Chapter 8: Hedgehog and nightmares?

Nerida suddenly felt hot, which was very unusual because her body temperature was very low. She felt Something burning all over her body and felt air escaping from her lungs.

Nerida groggly opened her eyes and saw a horrible amount of destruction. Buildings burned to the ground, blood stained the streets, bodies and limbs of people were scattered around, and there were many cries and screams. Then Nerida started to panic, Nerida turned to her right and her eyes widen in horror, to see the bodies of the deceased nymphs, her parents, and many of her closest comrades.

Nerida immediately got up and went to check up to them. But once she touched them, her hand went through. Nerida tried to touch them but her hand kept going trhough their bodies and suddenly realised that she couldn't feel anything at all.

"No, nonono, not again, please!" Nerida suddenly felt tears streaming down her ghost face as she was now a spirit without a body, just like all those years ago.

"Mother"

"Father"

"Iris."

"Piper"

"Rae"

"Theia"

"Ruth"

"Amethyst"

"Daphne...." Nerida's breathing started to break down and she felt her sanity starting to slip away slowly.

Then she felt someone behind her, she turned around and saw her cousin Sabrina. Nerida glared at her as Sabrina smirked with glee.

"This is a dream. This is a dream. This is a dream." Nerida mumbled as she shook her head. There is no way this is real.

"Finally, after all of these years.... I finally got the throne. My destiny!" Sabrina cackled and grabbed Havalock's crown and placed it on her head and then danced around with the sickest grin Nerida has ever seen.

"Give it back, you monster!" Nerida shouted with agony.

"YOU'RE A FAKE! YOU JUST TAKE WHAT YOU WANT AND NEVER CARED ABOUT ANYONE, NOT EVEN YOUR OWN FAMILY! I TOLD YOU ONCE AND I WILL TELL YOU AGAIN, A CROWN DOES NOT MAKE YOU A ROYAL!"

But Sabrina just looked at her with amusment as red chains stated to pin down Nerida. "Hmm, we'll see about that cousin."

Nerida tried to get out of the chain's grip but everytime she moved the chains got tighter. She felt her power drain as each second passes by. Sabrina looked at Nerida one last time before walking away.
Sabrina walked over to the bodies of her uncle and aunt as well as the nymphs.

Without a care in the world, Sabrina ordered her soldiers, that were under her spell, and they mindlessly played with the dead corpes, tearing their arms, eyes, legs and even chopping off their hair. Some of the soldiers were laughing.

Nerida felt immense anger flooding through her and she struggled again, as she saw the corpes of the people who she loved being disrespected.

Stop it.

Stop it.

"STOP IT!" Nerida yelled as she opened her eyes she felt tears streaming down her face, she looked around to see a white landscape and she touched her face,arms, and legs. She was back to normal, she was no longer had a ghost like body.

'Again with these nightmares, when will it end?'

Nerida then stood up and wiped her tears away, then looked around and saw that she was near a lake, but it did not look like lake roccalcue or the nymph's cave. And her in the charmix form and she is back to her 19 year old body. But her gloves were gone.
