**Desmia**

"Let me out of here!" I scream as sobs shudder through my entire body.

"Screaming and crying isn't going to get you anywhere." I hear a voice from the far side of the room. I turn slowly around to see Caroline.

"What are you doing here?" I say pouting. For once, I don't envy her beauty and grace. For once she is not smiling and glowing in her Shiny way. Her face is cold and calculating, not at all like I was used to. She shed her Shiny clothes to reveal something dark and sinister. She wasn't a Shiny. She probably never had been. Her blue eyes were the color of lightning bolts, not the color of the sky. Her skin wasn't creamy alabaster like it had been, now it was nearly white as snow. Her hair was like a dancing flame. There were the same purple bruises that had been under Andrew's eyes when he was in the dungeons. She wasn't a Shiny. She was a dark Shadow. 

"How did you keep up the facade, Caroline?" I asked. She floated around the room, explaining as she went.

"Andrew; he wasn't glowing because I had been feeding off of his energy. I was using his good light to cover up my own nature. I was nice and kind so I would gain your trust, if I had been just being nice, it never would've worked. But since I was using it for a sinister cause, it allowed me to do things that only a Shiny would do. Not many Shadows know this art. The only way to learn it is to travel near and far and find the oldest Shadow who knows everything there is to know about being a Shadow."

"But why did you require me here?" I ask, still confused.

"Because the prophecy in the book of revolution says that you are the one who can end this constant war."

"I can end the war?" I said sarcastically. 

"Yes, you can help the Shadows take over. All you have to do is figure out how." I didn't want to help the Shadows. They were mean and cruel. Everything they did had an ulterior motive, but not a good or nice one.

"But how am I supposed to figure that out?"

"You'll have a lot of time to think in here; won't you? I mean, since you've been arrested." she says with a smirk on her face.

"No thanks to you." I mutter.

"You will learn to be grateful. You will be the Shadow's queen if you help us succeed. A few years in here will drain your kindness and happiness, it will be replaced by hatred and the need to avenge all of the terrible things that are going to happen, to the world, and to your family." she said spitefully.

"No, not my family." I fret.

"And I'll be sure that something very gruesome happens to that boy you always speak of."

"Not Andrew!" I yell at her. "Leave him alone!" She laughs.

"The Shadows will destroy everything and everyone you love, Mia. You can't stop them." she taunts with a cruel smile plastered on her still angelic face. A dark purple and blue hurricane-like thing begins to engulf her and in mere seconds, she's gone. I throw myself on the cot, crying. Tears stream down my face as I realize there's no going back now. There's no way that I'm going to be able to get out of here without a tremendous fight.

**Andrew**

We were sitting in Desmia's, now Serena's room. She was looking through all of Mia's things as to get a better idea of what she was supposed to like. All of a sudden, I felt very claustrophobic. Like I was trapped. This happened sometimes but most of the time it was only for a little. "Do you feel that?" I ask Serena. She looks at me like I'm crazy.

"Feel what?" she asks.

"Like, I don't know... Like you're stuck somewhere? Or trapped?" I tried to explain.

"No, you must be losing your mind, Andrew." she says.

"I'm not!" I protest but then I realize that no one was going to believe me anyway.

"Andrew, why do you love Desmia?" she asks out of the blue. I stare at her, dumbfounded.

"What kind of question is that?" I ask her.

"If I am to act like this princess, I must know why the people and those closest to her love her so much." she says but I don't believe that this is the only reason she has. She's hiding something. 'I love her because she's the exact opposite of you.' I thought to myself but out loud I didn't say that.

"I never said that I loved her." I say. She rolls her eyes. 

"We both know it's true. Just tell me already." she says.

I sigh. "I love Desmia because she's kind. She's sweet and she has a good heart. She has the best intentions and can find something nice to say about anyone. She can always make me happy and she can make me laugh when I don't even want to smile. She's so easy to like and be around, it's as easy as breathing. This goes for everyone, not just me. And when she smiles the whole room stops to watch her shine for a few moments. "

"You've got it bad for her." Serena says, teasing me.I just roll my eyes in response. "Why haven't you told her how you feel?" she asks.

"Because she's the princess and I'm just... Just me." I try to explain, getting a little frustrated because I can't think of a better way to explain it.

"But you're perfect." she says and I look at her in confusion.

"What?" I ask.

"Never mind." she says quickly.

"You have a crush on me." I accuse, mocking her words from earlier.

"Don't be silly." she mumbles, rolling her eyes. But her cheeks are burning with a light pink blush.
