Tilted dreams of me

MEETING MY DOOM

THE PRINCE POV

TIME 25TH NOVEMBER

PLACE THE DARK PALACE

Staring at my drawing, today's the day, Dova is finally ready with the spell I finally get to walk the earth a normal human with legs and hands and flesh not as a f*****g shadow, I could have waited till the next full red moon to access that power as a prince but waiting isn't my virtue, for the past few nights the news of the promised dream warrior spread across the palace, most demons are scared to give people nightmares anymore others are just nonchalant about the whole situation, but me I knew you were coming, the sandman's warriors have a pattern every ten years a new warrior is born, I was there the night you were brought home in your cradle you looked exceptional, different from any warriors that ever existed and trust me I did my search, you honey like skin and your almond light brown eyes the best in the world then your hair, the white strands of curly hair resting on your face, you had such beautiful hair just looking at it and they were so grown at such age, I was disappointed when I found out that you make it black just to blend in, that night my mission was to give your mom a nightmare, mess with her head and make her mad and unstable then make her believe that you're the problem till she kills you and our problem will be solved for now I guess till another decade but you see I wanted desperately to watch you grow, I watched you every night and then I would come here and draw your face, your little smiles as you sleep, your little cries before you sleep, your parents little conversations and arguments about you, I did it for 10 years then my mother found out and went mad, first I didn't complete my mission, second I was visiting the surface far too often, I hated her nags anything that affected her authority is forbidden so she forbade me from visiting you again and I was stuck here for the past ten years going on stupid errands and attending rituals and after all that all I could come back to my domain to do is think about how long and curly your hair has gotten or how tall you are, or how big your eyes were and if you still cried like a baby every night, most times I draw you using my imagination, thinking about what you would look like as time passed, then yesterday happened... you visited the spiritual realm and the palace immediately felt your presence, my mom quickly sent soldiers to disrupt peace in the valley of peace, the palace was in shables everyone was panicking especially the queen mother, I on the other hand was not panicking, not worried, just excited, was it really you, I offered to help but the queen mother refused

" you are our only chance to beating her, so we can't risk you getting hurt" her words echoing firmly across the red tower, for centuries I've rendered all of the warriors useless and brought victory to our world and this is what she says to me now of all times, I sat there thinking about how bad this could get if you have reached your potential, some time passed and while we were waiting for response from the soliders another distress signal came it was from the fiery realm, the only thing close to hell

" what, call the distress team we need to alert the master"

" no I'll go"

" sit down, you can't go anywhere"

" yes I can and you really want to alert master over some news that we aren't even sure of, it's been long and I think I'm ready now "

I said leaving the tower, she's still scarred from my last battle with the sandman, it was tough one of the greatest battle indeed, I was at the verge of death, my legs completely severed, my head almost crushed bleeding from my nose my mouth, everywhere, and he was lying beside me in similar state with his staff in his hand, the one I stole and used to wipe out his warriors he could have killed me with just words turning to me, completely healed and strong he asked a question that still haunted me

" why "

I didn't know, we don't eat people we just enjoyed seeing them cry, and melt down at some silly dreams, it was like a hubby for us, bringing nightmares wasn't the mission it was severing a soul, making not just the body and mind to break down but the soul too, this is real mission but it's only used for targeted humans.

going down the deep end of dark realms the atmosphere is dense and heavy, my red shigami making it hard to move forward, getting close to the door after summoning it with a quick hand ritual, I could hear faint screams not the normal screaming from hell no this one was new and fresh, another demon would have been delighted I am too, opening the door with a little grin on my face it drops instantly at the sight, of you, sitting there begging for air, your hair was the first thing that met my eyes it always stood out, it was long and beautiful then slowly you graced me the opportunity to see your face, your skin was still perfect, spotless like silk, your eyes were even more beautiful than I remembered the fire didn't even scare it a little bit, a normal human wouldn't have lasted a minute before being ash, I stretched out to you subconsciously I wanted to feel you so desperately but before you could meet my hand you fell down, I wasn't allowed to enter the fiery realm, it was someone else kingdom and demons are very territorial but I didn't think twice with one leg in the realm I lifted you up in my arms, I wanted to feel your skin your weight but I felt nothing, it was like lifting up garments, I was furious, why I would think about that later seeing your face is enough for me, for now I needed to get you out of here, I didn't know much about taking humans back to the surface so I tried some spells but none of it worked, I was more furious, for years I've been so invested in down here that I couldn't do anything up in the surface without asking for help and I didn't want help with you, turning back to where I kept you, you were gone just disappeared,

" Master the queen mother seeks your presence"

I heard some palace guards talk

I didn't say anything I was too angry to talk, walked past them and straight to my room, threatened Dova with his precious pet animal and now I'm waiting for a spell to see you

" sire, the spell,"

" it took you forever"

" I'm so sorry sire, these things take time"

" how much time do I have"

" six hours, approximately six weeks in surface days"

" perfect, he's in cage"

" oh bless you sire"

he hurriedly carried the beast away I hated them... turning back to the spell I couldn't help but grin I'm finally meeting you

" I hope you are happy to see me"
