Red Eyes

The moment those fiery red eyes opened, the whole place froze. Silja even felt her heart stopped at that moment. Some familiar feelings of fear were evoked in her heart. She, who was turned aside with her hand extended, couldn't move an inch as she heard that subtle movement of that presence far away on the high platform.

"Why do you keep disturbing my peace," A low, familiar voice rang in her ears. Illusion broke, and she remembered where she had seen this place before. 

Silja moved her body slowly in the direction of the sound. Her body was shivering, yet her eyes looked straight into the dark, and she could see those blood-red eyes with fiery orbs glowing like the volcano she had seen earlier.

In the dark, those eyes directly reflected in hers with the golden red glow and a moment passed as the atmosphere remained still.

"I….Did…didn't mean to," Came a very low whisper from her mouth.
