The rain poured down. The skies were cloudy and pitch black. The wind howled and tore at her jacket as she ran down the old, abandoned road. She hurried, hoping to get home before the rain worsened. A spark of lightning lit off in the distance causing her to look around.
She had stopped at the gate of an old, long abandoned castle. She gazed up at its windows as if remembering or searching for something.
Lightning flashed nearby and thunder clapped just overhead causing the woman to startle.
The rain started to pour down harder. The woman ran down the road.
Once more lightning flashed causing the castle to be lit from behind. On the walls stood fully armored guards waiting for a battle that would never come.
