Prophecy of the Twins

by snikenj

Harley and Aravis live completely different lives. Yet they're connected by a strong bond. How can you keep twin half-bloods from one of the Big Three away from each other? You can't. An empathy link arises when Aravis is put in danger, and Harley knows she must save her sister, despite what the prophecy says will happen when they come together.

Prologue

It was dark. Clouds covered the moon and stars.

"No! You can't take her away from me!" Harley, a seven year old girl screamed, "She's my twin sister!"

"Harley!" Her sister Aravis screeched back, "Please Mr., don't take us away! We're all we have left!"

There were two men pulling them away from each other towards different black cars. "No." The one holding Harley growled.

Both girls cried and struggled, but the men were strong...surprisingly strong. All of a sudden, Aravis noticed something odd. The man holding her one last kin, had only one eye. In the middle of his head. He shoved Harley into the black car and began to pull out a long, glittering sword. "NO! Harley!" Aravis gathered all her strength and broke free of the man's grip. She grabbed her one possession from the man holding her, a blue bow, and let loose an arrow, hitting the cyclops in the eye.

Both girls covered their eyes as the monster burst into shimmering dust. "Agh!" Aravis was grabbed by the shoulder and thrown into the car. The man holding her immediately drove away. "No, Harley! Wait! Don't go!" She banged on the windows. I'll never see my sister again, she thought.

Harley was gone though, running into the woods, as far away as possible. She thought Aravis was right behind her. But when she turned around, she was alone.
