All mistakes are my own, however im good at sharing so feel free to take any. :)
I don't own glee or its characters... yet.
So find the one who bares the mark,
the one of only half a heart.
"Truth, truth about what?"
"Do you remember the day I gave you that bracelet?" her mother asked.
15 years ago...
Isabelle walked hand in hand with her daughter to the small house with the enchanting purple door. Behind that door was the majestic seer, he was known threw out Dashania as the wisest, and most accurate seer there ever was. His prophecies and visions were widely sought after, especially from the rich. That is why she brought every penny she had to her name, in hopes of getting a meeting. With the passing of her husband she was scared, unsure of her next move, and that is how she ended up at the seers doorstep.
"Mama, what are we doing her?" her daughter asked confused, yet enthused by the big purple door.
"We are going to see a very important man." Isabelle said looking down at her beautiful little girl.
"Is it papa?" she asked enthusiasticly.
Isabelle tried hard to hold the tears threatening to escape and kneeled down in front of her daughter. "No sweetheart, remember papa is gone. He is with abuelo and abuela remember."
Realization hit the little girl as she remembered the death of her father. She began to sob at the thought.
"Now, now no more tears sweetie. This man is going to tell us what we will do next. As long as we have each other we will be happy right?" She asked wiping her daughters tears away.
She looked in her mothers eyes for courage before nodding.
"Right, okay so all you have to do baby is stay really quiet, so this nice man can help us. Can you do that for mama?"
Her daughter nodded again.
Isabelle stood and knocked swiftly on the door now standing as she grasped her daughters tiny hand.
An older woman cracked open the door, she looked to be in her fifty's. "Who are you? What is you purpose?"
"Hello, I am Isabelle and this is my daughter. We are here to seek the services of the seer."
The woman on the other side of the door opened a little wider and looking annoyed she glanced between the mother and child. "The seer does not take requests, if you are of importance you will be sought out by him not the other way around. Good day."
Just as she was about to slam the door shut, Isabelle put her hand out to keep the door open. "Please, I have brought every last penny that I own. I just need some guidance."
The woman could care less about the sad desperate words, and proceeded to shut the door anyways. However an old quiet voice made her stop. "Let her in Sarafina, don't be rude."
The woman rolled her eyes, but eventually moved aside to let the two strangers in. Leaving the two without an direction, she left for the kitchen. Isabelle followed the voice she had heard earlier to a comfy chair. In it sat the seer, looking very old as he sat comfortable in his chair. "I apologize for my daughters behavior, she is only rude when it comes to my health. Seeing the future can sure take a lot out of an old man, even as powerful as I am."
"I understand, but I wouldn't be here unless it was extremely important."
"So I can tell by the desperation in your voice. Tell me child what sort of guidance do you seek?" he asked as he pointed to a sofa across from him that they could sit on.
Isabelle sat on the sofa and placed her daughter on her lap, allowing her to play with the wedding ring on her finger as a distraction. "I am just looking for a clue as to what my next step is, and if me and my daughter will be okay. My husband passed away recently, and I don't know what to do."
The seer watched the woman as she spoke tears on the brink of spilling over. "I am very sorry for your loss, I too lost my other half. A terrible thing the human condition is. Perhaps I can help you."
Isabelle overcome with joy placed her small daughter in her spot and went to the old man. "Thank you. I can give you all the money I own, just thank you so much." she kneeled in front of him, lowering her head and hands onto his knee. "Thank you wise seer."
She felt a chill run down her spine, then an uncontrollable shaking beneath her fingers, only it wasn't coming from her. She looked up at the old man as he shook uncontrollable, and his eyes had a gray cast over them. She gasped loudly and sarafina hearing it came rushing in.
"What have you done!" She screamed.
"N-nothing. I don't understand. What is going on?" Isabelle asked frightened.
"He is having a vision. It must be a really strong one, I have never seen him shake this wildly before." She placed a hand against her fathers cheek. "Please be okay, come back father."
As if he heard his daughters plee, the shaking stopped, and he closed hos eyes then slowly opened then again. "water... water please,"
Sarafina ran to the kitchen to fetch some water, and come back as quick as a cheetah. "Here father drink." He grabbed the cup and slowly drank it, "Thank you my dear."
