Where am I?
I don't know how much time had past, but I felt like someone had picked me up and started to wash my tortured and aching
body. I felt a silky gown being gently put on me and heard a voice telling me that everything
was going to be alright. Everything seems to be blurred, I opened my eyes,
tried to focus.
I saw a glamorous bedroom, with everything ones heart could have ever imagined.
I look around and I caught the sight of a woman, sitting in an armchair,
watching me.
Again, I tried to remember, was she one of them?
Suddenly shock hit me, "Morissa!" My voice was all raspy
and broken. Though, the woman who looked like my sister still just stared at
me, saying nothing.
"Morissa, is that you?" I asked.
The woman slowly nods and still just stares at me.
"It can't be....you are dead!" My voice came in disbelieve.
 
She stood up from her chair and
walked toward me. She really doesn't look any older then what I remembered her
last. Confusion spreads, how can this be?
"You died 8 years ago...how can this be, Mom and Dad told me you were
killed" My voice surely must have sounded really disturbed or
distressed as she looked at me and laughed "Well, they lied Sizzilia. They never told you the truth, they never told you what had really happened. We have much to talk about!"
She answered.
Questions over questions swirled in my mind, almost making me dizzy, but I
just had to know "Morrisa what happened to me, what did Lord Raven do to me?..and...where is
Felize?". I looked her slender form up and down in amazement while
happiness slowly spread over me. Finally, I was not alone no
more.
"Felize is fine Sizzilia, she went home and we don't want you to see her again! I have been watching you all these years, I know Felize is your best friend, but you are different now. You can't see her ever again! And to what we did to you...well, I or we insured that you could stay with me
forever now. You are lucky, Lord Raven likes you more then you can even imagine, he
too has been watching you for quit some time and grew very fond of you. You have become
like us, Immortal!
His child..."
I will never understand why my sister
did not give me the opportunity to choose myself. She just took it upon herself and chose for me. Needlessly to say, my adjusting to the new world, the new me in a Kindred world wasn't easy. But what could I
do, there was no return! Or so I thought.
Over the Years I fell in love with Lord Raven, my Sire - and he with me! He was a very compassionate man who
taught me all the things I needed to know to survive in a very unkind and brutal world. I learned of most of the MOST COMMON CLANS out there and how we were standing to them.
Morissa stood by my side, helping me
where ever she could. Come to find out that Morissa is of the Clan Malkavian and
thin blooded...that is why she didn't sire me herself! But I'm glad of her Choice, I became a witch and I started to love it.
Years later Lord Raven asked me to marry him and I accepted. My Love to him was stronger then steel, stronger then I had ever felt for a man. We went to Verona in Italy - later known as the birth town of Romeo and Juliet - with
allot of friends and went through a beautiful ceremony, I will never forget that night, it will burn into my mind forever.
The years went by, always looking for new adventures and lessons until the night when war broke out within the Clans.
Morissa and my love ordered me to stay in the keep, to protect it.
But I think it was more to protect me from any harm.
Years past until one night my world with no pain and comfort shattered. One night I was hit by a pain I never felt before, my chest was burning and I fell to the floor screaming out. Our servants -Ghouls - came rushing up to me getting a very concerned look in their faces. What I didn't understand then but know now is the bond my husband and I had
was breaking (Bloodbond). He was dying and I felt it, just like it was me. My sister
Morissa brought his ashes or whatever was left of him home.
About 2 nights went by, staying in our private chamber not leaving it even once,
Morissa knocked on my door, letting me know that it is time to put him to final rest. So I went and got
my black simple cloak which held hidden runes upon its material and went downstairs...where everyone was waiting for me.
The Lady of the Keep! The whole ceremony went by like in a dream, buffered, muffled...I didn't feel, I couldn't feel. After the Ceremony I stood before the Family
grave...telling Morissa who
kept on waiting for me, to please go home. She looked at me wanting to know If I was alright and I nodded. Telling her that I will be home soon.
Though after she left, I stood there by the grave....empty...burned out.
I wandered off into the night, blocking out all the memories, trying to forget. Staring into the empty, not walking home; where is home, where am
I.
