Looking at the ship's navigation then at the planet that was just outside her galaxy, she sighed knowing that it was time.

A coo sounded in the seat beside her, she turned to look at the newborn baby, her baby, the child born of two completely different worlds; this Blue Planet & an entire galaxy filled with wonder.

She took a shuddering breath as her brown eyes looked up at her innocently. She hastily turned back to the planet, afraid that she would change her mind before it was too late, this is the only way for this little one to be safe from the war that is to come.

She turned her ship to the dark part of the planet, & used the ship's cloaking device to render it invisible to the planet's inhabitants.

She landed the ship in the clearing, keeping the ship cloaked, she turned to her baby who fell asleep on the way down & was slumbering peacefully. She allowed a small yet sad smile graced her features as she used her telekinesis to bring the basket, that was big enough for her child & cushioned on the inside to make it comfortable, over to her.

Getting up, she set the basket down on the seat that she once occupied and unstrapped her baby and carefully picked her up so that she won't wake up and gently placed her in the basket & bundled her up to keep warm.

She sighed as she felt sadness grip her heart for what she was about to do, but it has become unavoidable now that darkness is threatening her galaxy, and this world is the only place that hasn't been touched since before the unexpected creation of this beautiful creature that she was giving to this world that needs her more.

She couldn't find the little one's Father anywhere on this planet, but she knows that they will be reunited someday, even without her help.

She felt a tear go down her face as she thought of her baby's Father, how much he reminds him of herself, how they are both different and in search for a way out of their darkness, but staring at this beautiful baby, she knew that her little girl will play a part in bringing balance to these worlds.

Taking a shuddering breath, she picked up the basket and made her way to the landing door and pressed the button & the door lowered to the ground. She walked down the platform & made her way to the house that held a couple who were deemed infertile, never to have children, and sat the basket on the doorstep.

The child still slept soundly without a care in the world, feeling like she was ripping her heart to pieces, she sobbed silently because this child was her only light within the darkness she was raised in.

'Hatred has kept me in the dark, however, the love I have for you and your Father is what brought me back to the light. As long as you exist, I'll use that light to fight the darkness that I must work with.' She transmitted her thoughts to the child before she swooped down for one final kiss upon her forehead, her necklace dangling off her neck, the necklace the baby's Father gave to her before she was forced to leave him.

Knowing that she will not be apart of her daughter's life anymore, she unlatched the crystal necklace from the back of her neck and took it off her person and set it gently beside her slumbering daughter.

Petting the tuft of hair growing from her baby's head, she whispered, "I love you." she swiftly rose to her feet and seemed to glide as she walked back to her ship and boarded it as her child began crying out for her, waking the residents inside. It took everything in her very being not to rush out of the ship and snatch her baby girl back as the couple from within the house opened the front door and saw the little miracle that was left on their doorstep. They picked her up from the basket and soothed her baby, something she herself wishes to do, but couldn't because she has to give her baby a better life than with someone like her, someone who has taken more lives without remorse.

The man of the house looked around the area to see who dropped off this beautiful girl on their doorstep as his wife cooed at the babe, but couldn't see anything, not the ship that is in front of their house. He looked in the basket to see if anyone left a note, but only saw a crystal necklace inside. Picking it up, he examined it closely and saw the babe try and reach out for it, as though it will magically make her Mother come back.

Wanting to get this child inside where it was warm, the woman carried her inside & gently sang to her. The man looked around one last time to find the person that gave this child to them, but found no one & followed his wife inside.

She sensed the happiness the couple were feeling & cried knowing that they will give her baby the love that she needs in order to survive.

Starting the ship up, she glanced at the house one last time and can only imagine the happiness they feel in having a child in their lives. Sniffling and hiccuping, she fired up the ship & flew away from this planet.

'Daughter, you're safe now and safe may you stay

For I have a prayer just for you

Grow my own daughter, and find your way

Love and be loved, my girl

Punching in the coordinates, she looked back at the Blue Planet that will be her daughter's safe haven before jumping to hyperspace, leaving behind the light that she cherishes.

This one popped into my head one night. Tell me what you think, I gives me encouragement to keep going.
