I was finally able to access my doc app on my iPad again to get chapter three posted. The thing is so weird now. But this chapter is a bit short anyway. Kinda emotional too. Just bear with me.


Chapter 3

That night was somewhat peaceful. Matthew had the TV on extra loud, annoying the boys. But for Liliana, they had specifically sound-proofed her room. She couldn't hear beyond Antonio's room.

She was sleeping soundly as a faint golden light appeared above her head, illuminating her dream. She dreamt of a place far from where she was, spending all day and everyday with her brothers and making friends. A genuine smile graced her lips as a sigh escaped them. The light began to glow even brighter as a figure floated outside her window, working extra hard to give her a really good dream.

Twirling, golden sand is what created the light. And its master, the Sandman. He had a look of pure concentration as he crafted the dream for Liliana. He even put in an actual Christmas for good measure. Since it was late fall in their town, he let her dream about snowball fights with her brothers and making snow angels.

His work was coming to an end when a certain bright green fairy appeared next door to the Perez home to pick up a lost tooth. She turned to see Sandman floating not far away and decided to take a peek. Toothiana smiled at the girl's sleeping form, snuggled under her covers as if her life was the same as everyone else's. the sight made Toothiana want to cry.

The Guardians had a specific interest in the teenager since she didn't have a childhood like most girls should. They discovered her mother's death and father's cruel treatment early on when Jack had found her crying one day in the park. North had assigned Sandman to give her extra special dreams ever since. Jack, Bunnymund and Toothiana kept a close eye on her as well.

Toothiana laid a hand on Sandman's shoulder when he finished. "Good job Sandy. She'll be really happy in a few hours. Now I think we should head back."

Sandman nodded and the two took of into the early morning light toward the North Pole for a meeting with the other Guardians about the situation.
