    Neris looked around. It was quiet in the room and dark. Only the wind lifted the curtains by the open balcony and moonlight fell on the floor beside the bed. Neris looked over there, where where Ales was to sleep, but he wasn't there.
- Ales?
  No one said anything. Where is he? Where he could go? And most importantly why? Suddenly there came a grinding sound of claws on iron. Neris shuddered and hid under the blanket. Gnashing subsided and the Princess poked her head. Neris got up from the bed and
began to rub her hands as she was frozen. And when she was breathing, came out her mouth the steam. How strange it was cold, like winter. Neris put on a jacket and went out of the room and went down the stairs. Slowly she did step by step and suddenly there came the sound of glass. Neris started and stopped, looking down. It was dark there, though from the windows was moonlight. The heart of the Princess was pounding rapidly from fear. "What's happening? I'm like in a horror movie" she thought. Princess went down, into the kitchen and was horrified. On the floor was broken glass. The window was unbroken, it means someone broke something else. Neris again looked around.
- Ales! - once again called him Neris
 He didn't answered. But after her words, in a few minutes there came a grinding sound of claws on the iron, but this time much closer. Neris shuddered and looked in the direction whence was sound. He was walking from the living room. Neris's heart wasn't calmed down. She was very scared. She gently go to the living room. The room was destroyed, furniture rolled around and in some places was broken and gasket was scattered on the floor. It looked as if there's someone here who fought. Neris looked around and saw Ales at the end of the room. He stood with his back to Princess and face to the wall. Neris sighed with relief. She found Ales, and everything else is not important.
- Ales, what happened here? Why mess is here? Why did you get up? I-
 But she covered her ears from the horrible twisted metal. Ales put a hand on the wall.
- I smell your fear......he's so strong and...sweet...
Neris shuddered and taking a step back, with misunderstanding looked at him. What he say now? His voice ... the voice was slightly different.
- Ales? It was you?: Neris asked trembling voice
 Ales turned slowly to face her. Princess nearly screamed and grabbed nose. Ales's face was pale, his eyes burned red. Clothes were torn and crumpled in some places. On his face was a wicked grin, and on a nose, which previously was the bite was visible spot on the entire width of the nose, like the stalk with thorns:
"You.....you....you don't Ales! : stammering Neris said and took another step back.
Alex dropped his head and went at her:
- Ales is not here.....Only I... : said Ales and continued to walk towards her.
He came nearer and nearer. Neris backed away. She didn't understand what happening, but she had to escape! When the Princess entered the space between the kitchen and the living room, she knocked over a wooden table and ran out through the main door to the outside. Alex grinned and followed her. Neris knew a secret portal, which was in the Ales's lab, and fled there. She had to get out of here and go to the father, and there will understand what happened. She ran, sometimes looking back. Ales not pursued her. She noticed that there was snow around. What? Can't be! Because now the spring and soon will be the summer! Suddenly Neris get hit by the iron gate on bridge, and fell. Patting the head, she got up and went to the gate and tried to open them. What?! They are closed! Neris began to shake the iron bars, but all was in vain:
- Come on! Open!
Suddenly something with the power shoved her aside. She fell and was in the center of the platform, front of the castle. Looking around, Neris saw a Ales's shadow. He walked to her and grinned:
"You will not escape from me
After these words, Ales claws. Neris looked at him, and just before the kick dodged and arose, and ran to the castle. Ales jumped up to her and grabbed her arm, pulled. Neris tried to escape, and she did it, but she tore the sleeve. Ales hissed and leaving the remainder of the sleeve, ran for Neris. Princess slammed the door and closed it right in front of Ales and moved back, looking at the door. After a couple of seconds they heard blows on the door. Neris quickly began to climb the stairs. She had a backup plan. Ales once gave her a bag of smoke balls. They were bewitched, throws them in the floor and thinking about the place will move, in the smoke, he disappeared and was in the place where he wanted. Neris walked down the stairs and suddenly the thunder at the door stopped. Neris turned and laid her hand on heart. It was beating. Was very quiet. Making two steps back, up the stairs, Neris stopped near a large window. She didn't notice as to the window approached Ales and he, breaking glass, shoved her down the stairs, through the railing. Neris fell. Once on the floor, among the fragments, the Princess stood up. It hurt her. On hand were slightly bloody scratches from fragments, and her side ached from hitting the floor. Ales landed beside her. Neris looked at him and tried to crawl away. This time on his back had wings with purple leaky membrane. Although wings resembled a bat. He turned to Neris and claws. She screamed and rolled to one side right before impact. Claws Ales stuck in the wooden floor. He was growling try to pull them out of wood, but couldn't. Neris used this and got up, grabbed the arm that was very ill and ran up the steps. Ales fluttered his wings pulled the wooden beam from the floor and threw it in Neris. It crashed into the wall next to her when she opened the door to her room. The Princess quickly entered the room and closed the door behind him, but Ales grabbed her by the collar and pulled her:
- Let me go!: shouted Neris trying to escape from his grasp
Ales grinned:
"Why did you run away? I didn't want to hurt you
Post these words he released claw and held them in her nose:
- Ah! Ales stop it! It hurts!: shouted Neris and twitched, that will be released
Alex ignored her words and hit her face. Neris screamed and fell to the floor knocking on the table. Table leg was broken and all that was on the table fell. Neris sat up and touching her nose looked at hand. It was in blood. Her head was spinning. Not surprising, because many times she was falling and ran? Suddenly she felt under other hand smoke balls and took one from the floor and barely barely stood up. Wiped the tears, she looked plaintively at Ales:
- Why are you doing this?! You like me! And now I want to kill! Why? Why.....: she cried
- If I will kill you, your friend will disappear!: evil spoke Ales
- What?: uncomprehending looked at him Neris
It was no time to talk, she could lose her own life! She squeezed in the palm the ball and throwing on the floor, disappeared in the smoke.
She now on the meadow in Glade of Dreams. She barely stood on their feet and are able now to faint, but she found the strength and quickly ran to the castle of Minimus. "You fool, why didn't think move directly to Dad? Oh yeah....The Heart of the World blocks all, if someone tries to teleport to the castle."
Soon the Princess entered the castle. There were no guards, so nobody noticed. And now, after a couple of stairs, Neris went to great stone to the door and they were opened. On the throne sat Minimus and looking at his daughter with horror started:
- Neris! Honey, what's wrong with you?
- Dad.......
After these words, all the scratches, blood and bruises Neris fainted on the marble floor.....
Thanks again to my friend :iconraysvet55:
