For being nocturnal, you woke up early, like normal, it's only around 8 p.m.. But you could tell this was not a normal day. You get up and get dressed in your normal creme white dress and black flats. The servant known as Emily brings you a breakfast of oats and cream, you thank her and eat in solitude. Your sister is still asleep when you bring your bowl to the kitchen, hey your not that much of a snob that you make that staff clean up everything after you.

As you wonder this castle in search of your disappearing parents. Now they dont have the power to vanish, but they were not in their room this morning.

You feel a familiar pull in your gut then you see the trail. Your not exactly like your sister in terms of powers. Hers are more advanced, having werewolf genes too. Although you are only a few years older you still pick on her about she got saddled with the responsibility of more power then has ever been given to anyone, ever. She has to be the perfect role model for all young children and adults in the kingdom while you get to sit back and relax as your duties only extend as far as taking care of the gardens and fields of farmers, everything gets burned down giving the ground time to revitalize itself..

Being part pheonix-banchee hybrid like your younger sister even if you can't scream, this happens alot. Trails are just a normal thing nowadays.

You dont think about where your going untill you stop in front of the door. Not just any old door. The one that has been locked since before you were born, which was a long time ago.

Its surrounded by red faded paper, and the glow that comes out the edges moves as your vision shifts. Nothing special about the door itself that you know of. Just what's behind it.

'But....what is behind it?'

You ask yourself what you only later realized was out loud. You heard noises a thump and a wimper. You listen closer and hear it again, you realize it isn't a thump noise but more of a thwack like someone being hit repeatedly. You yelled at the door,asking if it was your Father. It was but his scream instead of answering you.

"Get away from the door, RUN"

But it sounds like he's still sleeping.....like he is in a night terror.
It's all you hear before the door slams open and you are met with heavy breathing and unconsciousness.

Your sister wakes up when your father screamed unbennounced to you. She slowly made her way towards you half asleep following your trail, as all banchees can sense where another has been.

When she finaly reaches you, two hours later, she gets shaken up and screams.

Now to a normal person this is the correct response given what she was facing, but for a banchee screaming opens your mind and clears it. Its like giving you enemy all your memories, your fears,and worst of all your weaknesses. She let them all go in one loud, long scream.

She then goes over to you and your parents and wakes you up and heals you with Paisley, her Phoenixs,tears.

You sit up and say nothing as you noticed the walls were bleeding, but she starts for the throne.

The one made of diamond. For the Queen. The queen made for bedtime stories and fantasy not real. She cant be. You try to pull her back but fail. You notice more blood on the walls as she says,

'You have woken the sleeping. Now. You must despair, my child'

Then you snap out of your trance

When you wake up in the marbled hospital wing of the castle, you try to reason with yourself, that it was just a dream, that if you go check on your sister she will be in her room alseep. She had a good night's rest and you were holusinateing. Everything is alright you can go back to your everyday life. No responseabilities, no fear, no loss. No disappointment.

That's not gonna happen though, and you know it. She is gone. For good this time. She is now the holder of the throne and there is no getting her back.

Or is there.

You go see the witch
