The darkness was so complete that she couldn't see her hand in front of her. Moving slowly through the night she held her hand out to feel in front of her. Than a yellow glow touched the horizon as she moved towards it a gray smoke swept around her feet. The light came from a hole in the ground lying down on her stomach she looked into the hole to see what was there. There deep below her she saw the outline of a man standing over a women yelling. Darkness and death swirled around the man, while the woman was light, and life.
"Where is the child?!" his voice was familiar yet she could not place it. "You will tell me be for you die!"
The woman simple lifted her eyes to look up beyond him. It seemed as though she connected directly with Annmarte.
"Her protection is stronger than even you." Blackness swirled around her as the scene fade from view. This time the darkness around her was suffocating as though it was trying to destroy her. Once again that terrifying voice came out of the darkness.
"You were mine before you were born. Come to me and I will spare the male." Shaking her head in disbelief she covered her ears to block out the sound. Yet it did nothing to help. His words became furious as she tried to block him out. "You do not believe me. Fine I will show you how he shall die because of your selfishness."
There before her upon the ground was Zacharias, a knife protruding from his heart. As his arms and legs were pinned to the ground, and the dawn was coming quickly over the hills. Crying out to him her voice caught was she saw the look on his face. He blamed her for what happened to her. Time ticked by slowly as his body burnt in the noonday sun. Tears poured down her cheeks as she watched unable to stop what was taking place. Soon the image faded reviling a man standing before her.
"All of this can be prevented if you just come to me." His voice held softness to it that she had never heard before. Extending his hand to her he smiled a soft smile. "Come and I will stop all of this. All you need to do is place your hand in mine."
Reaching her hand to his she paused a moment looking at him deeply. She didn't want anymore blood on her mind. No, she would put a stop to this once and for all. As her hand nearly touched his she heard another voice in her mind.
"Come back to me little one. Come away from the darkness." It was Zacarias. His command was strong enough to cause her to turn from the man. "Come out of this dream" With that she turned towards the voice and let it pull her from the dream. Behind her the man hissed with anger.
"I will have you!" his voice called to her sharply.
