"speak now or forever hold your peace. I see the light baptized by your eyes. In your arms I am reborn. Sweet blood kiss round my finger tips. Drink in this pain. Screaming you name. Insane." Nikhol screams in here Mic as the music blare behind her. Her room is vibrating with the very power of it. She was a rock living it up and coming down from her massive music high when she heard the door open and the music abruptly die. Her mother stood in the door way holding a tray of food and a slight smile.
" Your music is very loud. Nik" She said sitting on her only daughter's bed and let a sad smile escape her mind. It was her flaunt the she was so alone. Ever since they had run from her father they had hidden moving almost monthly until recently when he was killed. Sarah had Nikhol when was 19 and a college student. She never regretted it either. Nikhol was an odd child. Never crying and having a secret smile in her eyes. Driving a breath of sanity in her mind. Her daughter's heavy metal lullaby was different but soulful on her own. Nikhol had a way of being unreflective of the world around her. When everyone else played one game she danced in her own circle.
" Nikhol Happy Birthday" Sarah said to her now 20 year old daughter. Who looked more like a dark fairy then an adult female. She had cut her red hair short and added blond streak she often dyed green. She loved her spiked jewelry.
" thanks mom.. I um...am going to slit my wrist in the park now." Nikhol said as she walked out the door and into a very different world it looked very distorted. Trees were slanted and twisted a large brick maze lay in the foreground and she stood on a hill 20 feet away.
" Mom....I am now going to hang myself on a slightly crooked tree that somehow is now in our front yard.....Peace" Nikhol said as she walked toward a tree and hugged it." You look as special as me. I love you"
" Really my dear could you love me." Jareth said as he stepped out from behind a tree nearby. Nikhol looked at him annoyed and hugged the tree again.
" I think not. I love this tree not you. Now leave me and Ben alone" Nikhol said Jareth looked at her as she was insane. Jareth started laughing. He thought she was joking" Come to my castle my sweet hippie" Jareth said earning a glare from Nikhol. Who immediately sat down on a tree.
