HOUSE THE 1ST HOUSE OF MUSIC AND SOUND
"WELCÏME IN THE FIRST STAGE OF YOUR MISSION. THE BLUE HOUSE OF MUSIC AND SOUND. IN THIS HOUSE
YOUR GUIDE HERE WILL BE THE BLUE ANGEL. THIS IS TARJA TURUNEN, YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO FROM NOW ON"
"YES MY DUTY" THE ANGEL ANSWERED
TARJA SURPISED AND WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT THEY SAID SHE REPLIED
"UMMM...DO YOU KNOW WHY I'M HERE?"
"WE KNOW THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE TOO" THE MAGICIAN ANSWERED
"DONT ASK TOO MUCH CAUSE WE KNOW HOW CURIOUS YOU ARE. AND YOU ASK A LOT BUT HERE YOU'LL HAVE THE PACIENCE
TO SEE HOW THINGS WILL GO ONE STEP AT A TIME AS YOU GO THROUGH THE HOUSES TILL THE LAST ONE THE HOUSE OF
self-knowledge."
TARJA JOKINGLY SHE ASKED WHAT HOUSES THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT AND THE BLUE ANGEL SHOWED HER BY POITING WITH
HIS FINGERS THE 4 HOUSES. THE MAGICIAN THEN DISAPPEARED LEAVING TARJA AND THE BLUE ANGEL ALONE
THE TWO OF THEM STAYIED THERE FOR LONG LOOKING INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES UNTIL THE ANGELS TALL FIGURE NODDED TO
THIS YOUNG SINGER TO COME INTO HIS SMALL BUT NOT POOR HOUSE .THE HOUSE HAD A ENORMOUS HEDGE AND AROUND AND
TREES LEAFLESS WITH ALL THEIR LEAVES COVERING THE GROUND OF
THIS HEAVEN LIKE SCENERY!THE HALL TILL THE MAIN DOOR WAS COVERED BY DRY LEAVES AND THE DOOR EVEN THOUGH THE
HOUSE WAS BLUE AND SMALL IT LOOKED LIKE A DOOR OF A BIG HOUSE. OF COURSE THE HOUSE ALL OVER WAS PAINTED BLUE
AND WHEN SHE GOT IN THERE WAS A NICE SMELL OF DIFFERENT FOOD AND THERE WAS A HUGE TABLE IN IT. TARJA WAS SPEACHLESS
AND LOOKING STRAIGHT TO THE TABLE. THE BLUE NODDED HER AGAIN SO SHE CAN SIT AN EAT SOMETHING. TARJA WAS A LITTLE
PISSED AT HIS NODS AND SAID
"ARE YOU dumb? WHY ARE YOU ONLY NODDING?"
HE LET OUT A SOFT GIGGLE AND SAID
"YOUR TRAINING STARTS TOMORROW. I'LL TALK ABOUT IT LATER BUT NOW YOU CAN ENJOY WHATEVER YOU WANT FROM HERE AND THEN
YOU CAN SLEEP. I PREPARED YOUR ROOM. TOMORROW WE START THE FIRST LESSON. NOW I'M GOING OT REST TO MY BEDROOM"
TARJA WAS STILL CONFUSED ABOUT THE MISSION HE WAS TALKING ABOUT BUT SHE ENJOYED AS MUCH AS SHE COULD THE FOOD AND
THEN SHE WALKED BACK TO HER ROOM. WHEN SHE WOKE UP THE NEXT DAY SHE HAD A REALLY NICE SLEEP AND THERE WAS SUCH A
SUNNY MORNING THAT ONLY A HEAVEN COULD HAVE. SHE WASHED HER FACE IN THE BLUE SINK AND THE BLUE DOORS, EVERYTHING IN
THIS HOUSE WAS BLUE! IT WAS LIKE A REALLY CLEAN LITTLE PALACE. SHE WENT TO SAY GOOD MORNING THANK THE BLUE ANGEL
BUT SHE COULDNT TALK. HER VOICE WAS GONE.
"SO NOW YOU KNOW WHY I WASNT TALKING LAST NIGHT?...CAUSE TODAY I HAVE TO SPOKE FOR THE TWO OF US. LET THE LESSON BEGIN.
