GREAT NEWS NOTICE ON NOVEMBER 17, 2011... Well finally I've gotten myself out of my fog thanks to a fan fict author... But that will be explained later.. My incredible news has to do with my newest picture on Deviant Art... Go to .com/art/Kung-Fu-Panda-and-Woman-The-Wind-Beneath-My-Wings-269537474 I have a picture that goes with htis chapter (Yes I'm finally in Drawing 1, my teacher understood my kind of drawing the first day, I'm still jumping for joy my Memento Mori was one of 5 of a class of 40 I think she liked... Anyways my Memento Mori doesn't have to do with this story, but thanks to me getting bac in the swing of things for this story I'm bursting out my art stuff and drawing all these scenes for this story of chapters long since written or newly written. I also wanted to let everyone know, eventually I have planes on making a few YouTube videos with my Kung Fu Panda drawings related to this story... SO be ready for that I have song selections all ready thats why I say be ready for several... Funny I can't tell you anything without spoiling what's coming poo :(... Oh well you'll love it, don't worry I'm posting soon. I just had trouble going back to the story cause I wrote all these medical things and I knew I had to research to make sure I said them correctly, though some text in chapter 3 will also be more, um... Well scientific sounding in a perspective I give, (I'm great with writing stuff scientificly and ironicly we recently went through stuff in classes that delt with what I was needing to look up or type in the correct medical or scientific wording sorry I'm not saying it as well right now had a late night am tired and am busy that's one reason I wasn't able to return and change things or even update I appologive for thos of you waitng I'll have it up soon)... Back to the pictre, It's done in Charcoal and all surface Graphite, though it's not entirly complete I will be copying it on art paper and using my watercolor pensils I always like giving my black and whites out as I've always been good with those and had trouble coloring cause I like the way the black and whites look to much... ;)... Anyways sorry this is so long... Just saying check it out sometime... I was goign to do a side view but changed my mind, hope you don't mind. Also note I have decided recently to do what I was wanting to do even when I posted this, I changed the bag she had slightly its a duffle more mimicking a sports duffle, but still Ed Hardy bag style so it's mimicking to bags I own that I complined and thought looked good together... Also note some characters looked better when I used my extra soft woodless graphite though like charcoal vines it easily earased and faded so I had to redue everyhting in charcoal (I used soft its easier to erase and correct mistakes. Also sorry Mantis is a bit off I never could get him to look right even with the picture infront of me... I'll work at it.. Maybe color will help...
Note this chapter has harsh swearing, and graphic details of injury and close to death experiences. Young readers or people affected by such things need to be cautious, aware, and know they were warned
Thanks to reviewers I'm attempting to quickly change the often used fraze 'beautiful'... the only time that beautiful is in here is discribing a flower (Which is somewhat reffering to her, but mostly the beautiful fraze is meant for the flower or tree the flower may represent her but its how the characters describe the flower that should be dead...) besides that the fraze isn't used. I'll try to see where I said it alot... I'll get a betta for this story so I can try to avoid that in the future things like that tend ot slip my mind on occassions
Also note I have a scene in here that was sort of revised from a sertian conversation in a favorit movie of mine and I want to see if anyone could guess which phrases they are (Hint its a disney film) I will reviel what phrase this was in the next chapter or two, a certian scene in this chapter was added because of how it would fit and rewatching the film gave me the idea, although the scene I have is not at all like the way the phrases are used or played out in the scene in the film their from, its more to just cause I needed a certian flow in the story and watching this other film and seeing a certian phrase got me to relize that it was the flow I needed and helped me add a better end to the split chapter... Thanks and please guess I want to see if anyone can get it correct before I tell you... ;)
Review Review Review please…
Have fun reading and thanks you for being such awesome Readers….I hope you enjoy… ;)
She knew if she tried to call the police it would not work at this pond, as this park was known to everyone as the only park that never had service. Even if the pond had service it would not matter if she called the police, the park was outside town but up a large hill, they would never be able to get there on time , for once in her life she was on her own and alone, trying to survive.
Annalice ran deep through the forest not knowing where to go but hearing one of the guys cry forty five seconds after she filed and tricked them. "Fucking cunt shit slut bitch I'm going to kill you for that, better yet I'm going to make sure you wished you were never born or I killed you already. You get your fucking ass over here."
Only a few seconds later a cry of angry pain was heard. "When I get my hands on you I'm going to fucking fuck you, you're not going to see a shiting light of day…I'll teach you where your fucking place is… I'm going to fucking hunt you down. Your dead to me…you hear me slute?…I'm going to break you hard without remorse, I'll enjoy fucking you…you hear me?"
Tears silently flooded Anna's face the worst thing for her would be rape, that and her friends dying when she could take their place, but it seemed that horrendous fear came true and now she had one thing to protect herself from, if not death. She would make sure they killed her if they captured her she would never be rapped.
Suddenly long shots from someone who was definitely well trained like the military, shot through the treed area.
One suddenly made contact with her arm but she bit her lip to not make a single sound to give away her location and distance. As she knew he was shooting out of anger and not of site or sound of her because she had such small feat that barley made sounds as she walked, the size of her foot being a three in children's was quiet surprising for her age but it could also be a gift especially when it came to sneaking around. She was able to keep quiet as she taught herself as a child to suppress pain if she hurt, tell people but to not show it, and this helped her keep quiet.
"You know what I'll do to you when I get my hands on you…I'll make you my fucking bitch and will fuck you every night hard that you bleed, you hear me? I'm going make you bleed every shitting night and will not allow you death, you're going to be my bitch till the day I die. You will be no better than a prostitute and I'll make sure the other men fuck you harder than me so you'll be no more than a whore. You hear me bitch? You're going to suffer for what you did you'll have no prayers left and will be broken...you'll learn your ass place."
She started panting as gun shots kept randomly being shot and she knew she could not dodge them all.
