20 Minutes before my Arrival:
"Watch out ladies..." My crimson lips pout, "..I'm coming to get you."
My reflection whipsers to me and I can't help but blush. I close my eyes and dream of a perfect place. A place filled with flowers and gold. I open my eyes again and I am there.
And I am the gold's reflection...
Distantly the roar of some beast disturbs me. I sigh and the dream fades away.
And once again I am all that's good here.
I am reminded again of my surroundings. The smell of dirt and animals is strong here, as is the persistant groan of the wood that surrounds me. I glance at my bed and I shudder, a stack of hay. Regulated by the staff here to the barn.
A sick joke perpetuated by the evil witch that is De'Ville.
I raise an eyebrow.
I would kill her if she wasn't so beautiful....
I take a look at the cracked mirror again, and I frown at my outfit.
Lint...
I brush it away with a casual swipe.
"You will not get the best of me my sweet!" I scream to myself and the memory of De'Ville, "I will get the last laugh."
I am answered by the grunt of some animal. I sigh again, "And all they give me to wear is this..."
I frown again at the outfit. A simple black jacket with dirty blue jeans.
Disgusting.
I collapse backwards on the "bed".
"Maybe I should forget it." I whisper, "Maybe I should just get some sleep and wait for Gav to get me."
I frown, "The hells with that. I'm going to this nightclub and damn anyone that tries to stop me."
I look back at the mirror and for a second a flicker of that dream is there. Gold upon gold upon gold......
I grin sheepishly, "Ladies...you have no idea what you have been missing."
At Valentines Club; 12:00 a.m.:
The entrance is crowded with the young of Iziz. I manuever swiftly, gaining access easily with just a smile.
Inside the music is a hum of beats, rythmatically clashing against the structure of the building. I smile and glance around.
"To be young and in love..." I whisper as my violet eyes scan the room, "and all I need is one...."
Distantly a young woman sits isolated at a small round table, her date turned away from her with another woman.
And on the verge of tears too.
I sigh, "Too easy..."
Within seconds I have cleared the distance, and my hand is out stretched to her. I smile, allowing it to do the talking.
She blinks and melts. I bring her to my arms and hold her tight.
"A dance?" I whisper, my words sending shockwaves through her body.
She doesn't have to answer. I already know.
The brute she is with dosn't pay attention as his date is swept away and into the middle of the floor....
