OOC:I know you did... wow... that's not that hard to imagine... Ya you can stay the ENTIRE week! meaning you'll have to pack your dress with you. You know for Jocey's party... her quincenera(sp?).
IC: Anne walked down the stairs, James had finished before, as did Serayna which sort of scared Anne. James was staring at her with a gawking expression, and Serayna smiled.
"How long have you been ready Serayna?" Anne asked looking at her.
"Nearly... an hour." She said smoothly. Anne's jaw dropped to the floor.
"What?! We woke you up a little over an hour ago." Anne exclaimed.
"Yeah, i know." Serayna said. Anne shook it off, it was so weird how it took Serayna no time at all to get ready. She didn't really look like a princess. More like a hobo wearing a gown.
One of the butlers that randomly ran around the castle walked up to Serayna and whispered something in her ear, handing her a letter. Her eyes were wide, as she looked at the letter.
She quickly thanked the butler and ripped open the letter. She read it quickly, her eyes dashing madly across the page.
She conjured a chair up out of nowhere and sat down upon it. Anne read her feelings carefully, her thoughts and secrets guarded by... some other force.
Anne suddenly saw nothing. She was surrounded by black. She was used to this. It was what happened to Anne, whenever the Council talked to her. This only occured when she looked within Serayna's mind.
"Anne, this letter is filled with sorrow. You mustn't let Serayna dwell on it too much." Cadmus said choosing her words carefully. The others nodded, and thats when Anne noticed Serayna.
"Serayna? She never used to be here." Anne said pointing out her friend. The Council members looked at Serayna and then back at Anne.
"That is because matters before didn't concern you both. Serayna do not dwell on the letter all will be revealed as to its meaning eventually. And Anne, make sure that she doesn't let it's contents fill her thoughts, and cloud her reasoning." Dania spoke out. Anne nodded, but Serayna just stared at her ancestor's wondering how much about this they knew.
"There will be tests of strength and wisdom and character that will come your way. And if you let this turn of events cloud your mind, the test will come as a great struggle... for the both of you. It will be a team effort that you must get through together." Ilicya explained. Ilicya was Phoenix's sister.
"When will this test of strength come?" Serayna asked. Her great grandmother stared at her.
"We will warn you when it is close. But for now, enjoy your comings and goings. For they might be your last." The Council echoed as the vision faded out. Anne came to and looked at Serayna who held the letter out. Anne took it and neatly folded it back into the envelope. She snapped her fingers and it disappeared only to reappear in the Family Royal Tomb.
That was the safest place. It always has been. But even there it was not safe from the venturing, curious mind of Serayna.

dude....dude... we have a new monitor.... it is so AWESOME! IC: "They aren't ready yet." A voice murmured mysteriously from the shadows. Everyone in the room jumped and looked at the intruder. They were standing in the corner, where not really anyone could see them because they were shrouded in shadows.
Anne quickly looked for a spell to dissolve their disguise, but she didn't find one fast enough, they dissolved it themselves. Everyone but Anne gasped in the room. She looekd around confused as to what was happening.
"Ondres? What do you mean they aren't ready? They're about as ready as they ever were." Dania spoke out. He smiled and walked forward.
"Serayna, isn't this council made up of only girls?" Anne asked. Serayna nodded staring at the man, in a sort of shocked expression.
"Why did you leave?" Serayna just blurted out. He turned around and stared at her. THen he smiled.
"I had to. Business called me away." He reasoned. She shook her head.
"Then why didn't you come back? Why did you stay there?" She asked, Anne could see the tears welling up in her eyes.
"Hey, what's going on here? Serayna who is this?" Anne demanded stepping forward.
"Who am i? You're asking who i am, when you aren't even related to this family?" Ondres asked. Anne looked taken aback. She looked at Cadmus for an explanation. Cadmus was the original. The mother of them all, in a sense of the term.
"She is related, she is Phoenix's daughter, but her lineage was removed from our histories when her family moved out of Palace. The reason she is here again, is because her parents were massacred and they, her brother and her, escaped here." Cadmus explained. Ondres smirked.
"Welcome to the family. Daughter."

