Priams POV
That dream had continued to haunt me through out the years and I guess it always would. Wherever I went, there would be something to remind me of the dream. Even if it was just the smallest detail, it still reminded me. I didn't think that I could handle the shock anymore. My beloved daughter was not…mine? Every time I thought of the dream, terror gripped my heart. 'The walls to fall is up to her and her lover…………' I couldn't believe it, however hard I tried. How could one little girl cause a city to fall? I guess I would have to watch her very closely as the years went on. 'Beware of the one future named Coral.' If that was true, then the inhabitants of that city were in grave danger!
Hectors POV
I was playing with Coral while she was in a kind mood and then she scared the hell out of me. That thing was just so ………… unreal. I took off running as Coral yelled at me, bidding me to come back with her sugar-sweet voice – the same voice that promised destruction if you were not careful.
"Hector! Hector! Where are you going?"
I kept running, not daring to look back. As I was almost at father's quarters, the footsteps came, swift and light. This can't be happening, I'm not asleep. I even pinched myself to prove it. I knew it was her again. Her face haunted my dreams, I could even picture her sly smile in my minds eye. My body froze with fear and even though I tried hard, I could not will it to unfreeze.
"Why run Hector? What are you afraid of?" The voice resounded in my head.
'What was wrong with me? First I see things (even though I swear it was true) and now I hear voices in my head. The voice probably belonged to someone powerful. But how did they get into my head?' I could only think of one answer: a sorcerer! I could feel the presence leaving so I burst into my fathers rooms.
Priams POV
I had been daydreaming while standing on the balcony, gazing at my beautiful city and watching the inhabitants go about their daily tasks. I was thinking of all the great cities in the world, wondering which one Coral could possibly destroy. I had been in my own little world and did not hear the door open.
"Father!" I snapped out of my trance and turned to look at my son, giving him my undivided attention.
"Child! What is the matter with you? You look awfully pale." I questioned him. I was really worried; Hector truly didn't look too good.
"She…I…we…it…scared…" I listened patiently as my son stuttered out the words.
"Child! Try to make sense" I was quick to reprimand him.
Hectors eyes went wide with fear as he remembered what had scared him so badly.
"She…sh…sh…she…she did it" my son managed to get out before his eyes rolled back in his head and he fainted.
"Hector!" I was quick to jump to his side.
At that moment, Coral burst into the room. I took one look at her, hatred evident in my eyes, and shouted
"Guards!" They were quick to come in, with their swords unsheathed.
"You called milord?"
I pointed a shaky finger at my 'daughter' and in the harshest tone possible, commanded "Lock her up in the dungeon" as I helped my son to his chambers, calling for maids to assist me and to get cool rags and a lot of cold water to be put by his bedside pronto.
I looked behind me as the guards led Coral down towards the dungeon.
Please remember to review guys, I want to know what you think.
