Violet
Fire was everywhere.
And a lot of screaming.
I tried to move, and turn my head, but my body wouldn't obey me. It felt like I was trapped inside someone else's body, and all I could do was watch…
Smoke burned my throat. Heat pressed against my skin. All around me, the world was chaos.
I was standing on a stone balcony overlooking a large city with rising structures, and majority of them were engulfed in flames. Black smoke billowed into a night sky that had turned orange with reflected fire.
My stomach sank at the gut wrenching screams that echoed all around it.
And beneath it, were the sounds of battle. Metal clashing. Wolves howling. The thunderous impact of bodies colliding.
"Zephyr!"
The name snapped the attention of the body I was in. Two small girls came running through an open doorway, their faces streaked with tears and soot. Their little hands reaching out desperately.
"They're coming!" one of them sobbed. "The wolves are inside the walls!"
