I started to walk again in the house like always before the human arrived, I still think it was foolish to only ask for a flower, I must have asked for something better, but in this place aren't any flowers, and the ones that exist are only cheap copies, they don't even produce any smell or even some seeds to replicate them, differentiating them from the farming plants or fruits that are created here, and if you ask about the trees with flowers with them, well no, they only give flowers with specific procedures I don't even know, I'm sure he brings some kind of simple flower, it doesn't matter now.

— Gertrude, I need you —From the shadows of the walls a silhouette began taking shape, then it transformed in a black skeleton and was starting to form organs, then muscles and skin, lastly clothes appeared on her, showing the old housemaid Gertrude.

— Yes, my princess, ¿what can I do for you?

— Ugh, I know I am nobility and but I don't get used to seeing you appear in that way, can't you just appear, that gives me the creeps.

— I will try to appear in a less unpleasant way my lady

— ¿What news you have from my father?

— At this moment he is in the Council of the Purgers assisting the reunion.

— Mmmm, all right call me if you have any other news or messages from him, for now, I need something else from you.

— ¿What do you need?

— Prepare a table for me in the lobby and leave some snacks, I will receive someone now and I don't want any servants in the area or nearby.

— But ¿At this hour my lady? I don't deny your orders, but I must say it is strange.

— Just prepare the table, Gertrude, I will give you more instructions later.

— As you wish.

— Ah, and Gertrude, bring me my white dress.

— ¿The casual one with laces?

— You know me too well —I say with a smile.

— In a moment I will put it in your bed and prepare everything else. I will call the cooks to make the snacks and by the way my lady ¿Do you wish for the black heels or white ones?

— Get me the white ones.

— Excellent choice as always, I will get them too.

— While you are doing that, I will go and take a bath.

— ¿Do you need the servants to prepare it my lady?

— No, I will do it, that's everything for today.

— Then I will retire Miss.

After finishing my walk I arrived at my bedroom, my bathroom was inside, so I don't have to go to another room and give away my privacy, I didn't see the dress in the bed yet, she must be occupied with the other things first, I entered the bathroom and prepared the tub with hot water.

— It looks like an old Victorian mansion, but we have pipelines for water.

I took off the formal dress that I always use and put it in the dirty laundry basket that is by the door's side, my underwear is getting a little uncomfortable, even though the maids try their hardest to make something good, they are getting annoying in some parts "I value the efforts of my people, although their faults and deficiencies" I revised the temperature of the water.

"I will be a demon, but still I will not bathe in boiling water"

I searched the flasks with bath salts on the shelf by the side of the mirror and poured them in the water for them to make bubbles, in a minute the water was exquisite, I washed the better I could without help and relaxed a while. I picked a towel that was by the side of the tub to dry myself, I brushed my hair and thought that sometimes I would like to cut it because it's so long, but I remember my mother brushed it for me and the thought would vanish in a moment. After brushing it, I take two parts of it and make a braid and leave the rest to fall on my back and cover my ears, I got out of the bathroom and found the clothes I asked in the bed.

The dress was pearl white, it was a little short and had a design of flowers with thorns that covered almost everything, except for the skirt, the sleeves were transparent with laces of thorns at the ends, the skirt was simple and long enough to reach my knees, but not cover. I looked in my drawers for a decent underwear and that I could adapt with the dress. I dressed myself and put on the white heels with bows on the points, to finish I put on some makeup, I remember too when my Mother gave me a dark lipstick for when I would be older, I didn't resist and put it on; when I looked in the mirror I didn't believe it was me...

— Wait... ¿Why did I get so dressed up? ¿and for that human? — I began to imagine things because the image of my face winked at me and instilled me to continue, "¿what is happening? that it's not me, ¿what madness is this?" I didn't refuse this and continued with this personality of mine.

I got directly to the lobby to find the table already there with a tray with everything I asked in the center, I took a seat and waited for the human to appear like it was the first time I saw him. After waiting for 10 minutes I heard the doors behind me open, I didn't turn to see him and waited for him to enter.

— Hello Aishti, hey that is the first time that I look you with... —Before he continued I turned and saw him to the eyes, only to find him sweating and with nervousness plastered in his face —...with that dress, you... look beautiful... Ahem... I brought the flower you asked for.

With a smile, I greeted him— Hello Tyler, please have a seat.

— Emm, Sure.

— Let me see the flower.

— You don't any idea what I have been trough to get it —From his bag, he got out the strange flower that I had seen, it was a rose but pink and with red and white stripes, I haven't seen a specimen like this in any of the botanic books.

— I-is oddly beautiful, so ¿this is a real flower? Who could say it is this delicate and there are even mortal flowers, tell me Tyler ¿Which one do I belong?

— Wait, ¡¿What?! ¿what are you talking about? ¿Is this some kind of rhetoric question?

— Is a simple question, you don't have to be so nervous —¿Why I said that? that it's not me, I can keep doing this game, but the feeling I have for this is bad.

— Right, I thi... Think you are like this rose, strange, beautiful, but capable of hurting if someone doesn't tread carefully... ¿Is that the right answer? — Wow, he knows how to handle words under pressure.

— Not exactly —Why I said that, what the hell is happening, is like I'm not in control of my words.

— Well, I suppose it was not the best answer... By the way, I got something else for you, is a sweet from Earth if you want it, but you have a lot of cookies here in the table — ¿Sweet? ¡Give me, give me, give me! ¡Give it now!

— ¡GIVE IT TO ME NOW! —For a moment I retook control.

— Ok, calm down, here, take it... it's a Twinkie.

— ¿Twinkie?

— Yes, it's a cake filled with cream, give it a try —Mmmm, looks squishy, but it doesn't have any decoration, don't let me down Tyler. It was soft, and inside was... A cream of peculiar flavor... I want more.

— I need more... more — My mind, my body don't belong to me anymore... I only need more.

— ¿What are you saying Aishti? I don't hear you well... Hey, ¿why do you have a white stain in your wing? ¿It's extending?... there is one in your tail too, it's getting bigger, ¿why your head is down? ¿Do you feel bad? ¿Is the Twinkie toxic for you? ¿Asihti? ¿Hey what is going on? that is scaring me a little. Ok now all is white, hey is a pretty neat trick and all but could you maybe stop looking like you will jump on me... —My prey...

— Of course, I am fine Tyler, is just that I need something... from you.

— ¿And what do you need from me? What the... your eyes are dilated and look darker in color... hey, really, ¿What's gotten into you?

"I can't wait anymore... I need it... your energy... I need... your Soul" By action that was not mine my consciousness was getting hidden deeper in my mind, I was getting locked away in a deep darkness that was swallowing me, terrifying me and calming me at the same time, the Aishti that was in front of Tyler was not me, she was someone else, She took control of my body and even my mind, separating me from reality... I could only see a glimpse from my eyes of how I was jumping on the human before the void took me.
