Chapter 1 - The Beginning

I was standing once again in a room with an majestic throne that I keep on dreaming about, it was decorated with simple design, but with a powerful aura. I watched the room with wonder, which I had been in, many times before, everything seemed to scream royalty, because of the gold details on the floor which was transparent, and all the details everywhere in this room that seemed to be made by a masterwork craftsman. Then after admiring the place,in the next moment a figure appeared next to the throne, and as it moved towards me, I began to lose my sight as the figure got nearer, when the figure just was few steps from being near me, t the figure was shrouded in shadow but I could tell that it had the form of a women. ´´ Soon`` the figure spoke towards me with a voice of longing and somehow I could feel a lot of affection from this figure, then everything began to fade away, and I got pulled away from the room, and into the darkness once again.

I slowly opened my eyes, there were people around me, and they seemed to be chatting with each other, which would be a given, I was after all in a classroom. I stretched out my body after falling asleep in the middle of class, and yawned a bit, which caught the attention of the classmate sitting next to me, ´´ how was the nap?´´ a dark haired girl spoke with a smile on her face.It was Valerie, and she was the only one in the class that would talk to him in a casual way and even smiled when she spoke towards me, she was also the idol of the entire school, and also very talented in all subjects,she was also the the number one beauty in school and even got model offers, he wondered why she was so friendly towards me, and I tried to remember the reason for her to be so nice towards me, but I really could not figure it out. I then noticed that she was waiting for me to speak, ´´ i guess so´´ I told her in a tired voice that also indicate that i really did not want to talk. Valerie smiled even more at my respond, which caused me to think even more for the reason, I could see that she adored me, but still i could not remember why she did. The lesson went by with me and her talking until the end of class, well it was mostly her speaking and me listening. ´´ class is finish for today,remember to do your homework for next week, and have a good weekend´´ our teacher spoke, then everyone began to pick up the homework from the table in front of our teacher and walked out of the classroom.

When I reached my locker, Valerie suddenly appeared beside me with a smile, ´´ Hey Arthur, if you are not busy right now, wanna come to my place?´´ she spoke and I could see she was a bit nervous for some reason. The classmates all around froze up at her suggestion, and some had their jaws dropped. ´´ I got to do some errands, so I have to decline, maybe next time´´ I said, which caused a uproar around us, with jealous looks and some even glared daggers at me. It was a first for them to see that Valerie asked someone over to her place, it was mostly the other way around and she would kindly decline their offer.

When I was about to walk away, that's when Valerie pulled my shirt, ´´ can you take me along on your errands?´´ she said with her bright smile. ´´ Sorry but its personal errands´´ I said with tone that indicate that she couldn't follow me. I then walked away, leaving a stunned surrounding.

I took the bus towards the city, when the bus arrived at the destination, I went off the bus and continue to move towards an apartment complex and went inside, I walked upstairs until the place where the apartment was in. I unlocked the door with the key, and went in, it was quiet and no sound of anyone greeting me a welcome home. I didn't find it strange, when I lived alone in this apartment, my parents had bought it, and told me that I could move in,they would go on with the idea that I suggested to them, that they should have this arrangement, they traveled a lot, as they were doing business everywhere in the world, and they usually show up few times to check on me too see that i'm fine and hang out.

I then sat down on the sofa and began to think of the dream that repeatedly appears, I thought how it was no coincidence that it repeats itself, but no matter what I could think of, it really did not make me any brighter by thinking about it, and I waved away like usual, instead of pondering anymore of the dream, I went towards the bathroom, to clean myself up, and in the mirror my face was shown, there really were nothing special about mine appearance except that I had snow white hair, . I had been born with white hair and the doctors that I visited did not know the cause nor the reason they came with the conclusion that it was not dangerous, and the other peculiar thing was the color of my eyes, on the right side its color was crimson red and the other was azure blue, so it was quite the sight.

After cleaning myself, I went towards the door and walked out after locking the door, I looked at the clock and saw that it was six o'clock in the evening and hurried my steps. I went towards the center of the city and after walking for a little, I reached my destination, which was a bookstore and I went inside. I walked past the bookstore clerks with a smile and then went past the a corner and into the employers room to change clothing to the work uniform. I was working in this bookstore as a way to spend my time and because I liked books, so I could really just sit and read here, and there was really not many customers even thought it was in the center of the city, I noticed the people walking by without even looking into the bookstore. Still I liked being here and it has a relaxing atmosphere, that seemed to comfort the mind and make everyone that enters relaxed. I walked around checking the books that were in the shelves, to see if they were in order, The evening went by without anything happening, there were no customers, I didn't mind it thought, after all I own this bookstore so it wont go down no matter what, money was no problem as this store were more like a place for me to learn and relax after all.

When it was time for the store to close I changed into my ordinary clothing and waved towards the clerks a goodbye, and went home, it was eerie quiet but nothing else was out of the normal. I arrived at the complex and went inside, as I walked upstairs I thought of when my parents would visit again, the apartment was seen and I unlocked the door and went inside. I yawned and looked at the time, it was ten o'clock and I went towards my room to sleep, and I feel somehow a bit too tired than ordinary, So i instantly fell asleep the moment i laid on my bed with the blanket over me.

The next moment i appeared in the throne room again, this time it was somehow different. and the figure that i saw before was not there this time, the room was not majestic as it was before, this time everything seemed to be collapsing and the throne was cracked in half. Then I felt someone standing next to me, and I tried to move my body and head to see who it was, but it was in vain, I could not move at all, only await what the person would do. ´´The time has come, be brave or despair at the oncoming world´´ I heard a bewitching voice say and I began to close my eyes, almost like I was about to fall into eternal sleep, I only felt a calm flowing through me, and somehow I knew that I should accept the calmness and give in to the tiredness. As I almost closed my eyes i could see a beautiful woman standing in front of me in a raven black dress and she had snow white hair and pale skin but I, could not see her face except I knew that she was smiling with affection towards me.
