Chapter Three Visions of the Past
FIVE DAYS LATER
Kiara wiped tears from her eyes as another memory passed through her mind. She had been sitting there for hours, just reliving things in her mind from the past, over, and over, and over. Lately she had been breaking down more and more each day. She had just received the news that her mother and father were dead. Severus paid attention a lot to her in the past few days. James had been watching her closely as well, asking if she was alright and stuff, but she still didn't have the courage to say yes.
Tears started top flood down her cheeks again as another memory of her father versioned behind her closed eyes.
FLASHBACK
A little girl sat in the window seat of her home waiting for her daddy to came home from his trip. She was about five years old, and loved her daddy more than life itself. He was practically her whole life. Nothing meant more to her than seeing him and her brother everyday.
Her face lit up when he walked into the room, lavender eyes sparkling more than they ever had.
"Daddy!" she cried as she jumped up to hug him. "I've missed you so much."
He smiled and hugged her back just as tight as she was. "I've missed you too sweetie..." he and bent down on a knee. "I got something while I was gone."
"What is it Daddy?" she asked eagerly, looking at him lovingly.
He took out a box, a think and long box, that was emerald green with black ribbon. "Look for yourself" he said and handed it to her.
She flopped down on her bed and untied the ribbon opening the box to reveal a red tear shape crystal on a silver chain. "Oh, Daddy, I love it!" she said beaming.
He smiled again and walked over to her and put it around her neck fastening it and letting it hang. "There is something special about that crystal, Ara."
She wrapped her small hand around it and looked up at him. "What is that Daddy?" she asked curiously.
"Do you see in the center where the red is the darkest, almost black?"
She nodded.
"There is a signal drop of my blood in there, so you will always have a part of me no matter what happens. Also, that one drop of blood is your protection."
"From what?" she asked.
"You will find out when you are older." He said tears forming in his eyes. "But on to happier things."
END OF FLASHBACK
She cried even harder at that memory than all of the others that had flown freely through her mind. She hated breaking down like this, but there was nothing to do. She couldn't talk to anyone. Not even Severus. No one could help her, except for herself.
She heard someone coming up the stairs of the tower and she sank further into the shadows as she tried to muffle her cries as well, but found it was no use trying. As soon as she caught a glimpse of his eyes, she knew who it was. He couldn't see her like this; she wouldn't allow it.
Too late...
"Who's up here? Show yourself at once." Announced the boy. He looked to the corner and saw her there.
"Kiara? Is that you?" asked James as he saw her puffy eyes and tears stared her cheeks.
"H-hello James." She said as she stood up and tried to wipe the tears from her eyes.
