The Demon Inside

Arya thought it was a ship but to her surprise it was a vision placed in her head to prevent her from seeing where she really was. Knowing this wasn't by accident but she believed her powers had something to do with. She could hear someone talking in the distance but could not make out if it was someone she knew or not. She was not in chains nor seemed to be harmed in an way. Strange to have been kidnapped but not harmed or bound. She started to think about what had happened before she blacked out but nothing came to her just yet. Arya closed her eyes and wished she could just know where she was and who had taken her and why. A voice from behind her whispered into her ear and said "you already know". Yes Arya knew Üther had taken her but she did not know why. As she began to realize that she was in a bedroom the image of a ship had disappeared. She wanted to see Üther and ask him a million questions and perhaps even slap him in the face a couple thousand times. Her head hurt from the drugs and her body from well whatever else they did to her. Üther soon entered the room where she was and began to talk as if he had done nothing wrong. Arya was so furious with him. There was nothing he could say to make her feel any different. Üther let her know that she was intended to be his wife. Along time ago Arya's mother had made a promise to Üther's father. She had promised her first born female to wed the heir of Xeon. Xeon is a realm in which demons live and rule. The idea was to make a peaceful alliance with Xeon to prevent war on Gala. This idea all ended when Preveak got involved and to this means began a bitterness between all planets alike. Arya know understood why she was taken but still didnt like the idea of being used in this so called game of chess. War was tricky and she was just learning how to play the game with the cards she was dealt. Üther wondered if she knew about her powers all of them? Did she know who her father was? Has she seen him since she has been home on Gala? These are the questions he wanted answered before anything else. So he began to ask them slowly and the answers he got were unbelievably horrible. Arya said her father was human and was dead. She also stated that she had no other powers then her blood being able to destroy the red horizon of pollution. Üther thought to himself...she ...she had no idea who or what she was! He needed time before he told her everything. Arya was sent two maids to help with her needs. No need to know their names she will only be here overnight she thought. They bathed her and dressed her in a light pink silk gown. They took her hair and braided it up against her scalp tightly so her eyes narrowed. A little blush and some pink gloss was put on her face. She was ready to have dinner with Üther and his family. To her surprise she was the only one dinning with him besides his brother Balish. Balish looked at Arya as if she was the next thing on his dinner plate. He was taken back by her beauty and. wanted her all to himself. Üther could see the lust in his brothers eyes and wondered what else Arya had control over..his mind and heart was not his own anymore. She has no idea how to control her powers and does not even know she is half demon. What else could she do? Arya spoke clearly to them both. She wanted to know everything about her and her family. Arya realized that whatever she learned it was going to change her forever. That night she was invited to go to a party that was being held by someone of great importance. All she was told was to dress according to regulation whatever that meant. Her maids had sent out of realm for fabric to make a gown. The fabric that was to come in was the color silver and satin at that. It was to be well fitted at the bust and waist. The rest flowed beautifully to her ankle length. It was a quick stitch and well made. The gown was elegant and she wore it like a goddess. The choices of hairstyle were limited. Women who were single were to wear their hair down and to the side left or right was acceptable. Also a single rose was to be adorned anywhere in the hair. Also long gloves to the elbow were a necessary item on the list to wear. Why so fancy was all she could think. Who was this person who was holding this party? Why was she invited? The thought of meeting people she didn't know made her nervous. Arya wanted to go to the party but her thoughts seemed to be taking control of her mind. The whispers in her head were getting louder. It was time to face the facts she was not human. If not human what was she... and could she live with what she was? After getting Arya ready the maids left her alone while waiting for her escort. A knock on the door and then entered someone she didn't expect. Üther was to be her escort. This made him responsible for anything she did or said. He was taking full responsibility for her actions. The good and the bad. She was all of a sudden confident and calm. They got into a carriage that one could only dream of. Color of gold and black shined in the moonlight as the clock struck midnight the carriage to off to their destination...unknown.
