Chapter Eight
After a long night dealing with Eda in beast form, the girls head to bed. Falling asleep and waking up at the Crossroads, Danielle looks around for Collector.
"Danielle!" shouted Collector, seeing Danielle and pulling her into a hug shaking.
"Whoa there," said Danielle, wondering what was wrong with Collector and rubbing his back. "Is everything okay?"
"Storms!" shouted Collector, leaning into Danielle more. "I hate thunderstorms!"
"Oh, I see," said Danielle, hugging Collector back. "I don't like them much either but you really can't stop the weather."
"I know but…" said Collector, whining into Danielle's shoulders.
"It's okay," said Danielle, rubbing Collector's cheek. "I'm not going anywhere for a while. Wait… is the tablet…"
"Philip placed it near the window," said Collector, looking towards the tablet, seeing the storm outside it. "He always does that!"
"Why would he do that?" asked Danielle, staring at Collector.
"I don't know but I'm so afraid the lightning will crack the tablet," said Collector, staring at Danielle. "I won't be able to leave this place if that happens. I'll be stuck here forever."
"Don't worry. I won't let that happen," said Danielle, trying to calm Collector before humming a tune her Mamma and Nonna would sing to her on occasions before singing.

Chiudi gli occhi è tempo ormai
dormi amore mio
c'è una cosa che tu non sai
vive nei sogni che porti con te sempre
Sarai la luce più bella, la mia melodia
persa in un sogno sei tu la mia via
sarai la voce che un giorno mi ritroverà
non temere non ti lascerò mai più
Ci rivedremo un bel giorno se il cuore vorrà
avrai l'amore che ho dentro di me
sarai la voce che un giorno mi perdonerà
perchè sento che chiami il mio nome
"That's…" said Collector, liking the song and leaning into Danielle. "That's a pretty song. I like it."
"So do I," said Danielle, pulling Collector closer. "Mamma and Nonna would always sing it for me."
"Aster…" said Collector, leaning his head on Danielle's shoulder.
"Huh…" said Danielle, hearing Collector say the name of a flower.
"My name…" said Collector, nuzzling his chin into Danielle's shoulder. "It's Aster."
"Oh," said Danielle, smiling softly before rubbing the back of Collector's head and back. "It's a lovely name."
"Can… can we stay like this?" asked Aster, not really wanting to let go of Danielle. "I don't really feel like playing right now."
"Of course," said Danielle, seeing that Aster was slowly calming down in her embrace. "Ti terrò al sicuro."
Unbeknownst to the two, Danielle's magic acted on its own. Creating a barrier around the tablet and preventing any boiling rain and lightning from harming the tablet.
