Nyx and Mira followed Nuada into a sort of underground palace, "Wow," Nyx whispered, "This place is huge!" Mira nodded in agreement.
"I will show you to your rooms," Nuada said guiding them through the hallways to two rooms opposite one another. "You two can stay in these rooms, I will send someone to inform you of dinner." He bade them goodnight but not before taking Nyx's hand and placing a gentle kiss on her knuckle, "Goodnight...Lady Nyx." With that he left with Nyx just staring at him in shock.
"Did he just...?"
"Oh yeah, he did," Mira said, "I think he likes you."
"What?! No he doesn't, he can't, we haven't known each other long enough for him to like me!"
"I beg to differ," the girls walked into what would be Mira's room , "The Prince didn't kiss the back of my hand, and lock eyes with me, and talk to me in that low seductive whisper of his, did he?"
"I don't believe you." She stated, "I'll see you in the morning, goodnight." She got up and headed into her own room. 'No way in hell does Nuada like me like that...'
'Oh he does too and you know it!' her inner voice said.
'You again,' she sighed, 'You know arguing with myself is getting real old, real fast, can't you just leave me alone? '
'Um...not gonna happen!' the voice chuckled causing Nyx to growl in frustration.
'One of these days I'm going to shoot you know?'
'And blow your brains out in the process?'
'If it'll get you to shut up, then hell yeah!'
'You're so rude to me!' her inner voice (IV) complained.
'Maybe if you didn't annoy the crap outta me, I wouldn't be so mean!''
'...' She waited for a response and didn't get one, she smiled knowing that her IV was going to remain quiet for now. Lying down on the bed she closed her eyes and sighed, she should try to get some sleep.

Unfortunately her mind was not co-operating with her, and left her tossing and turning for most of the night. With a groan she got up and occupied herself for a few minutes by looking around her room. Looking in the cupboard it looked as though someone had put in a vast array of clothes made for just her. She smiled slightly before shutting the door to the cupboard and walking to the door of her room. She was bored, and a bored Nyx was a dangerous Nyx. Opening the door she was stunned when she came face to face with Princess Nuala. "Princess Nuala!" Nyx said as she stared in shock at Nuala's twin, "Can I help you with something?"
"I felt your restlessness," Nuala replied softly, "I thought I could be of some assistance."
"I see, and how can you help exactly?"
"You like to read, do you not?"
"How'd you-"
"It matters not how I know you, jus that I do. If you wish I will show you to the library."
Nyx nodded, "Okay," she picked up her sword and placed it in the scabbard that had also been designed for her and followed the Princess to the library.

When they got there Nyx gasped at the vastness of it, "This library houses every book that ever existed in Bethmora, Natradee and Parlesda the three great magical lands. I'm sure you'll find something to occupy your time with." Nuala said before looking out towards the door, she could feel her brother calling to her, "I trust you can find your way back to your room from here, I must go meet my brother."
Nyx nodded, "Yeah, I'll just pick up a book and take it back to my room..." she watched as Nuala walked out of the room and turned her attention back to the books on the walls. Running her fingers over numerous spines of books before stopping at one entitled, 'Fey: The History, The Myth, The Power' picking it up she headed back to her room and settled into her bed for a long night of reading.

That night she discovered many things about the Fey, her people... for one each Fey would have a main power over two elements, she assumed one was electricity but she would have to figure out what the other one was. Most Fey could see or have some ability to affect the future, 'Well I suppose that's good for Mira and I, I mean The Prince is still alive and this story may follow Hellboy, I guess we could stop some things from happening. But I wonder how that power works...' Reading through the book she came across a familiar picture, it was the Royal Seal that the nymph had talked about. Flipping through the pages, she found the information on the Royal family and it's army. She found that the Royal family was part of a court, along with the royalty of all other magical comunities, a sort of Brethren Court, during times of war the Court would come together and decide on what was to happen. At the last two gatherings the Fey King and Queen were not present. Reading on she found that the army of the Fey was trained to work quickly and efficiently. While most Fey lacked body strength they had speed and skill. Obviously most assaults they would take part in were airiel assaults but when the Fey attacked from the ground they had a reputation to be devastingly violent and cruel. She noticed that even those Fey who were skilled enough to recieve the Royal Seal did not recieve a weapon like hers. Flicking through the book further she found a picture of a sword like hers, it described how when the hilt was twisted to the left a curved blade would come out of it and the first blade would curve. Nyx reached out to get her sword to test it out and before she touched it, it flew into her hand. "I guess my other element is metal." she whispered to herself. That was when she realised who exactly it was that carried that type of blade. It wasn't the Royal Army, it was royalty, 'But that would mean I'm royalty...? Or did I take it off a member of ther royal family?' she asked herself. 'What if I'm a fugitive?' Putting down her weapon she turned the page in the book and stopped short, there in full colour was a picture of her, and Mira and some people who appeared to be related to them. Underneath the picture were the words, 'King Daiyre, Queen Raya, Prince Deera, Princess Almira, Their cousin Lady Nyx and General Fawx.'

"Oh. My. God."

