Matthew's wolf form runs up to me, a trail of red glow from around him looks like delicate ribbons of light following him, in his mouth he holds a pale green trail of light comes from a canary he has hostage in his mouth. He bows and releases the canary it turns into a wolf and attacks Matthew then kills him. The red tint stays around Matthew's body meaning while he died in here he is still living in reality and still observing in the dream plane. The wolf turns to me and I guess who it is and shoot up in bed coming out of the dream and back to reality.
Somehow someone was able to breach me and Matthew's dream plane connection which was terrifying. I had to go to dinner and I was dreading knowing what tomorrow would bring. Reluctantly I get up and dress differently for dinner. I don't have a lot of things to take to the Earth Kingdom to keep myself sane I realize as I head to the dining hall.
When I enter the dining room chosen for this evenings dinner I see I'm right on time. Both Prince Nico and Prince Matthew are already sitting. There is an empty chair in between them and as I go to sit I hand Matthew the first half of the written seasonal cycle. He looks at me with all his questions flashing through his face and I just shake my head. I'm more shookith than he is and I don't want anyone to know that I'm scared.
"Your mother tells me you are going to leave tomorrow," the King says to me. My dad is always busy so for him to bless us with his presence today. I hope he doesn't disapprove of me leaving for a whole month without any of our guards going. It was decided by the Wind Kingdom that I would be safe and that if they had any doubts about my safety they said they'd send for the General himself.
"That is true, Father, Mother says you approve, so I am grateful to be given this opportunity to serve our Kingdom," I say knowing that it sounds real enough in my head. He gets up and comes to me placing a hand on my shoulder he hands me a katana. I bow my head and accept the gift. Then the chefs usher in our meal. It is a grand meal and I'm made slightly happy.
"You should retire soon my Dear, You need your beauty sleep, you also need to be up early so you can get to the Earth Kingdom as early as possible," My parents chide. In turn, I excuse myself and go to sleep dreading my own sliver of excitement to leave.
I wake up after sleeping like a baby to the gentle sound of rain. The servants have already prepared to take me to the Earth Kingdom. The carriage is all kinds of anti-wetness. I get in and one side has a full size plush comfortable mattress and a bench on one wall has a picnic basket on it, it's overflowing with delicious colorful foods. I get settled on the edge of the bed and wave goodbye to everyone. The look on their faces are long but happy for me, only Prince Matthew looks very concerned and he sends me a fire message as the carriage begins to pull away. His message says "Please don't kill anyone. Just kidding, kill someone who deserves it. I sent a warrior with you as added protection, the guards your parents sent are good but an extra never hurts. Good luck -The Best Best Friend Ever,".
The carriage jolts and lurches and suddenly comes to an adrupt halt. There is a lot of loud commotions and shouting when suddenly the door flies open.
