Chapter 2: The Babe
Author's Note: ON TO CHAP 2!!!!!!
"TOLAKU!!!! Where could she be?" Julia said as she glided above the trees, her best friend had disappeared hours ago, and Julia and Max had gotten worried.
"Jewel!!!" Julia responded to the nickname that Tolaku and Max had given her a long time ago. She turned around to see Max flying towards her.
"Did you find her Max?"
"No." They floated there in silence, but something had caught their ears.
"What was that?"
"I don't know, let's go check it out." Max glided over to the source of the sound with Julia not too far behind.
"It's down there," Julia said pointing through the trees. She looked at Max and he nodded and they both glided towards the ground. Once on the ground they could hear the sound better now.
"It's sounds like a…"
"Baby," finishing his sentence, Julia walked over to a bush and peered into and the sound stopped. Max walked over to her and peered over her shoulder.
"What the?" Max saw in a basket wrapped in a blanket was indeed a baby.
"Oh Max!!! Isn't it cute?"
"But what is a baby doing here? No one else lives on this island except for us?"
Julia picked up the baby and held it in her arms. The baby's green eyes were looking at them curiously, "Look! It thinks we're its parents!"
Max took a few steps back, "Let's go talk to Damon." After a few seconds a he jumped into the air and flew back to the house that they built.
Julia stayed behind and was tickling the baby, which was giggling, "He just doesn't understand, your adorable and we're going to take care of you." And she slowly took flight making sure that the baby doesn't feel uncomfortable while she was flying.
I wish Kai was here, we could take care of this baby together, she thought to herself as she floated home as well.
"We need to give you a name," Julia said, as the baby start gurgling in baby talk. She smiled softly and looked up at the sunset.

Tolaku didn't move she was too shocked and frightened at the same time. Does he care about me? Does he have a girlfriend? Probably does, any girl would want to go out with him. He probably thinks as me as a freak because I'm Calain. I wish I could disappear, I can't do that but I can do the next best thing…fly away.

Ray couldn't believe his eyes!! She was back!! But there was something different she looked scared. We wondered why. Just then he saw her bright red wings appear.
What is she doing? He asked himself. She looked into his eyes once more he could sadness but why. She took a step back paused for a second, and started sprinting in the opposite direction.
"W…wait!!! Come back!!!" Ray ran after her, but she spread out her wings and took flight in the air, looking over her shoulder every few seconds. He ran after her until she was out of sight he then walked slowly to the park, took a seat on the bench, and put his head in his hands.
What did I do wrong?

"Yo!! Damon, what's this baby doing in the wilderness?" Max said as he landed in front of the house that they had built four years ago. Damon was outside, seating by the fire he had just lit.
He hadn't changed over the years. Still had his silvery hair that went to his chin. He would now be in his early twenties, maybe 22 to be exact. He turned his red eyes towards Max.
He smiled, "Good afternoon Max!!"
"We gotta a problem!!!"
"Oh really."
"Tolaku is gone, no where to be seen AND we found this baby in the wilderness."
"A baby?"
"Yeah that's right!!"
Damon closed his eyes and went into deep thought, "How old?"
"It looks like it would be a couple of months," Max said curiously.
"Nothing it was just a silly thought, now where is this baby?"
"Julia has it." As if on cue, Julia floated down right next to Damon.
"Hullo!!!" She said cheerfully rocking the baby back in forth.
"Let me see it," Max said extending an arm out towards Julia.
Julia ignored him and tickled the baby's chin, "It's not an it, and it's a HER!"
"What?"
"It's FEMALE!!
"How could you tell?"
Julia shot him a nasty glare, and he faltered back slightly.
"N…never mind."
"Oh and by the way her name is Rose."
"Don't name it!! Uh..." Max stuttered as Julia gave him another nasty glare, "I mean her."
"It's perfect for her, she has bright red hair and beautiful green eyes!!"
"Whatever!"
Damon chuckled and stood up from his seat, "Ah, I see our little Max is afraid to add one more to our little family." Julia and Damon laughed, while Max clenched his teeth and muttered something that no one could hear except for him.
"Thank you so much!!!" Julia cried in between breaths. Max just glared at them.
"Well I'm sorry I had to make my visit so short but I really need to run."
Julia looked at him sadly, "Why do you always leave, where do you go?"
Damon smiled at her, "I'm sorry I can't tell you that," he turned to Max, "I need to talk to you."
Max nodded and followed onto a path in the forest. After a few minutes Damon stopped and turned around to face Max.
"There is something I have to tell you, and try to keep this from Julia. I don't want her to be worrying about the child."
Max titled his head to the side, "Okay?"
"That baby is actually another Calain, I'm not sure what type though. We have to be careful because we don't know what her powers are. You got that?"
Max blinked a couple of times, "no."
Damon sighed and then smiled, "You want to know something?"
"Sure."
"I was taking a walk in the forest when I come upon some temple that had been abandoned for years like that castle of yours."
"And?"
"Anyway, I went inside and found something that make you fly in the clouds."
"I do that every morning just after sunrise."
"That's not the point!!! Inside is the pool of some type of magical water. You use it to teleport to other places in the world."
Max just stood there frozen, then he began to twitch.
"I know what you're thinking," Damon smile widened and his eyes held a little twinkle.
In a split second later, Max hugged Damon, "I LUV YA MAN!!!!!!! YOU'RE THE GREATEST!!!!"
Damon laughed as he patted Max on the back, "Alright, but I have to tell you one more thing."
Max let go and stood in front of him, "What's that?"
"You can only use at noon."
"Damn! We have to wait more!!!"
"You've been waiting four years, what's another day?" Damon started to walk off.
"Hey Damon?"
"Hmm."
"You'll come with us right?"
"Sorry bro, gotta stay here and protect this island, but I'll visit don't worry about that."
Max smiled as he watched what was an older brother walk off in the woods and disappears. He quickly turned around and sprinted towards the camp.
"JULIA WE'RE GOING HOME!!!!!!!!"
