Legend of the Ghost Guardians: Hopeful Storm

Chapter 2: Her Name is Aurora


"It all began with a young woman who was 21 years old and was a student at a national university in Chicago. She earned a scholarship to cover some of her tuition and worked a part time job to take care of the rest."


It was a beautiful, clear sunny day in the city of Chicago. The sun was shining brightly, the birds were singing, and the kids were laughing since school is out for the summer vacation that had arrived. It was almost the end of June that our story begins.

In the suburbs of Chicago, there was a small white apartment which is a home for some of the college students attending the university. It had 3 floors; many shuttered windows, and locked doors. Everyone had left to either enjoy their summer vacation or attend summer jobs to get extra credits, all except one.

A young 21 year old woman was just packing her last set of luggage into her small blue car. She had bluish black hair, blue eyes, and tan skin. She was wearing a dark blue shirt, light blue jeans, shoes, and has a moon necklace around her neck. Her name is Aurora Boreal and she was preparing to leave to go to a special place she was looking forward to all semester. She had finished her junior year and received good grades and a full vacation from her part time job until autumn comes. Once she was finished, she started the car and drove away to her favorite vacation spot.


-A half hour later—

Aurora had stopped at the side of the road to look at her map. She was trying to find the quickest route to her destination which was near Lake Eerie. While studying her map, a strong wind blew around her and she suddenly felt a presence of someone or something coming towards her. She looked out of her window and saw nothing. It wasn't long before she saw a big shadow flying over her car. She gasped when she saw the shadow and thought that it was too big to be a bird, too fast for an eagle, and especially too close to be a plane. In fact, it looked kind of human shaped.

She jumped out of her car and looked for the stranger. She called out to try to contact it.

"Hello! Is anybody there?" but no answer came.

"I just want to know who you are. I won't hurt you so you don't have to hide!"

When no sound was heard, Aurora became disappointed and went inside her car and drove off towards the mountain road.


Aurora had finally arrived at her destination at Lake Eerie. There was a family sized log cabin, with many windows, big wooden door, a porch, and a chimney. Outside was the lakeside view, a small field for crops, a shed, and a well. The cabin was hers and her parents ever since she was little.

She remembered how they visit here every summer where she hiked the woods, went fishing and canoeing with her dad, pick fruits and berries from the forest with her mom, and had a campfire every night while stargazing.

Aurora loved this place more than anything and her dreams were to graduate college and live in that cabin for as long as she lives.

After moving back to reality from her trip down the memory lane, she realized that her cabin was filthy, a little ugly and really could use a fixer upper.

"It looks like I got my work cut out for me. But it's nothing like a little elbow grease couldn't fix," she admitted after looking at the sight that going to take some time fixing up. But when she entered the cabin, the sight was worse compared to the outside: Cobwebs were everywhere, dust covering all the furniture, and there're even holes on the roof and floors.

"Better make that a truckload of elbow grease," she said as she began to work.

First, she swept the floor while falling through the holes once or twice. Then she fixed the roof although the rain caused her more trouble with the leaks for a couple of days. It took her a week but she managed to have everything done and had blisters to prove it, ironic isn't it?

Luckily for her, the electricity still works and she get water from the stream. Later, she went to the market in a small town near her home to get groceries. She usually prepares her favorite dinner which is rice balls, with chicken kebabs and bread. While eating, she reminisced about her childhood and her parents.

When Aurora was a little girl, she was a kind and sweet and always got good grades at school. But sadly, she was very lonely since she never had any close friends to be with or even hang out. She believes that this was due to her liking many things that most girls don't such as wearing dark colored clothes, barely wore dresses, always drawing, reading, and listening to music. But the one thing that made her different was her spiritual belief in mythical creatures especially ghosts and spirits. Ever since she read articles about ghost hunters and portals, she began to be interested in them and hoped to see a ghost with her own eyes.

Her only companions were her parents whom she loved very much. They did everything together especially in the summer in the cabin. She went canoeing and fishing with her dad, with her mom, she picked berries and harvest some vegetables they grew in their garden. And every night, they had a campfire, roasted marshmallows for s'mores, and star gazed after that. She even remembered the last time she saw them when she made a promise to them.


"Flashback"

"Look daddy! A shooting star!" a 17 year old Aurora shouted as she saw the star fly by outside her bedroom window. She closed her eyes and made a wish.

"What did you wish for, sweetie?" her father, a tall, black haired man with brown eyes asked while her mother who had blue eyes and bluish black hair smiled.

"I can't tell or it won't come true," she answered happily.

Her mother then happily said "Well, Your father and I also made a wish too, but we will tell you anyway."

"Why, Mom?" Aurora wondered. Her mother smiled.

"Because we know it will come true for we have faith in it. We wished for your happiness and especially for a special future that in store for you."

"But, what is my future? I don't have any friends. I'm all alone. It's because I'm not normal." Aurora said with a frown. She then felt a soft hand on her cheek and looked up to see her mother with a soft smile and eyes.

"You are special in your own way just as everyone else has their own way as well. It doesn't matter what everyone else thinks. Just be who you are meant to be: yourself."

Her father who came beside his wife said, "Your mother's right, Aurora. We love you because you are you and our daughter. Nothing else matters."

"Which is why we decided to give this." Her mother later took a small gift wrapped box from behind her and handed it towards Aurora who smiled and happily opened it. Inside was a beautiful necklace with a light blue crescent moon.

"Oh, Mother, this is beautiful!" She cried as she praised the necklace.

"We were going to give you this on your eighteenth birthday, but we thought it would be best to give it to you now." Her mother then took the necklace and wrapped it around her daughter's neck.

"I don't know what to say, mom and dad, but thank you very much." She said it with tears in her eyes.

Her mother said "Your welcome, sweetheart. Just promise me two things. Promise that no matter what, always smile so that you may overcome anything and promise that in the future when you have a daughter, you will give the necklace to her. It has been in my family for generations being passed down to the eldest daughter. Think you can do the task?"

Aurora looked at the necklace, thinking about these promises until she said with a smile "Yes, I will do it for our family". She laughed as she went to hug her parents which they happily accepted. "I love you."

"And we will forever for our love is constant as the stars above." Her parents said proudly.

"End Flashback"


That was the last time she saw them before they died in a car accident when she came home from school the next day. It was the saddest day of her life, but she move on to her life because it is what her parents would have wanted.

It's been four years since the accident and she still remembered the good times with them. She later felt tears forming over her eyes and she wiped them away.

She later finished her meal and went to bed for the night but not before she saw a shooting star flying outside by her window. She closed her eyes and made a wish.

"Hello shooting star, it's me again. I know I made many wishes so far, but for this one, I want it to come true with all heart. I wish that I had someone who would care for me, who would accept me no matter what, why not an angel? The most beautiful one you could give me."

And with that she went to bed. Little does she know that she will get the wish she wished for.


What will happen? Will she be happy what the wish will give her?

You just have to read the next chapter to find. I accept reviews ideas and wishes, but no insults!
