Masquerade

2. The forever sleeping serpent

This evening the party will start.
Elyna was in her own room.
She tried her mom's dress.
'It fit's perfect' she saw her father in the reflection of the mirror.
'You think'?
He nodded.
'I can't wait for tonight'
'It will be perfect'
He gave her a kiss on her forehead and left her chamber.
Eleanor entered. 'That's mom's dress' she hissed.
Elyna bowed her head. 'Daddy said I could wear this'
'But it would be prettier on my body'
Elyna didn't answer.
'Now change. Your nothing more than a little creep'
'Eleanor, my room now'
Again Eleanor had that wicked smile. 'Probably he will give me something better than mom's dress'
Elyna still didn't say anything.

'Ladies, the time has come' the butler smiled.
Eleanor was the first who ran away.
When Elyna arrived at the staircase she saw how pretty the whole hall was.
Little candles on each step. Pretty garnishings everywhere.
Craig stood there. Halfway the stairs. Waiting for her.
While Eleanor already had gone with Lloyd.
'My lady' Craig spoke softly.
She walked towards him.
'You look pretty tonight' when he said that it made her smile.
He gave her his hand and they went downstairs.
Slowly the music started and the other guests came in.
All dressed in beautiful clothes with fitting masks.
Eleanor's mask was the most impressing of all but it didn't fit with her dress.
'You like it'? her father stood behind her. 'You did that for me'?
'Yes'
'Oh dad that's wonderful'
Elyna was happy.
Cause tonight she was getting all the attention for once
'Now put on your mask. Craig you too'
The two nodded.

Finally the whole masquerade was going on.
Wonderful music filled the hall.
Made it a magical thing.
Craig and Elyna didn't dance at the moment.
They were just talking. Bernard joined.
'Dad. You gave Eleanor that mask. But she most of the time she would look in the mirror'
'This time not. She was to excited'
Bernard grinned widely.
'May I have this dance' Craig asked Elyna after Bernard left them.
She only smiled, but it said enough.

The evening ended quickly.
Eleanor and her Lloyd were upstairs, while Elyna and Craig were still dancing.
A scream broke the peaceful atmosphere.
It struck twelve o'clock.
And it was the beginning of the haunted future.
