The Tales of A Vampire

C-108 A Bad Dream

Jasper's POV

I go home like withered vegetables. I slam at my couch and remove my casual blazer and throw it to the next couch. I remove my shoes and slam them next to my socks and throw them angrily. I slam my body to lay on the couch.

I put my arm to my forehead and exhale. My mind drifts to Amanda. Where is she? Why she was disappeared without a trace. Does something bad happen to her? I recall that I asked Amanda to almost people in the party whom I encountered. Sadly, those vampires at the party whom I ask about her, don't know who's Amanda is. How it could be? Seems she is prominent in the clan, I guess. She s mysterious. Even I described her from what she told me little about herself, they made sure that they don't know who I was looking for. I took my breath roughly. I really feel worried about her.

I hope one of these days she will call me so that I won't be worried for her anymore. I stared at my cellphone at the table for a long.

"Amanda. Amanda. Oh, my Amanda! where are you?" Are you ok? I pray to the Moon Goddess that you are okay." As I whisper to myself thinking that the cold air will bring my whispers to Amanda.

I teleport to my bathroom. I remove all clothes and soak in warm water in a bathtub with lavender and rose petals I made for myself. I close my eyes and let my mind drift off.

I woke up in the forest which I am not familiar with. There are illuminating lights and fogs. I stood up and look around this wonderful place. Its canopy lushes with green and yellow leaves that are healthy. The fireflies are dancing in the air. I feel wonderful. I heard the sounds of the river. I walk in its direction. The river is amazingly long, beautiful, and peaceful. Lots of flowers with different species grow freely in the place. So an enchanting place.

"Who are you invading the peaceful of this forest?" A woman's voice echoed. I turn back and see a beautiful lady who has white hair and deep forest green eyes. She wears a green long gown with a vines design belt of gold on her slim waistline. The hem of the gown touched the ground freely.

She has a crown of vines design made of gold with emerald stone at the center which she wears on her forehead. Her curly long dark brown hair flows freely.

She is really beautiful but not as pretty as Amanda. But I notice she has the little feature of Amanda. Who is she?

"Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know how I came here. I didn't mean to disturb this forest." I said. Thinking that this person might be a goddess or what. I don't want to have trouble with some mythical creature or spirits.

"Hmm what is your name?" Her soft voice makes me shiver. Her eyes stared at me deeply like it crushing me to the bones.

"I'm J-jasper, Jasper Mackintosh," I stammered answering her.

"Stay away from Amanda." She said. I was surprised she knew Amanda.

"Y-you knew her?! Where is she?" I ask her hoping she can tell me about Amanda.

"She is fine. Stay away from her from now on. Forget her." She said.

"N-no. I can not. Why do you say these to me? Who are you?" I ask to refuse her request.

"Because that is the best thing you could do for her. Don't look for her anymore. You two are both attracting disaster. Follow what I am saying to you. This makes you safe, both of you." She said with a fading voice and at the same she is fading, too.

"N-no! Hey, wait. Don't leave me here. Wait!" I run to her but she totally disappeared from my eyes. The illuminating lights faded, too. It becomes dark. The canopies become monsters that will eat me.

"Aaahhhhh!!! No! Let me go!" I screamed when the tree have hands and got me..crushing my bones to death. The trees laughed evilly.

"Aaahhh!!!" I screamed and wake up. I look at my surrounding. I was in my room. Beads of sweat all over my face.

"Oh, it was a dream. A bad dream. Oh, Goddess! Thank you it was just a dream." As I told to myself. I go to the wine cabinet and gulp the wine with blood.

"That dream it looks like real. Who is that woman? Why does she know, Amanda?" Thinking back my dream.

Third Person's POV

In the meantime, Amanda was sad thinking was what Laura said a while ago to her. Why does Laura say that? Is she telling the truth? What she does know that never told me? As she thinks. Crossing her arms at their veranda. Her white silk dress flowed freely on the ground. The wind playing its hem.

But I know Laura won't say anything foolish. She thought to herself. She meant what she said, she thought. She sighs. What shall I do now? She looks up at the sky like the answer is there.

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Laura says.

"Oh! Nothing important." She says.

"Haven't you yet eaten your chocolate?" She asks Laura.

"Hmm, not yet." Laura reply. Laura looks at the surroundings that embrace by darkness.

"Why not?" She asks.

"I m not yet craving sweets, maybe later," Laura says.

"Laura, why did you tell me that I can't be with Jasper? What are things you know that you keep secret from me?" I told her.

"You two will attract disasters with each other. That is what I saw in your future." Laura reply.

"What disasters we will encounter?" She asks. Laura turned to her and meet her eyes.

"I am sorry that I cannot say for now. But please, sister Amanda, listen to my warnings, for you to be safe. This is the best for you, both." Laura says.
