Little Sisters Are Annoying

PART X

Clouds drifted about the realm, and invaded the heavenly blue sky. Golden beams of light shot through the clouds and enlightened the sky, before falling upon six people, all whom were seated at the stone table.

But they were no ordinary people, they were guardian angels, who had existed since the dawn of time, watching and helping the gummi kind, but very rarely did they ever let themselves be seen, unless one was in desperate need and was falling into despair.

Seated around the table of stone, decorated and engraved upon it, were ancient languages, written in different forms, that only they knew about.

Guessing from all the riot, the six guardians were holding a Council meeting, when one spoke up

"Cammi's quest is a difficult one, more so than his dealings in the past with Tarquan" he said his orange eyes sparkling.

His name was Windsall, as he moved a strand of his shoulder length, light red hair, out of his face. His clothing was of a royal crimson robe, enlined with golden strips, to match his hair, and his pale snow-white fur.  His silver wings closed round him, almost like he was embracing himself.

"And so he shall be aided, once again, with our help, for we know that he cannot face this quest alone, as what is yet to pass" said a wise, patient and solemn voice, casting silence among the Council. He was the oldest of all the guardians in the room, and his name was Godrin.

A smile graced his lips, as he allowed his gaze to fall upon each of the guardian, one by one. His wings opened, revealing his clothing of a gold and silver robe, his fur being a heavenly blue, and his short hair, a mixture of gold and brown streaks, most unusual for a guardian.

"He had already been given some hints by me to help him, start his quest which he has already begun, though I do not think that he quite understands yet, as to what he has to do" said the former guardian Lalaith who had spoken with Cammi previously not long ago.

"Then it is wise, that you should go down and help him," said the guardian seated beside her.

Her name was Linastasia, as her cat like yellow eyes searched her friends.

Apart from the eyes her physical appearance was just the same as Lalaith, except for her dress, which was also glittering silver, but had spaghetti stripes all the ways down.

"Me" asked Lalaith looking towards Linastasia.

"Yes" said another voice, whom she recognized as Loucielle "Because Cammi trusts you more, not to mention you two have befriended one another, and are quite good friends" said Loucielle beaming at Lalaith. Her appearance was of long blonde hair tied in a long platt down between her wings and stopped when it reached her knees,. Her fur a light cream sand white, and her eyes a light pink. Her clothing she wore was a lime green dress embroided and enlined with yellow fancy decorations.

Lalaith nodded her head to show she understood and a smile graced her lips when she said

"When shall I leave"

"As soon as possible, little one, and remember to be careful" said the final guardian, her brother, Tiliquentin.

Lalaith smiled again and rose from her seat as she took in every last detail of her brother, sat on her right other side of her. Short jet-black hair, aqua fur, and bright sparkling violet eyes. His clothing he wore was of a royal dark forest green robe, mixed and enlined with brown and gold. Standing forward his wings wrapped round her, embracing, before then separating, and she turned to face the rest of the Council. With a final nod from them all, Lalaith disappeared with a puff of smoke.

Meanwhile however, back in Gummadoon, though Cammi was still recovering. He laid in bed, looking completely bored, and miserable clearly obviously wanting to get up and go out. Having nothing to do, but stay in bed and sleep, for his routine day after day, he was just getting fed up with it, and couldn't care less if it was good for him, he wanted out, and now.

For the past few days since Lilli and Isabelle had pulled him out of that dream, all he had been instructed to do was eat, sleep, eat, sleep, then there any wonder why he was so bored.

Glancing round the room, he saw no one around, and decided that now was as good as any time to get out of bed, and take a walk hopefully without anyone noticing. Throwing back the covers, and climbing out of bed, he stretched when a voice spoke, startling him as he turned to the source of the owner who had spoken.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Cammi" said a small cub from the doorway as she made her way towards him, then stood in front of him, she put her hands on her hip and looked at him in the eye "You weren't by any chance thinking of sneaking out of here, did you".

Cammi laughed nervously, and scratched the back of his head and took on a fake hurt look, his eyes then beamed with innocence at Isabelle, pleading not to tell anyone.

"Huh, uh, of course, dear" he replied innocently.

Isabelle couldn't help but surpass a grin at her brother, as she crossed her arms over her chest. He was so much like her, it was untrue, especially one thing similar, they both hated sickbay. Obviously the way her brother was talking to her, he didn't think she knew anything.

Cammi chuckled nervously, but it soon vanished, seeing his sister's expressions change from one of fun and amusement to one of seriousness. Geez, now even cubs knew how to be serious, well adults couldn't complain that cubs weren't learning anything.

"What?" asked Cammi.

"When are you going to tell them" she said softly.

"Tell who, what?" asked Cammi, eyeing his sister suspiciously.

"The Council" she replied. "When are you going to tell them"

"Tell them what?" asked Cammi bewildered.

"The dream, Cammi" she replied sadly.

"What, dream?" he asked.

"The dream you saw, Tarquan's past" she said.

