A small, dark shape flew past Iellia and straight towards one of the women who had run out of her house. The woman screamed, and held her hands up in front of her face, as if to shield herself from whatever it was.

The scene skipped again, and Iellia was standing in a castle corridor. Someone screamed, and as Iellia turned to see who it was she was confronted by a young man with glowing green eyes. “We’ve been waiting for you,â€? he had hissed, before dissolving into a dark shape and flying towards her. Iellia had screamed, and the next thing she knew, she was sitting upright in bed.

Ugh, Iellia shook herself, trying to rid her mind of the last remnants of the dream, I have to remind myself to never drink that much coke again – especially not before I go to bed.

Something suddenly slammed into the window outside, and Iellia started. She climbed out of bed and walked over to the window. She peered outside, and at first she saw nothing.

Then she noticed the dark shape on the ground below.
