Before I start the story I want everyone to read the above message to an immature reviewer. I have a policy to not erase any reviews. This may be an exception. DO NOT REVIEW WITH SWEARING IN IT. I WILL ERASE YOUR REVIEWS.
Flora looked around her eyes landed on two people. Musa and Sky. Flora looked closer and saw that they were...kissing. She started to back away but she slipped in something. It was blood. She looked for the source and found Riven. He was bleeding. She started to get up, but strong hands grasped her neck. She couldn't breathe. She was being strangled.
"If I can't have you NO ONE CAN!" A man's voice yelled.
Flora shot upright in her bed.
It was only a dream, She thought, or was it a premonition? She had broken out in a cold sweat and was shaking. She couldn't get the images out of her head.
The best thing for me to do is to go somewhere. She got out of bed and walked downstairs to get breakfast.

"Hey sleepy head." Bloom giggled as Flora walked
into the dining hall. "You sure took advantage of having no classes
today!" Flora was puzzled for a moment then checked her watch. It was
almost noon.
"Do you want to go into town today?" Flora asked. "
I heard that they put in a shop where the Cauldron and Rose used to
be."
"Sure!" Bloom replied, being her normal perky self.
"Musa left really early to go shopping. And Stella and Tecna went to
Red Fountain." Flora ate quickly. The two girls then ran to catch the
bus into town.
The bus dropped them on the ever familiar Houdini Avenue, in front of a new shop.
"Blood Lines: Fortune Telling and Palm Reading."
Flora read aloud, disappointed that this was what the Cauldron and Rose
had become. Flora looked at the front of the shop for a moment then
glanced at the wall nearby. There was a dark spot on the bricks,
about head height, no lower.
That's blood. It's my blood from when Riven and I were attacked by the witches. Flora couldn't look away from the spot. She was mesmerized by the memories that kept flooding back.
"Um, Bloom? You go ahead. I'll meet you later."
Bloom started responding, but Flora didn't hear. She was too busy
recalling old memories. Bloom walked away and Flora headed into Blood
Lines. As soon as she opened the door the strong smell of incense hit
her, making her cough. A girl with short red hair, no older than 20 was
sitting at a round table in front of a crystal ball.
"Hello! My name's Serenity! Would you like to have
your fortune told? It's five dollars per hour, but I'll give you a free
two minute reading!" the girl chattered cheerily. Flora smiled and sat
down in a chair across from the girl.
"I see..." the girl said after a minute of studying
the crystal ball, "Blood... and roses in your future, two flowers of
true love, and a lion. That means battles, love, a hard decision, and a
fight with a friend or someone close. "
"Thank you. I have to go, but I'll come back again."
Flora said as she walked out of the shop. She was so preoccupied
thinking of her fortune that she didn't notice that she took a wrong
turn. Until she saw the couple kissing in the alley. She focused her
eyes a little and she ran the other way when she recognized them.
My dream...It's coming true!
Sorry if this was not up to my usual standard. I had to add a setup chapter somewhere. Please review!
