Dreams - The Lost Children

4905 Words
******* WARNING****** this chapter may contain scenes that can be sensitive related to the loss of children, murder. I woke up in a white and silver room sitting on the floor clenching to my chest. I really thought I was dead. The pain in my heart as the hand closed was so strong. I swear it stop working. Clearing my mind, I got up looking at my feet the shackles remain in my ankles but now they are connected to the floor, like they just vanish in the white. I walk around and they extend or go back to the initial state. Suddenly 4 doors appear in either side all made of wood, one brown, one black, one red oak, and one yellow. I look at them and think “Is one of them my path out? How do I choose the correct one?” Since standing in the same spot will get me nowhere, I decide to go to the yellow door firs.  I was putting my hand on the handle when the brown door slices a little bit opening with a cracking sound. I look to it and think “Maybe is not for me to decide” and turn to go to that door. ---------------- Behind the Brown Door----------------- There was a man as well as a woman. She seems to be pregnant. They are happy, their surroundings seam extraordinarily rich. I look closer they seem familiar but at the same time I know I never encounter them. She is in the kitchen preparing a meal, and he is always around her bickering that she is in her last month she should be resting. “If I do not prepare the meal. How is everyone in the Royal House going to eat.? He goes behind her and pecks her neck. “They can ask another omega to accomplish this. You are about to give birth to our pup, at any second.” She gives him a little kiss on the lips. “Nonsense. I can do the cooking, is not very tiring.” “Cooking for a pack of 500 mouths to feed, is exhausting, your mate is right you should be resting, from tomorrow there will be two other omegas doing the cooking.” A big voice booms form the stairs. “Good morning King Alpha Allan.” They say and bowed to the man. “OHHH so they are Omegas to the Royals, no wonder everything around them screams rich.” Brielle seeing the scene. ------Time slip---- “Strange” Steps running in the same environment, a lot of people going back and forth. A Doctor rushing up the stairs. A baby cry everyone stops in place, their eyes turn black, and after a few seconds, everyone runs out of the house. Alpha King Allan comes down the stairs with a baby crying in is arms, in sheets with blood. “Please King. Do not do it. Please. Let it remain with us.” The omega male crying running after him.  “He is a Human Child, a cursed child. You understand what I must do.”  Cries “NOOO my King. He will do no harm. We will go away with it.” He looks at the Omega pleading on the floor.  “I am sorry but a cannot do something like that.” He walked away through the back door with the child to the forest. And soon the sound of the baby was no more.     I gasp for air as my legs betray me and I slide through the door to the ground, my heart starts to beat randomly again. I clench my chest and the chain pulls me back to the center of the room. The door closes. I try to calm down. The words Human Cursed Child and the baby screams echo in my head. “It was just a baby.” ---------------- Behind the Black Door----------------- Has my heart stables itself the Black Door Slides open just a little bit. I got up and around to go to the knob opening it. Thinking “Please do not be another baby, please.” Push My child Push! On a rotten done cabin, I see a woman giving birth, another one is helping her. They seem different, the auras around them. I can sense that the one giving birth is a werewolf I cannot sense the rank, maybe a rouge, and the other helping as a black aura. “I remember from school, black auras are witches.” Then after a few minutes, we hear a baby crying. “There is your child my dear friend.” The witch putting the child on top of the woman for her to see. “Anna, am I to tired? Why can’t I smell her?” The witch eyes go sad. “I am sorry my friend, your child is human.” The woman tries to raise her voice, but it comes out as a whimper. “Human? How can it possibly be??? He is a werewolf.” The witch got up looking at the woman. “You have a cursed child.” The woman starts to tremble. “NOO, what do I do? I cannot raise a Human Child. I was put out of the palace the moment he found out I was pregnant. I cannot raise a Human Child. I cannot protect her.” The witch got near. her face was in tears. “My Dearest friend. I can take care of that for you.” The woman voice was almost a faint whisper. “Anna. Would you take her with you? Closing her eyes “Yes, I will.” And the witch pick the child up crying while looking at her friends numb body. ---------------------- Time Slip------------------ “No not another baby. Do not let her take her noooooooooooooooooo.” Brielle Crying Sound of a door opening. “Milady, there is someone here to see you.” ‘Whispers’ “Let her in. I already know the reason she is here.” The doors open. “Anna, haven't seen you for a long time, cousin.” She walks past the door with a baby sleeping in her hands. “Lutrice, can you lift the curse of this child? I want to raise her. She is one from my dear friend that passed way giving birth to her.” Lutrice looking at the baby. “OHHHH she is one of those” Big Laugher “I know precisely who she is. The child of that King Alpha and his mistress. This werewolf is even worse than the ones than can before him. He as a mate but sleeps around. Once he finds out one of is mistresses is pregnant, he kicks her of the palace.” Anna looks at Lutrice with hope. “Lutrice, if you know can you help me.” She looks at her.  “Off course my cousin. Everything for family.” A small grin in her lips. Lucile walks to Anna and picks the child up, the child senses, and starts crying. “Sush child. It will be over fast I promise.” Her wicked smile appearing in her face. “Lucile?!” Anna looks confused at her cousin. “Guards take Anna out. I no longer need her.” ‘Whispers’ “Yes Milady” Anna start to scream, while the lack fog goes around her. “LUTRICE. NO. What do you intend to do with her?” The baby continues crying in her arms.  “Nothing you would like to know, my dearest cousin. And thank you for bringing her to me.” Anna was now crying. “LUTRICE we are family. You told me that you will help.” Her eyes got darker. “Like my mother help me, when she put that spell on me to bound me so that I can be rejected by my mate???? NO. I do not have a family. You are not my family. And this baby as to die, so the curse can continue to another generation” Anna last hope. “LUTRICE”, “SUSH. Take her away now, and make sure she never speaks again.” ‘Whispers’ “Yes Milady” The black smoke pushes Anna. “LUTRICE NOOOO. LUTRICEEEEeeeeee.” Sounds of being dragged away. “Yes, my little bird. Your death will put more generations without a child of their mated one. They still must learn. That the curse is not that straightforward. You see: “If anyone kills you, the couple that gave birth to you, cannot have children anymore. The present Alpha King will become sterile once I kill you, since he is your father.  And: “Every time a cursed child is born, the Alpha King of the realm she is in, will lose his mate to a mysterious disease. The Queen today, will not be tomorrow.” She looks in the baby eyes. “You see, little bird. Is a win win position to me. Because you will eventually dye, no cursed child should be able to live, and you being born, is also already a curse to them.” “Time to leave this world little bird, so that another one can come to life, to curse again.” Chants and spells are heard everywhere, whispers, cries, and silence. A small black tree erupts in the rock soil. ---- Flashing in my eyes are all the pups I train with, while they turn to me and smile, there is blood all over them. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO” Clenching her chest, she falls to the ground and the current drags her around to the middle again. This time she also ears a chant, that calms her down, and she falls asleep. ---------------- Behind the Red Door----------------- I wake up to the cracking sound of the Red Door Opening. “No, no more, I do not want to see more.” The door only continued opening until it was full open for me to see. I tried to turn away, every time it would come up in front of me again, open. I gave up and sat brokenly on the floor, looking at the insides of the door. I saw trees, a lot of trees, the sound of birds, rabbits, insects, the sound of the forest, that calmed me a bit, I always loved the forest. I heard footsteps, fast footsteps, running in the forest, twig breaking. The sound of a heart beating fast. “How could I hear a heart?” “Come out, come out, whenever you are. You know we will catch you sooner or later.” I see a small boy around 6 years old, running. The clothes are ripped from the branches, behind him a pack of werewolves running in Human form. I can see their Yellow auras, but some of them are not werewolves, they have a red aura. “They are vampires?!” The boy runs until the edge of the forest. “S**T, he is going to pass the border, catch him.” One of the werewolves cursed.  The red auras fly in the sky and stop in front of the boy, just before the border. “Hello Little Boy, your parents should have thought you better, than to try to outrun, vampires and wolfs.” The pack patrol on the other side, alts at the border, and stay in their human form, seeing what is happening. “You there, what are you doing with the boy?” The Vampire spats, “None of your business Mutt.” The patrol growls at them realizing they are vampires.  “He is Human if you kill him you will have to respond to the council.”  The wolfs, stand back, but the vampires just look at them. “We do not follow your stupid rules Mutt.” Vampire Hisses “We follow the Milady rules, and she wants the Human dead.” In the border few wolves appear, one of them a Big Black one, with an aura of authority. “Is that what an Alpha looks like, their aura is massive” Brielle think looking at the images. They shift, and the Alpha Speaks “You have no authority in either land.” Another person stands beside him “I am Elder Christian. I have mind connected your pack Elder, and he is not please knowing you are after a Human.”  One of the Wolf spats “It is a Cursed Human. We can kill those.” The Vampire hisses at the wolf that spoke.  “I have an agreement with your pack Alpha, you all will back up, or you will be responsible for the war between our packs.” Alpha Voice. The wolfs, appear to get a mind link and we sense them, curling back, and walking away. “We do not have to follow any Alpha Orders.” Vampire tells holding the boy by the neck. He cries in the hands of the vampire, still trying to break free. “Attack the vampires, we have permission.” Alpha Orders. But at the same time, they shift, the vampire bites the boy neck, and rips part of the neck with it. Then a wolf pounces him, and rips is head off. “I must deal with their Alpha later if he lets vampires going around his land freely.” The Vampires are outnumbered and are deal with amazingly fast. “Yes, and I must talk to the Elder of the pack. How could he have missed a cursed child in the pack? Alpha turns to the warriors. “Take the body of the boy to the temple. You are going to need his body to try to find out a way to find them before they make the next time.” The Elder bowed to him. “Yes, I will. But it will not take long. Then we will make the proper funeral.” ----- I sit in the center of the room, completely numb. “No more.” I whisper, my mouth getting dry. I will not be able to stand crying more, the tears keep on falling, the screams come out as words. “NO MOREEEEEE, NO MOREEEEE.” “PLEASE NO MORE.” I hear the chant, and fall asleep again. ---------------- Behind the Yellow Door----------------- I wake up again, the sound creaking from the Yellow door, this door seems different. The other was plain wood, this one as in carvings made of “gold” maybe, there is a mark at the center of the door. K   Q The Full Moon Rises in the Sky, the Moon Goddess temple situated in the border of the Royal Family realm, in the well know Warrior’s Pack – The Shining Light, that protect the borders of the Royal family. Having the pack adjusted along the border so they are the Walls of the realm. Two shadows try to escape the Moon Light, that seems to be very precise in this night. Searching for somebody or something, they arrive at the back entrance of the temple, that leads directly to the Chamber of The Elder in charge of the temple. They hope the Elder in Charge this Month can help them. They knock on the door, the Moon Light only above them a few centimeters irradiating the letters above the door where a sign is put up with the Elder of the Month: Elder Silvanie. “Who is it, at this hour of the Night??” No answer…. Opening the door, she looks at booth shadows, in that precise moment the Moon Light captures the face of the man. “My King? What is happening?” He holds another person that has the head down. “Can we come in Silvanie?” Opening the door, she let them in, she looks all around and do not see a soul. Looking up and the moon was looking at her. “Moon Goddess?” Closing the door, she walks inside, the King was putting the other person on the sofa gently, and then the hood came down. “My Queen? What is happening? Why are you both here, and hiding, are we being attacked? The Queen raises her head. “No Silvanie, we only need your protection.” She shows her very expectant belly. Everyone new that the Queen was expecting. “It is time already? But why not go to the Pack doctor?” She thought it was strange for the King to risk is pregnant Mate in the middle of the night. “We cannot risk they discover.” Her face was confused. “Finding out?” Everyone knows that the Queen is expecting. “Yes. The Royal Witch told us to come to you.” She could not understand. “Do you know why?” They look at each other, currents of conversation flowing between them. “We were in the impression that you already knew what it was.” How could she know. “No. I do not have a clue.” Queen takes a breath. “I am caring a cursed child.” Her eyes widen at that.  “What? How could you know that?”  King talks. “The Elder Royal Witch told us, last month when we came to the temple praying to the Moon Goddess.” He said the words she used. “The Moon Goddess cannot help you. You are caring the cursed child.” , “We asked how she could know that.”, “You both reek of my daughter spell.”, “She was telling us if we want our baby to live, we should come to the temple on the Full Moon, and we would find help here.” She now could understand. She had heard of the cursed children. “I understand. It is for the best if your children are indeed the cursed child. This pack was trained by warriors from different packs that the Moon Goddess send. The baby will be protected here.” The Queen starts to crunch and felling the pain. “Is time.” Preparing the guest bed, it was clean today because she had a feeling someone could need it. Never in her dreams will be helping giving birth to a child here. The King picks the Queen up and puts her on the bed. Silvanie go get towels, and warm water. When she came back, the Queen is already with contractions close to one another. Never she saw someone get contractions on that count, so fast. “I will need your help my King.” Passing a large wood “She will need to bite on that when the pain grows, it will help her. And your wolf needs to soothe her wolf, praise her, teel her how much you love her, make her feel safe in your arms.” He nods. “I will.”  