Hello everyone and welcome to a new excerpt of Demon and Fairy for the Week-end Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday.
In the previous episodes: Seti let the chaos got out of him as the father of his sister's fiance threaten to break the engagement. Wild, he flies to the beach to see the only person near whom he can get rid of the Chaos without pain, the fairy Kallisto in the Human world below his. He can only observe her through a tidal pool. But this time, she is in danger. Trying to rescue her from a snake, Seti lands in the world below. However, as Kallisto tries to touch him, he flies away back to his hidden place on the beach and listen to Kallisto's conversation with her best friend Kelpie who once again proposes to her and is refused. Kallisto needs to choose between Kelpie or going back to the fairy world to marry prince Kordelius. As the night comes, Kallisto goes home and so does Seti and of course his parents are all weird... (Remember, Seti used his forbidden power and left without an explanation... ) Then Seti was mysteriously pushed in his room, in the dark and apparently turned blind. For the past few weeks, Seti is trying to control the Chaos who wants to take over his body. We had some flash back to explain the relationship between Seti and the Chaos. Now Seti seems to be in control again.
Here are my 8 sentences, we start where we left off last week. Now that the Chaos has calmed down, Seti is looking for the way out.
He heard his stomach crawl.
“How long have I been here already, are they going to feed me or are they planning to keep me starve to death?”
He wondered how long it would take to die this way.
He passed his hand on the wall where the window should have been. There was a difference of temperature between the normal part of the wall and the magical part. It was really a tiny difference, but it would be enough.
“Don’t tell me that they are that stupid,” he said.
He crossed the room to go to the door and slid his fingertips on the border between the wall and the place where the door should have been. It was the same. The door’s temperature was slightly higher than the temperature of the walls around.

Answer to last week comments.
You'll see soon how Seti is going to get out. Things tend to be easier when the Chaos doesn't get in the way. The problem is how long is it going to stay quiet?

It sounds like Seti is back in control and is thinking things through. I love all of the unanswered questions in this story and can't wait for the answers to be revealed.
