~~~~~ 7 Years Later~~~~~~~
Three young girls played happily together on a farm protected and hidden
away from the rest of the real world. All that matter were these three girls were
safe and sound. Ilene and her husband had found this farm a few years back and started
to slowly make it a home. It was far enough from town, but it was also just a day
rides in, if they needed any thing. Yes, this would protect the girls for now. Ilene
looked out at the young girls. Lita was the tomboy of the group. She was about a
foot taller than Sere and Amy. She had alburn hair which went down to the middle of
her back. She had bright green eyes. They looked like a gem stone Ilene once owned.
Next there was Amy, she was such a bright child wanting to learn anything and everything
she could possibly. There was just something Amy hide from all of them. She is pretty
sure it has something to do with the way they found her in the forest. Finally there
was Sere, she was the smallest out of them all. She was so fragile looking, but looks
could be very disceaving. She had long pale blond hair which suddenly started having
silver highlights. Her eyes were a grey blue in color.
Ilene looked around seeing Claire coming toward her as she sat on the
porch watching over the girls as they played. She was so glad they had found someone
else in their same situation. It was only by chance they had met up with Lita and
Claire four years ago. Ilene remembers the day so clearly.
********Flashback*******
They were out walking through the market place in Calmar when Serena had
wandered away from them. As they frantically looked for Serena, they had found her
with a young girl no more than two year older than Serena. The little girl had medium
length alburn hair held out of her face by a rubber band. She was wearing a pair
of trouser which were defintely made for a young boy and a white shirt. All over the
little girl's face were black smudges. She was terribly flithy. She also had a scratch
under her left eye.
Ilene, Ken and Amy had come when the two girls were being bombared by three large
men. The men seem to be getting closer while the bigger girl kept Serena behind her.
Ilene saw Lita, who she would find out her name was, lift her hands in front of her.
What scared Ilene the most was the look in Lita's eyes. They looked as if they went
black then suddenly you could see wind and electricity in them.
Ilene turned as she heard someone shout, "NO Lita, Don't!" But it was already
too late. Illene was so scared for the girls not because they would be hurt. But for
the reason someone might find out about them. Ilene looked on in horror when she saw a
bolt of electricity shoot out of Lita's hands heading straight toward the men slowly
approaching them. Suddenly the men went flying 10 feet behind themselves hitting the
wall hard, knocking themselves out cold. They ran for the girls want to check to see
if they were alright.
"Sere, honey. Are you alright? Did they hurt you?" Ilene gathered Serena in her
arms.
"Lita, what did you do? I told you not to use your special powers."
"But Claire, those disgusting men were going to hurt my new friend Sere." Lita
looked over to Serena in Ilene's embrass.
"They really scared me, momma." Serena whimpered as she put her head on my
shoulder.
"Ilene." Ken called. "Come here quickly." Ilene turned and slowly walked
to where Ken was with Claire and Lita in tow.
"How are they?" Ilene asked knowing it really looked bad. You could see
only one man was breathing. The men laid there not moving all twisted in weird positions.
'I know no one's body can twist that way.' Ilene flinched then looked back at Ken.
"This one has barely a pulse left and well his breathing isn't any better.
Those two well...." Ken trailed off not wanting to finish.
"Ahhhhh.....no." Claire screamed, "How will I protect you now? They will
definitely want to hunt us down."
"Momma, it is going to be okay." Lita hugged Claire.
It was then Serena turned in my arms, "Momma, I can help. Please let me help."
Ilene looked at Serena and set her down. Serena walked over to where Ken was.
She held her hands out and closed her eyes as to concentrate. Beginnig to chant in some
unknown language, the wind started to pick up around Serena lifting her hair wildly
about her. Her cresent moon which was hidden revealed itself glowing a bright silver.
It was a warm blinding light which flowed through her to her hands. The light seem to be
touching the men. Moments later the mens' breathing was going more steadily and the cuts,
and bruises seem to have disappeared. Serena dropped her hands then fell to her knees.
Ilene ran to Serena and scouped her up into her arms.
"I did it, momma. They are going to be okay." Serena smiled weakly then closed
her eyes as she laid her head on Ilene's shoulder. I turned to see Ken, Claire and Lita
standing around me.
"Thank you." Claire smiled. We were brought out of our little world when we
heard footsteps and voices approaching us.
"I think I saw them go down this way."
"Ladies, we must leave now. Let's go before we have to explain what just
happen." Ken lead everyone down an alley and out of the city.
********End of flashback********
"It is a beautiful day." Claire sat next to Ilene, "Don't you think?"
"Yes, very beautiful." Ilene continued to watch the girls.
"You know we can't protect them forever." Claire looked at the girls, "They
are getting older. All we can do is teach and guide them."
"I know you are right, but it is hard." Ilene sighed.
"It is hard. Although I do think the girls can take care of themselves. We just
need to help them develop their powers." Claire stood up and walked into the house.
"Yes, we do." Ilene stood up and followed Claire into the house.
Claire went into the kitchen to help get dinner started with Ilene. Claire
began to rinse off the green beans. She started think about all of the things Lita and
herself went through. Even though they weren't blood related, Lita was definitely her
daughter. She would give her life to protect the tomboy who had captured her heart. It
was the moment she laid her eyes on the child and her real mother.
A tear slide down her face as she remembered the pain Catherine's face held and
the way she was coughing up so much blood.
Catherine's last words rang through her head, "Please protect my child. Keep her
as your own. She is a gift from me to you. Please watch over her."
"Claire?" Ilene looked at her, "Are you feeling okay?"
"I am fine, just thinking." Claire wiped away the tears. "Let's just get dinner
finished." The rest of the afternoon was spent in peaceful silence as they got dinner
going.

That is it for this chapter. I hope you liked.
Now I first want to apologize for not having this out a lot sooner. But
I had writer's block and then I have been really sick. I do hope you will
continue to look for this story. Thank you.
