The Rejected Phoenix novel Chapter 1

Chapter one.

Subtitle : HER NIGHTMARE

Melanie was at it again.

She was yet in the middle of an empty desert.

It was dry and carried around a banished humor.

She was scared to the teeth.

It was cold and freezing.

She had just a hood on and a pair of torn dirty sandals.

It was a rough thing to encounter.

The breeze churned at her ears as it made angry sounds.

She shuddered and bite her lips.

It was as if someone was seeing her.

"who's there? "

She asked.

Her voice echoed in the dark as it made multiple more voice as it echoed along the way.

"pleaseee don't harm me... I just want to pass.. "

She added.

There was a sudden fuss in weather. It got too breezy that her hair was flying around in four different directions.

Her cloths fought to hug her body as it flew along.

A huge and dark figure appeared in front of her.

It was so huge that she almost fainted.

The beast was huge and looked like it had wings.

She whimpered and moved backwards.

With every step she takes the beast takes one after her.

And when the beast spoke it has the most unusual voice ever.

It was as sweet as a flute bread and was as melodious as her mother's lullaby.

She widened her eyes in surprise.

"hmmmm. How long would it have taken you to find me? "

The beast asked.

She cringed.

"please don't eat me... I'm just gonna pass here and I won't come back again... "

She muttered still going back.

"pass to where? I've waited nineteen years for you to come to me and now you want to pass? How redundant!"

The beast was angry as it reflects in its feminine voice.

Aurora could tell the beast was female from the way it talked so sweetly yet it's dark figure betrays it's sweet voice.

She still couldn't pin point what it was exactly.

"Who... who are you... Please do not eat me. "

Aurora added as she tripped on a stone and fell on the sand.

She crawled back.

"I won't eat you. I am the legendary fire phoenix and queen of the Phoenix deserts.

It's being thirty years since I recoiled here after loosing my fire bird.

I'm too old and have a little more days to live.

You are my next of kin and also the last. You have to take over from me before I die! "

The beast snapped and Melanie almost fainted with confusion.

"No please I don't know what your talking about please.

Do not eat me.

I don't know you.. "

She was brazed to the bones.

The beast was annoyed.

"shut up! "

The beast snapped and Melanie yelled and fell to the floor.

"I'm your queen and you don't have the right to talk back at me. Your just a phoenix princess. You must do as I say!"

The beast snapped again and Melanie closed her eyes.
