The girl lay curled up on her bed, a tear running don her furry cheek. She really messed up this time....
She sighed and closed her eyes
and the memories came
Faintly at first, vague images and voices
"She really is a perfect child..."
"You have a new little sister!"
"Its so beautiful! I shall wear it everyday!
"She started it!" "no he started it!"
"I wuv you big sista...."
She saw herself as a younger girl, curtsying politly to someone "Hello, my name is Clarissa, Im six and a half years old! Its a pleasure to meet you!"
Clarissa..... that was her name...
She opened her eyes and turned onto her back, wincing slightslly at the discomfort of her tail beneath her
she gazed up at the white ceiling with ice blue eyes, which were no longer blank
She remebered her 2 siblings... two of the others....
Her younger sister Tabitha....timid, often a crybaby, rather ugly compared to her older sister, yet she admired her...
her brother Lenny.... often loud and annoying and often bothered her...
She remebered her mother... she was very beautiful and fair....
She remeberd the way her Father used to be....
she remebered one night....
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You mean all these people are our ancestors, father?" clarissa asked, looking up at the row of portraits
"Of course! Look, there is your grandmother, Vivian Wilderstone the second"
"Why does she look almost exactly like my great great grandmother?" clarissa asked, looking at the picture of vivian the first
"well, that always was a mystery..."
she giggled "oh look, theres your picture father!"
"Thats right! And you," he put a hand on her shoulder and looked at the space where the next portrait would be "Are the next heir to the Wilderstone Empire!"
she beamed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Clarissa smiled, than her smile faded as she remember the events a few nights later....
