[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
pair of blood red eyes filled with evil and hate.

She was so afraid, she was in shock.

It happened so fast she didn’t even have time to scream.

By the her reaction time had dawned upon her, her scream was stopped by a forceful clawed hand heated with tension and anger any yet she was beginning to feel cold.

She fitfully gasped for the air that would never come, she saw it coming the darkness came like a shroud over her vision, she didn’t even see his face.

And then all was quiet and she lay limp in his hands, as he carried her back.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She awoke in a cold wet cell covered in the sent of death and decay, all was dark and her eyes had not gotten used to it yet. There was water running down the walls so she kept herself from leaning against them she huddled herself against a corner while she tried to remember how she got here.

Then it all came back the tree the man and the pain.

She didn’t even know what she had done wrong.

Her head was hung in shame when something caught her eye, it was a mass in the shape of a human body so she drew closer to the person to see who they were and what they were here for and possibly if they knew why she was here.

The stench of rotting flesh hit her nose as she noticed there was no breath coming out of the body, it had died what smelled like weeks ago.

Elaine quickly got as far away form it as possible, and returned to her corner and waited for who or what she did not know but she waited.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What seemed like one week later there was a new sound other than the ones Elaine had become accustomed to like the dripping water of the moaning of other prisoners or the sound of the feet or rats the ferociously ate her cellmate’s rotting flesh.

This was something different, it sounded like footsteps but they were faint.

‘Probably someone from another dungeon floor above us.’ She thought.

The they came closer.

And closer.

Now she could hear the doors opening above her.

And now they sounded like thick boots above her head coming down to the lower levels then…….they stopped.

She released the breath she didn’t realize she was holding and calmed her nerves.

The she began to hear voices not too far off the were muffled so she did not realize what was being said.

Then there was the jingling of keys.

Then she heard the sound of the lock on the lower level door being opened.

She gasped for breath she was so afraid of what was behind that door she just hoped and prayed that it wasn’t there for her.

The boots came down the hall as she whispered silent prayers that the solider that now came into her vision in the dark was not here for her, but then with relief her passed her cell door.

He went down to the end of the hall, she was so happy he had passed by that she did not notice he was coming back.

And he halted at her cell door and yelled for the officer in charge, “ Get the cell key for 6661 will yah, and hurry!”

The a second man came and handed him the key and he put it into the lock and unlocked the only thing keeping her from him, she almost wished that it would have stayed just the way it was.

He thrust open the old rusted door and said, “Come with me you.”

She did not know if he was friend or foe but she did not trust him either way. She didn’t trust anybody.

Elaine was taken to a room where there was an old woman who she guess was waiting for her.

“There you are, oh you poor thing why would they put such a young girl like you in such a nasty place as that dungeon.” The old woman said with a look of pity on her face.
Elaine did not answer her but let her head fall.

“Now don’t worry I am here to clean you up, my name is Mary, how old are you sweet heart?” She said, talking so fast Elaine could barely understand her.

With her head down Elaine muttered out, “Fourteen.”

“Well how young you are, you are such a pretty girl when you get all cleaned up.” Mary said as she showed Elaine her image in a full length mirror.

“Might I ask you something Miss Mary.” Elaine almost whispered out timidly.

“Well of course girlie.” The lively woman replied.

“What is the date of today?” She said.

“Well of course it is the 18th of April, now come I will show you your quarters for the night.” Mary said.

“For the night?”

“Yes dear child your trial is tomorrow.” Mary answered.

“Might you know what I have done?” Elaine asked sheepishly.

“You mean you don’t even know what you have done wrong yourself?!?”

“No……….I have no idea.” Elaine said.

“Well it is best you get some rest tonight you will need it for tomorrow you go in front of the Lord and Lady and the Prince of the Western lands.” Mary said.

“But do not worry, for their heart are warm and they do not kill without true reason.” Mary said as she walked out the door.

Elaine snag her favorite melody to calm herself into a slow relaxed sleep, and the song inside of her heart was written on her lips as her angelic voice echoed through the halls catching a demons attention.

He sat at the door and listened to her voice until it suddenly stopped and it was replaced by deep breathing behind the door, he opened it to find a beautiful young lady asleep in the bed she had been given for the night.

He wished to hear her voice again but he knew he would have to wait……at least until morning.