"Huh, now how did you know that?" asked Cammi becoming even more suspicious, but also at the same time was curious to know how his sister knew what he was dreaming about.

Then suddenly angered boiled through his veins and the memories returned, ironed into his head. He grinded his teeth slightly and his eyes became stern, forever looking at Isabelle who looked frightened and winced slightly under his gaze, but she was not about to back down. Calming down slightly, knowing his sister wasn't going to answer while he was angry, he then said

"How do you know?" he asked.

"B...Because whilst I was healing you, I fell asleep by your side and then somehow, me don't know how, I was in your head, seeing and hearing what you saw" said Isabelle, her small form shaking slightly.

"If you were in my mind, then how come I never saw you?" he asked.

"Me don't know" she replied, bowing her head, her chin falling on her chest.

"And what of my dreams?" he asked.

"Tell the Council" Isabelle replied, and then almost regretted saying that fearing she'd pushed her brother too far.

"AND WHAT GOOD WOULD THAT DO?" shouted Cammi, finally losing his temper.

"They can help you" she replied.

"No, they can't, they already helped me enough" he replied.

Now it was Isabelle turn to throw a temper tantrum, anger and fire flaring and burning in her eyes, her expression becoming unreadable and she howled at Cammi.

"Then let me help you, or I'll tell the council myself of you dreams" she replied.

"Don't pose an empty threat, Isabelle" was Cammi reply.

"CAMMI" said Isabelle "if I had to, I'll use me magic on you, cos I know ancient magic too"

At this point Cammi stiffened and froze, he hated when anyone casted spells on him, against his will, but then again, maybe his sister was right, maybe they could help. But he certainly knew that if he refused that she was just going to keep on pestering, till finally he would cave in.

"Cammi" her voice was soft and gentle again "Let them help you"

Cammi let his head fall into his hands, and he spoke "All right, I'll go, but not because you told me to, okay" he said looking back up to meet Isabelle eyes, and saw that the anger had diminished from them.

Isabelle beamed happy at Cammi, before skipping out the room, leaving Cammi alone to his thoughts.

Cammi bowed his head again, this time in frustration.

Could they help him?

Similar thoughts passed through Cammi's mind, closing his eyes in concentration, then opening them again, determination shone once again in his eyes. Yes they should know, especially now when he could try and get all the help he could. Considering Lalaith's words in his dream, he decided then that whatever the reason, the Council should know everything.

Standing up from his bed, he was about to take a step forward when he heard someone behind him cough, gaining his attention. Turning he came face to face with Deed, who quirked an eyebrow at him, and pointed at the bed.

Cammi smiled at this point, and payed no heed to her comments on staying in bed, as step by step he inched closer to the door, until he felt her paw firmly grasp him on his shoulder, and stopping him in his tracks.

"Cammi, you must rest, in order to get your strength back"

"I'm fine" he replied, his paw outstretched ready to grasp the doorknob.

"Yeah sure you are, then why you can't even walk straight on your own"

Cammi slumped his shoulder's in defeat, and leaned against the door, his eyelids drooping slightly, and his hair falling into his face, a sigh escaped his lips.

"Okay, so I'm not fine, but I must see the Council" he whispered.

"The Council" she replied taken slightly by surprise.

"Yes, the council, it is important that I see them, for I have to tell them something which they have not heard before, which could help us, defeat our enemy" replied Cammi in a quiet whisper.

Deed nodded, understanding that this was no joke, and took Cammi by the arm as she guided him towards where a Council was already been held.

"Fine, but I'm taking you there" she quickly added.

Cammi nodded, and whispered words of thanks, as together they walked down several corridors, and turned many corners, until eventually they arrived at the Council doors. Chattering could be heard past the doors, and he turned to face Deed.

"You may go now" he said

She nodded and left, just as Cammi paw touched the Gummadoon symbol upon the brown oak polished doors, tracing it slightly with his finger, his paw then formed into a fist, and he took a deep breath, before knocking.

Immediately he heard the Council fall quiet, and give him entrance. Grasping the doorknob, he turned it slowly, almost too afraid to enter, feeling his heart pounding, his breathing becoming shallow and swift, and the blood pumping in his ears, but he had to do it, they had to know. Opening the door, he came face to the council, all of whom were looking at him.

"I have something to tell you" he said quietly, sitting down in his usual place beside his father.

The Council resumed quiet, all eyes on him, awaiting for him to speak. He sighed, closed his eyes and proceeded to tell his dream.

All the while, nobody in the Council noticed a pair of eyes watching in on them, a smile gracing her lips. Times nowadays a lot of the gummies, she could get to cave in, when she wanted something, and it particularly worked when she showed puppy eyes.

Hours flew by and the sun had settled in the West, the sky now peach emitted with purple streams.

Finally Cammi finished and everyone fell quiet, letting the news sink in.

Nobody said anything; everyone remained silent with only the occasionally brisk wind outside disturbing the silence.

Eyes followed Cammi who rose from his seat and left the room, all eyes looking after him disbelieving.
