A woman, covered by a thin blanket, slept in a school bed. She didn't have a house of her own, so she slept here every night. It didn't really matter. She couldn't usually sleep anyway, and no one bothered her, so she didn't really care.
The girl's light blue hair flowed down the side of the bed and formed small ice crystals on the floor where it touched the wood. Her eyes suddenly opend and she sat up in bed. She looked around cautiously. <Who's there?> she asked with her mind, not expecting an answer.

The woman moved out from under her covers and looked around again, putting on a long, black cloak that barely touched the floor. <Answer me.> she thought, loking around once more.

(oh... oops... Well, what if she's still asleep then? I can modify!!! *looks hopefully*
Actually, I was thinking of something like this:
Halesia, the woman, woke up in her dream, as in she's still asleep but she thinks she's awake. So she would still be dreaming.
Will that work?)

(Yeah. It works. My post) But then world around girl turned and changed. After moment she stood in meadow with long, green grass and beautiful flowers, blue, clear skies above her and butterflies.... Butterflies was everywhere. In all colors that had ever exsisted or will they flew around like shiny gems. And in the middle of all this beautiful place sat girl. Her hair was white and curly, her clothes was white too. It was hard to tell in what color was her eyes, blue haired girl was to far from ehr, but they were light too. "Hello." Girl said and got up. Her voice was soft and friendly. It didn't hide anything. On girl's shoulder sat big, purple butterfly that looked more like from tale as from real life. "I wanted to show you something." Girl said as walked closer. "I really want to see it alive but not in my power is to let it live." Now she was close to girl that slept. In her hands was beautiful, blue butterfly. Maybe most beautiful of all those that flew around. Only it was dead. "Do you know what it is?" Girl asked, looking to butterfly with sad smile.

The woman who was sleeping, or slept, stood in front of her. She looked down to the butterfly. "No, I do not know what that is." she answered simply. "It is a butterfly." she added, trying hard to look away. But she couldn't look away. She stared at its lifeless form, and suddenly felt sad.

"It's your hope. It is your dearest of hopes." Girl looked up to her. "And I know that it can come true if you believe in it. But you let it die. It has slept here long. But now you can bring it back to life. Only you, no one else." Girl looked straigh in young women's face. Her eyes was very strange - like glass, like mirror. ANd girl seen some reflection in them. only what was it? (In Quelia's eyes you can see your soul. For example evil person will see some monster, rude and dumb people can even see animal or something else dumb and disgusting.(Even if real life they are incredibly beautiful) But those who are clear and good in heart will see what they truly are(At you iminigation - from fairies to nymphs and other beautiful living creatures(Like deer for boys) Even if they are ugly in real life. I don't know what exatly is Halesia's soul and it would be rude to psot in your place. You know her better.)

(thanks. Also thank you for explaining, otherwise I wouldn't have known what to post! ;P *hugs*)
The girl looked up in confusion. Then her clear blue eyes widened in suprise as her hair blew away from her fragile face. <That woman's eyes...> she thought, mesmerized in the picture shown.
It was a piece of ice. Or rather, a frozen object. It was difficult to see what the object was, since there was such a thick layer of ice around it, but if you looked hard enough, you could see...
Inside the ice was a fragile form, a woman, or maybe a fairy? Whoever she was, she was beautiful. She seemed to sleep peacefully as the ice wrapped around her lovingly, not making her cold in any way. Her clotheless form was wrapped up and curled into a ball, her arms wrapped around her legs. Beautiful, pure white wings, of an angel, kept her warm as they held her. Her sky blue hair (from Halesia's picture) flowed, trapped in the ice.
Halesia gasped, her hand moving to cover her mouth. <That's me!> she thought in suprise. Then she looked back down to the butterfly, and a wave of sadness flooded her. She had never really had hopes, atleast, not that she could remember, yet still she felt compelled to save this poor creature.

Girl smiled. She knew what girl had seen. "Take it. Take it and give it your warmness. Your warmness of soul. This hope has to live." Girl raised hands a bit higher, as offereing butterfly to girl that seemed to dream all this. Talker's voice was soft and sure, sshe knew what she is saying. As they talked, some candles slwoly started to fly to girl with mirror eyes. They stopped behind her. There was blue, green, red and even one black candles. Their light wasn't bright but it give some strange warmness. (Youa re wecome! *hugs back happily*)

The dreaming girl took the butterfly hesitantly, until it was suddenly cradled in her fragile hands. She looked down to it, and felt something strange, that she hadn't felt in a long time.
And for the first time in 20 years, she smiled.

Girl raised hand and purple canlde showed up in it. "I am glad you let it live." She said. "But now you have to leave soon. And, yes, I am so sorry but your Hope has to stay here. yet, always thread will be between you and it. I promise I will always take good care of it. But you has to do the same." Girl smiled a bit.

The woman looked up to the girl. "What is your name?" she finally spoke. Before, it sounding as if her thoughts had become words, but now her mouth moved and she spoke. Her voice was pure and melodious. It was amazing how melodious her voice was, and it seemed as if she hid it often.

<How long was last time when someone asked my name?> Girl thought and closed eyes for second. Then, with smile, she looked back at young woman. "My true name is Quelia but those who comes from your World calls me Hope Bringger" She said, knowing that she should not tell her real name. But something inside her terrbily wished to hear her real name again... Candles seemed to make circle aroun girl's head. She looked back at them and whispered something. Too quiet for girl to hear but it almsot looked that candles obeyed what girl had said. They flew higher, and still circle, flew for second. Then they dissapeared. Only purple candle stayed in fragile hand of girl. (When Halesia leaves she can try to find something about Quelia or Hope Birngger in library or ask her teachers....)

(ok. But it will be wierd to hear her speak... In all the time she's been there, she hasn't spoken a single word... They think she's mute or something...)
The woman smiled. "Thank you, Quelia. My name is Halesia, and I hope to meet you again." her voice was kind as the image in her mind faded. She was waking up.

(Alright, wrote it down. Your choice. ) Quelia waved a bit. There was soft smile on her lips. Last thing what Halesia saw before waking up was blue butterfly, flying happily. It almost seemed that little spark trace is behind it... But maybe it was jsut a sunlight.

Halesia awoke smiling. She sat up in bed and dressed. Her first class would be soon. She'd better hurry.

(ok.)
Halesia hurried to her first class, and her day continued as usual. But when she slept that night, her dreams were filled with visions of lost memories and forgotten dreams.

For second she saw Quelia. She was standing at strange tree. In place of leaves it has candles. Candles in all world's colors. Thousands of candles. It was beautiful and strange in the same time. Quelia was looking at some light blue, almsot white candle that suddenly started to flame. And on Quelia's shoulder sat beautiful blue butterfly. Gilr looked up to dreamer for second and gave a smile to her. For moment Halesia seemed to hear "Thank you" but maybe it was jsut an ilussion.

Halesia smiled back to her and slept well. When she awoke, she decided to find out who Quelia was, and what she was known for, and at the first possible chance, she went to the library.