IN OUR LIFE WE HAVE TO LEARN TO LIVE WITH OUR NIGHTMARES AND THIS IS A PART OF REALITY. I KNOW YOU LOST YOUR VOICE AND
THIS IS WHAT YOU WERE AFRAID OF THE MOST, RIGHT?"
SHE NODDED YES BUT SHE WAS SAD CAUSE SHE COULDNT TALK NOR SING.
"I'LL PUT YOU ON A TEST" HE SAID THAT HE HAD TO LOCK HER IN A WET ROOM WITHOUT ANY FURNITURES AROUND. SHE HAD TO
CONSENTRATE MENTALY AND WHISPER SINGING THE SONG SHE WAS ABOUT TO HEAR. TO FEEL LIKE SHE SINGS THE SONG WITHOUT
REALLY SINGHING IT. THIS WAY THE LIGHTS WOULD BE OPEN AND SHE COULD FIND HER WAY BACK TO THE BLUE ANGEL. THE SONG
WAS GOING LIKE THIS: I WALK ALONE EVERY STEP I TAKE I WALK ALONEMY WINTER STORM HOLDING ME AWAKE IT'S NEVER GONE…
AT FINST SHE COULDNT SING AT ALL. NOTHING WAS COMING OUT OF HER MOUTH. SHE KEPT CRYING THINKING THAT SHE WOULD STAY
THERE FOREVER IN THIS DARK AND WET ROOM WITHOUT HER VOICE RINGING IN HER EARS. SHE THEN REMEMBERED WHAT THE BLUE ANGEL
SAID THAT SHE WAS TOO STRONG TO GIVE UP. AFTER 3 HOURS LOCKED IN THIS ROOM SHE TRIED ONE LAST TIME. SHE TOOK A COUPLE OF
DEEP BREATHES AND SHE CONSENTRATED LISTENING NOW ONLY HEAR HEART BEATING AND THE MEODY OF THE SONG
"I WALK ALONE EVERY STEP I TAKE I WALK ALONEMY WINTER STORM HOLDING ME AWAKE IT'S NEVER GONE…"
SHE SUCCEDED TO SING AND NOW SHE WAS SINGING WITH THE VOICE OF HER SOUL. IN A HEART BEAT THE LIGHTS OPEN AND THE DARK WET
ROOM TURNED INTO BLUE'S ANGEL HOUSE'S LIVING ROOM
"SEE?" HE SAID "YOU DID IT. AND WHEN I WAS TALKING TO YOU LAST NIGHT YOU COULD UNDERSTAND , LIKE IN YOUR TASK, MENTALY
YOU WON YOUR FIRST AWARD AND YOUR FIRST ENEMY. HER NAME IS FENRIS, SHE'S A SOUL COLLECTOR. HERE'S THE MAP YOU'RE GONNA
NEED IT FOR THE OTHER 3 HOUSES. YOU'LL GO TO ESTIA( HEAVEN)"
"THIS IS MY DOOL...THE ONE I HAD WHEN I WAS YOUNG" SHE SAID
"THAT'S RIGHT TARJA" HE SAID "THAT'S WHY WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE WHEN YOU WERE GETTING LOST OR YOU WERE SCARED YOU WHERE
SQUEEZING YOUR DOLL AND YOU WERE TALKIG TO HER THIS IS YOUR MAP!"
SHE TOOK THE DOOL AND HUGGED HER LIKE SHE DID WHEN SHE WAS LITTLE ONLY SHE COULDNT UNDERSTAND WHERE THE MAP WAS ON THE
DOLL BUT HE SAID IT WOULD BE ACTIVATED BY IT SELF.
"AND YOU SHOULD TAKE CARE OF HER" THE ANGEL SAID
"HER?"
