Today was pretty normal when I got up, but as soon as I reached for the kitchen door, I had a premonition. This man showed up in flames, but that's all I got. I told my sisters about it, naturally. "Where was this?", and "Who was he?" were among the many questions asked me.
"It was here in the kitchen and if I knew who it was don't you think I would've said?" I shouted at them. They quieted.
"Sorry," they mumbled.
"No, I'm sorry, hug?" But before they could answer there was a bang and a "Hello".
There was a pretty long silence. The man was exactly like the one in my premonition. He had scraggly black hair that stuck up everywhere. He was wearing a black cloak that went all the way down to his knees. His shirt and pants were also black. He looked about eighteen to twenty to me, but then again, that's just me.
"Who are you?" Carmen asked.
"My name is Julian. I was sent by your dad. You want to go meet him?" He had this English accent that probably charmed everyone.
"Dad?" repeated Carmen. "Our dad?"
"That's correct. Conner has been dying to meet you for sometime now."
"Conner?" Carmen took a step forward.
"Carmen, what are you doing?!" Shawna yelled. Carmen shook her head and took a step back. "Bring us our dad then, if he wants to see us so badly." The man, Julian, didn't move. "Go on!" "Julian" left.
"Carmen! What happened; are you ok?" I asked hugging her. "Yeah, fine, something pulled me to him and I kind of lost all consciousness, but luckily Shawna called out my name and I was able to shake it off." She hugged Shawna. "Thanks Sis."
"Hey, no prob!" We were about to have another group hug when there was another bang and this time it was louder. We turned to look and sure enough it was Dad and standing next to him was Julian.
"Dad?" We all said in unison.
"Dad" was wearing the same thing as Julian, but where his left breast was, was a crest of some sort. "Yes. Hello." He did not have an accent, in fact he sounded like us (except that he was a guy, not a girl). "Well then, Carmen, coming along nicely aren't you?"
"What do you mean? Why are you here?" Shawna yelled at him.
"I've come to take Carmen away. She's to be the next heir. Julian?" Julian did something, but the next thing I knew Shawna fell and so did I.
