The Land Of The Dead

Chapter Thirteen: Dream Come True

A cheery mood was a theme of Glory's spirit, positivity compelled her and relief released her from fear. She was dancing her way to her cabin.

Just as Glory was about to enter her cabin, Sono appeared in Glory's bedroom -- but through invisibility. Glory opened the door, and all that joy went away in a second. Her face was in huge disbelief. She got inside, and screamed at the horror of how her beloved secret cabin was. Sono got startled, meanwhile, in the bedroom. "I wonder how my bedroom looks like!" She walked faster to see the condition of her bedroom.

Sono gasped and froze for a moment, there was no way Glory was going to find the protection bracelet. She quickly went to pick it up, Glory paused after she heard footsteps coming from her bedroom. "Tyandra?" She called.

Sono wore the bracelet and wore it at the same time Glory opened the door. She quickly disappeared, and Glory got inside and saw no one. Her bedroom wasn't that bad, only some clothes had been scattered. She saw that the bracelet was gone, she went out of breath, "no... no. I'm finished, it can't be."

Meanwhile, Sono was in a room -- and in that room was her son and Tyandra. Tyandra looked very comfortable, she wasn't kidnapped at all. "Tyandra, I found it," she said holding out her wrist for Tyandra to see.

Glory's panicking caused her a stir and decided to summon Shinobia for answers. "Bia, somebody took the protection bracelet. Did you see who it was?"

"You failed the task."

"Shinobia, that is not important, right now!" Glory pushed Shinobia with her mind to collide with the wall, "oops," after she realised what she had done. Shinobia grunted and glid to Glory through the air. Glory kept taking steps back everytime Shinobia got closer. Until she was against at the wall.

Shinobia strangled her and her grip kept tightening by the second. It made it very difficult for Glory to breathe. Then she remembered about the book. Suddenly, her eyes flashed with hope. She quickly drew the star sign on Shinobia's forehead. As soon as Shinobia felt the link between her and Glory break, she let her go and shrieked loudly like she was in a lot of amount of pain.

Glory didn't hesitate, she took a chance to run away when she saw it. She was panting, but she didn't stop running. She was afraid to go back to the palace, fearing that the king might've already had the protection bracelet back. She was running towards the river. Shinobia's shrieking sound was very near, Glory turned her head while still running -- and she saw Shinobia behind her, chasing her mid-air. Glory slipped and fell, she yelped and quickly got herself up with a staggering movement.

The laminar was still, on a southern course where Glory was racing towards to. Her celestial eyes were dimming as if her life was reflecting death, her heart was beating a rather different substance of fear which was making her body frantic.

She made her stop along the floodplain of a river and caught a breather. Her white dress was still immaculate as she was despite falling along the way, even in fear-- she was still beautiful.

She thought that she had lost Shinobia who was chasing her, until the wind whistled harshly and howled loudly causing the clouds to bond in gloom. She let out a scream while turning around with an instinct. She felt chills behind her back as she saw Shinobia floating slowly making her way to her. Her brain sunk to her stomach, and her hearts productivity lost its course.

It was as if Glory was in a trance when Shinobia stopped mid-air, not further than her. A tear glid down her cheek, she shut her eyes and gave up. Shinobia opened her palm and quickly -- fire was pyrokinetically on it.

Glory wasn't begging for her life, she knew that it was over for her. Suddenly, in her mind she regretted everything that she did.

Unexpectedly, Shinobia turned off the fire in her palm, "you are not mine to take. You will haunt this place and rule with me after the one you love kills you." She quickly disappeared.

Glory was in great disbelief that Shinobia had just spared her life. She was still breathing heavily, so she decided to sit down on the rich green beautiful grass and catch some air.
