Chapter 9

Kay fought and broke her chains and jumped after Miguel. Kay grabbed a hold of Miguel's shirt tail but flinched as she felt the sharp pain from her wound shoot up her spine.

She pulled Miguel tighter to her as they fell into the blue flames, "Miguel, if we don't wake it, I want you to know that I love you." The flames engulfed them and Kay's vision went black.


When she woke up Miguel's arms were wrapped around her and she was laying on the stone floor in Aubrey's dungeon, 'It was just and illusion,' she thought pulling herself up off of the cold floor.

The pain from her back crippled her and she fell back to the floor with a thud, which woke Miguel.

"Kay? Is that you?" he asked, Kay's vision was adjusted to the dark and she hadn't even noticed how pitch black it was until Miguel spoke.

"Yes, Miguel it is me," she answered, trying to position herself to ease the pain.

She didn't understand how her wound hadn't grown back, unless Aubrey had dipped the dagger he stabbed her with in gods' blood. If that was the case she would be dead in a matter of hours.
