The Devil's Daughter

All I see is black nothing else, no noise, nothing. Then i feel the heat, then I see the flames, then a house. I don't recognise the house. Next I'm in a room with a child, she is asleep. She looks to be about 6. The fire is starting to intensify. She is still asleep but it looks like she is having a nightmare . She is thrashing around and whimpering. She just keeps shouting

"No, no leave me alone, don't touch me, go away."

I start to reach for her but before I touch her there is a figure bending at her side. He is huge atleast 6ft 6 broad shoulders. Must be a man he is wearing a black hooded cape. Who wears capes these days. He picks her up. She is so tiny in his arms. She is crying now. He is telling her it will be ok no one can hurt her. He will protect her. He will always be watching.

As he is rushing out the door he looks straight at me. But it's like he isn't seeing me at all. But what makes all the blood drain from my face is those eyes. Purple, purple eyes i will never forget.

Then everything is black again. I'm getting so annoyed I start to yell.

"Hello? What the hell is going on? somebody? anybody? where am I?"

Nothing, no answer. I'm not surprised actually.

Last thing I remember was finding Travis and Sandy in bed together then the rage, then the burning. Oh my god. The fire, the screaming, I must be dead. Nothing else can explain it. I must be dead and have gone to hell. How did the fire start? I swear I was on fire. Did it come from me? No it couldn't that s**t doesnt happen in real life. I guess it doesn't matter now if I'm dead.

Next thing I know more fire, another house. Burning, Rage, Anger, why am I feeling all these. I'm now in a bedroom again this time the girl looks to be 12 or so. Again she is thrashing and screaming.

"No, no leave me alone, dont touch me, go away."

I start to look around the room. A black desk and chair to the left of the door with a stack of books and a pen holder. Lots of stuffed animals on the bay window. Drawings of a dragon above the bed. I look back down to the bed to see the same quilt cover I had when I was 12. A giant purple and blue dream catcher with 5 yellow and orange feathers hanging from the bottom. My room? My bed?

The hooded man is now by her side brushing the side of her face trying to calm her down. Again he is telling her she is safe no one can hurt her he will protect her.

My head starts to spin and im now in front of Travis and Sandy again. I can feel the anger and rage then I can see the flames around the room. I can't hear anything. My vision starts to go black again, I'm falling to the floor again. Someone grabs me just before I hit the ground, I feel electric sparks up my arms where im being held. I try to focus on who is holding me. Then I see them his eyes, that purple i would remember anywhere. It makes my heart race.

Then I hear the same words he has been telling that girl. "Its ok your safe now, no one can hurt you i will protect you."

Just before it all goes black again, I realise I am that girl.
