Hello, do you remember me? I'm the one that shares your curse. How are you, Krism? Krism turned to find nothing behind her. She sighed closed her eyes.
I'm just imagining things, she said to herself, he isn't here. He could never find me. She brushed her black hair back. It doesn't matter what happend in the past, it only matters what happens now.
Oh Really? What about your red eye? Your past affected that, I affected that. What about all the times you leave Minx every full moon to hide your blood-red eye? Hmm? Krism started to steam with anger, he had no right to talk about those things.
Wow, I must be really losing it to think that he is still here, let alone communicating with me.
Oh, i'm here alright. So how's you little Minxy? Or Cry? How 'bout Pewds? Maybe Ken? Oh I know, how's your eye been doing the past couple of days huh? JUST SHUT UP! YOU ARE NEVER ALOWED TO SAY MY FREINDS' NAMES! Especially not Minx!
I struck a chord didn't I? Oh well, at least you didn't say anything about the ol' eye! So have you been seeing things lately? Felt any pain? Oh, how about your anger issues? Do you still lose control and kill the innocent? If you say no, then we both know that you are lying. Let's just hope you won't harm anyone, excluding Minx of of course. We both know you are going to kill her someday. Even though she's your lover.
"NO!" Krism screamed as she woke up, sweating and her heart was racing, the fear still in her eyes.
"What's wrong, Lady Krism?! Are you okay?" A maid asked her as she barged into the room. "We heard you scream, so I came and checked". Krism sighed, how was she ever going to explain the cause of her scream? If she told the complete truth, she would have a few things to answer, but if she just said she had a bad dream, she would appear weak. Anything is better than the truth. She thought.
"No, i'm alright Emma. Thank you for checking though, I uh, had a bad dream. You can leave now". Emma started to exit but then stopped.
"You sure you're alright? I mean, I can call the Queen in if you would like?" Krism considered the idea for a minute. If she would say yes, she would have to explain to Minx. If she would say no, word would probbably get around and Minx would find out anyways.
"I'm sure, thanks Emma. I can alwasy count on you". Emma started to leave the room but Krism stopped her. "Don't tell anyone about our little disussion, please. I wouldn't want to have to fire you, now would I?" Emma quickly nodded her head. Krism had a way to make everything so persuasive.
"I won't, milady. But what should I tell the others?" Emma asked her, very confused. Why would Lady Krism want this to be a secret? Why not tell everyone? Maybe it was because she is always so fearless, she doesn't want to show her own weakness.
"Just tell them everythings alright". Emma then promptly left the room all to Krism.
What can I do now?
It's simple. You're all alone. No one can help you except me. So it would be best for you to give up now, before I have to come and find you and your little Minxy. Don't you think that would be best?
I don't believe you! How can I be sure that this isn't just me imagining things?Krism accuesed the voice in her head.
Because I can do this! The voice shouted at her as she then felt immense pain in her crimson eye. Because I still have at least some power over you. I always was the better one, wasn't I, Lady Krism? The voice jeered at her, mocking her title. People are going to find out about your past, one way, or another. I WILL make that happen. I promise you that much.
