"The ocean covers more of the earth than land. Take care of it"

26|THIS IS WHERE SHE BELONGS

Isolde walks through the forest, using her hands to guide her and yet there is also this thing that seems to be helping her walk, without her even knowing how or why. The dark brown haired Princess is bleeding heavily and yet it does not seem to be killing her. The creature on her arm keeping her alive even when she is not aware of it. Breaking every rule that is known to humans; that bleeding out means death if not stopped and Isolde's wounds have not stopped bleeding. The wound on her head bleeds but slowly it is stopping, yet not fully.

The pale green-eyed girl leaves a bloody trial everywhere that she goes, yet it does not seem to bother her. For all the time that she had been in the forest she was unable to see any sort of animal and now that she is unable to see, she is confident (and will fight about it if questioned) that she is all alone there. The sound of the battle are so distant that she can barely even hear them anymore and still she carries on, wanting to get far away from the noises and the things that she does not understand.

Perhaps it was a good thing that she did not hear the words that were said by not only Hunter but also Poseidon or as she prefers to call Thomas. Though she is still on the fact that he is a Demon, and now she has met two other Demons, they have all one goal in mind but go on different ways to do it. "You walk in the wrong direction" A voice in front of her speaks. Making the girl jump up when they are spoken. It is a man that had spoken to her as his voice is deep and yet filled with this amusement which Isolde does not pick on.

The voice belongs to neither Hunter nor Dimitri and not even Thomas. It is a voice that she has never heard before in her life, and yet she finds herself wanting to be near it. "I command you to leave me alone!" She spats at him, having no time nor the energy to even argue about this or even speak to this man. Not only is she in a bad mood from being unable to see, but she's having a rough day and just wants to sit down and rest a bit, perhaps even sleep and then wake up from this nightmare.

It will be as if it had never even happened at all and her life would be all right again, she would not have to worry about the next day. The man chuckles as he takes some steps towards her, she felt that, and she heard it. "Leave such an innocent Princess in the forest by herself? I do hold myself higher than that" He tells her, more amused than he was before. "Then go back to the high end of your life and leave me be!" She speaks.

She doesn't need her sight to be mad at someone and after what she has been through, she deserves to be mad. And Isolde has grown tired of how people show up from nowhere. Perhaps it is another Demon that is there to take her. Who knew that her soul would be so hard to get down there? Though it is Isolde. "I'm afraid that I cannot do that. I was told to find you and I would rather break the deal that I had made" He tells her and looks at her.

The man giving her smirk even when he is well aware that she cannot even see it, the fact that it is there is better than not. And he does love smirking. Especially when something amuses him and the girl in front of him does. "You were told to find me? Sounds rather odd since we are in the middle of a forest, do you not think?" She asks him, without even realizing that her words do not make much sense. Her body is human and has grown tired and hungry, and while she is not dying from her injuries one cannot argue that she is not human.

She is, and she is tired and all she wants is sleep and forget all the things that have happened to her. Perhaps even wake up to a day when things are much better and none of this had even happened at all. "Yes. You will soon find that I do keep the promises that I've made. And also finding you was the most easiest thing that I've ever done. Much like breathing, it is what I do" He speaks. Isolde scoffs. "Finding people? A boring gift" She speaks and attempts to walk past him.

However, his hand goes on her shoulder and stops her from going further. "Yes. Boring to you perhaps. One might be surprised how many people go lost each year. I can find them all in a split second" He tells her. This man does not impress her in the slightest, then again there is much that does impress her. "As much as I would love to discuss your miracle of finding lost people, I have to go, and it would be appreciated if you were to leave me alone. I do not wish to deal with you any longer" She speaks and walks past him, not caring for anything else.

Terra watches her walk with a smirk on his face. "To death you walk, little girl" He speaks but more to himself as his voice was just barely above a whisper, but it was there. He follows her but his steps are so silent and smooth that Isolde does not hear him as he is walking behind her. She, of course, continues her way of going through the forest. Not even knowing where she is going herself and the longer that she continues on the more frustrated she becomes.

