Meeting a dreamon
I run as fast as possible through the woods, jumping over fallen trees and dodging bushes and branches. They start to get closer but I’m outrunning them by a lot. I see in the distance a brick wall. why is there a brick wall in the forest…? Never mind that I need to hide because it is blocking my path. I jump up on to a tree and climb to a thick limb and put my hands over my mouth so they can’t hear me. I hear them run a little bit past my tree and then stop, they look at the wall and freeze… “we can’t be here” one of them whisper “ we have to go or they’ll kill us” another one says “too late” someone says jumping down from the wall his voice is different then the other three men that were chasing me, I look over the edge a little bit, just enough to see a tall figure with a red cloak, a blue crown with black horns and tail standing in front of the three men. The three men scream and run away. Once the screams fade the tall demon man turns to the tree I’m in and speaks in a soft tone “ you can come down kid” I sit there in shock, how did he know I was up here??? I slowly come down from the tree and stand next to it, if anything happens I’ll just climb back up and jump from tree to tree to get away. The man looks me up and down with a worried face. “Where are you parents m8?” He finally says. “I don’t have any, and if I did there probably dead.” I replied with a straight face. Now the man looks even more worried, we sit there in silence for who knows how long and I start up another conversation with him. “ soo what are you exactly?” The man snaps out of his thoughts at the question, “oh I’m a Dreamon” the man say’s happily. Oh shoot… he’s a Dreamon, the most powerful hybrid in the world. “So what are you?” The man asks “I’m just a demon.” “Hmm”. The man stands there for a moment then says “would you like to live with me?” I’m stunned by the question I sit there for a moment… it would be nice to have a family and not live alone “umm sure, if you insist” “ great!” The man reply’s “get on my back” he says as dark wings sprout out of his back. I walk over and climb on his back “hold on m8” i hold on tight to his back when he says that, he flaps his wings really hard and shoots us into the air. We stop halfway and just start to glide, he turns his head a little bit, just enough to see me “you ok back there?” He says with a smile “y-yah” I reply we stay gliding for a little bit until we reach a huge Castle, the man glides down inside the castle. The guards at there posts bow when they see us. We land and I hop off his back, he folds his wings up neatly behind him. We walk into the castle, I look around in awe to see a bunch of blue decorations in different shades. We walk down there for a while until we reach a big dark oak door. Two guards open the doors revealing a throne at the other end of the room and lots of maids cleaning the room. We walk to a group of three maids, all of them turn and bow to the man. “Hello, I hope you don’t mind but could you get… actually I never got your name?” The man turns to me “umm I don’t have a name…” I answered looking down to the floor. “Well what about Alexander, Alex for short?” The man asks “yah that sound nice” I smile at him, he smiles back then turns back to the maids. “As I was saying could you get Alex fitted and measured for some new clothes and a crown?” “Yes your majesty” all three maids answer in sync. He then turns to two other maids “ and you two can you please get a room ready for him?” “Yes your majesty” “ what is you favorite color?” He asks me “umm a dark red or black” “ you heard him” the maids nodded and put what they were doing down and ran out to get my room ready, the other three walked over to me and bowed “your highness, please follow me.” I nodded and followed, waving the man goodbye. I followed the maids to where they measured my body and head and started making calls. The two maids from earlier walk in with some fabric squares asking witch shade of red and black I’d want for my bed, curtains, rugs, towels, everything. An hour later I’m escorted to my room by one of the maids. “ here’s your room your highness” the maid bows “your personal butler, maid and guard will be here soon to introduce themselves.” “ oh alright, thank you” “my pleasure” the maid bows and walks off. I walk into my room, it is big and open spaced with one big bed in the middle of the room up against the wall, a window covered by curtains right above the bed, a night stand on both sides of the bed. Two doors on opposite sides of the room and a desk next to the door on the left with a lamp. I sit there in awe for a minute before I hear a knock at the door, that must be the maid, butler, and guard. “Come in” I say, a few seconds later what seems to be a butler walks in with two other people behind him. They line up in a straight line in front of me and bow “hello your highness” they all rise “I am Oliver, your personal guard.” Oliver has brown hair and brown eyes with somewhat tan skin. “I am Elisabeth, your personal maid.” Elisabeth has red ish hair that is in a nice little bun, she has bright blue eyes and light skin. Plus she had something soft in her hands. “And I’m Mike, your personal butler.” Mike had blond hair that is tied into a small ponytail in the back, he has green eyes and light skin. “Oh well hi, I’m Alex.”
They all bow again, Elisabeth then walks up to me and hands me something soft. “These are your pajamas.” Elisabeth smiles, Oliver leaves the room and shuts the door behind him. “ I shall start up your bath now.” Mike says while opening the other door near my closet. When he opens it, it reveals a huge bathroom, with tiled floors and hair products. There was a big tub in the middle of the bathroom. Mike walked over to it and turned on the water. Feeling for the warmth he then takes his hand out of the water and puts a plug in the drain for the tub to hold the water. He puts bubbles in the water and shows me which soap is which and leaves me to clean myself. I take my clothes off and hop in the tub. The water is warm and nice, I wash my hair with the bubbles in the tub and rinse it with the water. After that I just sit there and close my eyes. It’s been awhile since I’ve had a proper bath, and it feels amazing. I spent a good hour in the tub before I got out. There was a towel next to the tub, I grab it and dry off. The towel was soft and it was also a nice deep red. I grabbed my pajamas and changed into them. They were so soft! After I was done changing I walked out the bathroom to be met with Elisabeth sorting my clothes in my closet. She turned to look at me and smiled. “Did you have a nice bath my prince?” I nodded. She finally closed the closet and grabbed a hair brush. “Do you want me to brush your hair for you my prince?”, “Yes please, that would be nice” I replied. Elisabeth pulled out a chair from the bathroom for me to sit on, I sat down and let her brush my hair. She brushed through my tangled hair so delicately while humming a tune. I closed my eyes listening to the tune while Elisabeth continued to brush my hair. After a while she finally finished and tapped me on the shoulder. I turned to look at her, she was smiling with a sympathetic look on her face. “We should get you to bed my prince, you have a long day tomorrow.” She said in a soft tone. I nodded and stood up from the chair and followed her to my bed. I lay down as Elisabeth turns the bathroom lights off. She then walks to the door and opens it, “Goodnight my prince.” Elisabeth then turns off the lights and shuts the door softly. I lay in my huge bed as I think about all that happened today, my eyes start to feel heavy as I drift off to sleep.