"YOU KNOW...THE FENRIS. SHE'S RIGHT BEHIND YOU ALL THE TIME. YOU DIDNT KNOW? I CANT TELL YOU MUCH JUST KEEP YOUR EYES
OPEN AND DONT LET HER COME CLOSE TO YOU"
HE SAID THAT AND LEAD HER TO THE DOOR AND SHOWED HER WHERE TO GO BUT SHE HAD TO SEE THE MAP FOR MORE DETAILS. SHE THANKED
HIM AND HUGGED HIM. SHE WAS HAPPY THAT SHE DIDNT LOST HER VOICE AND HER DOLL. THE BLUE SMILED BUT strictly like a teacher
HE GOT IN AND CLOSED THE DOOR
THE ROAD TO THE SECOND HOUSE
THERE WAS A HUGE STONE MADE ROAD IN FRONT OF HER. AROUND HER THERE WERE FARMS. A SOFT BREEZE WAS BREAKING THE SILENCE
THAT WAS ENDLESS. A COUPLE OF MOUNTAINS COULD BE SEEN IN THE DISTANCE. SOMEWHERE THIS WAY WAS THE SECOND HOUSE ACCORDING
TO BLUE ANGEL. WHILE SHE WAS WALKING (AFTER 3 HOURS) SHE WAS HUNGRY AND SHE GOT SOME BREAD TO EAT THAT SHE HAD STOLEN
FROM THE HOUSE JUST IN CASE OF EMERGENTCY LIKE NOW EVEN THOUGH HE TOLD HER FOOD WAS FORBIDDEN THERE. TARJA DIDNT HEARD HIM
AND TOOK A SLICE OF BREAD FROM HER BAG WHERE SHE HAD THE DOOL TOO. WHEN SHE BROUGHT IT TO HER MOUTH TO TAKE A BITE SHE
SAW THE THE BREAD WAS SPOILED AND IT HAD WORMS ON THE OTHER SIDE. SHE THREW IT DOWN AND TOOK HER DOOL FROM HER BAG. THE
LITTLE PHOENIX AS SHE WAS CALLING HER. BY THE TIME SHE HELD THE DOLL IN HER HANDS IT STARTED GLOWING A BRIGHT RED LIGHT
JUST LIKE THE BLUE TOLD HER IT WILL DO WHEN DANGER WAS CLOSE. THE FENRIS!
WHEN SHE REALISED THAT SHE PUT HTE DOLL BACK IN HER BAG AND STARTED RUNNING STRAIGHT ON HER WAY. WHEN SHE QUICKLY TURNED AROUND
TO SEE THERE WERE TWO GLOWING RED EYES LOOKING AT HER AND THEN SLOWLY THEY STARTED FAIDING INTO THE THICK FOG. THE MOMENT
SHE TURNED AROUND AGAIN TO CONTINUE RUNNING SHE SAW THE GREEK ROOF OF THE SECOND HOUSE
THE SECOND HOUSE OF HEALING
THE SECOND HOUSE WAS GREEN SO TARJA THOUGHT THE HOSER OF MY SECOND MISSION WOULD BE GREEN TOO AND SHE SMIRKED. SHE WENT TO THE DOOR STEP
BUT THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. SHE RUNG THE BELL AND AN GREEN HAPPY, AND VERY TALKATIVE ANGEL OPENED THE DOOR
"COME N MAKE YOURSELF LIKE HOME. YOU'RE AN ANGEL DO YOU KNOW THAT?"
TARJA AS SHY AS SHE WERE SHE BLUSHED AND LOOKED DOWN SMILING
"I MADE YOU SOMETHING TO EAT" AND HE SHOWED HER THE TABLE A LITTLE BIGGER THAN THE BLUE ONE'S WAS WITH FOOD AND SWEETS. TARJA WAS
SURPRISED
"YOU ANGELS ARE REALLY KIND DO YOU KNOW THAT?"
THE ANGEL BENDED IN FRONT OF HER AND SAID THANKS.
"TARJA," HE ASKED "DO YOU KNOW WHAT IS YOUR SECOND MISSION ABOUT? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA?"
