It was a few days later of December the 21st; classes all over Dwelf had ended for the Christmas holidays. Katelyne was walking home from school down the Steampunk grey atmospheric streets of downtown Nona with her friend Daniel. The streets had a fresh blanket of snow but the snow was yucky grey downtown. Daniel was slightly taller than Katelyne, was human, eighteen, had long blonde hair, light green eyes, and peach skin and was thin. Katelyne was wearing her light brown Victorian pants, long black fingerless Steampunk gloves, black leather Steampunk boots, a white dress shirt, a red Steampunk corset, a well-worn black leather jacket and a blue scarf. Daniel was wearing a red steampunk pirate coat, a black dress shirt, grey Victorian pants, long Steampunk boots and black Victorian gloves.

Katelyne hated downtown. It was dirty and she would see the strangest people there. Even once someone tried to sell her crack but she just walked away. Katelyne and Daniel were still walking down the street. They were chatting about school and what they were going to do for the Christmas break.

Katelyne was going to stay home with her two brothers and her mother and they would watch some Christmas classics like the ancient tale of "The Christmas Carol" or "The Nightmare before Christmas" like they did every year. They didn't have any other family just the four of them.

Daniel was going to go to the city Phrell that was once the city of London and Brantfort to see his Grand Parents and his aunts and uncles who all lived there. Daniel and his parents were the only people in their close family who lived outside of Phrell.

They still chat, after ten minutes they finally got to Katelyne's house, which was in a suburban area just outside of Downtown. Katelyne walk up to her house and gave her blonde human friend a hug.

"Have a great holiday" Katelyne said to Daniel in a sweet and whispered tone.

They stopped hugging; Katelyne walked up to the door of her place and opened the door. Daniel just continues walking down the street. They lived pretty close together.

Katelyne walked into her home. Her home was an averaged sized home in the suburban area of Nona, it was warm and cozy, outside from the bitter cold. Katelyne took off her boots and placed them near to door with the other boots and shoes. She walked into her living room. A fire in the fireplace was burning in an orange and yellow masterpiece. She threw her leather jacket on the couch and she took off her corset and threw it with her leather jacket.

She felt something cold shiver down her spine. She started to hear whispers.

"MUM!" Katelyne shouted in fear.

No one was there to answer her. Her brothers were still in school and her mother was still at work.

Katelyne would sometimes hear whispers in her house, when she was alone. Either when she got home from schools or when she would sometimes wake up in the middle of the night and her mother and her brothers were still asleep. Once she woke up in the middle of the night and heard the whispers she went over to her mother's room. She noticed a sort of golden glowing was coming from her mother's closet where she would keep her coats. She looked in the closet and saw the glowing was coming from her mother's long red trench coat, but when she reached towards the coat the glowing and the whispers stopped. She didn't want to wake her mother so she just went back to bed.

This time Katelyne was alone, the whispering has been going on for as long as she could remember. Her brothers never heard the whispering and nor did her mother.

She knew it had something to do with the trench coat or something in it. Katelyne quickly walked upstairs and crept over to her mother's room. She then crept over to her mother's closet and opened it. The long red trench coat was glowing. Katelyne quickly grabbed the coat and it stopped glowing and the whispers disappeared. She searched in the pockets of the coat. She felt something cold and metal brush up against her hand. She grabbed the cold metal thing and look at it. It was a golden ring with strange engraving on it. It was very clean and shiny. She looked at the trench coat, it was in a great condition as if was newly bough, but her mother had it for years, before Katelyne was even born. She ran to her room with the ring and the coat in both of her hands and she slammed the door close and locked it.

Katelyne sat on her bed just looking at the ring and the coat. They seem to have a strange aura coming off of them it was a bit bewitching. She placed down the coat on her bed and she slowly placed the ring on her ring finger. It was a perfect fit. The symbols on the ring started to glow. Her eyes started to flutter and her vision start to become darker, she soon fell down on her bed and passed out.

Katelyne soon woke up, but she wasn't in her room. She was in a very strange place. The floor was like a black and white chessboard and it seemed to be moving. The walks were pitch black like a starless night sky, but there were burst and swirls of light appearing and disappear. The ceiling was a golden eye that kepy opening and closing, it was really freaking her out. The room was long or short, she couldn't tell, it was like her mind was playing a trick on her. She was the only thing in the room, but a short and thin human man in a fine brown tweed suit soon appeared. He had a big and friendly smile on his face. His hands were together and his head was tilted to the right a bit.

"Hello?" Katelyne asked the man sounding scared and confused.

"You must be Katelyne? Is that right?" the man asked Katelyne sounding very calm and strong, he had a British accent.

Katelyne froze in fear. She never ever met this person. He seemed rather alien to her. She never heard a person who had an accent like his.

Europe and Asia had become one continent called Kwae, which hadn't been in contact with Dwelf in over two hundred years. The children of Dwelf had no knowledge of Kwae or anything outside Dwelf.

"W-w-who are you?" Katelyne asked the Kwae man sounding really scared.

The Kwae man chuckled. "There is no reason to be scared child. I'm called the Whisper" the Kwae man told Katelyne really emphasizing "the Whisper". He reached into the inside pocket of his tweed coat. Was he going to pull out a knife? A gun?

Katelyne's heart was racing, she was going to run, but where would she go. There was no windows or doors. It was like a prison. She closed her eyes hoping a miracle would happen.

"Can you please open you eyes?" the Whisper asked Katelyne sounding very calm and friendly.

Katelyne opened her eyes. The Whisper had a brown raggedy leather notebook in his hand, he was leaning over and he was offering the book to Katelyne.

She crept towards the Whisper and grabbed the book. The Whisper let go of the book. Katelyne started to feel sleepy, her head started to spin and her vision was darkening. She fell over and passed out. The Whisper just stood there and smiled. "Good luck" he whispered.

Katelyne soon woke up in her room. She gasped it was just a dream. She looked at her hand and saw the ring was still on her finger, but it wasn't glowing anymore. She grabbed the coat and started to examine it, but a brown raggedy leather notebook fell out of the coat. Katelyne's heart was starting to race it wasn't a dream. She quickly placed the notebook under her bed so no one would read it or find it. She started to hear the door open and foot steps coming into the house.

"Kit kat, we're home!" her mother yelled in a singsong voice.

Katelyne's mind started to race. She quickly took off the ring and placed it back into the coat, she ran out of her room with the coat in her hands and ran to her mother's room. She quickly hung up the coat and raced downstairs. She ran up to her mother and gave her a great hug.

Her mother smiled and hugged her daughter. She looked down at her daughter, she could see some fear behind her eyes but she knew from what her fear was from.
