Another Bit For You!!!?>!>!>!>!

I got tired of stalling, so here ya go, even though the scene isn't finished yet

The next morning

Emma groaned, pulling the covers up over her head in an attempt to hide from the sun, which had ever so kindly decided to shine directly in her eyes. Ugh! Why did it have to be morning? She didn’t want to get up and go to school, even though she knew she had too. Any more sick days and she’d be held back, that’s what the principal had told her. What a jerk…
Yawning, Emma reached for her phone, so she could check the time, but her cell phone was not on the night stand where she’d left it. Another moment or so of blindly groping around for it confirmed that. And since when did she have a table lamp? Thoroughly confused, Emma opened her eyes. This was not her room… Sitting bolt upright, she looked around. High ceilings, huge bed, full length mirror, marble floors? This was most definitely not her room. “Oh my god….” WHERE THE HELL WAS SHE?!
She couldn’t remember anything about last night, except for that weird dream. Just as she was starting to panic, Emma noticed footsteps outside the door. Her mind racing, the first thought that entered her mind was that the Australian government had finally passed The BR Act and she’d been kidnapped so they could force her to participate in the Sydney edition of Battle Royale!?!....Which was both terrifying and highly unlikely, but then again she wasn’t exactly thinking very clearly.
Before Emma had the chance to even contemplate getting a grip on herself, something jumped at her. “Reow!”
Emma screamed. “Wah!” She attempted to jump out of bed so she could escape from whatever it was that had attacked her, but it seemed that during the night the bed sheets had twisted themselves around her legs in such a way that prevented her from accomplishing anything other then knocking herself out of bed.
Upon hearing the commotion, Eclipse burst into the princess’ room, almost literally .5 seconds after she’d hit the floor, sword drawn, ready to defend her from… her pussycat? And the bedspread? “Princess…” He couldn’t help but laugh a little as he crossed the room to help her up. It was a funny sight.
After seeing the vague, blurry form of Eclipse coming toward her, through the fabric of the blanket, Emma switched immediately to defense mode. She’d only taken one self defense class in her entire life and it had taught her two very important survival techniques, One, Scream. And two, Never give up!
“Are you alright, Princess?” Eclipse questioned pulling the blanket away from her face, only to be punched square in the nose without hesitation.
“GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!”
Oww!” Eclipse mentally screamed. She hit me?! He hadn’t expected that, that was for sure. But he recovered from the attack quickly and grabbed Emma’s wrist. “Princess!” This was partly because he wanted to make sure he had her full attention but mostly because he wanted to keep her from throwing the table lamp at him.
Emma whipped around to hit him again, “Let go of me!” But for some reason she stopped when she saw his face. He was cute. Gorgeous actually. He had long, silky, black hair that faded into a deep purple in the bottom couple of inches and allusive dark blue eyes. This man was easily a hundred times better looking then Jason ever was and for some reason she got the strange feeling that she could trust him…. Maybe he was the one that had saved her from the truck?
“Are you okay?” He repeated an air of concern in his voice.
Emma nodded mutely in reply. She was still trying to figure him out.
Eclipse let out a sigh of relief, “Good.” And released Emma’s wrist.
“Who are you?”
“Oh, my apologies Princess. I’ve not introduced myself,” And with that Eclipse jumped to his feet and bowed to her. “My name is Eclipse Deimos. I work for your parents.”
