In the Red

I woke up on a hard surface, I couldn't tell what the surface was, or where I was for that matter. I looked around. Red and pale green walls surrounded me, two oak barriers end a few feet up. A gold, or in the light it looked so, sheet hung off one barrier, the one closest to me. I was on a floor the oak barriers are beds, I fell off the one nearest one.

A mop of dark hair popped out over the other oak barrier.

"Ris?" A female voice voiced their concerns. It sounded like Meya. "How'd this *yawn*'appen" She yawned daintily.

"I'uh-oh," I mumbled as I got up, "where are the boys?"

"Oh, they got their own rooms." Meya had got up and sat on her knees

"Where are we?"

"The guard, happens to be Seth's mo-"

"-doesn't answer my question."

"Seth's mom gave us these rooms in the castle," She put her hands on her hips, "there, did that answer your question."

"Yes, sorry for interrupting you." I smiled.

"Meh, it's fine." She respond lightly.

"Let's go explore."like the little kids we are, I love doing this with her. It's only the best thing ever. Meya perked up immediately.

"Yes. Now. Immediately. Right now. NOW!!!" She totally spazzed out, she started jumping on the bed.

"M-kay, mind if I point out the elephant in the room."

"No." She turned up her nose and hmpf-ed

"Please." I raised an eyebrow.

"No can do." She turned her face away.

"Fine, let's go." I turned to where the door was, nothing, huh? I turned again. "It's that way." Meya giggled.

I turned around, there was the door. I opened the door, poked my head out and scanned the large hallway. Huge, empty expances with the sun shining harshly. I sommersaulted out of the doorway into the sunny expance. I landed in a crouch position

"Get out here, Meya." I turned on my knees to face the door. She stood at the door pulling her hair up, a huge mischeivious grin on her face.

"Let's do it!"

Mischeif time! I found a ladder of ledges and climbed my way up to the stone rafters that got thicker as you go up. I hoped from one rafter to another, after I got into the groove I was able to go faster without as much worry.

"Iris, incoming guards, hide!" Meya appeared at my side. I slid my way up to a thick rafter I could be fully hidden on. I snuck a peek down at them, the way down looked long. There were eight in formation. I waited till they passed and jumped to another rafter. My bare foot slipped. I couldn't reach the next rafters. I plummeted into a few broken bones. If i go into element mode it won't hurt as much. Then I remembered last year.

~Flash back~

Ben and I were in combat training. I ran up the wall to the monkey bars. Ben shot a fire ball at me, I countered it with a rock column. Ben appeared from behind me rocks in hand. He thrusted them towards me. I fell backwards and turned on element mode. As i descended I spun in different directions as to avoid getting hit by something. I hit the ground on my arm, hard. I shreiked and was forced out of element mode. I later found out I had a broken rib and elbow. It was brutal.

~back to present day~

I knew what to do. I put my arms out and spun clockwise. Air flew out from my wrists and fingertips. I slowed considerably. I released my grip on the spiral and fell four feet to the ground. I looked around. A flower display was strewn around and the vase shattered.

"Oops." I went to go gather up the broken pieces. I moved the glass with my powers and moved them to a corner.

"You ok down there?" Meya asked. She then

"Ya, I'm fine. I'll come back up."

"Don't bother." I turned around to see Meya falling gracefully down with a large umbrella as a parachute. "Let's go find the boys."

I looked up to the rafters. "I'd prefer to go that way through the rafters." I pointed to the direction we were going. "we'll do our mischief with them."

"I agree. I think their room is thata way. Down the hall at the junction where the conference wing is." The whole palace was a long hall with outbursts called wings. There were several wings, such as the hospital wing, the ballroom wing, the royal chamber wing and so on and so forth, and everywhere in between there were guest rooms. Our room was by the kitchen wing.

I found another ledge and climbed up to the highest rafters. The ceiling was seven feet up. Limited access, I hopped down a level and started sprinting and hurdling over the spaces.

I soon saw a sign saying "conference halls" in fancy red lettering. I hopped down spinning with air cushioning my fall. I landed swiftly on my feet.

"We have arrived." I went to the nearest door and peeked in through the door and saw Tsubasa in his bed. His hair tangled and his feet poking out from the sheet. Hehehe. I opened the door further and tip toed to him. I tickled his feet. He thrashed and kicked in the air. He stopped short of my face and sat up.

"You little poop." Tsubasa said eyeing me.

"Ha, sorry I couldn't resist." I smirked largely.

"What's all this commotion about?" Inga had woken up.

"My demon of a girl friend and your girlfriend too!" Tsubasa fell back down.

"Yes, we are little demons." Meya giggled and crawled seductivly over top Inga. He blushed profusely. "You better keep a few eyes on us."

I fell over laughing and Tsubasa saw that as an opportunity to pounce. "You interupted my beauty sleep, love, you shall pay." And right then and there he was out like a light. Fast asleep. I looked over to Meya. She just shrugged and hugged Inga, whispering something into his ear. He nodded and went to a shelf and picked up a book. I fell asleep after a chapter of eavesdropping in on Inga reading a book to Meya.

Okay so i have a proposition.  I have an idea for a new book, but i want to keep this one going a bit longer. So I have all the details on my other book randomness. it's a soulmate story.
