In another place, Raina slowly stirs. Her face distorts, stretching and contracting, like sunlight in wavy water. Her eyes open, and they are back to their color of sea foam. She slowly stands up, wary of her surroundings. It seems to be inside of something, because the walls are black, yet she can see just fine.

Raina: Hello?

As Raina's eyes adjust to this new environment, she sees movement. She spins around but nobody is there. Then she hears a hissing voice in her ear.

Kaida: So you finally awoke, then?

Raina spins around again, but the thing just disappears again. Raina lowers her head and growls at the entity.

Raina: So you're the one who took over my mind?

Kaida: (mocking from the shadows) Oh, so clever! She figures it out when her mind is still groggy from sleep? Wonderful!

Raina: Don't make me laugh. Give me my body back immediately.

Kaida: (appearing at her shoulder in a dragon-like form) I'm sorry, but that's not possible right now.

Raina: (spinning around again, getting frustrated) Why not!

Kaida: Because our souls are intertwined, we cannot be separated.

Raina: Well, you better untangle yourself, because I'm not going to tolerate you!

Kaida: But by making no moves to get rid of me when you were in control guaranteed that I would stay in control when I took power. Which, by the way, (a blue mist curls around Raina, tilting her head towards the voice) I must thank you for that.

Raina: (growling, standing completely still) Show yourself already! Coward...

Kaida: (from the fog) Oh, dear, now that not very nice. But, if you really want it...

Kaida forms into a dragon form, a long, snake-like creature with blue scaly wings and fierce teeth.

Raina: Who are you? Why are you... taking over me?

Kaida: I have explained this to your friends already. I was placed here by your brother years ago.

Raina: Judas... his game... The pain afterwards...

Kaida: Yes. And his name fit his purpose so well. Judas, the traitor to his own flesh and blood.

Raina: But... What will happen to me now?

Kaida: You can't regain control. I've seen to that. And also, I'm slowly absorbing your soul. You won't exist for much longer. But I promise, it will be fast.

Raina: And there's no way for me to regain control.

Kaida: None at all. I am superior, and I'm able to do so much more without you siphoning off my power. Now, to make sure you don't pull anything and somehow regain control...

Kaida wraps herself around Raina, who tries to jump away, but finds herself suddenly too tired.

Kaida: (before Raina blacks out) Sweet dreams.