SHE ANSWERED NO
"WELL IN THIS HOUSE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT YOUR HEALING
"OH MY GOD AM I ILL?" SHE ASKED SCARED
THE ORANGE ONE SMILED "NO MY DEAR DONT BE AFRAID. YOU JUST HAVE TO HEAL A WOUND THAT IS IN YOUR SOUL. IT'S BECAUSE OF ALL THE THINGS YOU
HAD IN YOUR LIFE"
TARJA THOUGHT ABOUT IT AND SHE UNDERSTOOD. HE TOLD HER TO EAT ANYTHING SHE WANTS FROM THE TABLE CAUSE THE NEXT DAY WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT
FOR HER. SO TARJA DID. SHE ATE ALL THESE DELISIOUS FOOD IN THE ORANGE DINING ROOM. THE TABLE WAS FILLED WITH ANY KIND OF FOOD SHE WOULD EVER THOUGHT
WHILE SHE WAS EATING SHE WAS THINKING OF ALL THE THINGS THAT COULD HAPPEN TOMORROW IN HER MISSION. EVEN WHEN SHE WAS IN HER BED, TIME TO RELAX SHE
WAS THINKING ABOUT IT. WHAT COULD HE MEAN BY THE WORD HEALING? WOULD SHE BE HURT THE NEXT DAY AFTER THE MISSION?
THE SUN WAS ALREAD UP AND THE ORANGE ONE OPENED THE CURTAINS OF HER ROOM SO THE SUN RAISES COULD SLIP IN. SHE TOLD HER TO WAKE UP AND HAVE BREAKFAST
AND TO PREPARE HERSELF CAUSE THEY HAD TO FINISH THEIR MISSION TILL THE SUN WILL GO DOWN. SHE WHEN TO THE BATHROOM TO WASH HER FACE AND WALKED IN THE
DINING ROOM. SHE THEN SAW A WHITE BOX ON THE FLOOR WITH AN ORANGE BOW AROUND IT. HE ASKED HIM WHAT WAS THAT AND HE JUST NODDED TO HER AND SAID IT WAS
A GIFT THAT SHE COULD TAKE IF SHE WOULD SUCCED. NOW SHE WAS MORE NERVOUS ABOUT HER MISSION. SO SHE ASKED THE ORANGE ANGEL WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO STRT.
HE GOT UP AND NODDED TO HER SO SHE CAN FOLLOW HIM. THEY WERE ON THE BACK YARD OF HIS HOUSE WHERE THERE WAS AN UNDERGROUND ROOM. TARJA WAS SCARED AND
DIDNT WANT TO COME DOWN BUT HE MADE HER SURE THAT IT WILL BE ALRIGHT. HE TOLD HER HE'LL WATCH HER FROM ABOVE SO SHE COULD FEEL SAFE.
THERE WAS A HUGE ROOM WITH AN ORANGE MOVIE PROJECTORLIKE THE HOUSE. EVEN THE SEATS WERE ORANGE.IT WAS PERFECTLY DECORATED. SHE WENT TO SEAT ON A RANDOM
SEAT BUT THE ORANGE ONE TOLD HER TO GO TO AN ANOTHER SEAT THAT WAS SPECIALY FOR HER. HE PLACED HER HEAD ON A PILLOW AND HE TIED HER THERE. TARJA WAS
SCARED BUT SHE SAID JOKINGLY
"ARE WE GOING TO WATCH A MOVIE OR ARE YOU GONNA PULL MY TEETH CAUSE IM NOT REALLY FRIENDLY WITH DENTISTS"
HE DIDNT SAID ANYTHING JUST NODED FOR HER TO BE QUIET. THE LIGHTS WENT DOWN. THE MOVIE WAS THE FINAL DVD SHE RECORDED WITH HER OLD FRIENDS. SHE HAD WATCHED
IT ONLY ONCE CAUSE THE FIRST TIME SHE WAS OVERWELMED.SHE HAD A LONG TIME TO WORK WITH THEM EVEN THOUGH SHE KNEW THEM FOR YEARS. MOMORIES CAME IN HER MIND AGAIN
TEARS RUN FROM HER FACE THAT SHE COULDT TAKE IT ANYMORE
"TAKE IT OFF! TAKE IT OFF!"
HE SAID TO THE ANGEL CLOSING HER EYES.
