Levana stood there cruelly laughing ,through the flames ,that burned cinder whole. This time there was nothing but burning ,no arm, no leg, just melted flesh and ash. Cinder was being burnt alive. She tried to scream but to was unheard over Levana's laughing . that laughing that horrid horrid laughing. It was the worst part of it all . Cinder couldn't stand to, no cinder couldn't stand her , the witch that Terrible witch. The monster that started the fire, the monster that tried to kill her many times . She could count, due to the programming in her head. Levana was pure evil. She kept on laughing until cinder woke up.

She was soaked with sweat and her bed was a mess to say the least.

"Stars" she whispered to herself. Even in this heavily guarded bedroom, cinder didn't feel ?"she was iS dead" again whispered to herself not convincingly. Why had Levana haunted her, Maybe it was just the castle, she wasn't used to places lunars lived. She probably shouldn't be so judgemental not all lunars were bad, and she was a lunar herself, but still .Cinder checked the clock, 4:42 " sleep time" but that was easier said than done. The bedroom itself was creepy, even if it was a guest room, it had a bad feel to it. Everywhere in the castle did. All the rotten blood gave the place a bad tone. After twenty minutes of trying, she gave up ,checked her internal port and read her e books. She didn't have many, considering, she didn't have much time to read but, she had a few for times like this. They helped take her mind of Levana just a little bit. Cinder ended up reading her favourite book until sunrise.

Iko was standing at Cinders side in one of the conference rooms,one of the only places cinder said she could focus on her work. Something with her seemed wrong but, she didn't know what it was and it was gnawing her to the bone. Maybe it was all this stress, with all this work, ruling a moon, cinder probably ned a rest. Either way right now Iko felt useless and needed to do some thing, maybe talking would help. So thats just what she did.

"How was your sleep " she asked

Just fine why you don't even sleep" well that was just plain offensive. what was next, you don't have taste buds, your an android incapable of feeling. That was it, if cinder was being this way so was she.

"Well your hairs a mess you need to fix it, and what are you wearing. are you serious." She whined. Just the thing to put her off. Cinder was wherein jeans and a t shirt can you believe it?! "your a queen now, you need to be wearing dresses and heels, oh and makeup. can I do it pleeeeaaaassseeee?" Iko knew Cinder hated makeup and her asking to do it but , she didn't care. They were best friends, and were allowed to ask questions that they knew the answer's to.

"Cause..wanted …..queen" Those were the only things decipherable from Cinder mumbling. Iko guessed that it was probably something about, how she never wanted to be queen, but that's just based on every day's muttering. Cinder looked annoyed but, she usually was around Iko these days, so she was use to it. She started getting grumpy about a month ago, after kai liked each other to much if you asked her.

"Is something wrong?" that was obviously Ikos programmed response. Cinder probably wouldn't answer her but ignore her. She didn't care, she still said it and theres nothing she could do about it.. Like Iko thought, Cinder didn't answer but, instead she walked toward her bedroom. Something was defiantly up. Iko probably shouldn't have gotten in cinder bissiness but, she really wanted cinder back. Life's been boring without her, well you know the her that would talk to Iko. She figured that it wasn't her, she was way to loveable make Cinder mad. So what wasn't?
