"Okay one more story, then off to bed "
"Yay!"
"This is one my dad use to tell me , when I was little " the mother smiled at her five year old daughter holding her rather tightly.
" A long , long ,long ago When the world was created , Strange beings appears among us normal people , these beings weren't normal they could reappear and change their personally and looks ...They could lived for a few days or even hundreds or thousand of years without dying ... among those odds beings was the earth "
"The Earth was the oldest of these beings but one day she fall in love with a normal man and then things became painful " The woman continued her daughter asked "Why mama?"
"Well the earth was immortal meaning she would live forever but the man would not ,It was truth they where ripped apart by fate , However the man was blindly in love with her and more he loved her the more pain he felt knowing they could never be together really "
"Because for the first time the earth felt happiness but He watched her cry in secret ,because she was unable to forget her love for him but she never blamed him for that"
"for the first time in her life the earth knew what loved meant , The earth gave birth to a little boy ;and for the first time she knew what family meant "
"But one day the earth realized that she was not growing any older but her family was "
"For the first time in her life the earth knew what despair meant; time keep passing by ,She decide to make her family immortal , So she learn the art of magic but like all magic something must be given at a equal price" She smiled to her child as she lend back into the pillow " But When she caste the spell something unexpected happen , the earth was dying ... as a price it took her life and the lives of the other like her causing the earth to turned mortal "
""What have I done! ""she cried out to her lover who was dumbfound , as he was unable to help her , he went to the east in search of one of the strange beings like her ;The earth was a guardian for all the all , she was their life source their protector without her they would vanish and die . The days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months her condition wasn't getting any better , and they was no sign of her beloved anywhere"
"With little power she had left she forge a small metallic globe placing a piece of her soul inside " Her mother wiped tears from her eyes "As her love one rushed in with help , she vanished leaving only a a small metal globe ,her son who took on the role of the earth after his mother passed , forming a bonds with the creature that was similar to his mother .It is said only a descent of the earth can wear the necklace and posses it power To be protected and protect is the life of a keeper... but the Earth made a promised that one day she will rise again and be reunite with her family " Claire mother smiled as the five year old sighted .
"Huh? What's the matter ?!Why do you look bored ?" She asked her daughter
"It just seems like you're always telling this story ?" She said
"Oh I supposed I do ...no wonder your so sick of it " She laughed "That a shame I rather love this story ?!"
"I was kidding ! I really like this story too"
"You do "
"Yeah" the girl smiled .
Claire woke up from her dream to ,two small warm bodies, lying next to her. The small children cling to their older sister as if their life depended on it. She gently strokes her sister Marie curly light brown hair, removing the children small chubby hands from her waist. She smiled for a moment before getting up, looking at a clock on her night stand. The twenty two year old slowly got out of bed removing the sleeping children off of her.
Marie yawn in her sleep, almost panicking she could no longer feel her older sister warm next to her. She slowly rubbed her hazel eyes her eyes shifted toward the sound that was coming from the dresser, she gazed her eyes at her sister with a handful of clothes. While their younger brother Fritz curl up ,sleeping under the covers.
"Good Morning" Marie yelled sneaking up Claire who was gather who uniform for work.
"Morning" the older girl yawn still in her night clothes holding her daily attired.
"Claire, What for breakfast?" asked the eight year old girl tugging at Claire pj bottom looking with a sleepy look.
"Well, what do you want for breakfast?" Claire asked her sister, as fritz woke up blinking his blue eyes he got up listening to the sounds of his sister.
" A McMuffin ,some apples slice and a harsh brown with orange juice" pouted the eight year ,"Fritz you want a McDonalds' breakfast too ! Right?"
The small boy just nodded and yawn at his sister request "Sure Mars "Claire agree knowing she probably wasn't the best care taker in the world.
"Yay Where going to McDonalds" Marie ran to living room, on the other sides of the small hall in their two room apartment. Many years past since Claire left her grandfather house , the now young woman smiled at her sibling barley remember that time unaware the upcoming event that will soon pass.
Claire stood in front of the mirror checking her appearance her mind was somewhere else at the moment .
"Hey sis! Do you think I look like Mom?" Mars asked her older sister who smiled , who was pulled other train of thought as fritz who clung to Marie and Claire, between his sisters.
"Hmm?" Claire looked at the refection of her and her sibling for a moment. Unlike Marie and fritz ,Claire looked more like their father tall yet slender, almost very light cream skin . She had inherited his straight chestnut brown hair that reached to her mid back . And one more thing his eyes, yes his chocolate eyes as her mother use to call them. Marie on the other hands was petite with a hint of baby fats around her cheeks .She was the exacted image of their mother with curly light almost golden brown hair except for her strange somewhat muti-colored hazel eyes to match her prize head of hair. Now fritz was small, full of baby fat, with light brown hair that shine golden brown in the sun and sky blues eyes like their mother.
"Of course you do " Marie smiled as her eyes widen with a smile .
"Mars do you think my hair is alright "Claire asked as she began to brush her hair , placing it into a pony tail , Claire was dress in her uniform a nice light blue blouse and slack that had a faded look to it . Marie grab a hat from her shelf and place it on her brother head "Claire .. come on let go " She grab Fritz and Claire hand pulling them out the door.

Claire rubbed her eyed, opening them, to see two shadow looming over her in strange garments
"Where am I ? Who the hell are you ? " the girl looked at the two men one in a toga and armor with a red cape while the other in similar costume, Claire moved away making a fist in one hand .
