Revenge of the fallen

Rescue

The moonlight and the silver blaze in Lake was beautiful. A familiar smell, smell of roses! I was walking by the lake, my mind was searching for the place where this beautiful aroma was coming from but my heart was leading me as if it already knew where to go! I expected a garden full of roses but I was led towards a house boat. It was a beautiful structure with some antiques hanging on the sideways. I could see a dim golden light and the aroma was getting stronger. I opened the door and saw a beautiful room full of paintings. Strangely there were no roses, not even on the paintings! This looks like an art gallery, every painting has a girl in it. Her face is not clear and she is raising her hands towards moon as if she is bathing in moonlight. There is an opening at the roof of the houseboat which gives a clear view of sky! This is so beautiful..... "Wuf wuff wuff"

I was snapped out of my beautiful dream !! I was terrified!! A dog again!! I opened my eyes and saw an adorable puppy staring at me and licking my face! I pushed it aside and tried to get up. My head was aching real bad and my left hand had a big plaster on, it felt like the bloody dog had ripped my arms off! I was so mad at the bloody dog that I wanted to kick the puppy too but it was looking at me with those beautiful puppy eyes and all my anger was gone in a minute.

Wait! Where am I? I looked around and it was a luxurious room. I was on a round soft bed with a blue silky spread, I love blue!! Everything in the room was blue. There were paintings on the wall. A blue soft carpet where the puppy was still sitting and looking at me, expectantly. I tried to get out of the bed but my arms were hurting real bad. I could hear someone speaking outside, I opened the door and saw a grand hallway with great paintings and beautiful articrafts along. Wow!! Am I in a palace or something.... What is this place? Looks so bright, grand and sort of royal. I walked towards the voices towards a room near the hallway. As I walked closer, I could smell the familiar scent of roses. The door was slightly open, I could see Paul. He looked upset and full of guilt, as if he has done something wrong! "I trusted you Paulo! You can't be goofing around until the power of moon awakens! What if something had happened? I cannot wait for another ten thousand years in agony and pain.... You get that?" It was clear Paul was being scolded by someone for something but I wasn't focussing on the words but that voice! It was so manly, caring yet painful. It was so familiar, I wanted to barge in but something was pulling me back. Just then I realised someone changed my clothes!!! I was wearing a soft and beautiful blue satin night gown which the puppy was clearly destroying by pulling me back... "Shoooo!! Go away!" I tried to get rid of the puppy when Paul came out of the room.

"Hey!! How you feeling now!"

"Alive!" I was angry and blunt. Is he the one who changed my clothes, I was boiling with anger and I wanted to rip him apart.

"Hello, Dolcenea" I turned back to find Shoba! I was kind of releived and also confused! Is this her place? Where am I?

"I changed your clothes. You were a mess and that arm was really nasty." Shoba said with a not-so-happy smile. The puppy was still playing with my gown and I gave it a piercing look. Suddenly he stepped aside with a pity look and sat down staring at me as if he was sad that I scowled! Wow! I can understand the puppy's emotions and he can understand me too with just a look or maybe it's just in my head.

I turned back to Shoba, "Where am I? What happened! How did you guys find me?"

"Alright, you have lots of questions but now you are not in good health. I want you to take rest and relax while I explain." She took me back to the room. Suddenly my eyes fell on the closed door behind. Who was Paul speaking to? Who is in there? Every tiny bit of life in my body was asking me to kick the door open and get in, I was longing to see the unknown behind a freaking door!