"Please Lord help me!" she cried in a whimper under her breath "Oh Lord, please."
Tears welded her face "Dear lord Jesus, help me please now, don't let him get me I don't want to be abused….I don't want to be raped please don't let them get me. Please Lord help me escape them I need help I won't die not like this….not become someone's sex slave I'd rather die than that…Help me Please dear Lord Jesus Please."
Anna felt like tears but at the moment she knew she had to run like she never ran before like she actually liked to run a lot. She was trying her best to push herself and felt the tears of crying, she did not want to believe her friends were gone, she did not want to believe that Steven was gone, she could not help but pray to the Lord that they were alive and them being dead was not at all true. "Please don't let them be dead save their lives Lord save my friends."
As she kept running she thought that it would not be as bad if she was captured and tortured into a sex slave as long as she had death near and could find meanings to end her life that would be better then living knowing she alone survived.
However, she shook herself out of these thoughts, as she could never think that it was crazy she was better she would fight all the way and not give up. She continued to run as the angered bastard still shot anywhere he could threatening her more and more about what he would do with her being ever so descriptive in his rage, with how he would do it and even as far as when he got a hold of her taking her their while his friend watched and giving his friend a turn or having them both rape and weaken her together on either side.
She was more angered to what he said but she could not ignore what he said and had to run like she could get away, run to never let them have the chance to hurt her like he described, she only let it be what gave her strength to run harder and farther. She started to focus on the rounds or the gun this man had or both men had and she figured that they had machine guns with the never ending amount of bullets they used.
Suddenly as she felt like crying she felt it, a shot went right near her chest and abdomen, she knew she should be dying or that she soon would be dead. As Annalice felt the hit she let out a "Eh" sound from the impact as her body had rocked forward but she did nothing to indicate that she was in pain. Instead, to keep herself going she rushed through her bag tossing the pepper spray back in and found her extra shirt.
In her daze and in her pain, she ripped this plain hot pink shirt in half trying to have this be what could help delay her bleeding in her abdomen. A smaller section she twisted and placed in her mouth so she would not give away her position in the case that she cried or began to scream in pain. As she ran the hardest she could, Anna applied pressure on her wounds she knew enough from her grandparents who fought in the second world war and her grandma who was a nurse in the war that in such cases it was best to apply pressure till you could care or examine your wounds.
Anna jumped behind a large tree, and let tears roll down her face making her check completely wet. "Oh Please let me be anywhere else but here….I don't want to be here not here…."
She looked to the trees in front of her "I won't let them get me." Then Anna as if in a trance looked in front of her, her green eyes for a moment turned the crystal diamond blue she was born with "Let me escape" she whispered before she shook herself out of some daze. What she did not notice was her voice echoed through the forest quiet creepily, and the wind picked up, when she had said the words her clothes and hair had blown around her and her eyes bold dark rims, let out a bright shiny white ringed light that was invisible to all except to her, and traveled forward to stretch wider in dimension, and stayed in front of her.
This light from her eyes formed a large glowing ring that only she could see.
Annalice was surprised in wonder of how the large ring came in front of her having no memory of such a thing arriving in front of her, and she reached out with her hand, only to have it feel warm and soft, and as her fingertip touched this glowing rim, the light became bright and sent a small beacon somewhere unknown.
Annalice suddenly saw a bright light floating to her, it was round and white all around, she did not know if she was dying or seeing thing but she knew she was about ready to collapse her body felt dizzy and she was seeing spots. Her breathing was heavy and she could barely keep herself standing, the one reason she rested against this tree.
As she mysteriously saw the light, it seemed to grow and split to several other light balls all the way around her, she had to put one arm over her eyes to be able to see. However, as she watched these figures they each seemed to grow into life-sized beings. A few had amazingly white flowing princess like dresses, she could not make the figures all out entirely, but she knew what she saw beyond the bodies attached to their backs were heavenly white glistening gleaming wings "Angels" she whispered, while she could tell several of the angels smile and nod, some women gave slight laughs.
Annalice recognized a few faces but was unsure, while two unparticular looked very similar to her but she could not figure out this reason, it was a blond handsome man and a gorgeous angel with amazing long soft blonde hair.
The women approached Anna without speaking to her. The other figures all walked to the glowing ring and put their hands on it, the object began to glow inside the rings and Anna could not help but watch stunned by the actions being done in front of her, she could not understand any of it.
However, as Annalice almost had to completely cover her eyes from how blinding the now completely glowing circle became, the women smiled and kissed the young adults forehead, this in turn allowed Anna to see without covering her eyes.
"You have to go through there my Annalice." It was when the women said her name in the way she did, a memory she did not know she owned or ever could have flooded her mind, it was minutes after she was born this golden blonde angelic women was smiling at her and telling her the same thing.
"Mom!" Annalice replied shocked while the women smiled and brushed back the young girls brown hair behind her ears. This women was indeed Anna's mother, however not the women she counted as her true mom, but this was the women whose blood flowed within her, this was the women who had once cheated with her best friend who also cheated on his spouse and this was the result of a sinful night. An angelic girl was created from sin yet full of life and strength.
The women gave a slight chuckle. "You must go through the circle you see in front of you, they won't give you mercy if you stay here." She chuckled and Eskimo kissed her daughters forehead "And I very much can't see my second child raped by some sick perverts, your too sweet for that and no daughter of mine is wrongfully treated, abused or raped I've made sure of that."
"Why?"
"It's your doing…You can't stay here…you're in a way part of two worlds…you've held the bond a long forgotten treaty and long forgotten wisdom all these years inside you."
"What…what do you mean?" the starry eyed girl asked as the handsome blond man that she occasionally had dreams about since her childhood, came along side the women and held her. "I'd say this is the first time you've been able to see me."
"Wait Dad?….are you…you are both dead, I thought you both were alive?"
"Hu…we would be if the same men who are after you didn't come after those who were protectors of a secret that binds both these worlds, an alliance and ruling long forgotten."
