Chapter 11: first encounter

Darks pov****

I winced in pain as Celeste treated my hand. And let me describe her.

Painful..

"Celeste it hurts!"

She huffed, "it's a freaking burn! I'm sorry what else should I do?!"

I sniffed, "be more gentle ;~;?"

She sighed and finished by wrapping my arm with bandages.

Once everything was done I laid my head on her lap and smirked.

"Dark I was going to get up."

"Not anymore you aren't."

She huffed and  started playing with my hair. She must have realize arguing with me was useless.

I frowned, "hey cel?"

She stopped, "yeah?"

"Once everything is done, will you go back to your home?"

I saw the look on her face change when I asked the question. She sighed, "I, I don't know dark. Most likely. My family is over there I can't just leave them."

I sat up, somewhat hurt with her answer. But honestly what did I expect? Like she said, her family is back on earth.

"I'm sorry dark..."

I sighed and kissed her forehead, "don't be love. Now change, I'm tired and I wanna sleep."

She laughed , "hmm where have I heard that before?"

I smirked, "I have no idea what you're talking about."

She smirked and laid under the covers, "when can I get my own room?"

I groaned, "never. You're sleeping here until you have to go back home."

I heard her laugh and pull the covers up to keep herself warm and fell asleep.

I smiled at Celeste's sleeping figure and chuckled, how she manages to fall asleep so fast is beyond me.

And I want to learn her ways.

I smiled as I moved stray hairs away from her face and fell asleep right beside her.

Anna's pov****

I yawned as I walked over to my room. I had told Sonya she could take the day off to do whatever she wanted and that I could manage until morning.

I was after all and ordinary California girl. I wasn't used to maids.

I changed out of my dress and into my white night gown. I sat in front of the mirror and started brushing my hair.

I caught sight of my engagement ring and sighed.

"I miss you.."

Then I frowned. Be honest, who did I really miss?

Jeremy?

Or the man that Seira brought home the same day I found dark and zant on the road.

What did I do that made him hate me all of the sudden?

"My don't you look sad."

I gasped and saw a woman smirking at me from behind.

I stood up and turned around, "who are you?"

She sighed and got off the bed, with a disappointed look on her face.

"My, did she really hated us to the point she never told her children about me?"

I frowned, "what are you talking about?"

She started walking around the room, looking at different objects. "Did mommy really not tell you about her siblings?"

I blinked a bit confused, "y-yeah I mean she had two sist-"

"Three, three sisters and a brother." She laughed, "well, technically she was the half sister."

I stood there confused.

My mother had more siblings?

"I don't get it.."

She chuckled, "of course you don't, so that's why I came here. To introduce my self. My name is Roxanne. Your aunt."

I frowned.

Something isn't right.

"My aunt?"

"Yes child, unfortunately for you though... I don't consider you family." She smirked and disappeared.

Only to reappear in front of me and grab me by the neck.

I let out a strangled cry as I tried to pry her hands off my throat.

She laughed. "Disgusting, just look at the filth you are.. My brother enjoyed torturing his victims mentally but I'll tell you I'm different. I like to hear mine scream."

I saw her pull out a small knife, "sadly mommy won't be here to protect you like last time." She smirked and started to carve into the skin of my arm.

I screamed until my throat was sore.

And she laughed even louder. "Look here! And you're supposed to be the oldest! The heir! And you brake with a little pain."

I whimpered as she continued cutting down my arm.

"Why don't you just kill me already!"

She laughed, "now where is the fun in that?"

I spat in her face. I don't know why but I see that a lot in movies.

So ehh, why not?

She glared wiping her cheek with her sleeve and slapped me hard on the face, letting me fall to the ground.

"I think I've tortured you enough for one night. How about we finish you off?" She smirked and the knife she was holding grew into a sword.

I laid on the floor unable to move from the blood loss. I closed my eyes waiting for the blow.

But it never came.

"ANNA!"

I saw needles hit  Roxanne in her hand making her cry out in pain.

Roxanne glared, "well this complicates things, I'll be leaving now! But first, there is one last thing I need to do."

I blinked a couple of times, trying to keep my vision from going black. Roxanne dodged the attacks of the man and appeared right Behind him and slashed his back with her sword. Then she turned to me in the same fast speed and drove her sword right in my stomach.

"Have fun visiting your mother in hell."

And she was gone.

I felt someone run up to me, "Anna stay with me, keep your eyes open."

I recognize that voice.

"Anna look at me."

I breathed, and looked at him the best I could.

"Sheik, It hurts...."

He pressed on my wounds and nodded, "I know, it's ok, you'll be ok. Just stay awake."

I heard someone else running into the room, by the sound of the footsteps there were  four more that came in.

"Anna!"

"Sheik let me handle her, get your wound checked first."

"No I'm fine."

I frowned.

"Anna it's me Nikki!"

I heard shuffling and I felt more pressure on my abdomen.

Later all sounds became muffled.

"Anna stay with us. Don't fall asleep, stay with us."

I couldn't stay awake longer. I lost too much blood. My vision went black and I blacked out.