"I do advise you to turn around and walk the other way. For going into that direction will only speed up your death. Which I am certain you wish to stray far away from" He speaks, and she rolls her eyes as she realizes that he's following her and that does not make her feel any better nor does the fact that she knows deep down that he's right. "Why?" She asks him as she turns to face him. "Why you wish to live? I do believe that is the way nature is" He says to her and smirks, but not his normal smirk.

"No" She says and shakes her head as there is a look of disgust on her face, as if she can feel that he's smirking and hating it already. If there is anything that Isolde despises, it is a man that smirk at her and pretend that they are better when clearly it is she that is better than them, and she does not hesitate to show them just how below her, they are and that she is the one that controls them, and then she will smirk herself as she is the one that rules and is better.

"Why do you give me advises, follow me around and be around me when I have stated that I do not wish to be around you and I want you to leave me be? I have had the worst day of my life, and I would rather you do not make it worse or else I will be forced to do things that I'm certain you would rather not want to happen" Isolde speaks to him, angry and annoyed but not just at him but at the world and everyone in it, she's angry at everyone, even herself.

Terra does not get a chance to answer her question as a laugh does, a laugh coming from Ahmeya as she walks over to Isolde and takes her hand. "You better run back to your flower pot, I have it all covered" Ahmeya speaks to Terra and smirks at him and Isolde laughs. While she did not understand the meaning behind the words did not mean that she did not find it funny. Terra rolls his eyes. "Remember, I know all" He speaks and just like that he disappears as if he was never there at all, though Isolde does not see that happen.

"Who was that?" Isolde asks, even when she is not that interested in knowing who he was but since she has lost her vision for who knows how long, she might as well know the people that are around her for her own safety that is, not that she would want to be friends with them or even get to know that, that is not on her agenda this day. "No one" Ahmeya answers quickly and this, the girl does notice and raises an eyebrow and thinks that she is looking at the other one.

Thankfully her pale green eyes are looking at the ocean nymph who stands before her. "You do look like you have come back from the dead" She speaks to the Princess who laughs. "Perhaps I did" She jokes, or perhaps she wasn't. Her body is unable to feel any pain and the longer that she feels that way and that she can't see, she feels as if though she has already died and her spirit is the one that wanders the forest, in search for peace, but she is unable to find it, and she is helpless for the rest of eternity.

Yet, Isolde can feel that there is a heartbeat in her chest and that she is breathing. She may not know much about spirits of ghosts, but she is well aware of how they are incapable of even feeling anything at all, and they spend eternity in agonizing pain and misery. All they can do is haunt the people that hurt them while they were alive and even when they are bored they will haunt those who are around them or just about anything. As lovely as that thought sounds, she does not believe herself to be a spirit, at least not yet.

Ahmeya starts to lead the girl through the forest, and she helps her past the trees and this time she does not need to use her hands to guide her and nearly hit everything that comes in her path, yet even then she felt that she was able to walk normally before. Still, Isolde bleeds from her wounds and her heart should have stopped by now, but the magic from the creature on her arm is keeping her alive. The Princess does not know that it is a creature and that way it is better.

For there is a reason for her sight alone was taken from her (beside her pain) for it can only mean that she would pry it from her hands and throw it away. Perhaps even stamp on it in fear and pretend that it tried to attack her. "Where are we going?" She asks after a moment or two or perhaps a good ten minutes of them in silence in the forest and for those who know the girl, they would know that she does not tend to enjoy the silence very much and has to break it in some way.

"To the ocean. It is the only thing that well help you heal now" The black eyed ocean nymph tells the girl with a small smile on her face. She has the friend that she has missed back. It may not have been a long time since she went missing, but she must remember that she is still human and can get harmed in ways that Ahmeya does not know yet. "Will I be able to sleep?" Isolde then asks after she has processed the things that the other girl had said to her.

Though the girl is barely even able to process the things around her. Her body is exhausted and starving. The thought about sleeping in the warm and comfortable bed and never sounded better than now and that is where she wishes to be and stay for a long time. Maybe even for the rest of her life as she does like her sleep, and she does love sleeping but then again who does not? Sleep is a way to escape the world that they live in, whether that is a magical one or not but sleep has this strange ability to take you away and bring you happiness, even if for only a couple of hours.

