"Hello Caspian." Chakuro bowed right back, "Unfortunately my friend and I have some other business to attend to and would very much like it if you took a long walk off a short pier. Thank you." he smiled graciously and left before Caspian could process what he said, dragging Charlie along with him. He faced her, "I'm just glad he didn't say anything about my horns. What about you? Are you feeling well?"
"I'm, uh. . . fine." Charlie said absentmindedly, looking over at August. Caspian hurried towards them again, instead with five more people. Probably friends. He swept in front of them gracefully, blowing a few strands of white blond hair out of his face.
"See, I've come to witness you twins and you're curses." Caspian said, practically spitting out the last word. "I can't wait until you get sent into that arena."
Charlie knew what he was doing. He was trying to get her mad. It was working.
Genie walked up to Charlie, Chakuro, and the newcomer. She held a hand out to the newcomer, "I don't believe we met. You are?"
"Another one of you?" Caspian said, shaking his head as his friends laughed behind him. "More cursed children." He finished, a huge smirk on his face. That was it. He had crossed the line.
Charlie took a step closer to him, her green eyes narrowed and dangerous. "Tell me, prince. What are you scared of? What keeps you up at night?" Charlie said quietly, most of the ballroom looking towards them. She felt strings of energy come of of him. Fear. Caspian's eyes widened slightly.
"Got it." Charlie said, a small smile spreading on her lips slowly.
Genie held her hand back and lifted it palm side up before lighting a small flame, "You really want to go down that path bubbo?"
"Woah, we should calm down." Chakuro patted Caspian on the back, "Why don't you come with me?"
"Stay away from me, demon! Or I'll tell my guards to kill you and your brother." Caspian shouted, inching away from her slowly. Charlie pulled on the strings of energy, creating an illusions of hundreds vipers slithering across the marble floor of the ballroom. Multiple lunged at Caspian, biting his legs. She concentrated, making the pain real, almost as if poison was racing through his veins immediately.
"Don't you dare touch my brother." Charlie growled, her voice low and quiet, barely louder than a whisper. As she stood there, she felt it. That burning sensation coursing through her veins. Only this time it was stronger than most times when she made an illusion. She strengthened the illusion even more, pulling on the strings of fear around Caspian.
Chakuro quickly took control of everyone in the room, including Caspian, grasping at their body lines, straining to hold on to all of them. Forget. Forget what has happened. This never happened, you have no memory of it.
"Guards!" Caspian shouted as he scooted back, running into shrieking noblewomen. "Get her brother, now!"
"Don't touch him." Charlie repeated, throwing another illusion of pain over Caspian, like thousands of fires torching his skin. Why did she feel so excited? Why are you hurting him? Be like your brother; kind, thoughtful, quiet. A voice spoke up, trying to calm Charlie down. She couldn't stop.
Genie froze her fire went out.
( Sorry, I disappeared )
Caspian's face paled, and Charlie withdrew her power. As she stepped back, only then did she realize that she had a huge grin plastered on her face. She looked around, meeting everyones frightened gaze. They were scared. Of her. There was so much fear in the room, she could feel it tugging at her powers. No. Stop, Charlie.
Noa took flight from August’s arm and flew to Charlie, landing on her arm. She tilted her head and cawed quietly, as if asking What are you doing?
"He-I-I didn't mean. . ." Charlie shook her head and walked away, towards one of the doors that led towards the castle's garden. She had shown the nobles what they had wanted to see. A cursed, dangerous twin. She could barely see where she was going as a throbbing pain filled her head.

( Yeah, it's open if you'd like to join )
( But we'll probably close it after you join )
((I'll join then!))
//yeah sure
Noa squawked a little and followed her, soaring a bit above.
Charlie heard Noa's squawking, but ignored it as she continued down one of the paths. She had lost control over her powers. But, what scared her the most is that she enjoyed hurting Caspian. Seeing the strings of fear around him. Her power was getting darker with each use.
