I run through the forest as fast as I can go. ~What is that thing?~ I think, terrified. Branches are ripping my already torn slave clothes to almost nothing. I shriek as a wall of fire rises up and spreads all around me. ~What do i do?~

I sit in the basement of the castle. I've changed my servant's garb in for a more comfortable dress. I shouldn't be doing this, I think. But I need to find the extent of what I can do and the only way to do that is to experiment. Steeling myself, I take a knife and make a small cut into my foot. I focus all my attention on my foot. Green light hovers between my foot and hand. The cut disappears! This is not good, I think.

I sit up, fast. "ouch!" I whisper loudly as my head hits the ceiling. ~not that dream again.~ I think as I rub my head. Ever since I found out I was... special, I'd been having these wierd dreams. Like that one. Being chased by dragons, being chased by well... lots of things. I decide to get up and get a drink of water and walk out to the little pond by the servant house and put my hand out. A stream of water seems to float up to me. In fact, it does. I coarse it into my mouth to take a drink.

I sit there in shock for a moment but then footsteps bring me back to the world. I'm not supposed to be here without permission. I run out the back door...and straight into someone sitting by the lake near the servant quarters. Since we're both so small, we bounce right off of each other. "Sorry!" I call, sitting up.

"Aahh!" I scream asI topple over. "Sorry!" The girl says. I can't tell who it is in the dark at first, but then "Alyss? What are you doing?!" I whisper. "We aren't aloud to be out here! He could hear us!" I can see lights coming closer and closer. The guards lanterns. They DID hear us. Panic rises through me. " Come on!" I scream at Alyss. We start running towards the slave house, but i can see guard's there too. Where do we turn now?

"Ieeria?" I ask, squinting through the dark. "What am I doing here? What are you doing here?" I shoot back. But the guards have already heard us. We sprint back to the servants hut and rush in, slamming the door behind us. "That was close," I breathe, out of breath. I'm not exactly the athletic type.

The whole slave house wakes up at the sound of the door slamming. "What's going on?" A bunch of them ask, sleepily. "Just go back to bed." I whisper, and look over at Alyss. "Let's go up to my bed."

I look up to see who had slammed a door in the middle of the night. Two girls walk in. They were slaves, yes. "Where were you guys?" I ask, wondering why they had been out.

ooc: your post is in past tense. "Where were you guys?" Someone in the darkness says, just as Alyss and I were about to go talk up in my area. I squint my eyes to see who it is. "Rox? I was just getting a drink."

"Just getting a drink?" I asked, sitting next to Rox. "Are you sure it wasn't something else? It sure seemed like it by the way you came in here." After all, just getting a drink didn't require slamming the door after returning.

ooc: don't pay attention to her, rox. she doesn't know what she's talking about. She be having the concussions now, lol
"Well," I tuck a piece of hair behind my ear. I haven't been in this house specifically long enough to know these two, so I don't know if I can trust them yet. I don't like the look of that Rie fellow. He doesn't seem very nice. So I basically offer up nothing to the table.

"Look. Lets just get back to bed before the guards come in and start whipping us there." I say. I'm trying to cover for Alyss, but I have no idea what exactly it is I'm covering for.

I shake my head. "You know what? We're going to get whipped anyway, so you might as well explain. Besides, if you do, we could perhaps decide if we want to cover for YOU." i point after giving Rie a glance.

"Well aren't we optimistic." I muttered sarcastically. "Besides, why would I want to cover for some girl I don't even know? Besides it's not like the guards can catch me, anyways." I said, leaning against the wall with my hands behind my head.

I toss the idea of telling them about my power. "No, no one needs to cover for me. I'll take the blame for everything." Hopefully they would take just that. If she was beaten for being outside after hours without permission, then at least she could heal herself.
