Karna woke up head pounding. She started hearing a voice. A different voice. From inside of her. The boy's voice.
"You shall be a great host" He hissed.
"What? What do you mean" Karna whispered. Her head was still pounding. And the squeezing pain that she just remembered.
"I have complete control over you. You are my host. You see I am a minsteal, a demon that uses a host and controls them. I know your past, present and thoughts. I can control you will answer to every command"
"No I won't!" Karna stubbornly cried.
"Yes, you silly girl, you will. That baby inside of your guardian, is touched by the gods. By Mithros to be specific. Her name was going to be Justice. She is needed by the gods to right something that will happen in the future. I have seen it. Felt it. And if I am going to rule this entire realm, I need to kill her."
"What? No you are not going to kill my future baby sister, you, you foul little pig!" She cried, pulling at her hair, trying to pull him out of her skull.
"Yes I am. And I am going to use you to kill her!"
"Try all you want! I'm not scared! I'm going to struggle and fight" she scrunched her face into a scowl of determination. She was going to fight this. If her future sister was so important, she was willing to fight for her. For Daine and Numair. For Tortall.
"You have made your choice," he hissed. "Be prepared to surrender" ******
"Oh Gods, where is she!" Daine was starting to worry. The supper bell had wrung 20 minutes ago. Karna was always right on time. No matter what. So of course Daine was worrying.
"Numair you have to out and find her! She could be." Daine didn't finish her sentence. All of a sudden, Karna came walking in. A huge scowl across her face.
"Gods where have you been! We've been worrying our heads off! Don't ever do that again!" Daine started ramble.
"Daine! You got to. " Karna had to tell Daine and Numair right now or else. Then his voice popped into her head. "You tell them and I will kill you too. Tell them and I will kill your entire family as well as your friends and role models. That I know includes their Majesties and their children. And, in fact, all of Tortall. You tell." He warned her. Karna didn't care if he blew her up, but she needed to stay quiet for the country's sake.
"Yes Karna," Daine said, giving her a go on how well can you cover this one up look.
"Daine You got to relax. I am here and in one piece" Karna said, trying her best to sound honest and she realized it wasn't her speaking, it was his.
As she said that, Daine noticed something odd. Karna's voice sounded deep and dry. Her eyes flamed red. But Daine thought she was probably just exhausted from running home because she was late. How wrong she was.
This though, happened more frequently. Karna was always pulling at her hair. Her voice changed and her eyes were starting to turn red very day. Numair just thought it was a perk with her magic. Daine also started to grow larger meaning the baby was growing. He (the demon) was getting stronger, and Karna was losing this battle. She started losing control over her limbs, then her senses. He started taking over her mind. One day six months later, Karna gave up her fight. She couldn't fight him anymore. She hardly existed in her body, but one thing she hadn't lost control of was her magic. Now she was fighting with it. But a week later, she lost that too. He was strong enough now. To kill. She was over the edge.
A/N: Yes I know this chapter wasn't very good and frankly, I didn't like writing it. But it's vital to the next chapter and to other future events. Don't forget to review and to give me feedback. I am very hungry for feedback!!!! Thanks!
