Crimson Love Story

Chapter Two
Thanatos' eyes widened in shock, as the foreign hand clasped her mouth even harder, threatening to cut off her air supply, before slowly releasing her. "Yo babe," a purple haired beauty, with flawless porcelain skin and huge, ameysht eyes.

"Please think before you act, Eu." Thanatos regained her aloof nature, and chided the beauty.

"But Thanatos, you seemed so...so...cold. Think a little cut off oxygen will send joy, huh?" Eu grinned impishly.

"Excuse me, but I have to see Mistress Ruby Moon. I have no time for childish acts like you!" Thanatos stomped off to Mistress Ruby Moon's chamber, leaving Eu feeling a little hurt.

In Mistress Ruby Moon's Chamber

"Look here, Thanatos. This is Kronos, one of the four ancient crones. I need you to treat her with hospitability, and please show her to her room in the Aqua Chamber?" Mistress Ruby Moon spoke, looking every bit in her grandeur as usual in a purple velvet-blue satin robe, elaborately stitched with gold thread. It was cut above her chest, with opaque black cloth as sleeves, and her maroon hair fanned out, with silver ribbons plaited within. Mistress Ruby Moon waved a jeweled hand at Thanatos, referring her to a wrinkled, erstwhile women smiling at Thanatos in a sweet, motherly kind of way. She was in a vintage black number, and her gray hair was pulled back in a tight chignon. "Go on, lead me there," she smiled at Thanatos, who did not return the warmness.

Along the Corridors

Thanatos folded her hands neatly behind her back, as her robe swept against the smooth, grayish marbled flooring. The ancient crone kept on smiling serenely, as though she knew something that concerned Thanatos that Thanatos did not know.

"Here you are, ma'am," Thanatos gave a small bow, and was going to leave when Kronos opened her wizened lips and spoke to her. "Come into my chamber, little one," Kronos grinned at her, but Thanatos gave another bow and politely said, "I am sorry, ma'am, but I have other duties." Thanatos turned away and walked off, however with a feeling of oppression that she did something wrong. The ancient crone looked at Thanatos' distancing back and smiled mysteriously, before plodding into the Aqua Chamber.

Normal

It was late into the night, and Thanatos was lying on her velveted bed. She could not sleep, kept on tossing and turning in bed. There was this...this feeling. An indescribable feeling, as though someone was chasing her, depriving from her sleep, desperate to tell her something. Thanatos soon entered the wisps of her dreams, crafted and shaped by...magic.

"Little one...go to the Aqua Chamber now..." a voice kept repeating itself, reeling it in Thanatos' mind. Slowly, but steadily, the auburn haired beauty stood up, and walked to the Aqua Chamber unconsciously. What had the Aqua Chamber lie in store for her?
