Things are not always as they seem

Hi! I do not and I repeat I do not own Sleepy Hollow or the characters except Selena!!!!!! I LOVE SLEEPY HOLLOW!!!!!!!!!

Chapter 1: Something is coming

Selena sat up quickly in her bed sweat dripping down her forehead as cracks of light began to filter inside her bedroom through her window. "Those eyes....", she whispered. Before Selena had had time to contemplate her dream she was disturbed.

"Oh thank goodness, as Katrina entered her sisters room, I thought that you would sleep for the rest of the day", as she skipped over to her older sisters bed and plopped down concern crossing her face as she noticed her sisters appearance.

"Selena are you alright?", reaching out and taking her sisters hand in her's as if to comfort her. Selena squeezed her sister's hand turned her head and smiled sweetly towards her sister. "Of coarse Katrina why would you think not?", trying her best to change the subject.

"You look like you had a nightmare", frowning slightly at her sisters lie. Selena stood up and walked over to her mirror to look at herself. Her appearance didn't look any different, perhaps from waking up from her deep sleep her black hair was disheveled sticking to her forehead because of the sweat, her light blue eyes tired and a slight blush in her usual pale cheeks. Selena looked nothing like her sister.

Katrina took more after her father while Selena was a spitting image of her mother. While Katrina was a child of light and sweetness blond and every mans fantasy, Selena was a mysterious and fragile looking creature though she was not.

Selena lived in a world where only faith and love could truly live in a world where she took after her mothers special gift. Her gift of witchcraft. A child of nature she was, pure as the driven snow, her eyes alluring and knowing. Probably that's why her father still looked pained every time he saw his eldest daughter.

Selena was the age of 23 already being taken over by suitors for her hand in marriage. She thought nothing of these men although like every woman she wished for a lover. But none made her feel what she wanted to feel unlike young Katrina only 19 but already knowing what love was as for loving Brom Van Brunt. The only thing Selena thought of when being near Brom was to laugh at him but she pitied her sister for he never turned a glance towards her but instead feasted upon Selena which she absolutely abhorred.

Selena sighed and stared at her reflection looking away from it to look at her sisters reflection noticing her sister looking deeply at her in the mirror, "Katrina, my mind is so be riddled I am not even sure if it was a nightmare or one of the most beautiful dreams I ever experienced," remembering the dark and alluring figure with the most darkest eyes that she had ever seen, like a rich chocolate but another figure standing in the way causing this beautiful mans death. A horseman.

Selena shuddered and turned to her sister, "Katrina I feel that something is going to happen in Sleepy Hollow, something is coming". Katrina looked on terrified, "More terrible then the horseman and the Van Garret family murders?" A week ago the Van Garrets where murdered, Peter Van Garret, Dirk Van Garret, and Lady Emily Winship by the so called Headless Horseman taking their heads in process.

"I truly do not know", her eyes become dark azures staring at Katrina. Selena smiled, "But no matter tonight we are having a party and we must try not to burden our minds with such gory thoughts", taking her sister's hand while they walked out of the room.