The girl looked confused and looked up at the amazing angels, it was no wonder as a human she could have such a demure.
"You have something we need to tell you." The women began.
"You see my sweet daughter…You have a lot more to you than meets the eye and I'm afraid it's because of what I was, just like my mother , her father was and so on….I'm not allowed to tell you as you are not yet ready, you have to discover a lot of who you truly are on your own. Nevertheless, I will be besides you each time a new thing you will be confused and shocked about occurs, this shall not be the last time we meet while you are still living and when you are healthy."
The man puts his hand on her shoulder looking at his daughter who has his strength and courage yet her mother's fighting spirit and perfectionist nature. "All I can tell you is the rings you see before you were done by you, but I cannot tell you why that is or how you did, as I'm afraid you're not ready to know."
"What? No way that's'" suddenly the father places a finger on his daughters forehead and holds her hand.
'You shall remember more than this in time….But you are not just any human, not like you or anyone else thinks you are, your more incredible then you know or give yourself credit for. I cannot tell you mentally you are not ready for any of this, you will learn soon very soon, and when you do, you must know that you must prepare for an incredible journey, when your time comes to completely know everything you are.'
'Does anyone else know what I may be then or what this is that I may be that you are going to tell me about someday or shall know, is there anyone else who knows? Annalice looked to the strong handsome man in hope she was not thinking much on what he told her to hints of what she may be. No she was more amazed at watching the heavenly creatures she once knew when they were living humans moving around, the halos on their heads glowed and looked like the rings she saw seconds before. The heavenly look was what she always wanted to see while she was still living to know it was all true and there were real angels, to know what they truly looked like with her own eyes was a dream come true.
"I'm afraid my darling daughter few do, those who know will not ever tell you, till you know yourself, the others are in hiding. Those in hiding stay hidden for the reasons so many people with the burden of their family ancestors were killed, by similar men before you. If these ones that survived the hunts came out of the closet and found you, they'd be re-hunted and most likely killed. To answer the true intent of your questions, I will answer no your parents, families and close friends never knew, if they had well."
The model like angel smiled and looked up with a perky smirk while she telepathically spoke to her daughter. 'Well I'm sure none of them would have allowed you to come near here, nor would they have let you go off to college, you may never have been left alone your parents would have been more overly protective then they currently are for their only child.'
'Wait you speak of these men that killed you hunted you or similar ones. Does that mean I'm the reason my friends and even I am dying or dead?'
Her parents looked grimaced by their child's words, both held each other and looked to the other angels. Her grandpa with white hair and tall height of 6'2" still over towering her like he did when the girl was a child approached his granddaughter, he still looked like a mix of Clint Eastwood with white hair and Mr. Rogers. "Bapi" she cried quiet happy over the person she saw die, was the same man that her childhood was changed to living more mature due to his death, she didn't care that he was still dead, it only mattered that she got to see him again though she felt her dad would need to see Bapi to believing it was not fare she saw him and his own son did not get to.
He smiled and opened his arms as the young women he lasted had touched when she was only eight, jumped into his arms and he laughed and spun her around without a problem, he still saw his little actress granddaughter asking him to swing her higher on the wood swing set during her childhood.
He set his grandchild back to the spot she had leaned against the tree and looked just as grievant as her real parents looked.
'My dancing princess, they don't know now but it doesn't mean they will not know in the distant future, never let them see your birth mark it will lead them to the answer they seek and your life will easily be taken, hide your mark from site not until you can defend yourself better than this." He smirked recalling how she had thrown the rock; he had been a military sergeant in world war two and aviation instructor to the pilots going to war. He smiled as his grandbaby that moment had thought of the training he gave her, and she remembered every inch of the training he gave. If he lived longer, she could have taken the monsters down with her bare hands.
'They won't know but your mark will give it away, your friends all have marks that will give away the secret that connects them to this as well. As for you seven coming here, that was a simple mishap and coincidence, the matter that you were attacked was just for being seen while they were around, they take the usual lives or enslave the average human they come around in the several places they travel.
Her father looked at her with a strong strict expression in his muscular face. "However, my sweet daughter, where you are going one will know….you see he may not know about it now but he will know soon. To tell you the truth he will know many months from now, knowing you, you'll try to hunt him down for the answers you seek, but you can't for he will be forced not to tell you, bound even these are things you have to learn on your own no matter who may know around you.'
"How is that?" she asked giving a slight look of confusion and curiosity to the father she had hated and still did not completely care for, due to the creation of her own self being a horrendous sin against his wife and her mother's husband. This was a past before her time, that Anna had utter distaste for.
"Because, I will tell him for one reason that is part of my blessing upon him."
"Wait what are you talking about why would you bestow some stupid blessing upon any man in my life when you deserted my bio mom for your wife, did you even tell her about me you jerk." She looked angry finally releasing all the anger she had for her father that was a dush in her opinion and only thing she got from his decision was parents she wished to be her genetic parents.
"No I'm afraid and utterly hate the fact that I did no. However, while I was still alive I told my sons about you and they've watched you closely along with your sister from time to time, but I can't say more then that on what they know about you."
"Why in shit hole would you give a man a blessing when you never cared to see me born?"
"Being an angel I can't get mad at what you said nor deny that I wanted nothing more than to not have had that night and be torn by guilt for the years I lived after that. However, nothing hurt me more then not seeing you born, not seeing Alley give birth to you, it hurt me not meeting your parents not being there for your growth, your laugh, your first word. And I regret I never realized what I longed to see till after I was killed. You were a blessing and my angel I never could see, every night I prayed for you and wished to go back to that night to see you. You are my blood and my gift that I should have agreed to see. I hate myself even in heaven for not telling my wife one time about you. I would give any man a blessing for the daughter I wished to have been there for, my child who never loved me and I know hates me for my sins and mistakes, I still pay the price by feeling that hatred every day, I would feel the same hatred if I knew my father did such a thing. But any man disserves to receive the proper blessings from the father who loves their daughter more than the heavens."
