Suffocating...Pain...Fear...Sadness...


I watched the event unfold quickly. People were beaten, stabbed, torn away from their families; Blood, tears, screams, I heard and felt it all. They were forced to change into monsters; familiar eyes watched everything, eyes belonging to one person...


Sinbad was in pain...I had to help him...I had to be by him!


I sat up quickly as tears ran down my face, and I looked around the room, which was dark, with only the moon being the only source of light.



"Queen, what happened?" Tanrans voice whispered in my head, I shook my head,


"I-i don't know, I need-I need to get to Sinbad!" I said in a hushed voice, and I fell out of my bed in a rush.


Putting my shoes on, I was cautious about leaving my room; Once the coast was clear, I hurried to Sinbads room and knocked. Waiting a few moments and knocking again.



"Sinbad, I-i'm coming in," I said in a loud enough voice, then opened his door and peeked in. He wasn't there.



"Where is he?" I questioned out loud, and images flashed in my head of Sinbad in pain.


I collapsed to the floor in silent tears. The overwhelming sadness raked through me, and I gasped for air. 


"Queen, I know where he is," Varon's voice said suddenly, I nodded and shakily got up.

"Varon, I don't want anyone to know it's me, they'll recognize me," I said to Varon as I took hold of the metal vessel.


"Don't fret my queen, you are more than capable of making your form different," he said confidently,


I gripped the staff and felt the power course through me. I didn't have time to be crying, Sinbad needed me more than anything, and if I had to be his strength, as well as my own, I will do it.  My form changed to the full-body equip and I thought of my form as a majestic bird, one people would have to see, to believe anyone. I leaped out the window and flew above the city. I looked around and the moonlight seemed to be focused on the island. 


"There my queen, that's where he is," Varon's voice said and I made my way there. 


The wind felt a bit harsh, but that wasn't my concern at the moment.  I didn't want to waste time, so I hurried myself to the island. In a blink of an eye, I was on the ground, and rushing toward the one building that didn't sit right with me. The research facility...
