❧Prologue❧
A dream
The soft breeze sent goose bumps sprawling up my skin in strokes. I sucked in a breath and gazed around, the beauty of the real world engulfing me into pure happiness. Letting out the cool breeze I walked forward, feeling careless and almost in flight. The feeling of freedom urged me on as I walked to the large oak tree that stood out against the scenery of wheat swaying back and forth in a rhythmic pace. This place was all too familiar and predictable, yet so unknown and strange.
As sweet sounding birds zipped past, to chase whatever was out there in the distance, the other surroundings stayed silent. The sweet whoosh of the branches and the wheat combined made me feel even more relaxed as I climbed up the oak tree. The way the branches were arranged it was simple and easy to climb, making me have to hardly work at all. I reached into the hole inside of the tree where my notepad usually was.
As I touched the fragile paper memories flooded my mind. Some unpleasant and hurtful, others cheerful and happy. I flipped through the pages; something was definitely wrong. I blinked up from my paper as the swaying sound was interrupted by a loud screeching sound. I flipped through the pages once more, pictures fluttering past my eyes. Except these weren't my pictures.
No, these were satanic horrible and ruined. I gasped in despair and felt as though all of my memories had been taken from me, stolen right out of my own safe haven. I gazed up from the pages as I felt static whip through the air and past my face. The skies had turned from sunny and warm to dark and cold. I felt my body tremble as I realized the lightning was striking at least one hundred yards away.
A loud snap was sounded as two figures appeared in the distance. I knew where I was; in my dream I had created a world where I could get away from the fears of the outside. Or had I? Screw that what I really want to know was this even really a dream or maybe a nightmare? The figures stopped far away from the tree. I closed my eyes and imagined them disappearing "Go away, go away go away…" I whispered and peeked one eye open. They were still there, standing tall and large.
I began to panic as I realized; I was no longer in control of my dream. I swung my legs over in a moment of pure desperation as I tried to hop off the branch, but instead I was flung toward the dark shadows. I gazed up, dazed and in shock. The man picked me up and threw me back down to the ground, beating my body repeatedly with his fists. "You thought you could run away from me?" The eerie voice hissed in my bruised face. I swallowed "No! I don't know what you're talking about or who you are!" I was lying. I knew who he was, but I was afraid of him, afraid of what he could do to me.
He grabbed my collar and held me up to face him, his teeth gritted. "Maybe you need a better look." He spat in my face and threw me to the ground, my eyes traveling to the 'bystander' who happened to be standing beside him. I didn't recognize the man; all I knew was that he was Indian. The Indian man held up his hand as the other man, Devas, kicked me in the back repeatedly. "We need her alive." He reminded him in a cold, scratchy voice. I blinked and looked up at him as he shot me a wicked smile.
"Hello, miss," The man said "My, Devas, you didn't tell me how beautiful she was. She'd make a perfect wife." Devas snickered as he pulled me up to face the other man. "Stand up straight." He growled and hit my sore back. I stood up straight immediately and stared the other man in the face. "I'm Lokesh, beautiful, I apologize for interrupting your… beautiful… heart wrenching dream." Lokesh said and twirled my hair around his finger.
I couldn't stop the tears from dripping from my eyes as my fear for both of them was undeniable. "What do you want? Why can't you just leave me alone?" I sputtered and tried to push out of his grasp. "Feisty are you?" Devas' voice made me shudder as he wrapped an arm around my waist and kissed me on the cheek. A disgusting, wet kiss that made me grimace. "You know why I want you, my Sun, and I will take it from you. Only one thing can make me change my mind." Devas said, and with that he began to fade away. "Wait!" I exclaimed and reached out to the evaporating image. "Please tell me!"