"I don't get why any man I affiliate myself with needs a blessing." Anna crossed her arms and huffed looking away from her father she would have a hard time forgiving if she ever accepted an apology and forgave him. She was not the type for grudges of any kind, however the only person she ever held grudges for were the two in front of her, most of all the one she never forgave completely to this day in her heart, the man before her that made so many mistakes she had no clue if she ever would forgive him completely.
The man laughed at his innocent child, she was a child on the inside he knew it, but it was her clueless moments that gave him the memory of what he was like when he was alive, for she was more like him then she could know. "This should be quiet obvious to you my sweet dove, you truly are such an innocent child if you can't figure it out, hu, it will come to you in time… I just can't tell you more than a hint of such…And to tell you he will be a great man for you in your life and I'm proud of what this will be. Your not to know of who this guy is till just nights before I come to bless him, as the Lord has asked me to do and I excepted knowing what he is and will be in your life." Water formed in the man's eyes as he knew everything that would come between him and how much his little girl had grown, not to long from now she would be twenty two years away from the age her mother and him were when they had that one night.
Tears formed ,as he saw the body of his beautiful Cinderella dying in front of him, the act that the angels she once knew was to save her life. However, seeing her as crippled from the shots and still a child killed the handsome angel's heart for he still was her father and seeing his child hurt young or not would hurt him no matter where his relationship was with her. Fear of his human self-still lay inside as he feared for the life of his girl, this moment and for the future. She truly had no clue what she was to face, none of his children did, but this girl would face more than any of his children, the reason she was chosen for such a fate and carry such a heaven burden was for what she could take, she was impossible to break, stress barley could affect her, for this she was chosen.
He just hated to think what came upon her and was to come upon her, could very much be the end of her, he wished to save her from her fate but it was her path she was to take and not his to decide and save her from because she was destined to save people and she needed to save help protect good.
The man's voice echoed in her mind as he was telepathically speaking to her. "Your siblings and you are the last of a generation of humans I can't tell you about but in time I will come to you and we will discuss this. Hu, I can't let my first daughter die especially to men who wish to harm her virginity I've helped keep those kind from you and I won't stop now." He smiled, as the girl in his view was always a little angel of the stars and heavens she was created from their sin but she was so precious and sweet. Their daughter was the one chosen to carry an old destiny of his family. She would have a heavy burden to bear he only hoped and prayed that death would not befall her at such a young age and she would come out to live.
Annalice realized that she was not feeling her wounds through this whole event and wondered what could have happened. She looked down and saw her body fallen "What? What hap…happened did I die?" She asked her blood parents shocked at what she was seeing before her, she truly thought she was conscious.
The couple laughed and looked at their own little angel. "Sweetheart, you only fell unconscious you're not dead, we put you to sleep so you could see us, however you must get to safety soon we were only allowed this moment with you. However both of us are glad we had the time we did. What I must tell you is you have a destiny none but you can control, one that goes on another planet that's not earth that you must live on another planet."
"I can't go…not with everyone here what about all I care for…My life."
"You'll see them again I promise." Her father laughed with his best friend at their sweet little girl "But if you don't go I'm afraid you're worst nightmares will come true all I want is my children to be safe now, please go!" He kissed his daughters forehead and wiped a tear from her eye. "I love you, and will arrive to help you through the occasional powers."
"Powers?" she asked confused she thought she was human, but as she asked that question, the figures became blurry, and she shook her head. Suddenly she was shaking her head as she was still standing against the tree but coming too from almost a strange dream or reality. Just as she thought that what she dreamt moments before was only from her imagination. That is until her eyes came out of the blurry haze and she looked to see the glowing circle before her that seemed heaven sent. Anna double-checked the reality of what she was seeing by rubbing her eyes and pinching herself, yet sure enough this was real and she was seeing the orb that appeared before the angels out of nowhere. However, a sudden pain was brought to her attention and she saw her chest bleeding and the side of her waist, she could not help but hiss in pain from what she was feeling, quickly replacing her hands on her waist and wounds to lessen the bleeding for a few moments.
Anna fell against the roots of the tree, at first not being able to move forward or up, only finding herself sliding down further whining and gulping. Annalice could not help but cry to the sky's, she cried for her friends, as she cried in pain making several sounds of total agony. Nevertheless, as she heard the killers approach she gulped the words "Dear Lord please save me now." Calming her breaths and ending her tears with one last sniff before they were in earshot of her.
As she heard them get nearer she found all the strength of a thousand men consume her and she slowly glided herself up against the back end of this thick tree. The wind slightly blew her loose long bangs in her face, as she slowly breathed in and out listening to the sounds around her. Annalice closed her eyes and listened to stillness.
The strength that Anna had to get herself up was beginning to dwindle as her legs felt like collapsing. She let some breaths out of her mouth, but stopped all sounds as she heard a twig nearby only twenty yards behind her snap.
At this sound her eyes flew open as she looked out to the light in a stair down like manor, she breathed once more in the quiet air, began to let go of her weight on the tree. As the branch snapped her body found the strength of ten brave soldiers fighting a battle she was finding every inch of bravery one being could have and wielding it in what could very well be her last moments. Finding some strength to keep her panting, sweating and dying body up away from the tree with her consuming bravery, she gulped and panted still in pain, while she stated quietly almost as if expecting an answer from someone alongside her, "Please help me."
As she stays still like a Greek statue, a small bead of sweat trickled from her forehead down her cheek and to the tip of her lip to which it dropped, and splashed on the ground, not comparing to the constant beads of sweat overtaking her back as this one was so elegant almost like a signal for her to make her move. As she listened to what she believed was the bead of salty sweet hitting a leaf near her foot, she pushed her weight forward propelling from her back leg, and she lunged herself in the last strength she had forward towards the bright circular light in a hast for her life.