He then looked at the shaken woman kneeling in front of him and smiled. Almost all the tiredness gone from the vision, and even before that when they first waked in. He then glanced at the small terrified child sitting huddled against the arm chair of the couch. Feeling bad for being the reason this little angel was now scared and on the verge of tears, he beckoned the child to come over.
"Come here little one, its all right." Being told to always listen to her elders, the little girl complied scooting off the couch, and hesitantly making her way to the old man.
She stopped a couple of feet away, still terrified at the events that just recently occurred. "Do you see that woman there." Pointing to his daughter. "She is my daughter, and she makes the best candies in all of Dashania. Even the queen asks for her delicious candies."
The child stared wide eyed at the woman and the mention of candy. "Im sure she would love to give you some dots. Would you like that?" The girl nodded rapidly and with excitement.
"Sarafina be a dear and give this child some of your delicious dots."
"Yes father, come child I have some that have just finished cooling," she waited for the child then lead her into the kitchen.
Both mother and seer watched them leave before looking back at each other. "My dear you have some future ahead of you."
Isabelle was elaighted. "So we will be okay then?"
"More then okay. She id part of s new prophacy."
"She? You mean my child? What prophecy?" Confusion spread threw her like wild fire as she looked from the door her daughter just left and then back at the seer.
"Yes your little one. I saw it clear as day, when you touched me. She will be the one to bring us out of the darkness of Elec. She will be our future queen, and lead our army into the darkness to destroy all the evil Elec has spread." He smiled to himself remembering the memory. "It will be gloriouse."
She was just struck on that one word, queen. "Queen? That is impossible, she has no royal blood. Maybe it was someone else you were seeing," She ranted nervously, hoping that the seer didn't already know her secret.
"You would really lie to a seer, no matter let me ask you this. Does your little one have a birthmark on her wrist?"
Isabelle blinked nervously, why was she surprised that he knew that, he was the seer for goodness sakes. "Y-yes, but that doesn't mean anything a lot of children have birthmarks."
"Ones shapes perfectly like half a heart, don't kid yourself dear that is rare."
"This is ubserd, I left that lifestyle a long time ago, I did not want that life for her," she said getting up ready to leave.
"Im afraid this is much bigger then you my dear, all Dashanians well being lie in the hands of your child." His words halted her in her tracks. "This is not something you can run from."
Isabelle spoke but didn't turn around. "You said she will be queen of this land. That means that the child survived the attack from Elec?"
"Im surprised you have not heard, but yes. I was actually summoned this morning to come for dinner and bless the child. Ensure a healthy future and all."
She turned around but stills in her spot. "How exactly do they meet? We are only commoners, how does one become married to a prince with such a low status?"
"That is where I come in. It seems I am to get you a job as a cook at the castle."
"That still does not answer my question, how does status suddenly not become an issue, when it has been so for as long as the earth was round?"
"Simple, LOVE," he said putting emphasis on the word love, in hopes she would finally understand.
"Love?" She scoffed. "You and I both know love means nothing to the queen and the high court."
"You little one will grow up to be one pace of the greatest love that Dashania will ever witness. She will change EVERYTHING. Love, status, good, evil, nothing will ever be the same again."
Looking down she muttered sadly. "It will be a hard life wont it?"
"Yes there will be some heartache, but the outcome... the outcome will be worth it." He gets up to hold her hand. "I felt it dear, their love... it was... magnificent, magical even. I feel 20 years younger, just witnessing it. You must tell me the name of your child, our future queen."
"You could not tell from your vision?"
"No deary, I can only see and feel during a vision, no words are spoken. So please tell me? I must be able to put a name to half of that love, to our savior."
She uttered one word, and the seer knew his life would be changed forever. "Santana."
Woo! This took me forever, between writing my speech, finishing my art project, finishing up my christmas video montage for my best friend, and typing this I am dead. Seriously im tired of typing I need them to invent a computer that reads my mind and types exactly what im thinking. My fingers hurt. :(
Anyways, what did you guys think? Pleased? What do you think is the secret Santana's mom Isabelle is talking about?
Next chapter is the Royal Ball (Say royal ball in like an old woman's english voice, it make reading the beginning of this line funner, try it.) Will there be jealousy? A plot twist? Familiar guests? Your just gonna have to wait till next chapter... tum tum tum!
