Isabelle stepped down from her carriage
Her every step landing on the marble floor gave off a click click sound on her every move.
Hearing the clicks sound on the marble floor, their anxiety grew, her walk was light and smooth on the marble floor, but for the servants the sound was like the death is walking towards them by wearing a drees of daydream and fragrance of flower like heaven.
For them the sound of heels landing on the marble floor was loud, in their ears as she walked more close, their heartbeat would increase by every step.
Pounding heartbeat, slightly shivering body due to fear, eyes lowered down but looking here and there in such of hope to escape this nightmare.
When she entered the Ventibule, where the servants where waiting for her arrival in the castle, she walked passing the servants, but her ears caught the hard beating of hearts in their chest, she stopped her steps and turned around, looking down her servants.
Her stare only terrified the servants even more,
sweat sliding down from the temple down to their neck.
Before butler would explain this situation,
Isabelle asked all of them,
"Where is Andrew?"
None of them answered.
Then the Lord Santiago opened his lips slightly and answered.
"I can not find, Master Andrew, my lady"
"Do you realise, what you are answering, Santiago?"
Isabelle questioned him, raising her eyebrows.
"My lady, he was with me, he told me that he is going for washroom, but–"
"He did not come back"
Isabelle completed his paused sentence.
She lifted her head up and gazed towards the statue, which was built high up, in the contact of the ceiling.
While looking at the statue, she tilted her head a little.
After that her gaze came down on the servants.
"All of you, go back to your works"
Isabelle commanded the servants, surprising them. She held her front of the dress a little up and she turned around walking away from them, but before she can fully make her way out of the Ventibule, she turned around facing the servants.
"And be ready to lose your jobs"
After saying this she walked away from the servants.
Next day, the servants in the castle changed, just the butler, the head servant and Lord Santiago stayed unchanged.
Isabelle turned everything upside down in the castle.
The All new servants in the castle feared her and they do have a reason to feel fear towards her.
In her office, she is sitting on her working chair, her hands held together on the large desk, her eyes serious, she opened her lips and said
"Come out!"
Then suddenly like a black smoke without any scent started emerging up from the dark and shadow corners of the room.
Those black smoke moved towards the large desk of Lady Isabelle.
Those black smoke took form in a tiny monsters.
They all greeted Lady Isabelle
"My lady"
These tiny monsters are the one who makes sound in a empty house or room, fly things and watch souls.
They are harmless to human life, but because of these tiny monsters, human fear going in the abandoned places or houses.
Without looking up to them, Isabelle asked them.
"Any one know where Andrew is?"
"Andrew, my lady?"
There was no need to tell theses monsters who was Andrew. Cuz they are the one who live inside the statues as their house and they see everything and ear every detail. So, they know every detail about who Andrew.
They are the eyes and ears of Lady Isabelle.
There are more monsters even more stronger compare to each other.
She lifted up her gaze to them, moving her chair to the side.
"Yes, there is no need to explain the situation, is there"
"We saw him, when he was with Lord Santiago, my lady"
One tiny monster stated.
Isabelle questioned that tiny monster, lifting up her one eyebrow.
"That's it?"
"Anyone got something else to state?"
She questioned the other tiny monsters.
"No, my lady, that was his location, we saw"
Isabelle ordered them.
"Andrew is missing, go and find them and come back with every minor detail which lead us to Andrew"
Every tine monsters persent in the room, vanished into the thin air.
Then after some hours, one tiny monster appeared in the office room.
"My lady, I found a arrow done with magic, we don't seem to be able to touch it"
"Where? You seen the arow?"
Isabelle questioned.
"In the garden, my lady"
"Okay, let's go, guide me the way"
Isabelle walked passing the scared servants, some of them already leaving the castle for the sake of their life.
Arriving at the spot of the arow.
The arow was stuck on the wood of the tree, it's half body outside and the pointed area inside of the wood, it's body had a red ribbon tied in the back.
The letter was not tied to the arow, it was stuck in the pointed area of the arow as if someone first tossed the letter in the air then aimed the arow on it, making it stick to the wood of the tree with force.
Isabelle knew only person who can do this and it is none other than the Duke Vladimir.
She pulled the arow out from the wood of the tree, throwing it on the ground, the letter had a hole in the middle because of the pointed side of the arow.
She opened the letter, reading it.
"I am waiting, my lady at my Castle"
Writing clean and beautiful, written with a expensive pen, the letter had a floral fragrance in it and coloured in pink.
"Duke Vladimir"
She mumbled the name and crashed the letter in her fist, burning it up in the air.
She walked inside the castle.
"Butler, prepare the carriage, I need to go"
"Yes, my lady"
The butler bowed and prepared a carriage for the lady.
"Where, my lady?"
The carriage man asked.
"Neverwas"
Hearing Lady Isabelle's destination, the carriage man was shocked.
Neverwas was a land where no human want to visit in their lifetime, a place avoided by the most of the population of humans. And here, the lady wanted to go to Neverwas.
Neverwas has a deep silent history.
Arriving at the Neverwas.
The forest in the neverwas was like a horror movie, terrifying and the road foggy dense, crows in the sky flying here and there, a lot of them.
Some of the crows sitting on the branches of the trees, the carriage man noticed the eyes were bloody red of the crows.
The carriage man always felt like someone was keeping a eye on them, the feeling of being watched.
Suddenly, from the side of the road a big tree fell on the road blocking the path for them.
The horses stopped, and lifted their front legs on the air and screaming, a huge impact came on the carriage, shaking the whole carriage.
The carriage man pulled the rope of the horse, making them stop, Isabelle stepped down from the carriage, to have a look at the situation in front of them.
"My lady, what we will do now? Shall we head back"
The carriage man asked.
"No, you wait here, I will go"
"My lady, it is dangerous for you to go inside this land alone"
The carriage man said in a whisper tone and warned Isabelle.
"Thank you, but wait here or if you spot some monsters coming your way while you are waiting for me here, take the carriage and run"
"All of you heard me"
"My lady–"
"All of you heard me?"
Isabelle repeated her words again to hear a perfect sure reply for them.
"Yes my lady"
The four men who were accompanying the Lady in her journey said together.
