The Heart Of A Beast

My cloak flutters in the wind as I watch my people fight against the humans. War has always been apart of Emrila city, its getting hard to survive now and watch people fall." Mistress Skye" someone says. I turn around to see one of my guards by the door, he bows respectively before speaking." You need to evacuate to the city" he says." I'll be fine, I can fight Travis" I reply. Father taught me how to fight with a sword before he was killed. That's mostly why were at war with the humans." Sorry but it won't be safe here much longer. Your the only one that can be in control of the Night creatures...we need you." Why does he remind me every time?" Fine" I say. He smiles and I follow him downstairs and outside the back of the castle, I pull the hood of my cloak over my head to hide my body from the sunlight, if the sun touches me the dorment creature in my body will awaken, then everyone will be in trouble. Travis takes me to the horse barn." Pick which one you desire Mistress" he says. I look around the barn and find a pretty white horse and walk over, Travis helps me with the saddle before hopping on the animal." I know a place we can go that will be safe" he explains. It doesn't take us long to get into the woods and away from the castle, the sun soon starts to set and I remove my cloaks hood. We ride for a few more minutes till we get to the city, unnaturally the streets are empty I notice Travis get off his horse so I do to, once were off they run." What are they scared of?" I ask." I don't know...but it can't be good" he replies. I follow him down the dark streets till we come to a nice looking house. What is this place? Travis knocks on the door, after a few seconds a blonde haired woman comes to the door." Hello Ms. Carter" Travis says." Travis dear, its nice to see you. Who's your friend?" She asks." Her name is Skye" he explains." Well anyway both of you can come in" she says. I glance at Travis and he gives me a trusting smile. He's my guard... I should trust him. We walk into the house and I look around the living room, the furnishers are polished an nice looking, theres a fireplace on the wall under a flat screen TV, it seems big enough for a small family.
