Okay we're back to third person mode.

A while after Araya fell asleep, she was awoken from another nightmare. She was now alone in the bedroom; Talon must have moved me in here, she thought. She layed back down, closing her eyes again. But before she did, she saw a familiar inky blackness move out of the corner of her eye. She groaned. "No.." She moaned, closing her eyes tightly, knowing that wouldn't ward it away.

"Araya..sweetheart..look at me.." the shadow beckoned. Araya shook her head. "Please, no.." She begged. After a moment, she opened her eyes to the shadow above her head. She screamed.

Talon was in the living room, playing with Mittens. He heard the scream, his head shooting up. "Baby?!" He yelled, running to the bedroom. He opened the door quickly, looking at Araya, who was curled into a ball, trembling. He ran to her side. "Araya? Baby, what's wrong?" He asked. She whimpered softly, shaking her head.

The shadow loomed over her, dispite Talon being there. And he didn't see anything. The shadow whispered things, false things to her, trying to break her. But she wouldn't be broken again.

I know, very short cliffhanger chapter, but I have the state testing. I may not upload much, or at all. This is just a small teaser chapter. I promise I'll make it up to you guys, with more 1000+ word chapters. Anyway, see ya later!
