Victoria floated in the dark..memories slide through her mind..intangible and hard to grasp as for.. a few stood out. The first time she met Gabe..Their first kiss..his proposal under the ancient oak tree they carved their initials when they were 14..... the night he broke her heart..and most of all the night her family sent her away. She was 18 years old and her family sent her into the human world, broke hearted and alone...apparently for her safety. Tears burned behind her closed eyes as the memories mixed with nightmares of dark menacing eyes and the sound of many legs scuttling in the dark. She screamed as the sound got louder and no mater how fast she ran they kept gaining. Her parents had warned her for years, the spiders knew what powers the dust in their wings had and would do anything to gain it. Unfortunately for her, her bloodline was pure, the dust the best seen in over a thousand years...the explanation for. Her parents, their understanding voices slid away. Thrashing in her sleep she was quieted by the sound of a low husky voice singing her favourite song as a child. To be fair Over the rainbow just sounded odd sung by a grown man but as a child it had always helped her sleep. as she drifted off to the song she loved.
