Chapter Sixteen
Once again Cece didn't know where she was, like was like her body was floating, it was like she was floating in a world that she had no control over. Cece was standing in a place that she had never seen. The place would almost be beautiful if it didn't look like it was haunted by a ghost or something damaged.
Cecelia stood in front of a deep lake, a tree on her left and a tree on her right, she just didn't feel right. The air felt thin and the ground felt... it felt off.
"ᴡɪᴛʜᴇʀ ᴀɴᴅ ᴅᴇᴄᴀʏ,"
Cece's head spun as she looked for the sound of the voice, 'this was another dream.' Though something was different from her last dream, the voice, the voice was undoubtedly her mother's voice but not the one she heard in her last dream.
"Hello?" She asked as her voice echoed through the room, nothing. The tall girl no longer felt tall as she looks up, "How tall is this place?"
"What's that?" she cried, jumping as something touched her. She looked around once more, trying to find what had just touched her.
"ᴇɴᴅ ᴛʜɪꜱ ᴅᴇꜱᴛɪɴʏ,"
"Show yourself!" Cece demanded, all of her queen training kicking in, she was scared because she, unlike Flynn and Ana, has no idea how to protect herself. She looked in the lake, in the trees, she looked anywhere but the voice sounded like it came from everywhere.
"ʙʀᴇᴀᴋ ᴛʜᴇꜱᴇ ᴇᴀʀᴛʜʟʏ ᴄʜᴀɪɴꜱ,"
These lyrics, they terrified Cece, they sounded so hauntingly beautiful but cruel at the same time.
What do you do when you are stuck in a dream? Pinch yourself. The brunette pinched her pale skin on her arm, she closed her eyes ever-so-slightly as she counted to three. "Why aren't I waking up?" She asked getting panicked.
"ᴀɴᴅ ꜱᴇᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴘɪʀɪᴛ ꜰʀᴇᴇ,"
Cece softly touched her throat as she felt the air around her thickened. Slowly she started to lose her breath, one second, two seconds went by as Cece felt as if she was drowning.
"Pl-please-"
"ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴘɪʀɪᴛ ꜰʀᴇᴇ."

"Some nightmare you must have been having," Lex said to Cece as the older girl shot out of her large bed. Cece was breathing heavily as hand was still softly touching her neck.
"And set the spirit free," she muttered to herself before grabbing her bedside notebook and writing down the lyrics;
Wither and decay
End this destiny
Break these earthly chains
And set the spirit free
The spirit free
"I had another dream," concern was obviously one of the many emotions in Cece's voice and unlike most occasions Lex wasn't being a total arsehole. The dark haired girl looked at the words written on the page, "Don't say it-"
Last time, Flynn read the lyrics, it triggered a reaction. Cecelia never wants to see what this incarnation might trigger, she doesn't want to learn if this dream is just a dream or a vision.
"This is dangerous, my hair is dangerous."
