Unknown Magic (3)

The familiar blue swirls are around me, gave me a feeling of going back in time. This hadn’t happened in almost forever since I attended Sky High. The blue water colour made me feel I was in oblivion, and could be touchless. Another realm of something beyond my knowledge.

Soon I was spat out head first but somersaulted having the unusual bricks press into my skin and felt the hard rough material go down my back but I stopped as I landed on my feet into a crouch. A smile formed. First time I actually stuck the landing and was probably from the many years of training, how to defend self if I ever fell.

The air was different but oddly familiar as if it was not long ago, I visited Kadea’s fortress. I brought my eyes up and they instantly landed on the now two stone thrones but with no one in them. I would find that odd but something was telling me that I was used to having her pop out of nowhere.

I rose standing straight and made my way to the dais but only stopped before the first step pivoted and my eyes found that lonely earth planet slowly orbiting. Reminding myself time is different here than on that planet.

I looked up and around me and all I could see are the twinkling stars that are holes in the space of time. Light contrasted to dark. I began to wonder why. Why am I here, why does she want to speak with me? It doesn’t make much sense.

My mind staring into the space captivates my thoughts for a moment only to have a hand on shoulder. The softness of having air or some sensation tells me she is behind me. I turned and faced a beautiful goddess with light purple skin, flowing and misting black air that dances around her shoulders. Her eyes are the ones that captivate me into awe like phase. The silver moons eyes that create you into a trance but remind you that you are not above her but are her child.

“Hello, Asema” her voice smooth and sending like music to dance to.

“Hello, Mother” I smiled, as memories come flooding to me, as I remember her telling me who she truly was when we got Junior back and I then married Wolf. Me remembering afterward when I woke up was not possible and she still could not tell me why I only remembered who she was and who I am when I am here.

She moved and allowed her dress to mist against the grey cobble stone I watched her as if she was debating about sitting in her throne.

“How are the battles and family treating you?” she asked, like any mother wanting updates from their child.

I begin to pace while slightly hitting the cobble stone against my feet as I rather not stand still. “Tiring…I want it to end, but with Kieran dead that is no possible sadly. But” I pointed out wagging my finger “The kids are doing great even though staying at Pacific Rim every once and awhile is hard on them, which is why I hope it will not last.

Silence lays between us as if processing the words at a slower rate than possible,

“You know, free will choice is given and sadly the red queen chooses revenge.” She replies.

I knew she is the goddess but sometimes I wanted her to fix the problem.

The air still felt void around me and I knew my time would be limited. I sucked in none existing air and stared back at her in the eyes.

“Even for you grandchildren safety you won’t risk changing or suggesting stuff to the red queen? Or even red population?” I crossed my arms over my chest for comfort not because I held a distance between us.

She looked at me as if she was studying my movements reading into my very soul. She dusted across the cobble stones like mist and sat lightly down onto her throne staring at me.

“I couldn’t even if I wanted to, we are coming to a dark age that must be taught lessons, a future will show true actions and what others possess as special compared to what other think.”

I scrunched my eyes together, “how does that relate to anything?”

She tilted her chin beckoning me to come to her. I did hear some slight echo of the stone against my shoes. I stood at the step that reached up to the dais and brought my gaze up to her. She looked majestic yet I needed to remind myself she is my goddess, but aka my mother. Respect.

“I have no control over the red queen as I cannot physically touch her, there is a dark void that slithers around her ceasing my power. To not even be in her presence.”

I broke my gaze and kept the attention on her misting dress as if it was coloured dried ice slithering around the stone throne, but I kept listening.

“From that it given me a feeling of the future.”

I brought my gaze to her and stared hanging onto her next words. “Something is coming and I don’t know what as my sight and control is being blocked. Something is preventing my power yet. Still have control.”

I swallow and straighten my back, not a chill but a dark coolness rested upon my skin as she spoke these words, “What are you telling me this, how can I possibly stop this…and your words almost mirror the Aer Kingdom.”

She bores her eyes into mine, a move of greatness a way to make me listen to her next words. “These words are to warn you, you may not remember my presence or you tie to me when you wake up. But you will have the feeling, a feeling that something is coming and you have to stop it. Prevent these murders, prevent power into the wrong hands, as right now there something on the horizon, something you cannot defeat.”

Irritation filled me and I uncrossed my arms, “I understand but this is ridiculous, I defeated Kieran, how can I not defeat this new evil?” I asked while balancing on my feet.

Kadea narrowed her eyes staring at me, I swallowed again as to remind myself where my place was.

“Did you truly defeat Kieran?” She didn’t give me time to reply.

“Finding the Right, whatever they are, is task you must keep doing. The right will be the answer and they will be the true pieces of true balance.”

I pondered away almost shaking my self this was too much, I am already fighting wars and they are tiring enough. The murders are refreshing as I can think and not fight but I haven’t gotten results that stopped them. They are just another work load that I need to manage. And not to forget I am a mother of two children and wife to an Alpha. Who already is dealing enough as it is? Now to top off, my mother the goddess is telling me to go on. A quest to find people or objects that will fix everything.

I rake my hands through my hair sighing almost in defeat, it was too much. Times like these I wished I was back in school and only thing I had to worry about was a paper for a ritual or exam to now I had my powers right.

I huffed another exasperated sighed and turned back to Kadea who was only watching as the wheels of weight piled onto me.

“Find the Eight, find the murder, and finished this bloody war…anything else?” I perked annoyed voice at her.

She dd not smile but she studied my face and I could sense worry through her eyes that were only there for a moment.

“Remember you support, your power and breath but most of all follow your senses of me telling you.”

What your sense, what you feel is the last thing I heard before I could think when being sucked into oblivion surrounded by the tunnel of blue
