Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Manda opened her eyes slowly. Her eyes focused. She got up and looked around.

One thing was for sure she wasn't in the cave anymore. She was in a big room.

The walls were gold decorated with green painted ivy. There was a large desk in a

corner of the room. It faced a window. There were two candles on each side of the

desk.

"Was I blown into the past?" she asked in wonder. Something on the desk caught

her eye. She walked over to the desk and found a big leather book bound by

golden vines. She picked up the odd book and opened it. It was badly worn off:

Manda closed the journal when she heard footsteps from the door to the right. She

dove under a bed that she had not seen before. Everything went by so fast a girl

appeared. She was outside. Wings spread behind her. A scepter appeared from

the sky. Shadows appeared and ambushed the girl. Light shot out of the scepter.

A man appeared behind her with a sword. Tears appeared out of the girls eyes.

She heard the girl murmer "Dionxard.." Manda closed her eyes not wanting to see

what would happen next... Quietness entered her ears and the screams of war

ended. She opened her eyes to see that she was in the abyss. Though her match

some how had stayed lit on the ground. Was it a dream?, she wondered. She

looked into her hand . She was clutching the Journal...

"No..It isn't..." She looked around and saw everyone else on the ground

unconscious. But she had a feeling to let them not sleep. With that thought she made

a fire.
