                                            It twas your eyes that made thy spin,

                                           Tis you kiss that made thy sin,

                                            And thy's heart was forever light,

                                           Inside a soul was burning in bright,

                                           Twas your ice that thy seemed fake,

                                           Twas a gentle heart thy wished to break.

The air is warm. Humid hot...the type of air which sticks in the throat and seems to clog down your lungs.The sun is gleaming down upon the grey stone walls of a huge grand castle. The gardens are are filled with the sweet sounds of brown birds singing and the blue cloudless skin grins above. Tehya is stood outside, her pale face is flushed with two red cherry cheeks, her blond hair runs down around her face. She leans down beside the rainbow roses and smells the deep fragrance that surrounds her,

"We can pick some and put them in your room Princess?" The gardener,Thomas says with a simple smile. He wears a green flat cap and has sparkling brown eyes that shine beneath his grey hair,

"That would be lovely Mr Rogers!" Tehya stands and wraps her arms around the old wrinkled man. He chuckles and pats her back before the Princess darts away laughing and singing with the calling birds,

"Such a joy!" Thomas grins. Teyha spins in circles her blond hair falling out over her blue silk dress, her bare feet sinking into the luscious layers of green grass. She thinks about checking on the horses or maybe finding her mother, when an ice cold impossible wind whips around her. She stops and stares at the  growing garden. The sun has been covered in a grey clouds that never exised, the birds have hushed inside their trees. The very air seems to have changed, dark and disturbed. It's then a shrill scream pieces the into the wind. The princess darts to the castle's short wall and peers over the edge.Her grey eyes dart out, gazing over at the outer castle walls and, stare at the shirtless men who charge up to the castle. Their hair seems red in the evening light and, blue tattoos swirl their chests. Her heart seems to stop for a moment and the world around her slows down,

"Attack! Guards on front!" A man's voice roars from the castle rooftops,

"Get the Princess inside!" Another scream runs around the garden. Tehyaturnsand see's her mother at the entrance of the castle. Blond waves of golden rushing hair and a green velvet dress spining around the Queen. Teyha can't move...her feet are frozen. She hears the scared sad screams and a flash of red splatters her vision....red running rivers that swell around her feet, like growing seas around an island. Cold cries to the grim-reaper as death awaits everyone around her. She can't run...only watch as the world is torn apart in front of her tearless grey eyes...

"Help me Princess! Help me" The shouts echo around her...tearing her heart into a pure sheet of never breaking ice....
