Rain Angel Song- ………………………………no comment
Calcifer open his eyes when he heard the click of the door as Howl walked lazily inside, as Calcifer watched eagerly he sat down across from the fire demon.
"I suppose you want to know what happened" Howl said wearily. The two had a bond no one could understand, it was as if they could read each other's thoughts.
"No I'll just sit here and kill myself with curiosity" Calcifer mumbled sarcastically.
"She just gave me a warning" Howl began.
"About" Calcifer tried to get him to continue.
Howl set his chin against his hand and glanced at Calcifer "Krye" he stated.
Flashback……..set some time in Howl's apprenticeship"Just calm down Krye" a younger Howl said trying to calm down another boy.
"No it's not fair why are you so special I was here FIRST!" the boy yelled sending a glass bottle across the room.
"Now Krye-" Howl started but stopped as Krye grabbed him by the collar.
"Right now you may be protected by the madam but I swear I will have my revenge against you and I will come back…mark my words" Krye hissed then grabbed a few things and left the room his cloak blowing behind him.
End of flashback"How would she know" Calcifer asked.
"He's been sighted in a few areas near the palace I think" Howl said shrugging.
"You think he'll come after you" Calcifer asked picking up a log.
"Most likely" he said grinning.
"I can't understand how you can take this all so likely" Calcifer muttered.
"You sound like Sophie" Howl retorted "speaking of which is she asleep?"
"Yeah……..she was strangely distant today I think she's sick" Calcifer said attention changed to look at the stairs.
"Sick?"
"Yeah she went to the field and came back looking paler than silver."
"Hmm" Howl thought for a moment than stood up "well I'm going to bed, good night Calcifer."
"Yeah, yeah leave me here all alone" he heard him mutter.
For a moment Howl stood out Sophie's door, as he was about to walk away he thought her heard someone singing. Stopping he pressed his ear to her door, hearing nothing he shook it off as lack of sleep and went to his room.
While Sophie herself laid in bed, sleeping she may have been but that did not matter……
"All I want from you is your hurting""I want to save you from the dark"
"Give unto me your troubles"
"I'll end all your suffering"
"Music" Sophie mumbled.
"Please unto me your burden"Sophie felt her head lighten somewhat "show me what you know" she heard someone whisper.
Hands…..she felt hands on her temples.
"There's a good girl…………………….I want to save you" the note slowly faded.
Sophie woke with a start, someone was talking below her "goodness what a strange dream" she said dressing.
Startled pretty much divined her when she walked down stairs to see breakfast was already ready.
"But..how…" she was a little lost for words.
"You forget I can cook" Howl said behind, she gave a little jump.
"Howl? When did you get back?" she demanded.
"Last night" he admitted, when she demanded something it made everyone feel like they did something wrong.
"Ok" she said slowly sitting down she started to hum the song that she dreamed about.
"That a song you played" Markl asked.
"No..it's funny I dreamed about this song last night" Sophie said chuckling.
Howl looked up at that and studied her for a moment, she was in fact a little pale but seemed lighter in a way.
IAG- ok I have decided they reopened the flower shop forget the other note
Sophie ate a bit of toast but aside from that was not very hungry, and decided that she'd get some more flowers yesterday the ones she brought back were only tulips.
Looking around to make sure the place was clean as Markl obediently helped clean up the dishes.
"I'll be out for a while" Sophie announced putting on her hat.
"Where are you going" Howl asked looking up from a spell he was working on.
"Just the field" Sophie said slowly.
"Swallow it up in the sound of my screaming, cannot cease for the fear of silent nights"
"Did you hear that" Sophie suddenly asked, everyone looked at her strangely.
"Hear what?" Calcifer asked.
"That singing-…oh never mind" Sophie walked toward the door, not hearing Howl talking to her.
"Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming"
Changing the knob Sophie looked up hearing the singing clearly, she daintily walking through the door into the field.
"The goddess if imaginary light"
Looking around she felt haunted as a breeze fluttered the flowers slightly.
"In my field of paper flowers"A gust of wind blew all the flowers at her, one being caught in her hand her eyes widened as she noticed it was paper.
"And candy clouds of lullaby, I lie inside myself for hours and watch my purple sky sly over me"
Sophie looked up completely mesmerized the sky was now a reddish purple color.
"I linger in the doorway, of alarm clocks screaming"Almost hypnotized Sophie took a step forward the singing was beautiful. Another paper flower whizzed past her cutting her cheek slightly.
"Monsters calling my name"She didn't notice the ghost like figures dancing around her and if she did she couldn't react.
"Let me stay where the wind will whisper to me"Another gust of wind blew at her shaking her hair out, blowing away her hat.
"Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story"The clouds darkened from a purple to a deep grey, raindrops fell heavy into the field weighting down the paper flowers, and each one as they hit the ground gave out a small cry.
"If you need to leave the world you live in"One of the ghost creatures was coming toward her she was somehow in the middle of the field now. A large portal like hole near her "SOPHIE!" someone yelled, she felt someone grab her arms and pull her back.
For a second she thought she glimpsed a women standing in the middle of the vortex reaching her arms out. Herself being pulled by an unknown assistance only saw a glimpse of her, she was pulled closer and felt bursting through a door.
"Though you may not remember dreaming, something waits for you to breath again!" that one note was heard loud and clear.
Looking up she saw Howl's worried eyes staring back at her "Sophie are you all right" someone asked she couldn't tell who.
"It was spell singing" she heard who she thought was Howl say, she was set down in a chair.
"Than she's been hypnotized?" Markl asked.
"I don't know" Howl said shaking his head "Calcifer?"
"That is some strong magic" Calcifer said pulling closer.
She sat unmoving, she was hardly breathing.
"Markl help me with a spell" Howl ordered moving to the shelf.
"Right" Markl said and started to help him.
They all heard the door open "HOWL" Calcifer yelled, the door was open to wear they were flying (and very high above ground) standing in the doorway was Sophie still mesmerized.
"Get her before she jumps" Calcifer yelped.
Howl quickly caught her wrist and she was about to move forward "what the hell is she doing?"
"Hey Markl get the green bottle with a blue top it might help" Calcifer ordered Howl tried to move Sophie.
"Here" Markl handed it to Howl who looked at Calcifer.
"Am I the only one here with a brain, rub it on her temples" Calcifer said annoyed.
Howl did what he was told and Sophie slowly blinked her eyes.
"Sophie?"
"Howl….." Sophie looked at him slowly as if just noticing he was there.
"Well this doesn't look to good" the Witch said.
"I wouldn't suppose you know how to undo the spell" Howl asked bitterly.
"All I know is find the singer you find out how to break it" she answered.
"Howl what's spell singing?" Markl asked.
"It's spells that are cast by singing" Howl replied waving a hand in front of Sophie's face.
"You think it was Krye?" Calcifer asked.
"It was defiantly a women singing" Howl countered.
"Well we just have to find her" Calcifer said.
"I hope this doesn't take to long" Howl said shooting a mournful glance at Sophie.
Farther away…
"I'm sorry I couldn't get her here darling" a black haired women said to the man behind her.
"It's quite alright Celestra you did cast the spell on her though right?"
"Of course spells are so much easier than getting her here, Krye" Celestra replied.
"So dear what did you do to her?"
"I made her sprit need more," she said simply.
"Celestra please speak in Krye language," Krye said sighing.
"Well her soul will have a need for freedom her body is now only a shell and the soul will do anything to escape which includes killing the body."
"You truly are the siren," Krye said putting a arm around her waist.
"Now what do we do?" she asked.
"We wait."
