Beyond The Veil

Nightmare

I was laughing but...it wasn't my laugh? I looked down at my friends and knew what was to come next. "Dimitri, Sivelle!!! Run." I wanted to scream it but instead I smirked and called on the element of fire first. I grew it till the fire was a big burning ball in my hand and with no regret I threw it at Dimitri. He tried to run but the sorta me knew that was going to happen. The fire burned his pale skin and he fell to the ground as the fire danced over his skin. I cried and sobbed on the inside and felt everything was going wrong. I tried everything to scream but only managed a whisper, "run." It was enough for Seville and he began running and took out his wings. Quickly the sorta me called upon the element of water and drenched his wings causing him to fall. The earth opened under him and he fell. The laughter rang and I managed to see the area around me. Everything was burning and a great War was breaking out. My soul ached knowing somehow I cause this...I was a monster

My eyes snapped open and I sat up in cold sweat. Without another thought I flicked my finger and a small light was at the tip of it. My body relaxed and I realized I was tense. For some odd reason I was getting these dreams a lot ever sense I turned 16 last year. That's when my parents kept me inside and wouldn't allow me putside.

Looking over I realized the sun was just now rising and I tingled with delight. The sunrise was almost the most beautiful thing to watch. Quietly, I got up and put on my rob and let out my wings. I flew up on the roof and sat there looking at the top of the trees and the greatest sunrise yet. A quiet flutter made me look to the side seeing my bestfriend appear next to me.

I smiled and we watched the sun rise and even after we stayed there. I didn't have any other friends, just my one. Which was honestly okay by me. He was really great and the same age as me. The only difference was that he was 3 months older than me and he wouldn't let me forget it.

After an hour of silence he sighed and smiled gently, looking my way. I gave him a look which wiped his smile away. "You had another dream didn't you." He said more than asked already knowing my answer. I nodded anyways hugged my knees to me as he out his arm around me. "Yeah...only this time....I saw it instead of heard it. The war I mean, it was so...gruesome." I said and shuttered.

He squeezed me softly and I leaned my head against his shoulders. "Its just...just a dream." He said quietly to me in my ear. I smiled softly, "I know...it just feels so real." I added. He wanted to say more but my mother's voice ran out. She could scream and holler but her voice was always sweet and you couldn't help but smile at it.

"Miracle! Where are you?" My mother called out. "We're up here Mrs.Fay." Seville replied to her. "Well both of you get it here and let's eat!" She replied back. I laughed taking my wings out again and went through my window instead of the front door. Seville met me down the hall, he went through the back door.

Immediately I smelled pancakes which made me smile at Seville. We both ran down the hall laughing and halted when my mom gave us a look. Still we snickered and sat down just as my little brother ran down the hall squeling and laughing as my dad chased him. All of us laughed and sat down to eat. I practically swallowed my whole plate of pancakes drenched in strawberry.

"Done!!! Let's go to the lake Seville." I said and began to walk out the door. "Forgetting something?" My father asked. I looked down and realized I was still in my jammies. Blushing I ran to my room and chose shorts with a tank top and pulled my white hair up and out of my face.

I grabbed my satchel and ran back out waving bye to my family and eagerly rushing out. "Woah what's the rush? We're been to the lake plenty of times!" He said trying to slow me down.

I smirked and stopped looking at him and taking my wings out. "We're not going to the lake...we're going to visit the town!" I exclaimed. He bit his lip and then shool his head. "You know how my parents are and especially your own parents." He hissed hesitantly at me.

I frowned and folded my arms, "they're just being overprotective! Come on!" I pleaded. He finally nodded slowly and began to take out his own wings. As soon as they fluttered out I whipped to the sky still holding his hand. We flew for a while until finally I heard the loud clatter of voices. We landed on top of a nearby tree and I gazed in awe.

Finally, other people!! I giggled with excitement and landed in the middle of the town. Music was everywhere I waved at people all around me. I looked back and Seville chuckled. His face wen from amused to guilty and I looked over. My mother was in front of me. My eyes dropped down and I cried. This just wasn't fair! Why must I be separated from the world?! Without another word I flew back to our secluded house and laid on my bed.

A little while later my mother walked in and sadness was clear on her face. "I know about your nightmares." She said to me and I looked away. She hugged me, "it will make sense soon baby." And either that She left me. I didn't even both to look at the sun set.

Now, I wish I had listened then. I wish I was safe in that house and with my family. Now, I'm on the run and I feel even worse, I dragged my own best friend in this.
