Mythical Times

Chapter 6: The Dream

"Sister! Sister!"

Thalia turned to see the small cinnamon haired five year old running up to her. She smiled. "Trieze what are you doing here? I though you were with father." She asked. He skidded to a stop in front of her and held up a single flower.

"I picked this for you. I wanted to get away from papa. He's no fun." He smiled up at her with his brilliant royal blue eyes. She took the flower from him and placed a small wreath of flowers and vines on his head in exchange.

"Well then why don't you help me with the garden? I'll teach you what each plant means and what it heals." He clapped.

"Yay!"

"I thought that I was going to help you with your garden." Thalia smiled and turned to the tall green eyed male.

"I did say that didn't I, Trowa?" She embraced him. "What took you so long?"

"The village needed help with repairs but I came as soon as I could." He bent down to eye level with the five year old. "And who is this handsome young fellow? This wouldn't be that brother that you were telling me about."

"Yes this is my little brother Trieze." She watched with delighted gold eyes as Trowa pick up her little brother and swung him around. What a memorable thing that was for her to see. Trieze looked already taken with the brunette teen. It made her love Trowa more than ever.

"Thalia!" Thalia looked up.

"Yes father?" the man looked angry. He pounded the end of his staff into the ground.

"Why isn't that immortal boy dead yet?"

"I don't wish to kill him father. He is no threat to us." She said flatly kneeling down to the sage, rowan, and rosemary herbs. She placed a few into her basket. He pounded the staff again.

"Do not argue with me, daughter! I want him dead. What is keeping you from killing him?"

"He is a nice boy. I don't think he is any threat. He isn't even a mage or sorcerer. Trowa doesn't wield any magick."

"Are you in love with him?" Thalia looked away.

"No."

"You lie. I always know when you lie. I am your father. I know when you do not tell the truth. This love you hold for the immortal boy is keeping you from getting rid of him. He is trouble for our clan."

"He is not!" Thalia stood abruptly. "Trowa wouldn't do anything to me or my family or my clan. I know it."

"You will kill him no matter what you think. You will obey me Thalia. I made you!"

He left, leaving her with a heavy, breaking heart. Fore she had to kill her love.

She positioned the blade above the sleeping teen's heart.

"I'm so sorry Trowa. I wish I didn't have to do this. But father will kill me if I don't." She raised the blade above her head. Thalia closed her eyes. "I love you." She whispered.

Thalia brought it down…

…And stopped a centimeter above Trowa's heart. The blade quivered in her hand. She couldn't do it. Not to him. "What am I doing?" The blade disappeared from her hands as she collapsed beside his bed with a sob. Tears welled up in her eyes. "I can't do it. I don't want to kill Trowa."

"I didn't think you would do it."

"Trowa?!"

"I've known the whole time what your father wanted you to do. But I knew in my heart that you wouldn't do it. You love me." Trowa said sitting up and swinging his legs over the side of the bed in one fluid motion. Thalia looked up at him with liquid gold eyes before she began sobbing. Hot, salty tears flowed down her face. He bent down and took her into his arms.

"Oh Trowa. My father thinks that you're a threat for some reason…and he wants me to…" She trailed off and continued to cry into his chest. Her hands clenched the front of his tunic, like he would disappear if she let go. Was this all just a bad dream?

"It's alright Thalia. I…I love you too."

…no it was the end of the bad dream. Because he loved her too…

Thalia picked herbs from her garden and placed them in her large basket. So far, she had avoided her father but she didn't know how much longer she could. Trowa was still alive and she knew that her father wouldn't be happy when he found out. But they were closer than ever. So close that it was a possibility that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. Bear his children, heal him when he was hurt, help him when…

Her father emerged from the forest angrily.

"Thalia! He still lives! I told you to get rid of him! You have disobeyed me and now you shall pay for it." He raised his staff to her and the tip glowed. She winced. He was angry and ready to kill. The ball of energy flew at her.

Trowa ran as fast as he could. No Thalia. I won't let him hurt you. He knew what Thalia's father was up to. Could sense something was wrong. And he would not lose his love because of her father. The tower was just ahead. Only a few more paces. He heard her scream.

He slid to a stop at the edge of the clearing just as the ball of energy hit Thalia.

I'm sorry Trowa. I love you, came the whisper in his mind as the blast dispersed leaving nothing behind.

"THALIA!"
