The morning light shone through the window, its brightness waking the occupant in the bed below. The young woman trying to evade the light that beckoning her to wake and get up, pulling the covers over her blonde head she succumbed to the cocooned warmth of her bed.
That was until the covers were ripped harshly from her now cold body, sitting bolt up right, blonde hair tussled from her nights sleep, she looked for the perpetrator that had stolen her warmth. Spotting her room mate and the end of her bed with her covers in her hands, she sighed at the dark haired women and got up from her bed.
"Now Thelma you know you could of thought of a different way to get me up" The blonde sighed while walking to the end of the room to pick up a white dressing robe.
"Believe me Cassie there was a different way far more enjoyable" she murmured.
Cassie finished tying her belt and turned round.
"What was that Thelma?"
"Nothing Cassie, we should get ready soon don't want to miss breakfast"
Cassie picked a brush of the dresser and ran it through her blonde hair, looking at Thelma through the mirror she gave her a smile.
"No we wouldn't want to miss that, I know how much you love your food Thelma"
Cassie hid her smile behind her hand and turned round to face Thelma as she had started to get ready.
"Funny Cassie now hurry up, otherwise it wont be just breakfast we miss and unlike me you don't like missing classes" Thelma winked as she finished putting on her long skirt.
"fine you won this time Thelma" Cassie got up off the seat and turned to get her clothes, when she spotted the blue vase-like shape that was on her table, remembering how she found it yesterday in the outside building where she smoked.
A sudden chill wracked through her body and flashes of images she had no idea of where they were from went through her mind, her gaze was firmly locked on the object not able to tear her eyes away.
A hand waved in front of her face, snapped her out of her trance, she blinked and looked at Thelma standing beside her, with a worried look on her face.
"Hey Cass are you alright" Thelma asked brushing some hair away from Cassie's face.
Cassie smiled at Thelma and walked over to her dresser
"Yeah Thelma I'm alright, you go down and get a seat I'll be down in a minute"
Thelma looked at Cassie concern shinning in her eyes.
"Ok then Cassie I'll see you down there"
Cassie watched though the mirror as Thelma gave her one last look and shut the door of the room behind her.
Letting out a tired sigh Cassie began to get dressed, thinking of recent events, the dream she had last night was the most troubling.
She remembered a young woman, flashes of blood and death, a dark man bathed in shadows and tattoo on his neck and a name AZAZEAL. Even though she couldn't comprehend what these flashes and that dream meant she felt that they were some how important. Shaking it off Cassie finished getting dressed and walked out of the room to meet with Thelma and eat breakfast.
"I hope Thelma doesn't eat all of it" Cassie thought as she walked through the corridors.
As she was walking she felt the same chill as this morning when she looked at the vase, whispers we coming from the next corner as Cassie turned she found no-one was there.
"I must be going crazy" she whispered.
Coming out into the main stair well Cassie walked down the steps wariness seeping into her, she looked around the entrance. 'Nothing out of the ordinary' she thought, 'but why I am getting this negative feeling then'. Taking one last look around Cassie went into the dining area looking for the sign of her best friend.
Spotting Thelma at a nearby table with a half eaten plate of food in front of her, Cassie sat down next to her.
"Didn't take you long to start eating, did it Thelma" Cassie asked while stealing some food off her plate.
"Hey that's mine" Thelma snatched the sausage Cassie had taken and took a bite off it.
"If you hadn't taken so long I wouldn't need to" Thelma waved the sausage in front of Cassie.
"Yes Thelma I know" Cassie sighed resting her head on her hands.
Thelma looked at Cassie worriedly "You sure your alright Cassie, I know you didn't sleep well last night".
"No, I'm alright Thelma, it was a just nightmare that stopped me from sleeping too well last night" Cassie lifted her head and gave Thelma a reassuring smile.
"If your sure Cassie…"
"Well I'm finished here" Thelma said putting down her knife and fork a satisfied smile on her face.
"You want anything Cassie, or do you want to go straight to class?" Thelma said while getting up and putting her tray on the rack.
"No I'm fine, lets just go to class" Cassie said standing up and walking over to the doors, stopping to wait for Thelma and the entrance.
"Ok then, it will start in a few minutes anyway"
Both Cassie and Thelma started walking down the halls, getting closer to their class.
"Cassie…" a breathy voice spoke
"Yes Thelma" Cassie turned to her friend to see what see wanted.
Thelma stopped and looked at Cassie "Cassie, I didn't say anything"
"Oh, sorry I thought you said something" Cassie said as she starting to walk again down the hall.
"Cassie…" the breathy voice spoke again.
Cassie stopped abruptly and looked around her to find the owner of the voice, nothing but her and Thelma were there. The paintings looked back at Cassie seemingly alive their eyes following her movements.
"Cassie you sure your alright" Thelma asked turning round to face Cassie concern in her features.
"Yes I'm sure Thelma, I'm just still tired from last night"
"Maybe I shouldn't go to class, I wouldn't be able to listen anyway I'm so tired" Cassie said feigning a yawn.
"Ok Cassie you go back to bed and I'll take some notes for you, it's unlike you not wanting to go to class"
"Thanks Thelma I'll see you later then" Cassie turned round and started to go back the way she had come.
"Yeah later Cassie" Thelma watched Cassie go and then started to her class room.
Cassie walked back through the corridors she had gone with Thelma, but this time they seemed different. They all looked the same yes, the same paintings and walls that had been their since she first came to the school. But now a strange presence followed in her wake, it chilled her body the tiny hairs on the back of her neck stood up. She looked round trying to figure out if someone was watching her, but that couldn't be it, everyone was in class now and no-one would risk wandering the halls if they got caught.
Finding herself back in the main entrance hall, Cassie walked though the main doors and outside, 'maybe if I get some air I'll be able to shake off this feeling' she thought. Walking across the gravel driveway Cassie walked towards the grassed area, wanting to stop at the bottom end where the large lake was. Finally getting to the bottom on the grass Cassie sat on the edge looking out on to the lakes mirrored surface
"What's wrong with me" she asked her reflection, seeing if the reflection would give her some answers.
Her reflection change and instead a young girls body lay in the water, hair missing from her head, bloody patches on her white dress and closed eyes that suddenly flashed open and stared at Cassie's face.
"Cassie…" the girl whispered,
Cassie jumped back from the edge of the lake, her heart beating fast and her breath coming in short gasps, she looked back at the lake to find that the girl had gone and only her reflection remained.
"What the…" Cassie started as her gazed remained in the lake's surface.
Another image flashed this time of a man with dark hair but as soon as it appeared it had disappeared as well. Cassie looked up from the lake and across the lake where the same man that was in the lake was standing there looking at her.
"Cassie…"
She heard as she still stared at the man in black clothing across the lake, something about this man frightened her but at the same intrigued her.
"Cassie…"
Her vision started to black out, her last thought before she completely back out was who is that man.
The man looked out from across the lake a smirk that seemed ever present on his face was there, he had seen her again and it seemed that he was affecting her. The way she had seen those images and blacked out then was all the effect of him being there that had caused it.
"Cassie…"
"Your mine…"
He whispered as he left her prone form next to the lake and went off to make plans for the next meeting he would get properly acquainted with her. And still a smirk on his face and a smile in his eyes. 'I will have her if it's the last thing I do' was his last thought as he left his witch behind him where later on she will awake with dreams of him.
