LOGIC DEFINES REALITY ANYDAY. THAT IS HOW I LIVED MY LIFE. -Emma
This is it. I thought to myself as I sat in my room with Shane. This was really happening. I faced him with a sadden look on my face. He returned the expression. I knew what I had to do but I really didn't want to put my life o his on the line. I especially didn't want to go back to The Grey Realm. It was so depressing over there and everyone was a ghost which makes me think of death. Apparently, it had that effect on everyone that has ever been to The Grey Realm. "Are te sure this is the only way to save Sophie? What if she actually is here with Madison o something?" I was scared and making up excuses not to go.
He held my hand and stared into my eyes intensely. "I promise te that I wouldn't let anything happen to te . . . o Sophie. te have got o trust me on this. te was born to save them. te was born to rule them."
"You make it sound so simple. I go in, stop the bad guy, and rule The Grey Realm." I looked away. Hs gaze was too much. It made me even più confuse. How could he be this friendly when e have only known each other for about a week? He had to be working some kind of angle. Everyone always has an ulterior motive, what was his? "I know te think I can do this but get real. I am useless when it comes to these things. I would rather stay in the background and let someone like te fight the battles."
A bit of a smile danced on his lips. "Trust me," he whispered. He was much closer to me now, closer then I realized. The intoxicating scent of him overwhelmed me. I abruptly stood up just to get away from it, from it all. I didn't need him hitting on me when I was suppose to be concentrating on me sister.
"I trust you, let's just of okay," I detto dismissively. His facial expression was confused but it suddenly became hard unreadable.
"Fine," he said. He held up both his arms and made a flicker motion with his fingers. A spark that suddenly grew into large flames was on my wall. Instead of being in awe, I was simply a bit alarmed. Those flames could get out of hand and possibly burn my house down. I think he wasn't expecting flames either. "What? I didn't do that. Run. I know who did we gotta run now!" I wasn't the most athletic person in the room and I was still alarmed da the flames that we're growing increasingly. Noticing my pause, he grabbed me da the wrist and we ran it the door, down the stairs and into the library.
"What was that?" I asked.
"The One," he said. "I believe he is after you. Remember how I broke te out of jail well he probably found out. This house is the first place he would come looking for te at." It was early daytime about two days after we made the escape. I knew The Ghost Realm lived at different times then us.
"How do te know so much about this?" I questioned. It probably wasn't the best idea to interrogate the person who was saving te but for some reason, I had to know. I needed to know.
He stared at me incredulously and for a moment I was afraid he wasn't going to answer. "Let's just say, when te play with fire, te get burnt."
That could mean a lot of things and honestly, he didn't answer my question. He was hiding something. He had to be. I realized that now wasn't the time to start questioning. I saved that for a moment when we aren't in peril danger. "What are we going to do now?"
"You need a sicuro, cassetta di sicurezza haven. I know the place to go but it will take up all of my energy and I will most likely not be able to help te do get harmed.
That was a chance I was willing to take. "Go ahead." He again held up his arms, made a flickering motion with is fingers, and hummed someone words that almost sounded like French. A purple bacheca formed on the library's wall. It was beautiful and a bit elegant. A loud bang came from the biblioteca door. I was shoved in the bacheca with Shane close behind. I caught a glimpse at the thing banging out the door. Sophie.
I tumbled inside a thick forest that was much similar to mine at the house. Actually it was my forest. "You just transported us into my forest."
"Actually beyond these trees are another realm. Welcome to The Royal Court."

I walk into
The Fields of Sorrow
Once again.
Why do I walk there
Almost everyday?
I stroll along the grasses
Thinking
Bearing a horrible pain.
I think of the world around me
And how much they have inspired me.
I start to cry once again.
All my teachers
All my friends,
They have always stood da me,
When things went wrong.
I want a chance to repay them,
To mostra them that...
Their work was useful.
To mostra them that
I am truly thankful.
Why do I have to leave them then
Now?
No, now's not a good time.
But I know it was not intended
That I leave them now.
I want to mostra all those people
That they have been
The change of my life,
That they have made my life so much
Better,
That they were the flames
In the darkness.

I will not be under your tyranny
Your cruel and oppressive force
Yes, maybe te should be my leader
But that doesn't mean I should follow te all the time
Do te know he's got te bound
Under ropes and chains of cruelty
Well, I don't wanna be a follower
If it means I have to be a killer
No, I'm not exactly kind-hearted
But that doesn't mean I have to kill, kill, kill
I don't wanna be just a senseless follower
I have a heart, I have a soul, so I don't follow you
I don't just wanna be a follower
So I don't give a fuck bout what te do, do, do
But I myself will not give in to the tyranny
So you'll watch me leave
No one's gonna stop me
Look, I'm walking out the doors of tyranny
And I'm not gonna be a senseless follower
Ever again in my life.
