Chapter 1

She smiled as she ran down the deserted hallway, past the old photographs and past the creaky bathroom door. She jumped over the dreaded squeaky floor board and made a mad dash for the prime hiding spot. No longer was her life plagued by her childish thoughts. Her once flat chest now supported a full set of glorious twins, bouncing in the setting sun cascading through the window. She turned the corner sharply and ducked under a small table.

*He will never find me in here* she smiled almost sadistically to herself.

“12...13...14...15...16...17...18...19...20... ready or not... here I come!” Toby yelled loudly through the gigantic house.

Sarah silently smiled and held her breath as her little brother made his way past her secured hiding spot. He slowly passed and doubled back, secretly knowing exactly where she was. He had heard her running down the long hallway when he had been counting. He loved playing hide and seek with Sarah. Hell, he loved Sarah more than anything in the world. He didn’t understand why he felt so close to her, but she was his everything and anything a big sister should and could be.

“Sarah, I know where you are.”

Sarah jumped as she heard the all to familiar voice ring like crystal through her human ears. She closed her eyes and reassured herself.

*It’s just dad or Toby...*

“Why Sarah? Why do you deny me so?”

That certainly wasn’t her father’s nor Toby’s voice. She deeply inhaled and held her breath, urging herself to keep her imagination under control.

*Remember the exercises... breath and release the inner demons* she stated calmly to herself.

“Tell me Sarah,” She felt a gloved hand pull her hair away from her shoulder and felt hot breath on her ear, “When did I become a Demon? I seem to remember doing you a favor.”

*Dammit Toby, hurry up and find me.* She quenched her eyes shut and felt something being slid over her head and being let go to fall down to hang down.

“Sleep my dear Sarah, sleep”

Toby walked by the table again, but stopped quick when he saw her shoe sticking out from under then table cloth. He grinned as evilly as a 11 year old could and shook her foot.

“Sis, you really should hide yourself better. Leaving your shoe out gives you away completely!

Silence.

“Sis, stop playing. Really, come on.”

A threatening silence ripped through Toby’s world. Toby bent down and slowly drew back the cloth material. His eyes grew to the size of grapefruits and his breath caught in his throat. He dropped the table cloth and back peddled away from the the table and hit the hallway wall with a sickening thud. Underneath sat Sarah blankly staring off into nothingness. But, that’s not what made Toby’s skin crawl. She always stares into space, it was a natural thing for her. It was the pendent that was hanging from her neck that made his stomach turn.

“DAD! DADDY!” Toby’s voice pierced the air.

“What? Toby, what the hell is wrong? Where is Sarah?”

“Dad, he’s back... he’s got Sarah!”

“Whose got Sarah? What are you talking about?”

He lifted up the cloth and his heart skipped a beat. Laying under the table was a shoe, a doll and a pendant. He picked up the doll and gasped as the beautiful girl looked like a mini Sarah,

“Toby, where is Sarah?”

“That will be none of your concern anymore,” both of them jumped a mile high and looked in the direction of the crystalline voice,” She is mine.”

“And who the hell do you think you”

“I,” the pissed of fae cut him short,”Am none of your concern either. You need not worry, Mr. Williams. Your daughter will be fine. More detail will come later,” he said adjusting a leather glove,” If I see fit.”

“You can’t have her. She doesn’t love you!” Toby yelled at the King of the Goblins.

The taken back lord raised an eyebrow at the young oppressor.

“My my, such a temper. What a pity you waste your energy fighting. Toby the pendant is for you, as is the doll. While she will not be returning, you will understand in time how to use them. As you for you, Mr. Williams, she is not coming back. She escaped me once. It will not happen again. I apologize for my shortness, but my lady awaits the punishment she has been slipping away from for so long.”

And with a bow the fae king made his leave in a cloud of glitter and a puff of smoke.

“Toby, go call 9-1-1.”
