"What! You want me to raise these….these...urrrghh?" exclaimed Ally unbelievably at Amy's request for taking care of her children. "Father was right when he said Jake made a mistake in marrying you!"

"Voltaire…how does he get in the middle of this! We got married in front of you and your father and HE seemed pretty pleased to have me in the family!" "Ally, please!" pleaded Amy, "They need protection while they're still young."

"And why can't you take care of them? Getting too old?" said Ally spitefully

"I already told you. I haven't got much time to live!.."

"About time!" interrupted her sister-in-law as she rolled her eyes.

"This is not getting me anywhere." Amy thought helplessly. "Ally please, they're really special, if they don't get to live, the dark lord will never be defeated." Said a desperate Amy.

"What do you mean that the dark lord will go undefeated without them?" Ally asked pointing carelessly at Kai and Crystal. "He wouldn't dare to hurt a fly while I'm around!" she added pompously.

Amy couldn't believe this. Here she was cradling two infants and she was only nine days from dieing and that woman in front of her was saying this! "That's just it! You WON'T be around for a long time old lady. How many years have you got to live anyway?"
"Crystal has the power to vanquish him, but she'll need Kai's support to…" Amy hurriedly explained but was cut off again as Ally said "Crystal? There must be a mistake. Kai should be the one who would finally bring the dark lord to defeat. The Man shall triumph the loss of the dark lord."

Amy smacked her forehead in frustration and tried her best to explain without blowing off. "Come ON Ally! I don't have much time over here!" "But that wasn't…"

"Silence!" Ally commanded, raised her hand. "I shall seek to the children's safety. Kai shall have the best of everything. It will be an honor to be the mother the one who conquers the Dark Lord" she finished with an evil smile. "Like mother, like son!" she spoke in an emotional voice

Stunned at Ally's remarks, Amy knew better than to argue or Crystal and Kai might end up back in the streets. "My children and she just TAKES them!"

"Alright then, you may leave Amy" said Ally. Amy protested saying "But! I'd like to be with them for a while." Ally giving a grim look said "The young ones are mine now. So leave this place!" Amy staggered back at the sacrifice she'd have to make for her children to have a safe childhood, Amy pleaded for just one last minute with them which was reluctantly granted by Ally.

"Think Amy…Think!" Amy spoke to herself "This isn't going out the way I planned." Amy knew she only had one choice left. Reaching for a pencil, she hastily wrote down in a scribble. She read the thing again and again, fighting back tears. "Is it alright? Will she be able to understand? Will she even FIND it?" Slipping the letter along with the paper from the book enclosing the prophecy behind the frame of only picture she had of herself and Jake and hid it at the very back of a cabinet. Then giving one last look at Crystal and Kai, she left.

I know, it's a short chapter. But I'll make up for it…Promise! And from the looks of the reviews I'm getting I guessthe fanfichas been proceeding slowly (is something wrong? or is it just the feeling I'm getting thatsomething's horribly missing?)Ok...time for me to think...and you know I'm open to suggestions to my writing style or expressions or blah blah blah...I don't bite you know!