HE WAS OPENING HER EYES AGAIN AND TOLD HER SHE HAD TO GET THROUGH HER MISSION. SHE HAD TO WATCH IT AND REALISE THAT THIS IS NOW IN THE PAST AND SHE
HAD TO MOVE ON AND SHE SHOULD SMILE WHEN SHE WAS WATCHING IT. IT WAS HARD FOR HER AND TEARS WERE RUNNING FROM HER EYES THOUGH THE ANGEL WAS KEEPING HER EYES
OPEN. THEN SHE CALMED DOWN AND STARTED WATCHING THE MOVIE TOTALLY CALMED NOW SO TILL IT ENDED SHE WAS EVEN SMILING. THE LIGHTS OPEN AGAIN AND THE ANGEL
RELEASHED HER HEAD AGAIN FROM THIS SEAT AND THEY APPEARE DAGAIN BACK TO HIS HOUSE. HE TOLD HER TO WAIT OUT OF THE DOOR. WHEN HE WENT OUT AGAIN HE
GAVE HER THE BOX BACK WITH A BEAUTIFUL WHITE DRESS IN IT.
"YOU HAVE TO WEAR THIS TO YOUR NEXT HOUSE MY DEAR. TO THE HOUSE OF SEASON WINTER. THE WINTER ZONE. AND DONT FORGET TARJA LOOK AFTER HER. DONT LET HER
COME CLOSE.
"WHO IS THAT "HER" ANYWAY?" SHE ASKED
"YOU STILL DIDNT FIGURE OUT WHO SHE IS?" THE ANGEL SAID AND CLOSED THE DOOR OF THE ORANGE HOUSE
WINTER STORM ZONE> THE ROAD TO THE THIRD HOUSE
INSTED OF A BEAUTIFUL SCENERRY AND WARM SUN NOW SHE WAS WALKING IN SNOW AND TREES EMPTY OF LEAVES. IN THE DISTANCE COULD BE SEEN MOUNTAINS WITH WHITE
SUMMITS. BEAUTIFUL BUT COLD. NEVERTHELESS TARJA DIDNT FELT COLD AT ALL MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE WHITE DRESS SHE WAS WEARING, THE GIFT FROM THE
ORANGE ANGEL. SHE WAS SURE IT WAS THAT. SHE FELT IT SO WARM. LITTLE PHOENIX WAS RED NOW THAT MEANT THAT "SHE" WAS CLOSE, JUST A FEW STEPS BEHIND HER.
THE DOLL WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A MAP BUT IT DIDNT SHOW ANYTHING. JUST THE BRIGHT LIGHT WHICH AS SHE WAS WALKING WAS GETTING BRIGHTER. SHE HAD TO RUN FAST
...FASTER! FENRIS WAS BEHIND HER THE WHOLE TIME OF HER JOURNEY BUT NOW SHE WAS CLOSER THAN EVER.
TARJA FOUND A BIG ROCK TO HIDE BEHIND IT BUT IT WASN'T "SHE" THAT WAS FOLLOWING HER STEPS ON THE SNOW. SHE REALISED THAT WHEN SHE HEARD A GROWL OF A
WILD ANIMAL. WHAT COULD THE ANGEL MEAN WHEN HE SAID "SHE" WAS SHE...DID HE MEAN TARJA? BUT HOW? THIS WAS UNBELIEVABLE! SHE WAS REALLY CLOSE ON THE ROCK
THAT TARJA WAS HIDING. NOW IT WAS THE TIME THAT SHE HAD TO BEAT HER SO SHE CAN MOVE TO THE FOURTH AND LAST HOUSE.
THE COLD BREATH OF A WOLF LIKE AND STRANGE ANIMAL WAS TOUCHING THE BACK OF HER NECK FROM BEHIND THE ROCK THAT SHE WAS HIDING. SHE TOOK A SMALL BUT
SHARP STONE WITH HER RIGHT HAND SO SHE CAN ATACK HER THOUGH SOMETHING CHANGED FENRIS'S MIND AND MADE HER GO AWAY FOR NOW. TARJA DIDNT FEELING NOTHING
MORE THAN HER OWN BREATH AND SHE GOT UP, SHE GOT HER DOLL WHICH WAS LAYING ON THE SNOWY GORUND AND CHANGED DIRECTION TO THE LAST HOUSE. THE PURPLE
HOUSE OF SOLITUDE