"Yes" Ahmeya answers her once again she does it quickly. Isolde rolls her eyes as it is best to not question her once again, even if she feels that she has to break the silence between the two of them. She will just have to deal with it for some time longer for the ocean is not that far away. Somehow without knowing how she is able to do it, Isolde is able to tell that they are near the ocean. Somehow she can feel it inside her, as if it goes through her veins. These feelings make her feel like she's one with the ocean.

Even from afar she can hear a heartbeat which she knows comes only from the ocean itself and how it breathes. It flows through her like nothing that she has never felt before in her life, and it makes her feel as if life itself is flowing through her entire body. Before they could even reach the ocean Isolde stops by a tree and stares out, without even seeing anything. Letting out a breath she stands there for a second with Ahmeya looking at her with a strange feeling.

Her body feels as if it's going home and the feelings that are inside her are one that she enjoys. This happiness takes her under and brings a smile to her face. This pull from the ocean grows stronger and even as she stands still she can feel this invisible rope wrap itself around her and pull her towards itself, the ocean is stubborn but so is she. Even without sight Isolde feels as if she can see. This longing to be in the ocean takes over her entire body where it becomes hard to think anything other than the ocean itself.

Slowly she makes her way towards the edge of the forest where the ocean is in front of her. The scent of the salt from the ocean as well as the waves she can smell and hear, and it makes her feel like she has reached safety, that she is home, and she is loved. The ocean is alive, and it is begging for her to find it and be around her, and she does not object to it. With each step that she takes she feels as if she is going to fall deep within the depths of happiness and lose herself forever.

It would not be bad either, forever she would gladly lose herself for all eternity if those feelings inside her, she can feel. All the darkness and all the pain and all that is bad is gone from her, like it was never there at all and the girl only has this happiness and joy running through her body. Her mind can barely process the darkness anymore as there is only light and that is the only thing that matters and only thing that she wants.

That is until the thought of Thomas enters her mind, and she finds that the hidden emotion that she has for him is resurfacing. The ocean itself is somehow showing her what she feels deep within her heart. As if this new door has opened before her and she is finally seeing through the feeling and emotions that she thought that she had buried deep within her, where not even herself could find them, but now it is all out in the open, still only for Isolde to see and know what means, and she knows exactly what it means.

Isolde goes down on her knees on the sand and the waves touch her so softly as if it were giving her a light peak each time that they touch the sandy beach. Then she closes her eyes and these images in her mind begin to form. All Ahmeya can do is stand there nearby and watch as the girl has found herself lost in the ocean. Similar to what she has seen in the King which she serves. The ocean is calling out to the girl, and it is telling her what secretes she has inside her. This is what she saw in Poseidon a long time ago and now is seeing it in Isolde as well.

And she knows that the life that they live will never be the same again, at least not for Isolde that is. The ocean's visions will show her things that will change the way that she sees the world. Ahmeya smiles at the girl, and seeing how the ocean is opening itself to the girl. For the ocean is alive, and it does have a heart deep within itself which only a select few can understand. Isolde being one of them, and she has proven herself to be worthy of the secrets that the water holds.

The world around Isolde is just gone and there is nothing that she can think of beside him and her thoughts of him but these images in her mind are images that she does not understand, but something tells her that she is about to understand what it all means soon enough. The pale green eyes Princess begins to play with the water and use her fingers to play with it, all while seeing things in her mind which should be impossible, and yet she sees it clearly as if she were seeing something right in front of her.

Neither of the two girls seem to care nor notice that there is still a battle in the forest which they have managed to get out of, but in there the battle still reigns, and it is getting worse as father and son battle. These beings which most would not understand fight with everything that they have. The forest being their obstacle. However, one of the men that were there with them is not there any longer, and he has sneaked off and followed the girls and watches Isolde sit by the ocean, and he smirks, knowing that this just got much more interesting.
