I open my eyes slowly.
I can see a blur image of I don't know what.
I am lying down on the floor which is made up of hard, brown, dusty rocks.
I try to get up and sit.
In front of me I can see black iron, cylindrical bars. I turn around . There are walls in my right, left and back and also on the top.
I am in a prison! What in this world is happening? Am I in the prison just because I don't belong to this kingdom? This is totally crazy!
I hold those iron bars and start to shout, "How dare you cage me in here? Are you all idiots or what! Can anyone hear me? Let me go!"
All the guards start to stare at me as if I am a fool!

But honestly, how hard I observe them, all of them, not even excluding a single member, have green eyes. Sometimes this green eye thing starts to give me a sort of tension.
Why do they all have green eyes?

Suddenly, I hear some heavy footsteps.
The voice of footsteps is increasing my pulse rate.
The image of the person walking slowly turns out to be visible.
It is a young man surrounded by guards on his left and right.
He has big green eyes, surrounded by black powder, I guess, which makes his appearance creepy. His face has cuts on cheeks.
He is completely dressed in black.
I have never seen a member of royal family to be completely dressed in black until unless they are not the cruel people or villains.
He has brown hairs till his ears.
On his side, there is sword incased in a black colored case.
As he steps towards this cage in which I'm locked up, the servants standing near the prison starts to unlock the door of the prison.
His hand moves towards his sword.
God! Help me.
The servants open up the door. I wish I can run out but I can't even if the door is open. I feel pity on myself!
Oh my god, he is totally near this jail, holding his sword tight which is still incased.
He is totally planning to behead me.

As soon as his foot step into the jail, he takes his sword out and put it right under my face!
My heart beats faster, the voice of my heart is loud enough to be heard.
The sword is sharp and he presses it harder on my neck.
My skin in contact with the sword starts to tear apart and the sword finds its place in between the torn part of my skin.
"Where are you from?" he asks me while chopping his teeth.
I gulp in my saliva and answer him, " If you don't know who I am, then why the hell did you brought me here?"
"Answer me, don't question me" he says.
"First you tell me, why am I here?" I question again.
"You should know, you entered this kingdom on your choice" he replies.
"By accident, I landed in here"
" Neither accidents nor any sort of storm can make any ordinary person enter in here." he replies and presses his sword a bit more harder. That seriously hurts a lot! My blood escapes from the torn skin and rushes down my neck.
"Can you remove that sword from my neck?" I exclaim in a loud voice.
"Don't worry, you are not going to die so easily" he replies while keeping the sword in.
"Not belonging to this place cannot be the reason for caging me in here because that will prove that you are a fool and I am of course not a criminal, then why have you people caged me in here?" I ask.
"Well of course you are not a criminal and not belonging to this kingdom can be the reason for the situation you are finding yourself in and can also be the reason for your death.
Don't try to act smart because you are not smart, one more question and my sword will pass right through your heart" he replies.
He turns to go back, taking the advantage that no one is looking at me, I slowly put my hand on his sword and drag it out.
He turns back to me again.
"I'll stab it in you" I say.
He gives an evil smile and says, "Then stab it."

What in this world is happening? God help me!
Should I stab it? I should! I take a deep breath, move my hand a bit back and moves the sword right into him.

Nothing happens to him! oh my god! My eyes widen up as I see him alive. Where am I? In the world of ghosts?
He starts to laugh out loudly, then becomes serious and angry. He stares at me with his emotionless eyes and says, " Its not about what you see but about what you don't. You can see me but you can never know where I am."
What? Is this black magic or something?
"What's your name?" he asks me. Is he planning to make my death certificate!
"Isabelle." I reply.
" Isabelle!" he exclaims, I can see his eyes turning golden brown. What is happening? I have seen these eyes before. I just can't remember.
"Isabelle. " he sighs with his golden brown eyes. He closes his eyes and then opens them up like a blink and its green again! What is happening?
He stares at me with those emotionless eyes and says, "Isabelle! Glad you told."
He starts to leave.
"Don't give her a drop of water, let her die of thirst" he commands.
He turns back to me and says, "I told you, you are not going go die so easily!"
My god, help me! Where am I stuck? I want to go back to home.

The thing I can't get off my mind is his eyes changing its color, those brown eyes had depth but these green eyes are totally emotionless.
The green eye thing, includes sorcery, I think, maybe.
