Kitsune yawns as sleep beckons her attention and reluctantly she complies. She dreams of villages she has visited over the years, even Iwagakure twenty years ago. She had forgotten that she has been to Stone before: it was so long ago and she was fairly young. Long ago her family had a performance in the wonderland café but she got lost. She was deep in the mines separated from her parents. She tries to retrace her steps but the tunnels acted like a maze and only got more lost. She calls for her mother but gets no reply. Tired she sits on the ground hugging her legs and cries bellowing sobs into her knees. She then hears a woman’s voice, but could not make out the words. The voice was gentle and seemed vaguely familiar. She looks up a sees a hand reaching out to her. She goes to take it and wakes up. “That voice!”
“Oh good you remember me.” KItsunes head spun to see a woman sitting in a chair next to her bed. She was a beautiful woman with hair as dark as night. Woven into her lush locks were gems that shown like stars. The woman dressed like that of royalty with robes of dark violet. Over her eyes was a blindfold the same color as her royal gowns and was marked with a crimson crescent moon. Above the blindfold on her forehead was the mark of a curse seal. It was a striking resemblance of Luna but something was different. Marks painted her skin like a leopard, her curse seal was in its second stage.
Looking around Kitsune does not recognize the room she is in. “I demand you to tell me who you are and where you have taken me.”
She looks straight in Kitsune’s eyes, as if to show her utmost honesty as she tells her, “I believe you already have an idea who I am, but I will confirm it if you wish. I am a fragment of the being you call The Nightmare. As for where you are; you are lying down under your bedcovers. In your bedroom. Asleep. Your consciousness is currently inside the confines of your own mind, as am I. This must be the first time you’ve had true lucidity here. Don‘t be alarmed.”
“But didn’t I just wake up a moment ago?”
The woman wave a hand suggesting it was of little importance, “That was merely one dream bleeding into another. It happens all the time. But that is not important. I am about to offer you a deal of a lifetime. I will give you my powers and with it you would be a princess! A queen! An emperoress! The night itself would be our very toy. All I ask, my dear,” She fixes Kitsune with a flattering stare, looking as captivating as she can manage, “is that you willingly give me your body.”
