Hey Guys! I'm happy to see your back, reading the second book. The fact that you still want to read about Alice (now Ecila) warms my heart, if you haven't read the first book I advice you to check it out for as you will have missed lots! Hope you enjoy :P

Chapter 1: Red Sun

I'm not the little girl called Alice anymore.

I'm not the little sister of the great Valkyrie Cain anymore.

I'm not the weak little frightened girl who was forced into this world anymore.

I am my own.

People now scream my name in terror, hoping I won't go to their door.

A year ago people would just look at me and think I wouldn't hurt a fly.

Instead I have destroyed towns,

Instead I have murdered thousands,

Instead I have ripped apart the light that bloomed inside me.

That night when the silver dagger got thrust into my heart.

It killed Alice, the weak girl I used to be.

Now I am Ecila Siuloiri, feared by millions.

No one saw this coming...

No one but the creature that stands by my side,

Who took me into this world of magic.

The legend was right, they always are.

A Siuloiri will always be feared, as they will destroy the world.

My lips pulled back into a sneer, they will destroy the world.

I could not do it alone. I needed another with as much power as myself.

The fact that someone could have as much power as me was laughable.

I could feel the power swirling through my veins,

Getting stronger every second that passed by.

My ' friends' try to stop her, it's ridiculous.

Seth joined them the day I died and my true spirit was born.

She watched the last flicker of flame die down, turning the city Dublin to dust, some people escaped but they will keep on running, fear of getting caught.A ghost of a smile tugged on her pale lips,she slinked over towards the man with a scar on his face, putting her lips to his ear,

"Tell our 'friends' we are coming over." the man nodded, vanishing though the thick mist. She looked down towards a puddle, her hair hasn't grown back, she was still bald from the acid which scorched it off. Her eyes were sharp blue filled with hatred. The smallest smile grew on her pale lips, her blue eyes had an hint of insanity. A laugh escaped her lips. She heard a squeak from under some rubble. She crawled over, a snarl etched onto her face. Ecila voice was strong and terrifying when she spoke,

"Come out." The rubber shook a little though no one came out, they were disobeying her. Ecila narrowed her eyes, she would not allow that. Ecila walked towards the rubble, getting closer,

"I said come out!" she shrieked, her eyes filled with insanity. She reached inside of the rubble and grabbed whoever was inside. She picked up a little girl, looking under five years old. Ecila put her down on the floor, tears ran down the little girls face, her shoulders shaking. Her hair was burnt and dress was torn, Ecila walked around her, like looking at a caged animal. Ecila hissed the words out towards the girl,

"Who are you!" The little girl quivered, her voice squeaking with every sob,

"My name I-is, Al-Alice. Alice Barren." Ecila knelt down in front of the girl Alice. She was weak, afraid,lost everything she had. Ecila spat at the girl, disgusted. It reminded Ecila of her past, no one spoke of her past. The girl looked up into Ecila's eyes, whispering pleads

"Please do-don't hurt me." Ecila grabbed the girls hand, palm faced upwards. She took out her silver dagger, the girl screamed but did not move away. Ecila slashed the palm open, watching white mist swirl out of her palm. Ecila took the mist (even though it was gas) and inhaled, drinking in the power. Ecila felt her cheeks flush with blood, her eyes with a gleam in them, her lips turning red. The girl turned pale, collapsing onto the floor. She gasped for breath, fear in her eyes,

"What was that?" she choked, unable to move. Ecila inhaled the last of the white mist and the girl froze, the fear still etched into her eyes. Ecila stood up,

"That was your soul." She spat on the body, then walked away from the burning town, letting the body rot.

This was my life now,

This is what I have become,

No one tries to fight against me,

If they do they fall,

I hear mothers cry over their dead children,

Sobbing for them to come back,

I will not let that happen,

Childrens souls were the best power I can get,

You may think I am insane,

If you do well you're right,

I lost everything the morning I got taken away,

I also gained everything the morning I got taken away,

I lost everything the night I got killed,

But I also gained everything.

Love. Friendship. Thats what everyone says you need,

I have fallen in love. I have had best friends,

But love can shatter, friendships could shatter.

I have power, power that makes me unstoppable.

Now I am searching for the one,

The one who will aid me in destroying the world.

Ecila set off in the direction of the red sun, leaping into the air. She flew up her arms spread wide, wind rushing into her face. The sensation of flying felt unbelievable, she closed her eyes, listening to the sounds of mother nature being killed. Listening to the sounds that she made, she killed mother nature. An echo of a smile etched onto her lips, that was something to tell the grandchildren.
