Hannibal: A Heart That Bleeds Gold

A Choice Must Be Made

What was his going to do?

What the hell was Will going to do after his meeting with Alex? Will didn't know what side to pick or who to stay on good terms with. On one hand Alex was his best friend but on the other hand what if this was a bad choice? Picking Alex and not thinking on the bigger picture? What if this was all part of some plan?

That's all Will could think about all night. He couldn't get a wink of shut eye at all! Every second was on what he should pick! Who side should he be on?

It was only during the early hours of the morning did Will just give up on sleep and get up moving towards the door and leaving the room. He walked down the silent halls as the candles kept everything bright in the room. The sun wasn't up just yet so outside was a sea of stars still.

Stars, Will loved the stars so much ever since he was a child. His father took him to the hills to be able to see the stars. It was said that every God had a home in each star and the biggest star was the home to the most powerful God. If God was real....if any God was real... then maybe he should ask them?

That's when Will stopped and pushed open one of the windows. He let the morning breeze hit him softly before he looked up at the sky. He looked at every single star and he couldn't help but give a small smile. This was the one time he actually felt close to his father " anyone up there? Any God up there? Whoever you are... what path is right?" He waited and nothing happened.

What did Will expect to happen? Some God falling from the sky to answer him? That's not how things work at all.

" but can't they work like that?" A voice whispered to Will and Will spins around so fast he almost fell. When he turned to see where the voice came from he saw no one. " I'm losing it..... I'm stressed the hell out and I'm hearing things " Will rubbed his head " I need to calm down"

" no, you need to see the truth"

yet again! A voice!! It sounded so empty yet filled with an emotion he couldn't pin point! How could that be? It made no sense

" don't turn around "  the voice came from behind Will. The candles in the hall flickered slowly and some even went out

" who are you?" Will stood in his place not daring to look behind him

" I am everyone and anyone you want me to be~ " the voice turned into something soothing

" I don't want you to be anyone or everyone...I want to know who YOU are... so who are you?" Will kept his tone of voice calm yet made sure it sounded firm

" you're a tough man " slowly the candles went completely off and the only light that came was from the moon " I go by many names but the one I go by here is Alana~ "

Will felt a surge of fear slam into him when the name came out. That's when he broke the rule and he turns around laying his eyes on Alana. It was said in the kingdoms history there was always someone that came at the worse times to make things good again or make things hell. It said that it was always a woman that was named Alana! It was said this woman was both angel and both devil.... not a fallen yet not fully someone holy... this was someone that stepped in from both heaven and hell. The huge question was could she be trusted?

" you looked at me " Alana laughs softly but her face was covered by a hood. She had a necklace around her neck that had a tear drop shape charm " I told you not to look~ but people don't listen now do they? I'll let you pass this one time "

" you're the..." Will felt his throat go dry " you're the kings..... "

" guide" Alana cut in " or disciple"  She leans back as her silver cloak covered her whole body. " you seem scared why? "
