Destiny Fulfilled

(Alex's POV)

Jake thought Rose had destroyed all of the Huntsclan, but you can't destroy energy. When Rose made that wish, we received all of the Huntsclan's power. I am still stronger since I received the strength of the Huntsclan, but Rose can still be smarter from getting the brains. If Jake had never wished that Rose had never been taken, the energy would have been spread all over the world. But Rose lived – so I lived. We are the Prophecy Sisters; it is now clear and true.

(Normal POV)

Narrator (N): Alex walked all around trying to find someone she knew. No one at all.

Alex (HG): The Huntsclan wasn't destroyed, they just disappeared. (Whispers) Master? (Falls to knees crying) He's gone! His wife's gone! The Northern Huntsman, my dad, Jamie, #'s 2 and 3, all of the guys, my teachers, the whole set of the North, even poor little Tali! Rose doesn't remember anything about me, about her, about us! I'm alone –I'm all alone.

N: Alex had never felt this way before. Even at the horrid foster homes, she had someone next door, and she had a bit of comfort. Now, there really was no one. Her mother had been killed, and her Huntsclan family destroyed by the hands of someone she had trusted with her life.

HG: What am I going to do? Do I maybe have other family like Rose? No. It's not likely. (Walks half a mile away) No, there's more important things than finding family right now. I need to see if anyone's left at the Huntsclan.

NORTHERN ACADEMY

HG: No one – just as I suspected.

N: Alex noticed an open door across the room. '#206 and #207'

HG: Tali? (Alex ran across the room into the young girl's bedroom) Tali?

N: There was no one. The only noticeable things were bed sheets messed up and old homework scattered across the desks.

HG: Oh Tali, you must have been so scared! I'm so sorry. I couldn't protect you! I will find a way to make this better, I promise. There's always a way to reverse spells – always. Please, don't loose faith in me. You and your friends be safe and happy – wherever you are. It'll be okay.

N: Alex walked once again across the barren room and looked at the homework sheets.

HG: Cerberus Test… A plus.

N: Alex smiled.

HG: Cerberus?! He has to still be alive! I have to get back to him! All of the creatures we've kept. Oh no! What if the Dragons have already gotten him? No, they can't handle him. Only I can handle him. (Pauses) Tali, I won't give up.

SOUTHERN ACADEMY

N: No one. Alex could still feel the pain that had taken place. Everyone was just gone. She went upstairs to look in the Southern Huntsman's room. There were two books sitting on his pillow. How to Make a New Huntsman and his personal journal.

HG: Master was thinking of stepping down? (Flipping through the pages of the first book) Should I look through his journal? There are no secrets, but it would be disrespectful. Wait, this is hard times, and I have to see if there's a message in there to help survive.

N: Alex examined each page not seeing anything new. Hunts slayings, new students … but the last thing he wrote.

HG: I don't believe it.

N: It read:

'Dear Journal, I am considering Alex as out next leader. My injuries I received earlier are severe, and I don't believe I can handle the responsibility. She is the only one showing enough strength She is the only one showing enough strength in body and soul to understand where I'm coming from. Tomorrow night, if the North screws up – like they normally do, we will have a new Huntswoman of the South. I have hidden her new uniform under my bed. She'll be so happy.

Alex looked under the bed and pulled out a large box. The regular uniform was expected, but the skull was another thing. She recognized it.

HG: This was my first dragon slain. What started it all.

N: Alex placed just the skull over her head. It was warm and comfortable. She'd never get to wear it though. So she read the journal further:

'I am so proud of her. She is truly the best addition we've ever had. Oh no, something's wrong, I've got to go.'

The last sentence was almost as chicken scratch. Alex knew what it meant. She removed the skull, and left to find her puppy.

CERBERUS'S CAGE

HG: Hey there boy! (They all hug each other) Boy, I've got some bad news for you. I have to return you to Hades boy.

N: Cerberus acted like he wanted to play, bouncing around and wagging his tail, thinking Alex was kidding.

HG: (Refusing to join) I'm sorry boy. I can't take care of you anymore. Hey, at least it's not as bad as the Dragon Council.

N: Cerberus barked angrily at the thought of dragons.

HG: I know boy. (Giggling) That's my boy. You do remember Hades – right? He took good care of you, and that's your home.

N: He did seem to remember. Slowly, Alex transferred him to the Underworld, and they kissed one another goodbye.

Hades (H): Ah, Huntsgirl, so nice of you to stop by. You're just the person I've been meaning to talk with.

HG: What do you want Hades?

H: Want? Why Alex, I'm shocked that we don't have a better relationship.

HG: Hades, last time I worked with you, you betrayed me, and I was almost killed.

H: Alex, you're killed almost every day of your life. Don't act like it was such a crime.

HG: I brought back Cerberus.

H: (Perks up) Really? You…You have him?

HG: I cannot take care of him any more Hades. The Huntsclan's temporarily out of order, and it would not be fare for me to keep him without food or decent shelter.

H: Well, I know that you two were close, so stop by if you ever need something. I'll give you a few minutes to say goodbye.

HG: (Turns to Cerberus) Hades should be glad to you back boy. You be good. (Walks away) Okay, time to find Rose.
