        The room was empty and deathly quiet as i awaited sleep.Alone...that's how the ice prince must prefer his nights,right? In all honesty I do enjoy being by myself. Then i do not have to explain myself to anyone in this God forsaken country.I stood up and began to pace the length of my room. It is rather lavish; i have everything the people of my country could only dream of. Expensive curtains made of silk , a huge castle made of flawless stones, rare jewels that cover most everything..and for what? Absolutely nothing. Beauty is nothing if a persons soul is dead.

      I look around at my bedroom and sigh.I splash my face with ice cold water and look into my mirror.All I see is a spoiled prince looking back at me.I scream and punch the mirror with all my strength.The mirror shatters into a thousand peices and I look at my hand.Of course it is bleeding profusely, just my luck.I rip my shirt and wrap it around my knuckles.i watch the blood as it stains the snow white shirt. Eventually i walk back to my bed and fall asleep.

       In his sleep he thrashed around. His skin was pouring a cold sweat. Eventually his own screaming woke him up. He sat up  quickly and lit a candle on his bedside table and looked around. He stared at the shadows cast by the flame.He shivered and got out of bed to prepare for the day.

        Hours later I am sitting in the dining room entertaining a hundred guests. "Prince Ashland, what do you intend to do about the rumors of rebellion that have been travling around the country?" asked my adviser named Erik. "I intend to do nothing. They are simply rumors. Noone in the kingdom would dream of rebelling against my shadow army. It would imply certain death."
