Darkness; everlasting darkness. That was all he knew. Hoving in that place beyond life and death, that void of his soul, that pit of his own self pity. It was his life, his curse. And how he grew tired of it.
Then, a faint light in the distance. The man with hair the color of raven's wings tilted his head up solemly, his silver eyes squinting against the onslaught of beauty, the brightness of the strange invasion.
As his eyes adjusted to the light; an image began to appear. An image of soft blonde hair (oh gawd i hope her hair was blonde i don't remember) and a slender neck. It was the sight of that neck that lifted his foot, that made him stumble towards that light, that vision of beauty in a world of darkness.
Within the mirror's reflection he appeared, a dark god with gleaming black locks, silver eyes within a pale face. His clothing was like that of royalty, like the days of old.
There he stood, within the mirror, a still image, unmoving, unblinking, just staring with those eerie silver eyes.

((blonde haired blue eyed babe XD that's Crystal))
She stepped back in surprise, eyes wide. She reached forward and touched the mirror. "Huh?" she said aloud. "Is this a mirror, or something else?" she mused aloud, staring at the pale but handsome figure in the mirror where her image should have been.

Pain seized him, taking hold of his entire body as her hand outstretched and touched the mirror's surface. It was like a shock to his system, a crumblingk down of him insides and a stretching of his joints.
The mirror's surface was suddenly filled with blind white light, chasing away all the darkness in the room and leaving no place for shadow.
There was the horrific sound of an animalistic cry, a scream of agony and pain. And when the light began to fade, to let image appear again, there, before the mirror, lay an unconcious man. The man whose reflection had just minutes ago show through it's surface.

Crystal screamed when she heard screams and pulled her hand away to cover her eyes as she clenched them shut. She stayed like that until shortly after the scream was gone. She peaked through her fingers and looked around, before seeing the man on the ground. She gasped and knelt down, checking him for injury. When she couldn't find one, she rushed to the bed and pulled the blanket off with some difficulty, and placed it over him. She didn't know if she should run to get help or stay till he woke and told her to get help. He didn't quite seem human, so she chose to stay until he woke and told her to get help.

The man sucked in a deep gasp of fresh air to his lungs, his very being hurting. Clenching his teeth tightly he tried to move his tense muscles, pushing himself a bit off of the floor. His body gave out and he let lose a moan of frustration, falling to the floor once more.
That's when he smelt it, the heady scent of rose oil and incense. His very soul clenched in longing, and a moan escaped his lips, this one very much different from his first.
He tried opening his eyes, hissing at the brightness. With a sweep of his hand he extinguished all of the candles filling the room.
He hesitantly pried open his eyes, and found himself staring at soft blonde locks and sky blue eyes.

Crystal watched as he tried to move, tried to sit up but fell over. She froze for a brief second as all the lights when out in the room, leaving her immersed in darkness with him. He must be a vampire. She licked her lips and gently found his hand. "Do you need help? Food?" she asked, eyes wide and concerned.

He stared up at the girl in shock. Could it be...was it really? Lifting a shaking hand he lay his palm against her warm skin, it's softness chilling him to the bone.
"Be..Bethany?"

Crystal arched her eyebrows. "I'm sorry, I'm not Bethany. My name is Crystal..." she murmured to him. "Are you in pain? Do you need me to get help?"

It was then that he noticed it. Blonde hair, but not the same spun gold as he had thought, and the eyes were a bit darker than he had originally seen.
A hardness slowly settled over him, until he rose silently, his body stiff and controlled.
"Who are you, what are you doing here, in my castle?"

Crystal moved back to give him some room as he rose. "I'm Crystal- and I guess I'm being housed here...Princess Fiona said this corridor was haunted so I wanted to check it out, and that's how I found this room and...I guess you...I'm sorry, sir," she said and bowed her head. "I'll leave now if you'd like."

"Wait!" He called, is stance eager. "You..you've seen Fiona?"

Crystal nodded. "Yeah. I've met most of the people in this castle, and Fiona is the one who introduced me....Do you want me to take you to find her?"

For a split second it looked like he was about to say yes, then suddenly a darkness came over his expression, his eyes becomming narrowed slits and his palms clenched tightly.
"This is my castle, I am positive that I can find her myself. And if by some change I did need assistance, you would be the last person I went to. You, an outsider, you know nothing about this place, and I don't plan on giving you any more time here to discover anything."
He turned, staring out the window. "Your time here has reached an end. You may leave with the cloths that were provided with you, but you are to leave immediatly. Without speaking to anyone" He bit out the last few words, as if it were of dire importance.

((dang...you get on twenty minutes before i have to go...talk about timing))
Crystal stared at him, and then she glared. "No. I will say goodbye to Fiona first before leaving, and thank her for letting me into this home," she said and glowered at him. She turned for the door. What if that monster is still outside? she wondered fearfully.

(haha im sorry mi computer has been dead. i had to replace it))
He was before her in an instant, not giving her the chance to reach the door.
His silver eyes glowed an eerie red as he looked down at her, static electricity sparking in the small space between them.
"You will speak to no one, especially Fiona."
