"What is happening? What kind of things am I seeing?" Sylia mumbled at first but soon her face all of a sudden changed. Her expression looked calm yet dangerous, her eyes were beautiful but the darkness inside them could make anybody scare and shiver in fright.
Clenching her both the hands into a tight fist Sylia was frustrated, annoyed and beyond angry. The sight of her being beaten by a purple skinned lady, the sight of being bullied by everyone, the sight of being scolded by everyone and the most important one where she got a small blurry flashback where she could see a tiny girl with the similar facial features and when compared to hers, Sylia was sure that this little girl was nobody but she herself.
Her expressions were not good right now. She was fuming in rage and wondering that who was the person responsible for all of this. Then suddenly while her eyes were closed instead of seeing darkness, she saw a silhouette of a lady in front of her eyes. Sylia was about to tuck on the woman's clothes when that woman in front turned her head slightly to give a slide glance to Sylia.
Sylia's eyes widened. This woman... didn't she looked exactly like her mother? Sylia wondered whether this woman in front of her was her own mother or somebody else. Since spells and illusions were not a difficult thing but still making such a non differentiable illusion? This seemed quite difficult. Sylia wondered what kind of magic this was.
"Mom... is it you?" Sylia mumbled in a low voice but instantly she understood the moment she saw the black ring on the lady's left ring finger. Her mother never wore any kind of black rings instead she wore a white ring which was signifying peace. The white resembled peace as well as calmness and harmony. While the black which was on the lady's left ring finger was responsible for something bad... something horrible or more precisely death.
Before Sylia could get any response her eyes flew wide open. She looked at the unfamiliar ceiling and then the unfamiliar room inside which she was. Her instincts as well as her senses instantly became highly alerted.
While Yama who was in the secluded room stood up and was heading towards the entrance to get out of this place.
Sylia who was sitting on bed heard faint footsteps coming towards her and she instantly focused all her hearing senses towards the direction from where the voice was coming. Finding the source direction of the voice, Sylia instantly became alert.
Sylia adjusted her position such that when the person would arrive and come out from that direction she would be ready to attack. While sitting on one knee her other leg was crossed while both of her hands were on the bed with her palms giving her body the support.
Yama was walking with his hands at his back and his hair loosely swaying. This was his own personal cave room and nobody apart from him was there except for Sylia who was right now in a deep slumber and there was no chance for her to wake up till morning so he was relaxed and had kept his guard down. Regarding Sylia… this was what Yama was aware of and completely unaware about the fact that Sylia was already awake and what was coming for him just after he would be leaving this room.
Sylia's heart was racing, not because of fear but because of excitement. After all this was her first time being in this form and just after waking up she was going to have an amazing adventure. Now the coming one was going to be an adventure or maybe something else... Sylia wasn't sure about it.
As soon as Yama came out from the secluded room and closed the road behind, and had just crossed the partition curtain when something suddenly came on top of him making him stagger and in the next moment he fall back on the ground. Unable to register what exactly happened as everything happened in just a couple of seconds the Yama was astonished as well as shocked. His other hand immediately got ahold on his sword which was on his left side and he instantly tried to grab the person's neck who was sitting on top of him. However sensing his movements Sylia had already locked both of his hands using her legs as she pressed his body on the ground using her hands and body weight. Even though her actual body was weak and had barely some weight, her spells were powerful, so powerful that the Yama could actually feel a heavy rock on top of him.
When Yama opened his eyes and looked at the person who was the culprit behind his falling on the ground and the way he was being pressed down, his eyes widened. But there were no traces of shock on his face after all he was a master in masking all of his emotions and bottling them up Inside him.
"You... when did you wake up?" Yama's voice travelled inside Sylia's ears and to her surprise his voice did not seemed cold. In fact to her it was quite gentle which was again a surprising shock for her.