However, she was filled with absolute dread, when her ears heard her attempted killers or raper's behind her click the readied guns and all of a sudden the big booming noise that would hurt anyone and strike fear in anyone even those as young as children, for both men had shot at her.
This time neither missed, as one shot scraped against the side of her abdomen and the other went into her other leg.
As theses metal objects made contact with her body she greatly winced, before seconds later letting go of what was keeping her from screaming and letting her scream be heard. Annalice's scream was so high pitched and filled with deathly cries of fear and agony that anyone for miles would hear it and those for more than fifty yards away would have to cover their ears in pain.
By now, it was too late for her shooters to even capture her or harm her anymore as her hands now reached the light and felt the warm heavenly feeling of the light against her so comforting and homely, it could put a baby to sleep. Her whole body began to dive into the strange light, Anna knew wherever she was going she would die or was going to die for she was shot too badly for even the best doctors of her world to save her, all she could do was mentally pray for the Lord to perform another miracle on her and allow her to survive.
As the light encircled her like a womb holds a baby she was shot at fast speeds out and without knowledge of where she was headed. Anna only knew the moment she stopped she felt a hard gowned below her laying down body
Suddenly, she felt wet concrete and rain coming upon her body as the she landed was currently facing nightfall and harsh thick rain. Anna's good arm she brought forward right in front of herself, and began using it to drag herself forward slightly, to where she saw small streams of light in a very fancily decorated building window behind the shade curtains.
Little could she tell or pay attention to the detail of the building and see that it was a palace, to be specific it was an Asian styled building design and most likely some Chinese palace.
"Ah" she cried and made a hissing whining sound while her body would not let her journey any further along the concrete, she felt as if she was dying. Annalice swallowed out of her pain "Ung." She sounded as she tried to swallow the pain but could not it was to agonizing to think, she withered and held her stomach trying not to think at all about it.
Anna slowly turned her body over to its back she knew she was losing blood and lots of it, she felt it under her body and crawling warmly slowly down her skin from the gunshot wounds.
"Help me…Please!" Annalice managed cry out although anyone who heard it would have to be a fool not to hear the agony and pain inside her voice. As she was clenching her abdomen in pain and crying, finally aloud in hard sobs from all the anguish and stress these wounds were causing her body. Although, she attempted to pull herself forward more, she could not move any farther, she hurt everywhere and would get nowhere in the constant feeble attempts they were hopeless attempts of life.
She was still panting and even thought it was raining, she could not feel less dizzy then the strength her dizziness had over her this dark night, the world was becoming a hazy cloud while her senses of feeling dwindled every second to nothingness. She had to admit to herself this was the end and she would die in the welcoming rain that Eponine from Les Miserables sang, Annalice sang lightly and in pain to the night "Don't you fret my loved ones, I don't feel any pain a little fall of rain can….can hardly hurt me now. You will keep me safe and you will keep me close and rain will ma…make the flowers grow" She couldn't help but wince in pain as she sang and her chest burned like hell.
Annalice rolled over and tried to push forward a little more, finding this still as unsuccessful as before, she finally went back to laying on back and cried to the pitch black sky that filled her face with nice cool rain balancing out her hot sweaty body drenched in sticky sweat and sweating from her accomplishments of running and pain to which she suffered. "Help me…please!" she cried softer to the night, knowing no one could be around to hear her that this was the end of her life and she had to face it.
Her body became so weak that her voice started cracking and sounded as frail as a pregnant women after birth, or a boy kicked in his private section. As she was taking in the pain knowing it be her last feeling she knew, she let a last plea escape her lips soft and dwindling in sound, it was strong enough to carry through. "Please someone anyone help me please."
Annalice cried before finally allowing tears to flow with the rain from her face soaking into the concrete grown below drowning in the unsalted rainwater. She had to face it her short nineteen years was what her life was made of, she would not be a college sophomore nor a detective she would die young and in her teen years she would die a virgin without a boyfriend ever being in her life.
As she rolled on her back, one last time breathing became harder and she started wheezing her breath as the world and rain around her swirled she turned her dwindling gaze to what seemed to be stares leading down to the ground bellow; however, she still had no clue how she came here through the light.
Suddenly Annalice saw lights, reflecting off the large puddles near her, the windows behind her had light in them, figures had moved as their shadows were caught in past their blinds, and a large booming creak was heard. Nevertheless, she was to injured and week to turn and see what it was she just knew as she saw a shadow long, followed by several others long shadows join the shadow that obtruded this light that stretched in front of her and past her body, she knew someone was coming, not knowing this someone was also what she could think as a something.
She heard some feet walking along the wet concrete, splashing through the water, as someone a woman voice gasped. "Hu, Shifu theirs blood and lots of it…the creatures dying."
"Oh my gosh, it's a girl and she's injured, she looks to be…well barely alive…Will she even make it?" Sounded a very concerned female from nearby.
An older wise voice sounded "But how did she get here with such injuries?"
"I've not seen injuries like that before." Another voice that was deep sounded he sounded professional like a doctor.
Someone's hands, or what felt like hands for what she also felt was feathery strong fingers and arms that were so strong and smooth, she felt simple kindness in their hold. This strange figure grabbed Annalice while she was lying on the side and rolled her into his arms.
Anna's eyes were not working and everything was completely blurry, all she could make out was that his arms were nice and warm a soft as feathers like his hands were actual feathers. Whatever he wore was fury in a way, and he was tender while something like a human hand with fur touched her legs as if he was getting ready to carefully hold carry her with the other man who was slightly holding her in his arms, refusing to let her go. "She looks to be dying." A voice from the man she thought was getting ready to help carry her and be the person who would help carry her lets as to not injure her injuries on their further.
