This is normal speech
This is a vision
This is a thought
This is raven speech
As for the songs on last chapter:
They were:
Evanescence- Taking Over me
Red Jumpsuit Apparatus- Face Down
Chapter 3: The Awakening
Anne woke with a fright. She sat with a shiver as the dream passed through her.
' Daylight broke into his dream and the boy awoke with his aunt screaming at him to cook breakfast. After that he was to tend to the garden, mow the lawn, clean the gutters, clean the house, scrub the kitchen floors (though they were sparkling), clean his cupboard, clean his cousin's room, vacuum the house and prune the rose bushes. He was to finish these before his uncle returned at 5:30. His aunt had been oh so kind to get him up at noon. Now he had to hurry, but despite his efforts, his uncle arrived with his chores only half done. The boy coward on the living room floor, his massive uncle over him, the belt hovering over the man's head before it was brought down with a force that when it hit, a sickening sound echoed in the room as the boy cried out as each blow fell..'
She was hyperventilating again, unable to break from the vision. Her chest tightened as Sorcha flew down, concern running through her.
" Mistress? Mistress! Please speak to me! What's wrong? Anne!" Sorcha's voice yelled into Anne's mind.
" Sorcha…Finbar, mother, father….please…you must…get them…can't breath…" Anne said weakly to Sorcha as the raven flew off out of the room as Anne sat gasping against the sharp pains that surround her.
It wasn't long before Meagan rushed into the room, followed closely by Finbar. Meagan enveloped Anne in her arms, as did Finbar. But the efforts were in vain, for the vision Anne was enduring would not let go. It was threatening to consume her, even with the moon crown Anne now wore. Over and over, she watched, as her brother was beat by her uncle.
Tucker was there, as if by magic, for none heard him, but even he was not able to break the vision. But now, she was surround in a song that everyone could hear.
"I
let myself fall into a lie
I let my walls come down
I let
myself smile and feel alive
I let my walls come down
No matter
how i try i don't know why
You push so far away
You wrapped
your hands tight around my heart
And squeezed it full of pain
With this knife i'll cut out the
part of me
The part that cares for you
With this knife i'll
cut out the heart of me
The heart that cares for you
I
can't believe the way you took me down
I never saw the pain
Coming
in a million broken miles
Like poison for my veins
With this knife i'll cut out the
part of me
The part that cares for you
With this knife i'll
cut out the heart of me
The heart that cares for you
The hate and the fear
The
nightmares that wake me up
In tears
The nightmares and (the
hate)..."
The door burst open as a figure in gray swooped into the room and the three stood back. For this being held power over all in the village, except Anne. She seemed to be the only one who could defy the woman.
" Liadan? What are you doing here? I thought you left England." Lady Rache asked.
The Lady Liadan made no sound just moved towards the weeping child.
" Anne. Child, look at me." Liadan commanded. Anne looked over with black eyes, red tears streaming down her face.
" Good. Now, push it out. Bring yourself out of that darkness." She commanded again.
Anne's eyes drastically changed from black to lavender and now a different song burst from her.
"I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock
screaming
Monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the
wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops
As they're falling
tell a story
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds
of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple
sky fly over me
Don't say i'm out of touch
With this
rampant chaos- your reality
I know well what lies beyond my
sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape
In
my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie
inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over
me
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease
for the fear of silent nights
Oh how I long for the deep sleep
dreaming
The goddess of imaginary light
In my field of
paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself
for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me"
When the song ended, Anne's head dropped and now all you could see was a blanket of black and red hair. Liadan quickly moved towards the child, but was stopped as Anne looked up and saw Liadan standing there. The eyes were back to the natural Auburn-Ebony color.
" Aunt Liadan?" Came the child's voice, barley a whisper.
" Yes, Little Anne. I'm here." She opened her arms and the girl ran from the bed and into the open arms, which quickly closed around her. She wept in the older woman's dress.
" We must discuss her now, Meagan. Her elf gifts are now in full force and she has no control. I know she has been practicing, but it seems that the training has not been enough." Liadan said as soon as Anne had calmed down and now stood by Finbar, whose arm was around her shoulder.
