The moon dance

Chapter 7 dream

I appear in a field unsure of my destination. There are trees surrounding me, I-I feel at peace… I walk further admiring the trees and flowers aligning the field. I must be careful where I walk and avoid damaging the gorgeous flowers scattered throughout the ground. a sudden breeze picks up, making everything even more peaceful. I look up and the sky is getting darker. “It’s sunset, my favorite time of day, the time where I feel most at peace.” I sit on the ground and listen to my surroundings enjoying my peace. When the sky gets darker and darker I don't move. I just stay still and watch the time go by that is until midnight hits. There is a tall shadow moving and coming out from the trees it looks almost magical the way it’s moving is graceful. How am I not scared at the moment? How can I just watch a mysterious shadow turn and move towards me with no fear? Though it isn't worrying I strangely still feel at peace. It move closer and closer starting to show its fur and then the flowers lit. This place is magical, the shadow pulls its head towards me . . . it has black fur as dark as the night that took over the sky. a moon on its head i-it’s glowing? It opened its eyes revealing eyes as red as blood showing kindness within its eyes. the most beautiful little wolf, you are so cute I reach out and pat its head it starts rubbing its head on my hand wanting even more attention. “You are quite a cute thing” I say playfully. The texture of its fur is soft . . . comforting, it then starts running around me to encourage play- “WAKE UP ELOISE!!!!!!” “w-what?” my eyes open wa-was it all a dream? “Your father wishes to speak to you.” oh right… I get up to change into an elegant dress and make my way to my fathers study. “The moon dance is in less than two weeks. Next week you are going to have to prepare for it more than avoiding it. Is that understood?” “...yes father”.
