Lost Tempest Queen

Will We Make It??

I turn on my heels with Va Lara in tow sitting her down on the bottom step I start to head up to grab our stuff. She is guarding my back so nobody follows me up in reality. Unfortunately for me we brought the group behind us upset about our early departure. Girl I am sure you don’t feel the need to inconvenience the birthday girl to take the likes of you home. Now do you? The guy named Lance voices his opinion. Sir I am sure you aren’t trying to shame a friend of mine during her unfortunate circumstances. Are you I ask him in the same condescending voice.

Rylie I am not sure what has gotten into you since you went away to college but I really don’t like the disrespect you are giving to our guests. I hear my mom’s voice from the back of the crowd. Mom you are gripping about my disrespect while your partners and you disrespect my guest. I am embarrassed about how everyone except dad has treated my guest. My birthday is ruined and I just want to go back to my dorm and focus on my studies.

I duck into my door grabbing Va Lara’s snack bag and my purse leaving anything we don’t actually need.

When I come out of my door I hand the bags to Va Lara and proceed to tell everyone good by as we walk outside I tell my dad I will be back this week to get the rest of my stuff and my jeep. I tell him I will text him the day and time to expect me but he gives me the slightest shake of the head no and proceeds to say okay bug just let me know when, ya know it’s safe here.

I reach in and hug him telling him I love him and he sticks something into my pocket and at the same time hands me an envelope that says Happy Birthday on it. I look over at mom debating if I should go near her but I need my cover to escape so I go hug her as well and she whispers into my ear I know you know. I give her a very confused look swallowing my panic. She laughs say That I love you silly girl. I just wanted to remind you Rylie. I laugh with her blushing a bit acting embarrassed and tell her I know mom I love you too.

Wow she really just tried me I can’t believe it. I get into the drivers seat of Va Lara’s car and we leave. I am sure that they are tracking her car we gave Dorthy plenty of time to place the tracker on. Va Lara what’s the plan and how messed up are we? Girl are you really sick or ya know how to vomit on command? She laughs at all my questions I can’t eat certain things or they make me sick so I took advantage of it to get us out of there.

I know you have so many questions and I can try and answer some but we need to get to a safe place first. We need to be there by midnight and have a few stops first. Looking at her in awe because she was able to come up with so much and I didn’t have to tell her a thing. We stop for gas and Va Lara gets out to pay and I take the envelope out and open the card. Inside was a get well card? That’s weird opening it I see my dad’s hand writing saying take this bank card it’s his card and isn’t traceable.

I turn the card over but that’s not my dad’s name it says William Lock. It’s a black card with no bank name on it. I take the note out and it reads Dear Bug please listen you are in danger. This is bigger than you could even imagine. I have been putting money into an account for you to run. No matter what NEVER come back here. They will look for you and never stop and if the prophecy is correct you will fix this mess that started over a thousand years ago. Your mother isn’t what you think her real name isn’t Jamie it’s Crystal.

You were taken at birth from your birth parents the real Anderson and Jamie Stillwell. Braiden is not to be trusted because he’s in training to take over for his mother. I was a willing participant for many generations but after you came into my life I knew I needed you to live. I made so many mistakes but this isn’t one of them, you living will not fix what I have done but will help set the world right. Run Bug Run and never look back. Chrystal is the head of Blue Moon Coven she is a Dark Witch out to destroy you and anyone that doesn’t bend to her power.

There is a PO Box in Gibson North Carolina in that box is cash passport and safe contact information. This box is under William Lock like the card. There is another set of identification cards for you under the name Charity Reynolds you will need it or some form of alternate identification to leave the country. They need you to harvest the last of the Royal power for her to be the most powerful creature in the world and with out that she isn’t immortal.

I wish I could tell you everything but there is a journal for each year in a safe in Mexico. The address is Av. Juarez 76, Colonia Centro, Centro. Don’t trust anyone this is a world you were kept from to make catching you easier if you ran. I love you Bug no matter what run and never look back.

Va Lara gets in the car and says we have a tracker and a spy following us. I hand her the card and the letter as I pull out heading to the school. We need a new car and I need some supplies from my room. We definitely gonna need to pretend to stay in her dorm to help avoid eyes. She tells me don’t worry about going to my room at all she bought clothes for us they are in the trunk as well as a rental in front of her dorm.