" I realized that yesterday, Lady Liadan." Finbar said. " When she had a vision at the great oak. It took all of mom's will power to calm her."
" The fates are playing with me. They deem me worthy and yet I am not." Anne spoke in a whisper, but still everyone heard.
" You are worthy little one. You just need some more control." Meagan said, moving towards the door. "Come little owl. Your birthday breakfast awaits."
The meal was big. But not as big as the birthday feast will be, for then the whole clan would be there and although she didn't always want them, a pile of gifts for the young seer.
After breakfast, Anne moved to leave the camp, but was detected by her father and was quickly stopped.
" Now where are you going, my little seeing owl?" He asked, an arm going around her shoulder.
" To the field. I need a place that isn't celebrating this day so I can think.." She responded, sounding like she wasn't there at all.
" Don't wander farther then that, okay?" He kissed her head and let go on.
She made it to the middle and laid down by the creak and let her mind wander as once again, her magic enveloped her in song, so load that those even in the village heard.
"I still remember the world
From the eyes of a
child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know
now
Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real
world
Oh I... I want to go back to
Believing in everything and
knowing nothing at all
I still remember the sun
Always warm
on my back
Somehow it seems colder now
Where has my heart
gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh I... I want to go
back to
Believing in everything
Iesu, Rex admirabilis
Et triumphator
nobilis,
Dulcedo ineffabilis,
Totus desiderabilis.
Where
has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh I... I
want to go back to
Believing in everything
Away
Where
has my heart gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh I... I
want to go back to
Believing in everything
I still remember."
Finbar stood up from the well and ran to his sister's side. She had called him and now he felt he must always obey. He stopped about 30 feet from her and stood there.
' I see it. She's Liadan's heir. She's gaining her own power plus Liadan's. But, what about Hogwarts? Will she go? Or will she ignore the one who haunts her dreams?' He sat down by her and she leaned into him.
" Finbar, I believe my future is at Hogwarts. I have to go. I feel as if I belong there. Does that make sense?" Anne asked, looking over the field.
" Yah, it does owl. Come, your party awaits." He stood with her and they walked home, meanwhile a chill over took over Anne and she saw a shadow over take the valley for the briefest of minutes but it was there, hiding in the wings, waiting to leap.
(( 2 Years later))
Anne now stood with Liadan's necklace and rings with on her person. The woman who had become her mentor had died last week and only a year before, had named Anne as her heir. Now Anne's eyes were filled with tears as her mentor was buried next to the great oak. After the funeral, Anne was standing there alone, tracing the stone that now covered the great elf leader. A song broke the silence as Anne sang for the first time in a week.
"Lay down
your sweet and weary head
Night is falling,
you have come to journey's end.
Sleep
now,
and dream of the ones who came before.
They are calling
from across the distant shore.
Why do you weep?
What
are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
all of your
fears will pass away,
safe in my arms
you're only
sleeping.
What can you see
on the horizon?
Why do
the white gulls call?
Across the sea
a pale moon rises --
The
ships have come to carry you home.
Dawn will turn
to
silver glass
A light on the water
All souls pass.
Hope
fades
into the world of night
through shadows falling
out
of memory and time.
Don't say,
"We have come now to the
end."
White shores are calling
you and I will meet again.
And you'll be here in my arms
Just sleeping.
What
can you see
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls
call?
Across the sea
a pale moon rises --
The ships have
come to carry you home.
And all will turn
to silver
glass
A light on the water
Grey ships pass
Into the west."
She crumpled to the ground, crying the tears that had been held in for the last week .
She sat there staring at the letter before that bore the mark of the school that held her brother….and her father.
" Mistress, when you go, will I come?" Sorcha was now on Anne's shoulder.
" Of course, why wouldn't I bring you? You're my familiar and also my friend. I would not leave without taking you." Anne said, gently petting the animal's neck.
Her bags were packed, her things bought and it was a day before September 1st, and until June, Lady Rache would lead the clan .
" Hogwarts. You hold my other family, both of which know nothing of me. By the gods, may my father not reject me."
(( haha my first cliffy! Ok not that much. But what do you think? I love this story))
