Katana woke up and yawned as she stretched her arms into the air. Her vision still blurry from the sleep she had, she slowly walks over to the curtains to open them. As she opened the curtains, the morning sun beamed it's light into the room. Katana regained full vision as the light hit her eyes. She smiled as she went to take a shower, get dressed and eat. After she ate, she made breakfast for the other residents of the castle. Katana called them to breakfast "Breakfast is ready!!!" Everyone came to receive their morning meal. Everyone except Kazma. Katana called for Kazma "Kazma!" No answer. "Kazma?!" Still no answer. She decided that she would go see if he was alright. When she came into his new room, she was a little upset to see him sleeping. She pulled out a mysterious can. When she pushed the top of the can down an ear piercing noise spread in the whole castle. Kazma immediately woke up to the noise. "Aghhh!!! My frickin' ears!!" he exclaimed. "Were you awake all night!?" Katana asked in an aggressive manner. Kazma, for the first time in his life was started to get scared. He said in a small voice "Yes.....". Katana simply sighed. She then said to him "We're gonna have to fix that then." She took him to a room that was entirely dark green and picked up a pill bottle. "Take these. These are gonna fix your sleep schedule." Kazma took the pills because of the fact that he didn't want to upset Katana anymore. Especially since she did let him move into her castle. "Now come get breakfast and then meet up with me. Let's try to have some fun today!" Katana shouted in excitement. Kazma, of course, didn't take the "fun" part as an innuendo. He, unlike most men, Kazma actually used his brain and didn't take words for.... ehhh let's just say: "signals". On that day, Kazma met the rest of the residents which were a few maids and two of Katana's cousins. One was a girl named Emily and another one was named Griffith. Emily was 10 years old. Griffith was 18. Later, they all went searching the town for secrets. Of course, nothing unusual was found. When night came, Katana told Kazma to go to bed. Kazma walked to his room. But Katana saw that he was walking in a way that only someone who was dreading that they would have to face their fears would do. That night, Katana would use magic to see if his dreams had anything to do with him staying awake all night. Now to explain the origin of magic. Tens of thousands of years ago, people were trying to see if they could make their dreams of using magic into a reality. 500 people that tried were killed either in the process of as the ending result. Eventually, they managed to control magic. And so, as the years went by, those who mastered magic would teach their friends, family and even children the way of magic. There were no different kinds of magic. Whether it be used for good or evil, it was magic. Everyone used it. *Authors note: I wanted to explain how being able to use magic in this story is possible. I keep hearing Nostalgia Critic say to movies "EXPLAIN!!!"* Katana placed of hand on Kazma's forehead and the other on her face. What she saw..... She would never forget. She found Kazma walking in complete darkness. Nothing at all besides him. He of course could not see her due to the fact that she WASN'T IN the dream, but rather she was watching him. Small whispers were suddenly heard by both Kazma and Katana. Kazma immediately turned around with his scythe in his hands. Demonic creatures then appeared. These things were so horrific that even I can't describe them. Kazma lunged at one of them only to have everything go completely black. Even Katana couldn't see anything. When light came back, Katana saw a large, long hallway. Kazma was walking in that very hallway. He was completely naked. No rope, no shoes, not even his scythe. He was stark naked, which only increased his fear. You may not understand but clothing is one of your layers of protection that you still have. If you lose that layer then you mr fear will intensify. The whispers turned into shouting. Then, into screaming. Screaming that sounded like the screams of small, dying children being eating alive and staying alive until they were completely eating. Kazma was breaking down at this point. He turns around. And sees a black creature standing far away from him. The only part of it that was wasn't black are the eyes. It's eyes red but the pupils were black. It stood idle for what seemed like an eternity. Then it screamed and charged at Kazma. To make sure that it got Kazma it jumped at the right time. Before he could feel the impact of the black monster, Kazma woke up. Katana immediately hid under the bed. Kazma eventually went back to sleep, giving Katana the opportunity to sneak out of the room. She got our successfully without waking Kazma up. She didn't sleep well that night either.