As she looked up at the strange blurry figures she could have sworn there was human character and animal characteristics to their looks, she slightly looks to the man holding her and though she can't make much out she see's a hat and yellow, black and white, his eyes however are what she finds kindness and can't help staring at. She softly and almost without any sound obtruding her, said the exact same words she pleaded alone moments before any one rushed to save her. Yet, in this moment where death was more then at her door but breathing down her neck and the pain was swelling like never before; her voice though soft, was as week as the highest key upon a grand piano. "Help me…please." It weekly spoke as the ability to do anything was lacking and falling into the abyss of her fogged mind, where she knew she soon was to go.
The man holding her looked stunned, but as his eyes were full of sadness for the stranger sliping away. With incredible pity for the being he was holding, he was shocked as she moved her arm from his shoulder, moved down to his chest around where his heart lay. This almost forced the figure to do something he never did in public, it almost forced him to cry, it was a simple move, yet delecate and heart breaking. As she softly held her hand their, not aware of the texture she was feeling along his chest and body. As she slowly slipped away from life, her soul in his views seemed to be stretching out to the man holding her like an old friend he had done everything to rescue.
As the man knew his friends were trying to figure out what happened to the girl before them, his loose hand reached for this week hand to which she closed her grip upon. His eyes seemed to be promising the moon by the gleam she saw in the lovely sparkling amber eyes of crisp Autumn leaves. "I promise we will…I promise I will...whatever it takes... I promise." He whispered to the dizzy figure, while she tightened her hold kindly out of thanks for the words, not really noticing to whom she was thanking.
Annalice felt a strange contentment, that filled her heart with unknown comfort completly leaving her soul overflowing with a certian uncompleted fulfilment. This little string of uncompleted fulfilment, magically began holding her fading soul in its place, as if to make sure she lasted on earth and did not give up.
Annalice felt her world suddenly grow completly dark. She heard some talking from somewhere near her leg wound, they were gentle echoing whispers, that seemed troubled and disturbed by there fearful disagreement.
Some strange obeject quite like a hose with a large flower on top made its way over her, peering closer into her face. Though, this figure in meer seconds became blurry and vanished from her sights as the only thing she could make out, the last thing she knew, was the gentle promising glowing eyes that stared scared but caring into hers glistening emerald evergreen eyes. These tender eyes relaxed her, made her not fear the uncertian road ahead, with him, more then anyone before, she felt truly safe.
Her world finally finished its journey into the bleak pitch black of the darkness.
She fell into the darkness and sudden dreams, while pain filled her last thoughts slowly faded in the distance of time soon after.
Now she was alone in the darness, waiting for something to come her way, something to take her where the angles would call her up to the open sparkling gold gates. The place where missed family and friends would all welcome her forevermore. Anna knew soon she would be safe,watching over those she cared for, like she knew those friends she was with only hours ago had so recently done.
She was ready for the angel of death to take her home where she'd be welcomed with open arms. "Goodbye to the world I love." Her mind echoed, waiting for a sign of the end of her short life to be complete. Little did she know how true that statment already was, though it was not true int he bleak way she intended it to be.
As the Furious six and Master Shifu looked down at the small young body of a strange girl, Crane felt dread at what he promised her and suddenly seeing her watch his eyes as If she understood what lay beyond his and he knew what lay beyond hers. It was strange for him to hold this girl and see her painful expression dwindle as her eyes unwillingly began to droop shut and her head fell turned from his body.
"Sensei what should we do?" a taller strong figured women asked obviously sounding worried.
The short tall eared dark figure looked with his big panda eyes at the strange girl with long legs and plain waist mysteriously before knocking himself out of his strange dream and coughing "K..kckc. Yes…Yes take her into the Palace, see if there is anything you can do for her Mantis. Crane, can you take the strange girl in?"
"Yes sensei I can but I need Monkeys help at carrying her bleeding legs I don't want her legs hurt."
He coughs again "Very well…Good good… Po take her bag inside. Let's pray that fate brought her here to be saved and not die."
"Yes master." Everyone bows to go do as they were instructed.
"Mantis do you think she'll survive she's bleeding very badly?" Viper asked her little friend fearing the death of someone that looked young and someone who had been viciously injured.
"For once Viper I do not know let's hope, but like I said I've never seen anything like those wounds in my life."
"What do you suppose they are from?" Po asks as he trots along with his green friend.
Suddenly Master Shifu catches something dark and gray on the ground and lifts it up so he can see it in the light, he sees some blood on it and analyzes it the strangely shaped item.
"Perhaps from this?" he hands Mantis what would be a large object for him as he examines it.
"What is it?"
"I don't know but maybe ask her if your able to save her." Mantis bows and rushes into the large Chinese complex as Master Shifu sighs "Oogway what have you brought us this time? What have you got us into?" But as the small white and red Panda turns to head in, the wind suddenly blows and rushes up the back of his neck, as it follows out around the red panda, he can distinctly hear and make out the words "Nothing that she doesn't need help with…Protect her..She's a destined forgotten child to these lands, teach her like you came to teach Po."
As another one passes "Nothing her kind doesn't need help on if not to end some disappearances. Teach her and train her, she is as willing as anyone she has lost a lot she will happily learn if you gently teach her. She is a flower that needs to learn to bloom and be beautiful and strong against all. Old friend she's so strong but she needs to learn so she can go home, so she can become the giant Blossuming tree before you, she shall find teh flowers she lost, and will find home again. My friend you need to show her that she can find home here, she has endured many hardiships in life and is as qualified as the strongest warriors make her one of the six, and turn the furious warriors to a group of seven."
The short panda greatly sighed "Hu, It's not that I don't believe you old friend if that is you and not my mind speaking to me, but she needs to survive, if she has such a destiny I will train her for the life she is to lead. However, I've never known her kind, what will happen in years to come?
