Out of Control
 
Why now? Why here? His thoughts were frantic. Was she okay? Was she even still alive? Ever since the indecent in the garden he had not seen hide nor hair of his caretaker and he was worried beyond belief. Not only for her but for himself, for not shortly after she left something truly strange happened. That odd flower, the one that was left behind in the queens foot steps, it had glowed strangely and then some how it disappeared into nothing but a speck of light that was soon absorbed into his hands. Though it was not the flowering disappearing and the light entering his body that scared him, for this world that they lived in was surely full of such odd happenings. But what horrified him was the overwhelming feelings that soon followed. His senses, everything about him seemed heightened in some way. He was felt like he was being consumed by the very world around him.
 
He tried to calm himself as he felt his thoughts going in a darker direction, fearing that his overactive senses would make those mere thoughts come true. He turned to look out the window yet again, hoping to find some calm in the steady skies above. He was so enraptured in his meditation that he did not notice that another person had entered the room.
 
“It maybe calming to find some peace in nature when it feels like the world is closing in on you but you must also keep a steady hold on what is still going on around you. Otherwise you may very well drown while trapped with in your calm and not even know it,” a soft voice sighed from behind him.
 
He quickly turned and looked about the room looking for the source of the voice and found it in the glint of light that came forth from one of the shadows. He knew right away it was HER, the one that kept him trapped here. “You've come to torture me haven't you?” he whispered as he hardened his eyes.
 
She slowly stepped forth from the shadows allowing the soft light that filtered through the window to illuminate her, though some how even with all the light upon her the shadows seemed to cling to her and draw her back to them, a seeming war between the light and the shadow. “I would have done so much earlier if I had any intent to do so. As for the welfare of your attendant,” she paused slowly turning her body to face the window.
 
He quirked a brow, growing impatient with her unfinished statement. “What of her? Have you killed her already? Getting rid of the horrid human infestation you have?” he hissed through clenched teeth, anger apparent in his eyes.
 
“She is far from dead and if you truly must know her reasons for not returning is that she is preparing for her marriage,” she stated turning her masked face to glance at him. “As for the elimination of my horrid human infestation, well that is another matter interiorly. Seeing as how I would rather have it grow then disappear.”
 
Taken aback he could do nothing but move his mouth. Not fully believing what she was saying he quickly walked forward trying to some how intimidate her into telling what the knew to be the truth.
 
“I have not come here to argue with you so please refrain from such ignorant actions. For what you hold to be the truth may not actually be,” she stated turning to face him in his challenge, “I have come to carry out the business for which you have even been kept here for so long.”
 
His anger flared even more, “and why dear lady would that be?” he sneered with cruel sarcasm dripping forth from his throat.
 
She turned quickly but gracefully and walked back into the shadows from which she appeared, “seeing as how you delayed so long I am afraid our meeting must be cut short. Our business will have to be put off until a later time. As for your beloved attendant, tell me this. Did you even dare learn her name? Or even ask of her life outside of caring for you after your first meeting?”
 
Disgruntled he quickly searched for her within the shadows. Annoyed that she would so quickly dissert him and even more so because she knew that he never actually took much thought into the girl that came to his aid other then that she was always there when he needed her help healing.
 
A slight glimmer was his only reward before that too disappeared and he knew that she was no longer there and he was left once again. Left to figure this place he had been thrown into without thought, left in this world that he had no control over, in a world that he could not even seemingly control his own overwhelming senses.
