Shane (King) x Alix (Stead) - King of this World

Alix's PoV -

I lounged in my room reading a book, it was a fantasy book about another universe where everything was scary and dark but I liked it. The plot followed the king of this dark world, everyone was afraid of him and he was lonely. A few minutes later I stood and put the book down, I probably should get started on my homework, but just as I sat the book down a creepy black mist spread around my room, I couldn't see.

A blue light flashed and moments later I found myself laying in the grass and staring up at the sky. The sky was grey and gloomy, black flakes fell from the dark clouds. I thought it was ash but when I caught one it was cold and I realized it was only snow, creepy black snow. This place was so weird, everything was dark and gloomy.

     I stretched and put my arms behind my head but my arm grazed a hard material, like bone but attached to my head. I grabbed it and traced it with my hands, horns, I had grown horns! I ran to the nearest puddle and looked at my reflection, sure enough I had ram horns. I felt dizzy with fear but I forced myself to take a deep breath and calm down. I looked around, in the distance I could see the outline of a city and in the middle of it all was a towering castle, dark and medieval.

     I made my way towards the city by way of a stone footpath. When I was halfway there a storm began to pour and lightning struck the tower of the castle. Dark clouds swirled in the sky around the castle and thunder rumbled and echoed all around. I hurried down the path, I wanted to find some shelter soon. Soon I came to the gates of the town, some guards stood on either side armed with spears. As I walked by they thrust their spears in front of me blocking my path. "Your not from around here, are you?" both guards wore plane white masks but the one in the bird mask asked me this.

    "No, I'm not, who are you?" I asked, trying to be polite.

     "I'm Talon, one of King's royal guards, and you are not allowed to pass," Talon stated and I could practically here the smirk in her voice, "Flip would you do the honors?"

     The other guard in a Frog mask walked over to me, he was hiding something behind his back, "Hold still, this won't hurt a bit," the frog boy lunged at me with a knife but I slipped under it just in time.

     Shoving my head under his neck I landed a powerful blow thanks to my ram horns. I dodged Talon's spear and ran for my life. My boots echoed down the alleyways as I ran, giving my location away. Talon and Flip followed not far behind me. I made a sharp turn and came face to face with a white cat mask. "Hello, were you going somewhere?" a girl's voice questioned from behind the mask.

     "Shadow, did you not notice, this boy has no mask?" the other shorter cat grabbed me, "Help me take him to the guards."

     "Worthy, is there really need for that, just look at him, I though you liked cute boys," Shadow purred but grabbed my other arm.

     "Very funny," Worthy growled, his tail flicking annoyedly, "You don't want King's wrath if we don't take him straight to the guards do you?"

     Shadow just growled and her and Worthy tugged me back down the alley. "Do I not get a say so in this?" I questioned.

     "As a matter of fact... no," Worthy answered.

     Flip and Talon nearly ran into the three of us as we rounded a corner. "Shadow, Worthy, you caught him!" Flip panted after the long chase.

     "Ran right into us," Shadow commented a little too pridefully.

     I struggled a bit in Worthy and Shadow's grip. "Awwww, poor ram boy got captured," Talon taunted, "Don't worry, I'll put you out of your misery," she thrust a knife at me successfully landing it through my chest.
