* Destiney got blocked out and unconscious.

   

"Hello!"
"Can you hear me?!"

"Destiney darling, it's time to wake up now."

"Rise up Averen."
"Remember who you are!"

"I'm sorry... I failed protecting you."
"I know this is confusing, but you need to remember."

"Break that curse! Shatter that barrier! Avenge us all!"

"Those bad nightmares won't take over you any longer!"

"Fight Back!"

"Show your true power! Soar your wings open!"

"I know you still have it in you."
"Move forward. Rediscover who you trully are and what you're meant to be."

"I love you from the deepest of my heart, your aunt.. Miss Featheren."
"I hope you understand.. and forgive me."

"Wish you all the good luck sweetie. I'm leaving..for now. We're counting on you!"

"My deepest love, your aunt Eleanora."

"Farewell princes Averen Heartking!"
"Till we meet again."

    

*After the block out message, she regained conscious.

"Look! She's awake!"
"Destiney, are you alright!?"

I... what?

Miss Featheren? My aunt?
Mom? Mom is...

Aunt... Eleanora?

Aunt Eleanora!!

"Hey! Hello.. Destiney can you hear me?"

Who is this babbling parrot over my head?! It's too noisy.

     Slightly tilting my numb head threatning to fall back, I blindly asked almost in a whisper, hoping she would answer me.

"Mom?"

     Instead a sorrowful voice mumbled back, "I'm sorry Destiney.. it's Leo. Please just try raising your head. Open your eyes!"

Why does it feel so difficult to think strait? Just get up already!!
   

"Leo?"

"Yes!! It's me Destiney."

Okay, not a parrot.
Just a fuzzy wuzzy lion drouling over my face.
He for one seems delighted to be recognized.

     
     I pried my eyes open and it burnt like Hell! Moving my head was not an option.

     There was this little.. thing?.. by my side. I guess it was the one who called for Leo when I regained conscious.

     I eyed the over-grown lion... or so I think I did? I wasn't able to see strait, but by the general look on his face I could just tell...

Something bad happened.
