Chapter 2
"Why do you look like that, Retka?" Mia asked
"You have it all correct, but there was one more brother, and sister controlled all her sisters and the same with the brother, I think, but I never met him, I'm the youngest of all the daughters and sons and I have the strongest power next to the eldest sister, she was the controller of us all, but lets not think about that, I'm here to make sure that you get your memory before Minera, and Terkit try to kill any more of us. Our sister Harfit controlled the seasons, that's why we were thrown into a snowier winter than usual, and as you know well enough she was killed, by our older sister's servant, Naomi."
"So then what are the other three sister's names, wait, I think I remember one, it was um, wait don't tell it was Risika, Nicolette and um, Dominique, right?" Mia looked excited with her hopeful memory of her two sisters names.
"Right, but do you remember who was the elder of Dominique and Risika?" Retka asked
"Wasn't Dominique?"
"No, if your talking about the seven sisters then the elder of the two would be Risika, and the oldest to youngest to oldest would be-" Ryo said.
"Ryo shut-up. I'm talking to Mia and you're not helping at all."
"Retka what are you doing here?"
"I moved in with my sister, and please leave I'm talking to Mia."
"More like bossing her into remembering things, but whatever you say."
"Thank-you now please."
"I'm going, I'm going." Ryo turned and left. Mia looked at Retka and laughed.
"Ryo was wrong, Dominique was older by like an hour but Risika was the mature one."
"You remembered, great, and you have reason to celebrate, good job."
"Thanks, before we call it quits could we work on this a little more, please?"
"Why not. Ok, do you remember who had what power?"
"I think so, lets see, Minera is the controller sister, Risika controls the weather, Dominique is the shape shifter, Harfit controlled the seasons, I'm the Oracle, Nicolette is the time traveler, you control the elements and the two brothers um Terkit is the controller brother, and I never remember our other brother's name but he's the life giver."
"Good job, our other brother's name is Accolon, good job, you even named them in order but do you remember where the boys fit in?"
"I think so, Terkit was born about a year after Minera, and Accolon is your twin, right?"
"Right, one more question, then we need to stop for today, too much and you won't remember anything at all, ok, last question, who was older, Accolon or me?"
"You."
"Great, now we'll continue this later, I need you to have this sink in, but we can't dally, I still need to help you remember how to use your powers and I need to find Nicolette, Accolon, and Dominique."
"Hey um who helped you remember everything?"
"Harfit, and Terkit, well Terkit helped the most, half way through, Minera came and convinced Harfit that she could control the world and more if she joined Minera's side and well she did, as you know, but no more, we need to do other things and there's little time left in the day."
After Retka told Mia that Ryo, Rowen, and Sage came in the room with Yuli and White Arrow and White Blaze.
"Retka, what the heck are you doing here?" Sage and Rowen asked at almost the same time.
"I live here, I moved in today, well Mia I'm going to unpack and then I'll be going on a run."
"Did you finish your homework?"
"What homework?"
"The homework your teachers gave you."
"They didn't give me any." Retka said and walked up to her room to settle in. Rowen followed her to ask her a couple of questions.
"Rowen if you have a question, just ask, no need to follow me around."
"Well, I wanted to know why you wouldn't go out with Sage?"
"Well," Rowen stopped, following her and waited. "You can come in ya know."
"Oh, thanks." Rowen entered and sat in one of the chairs by the computer.
"I turned Sage down because, well, I wanted to meet other guys and he looks like the type of guy who'd flirt with well to be honest, he only flirts with the good looking girls, and new girls, but he should wait a couple of days before asking them out, it was a total turn off, that he was totally flirting with me then he was all 'hey do you ant to go out?' that's not the type of guys I go out with."
"Really, what kind then?"
"You don't want to know, really it's too stupid." Retka said then reached for one of her bags and started to put things on a shelf.
"Are you sure, the way you said that it almost makes it sound like a lesbian, are you?"
"NO!!! of course not, that it so stupid, ME, GAY?? Uh huh, no way, never."
"So what type of guys do you like to date then?"
"I like guys who, are smart, caring, not a complete flirt, they shouldn't like getting drunk or drinking a lot, they need to like reading, I'll not bore you with a long list, but I'll add one more thing to the list, I have to trust them and know them well enough to be comfortable to be alone with them."
"That's not too bad, my ex-girlfriend had higher standards than that, but I somehow passed them or she felt sorry for me, but I don't mind, we broke up because I wanted to, well I'm not entirely sure, but we needed to break up."
"Oh, well I'm gonna change so I can go jogging, so if you don't mind could you please leave." Retka looked like she was trying to be polite but didn't know how with her request.
"Mia, I'll be back, I'm going, call my cell if you need me."
"Sure, her why not take Kento, he could use a jog, it might even help him loose those pounds he wanted to loose, and he sure would stop asking about dinner."
"Sure, but I'll be a little late for dinner."
"That's fine just don't tell Kento."
"Alright, Retka, let's go jogging, and Rowen's coming with us, if I can't eat, then he can't read, it's only fair, so ready Rowen?"
"You didn't tell me she was coming, but I'm ready."
"Well I'm gone, you took too long!" Retka yelled over her shoulder, already putting more of a distance between them.
"HEY, WAIT FOR USSS!" Kento yelled at Retka as he started sprinting off, Rowen went off at a slow paced jog.
"Hey, look who's coming our way, Naomi, it's my little sister, make sure you don't mess this time up, I'm running out of patience with you this time and who knows what my master will say." a voice said to Naomi.
"I'll try, but there's two Ronin Wimps with her, this time." Naomi replied looking into the
shadows behind her.
"I'll let you use some guards, fine, but try to let them do most of the work, then attack after they're tired from fighting them, I know my sister will, she hasn't fought them for ages."
"Thank you Minera, I'll do my best this time, I won't fail you or our master."
"This better be true, now go, they're almost over here."
