Chapter 10 - EXTRA CHAPTER!

I woke up at 5am. Which is weird as I usually sleep in. I wasn't sleepy but rather quite energetic. After washing up and getting ready it was already 6am. I was confident that no one was awake so I went out for a walk. I walked past the stained glass window not noticing the changes and went outside.

The dried leaves were fresh and vines enveloped the castle. I was awfully confused of how the environment was suddenly so alive and lively. I am sure when we arrived it was withered. I went to the garden.

The garden was an immense oasis with a variety of flowers, trees, and bushes. The sun shines warmly and the clouds hover around. It was not too cold nor was it too hot. The widest path leads to a fountain in the center of the courtyard.

This marble fountain has a wide round base and a ten-foot tall peak at the apex of the fountain. The water runs sparklingly clear and shines under sunlight. The tulips wither and die in the fall, to be reborn in the spring, The daffodils dance in the wind and the exotic plants intrigue the eyes of their beholders. In a word it was magical.

I walked around and saw strange yet expensive statues. Some animals like rabbits and lions. Whereas some mythical creatures like dragons and mermaids. Their eerie bead-like eyes seemed to be watching every inch or the garden, never allowing unwanted visitors.

I saw a maze but didn't dare enter. Butterflies flutter around me as if protecting me. The unusual experience made me return. Oblivious to the purple haired man in black and all the bead-like eyes of the garden watching me.
