A/N Thank you to all of my lovely reviewers...I'm so sorry I haven't updated in such a long time. I've been facing depression, along with being grounded due to my 19 year old sister...Jeez! She got home from college, then told my mom like all this stuff that I did that I wasn't supposed to be doing at the time...Like sneaking to my bf's house one night after band...So now I can't use the internet /computer...Ugh! Talk about unfair punishment...So now I'm grounded until New Year's eve. Which is why I'm sneaking on the computer right now...
emikae:yeah that sucks...im sorry about your health too...I found out in ur profile...
Fear The Walls Of Jericho: Yes i know it was fast pased, im sorry maybe the next chappie will help
Disclaimer...I don't own Darren Shan's materials...
Elle's p.o.v.
I awoke to the sound of my door opening. Still drowsy, I continued to just lie there...A guard stepped in and looked around. I guess I blended in or something. Once he spotted me, he gave a slight nod, then walked over to my "sleeping" body.
"Wake Up!!!"
I sat up and stared at him, noticing how tall, and muscular he looked. He snatched a chunk of my hair. I stared at him giving him the evil eye. He growled, then pulled. I screamed out in pain.
He smirked, then pulled harder, and began to drag me out of the room, by my hair...
Tears streaming down my face by the time we reached the hall of Kheldon Lurt...
He let go of my hair, then he pushed my head into the ground. I blacked out shortly after that. I awoke about an hour later. My head was bleeding badly. I struggled to stand up, but fell down. That was when I had noticed how much I had really bled.
I became light headed, and I went back into a coma. After the princes had their meeting, I was carried back to my cell by Gavner.
I awoke a few days later, Gavner was still present at this time. He was waiting for me to wake up. I moaned and he walked over,
"Here, drink this blood..." He said. I tried to take the vile to drink it but I fell unconscious soon after. He walked back out of my room. I woke up again about a week later.
"Gavner! Where are you?! Mum! Dad! Arra!!! Anyone! I need help, someone please help me!"
Another person walked back in, they were hooded so I couldn't see exactly who they were.
"Dad?"
"No, Elle, wake up from your little fantasy world! Your parents are dead, and you know it. So stop pulling this, oh my mum and dad died, and I'm so sickly that I can't remember..."
"Who are you? You arn't anyone I know..."
"That's what you think...Now be a good girl, and drink the blood..."
"How do I know you didn't poision it?"
"You can drink it and find out, or just die in here...Any way you don't seem to have much of an option...So just drink it..."
I did as I was told...A warming sensation came over my body, and I felt a bit better...
"Can you please tell me who you are?"
" I will as soon as I spring you out, but only for a fair price...You have sex with me, and I'll get you out..."
"No! Who are you, you sick son of a monkey...I'm engaged, and I'm fourteen...Leave me alone to die..."
"Very well, can I at least spit on your head?"
"What?"
"Your cut, your head is still not healed..."
"Oh, yes, of course...go on then"
He did so and fixed it, that picked up my head, and said...
"It is such a pity that you hate me, your rather beautiful..."
He kissed me, I broke it off, and ran out the open door. I ran to Darren's room then collapsed onto his floor.
Darren was inside, talking with that strange thing, Harkat...
"Elle!!!"
He ran to me, and picked me up,
"I'm fine...I just had to get away from someone..." Darren heard something, then quickly put me into the closet...
Just then Kurda bursted into his room.
"Elle's in here isn't she?"
"No, Kurda, I think you had one too many drinks, you better go to sleep..."
"Theres blood on your floor...her blood..."
"Oh that, I spilled my mug of blood onto to the floor and never got around to cleaning it..."
"Whatever, if you find her tell her I mean business, and I want it now..."
"Well why don't you go and tell her yourself, she's in the dungeons..."
Kurda growled, then ran for it...
"What are you doing out?" he asked me
"I don't wanna talk about it okay Darren?"
"Alright, whatever you say El, although do wish that you'd trust me enough to tell me..."
"It's nothing against you, I just want to go to sleep...
"No, Elle, don't...ah shit...never listens to me and now she's back in a coma..."
He went got a medic, who didn't bother asking questions why I was here, he just gave me blood, and told Darren to give me these tablets when I awoke...
Darren waited, and waited, and waited, then finally...ten days later I awoke...
"Take this now!"
"Alright, alright, no need to get your boxers in a twist..."
I took the tablets and stood up..."I'm off to the showers...I'm covered in dried blood, and frankly I think I stink..."
"I'm coming with you..."
"No, Darren your not...I don't want you to see me that way...when I'm naked..."
"Elle, wheather you know it or not, I'm going to see you like that sooner or later...I mean, we're going to be mating, that's the whole purpose of it..."
"I've been through more than enough, I don't need to worry about being selfcouscious right now, thank you Darren Shan..."
I stromed out through the door, Oh, wait, I think I forgot something...
I opened up his door
"What?!" he asked
"Have your godforesaken ring back, I don't want it from some stupid prat, that thinks just because I've known him on and off for a few years, that suddenly I'm his, his, his little toy! In case you don't know, I'm not yours, Don't talk to me Darren! Just go on your merry little way...And stay away from me!" I threw his ring back at him, slammed the door.
I stomped to the showers, then took off my clothes hastily, and hopped into the shower. I noticed several people eyeing me as I washed.
I'd usually just say to them "Piss Off!" (A/N he he he that was just for you Kate! Along with a good solid bloody hell...And also to anyone else who was there...)
I dried off,got changed, then went to the princes hall...
Paris almost fell off his throne in shock...
"Ms.Elle? Is that you? Kurda Schmalt told us you'd died..."
"No, sire, I'm not dead...I would like to know my sentance for my behavior, including not paying attention in the meeting with you..."
Paris put a smile on, and stepped off his throne. "Elle my dear lets go for a walk..."
"It's not your fault my guards were so rough with you...You can't help it if you go unconscious..."
"Yes I know, but sire..."
"hmm..."
"It's not that I didn't want to do the trials, I was jsut in a state of shock, that's all...I mean if you look at it logically I never technically said no to the trials..."
"I see...yes that's true..."
"Especially, when that one guy said I was only good for sex, it hurt..."
"I understand..."
"Really?"
"Yes, I do...I can do something to clear the charges, and you can proove yourself worthy..."
"Yeah?"
"You can fight...Meet me in the games room, at 9:30 at night, and be prepared for a long night..."
"Yes sire..."
"Your dismissed..."
And with a deep sigh, I went back to my room.
A/N please review, and I'd possibly update more, if you guys would review...i dunno just some ideas...
