*trigger warning*Lamia
This way
I heard the voice speak to me into the night once again. I scrunched my forehead together and continued to walk further into the forest and away from the castle. There was a gut-wrenching guilt that came upon me every time I thought of the lie I told her. Casie was not here but this voice has been calling for me, and I felt myself almsot going crazy every time It spoke.
I parted the tree branches and stepped on fallen ones bringing a crunching noise in the quiet forest. All at once, there was a strange sound of strings playing in the forest, followed by a laughter, and there was more sound of voices blending with each other. I sped up my walk in the direction of noise, the laughter grew louder and so were the instruments playing. I parted a tree branch in hopes that I would find its source only to find an empty space, the noises, music and laughter were gone. The loud silence of the cold night served as the only source of noise. I turned back when I could no longer make out any of the trees becuase of the darkness engulfing the forest. Yet as soon as I turned my back, the noises resumed, the familiar noises.
Lamia!
I whipped my head towards the direction of the noise only to find nothing once again. Yet when I turned my head forward a white figure stood near my face. I yelped and fell back, shivering in fear and holding the side of my head. I shut my eyes tightly and rocked back and forth. I felt its presence coming to me and a touch that was warm, comforting and gentle rested on my shoulder. I hesitantly lifted my head and looked up at a woman's figure towering upon me. She was light, and I found myself blinded. White light were reflecting at her sides and her features were hard to see but somehow I knew that it was flawless and breathtaking.
"Rise daughter" She spoke majestically, her voice deep and loud. I slowly rose from the ground and stood at her height yet she was much taller. I could feel Lisa bow to her, I mimicked her and bowed. The woman smiled offering her hand to me, I scrunched my forehead and confusion tilting my head slightly. Her eyes were somehow attracting in ways I couldn't describe, yet I felt myself taking her hand into mine.
In a quick instance, my eyes blurred and darkness surrounded me but before I lost myself, her voice spoke to me once again, "We've been waiting for you"
----
"Your Majesty" I heard myself chuckle as a pair of arms wrapped itself around me, I turn my head slightly to see Theia chuckle at my expression before gently putting me down.
It was as if I had no control of the moment but it still continued. It was as if I was in someones story.
"I've been waiting for you" She spoke as she pulled me into her embrace, inhaling my scent and pulling back to kiss my forehead. I looked up at her in confusion to which she didn't catch on and continued staring into my eyes like I was someone she already knew.
"I apologise for taking awhile, but the market was indeed magical" I found myself speaking, pulling back from her and spinning. I turned to see that I was holding a basket in my head, before glancing back at the woman who stood before me. She smiled and suddenly I felt as if I was being pulled back, forcefully until I was thrown at the ground
I was hyperventilating as my chest pounded, looking around furiously but it was only darkness. I shut my eyes tightly and held my breathe and suddenly I felt a drop of water on my head. I looked up to only feel more rain drop on my figure. Men shouting and the sounds of swords were the only thing I heard, I blocked my ear and winced at every sound.
"Lamia!" I heard someone shout, "Lamia!" A voice screamed once again. I whipped my head trying to find its source, slowly standing up and once I did, I felt the whole world slow down. Everything was silent but the sound of the rain and thunders in the sky. I took a step under the muddy ground and tried to find who was calling out my name. I saw a familiar figure stand from afar, Theia was looking around in confusion. Her eyes landed on me, and I could see her mouth move, or more like scream. Her eyes were red as she ran to me but as soon as she took one step, everything was once again loud, men shouting and bodied dropping on the ground. I turned towards Theia who looked at me horrified, I choked out and coughed only to see my hands covered in blood. I looked down to find a sword piercing through my stomach followed by a gut-wrenching scream.