Laughing is heard from the old chuckle he dearly missed. "Just look to time, it changes the seasons and changes the years, brings new out comes and creats miricles. We do not know what is to happen in years to come, no living being can say what will, what you can say is what will fate bring? For fates destiny is the question you should ask? What is fate when it brings new things, a new creature, a young girl, a whole different world into our minst? It is not why or how? No it is what will, is up to destiny and time, and all depends if one can learn to be strong, learn to defend, and learn to love in a whole different world. What indeed? Do ask your question in time, it may be asked, for maybe the years and destiny will speak itself to you if you ask kindly, you never know how they may answer. You could not say how the Dragon Warrior came to be, when you didn't trust who he was, nor could you make the black and white warrior whom was also the dragon warrior come to be known as China's hero, for you could not rule fate, it just happened. No one could say what truly would happen, fate of who he was made it happen, it was his choice to win and use what he knew. You may ask time every question, but it won't answer till its ready and allowing the events to unfold infront of you."
"Can you stop with the blasted riddles?" The angry panda spoke to the gentle blowing leaves around him.
"I cannot for you always find meaning to what I say, you just have to listen to your heart and in time the answers will come. Like the seasons this girl will experience new things upon this Earth, she's young and able to learn, like the changing years you'll know what's right to ask her or tell her when the timing is right." The old voice said happily in the wind."
"Hu I always knew you would say such things, you are never straight forward." He felt the feeling of his old Master's smile be kept in his direction.
"Oh and do remember one thing…Look to the blossoms on the Cherry tree's this year…They are beautiful at this time of year…"
Indeed Shifu looked to the old Cherry Blossom tree at the entrance of the gates to the palace once more and his eyes caught the delightful glow of the tree he never thought could be more then a tree and contain such beauty. Suddenly as the wind blew the leaves, two small blossoms are reviled to barley be holding onto the trees branch, they seemed to have barley any energy or hope to blossom and yet they clung ong. The flower buds are the most colorful and lushes of all the flowers, however, one of these buds gently falls off the tree and floats to the pool of blood that belonged to the young girl.
"How sad it is this girl's fate, what has happened and shall be her life she had much to accomplish and learn much to take on but she will never fall or darken her petals, for you see she will always flow like this small flower flowed with the wind riding its current and floating on the life essense of the girl that was sent, and came to you. Although the tree seems to now be empty without this beautiful blossom upon it leaving the still fighting blossom alone and on its own with little chance of surviving without its friend, this flower will never be alone and can handle all weather, for it shall grow. And grow like nothing you have seen, its beauty and strength shall not compare to one around, this bud will last the longest and will fight to stay the flower it already is."
"I can't understand what you mean my old friend?"
The laughing is in the wind as the wind blows the flowers on the tree then signals for the panda to turn to the fallen blossom. "My... Shifu you have to admit what wonderful blossoms we have this year on the Cherry Blossom trees for this is the point and answer to your question, you'll find the answers in here."
"Yes they are amazing as every year and I now see the beauty I never for beheld or saw with my very eyes, I still cannot see what you are asking or telling me about her."
"Oh no you do you'll find what I said the answers that you seek inside you, you'll find them soon on your own... They have changed and grown, there no longer alone and have roughed the worst weather and yet they still survive. Look the strong blossoms pull on they've seen war and yet survive these trees are the war felid occupants and still they grow and learn to survive they can live and they are saved by those around them who care and take care of them, the ones around them make sure nothing will ever happen to the trees blossums they are its protectors and family. Blossoms fall but new glorious ones grow back children to the fallen flowers. In the fall the tree has just leaves and some last flowers it seems so plain but look closely and if you find one small bud there is always the one that makes the difference. The special one that has the strength to be chosen for unbelievable power to survive and help the tree live on, without the last blossom for a bee to fertilize and spread how else can they get the tree to survive and live again?"
"I don't get what you mean."
The voice of the turtle in the wind laughed "Neither would she, she's a special one for that, its no coincidence she's here there is ancestry for her in this land. A legend that belongs to her family, powers she owns that you must help her through, you're not supposed to know of the powers she owns, but she's not like her kind and is different, she thinks herself as only what she is as she's raised where powers are believed to be fake she does possess them, only to help the world become stronger she was sent here to help a journey both her own and meant for the six, and she was sent for a war that incircles her life and being, her family has beent the center of this war for generations, it was time someone was sent back to fight what was needed to be faught years ago, war that will be years to come but the blossom is to bring the beauty to this and life for years and years to come"
The wind got him to look closer at the blossom in the blood puddle "You know this one is late, just as the girl, her blossoming is late and yet she is blossumed on the inside and is stronger then she should be and looks she's holding onto her branch, someone needs to show her how to pop this beauty of heaven and turn her blossom into the flower of strength it should be. However, she shall bloom just like this bud has." The wind blows around the flower that fell off the tree and was floating the puddle of blood, Shifu looked as confused as ever unsure why his old master kept switching fromt the tree to the now dead flower.
"Master its dead now, and no longer attached to the tree. Its dead, and not alive, its gone from its nutrients and can't grow... I take a flower from teh tree, it will wilt and die, may make a room filled witha fragrence but its the ensense of its death. I take a grass blade from the ground, it does nothing but browns over crumbles and dies, the leaves on the trees crunch and wilt to nothingness if you take it from its nutrients and providor. You call the leaves and flowers its friends, but this bud is week, its fallen from the tree and thus is not strong, that bud on the tree will hold the same fate. You can't expect me to think this bud is her for all it does is harden, while it slowly crumbles and dries, so the fate she has is death, theirs no way to learn for she will die. You take anything from its tree of life and it will die... The bud... how, how can you call it strong! It failed to stay on it failed, it is week and won't ever bloom, it doesn't have the strenght or seeds to make a tree so it is usless and has no such value to anything then death. The wind that blew it off took it to the blood it didn't elegantly drift. It's dead and can't survive, just like you its gone to the heavens of spirits never to return."
"Ah, my friend how you are so miss lead." Oogways voice in the wind filled with laughter as he felt a great feeling of coolisness being poured on his soul.