She ran to Mira's room and burst in, Mira was sleeping soundly and Nyx rolled her eyes, she shook her awake "Mira! Mira get your ass up now!"
"What d'you want?" she grumbled, getting up slowly.
"Mira we have a bit of a problem," Nyx showed her the book, "look."
Mira rubbed her eyes and held the book in her other hand, "Hey that kinda looks like us...wait a minute. Oh. My. God."
"Now you're getting it."
"But that's- we can't- I don't- huh?" Mira finally managed to get out.
"It appears in this world we've been around for quite some time," she showed Mira, their apparent dates of birth.
"But this makes us nearly...300 years old!" Mira exclaimed frantically, "I'm only eighteen! This is not right!"
"Would you keep your voice down! What happens if someone hears you huh! What are you going to say to them then?!"
"You're right I'm sorry, but I can't help freaking out about this! Why aren't you freaking out?!"
"Because one of us had to remain level headed about this. If I was freaking out then we wouldn't be able o do anything! Now according to the dates in the book you're 306 years old and I'm..." she looked in the book and her eyes widened dramatically, "200 years older than you...? I'm only nineteen! How the hell am I 506 years old! Oh this is bad... this is really bad..." she put the book on the bed and rubbed her hands over her face, "What are we supposed to do?"
"Um the book says we ran away..." Mira said picking it up and reading through it, "It says I was meant to be married years ago. I was meant to marry that dude in the picture, um...General Fawx, then we ran away. The book says that it is thought that I didn't want to marry the General and you being the loving cousin you are took me into hiding..."
"You know we have a big problem. I mean, if we've been around for years, why don't we have any memories of this place?" Nyx asked.
"I don't know, but I've been getting this feeling like I know about what's going on here, you know like I just have to think hard enough and it will come to me."
"Well I can't say I'm having that feeling, but hey maybe you get premonitions or something."
For the next couple of hours the girls discussed what was going on with them, after that Nyx decided to head back to her room to get some much needed rest

It had been a few days since Nyx and Mira had landed in the supposed fantasy world, and unsurprisingly Nuada had been rather absent from them, Nyx figured if this world was the same as the one she'd seen at the movies, then he would be off securing his tooth faeries and the location of the piece of the crown of Bethmora that some rich human probably had. She sighed at the thought, if it wasn't obvious enough she did have a slight crush on the Prince. 'Slight !' the voice in her head snorted.
'Oh shut up!' she growled back as she headed to the library, 'Technically speaking, you're me so you have the crush on him too!'
'...'
Nyx smiled to herself at it's silence, "Is something funny?" a voice asked from her side causing her to jump nearly a foot in the air.
Turning towards the voice she put her hand over her heart, "Prince Nuada, you startled me."
"My apologies My Lady, I saw you walking and thought I might join you, I dare say I haven't been a proper host but unfortunately I have had urgent business to attend to."
"Oh no Prince honestly, I didn't really expect you to drop everything that you obviously have planned just to be a good host," she replied.
"What makes you think I have anything planned?" he inquired.
"You went into self exile over a thousand years ago swearing you wouldn't come back until your people said they needed you, and here you are, I doubt that you came back just for fun."
"You have a point..." Nuada conceded as they reached the library. He held the door open for her and they walked in. "And what of you My Lady?" he asked carefully.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, Lady Nyx, you and your cousin Princess Almira, must have come out of hiding for a reason."
Nyx paled, "Pr-Princess! I-I don't know what you're talking about..."
Nuada placed his hand on the small of her back "Come now My Lady, did you really expect me to not know who you two were, admittedly at first I did not recognise you. But after some careful thought I did... so why are you back?"
'Shit what the hell am I supposed to say now?!' she swallowed nervously and looked up at him, "Truthfully, I really don't know. It was like we felt some sort of a pull to come back, like someone wanted us here..."
'Oh yeah, great going, be mysterious, it's not like that won't satisfy him!' her inner voice crowed at her.
"Really?" Nuada quirked an eyebrow.
"Uh-huh," at this particular moment in time she was looking anywhere but him.
She headed towards a book shelf and reached up to retrieve a book on the Unseen lands she had noticed the night before. Unfortunately for her she was cursed with the fact that she was short, too short to reach the book that she wanted. Not to mention that her wing had yet to be completely healed so she couldn't just boost herself up a couple of inches. Seeing this Nuada came up behind her, placing one hand on her hip he used the other to pull the book off the shelf, bringing himself much closer to her.

Nyx's eyes widened whn she felt the Prince behind her, and they only got wider when she felt his hand rest on one hip while the other pulled out the book she wanted. The hand on her hip moved across her stomach lightly and pulled her closer to his body. She let out a nearly silent squeak when her back collided with his chest causing Nuada to smirk, turning her around he brought the book down in front her. "I believe that this is what you were looking for," he spoke softly and stared into her eyes.
Nyx was mesmerised, snapping out of it; she reached for the book, "It was."
He put the book down on the table next to them and grabbed her hand causing to snap her eyes to his again, "I do hope that you are enjoying your time here..." She swallowed nervously, the Prince was in front of her, the Prince was holding her hand, the Prince was pressed up against her and she found that her voice was dying in her throat. He leant forward slowly, giving her plenty of time to pull away from him, but at the same time not, with the grip he had on her hand and waist she couldn't really do much, not to mention that his eyes were hypnotising, "If there is anything you need, anything at all..." his lips were mere millimetres away from hers and she had parted hers slightly in preparation, "Please...don't hesitate to ask..." and just as he was about to cover her lips with his the door to the Library flew open and Almira burst in causing the pair to spring apart.
Nuada smoothed out his tunic and gave Nyx and smirk, "I am afraid, My Lady, that I must attend to some important affairs, I will see you both at Dinner."
Nyx looked at the Prince in shock, 'Was he really about to kiss me?' she thought to herself.