OOC: Oh, wait... you fixed it somehow. now if only I could learn how to spell... That would be greeeeeeeeatt. Did I tell you I misspelled my last name in class yesterday?
IC: Anne winced as she watched the man called Ondres mouth the words. His thin lips looked like slimy little worms as he carefully pronounced each and every sound in every word he spoke. She stepped back, disgusted by her own thoughts about his wormy lips, as James lightly grabbed her hand. He could tell she was getting sick and confused. She was sick of being confused. Serayna took a step toward Cadmus and Ondres as they took a step toward her. She glared at them, knowing what was coming next. "Alright," Serayna said forcefully, "How do I get rid of you beasts?" But they didn't have to answer her, she could tell by their actions.
For every step she took, they took one step in the opposite direction. It was like a puzzle. The only way to get them to leave would be to get them to walk into the portal across the room, in which the furniture was aranged ever so much like a maze, and into the next dimension where, hopefully, they wouldn't be able to escape. Serayna sat on the floor after a few minutes of watching the two. They sat down too. Serayna pondered how she would get this to work and how she could solve this problem without getting herself killed and being late for supper. Tonight was her royal crowning and she wasn't going to let two idiots from her past ruin it for her.

"ENOUGH! There will be NO getting rid of!" Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared up. It was nothing. Literally. There was just a black blob of shadow that seemed to loom above them menacingly.
"I"m sorry but today is not a day to get bloody. Including when there are no monsters in this realm. This is a peaceful place where none but the Council reside. Ah, i see you have found members to your Council. This is good. Very Good." The blob spoke to them.
"Serayna, the letter given to you was from Ronan, an old friend of yours. He has said things that confuse you. In his letter it says that there are three living heirs to this throne and if neither of the future queens want it, the King will step forth. He has promised that your kingdom will be taken care of whenever you are away. He claims that he knows more than you give him credit." The shadow explained. Serayna nodded her head.
Ronan had sent her a letter but she could tell there was something wrong.
"I feel as if something is wrong here. A disturbance in the force." Serayna said. It was the best way to explain it. There was no other way to describe this feeling.
"That is because Ronan is telling you something BENEATH the lines. Understanding is just the beginning." The shadow preached. Serayna looked within herself to find the answer.
Suddenly a voice boomed from nowhere, like a memory just barely surfacing.
NO, you have to get out of here. Take the children and run! Isabella get out of here! Save yourself! Save the children! They must be saved at all costs!" He screamed. Isabella ran through the house, gathering her children.
"Jacob darling, wake up. Please, darling wake up. We must hurry. We have no time to waste." Isabella urged shaking her eldest son. He groand and rolled out of bed onto the floor. She ran and shook her daughter, Anne, awake who appeared to be grumpy at being woken up.
"Mommy, i wanna go back to sleep, let me fall back asleep, mummy!" Anne asked politely.
"No honey, we have no time to waste, pack a few things together darling. We must leave as soon as possible. Hurry now, we mustn't take too long." Her mother urged grabbing a bag for Anne to stuff her possessions within.
Isabella gasped and ran into another room. She grabbed a small baby. A baby boy.
"How could i forget you, my darling Phoebus. My wonderful Apollo. My Guardian of the Sun? My dear Edward Ronan Porter. And the vision ended. Serayna looked around and gasped.
"I know what he meant. If it wasn't obvious enough. My god, i can't believe this. Anne, you'll never believe...." Serayna started, but then they appeared back in the halls... with the Council surrounding them.
"You're, out of my mind. What is this? What's going on here?" Serayna screamed just as the whole of Palace started to shake, and crumble.

"We're out of your mind? We're out of your mind?? You really think we're the ones? No, you're out of your mind." Cadmus took a step forward, an archaic grin across her face. She seemed so emotionless, yet so menacing. Something was definitely not right here.
Then the world went black, The stars fell from the sky. You didn't come back, Why'd you have to make me cry?

Serayna shook herself... this was very confusing... Even though everything had happened in a few minutes... it felt like everything had happened over the span of a month. She couldn't remember what was going on. She could barely remember her own name. And you could just forget those who stood around her.
The council has never been in the world since they were alive. What is going on? Wait, the Council... never outside... It's so simple... Serayna thought and with this last phrase she felt, again, in a movie. It was silent. She could only see what was happening. She couldn't hear it.
She understood why things were crumbling. The Council was in her mind still. It was her. She was the one who was crumbling. Breaking apart. Breaking down. It was her who was falling.
She saw her life flash before her. The deeds she had done, both good and bad... she saw the men she loved. Past and Present lovers. Caliban, Aeilon, Dromio, Panthris and Xavier. In order.
She found it within herself to call out one last time. One hope, one salvation Forever dead and held in crapation We once held these moments close to our heart But now we push them away. Find it there find it deep The feelings you held once You know i love you, I always have. Don't be wrong, please rescue me!
