Red glowing eyes stare down on you, as you stood there in the dark.
"You think you can elode me? You are forgetting your place."a scratchy voice tells you.
You look up at those eyes, as yours narrows"...I will destory you father."you tell the eyes of your father.
"You amuse me with your games. You feel me getting closer. Your time will run out. You are my child, and just as me you spread death and chaos where ever you lay foot."he tells you
"Your death will come soon."you tell him, as your eyes glow."I will crush you with all I have. You beg me for your life."
"You dare!"as a shadow tentcale comes and wraps around your neck. As it started to strangle you badly. You couldn't breathe. It scared you. As he straggled you"You forget your place. Your power is no match for mine. Did you not learn your lesson? You think your little deed of good will, help to cover up all those you have murder in my name? It will not, your fate will be same."
You tried to free yourself from his grip but it was no use. He pulls you up to look straight into his eyes, he saw the fear you where trying to hide. A huge grin appears below his eyes."You fear me. Good."he opens his mouth. As he holds you up"You shall and always will belong to me."He holds you over his mouth, as he drops you inside, closing his mouth while you screamed from horrors you saw from within.
You shot up,white as a ghost as you gasp for air. That was denied to you,in your meeting with your father. You clunch your chest to make sure you still had your heart beat. It was beating rapidly, your breathing was out of controll.
You try to calm yourself, but it was hard. You touch your throat to make sure there was nothing around your neck, you winch in pain as you touched your neck. Your neck was in pain.
Your hands started to tremble, you grip something soft in your hands. As you look down and see it was a blanket. Which made you look around quickly as you see in room. It wasn't your room, no it was another one. A much more expesive looking one. You look out the window and see it was night time.
"Your up."a voice
You turn and see a palace sevant standing there with a bowl and some cloths. She looked at you surprised to see you up. You looked at her,her eyes drop to your neck. She sees the mark left there. Her eyes grow was something else.
"What?"you asked her.
She didn't say anything,she was afriad didn't have the patience. You get up out of the bed,you threw your covers back. That you didn't noticed Amun was there.
You hurry to a mirror,you find one. You look at yourself, your eyes widen at the mark you had around your neck it was huge. You hold up your arms,there where marks on them as well. They where fresh ones. Your heart started to race. You then saw your father's eyes flash in the mirror. As well his grin. You stumble back, away from the mirror. That you trip, his eyes strared right at you. His grin formed into a smile.
You could only do the one thing you could think of, you darted out the room.
"W-wait"the maid yells after you.
Amun heard her, he comes from under the covers. He looks around not seeing you there. But he did see your cloak he quickly goes and grabs it in his teeth and hurries after you.
You ran down the halls of the palace. Your father's laughter in your ears. It echoed in the halls. You could feel him getting closer to you, just as he told you. Your skin crawled with his presence either in your mind or here. You weren't sure. You just wanted to get away.
Just like when you where little, how you ran away from him. To get away from his cruel ways on how he treated you. You just couldn't handle it. The abuse you had suffered. And still now you suffer from him.
The thoughts of your father, caused you to crash into something making it fall to the floor as you tripped over it. There was a loud crash. You didn't care you pick yourself up as you run still. You had to get out. Some way, you didn't want to stay here in the palace.
Amun was still chasing you. He followed the wave of destoruction you caused, as well the sound of pounding feet that followed you. He had to get to you before the others. He understood what just happen. He pushed himself more and more to speed up his little legs. He was worried and scared for you.
You make it outside, but it wasn't outside the palace you made your way to the gardens. One of the other ones. You look around, unsure where to you, so you darted off into the thickness of it. Branches and thorns sratched your legs as well your arms. But that didn't matter to you, it was until you tripped and fell into water.
It was a fountian. You come up from the water. Your head hung low, you hold in your anger but it was hard. As you shake your head. You stayed in the fountian,as the water hit you on the top of your head. It didn't bother you. It ran down your head,to your face, all over you. The moon's light hit you.
With your head down, you paid no mind to who was coming. But you felt a hand on your shoulder. This startled you. You turn and look up to find King Claudius standing there. You looked up at him,your eyes told him everything. He wasn't mad at you, he unclips his cloth.
A rustle came from behind him, Tygra and Lion-O make it into the open. When they see their father covering you with his cloth. He helps you out the fountian, carefully. You where soaked from head to foot. Tygra and Lion-O didn't know what to say.
Lion-O looked at you, he saw the mark around your neck,he saw the other injures you had on you. He watched you as his father walked passed him and Tygra, with you as he took you back to the palace. They hurry and follow behind.
You reach back to the palace. Once you did the guards came as they drew their weapons at you. The second they did, Lion-O lashed out at them as he gets infront of you and his father.
"Put those down!"he yells at them, they look at him. He growls at them, his eyes locked on them firecely. Waiting for one of them to make a move so he could make one himself.
They do as he says, but very slowly."Tygra, please take Zahra to a guest room."Claudius hands you off to Tygra.
"Yes, father"he takes you slowly from his father"This way."he tells you leading you away.
Claudius watches you walk away, he turns back to the guards"There is no need for weapons, we do not have an enemy here."he tells the gurads.
"Yes, but si-"one of the guards speak up. Clauduis holds up his hand.
"Please inform Jaga that Zahra is staying at the palace tonight."he tells one of his guards.
"Yes"they tell him.
Claudius turns away from, as he sees Amun come running over with your cloth in his mouth. He stops when he sees Claudius. He looks up at him, his eyes where big. If he could cry he would.
Claudius understood him, he gets down as he pets Amun"She's fine."he scoops up Amun who allowed him."Lion-O take Amun to the room Zahra is in. As well her cloth."he hands Amun to him.
Lion-O takes Amun in his arms as well your cloth."Yeah, ok"he tells his father as he runs off with Amun. Who started to whine as he burried himself in Lion-O's arms.
Lion-O looked down at him, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him. It didn't take him long to reach your room. Tygra was still in there, when Lion-O came in. You where sleeping now,still wearing their father's cloth.
Tygra looks over at his brother as he came in with Amun. When Amun saw you, he waste no time jumping out of Lion-O's arms as he races to you, jumping into your bed. He saw you sleeping, he goes and cruls up by the top of your head,he looks at you before he closed his eyes.
Lion-O places your cloth down on a chair. He looks at you."She feel asleep,right when she layed down."Tygra tells him, as he looked at you."Come on."he tells him.
"I'm going to stay a bit"Lion-O tells him.
Tygra stops walking as he turns and looks at his little brother. Who was looking down at you, he saw something in his little brother's eyes. It was something firece. Something he felt the need to protect. Tygra didn't say anything he just left Lion-O as he walked out the room, shutting the door as well.
Lion-O kept looking at you, he thought back to those two times you visited him. He thought of your eyes, how they looked. How you looked, and now here you where a bit injured. He grabs a chair as he sits down in it right next to your bed. As he watched you sleep through the night,he uses the back of his hand to gently touch your cheek."Rest, Zahra. You're safe."he tells you. As he takes it back.
