...
Dusk, the time between the day and the night The time where the sun retreats to the other side of the world to give it life while leaving its opposite cold and un inviting. This was the way of the planet itself. One shines, while the other is cast into darkness.
The small cottage sat at the end of a winding road, too perfect pebbles lined it as if something was keeping the seemingly loose stone in place. The trees of the forest seemed to keep a wide birth from it, as well as the only thing that was obscure, was the door, hanging at a odd angle off its hinges.
It was as if nature itself found it to be unnatural.
Coming from within the cottage ,you could make out voices from the distance. An argument of started off low, but grew with every second.
Through the window, light by what seemed to be a lamp. A young woman seemed to be yelling, walking back, holding something pointed in her hand, as two figures in cloaks followed, they seemed calmer almost trying to reason with the nothing is ever quite what it seems.
"I told you, leave me be, leave this house and my family alone!" The young woman shouted.
One of the men, his hood over his head spoke up in a low tone. Never revealing his face."It is your destiny, You have awakened what was said to have died off over a century ago. Accident or not. You are needed, you are key, you and your sister."
"How did you know of my sister?"The young woman growled.
"We knew, When she was born we were informed. We know, they do not. But you on the other hand. You were seen. You have put yourself and your family in danger. Come with us, learn from us, fulfill your destiny!"
The girl gritted her teeth,Glaring at the pair with her icy blue eyes, holding her wand at the man. "I never asked for this, or your order. My family, ESPECIALLY my sister will have nothing to do with your kind!"
The second figure, the voice of a elderly woman spoke next."They will come for you, They will exterminate you, and your family line. You have to be protected! I expect they have already found your parents."
The woman's wand lowered slightly. "My parents...Why?! THEY CANT EVEN USE MAGIC! Theyre muggles! Why would the ministry kill them?"
"Ms Rosen, you know as well as I that astleast one of your parents is as muggle as we are trolls." the man had said."Your father, he holds an ancient bloodline that many fear,Dormant as it was before it has obviously risen again in you, and born within your sister. fear will cause many to act. Now that word has got out about your..transformation. You can see were we are going with this i assume?"
"And the ministry, it is corrupt. The head Auror himself does not even know the extent of lies he is being told. They look to capture and kill you as we speak." The woman spoke clearly and quickly.
"And what of Eliza? She was not born with your 'gift' as you call it? Will you leave her to die?" The young woman asked, fury in her voice.
"She has magic." the woman said."I can feel it in her. She may not be able to awaken the power. But she will not be left behind-"
A crash of a vase was heard at the door frame to the living room, there stood a young girl around 6 or 7 years old. Shielding a much smaller toddler with her arms.
"EHLAYAH! I told you to wait upstairs!" The young woman yelled. The young girl flinched at her sister's tone. "Phraye...We heard yelling..."
The second figure completely turned to the young girl Ehlayah, taking short steps toward her."This is the one, the one with the Natural Oculus."
The young woman, Phraye whipped her wand to the woman eyes seemed to fade in color."Stay where you are, Do not touch my family. I will curse you." As she stood, her eyes faded to a muddled red, four triangle shapes surrounded her iris. The way the triangles positioned in the red made phraye's eyes look like roses.
"Phraye..." Ehlayah Whimpered. "Who are these people...Wheres dad?"
Phraye moved slowly to her sisters, keeping her wand on the two. "Ehlayah, Go now. Go hide."
The two young girls took their sister's warning and ran up the stairs. A door could be heard slamming.
The man laughed."You see, You cannot control it! It comes out in rage! Phraye, we could teach you, we could teach The Natural Oculus, maybe even bring it out in your sister Eliza. You will be known by all! You will be more powerful then any witch or wizard in history!"
"I dont CARE About power i care for my family! For our lives-"
"Then dont be a fool!" the woman shouted. "You all need to come with us. Or they will all be in danger!"
The trio stood at a standstill for a few moments. Phraye was taking long deep breaths, looking between the two. After for what seemed to be an eternity. The male figure cringed at his chest. He took out a necklace that had been hanging under his robe. There was a long golden rose, with a silver snake wrapped around it. The man lifted the rose necklace to a a few inches from his face. The snake itself unraveled, flicking its tounge at the man. For the first time Phraye could see his face. He was a middleaged man with a gaping scar down his left eye. His face was covered in scratches, some burn marks. It was hard to tell what he was feeling, but the way his eyebrows furred made phraye feel as if he was hearing something she could not.
Nodding, the snake coiled back around the rose. Turning back into a necklace which was tucked back into his robes by the man. "Phraye, Your parents have been murdered. We do not have much time. The protective spells we placed around the cottage will not hold up long against the ministry."
Phraye just about dropped her wand. "Mum and dad..are dead?" She whispered.
The woman nodded." Yes, we had members trailing them. We are sorry for your loss."
A single tear escaped phraye's eye she was fighting back the rest. "You can protect them...My sisters, if i join your order..." She quivered.
The man nodded. "Yes. We can. But we must act quickly."He turned to the woman. "Go tell the Thorn that the buds are in blossom. That they will be delivered shortly and to be ready."
The woman nodded. "Yes Clip." With a pop she was gone.
The man removed his hood, as Phraye imagined the injured were far more extensive then what she could see. He dipped a gloved hand in his pocket. Producing a simiar necklace that was hanging under his robes. "Wear this. This is the symbol of your bloodline, As well as your communication with the rest of us. As long as you have this we can find you."
Phraye held out her hand and took the necklace. As she grasped it it burned her hand, she gasped nearly dropping it. Opening her hand she found that the snake had uncoiled, and bit her palm.