The pain of giving birth lasts for a few hours, is not an easy delivery, something seems off. Silvanie help delivered all sorts of babies, and there was something off about this one. “Almost there, I got the head, so another big push. Yes, I can see the face, one more you can do it.” After another hour of pushing, the baby is born. Is a human child just like the witch predicted. The King and Queen pick the child and Silvanie starts preparing to cut the umbilical cord. As soon as I cut the cord, the Queen starts screaming in pain. “What is happening, why is she screaming.” Blood flowing through her thighs. “The blood is not stopping.” Putting more towels under her, they try to stop the bleeding. “Do something. What is happening to her? Her wolf is getting weaker.” But the blood is too much, even for her wolf to heal. “I-I-I have no idea what to do more.” His eyes turn dark. “It is the child fault? She is cursed and killing my mate.” His voice changes. “King I cannot say that for sure.” He turns to me. “So, what can you say? WHY IS SHE DYING????” “Because the baby is born into this world.” Another voice comes from the door of the room. They look to the person that spoke. “How??? WHY???” Her power eradiated from her words, like a command to never be contradicted. “Is part of the curse, the moment the child is born the mother dies shutting down from some disease.” He stands up and tried to pick the child up. “I need to kill the child.” Silvanie picks the child up fast. “Killing will make things even worse. If you kill her, you will never be able to have kids again. Do you really thing that is what your mate will like for you?” He breaks and starts to cry. “I cannot live without her.” The Moon Goddess voice tried to calm him down. “You can, and you will. I will help the bloodline prevail.” He then turned to her pleading. “Why can’t you stop this?” Her eyes turned sad. “The spell is more ancient than I am. We still have not found the book where it has been written.” He got up and faced her. “NO. You must do something you are the Moon Goddess. We pray to you. You are the one that made us live, you can make her alive again.” His voice full of despair. “I cannot. But I can make her reborn. But not to be your Queen again.” I see him knelling. “I-I cannot breathe any longer.” She looks down on him. “You will live. And I will find a way to bring her back to you.” “Silvanie, take the baby to Elder Christian. He will help you.” She just nods and started going to the door. “I lost my mate now you are taking away my child.” She froze before going out.  “We both know if he stays near you, you will kill him. You need to heal, and in time, you will find your second chance.” He gets up in rage. “I DON’T NEED A SECOND CHANCE. I HAVE A MATE.” The Moon Goddess take one step near him. “YOU WILL ACEPT YOUR SECOND CHANCE, OR YOUR MATE WILL NEVER BE REBORN.” He looks at Silvanie, then at her. “YOU CANNOT TREATH ME LIKE THAT.” Moon goddess points at him. “YES, I CAN. NOW GO TO THE CASTLE. THE TEMPLE SHALL BE DESTROYED BY ME AND BUILT ON ANOTHER LAND. YOU AND YOUR DESCENDENTS, WILL NEVER KNOW WHERE IT WILL BE. ONLY THE ONES THAT NEED THE TEMPLE WILL BE ABLE TO FIND IT. DON’T TRY TO ASK THE ELDERS, THEY WILL NOT KNOW ALSO.” He then collapses near the bed. “How can I leave her.” Loud sobs. Moon Goodess turns. “Elder Silvanie, leave now. I will take care of the rest.” I bow to her. “Yes, Moon Goddess” I picked up a blanket to cover the child and run out to the back of the temple. Two warriors were already waiting for me, the Moon Goddess prepared everything. I look behind me, only to see the king crying still holding his mate, covered in blood. “Elder Silvanie, the carriage is awaiting.We will take you to Elder Christian.” I look at the warriors. “Thank You.” We took off under the Moon Light. ---------------------- Time Slip------------------ “Do not die, please do not die.” Brielle crying and sobbing. A cute girlly voice. “Hm Elder Christian, where are we going.” A male voice “You need to do your training with Elder Silvanie and the Moon Goddess Warriors.” I see a girl and a man walking on the paths in the forest. “But I do not want to fight.”  A few other looking like guards walking with them. “Is for your protection there are a lot of bad people trying to hurt you.” She looks up at him. “But I am only ten, I do not want to fight.” He sighs “I know my child, but you also know why you need to defend yourself.” She looks at the ground.  “Because of the bad witch.” A voice ecoes in the forest. “What kind of example are you giving to a little girl calling other bad witches? I am hurt by that.” Elder Christian looks back. “LUTRICE!!” He looks everywhere for her.  “NOW, why are you running away with my child.” He sniffs the air. “Where are you Lutrice? Show yourself.” All the other are sniffing the air also. “That you would like.”, ‘Whispers’ “Milady”, “Bring me the child and kill whoever comes in your way.” Elder Christian Growls “WARRIORS” In a few seconds they are encircled by the pack warriors, and by something else, seems to be ashes in the form of shadows. “Tell me, Christian. How are your warriors going to fight something they cannot see?” Laughter “Kill them and bring me the girl.” The ashes seem to move on to the warriors making them choke, and collapse to the ground. One warrior takes the girl, the other runs behind the Elder shooting arrow of light, that at the touch of the dust seem to ignite and the shadow starts burning and screaming. “Their vulnerability is the light.” They run to a clearing, but the sun was not up yet.  “Take the girl to the temple.” He tells the warrior that is running in front. He changes to a big brown wolf, the girl clinging to him, and dashes away. I stop with the archer of light and start chanting to the Moon Goddess Light. Suddenly when the shadows where too many, the clearing is transformed into a bright light, like if the forest responded to my chanting, and they screamed and ignited in flames. I turn around to start running to the place the girl and the warrior left “WATCH OUT.” Elder did not see it coming, a black orb light coming in his direction. The archer placed in front of him, but the orb was so strong. They both went filling to the sky and hit a tree. The Elder fainted and when he woke up, the forest was silent. He looks around and sees half the body of the archer near him, and the other half far away. His eyes changes to a darker color mind linking the temple to see if the child was there, but there was no response, maybe he was too weak. Tried standing, but his legs. Something was off with his legs. Looking at them broken, torn to the side, bones showing. He needs to shift, his wolf was also not in a good condition, but he said he was strong enough to help, but they had to stay still for two days, and in those days he had no response from anyone. After two days the wolf had recovered, although it was still weak. He started walking. Smelling ash and smoke when he was coming near the end of the forest. He knew that there was a small town. A hunter town, they have helped them many times, but when he got out of the forest, his eyes widen at the terror. The once beautiful town was now, ruins, blood, ashes flying everywhere, corpses on the streets. The few survivors were trying to pick up to do a proper funeral, but they were only body parts, seems something tore them apart. The wolf was tired. He shifts back to human form, and at that time someone saw and call for help. The last thing he saw was they running to him and fainted. He awakes and was in a bed, in somebody else bedroom. The wolf was strong again, and the bones where back in place. A door opens and he sees Elder Silvaine. Tried to speak, but his mouth was dry. She came closer and gave a glass of warm water. Her eyes were on me, but they had a sad expression. “The child?” She nodded her head no. “I arrived here one day before you, to help clean. They say a wolf along with a child, walked into town, followed by shadows. They tried to help, because some hunters knew who the child was, but they were outnumbered when a rival group of vampires joined forces with the shadows. They burn the town, drunk from the lifeless people, and killed the wolf. We do not know what happened to the child.” He felt devastated. “They got her.” She just nods “I heard the bells of the Temple this morning.” That means. “The wolf died, that means the girl died.” Both went silent for a while. “We cannot afford to lose another child. The Royal Blood is getting weaker. The time for the next generation to appear is getting a large gap, there will be one day, when the Royal will die before the heir comes. Then the Royals will perish.” They looked exhausted just by thinking about it. “The Moon Goddess gave me this.” An hourglass with silver sand. “She said, when the sand starts flowing that means a cursed child is about to come to this world. We must find her before she arrives. But she never told us how.” ----- The door closes on its own. I am sitting again on the center of the room, looking at it. “She died, again she died. Am I going to died also??? She said I was a cursed child??? Am I dead already??? So, where am I????”  My heart started hurting again, the room started to look darker and darker and then I saw her hand. “Come here child. let me kill you and bring you out of your misery.” I started crawling back. “Noooo. Do not touch me.” She laughs.  “I do not need to touch.” The hand started closing. I felt my heart running fast, extremely fast. “But I do not want to die. I’m not like those children. I want to live.” I look at my feet and the chains where still. I remember every time I was about to go, they would pull me back, so why they are not doing so. I cling to them and started pushing, my breath was difficult. I pulled and pulled and suddenly they began to glow and pushed me right through the floor. “That little human is running away from me in my dreams.” HISSING ‘Whispers’ “Milady.” “Have you found her? I need to kill her in the real world.” She was angry. ‘Whispers’ “No Milady” She starts passing around.  “What is taking you so long? Everyone knows about the curse. She is already 16, that means she had to live somewhere. Send the vampires to raid the packs. And alert the Black Witches in the Royal Realm, tell them their Queen told them to be alert at any Elder coming inside. If they fail and I found out, they will die.”, ‘Whispers’ “Yes Milady.” “I will catch you little rabbit. I always catch them.”
