Author's Note: I've just read the ninth chapter and saw how confusing things were. I also realized how my computer tore out some words. Yeah, Anders had pressed a cloth to her side and stopped the bleeding, that's the deal with the blood stained cloth. Enjoy!
Chapter Eleven
"Realization"
Anders returned to the hut with the knife still in his hand. He opened the wooden door and saw his mother crying. She looked up at the sound of the door open. Anders looked at her. She looked at the knife in his hand. He set the bloody knife down on the table.
Fiera looked at it. She looked at Anders, searching for cuts. When there was none she stood up and hugged him. She was glad he was home.
"But where's Blackfire?"
"She's gone. She left. She's not coming back."
She took a moment to try to understand what he had just said.
"What do you mean she's not coming back? Where did she go? Why do you have your father's knife?"
"I found this. She left. She's not coming back."
Fiera kneeled by her son. "Anders, now I know you're in shock, but I need you to tell me where your sister went."
He looked down at her.
"I don't know. She cut herself mother, she cut herself deep."
She hugged him and they cried together. They knew she wouldn't come back, they just hoped. Fiera for her children, Anders for relief.
Starfire came out.
"Mother, I decided on eating……………………………."
She stared at them. She looked for Blackfire. She wasn't there. She fell down and cried (lots of crying, tell me if I should keep the crying to a minimum).
They sat there and cried as a family.
They prayed to Miyu for relief, but over the next few days, none seemed to come.
Author's Note: Read and Review! Flames are okay.
