Reflections of a Lost Time Chapter 6
So this is the shortest chapter so far, but it is good. At least I think it is. So please R&R.
Aelphaba woke up as she heard knocking. She looked around the room, but because of the spell the witch had but on her, it was impossible to turn to look behind her. But she didn't need to wait long to know what the knocking was because Galinda flew up from the chair and ran out of Aelphaba's sight. She could hear a window open and something landing lightly on the floor. The she saw the witch running past her bed and to the desk. The desk wads filled with pot and books that Galinda had been setting up, since the witch came into the room waking Aelphaba just forty-five minutes ago. The witch was holding a bundle in her arms, which she put down on the table. What ever it was the witch was doing it absorbed her totally. Galinda stood by her mother the entire time handing her different things. The witch then started to chant in a language that Aelphaba had never heard before. The witch's voice filled up the room and as the chanting continued the room was filled with a sparking tension. Aelphaba had to admit to her self that the witch had a very beautiful voice and even though she couldn't understand anything the softness and soothing tone helped her to calm down. The witch finished her chanting and asked Galinda for a blanket. Galinda went over and picked one up from the chair by the bed and gave it to the witch. The witch draped around something and then picked the bundle up again and held it against her body as to protect it. Galinda picked up the things on the table and went out the door. Aelphaba was left with the witch again. The witch sat down by the foot end of the bed on a chair. Aelphaba didn't let the witch out of sight and as she lay there watching the green skinned woman she started to grow tired again and she closed her eyes. She just couldn't fall asleep but, just as she was about to give up trying, she heard the witch starting to sing again. This time she sang a lullaby. It was an old lullaby that Aelphaba only had heard one other person sing in her entire life, her mother, Glinda the good. Her mother had always sung it when Aelphaba had woken up during thunderstorms when she was younger and here was her mother's archenemy singing it. Aelphaba slowly started to have really hard focusing on these kind of thoughts and while listening to the witch's voice she drifted of to sleep.
Hope you will continue to review 'cause I won't upload otherwise.
