My Life As Amythyst Night+More

Confrontation(18)

I'm sitting outside the med wing, enjoying some lemonade and sunshine. I avert my gaze away from the fountain below when Shade walks in, bowing.

"Hey Shade. What's up?" I ask tired from the lack of sleep.

"I was thinking, maybe increase your guard count?" He offers, pulling out a chair to sit in.

"I think its fine. My guard count I meant. I just think that I should've been more careful."

Shade looks at me funny but doesn't say anything.

"Want some lemonade?" I ask, looking at the pitcher of ice and lemonade.

"Yeah sure. Here I'll get it." Shade gets up and pours himself a cup.

We sit there viewing the land and thinking.

"Well I have patrol to get to. See u later m'lady." Shade bows and leaves.

I sigh and decide to do some paperwork.

-----------------------------------Many Papers Later--------------------------------------

I sigh as I finish stamping papers. I turn my music down and get up stretching. I walk down to the kitchen for a snack, since its around noon.

I grab an apple and walk back up to my room. I open a book and read while munching on an apple.(I did this irlx3)

Awhile later****

I must've fallen asleep, because I wake up with my head on my desk.

I yawn and get up. Its 3 pm. Wow I slept a lot....

I get up and stretch, cracking my back. I notice the window is open, letting in a small but pleasant breeze.

I walk over and close it, latching the lock and closing the blinds. I hear something drop and I whisk around, a canister rolling down the room. I look at it confused. I reach down and pick it up gently.

I look around and see no one. Huh?  I put it on the table and walk to the bathroom.

I splash my face with some water and then brush my teeth. I shut the lights off then walk out into the hall. I walk down the hall to a wall that has old wallpaper. I trace a symbol on it and the wall reveals to me a door, an old but strong oak wood door.

I walk in and place my hand on the scanner and it pricks my finger. I wince as it reads my DNA and then it opens several doors down the stone corridor. I walk down the secret passage, the torches lighting as I draw near. I get to a room, a secret symbol on the door. I place my amulet against it and it swings open.

Inside it's warm, unlike the rest of the corridor. I look around suspiciously. A small blue water fountain lays in the corner of the room, a weapons rack along one wall, and sparring dummies around the room. I scan the room, noting the bit of dirt on the ground, along with the sword laying on the ground and the dark magic presence in the room.

I unsheathe my blade and growl lowly,

"Reveal yourself!" I see a shadow flicker near the dummies and I walk closer, the hair on my neck pricks up.

I kick the dummies down to reveal no one. I hear the slick motion of a blade unsheathed and I whip around. I see a tall dark figure right in front of me, it slashes at me. I duck and stab it before rolling away. It makes a hissing sound. I growl and get up swiftly, my blade flaming with dark magic.

I didn't notice the other figure behind me until a hand covered my mouth. I kicked out at the person behind me, successful in making them curse. They wouldn't let me go. I bite down on the persons hand, blood flowing. They let go quickly and I wind blast them back away from me. The two figures are facing me, claws out and eyes watching me.

I reach for the door but before I can get a hold, one of the figures dashes forward at lightning speed grabs my wrist holds it to my back. I kick them and they loosen their grip, I kick one and they fall in pain. The other pushes a cloth against my mouth and nose. I see green dust particles fly in my eyes before I fall down, my body slowly numbing. Shoot.....
