Mistress Silver Star Melfina
Chapter 2: Melfina's New Ability
Melfina had finished cleaning up the breakfast dishes. It was the next morning and her left hip was still aching very bad. Very slowly, she walked upstairs to the bathroom. Gene had left an hour ago for a meeting he had with Fred. She ran her self a tub full of hot water. She removed her clothing and looked at the large black and blue bruise on her naked body. She slowly climbed into the tub and let the steam of the hot water relax her. Flashbacks of last night hit her mind many times. She had cold sweats listening to Genes words of violent plans towards the woman that made a fool of him last night, finally him and the gang had left and she had time to her self.
She picked up the ruby jewel that hung from her neck and looked at it. She wondered what was so wonderful about this jewel that everyone wanted. Melfina signed and laid back in the water. All of a sudden the ruby begin to glow as melfina drifted to sleep in the tub.
Melfina saw flashes of last night remembering when she went over the ramp. She saw the jewel begin to glow as she drifted over the hard ground below into the river. She saw the scene of when gene was going to hit her with his pole, when the jewel begin to glow, one appeared in her hand. It was the jewel that helped her. It was the ruby that saved her life that night.
-Melfina...Melfina..-A soft voice from afar said.
Melfina found her self In a strange place. She looked around and seen dead bodies and blood everywhere. Holding one hand over her mouth, she begin to look around hearing her name being called.
-Who...who are you?- Melfina said steeping backwards and tumbled over a dead body. When she sat up and looked at the body next to her she screamed.
-Do not frighten yourself melfina...Im here when ever you need me.
When melfina stood up she saw a tall castle behind her. On the tallest tower stood a woman with the same red ruby around her neck. Melfina couldn't see her face because the wind was blowing very hard. She wore a long white silky dress and had very long silver hair.
-Mistress Silver star Xzillous, I'm coming to save you!- Said a man afar behind melfina.
Melfina turned around and stared at the man. He was tall and had royal blue hair with beautiful blue thin eyes. His hair was at a medium length that stopped at the tip of his ears. He wore a very fancy blue mask that was the color of his hair over his eyes and a prince style outfit. In his right hand he held a very nice sward that had many jewels on the handle. He looked at Melfina with very serious eyes and begin to grip the sward tighter. He than begin to run towards Melfina lifting the sward up in the air. Melfina begin to step backwards seeing flashes of Gene running towards her with the pole. The man than jumped in the air and begin to bring down the large sward in front of Melfina. Melfina's eyes widened in fear and her heart ached in pain.
-NO DON'T HURT ME!Leave me alone!-Melfina screamed in the tub
-Melfina, Melfina! Wake up!- Gene said shaking her out of her dream.
Melfina opened her eyes finding her self in Gene's arms. She quickly wrapped her arms around Gene's neck holding him very tightly with a strong grip.
-G..g..gene-She mumbled beginning to cry
-Shh...its O.K. Mel,-Gene said rubbing her back-Lets get you out of the tub
Melfina's eyes went wide. She looked around at the soap bubbles covering her body and pulled her self back from gene.
-'He cant see my bruises'- She thought to her self.-N..no Gene I can do it my self-She said getting back into the soapy water.
Gene reached over the tub and grabbed her arms pulling her out of the tub and grabbing his robe.
-No Gene don't!- Melfina said trying to break free
Gene pulled her out of the tub and healed her face in his hands
-What's wrong mel? Don't be ashamed, I've seen you naked before.
Melfina looked at Gene with wide eyes. She wondered why he wasn't saying anything about her bruise
-Gene..its just that..
Melfina looked at the bathroom mirror and seen that all of her bruises and scratches had completely vanished. She ran her fingers through her hair in disbelief.
-It's...just that what melfina?
Melfina slipped on the robe and tied it tight before gene could notice the ruby.
-I'm Just so tired- Melfina said leaning into Gene's touch. Gene picked her up and carried her into his room in his arms. He laid her on the bed and wrapped her hair in a towel. He took his hand in hers and ran it across her cheek.