"Yes this should be dead, but its not, only transported to complete its growth. Awe it was taken from its substance its friends and family, but it left a gap that will be filled with a wonderful cluster of love that affects the others. It may be gone but you are mistaken my friend for it is not dead only hurt and malnurished but it has the gifts and abilty of life as we all do, it still has a chance, and you can't take that away from it. No matter how you take the leaves the grass, even harm the roots of the tree, nothing will hurt it, nor the home it once had, for every wound heals and every scar fades, all you have is memory of what was once done, it may last forever, but the most trying times can be the moment that allows great miracles and growth to live and occure because of them. A hurrican demolishes the coast, yet the cities rebuild. A great mountian erupts takes away the life it held, yet life grows and fertilizes on the new soil in years later, becoming the most fertile of life, surpassing the old beauty it once held. Droubts fill deserts and yet the plants live on to the smallest droubt and still fourish, when the rain comes they savor it and blossum beautifuly holding that new growth and beauty till the rain comes in the new season. You see everything holds life even when odds are against them, you just got to let the flower grow, encourage it, feed it, love it, bless it, nuture and smile at it, in time, though it will be tough, it becomes the most beautiful of any flower in the land. For time my friend and destiny don't answer to you, but how they answer in your actions, for they are what count most in making life the way it is, each action changes time. Each bud is born with a goal to become the best they can be, but only the small ones are strong to become the best, they may not think themselves as strong, and yet you see they hold on. You can do all you can to stop their growth, yet you only slow it, for once they pop their the boldest of them all and perserve the tree with the best nutrients it ever could have. You only need to see."
"But its dead! The flower or tree is not her, she's dying, the bud is dying and will be dead, nothing it can feed off of, what do you take me for a fool? Death has made you the worst fool ever. It is dead." Master Shifu clenches his fists and breaths hard he can't see how his friend can't see the truth in the fallen bud.
Oogways deep belly filled chuckles fill the surounding air, laughing as if he heard the best joke of his life. "Maybe I have, but you are more niaved then you believe." The wind russels the angry small panda as his large round ears are lightly blown and he holds his angry crossed arms.
"This blossum is no longer alive! Its dead!" He yells as angry as ever, yelling at nothing, for nothing was before him but the lightly pouring rain and the small light of the moon coming through the thin clouds.
"Oh is it?" Suddenly a light like that that was simular to the one that came from Annalice's black eye outlines when her eyes had turned blue was coming near and around the bud in the blood. The flower began to glow pure white, and the flower began to grow up to the sky before stoping at three feet, it formed a small tree, with this blossom that fell ontop of the tree, while it was slowly trying time and blossoming into the flower it should have been.
"What happened?" Master Shifu asked, as his jaw dropped startled at the tree that kept growing till it was the size of the previous tree and even more bright and full of life, standing their almost like a dream with thousands of flowers around it, barley alowing a green leaf to be seen.
"Her blood is that of purity and grace hypotheticly. She has some gifts the heavens bestowed upon her, though she may die or live does not matter, either way she makes a difference like this tree she's born to help others and make a difference her blood created life for a plant because it wanted to, and the flower wanted to grow into a tree instead of the flower it was. She's here for a difference, if she dies she still will help the winning of the war to come through spirit and her love for her companions, she is more than any could know. But you see this blossom will be and has become the biggest and beautiful of all, for she shall be like this and the one on the large tree there."
"You have to remember Shifu, that a flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of them all... You can't shun that flower that is growing inside her every day as this flower became a tree, you should achnoledge it every chance you get, fort he beauty it is... And... Eh... Maybe its time China and the world had a girl for a hero, she is of someplace else after all, she is stronger then she appears especially in her beliefs, she's no ordinary women, some may say she's to modernized. But a modernized hero is what the world needs, so maybe a girl shall fill that spot on her own for once, just like Po filled that spot in China and this valley... Once again don't question fate and destiny for she's more then she appears don't try discorouging it."
The wind blew and the blossom that grew and formed a white and pink flowered tree disappeared, only for a bright and gorgeous pink and white blossom ,largely grown in size and full circumfrance flower that was fully beautiful toping those even on the tree, took its place, without a sign of a twig of anysorts attachted to it, for it was just their. Floating on top of the puddle of blood once more unstained by any nuitrients, contacting itself with the puddle of blood that was only another sign of death and pain.
He crooked his head, wondering if any of the conversation had actually happened, or if he was simply going crazy. The only strange thing was a bud that was floating on the blood disapeared and in its place was this giant beautiful pink and white flower, somehow sustaining its color unstained by the red goopy blood. Somehow his mind found this flower symbolizing life and hope even in such a item that meant to all as death in such an ubadance even in the flowers own inevitible death, it somehow managed to blossum, and bring and new meaning of life to two symbols of death. He was finding understanding and love towards sucha flower reluctant to give up, for it may die but did its duty to bloom no matter the odds, and some how he felt that their now was someway the girl would survive, she may be near death, and her blood may be lost, in some miraculous way they would find a way to save her before it was to late, as his friend said only time would tell. 'For is that not what we all need time' He thought as the wind tickled his back and he felt great happiness filling him, as if it was an answer from somone else.
A light fading voice vanished as if an echoe from the heavens with the last gust of wind vanishing from hitting his back and russling his hairs. "Care for her as a daughter, my old friend." He heard in the distance of the clouds, as Shifu picked up the flower and sighed, though the growth of the flower into a tree happened and failed his friend meant something more, that the destiny of this girl was large and to make a difference for years after her death, he already knew of a war to come in years, most of the older Masters figured it out, there was an old evil rising and becoming stronger, and this girl was to be a challenger to that evil and hopefully save them all.
The small panda made his way into the palace and closed the gaits as the rain came to the world harder and the rain began to wash away the remains of her blood. The gray dark clouds reminded the grounds of the world how hard and sad this night was, lightning struck just like the fragile life that could within seconds be struck with the endless sleep of death.
