Chapter 11-Crossing to the Bridge

Rose's PoV

I now see how unready I am. I have no idea what you bring to the other side. After Aran and Ariana announced that I went into a state of shock. What am I suppose to do? Now that it's the time to actually go, I have no idea if I can do it. And what happens if I do get these powers? Won't that make my life terrible? I am no longer a bad ass until I bring back my mother. Why does fate give me the hardest missions. I had to be at the cross bridge before Adrian came or else he'll ruin everything. I sat on the bed staring up at the ceiling until a glimmer caught my eye. I looked down on the floor. My stake. I got up and picked it up. I turned it over and looked at it. All the things me and this stake has been through. I need this stake with me if I am going to do anything, who knows what the cross bridge holds for me. I wonder if I could some how bring my stake with me. I thought it over and then an idea hit me. I ran downstairs towards the kitchen with the Stake in my pocket.

"I'm ready," I announced as I leaned against the door way.

The twins exchanged glances and nodded.

"Okay, Rose, let's go." Ariana and Aran went upstairs and I followed. We walked down the hall and Ariana stopped suddenly. She looked up at the ceiling and a door appeared. Something like a ceiling door popped out of no where. Same with a ladder.

"How did you do that?" I asked.

She shrugged. We all climbed up the ladder and we ended up in a place that seemed like an attic but it wasn't an attic because how many attics have a bunch of swords stuck into the floor around a circle. Not just any circle, a glowing circle with lines in the middle that make a star. The closer we got to the circle the colder it was. Nothing sat in it though.

"What is that?" I asked, pointing to the circle.

"The Elemental Circle."

"And..."

"I summoned it when I sent your mom to the cross bridge," Ariana explained.

"What does it do?" I asked.

"The Elemental Circle represents the elements, obviously, and to send a person to the cross bridge you need the power of all the elements, including Spirit and Satan,"Aran explained.

"Where do Spirit and Satan sit? I mean each corner of the star represents an element so where do the other two stand?" I asked.

"Spirit is always in the middle, so that means no place for Satan except inside you," Ariana smiled.

"So only people like me, Aran and soon to be you can send people to the cross bridge," Ariana explained.

"Anyways, enough chit chat, sis, cut to the chase," Aran stared at his twin.

Ariana sighed and snapped her finger. Suddenly gusts of wind start to blow around us, I looked up and saw a blue/black portal open up and from in there a table with a body on top slowly floated down onto the Elemental Circle. And who lied on the table? My mom. I ran toward her when Aran pulled me back.

"Rose stop!" Aran yelled.

"Why?"I asked while fighting back.

"If you step in it now, you'll break the whole circle and ruin everything," he explained trying to restrain me. I suddenly stopped fighting back and just stood there. Aran let go of me.

"Okay Rose, if you want to step inside the circle then you need to summon Spirit first. That's the only way to step in. And do not lose concentration, lose it, and you're done for," Ariana warned.

"Okay." I closed my eyes and looked into myself, I cupped my hands together and felt the pull, and i uncupped my hands and my spirit powers were there. I smiled.

"And you know what to do after you step in, putting spirit into your mom and so on," Aran finished.

"Good luck Rose, bring her back," Ariana smiled.

"Good luck," Aran wished and they stood there watching me.

"Thank you." I smiled at my cousins and remembered my stake. If by inserting spirit into my mom, that would mean putting me into my mom, sending me to the cross bridge and so what if I put my stake in? I took my stake and stuck it into my spirit orb, the powers moved around a bit but then they were normal again. I took one last glance at the twins and focused everything on my mom. I stepped into the circle and felt the amazing rush of power in here. I felt like I was being cleansed by power. It was strange. I walked towards my mom. I felt like breaking down and crying but I knew I couldn't, I had to stay strong for everyone, for my mom especially. All around me was a white barrier, you can see from the outside but you can't see from the inside. I took one last deep breath and placed my spirit orb with a stake stuck into it on top of my mom. I watched as the orb sank in to my moms body along with my stake.

Then I felt it, the feeling of blacking out, but not exactly blacking out. My eyes closed and there was like a portal inside my head. Some part of me stepped into the portal, and I felt my spirit flow through a rush of power. Like a rush of adrenaline. It was a dark trip though, it was all black and a few seconds later I saw a blinding light in front of me, and I shut my eyes as I was forced into the blinding light, When I opened my eyes, I was floating in a beautiful place. Am I here? Is this the cross bridge? Why is it so beautiful here? I noticed I had my stake in my pocket. It worked. My idea worked.

"Rose?" I turned around and gasped.

Ariana's PoV

Me and Aran sat there, as we watched Rose experience the trip of a life time. Rose's spirit was in the cross road. She would be in full human form there but her body would be here. We could see everything Rose was seeing right now. Rose was facing us from inside the circle. But really she would be looking at a white barrier in there. Rose's eyes would be showing us everything she was seeing there but her spirit would be somewhere else. I hope she can do this. Suddenly, a thought attacked me. I closed my eyes and watched the vision in my head. Adrian was a few steps away from the door.

"Aran, door now!" I gasped and he ran out of the "Attic" and towards the door. Through my vision I saw Aran appeared in the image and Adrian knocking on our door. I snapped out of it and glanced towards the Elemental Circle.

"Good luck Rose," I whispered as I headed downstairs by my brothers side to greet an unexpected guest.

Rose is now at the cross bridge! Adrian comes! The twins now have to deal with Adrian. Haha. 7-10 Reviews before the next chapter! Thanks!
