, why would you try and p!ss off something, that may or may not be human...

But being the idiot I am, I blurted out the first thing that popped in to my none existent brain. "A selfish pig?" I asked almost innocently. A low dangerous chuckle sounded from beneath that dark cloak. In the blink of an eye, I was pinned up against my bathroom wall, painfully hitting my head in the process, his head went to my ear, I could feel his warm breath tickling my ear as he breathed.

"Try the devil, sweetie." He kissed my neck gently, as I breathed in a woodsy smell, "your worst nightmare." With that, he disappeared... it was as if he was never even here to begin with.

I sunk to the floor letting the information sink in... damn, that meant the devil could win an award for his acting skills.
