Yeah the 'prologue' was extremely short. But you know the saying Quality not Quantity! =3

Ill make this chapter longer. Remember Criticism and Reviews are much appreciated. YOSH!

I do not own anything from the Forbidden Games Trilogy. It all rightfully belongs to L J Smith

"All I refuse & Thee I choose."

The promise that was broken. The trickery and evil that made her make such a promise was gone. A month had pasted since Julian's death. But the last moments of his life were still fresh in her mind. Nothing could ever make her forget but no one would believe it ever happened. Only a small group of teenagers who had there lives changed would be there for her.

The night they came back from Monessen there was no time for mourning or anything else. What were waiting for them were six pairs of worried and angry parents. Even the police tagged along. Ever since Summer's disappearance the police never passed a chance to interrogate the suspicious gang.

Luckily when every one saw Summer all further questions were pushed aside and everyone ran to Summer. Her parents were phoned immediately and people just celebrated her return. Their luck could only last so long. All Jenny wanted to do was crawl into bed for an eternity but that wasn't going to happen any time soon. The police pounced on them like predators. The only response Jenny had was that she had a feeling Summer was alive somewhere and went to get her. There were no other witnesses so the police had no other choice but to believe her.

A month. Surprising how a month can go so quickly during chaos. Jenny was sitting in the corner of her bedroom with her head on her knees. Things finally quieted down and everyone was just happy that Summer was back. Jenny however still had Julian's death playing through her mind. The Shadow men wanted her but Julian took her place.

The light from the unimaginable blue eyes draining out. The body disintegrating into nothing. Nothing was left. That was all that went through her mind. Jenny was strong enough to put up a brave face. The Games had changed her, made her stronger. But during the night when no one but the shadows was there Jenny just sat there thinking.

Nothing truly dies if it's not forgotten. Jenny would never forget. Neither would her friends. Jenny didn't know what she felt for Julian. She knew he loved her but he was evil. He done whatever he could to get her, but she always won. Before the other Shadow men came, Julian let them go. He said he was tired and he looked it. Maybe if she had just left then, he would be alive. Alive but never happy.

She promised him that she would dream him somewhere filled with light, but she couldn't. Every night was empty. No dream. Maybe it was exhaustion; with him gone she could finally sleep peacefully.

All that Jenny knew was that some thing was there between her and Julian. Something that was now gone and needed to be forgotten. After all she had Tom.

Pain ran through his body. His body hurt, everywhere. What had happened to him he couldn't remember but he knew he was back. But why?

Was this Jenny's doing he didn't know but he couldn't think right now. He was in pain and it wasn't going to end any time soon. When he was finally used to it, he opened his eyes. No wander he was hurting.

Julian opened his eyes only to find himself chained up. Not by any normal chains because shadow men are more than just strong.

These chains were made from shadows and lightning. Shadows and lighting from Niflheim, the shadow world.

A small growl left his lips. Who would dare chain him up?

His question was answered when the oldest of the shadow man approached him. Using the frosted blade as a walking stick. The only weapon which could end the life of a shadow man.

"I see you've finally woken up child"

A voice filled with darkness. He may be old but this shadow man had power, too much power.

"Why did you bring me back?"

Julian growled in a voice filled with hatred, no respect what so ever used. Julian did despise his elders who were so much more evil than him, in the shadow world he was the 'good' guy.

"Now, now you should know by now that youngsters should bow down to the elders who brought life to them."

Julian stayed silent, he knew too well to stay away from his elders and never make them angry.

"I would have thought you would be happy to be brought back, now you can see Jenny again"

Julian winced at the name of Jenny. He remembered what he had done to save her. Risked his life and died for her. He was relieved that she had escaped and slightly happy that he had escaped the life of a shadow man. Jenny had said that she would dream him up somewhere nice filled with light. But he remembered nothing of that, no light, nothing.

"We have a problem Julian ... your Jenny has become a slight threat to us."

Julian couldn't help but snicker at the withered foetus. No human could be a threat to shadow men, they were much stronger and superior than any human could imagine. To think the most evil shadow man that ever existed was threatened by a mere human girl. That was definitely something to laugh about.

"I don't know why you're laughing 'lover boy'. We have to get rid of her."

Julian fell silent a second time. He had died to protect Jenny, hoping that things would move on and Jenny could go back to a some what 'normal' life. How could he be so stupid? Of course this couldn't be forgotten. Jenny would never be left alone by the shadows. She had done something unforgivable. She had taken the prey of others. Had set them free. She was wanted by Shadow men.

I'm sorry, another kinda short chapter? I'm new to this fanfiction writing stuff. And I'm not a big fan of writing . But i do have an idea for a fanfiction which I'm itching to get down on paper. So review enjoy and what not. Ill try and make the next chapter longer. Criticism and reviews much appreciated.
