Hiya! I'm back again. So, how did you guys like the info on my creations? Well except ancient winglies! That was ice-water angel idea. Well anyway this is the 6th chapter of Desperate Magic, will Shantei find out who this person is, or should I say stalker is? And will Aya find a weapon that smaller then her, not bigger? Find out in this chapter.

Chapter 6: The Ghost of the Past.

It was late at night, and the whole castle was asleep, except the Knights on guard. Aya tossed in her sleep, she was dreaming or should I say having a nightmare.

: DREAM:

Aya stood in a forest clearing, surrounded by trees. The forest where she was from was right in front of her. The gates were open and the guards were nowhere to be seen.

"Hmm? That's funny, there's nobody here," she thought. Aya walked a few feet toward her home, but stopped when a golden blast hit the ground right in front of her.

She was thrown back, "Ahh!" Aya got up, it didn't seem to powerful but it hurt a lot.

A figure floated in front of her, and it began to speak. "Why have you come back rebel? You are not welcomed here! LEAVE NOW!" he yelled.

Aya stared at the man wide eyed, "Dad? Why can't I come back? I'm your only daughter! You still love me right?"

He stared down at her no emotion showing in his eyes.

"Dad? You do love me, right?" she asked tears welling up in her eyes.

"You are not my daughter, I don't have one. You are a traitor, a rebel, and a fallen mystic! LEAVE NOW!" he yelled again.

Aya started running, only to have the voice of her father echo in head. She couldn't bear it, being away from the ones who did love her, and being a piece of memory trash to her kind. Why did they do this? Why?

A shade of darkness floated over the blue sky and surrounded her, Aya stopped in mid tracks. "Why are you doing this to me! Leave me alone!" she cried out as the darkness overcame her.

She curled up into a little ball, her golden hair and emerald eyes emanating the only light she had.

Have faith.

Aya lifted her head slightly to the voice. It was of a man, but not her father's voice, which haunted her mind. "Who are you?" she timidly asked.

Have courage.

Now she was confused, why was he talking to her this way?

Believe in your strengths and power, over come this darkness that clouds your mind, release you troubles.

A bright light shone from her necklace to a colour of radiant blue. She held out the pendant into the darkness and it filled it with light. Aya stared in awe as she put the pendant back to her shirt, and looked around the place.

"Wow. My god, it so lovely," she said as she looked at the form the space was taking.

WAKE UP!

"WHA!!!" she screamed as she fell out of bed.

"Hahaha! Scared ya didn't I?" Shantei laughed from the other side of the bed.

Aya lifted herself from the floor, not yelling back, but thinking. "What was that dream about?" she thought aloud.

"DREAM! You had one too?" Shantei asked jumping onto the bed.

She stood up. "Yeah, I was running. from something," Aya said as she stared outside.

"What a coincidence! I was kinda running too. well I was trying to, but I was held in place by some unmovable power. Hey did you have a man show up in yours?" asked Shantei as she sat down of Aya's bed.

"No, I only had a male voice speak to me. He told me to use the light, or something. Here, this is what he was talking about," Aya held out her pendant to Shantei.

Shantei stared in awe, "Where did you get that? I know for one thing you didn't have it when I met you!" she said.

"I got it from the dream. the man gave it to me." She walked to the window and looked down around the town.

"Trespasser! Grab him! Hurry!" the knights yelled out below.

Shantei ran to the window as Aya looked further over the edge. "What's happening? Aya?" she asked her friend.

Aya took a step back," look out he's coming up here!" Aya pushed Shantei back by the bed, and took hold of her Halberd.

The figure zoomed up the castle walls, and into Shantei and Aya's room. Robes covered his body and face and you could only see his eyes. He looked at the two girls who had their weapons out already, his sparkling olive eyes looked directly at Shantei curiously.

Shantei pointed one of her daggers at the man. "Who are you? What do you want!" she yelled at him.

He stared at them. "I'm the one from your dreams." he said sending chills down their spines.

"What! Really? So why don't you take off the dumb robes and show us who you are!" Aya screamed at him, raising her Halberd close to his neck.

"Alright, but you must not let the Knights catch me," he told them.

Shantei lowered her weapon, " go Mr. Dream man, show us who you are!"

He began to take of the face part of the robe slowly. His olive eyes closing as he did so. He took of the hood, and with suppressed gasps Aya and Shantei stared shocked.

So! A cliffhanger huh! WAHAHH. ahem, anyway I hoped you liked that chapter and the others. Guess who you think the stalker is. Good luck and Have fun!

Oh! And no little comic today.hehe I did this at school, and didn't have much time.
