"Ah! Umm....I meant...."

Monster shushed me showing his palm.

"Get.inside!"  He ordered with a very null expression.

"Eh......Well, Mr Dragon..I mean Mr.Drake I can exp..."

He growled angrily and threw a vase that was on his right side table. 

I flinched and hurriedly stepped back to avoid getting hurt by that vase. It shattered into tiny little pieces right in front of my feet. Eyes wide..mouth agape I was looking back and forth between the broken pieces and him. My heart is hammering so loud I guess the whole staff could hear it too.

Its better to remain silent for now.

"GO!....NOW!!"  He yelled.

I rushed back in and headed straight to the stairs that lead me to my room.

He should be happy to see me back again, he didn't have to search for me. I think it was a horrible idea to come back. I ran away from the animals but this monster will surely chew me up alive. I would taste really good though...even without hotsauce. Salt and pepper is a must. I am too sweet for him.

Arghhhh! What is wrong with me? What am I even thinking? Now is not the time to think about all such depressing things.

I gasped at the sight in front of me. What's going on here?? Why is my room's furniture being brought down? I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see....

"Miss Mary! What exactly is happening here?" I asked her perplexed. She grabbed my hand and walked me to my room.

I was astonished to see everything half-burnt.
All the curtains, the bed covers....
Wait!! This reminded me of the fire alarm that rang when I was escaping. But what caused the fire here? I asked Miss Mary.

"I don't know! When I came here the fire alarm was ringing. And things were still on fire.....The guards first looked for you all over the room while few guards were trying to extinguish the fire. I thought it was part of your plan..." She explained.

But it wasn't part of my plan. I think.....oh wait! I remember I lit a candle and kept it at the window-side. Fuck! After its use I completely forgot to blow it off. What the hell have I done?
If AngryMonster knows that it all happened because of me he'll surely chop me into tiny little pieces and eat me up as his breakfast.

Even thinking of him is making him appear in front of me. This is just hallucination Butterfly, calm down!

"Everyone! Out!!" Monster hollered.  I realized its not any sort of hallucination.

'Think of the devil and the devil appears!' Gosh..I should leave too before he actually kills me. Am too young to die. I was about to leave.

"Not.you, Crystal!!" He roared

I shuddered and froze at his voice. This is the first time he did  not address me as Miss and took my actual name. He ate the 'Miss' from my name now he will eat me too, soon! VERY SOON!!

Everyone in the room left me. I looked at Miss Mary pleadingly she gave my hand a gentle squeeze and left.

God!! I should have carried the mop here. There's nothing that can save me from him today.

"So, you did not only try to set the house on fire but you also tried to escape. Tell me one thing, what made you come back here?" He said in a calm voice. But he and I both knew this was anything but a calm situation. I know, one wrong answer..and am done! For good!
