Part 1: Childhood Chapter 1: The Mark

"Elvira! You're awake! And just in time too. Take a look at your beautiful daughter!" Doctor Clestine gently held the dark-haired baby,with bright turquoise eyes and handed Mrs. Panela the baby girl. The bright and blinding light awoke Elvira, fresh and happy.

"Thanks so much again Clestine! My first child...She's so cute!" Elvira patted with the slightest force on the crying girl. "There, there. What do you think Abaddon?" The women looked up at her husband, a hazel haired man with emerald-green eyes.

"She's lovely." Elvira hugged the girl but as she was still cuddling, something on the child's shoulder caught her eye. It looked like a normal birthmark but as she glared closer, it looked more and more like a snake curved around a pointed flower. And there was a tiny mark on the snake that Elvira never noticed. "Is something wrong Elvira?" Clestine asked politely, she clearly noticed the sudden awe of Elvira. She quickly looked away and shook her head. "Oh! I was just, um, dazed for a while. Must be sleep taking over!" Elvira smiled nervously as Clestine grinned. "Well I'm glad everything's fine. I'm sorry but the baby can go back to its hospital carriage until its mother is healed enough to go back home." Elvira handed Clestine the baby girl but right after the doctor left the room, Elvira hushed Abaddon and whispered the shocking news. "When I hugged our baby, I saw something shocking. Her birthmark was the Shadian mark!" Abaddon seemed unshaken. "So? What's the deal with that?" Elvira gasped in shock in the little Abaddon knew about the mark. "It means our girl is the Chosen One!" The man gasped and looked like he was about to faint. "The Chosen One?!" She nodded and quickly hushed the man as Clestine walked into the room. "Say goodbye Abaddon, your lady needs rest to heal." The doctor pushed Abaddon away and she also said goodbye as she walked out the room, closing Elvira's room.

After a while of closing her eyes she opened them as she smiled at her daughter's name."Desdemona. Yes, that's the perfect name for a Chosen One." She drifted off to an uneasy sleep about dark magic and the future of her lucky daughter. Will her life be different?
