Euphoria- Feeling of happiness, confidence, or well-being.


Angelle sits on the beach of the Tropical Island that she calls home, Euphoria Island. Euphoria is an island that is roaming with Mysticals of all kinds, also inhabits as well. Angelle is the only Imari (human) on the island. Though the princess of a vampire royal family, Angelle never fully could grasp the concept of how she came out Imari with no powers or trace of a vampire in her except her blood. But, her brother Donatello 17 years old and Gianna 14 years old are these fierce and powerful vampires along with their parents. Shaking her head as to not let it get to her, Angelle looks around the semi-empty beach, most Mysticals are at work and the stay-at-home Mysticals has taken their children to the beach or the farmer's market to pick up some groceries.

Angelle wiggles her toes in the cool sand as the sun is setting on the horizon, Angelle always thought the sunrise and sunset is the most beautiful thing in the world. Checking her watch, she stands up and brushes her shorts off and tucks her auburn colored hair behind her ear and makes her way home.

Her family Queen Cayenne and King Vicsin rules the Southern part of Euphoria Island. Angelle walks into the semi-mansion victorian and is greeted by the smooth melody of the grand piano that her brother; Donatello sits at all the time trying to perfect his "musical genius". Their mother, Queen Cayenne sits in her favorite blue leather recliner with Gianna by her side. Angelle could remember Gianna would always sit at their mother's feet and watch her sew for hours at a time; closely. She figures that Gianna finally got their mom to show her how to sew; Gianna had nagged their mom for weeks to show her.

 Angelle ambles to her room to only be stopped half way by the female housemaid name Tricia Owens. Tricia is a nymph that has worked for the Lockheart family for a few years now. Angelle looks at Tricia trying to figure out what she wanted. With a nervous stutter Tricia answers, "Dinner w-will be-be ready soon."

Angelle smiles and places a friendly hand on Tricia's shoulder, "Thank you."

The kind gesture makes Tricia smile and gives Angelle's hand a gentle squeeze. She then makes her way downstairs to tell the rest of the family about dinner being almost ready. Angelle continues upstairs to her room which is at the very top of the semi-mansion. She loves being up in her room because she could see the entire island and what almost everyone is doing. The melody of the piano still playing, she sits at her padded windowsill and looks out the island.

The island is extremely huge and is protected by 15 magical wards called Infinities; that are in the ocean's depths. No one has to worry about any Imari trying to invade Euphoria because of the Infinities. Angelle thought it is cool how the Infinities protects everyone when she learned about them in school; her first year attending MorningStar Headstart for the intelligently gifted. If any Imari were to ever set eyes on Euphoria the Infinities would erase their memory of ever coming across the beautiful island. Also, the island isn't on any map or ship's radar. Angelle smiles knowing that her parents went through great lengths to protect their family and other families.

A knock on her blue thick wood door interrupts her thoughts, "Come in, dad."

Her father; a slender man with ocean blue eyes and a chocolate complexion enters and stands by his daughter; closing the door with his mind. He too stares out the window. Angelle figures that now would be a good time to tell her father more about the strange and unusual dreams that she has been having for the past 4 months now. "Quite peaceful, isn't it?"

 Angelle smiles still looking out the window as the sun slowly sets and some of the Mysticals try to get last minute things done. She feels his eyes on her this causes Angelle to look up at him, "Father?" Her voice holds some concern.

 By this time, he is folding his arms across his broad chest as he is prepared to listen to his youngest daughter. "Yes, Angie?"

 She scrunches up her face at the nickname he has given her since she was 3 years old. For some reason or another she always hated that name but never told her father. But, she knew with his powers of telepathy. She proceeds with her question, "What would happen if the Imaris found out about Euphoria?"

 A very grim expression covers his face, "A war would happen; shattering many lives here and disturbing the peaceful tranquil that is Euphoria. Why? What worries you, Angelle? Are you still having those awful nightmares?"

 Angelle goes back to staring out the window, staring at nothing in particular. "Yes, they are getting more and more clear. It's like I am actually there. Then they end with me getting shot. Or I am watching this war." Tears swell up in her eyes as sweat rolls down her forehead.

 Her father places a reassuring hand on Angelle's shoulder, then begins to coo at Angelle; something he has always done as a little baby to calm her down, till this day it still works.  and offers a very warm smile. Angelle always loves it when her father smiles because it always brightens up her day, even on her foggiest of days. "Some will stay to help fight for the cause while others will flee understandingly. As for your dreams, I am sure that you just have a lot on your mind with school finals and that college study thing."

 Angelle laughs at her father's ability to try and remember all that she tells him. She corrects him, "The college state test, father."

 "Meh," He shrugs his shoulders playfully. "Now, get washed up for dinner." He leaves the room and she struts into her bathroom that is built in her bedroom. Except for her parent's room, her room is the only room that has a bathroom in it. She stares into her steel red painted framed mirror at her bright silver eyes, light mocha complexion, and her auburn colored, curly chest length hair. She runs the water, washes her face, and hands. Angelle makes her way downstairs to the dining room where her family is waiting for her.

 Angelle's place at the table is always by her father, however there are times when Gianna would take her seat for no reason at all or just out of spite. Not this time, Gianna's usual place is always by their mother and Donatello would sit by Angelle. Tricia and a few other housemaids brings out the food and goes back to the kitchen.

 Cayenne and Viscin do not believe in having slaves or help of any kind but, when Tricia and the others were escaping some kind of horrid experiment down in Jongil, Cayenne and Viscin rescued them, it was when the island was in its prime, and Tricia and the others wanted to re-pay them. At first, Cayenne and Viscin would not allow it but with lots of pleads and some kind of contract stateing that they can leave whenever they want. They all agreed to the terms and Viscin even built them their own shelter in which over the years, the Nymphs and Sprites they saved added more to it and made it into a servicing shop with the same contract that the Lockhearts gave them years ago.

 Cayenne Lockheart rules with an iron fist having no nonsense for anything that is bad behavior. If found guilty then the Mysticals either sit in jail for a few months or service; depending on what the situation is and it's severity of the situation. However, Vicsin Lockheart is the opposite. He feels like everyone deserves a second chance and sometimes a third; no matter what the situation is. Cayenne and Viscin match each other perefectly at all times. They are soulloves. Soulloves are like soulmates but deeper than that.
