CHAPTER 2

Evanna arose a few hours later in the day. She found the two brothers more or less were she had left them. Gannen was laying on one of her soft couches with the boy tucked safe in by his side. He was content with watching his son sleep. Vancha was reluctant to let go of his daughter and was still holding her in his muscular arms. He smiled when he saw Evanna enter.

"How does fatherhood feel?" she queried.

"I've known her only a few hours but yet I'm besotted…"

"Its an amazing sensation", Gannen agreed.

"Have you contemplated any names?"

"…I would like to name him Shiloh, after my old mentor…it seems fitting…. that is if you have no objections". Gannen said.

"A good choice Gannen, he was a remarkable Vampaneze, and you Vancha?"

Vancha hesitated for a moment, "…I don't know Evanna, I …". Then his thoughts returned to the old vampire who had changed his life as much as this little girl

"Paris" he said simply. "I'll call her Paris"

"I always knew you would call her that…he would be very proud".

Evanna gently pried the twins from the arms of their fathers who were more that reluctant to release their grip! She tucked them both into a large wicker crib and kissed them both on the forehead fondly. She then turned to the brothers with a serious expression.

She gestured to them both to follow her. Hesitantly they followed her out of the warm cave and into the dark night. She beckoned them into a small clearing just outside of the cave mouth. There she ordered them to sit.

"I cannot tell you how it pains me to do this to you so soon" Evanna said.

"What is it my Lady?" Gannen asked tentatively.

She reached out and held both of their hands. Vancha seemed to sense what was coming.

"Get on with it Evanna" he growled, "What are you going to tell us? Bad news no doubt."

She averted her gaze and let her eyes fall to the floor. Vancha glared at her with a hardened expression whilst Gannen looked at her questioningly.

"I had many difficult decisions to make in regards to my children…your children, but this one was by far the most painful"

"Just spit it out woman" Vancha hissed.

She sighed "I have decided that it would be in their best interests if they were brought up away from here"

"Well that's no problem," Gannen said optimistically. "We could take them anywhere in the world" he added.

"What I mean is…that I will not be rearing these children…nor will you. I have decided that they will be brought up in the human world. I have foreseen two families who will lose their own children at birth. I will exchange their children for mine. They will be none the wiser and the twins will benefit in the long run. It is the best thing to do."

At that Vancha erupted with rage, "The best thing to do! Take them away from their parents. You won't take her away from me…I am her father " he bellowed.

Even Gannen was enraged "Sending them away is cruel to both us and them Evanna…you have no right"

Evanna gazed sadly back at them. "I have every right…I'm their mother…This is the safest option for them, Tiny knows nothing of them yet and he wont if we conceal them amongst humans. Besides, they will grow to hate us in the future if we deprive them of an ordinary child hood. Trust me they will do enough for both of your people in the future. We must do this for them."

Both brothers were lost for words after that. Evanna had made a fair point.

"An ordinary childhood…but Evanna…they are not ordinary…how will they function normally in the human world with their extra abilities?" Gannen pleaded.

"I have bound their magical powers. They will be no different from any human. They will not inherit their Vampire or Vampaneze traits until you blood them when you see them again"

Vancha snorted ironically "And when will that be…50 or 100 years from now?"

"18" she replied. "I will depart with them tomorrow night and you must not seek them out until they are 18 Years old. You will not know where in the world they are until I inform you so….I know it is difficult to accept but it is how things must be…there is nothing else to discuss" she stated firmly. Vancha stood and spat bitterly into the ground. Gannen was close to tears.

"Come brother", he said "Let us spend as much time with them now as we can".

At that they turned back towards the cave leaving the sorceress alone in the clearing.