"It has your Magical essence. I knows your blood and your wand. The only way it will reckognize another is if you will it to that person." The man had said with a bit of pride. " If you are ever in danger, All you need is to raise your necklace so you look the snake in the eyes and speak. Serpen Rosi. Help will soon follow."
Phraye kept her eye on the snake, swallowing as she looked up to the man. The man smiled. A second before a flash of green hit him square in the back. The color faded from his eyes as he hit the ground.
In the door, stood a man in a long overcoat. A ministry badge on his sleeve. Phraye only had a moment to cast a shield charm and dive out of the way before another flash came toward her.
Phraye ran, ran like she never had before. Her sisters, she had to protect them. They were innocent , they had to be hidden. She got up the stairs, much faster then the ministry man. She turned and pointed her wand at the stairwell."BOMBARDA!" Just as the ministry man hit the bottom stair, the staircase exploded throwing him back into the wall,the sound radiated throught he wood she could hear other voices outside.
"IN THERE I HEARD SOMETHING"
"Hurry someone get in there!"
The ministry. There were more of them. Phraye, scanned the hall. Only one door was shut, the door to her parents room. She prayed they would be in there. Opening the door, she found a desk blocking it from opening all the way. She couldnt help but smile. Ehlayah was smart. She hit the door a few times making the desk move just enough for her to slip in, shutting and locking the door behind her.
"Ehlayah." She said in a harsh whisper. "Ehlayah its me where are you?"
The door to the wardrobe clicked open, There the small raven haired girl peeked out."Phraye.. Whats going on..." she said as she exited the wardrobe
Phraye rushed to the wardrobe, Kneeling in front of her sister, embracing her. "Theres no time, Ehlayah is Eliza there with you?''
Ehlayah nodded which made phraye smile, tears were now falling from her eyes. "You listen to me Lay. You need to go back in there and hide with Eliza, No matter what You do not leave that wardrobe until the coast is clear. Understand? No matter what you may hear."
Ehlayah whispered."What do you..."
"Please Ehlayah." Phraye begged. "Please protect Eliza, no matter what."
A Crunching sound could be heard. It sounded like the stairs were being rebuilt. A repair turned her head to listen to it for a moment then back to Ehlayah. As she did when she first got it, she felt a burning in her hand. Holding her hand in front of her, she saw the necklace shining in the light. She nodded to herself. "Take this, Take it and you will be safe." She jolted the necklace into Ehlayah's hand. Just as it hit the young girl's hand phraye remembered what the man had said. How it would only respond to phraye unless she willed it to someone else. "Ehlayah, if anything happens to me. This necklace is yours. When you leave this waredrobe when it is safe. Look the snake in the eye and recite Serpen Rosi. Do you understand?"
Ehlayah nodded, she began to sob. "Phraye, i dont want you to get hurt. I want to protect you too."
Phraye could hear the footsteps. She held her wand to ehlayah."Muffindo." She shot the same spell into the wardrobe to find Eliza, and a silencing charm just to be safe. Even if they screamed. no one would hear them. Not until the spell wore off. She looked then to her wand. There couldn't be any mistakes. Her magic was in this wand and may be the only way to summon who ever was going to help her sisters. Standing up she shot a spell at the wardrobe. It was a sealing charm. As soon as the wardrobe was closed it would temporarily seal itself until it wore off. Maybe an hour. It would be just enough time. By then the ministry would be gone.
Phraye looked down to Ehlayah who was silently crying thanks to the spell. " Ehlayah..." She gave her her wand and hugged her. "I love you, Give Eliza this." She kissed her on the top of her head, and smiled lovingly.
Phraye could hear the footsteps outside the door now. In a frantic move she practically threw Ehlayah in the wardrobe, shutting the door behind her. Now she had no wand. Nothing to protect herself with. The door outside the room pushed up against the desk as the lock broke, chipping off one of the legs. It was slightly thicker then a wand, but it would serve as a good prop. She stepped on the end snapping it, holding the unbroken end out towards the door.
Just as she did the door exploded, throwing her back into the dresser. She struggled to stand, to meet her attackers. Her foot was broken. The pain was severe. But she would fight to save them both. She would fight for them.
Three men stood at the door, Phraye glared at them with her muddled red eyes. "I wont go down without a fight." She said bravely, holding up the unbroken end of the leg up as if she were about to cast a spell.
One of the men smirked, rasing his wand. "I was hoping you would say that." He growled.
Phraye took choppy breaths. But she would not cry, she would look these monsters in the eyes, knowing that her sisters were safe, that they had no clue where they were. She would die with honor. Even as the green light flashed before her eyes and she faded from life. The memories of her sisters and her parents flooded in her mind. As she fell, she smiled.
She won.
Ehlayah had screamed, Screamed until her lungs were raw, screamed until she lost her voice. But no one could hear her, thanks to her sister. They were safe, The men were gone. She had seen the entire thing through the keyhole of the wardrobe. Watched them murder her, and laugh. They laughed. She banged on the door but the silencing charm her sister cast held true. After a while, Ehlayah just gave up, and Eliza in her arms. She kissed the top of her head, as Phraye had instructed. Giving her younger sister the last gift she could give, love.
Only the burning sensation in her hand broke her from her grieving. She looked down to the necklace. The snake on the rose looked up to her.
She scrunched her lips, holding back tears. She would protect Eliza, With her life. She would protect her as Phraye had protected them both. Rasing the Necklace up to her so she looked the snake in the eyes she spoke.
"Serpen Rosi."