-Melfina, you seem stressed out all morning. I came home and heard you screaming in the tub. Melfina what's wrong?..What were you dreaming about?
Melfina turned her head and looked out the window.
-I...I'm not sure
She than looked at Gene and smiled.
-May I rest here please, Gene?
-Of course- Gene said with a kiss on her forehead.- I'll just watch you
-No!
Gene blinked
-I..I know that you have a lot of work to do Gene. Maybe later we can talk about my dream.
Gene smiled and stood up
-I'll be on the ship if you need me. Get some rest
Melfina smiled as Gene kissed her forehead and left the room. When she heard Gene close the front door behind him, she jumped out of bed and grabbed Gene's phone next to his bed and dialed Anastasia's number.
-Hello...-Anastasia answered
-Anastasia, Can you come over please?
-I'm on my way melfina.
After melfina hung up the phone, she got dressed in her pink dress and boots. When she heard the doorbell ring, she answered it and let Anastasia in. Anastasia ran her hand over Melfina's back as she told Anastasia everything she been through from last night to the last five minuets. She took the ruby from around her neck and handed it to Anastasia. Anastasia looked at the jewel.
-You know melfina...This looks like the jewel that I saw on the news. The one that was stolen last night. The Twilight clan stole it and was planing on giving it to her...insteed..they gave it to you.
-Why do it feel like this jewel knows me?- Melfina said holding her arms togeather-And why was that man trying to kill me?
-I don't know, but I think I have and Idea for us to start looking to find out.
Anastasia and Melfina rode downtown to the museum where the ruby was stolen. The girls had to sneak in through the back of the building because police and ribbons were everywhere in the front. Sence the ruby been stolen, the place had been closed. Melfina took off the necklace from around her neck and placed it in her pocket. They walked downstairs to the jewelry level where the ruby was stolen. The girls walked into a room that had broken glass everywhere. In the middle of the room was a broken glass box with a very fancy black pillow inside.
-Melfina I think this is the room where the ruby was stolen
Melfina nodded and stood next to Anastasia holding the Jewel in the hand. Anastasia looked around the room.
-Melfina what do you remember about the guy that handed you the brown paper bag?
-Not much-Melfina said closing her eyes
-Come on melfina. You got to try
Melfina closed her eyes holding the Jewel. When the jewel begin to glow, Anastasia's eyes widened as she watched it. A few seconds later, Melfina opened her eyes breathing deep with a very sweaty face.
-Are you all right melfina? The Jewel! It was glowing!
-I know-Melfina said- When ever it glows, it feels like it's trying to get inside of me. It shows me so much.
Anastasia blinked and looked at melfina.
-I think the Jewel is trying to communicate with you melfina. We don't know why, or how right now, but for now just listen to what ever its trying to tell you.
Melfina closed her eyes. She heard the same voice she heard earlier as the Jewel begin to glow.
-Don't frighten your self melfina...im here when ever you need me- the voice from afar said
-Show me what happened here- melfina said
Anastasia blinked looking around wondering who melfina was talking to.
As melfina kept her eyes closed she begin to have flashes of the moment the jewel was stolen. Her eyes twitched as she begin to sweat again. Anastasia watched her closely. All of a sudden melfina opened her eyes breathing deeply.
-What did you see?-Anastasia said touching her shoulder.
-The man that stole the Jewel.. he gave it to the man that gave it to me..
-What did the man look like Mel?
-Tall...blond..He had a little gold star pin on his shirt collar
-Star pin...Every member the twilight clan has one. You wasn't wearing one the last night. Another way Gene can tell the difference between you and Lady starlight.
-Anastasia he's here!..I saw him through her..He's in the building!
-What?...She?
-The Jewel, its a woman...we gotta get out of here Anastasia-melfina said pulling her arm
-Where is he?-Anastasia said
-Hey, what are you two girls doing down here?- Said a security guard with a gun in his hand.
-Right there..-Melfina said looking at the security guard.
