Azara's POV
I shake in my bed, waking up as the sun shines bright through my window. I open my eyes to my old room. The giant thin curtains wrap my bed as I crawl out and face the sunny window. I step to the window and look towards the horizon. To my horror it's not the beautiful glistening forrest, it's the gory sight of The War of Killahead. The screams, the pain, clashing of swords. I blink and suddenly I'm there.
My breath hitches in my throat, I look around as the scene spins in circles around me. Dizzy, my head still makes out danger coming my way and stepping out of the crossfire. I clutch my chest as a giant shadow appears before me. Gunmar. His claws come at my face and I hit the floor. Screams of pain break from my lungs as a look for help, any one. I crawl to a tree and lean against it, I close my eyes and see the pain behind my dark vision.
I'm sitting across from the king as he talks but my ears are deaf to his words. I listen to my emotions and feel to my thoughts. I storm out of the room and the hallways seem to get longer as I throw of my heels that only slow me down to my goal. My heart pounds and aches, it's there I know it but, the hole I feel in my chest makes my doubts. Tears escape my eyes as I slam open doors to a room only filled with whispers and memories.
The empty void spreads from my chest to my surroundings. A familiar darkness only kin to death herself. She remembers my wishes and for a time she denied them. But as a short time feels eternal I begged it to end. But know never to expect what you ask of death for she might seem like mercy but she is full of tricks.
I see Merlin's shadow as his staff glows and points at me.

"Aza?! Wake up, I have a surprise for you!" My brother yells with excitement. How can I deny waking up for him when he asks so nicely?
"What is wrong with you? It's five in the morning! You psycho!" I turn away from him covering myself with the covers. I'm in no mood to wake up right now, even for a surprise from Jim.
"Wake up or I'll tell mom to sign some de-adoption papers." He says in a confident voice.
"There's no such thing, dummy," I reply not caring.
"Ok fine." He stops and thinks for a second "Wake up or I tell Mom of your breakdown yesterday" I can practically hear the smug smile on his face.
"Fine" I sit up quickly in my bed. I know Jim won't tell Mom of last night but it's still pretty good blackmail.
"Ok! Now get dressed I'll wait by your car!" He runs out of my room.
"Can you at least tell me where we're going?!" I scream as he goes down the stairs.
"NO!"

I go down the stairs and see Jim outside with my car. I roll my eyes and grab my keys from the counter.
"Where ever we're going, you're paying." I say getting into the driver's seat.
Jims spends the nexts few minutes giving me directions but doesn't even tell me where we're going. I sigh as I try to grill my little brother for an answer, 'he's a stubborn little sh-'.
"And we're here!" he yells "park over there!" he points. I park the car and walk over to the cafe. We get to the door and Jim pushes the door open for me, I raise an eyebrow at him. He's always nice and a gentleman but something tells me this morning coffee run is full of pity.
