Chapter 68: Dim
I fell back onto my knees. My arm was still broken and I had burns on my stomach. I cried long and I felt a hand touch my should as a man said "Breath child. We got your message and cams right away. Remember the gods make everything happen for a reason, it wasn't meant to be young goddess."
I looked and saw the chief and a young girl standing next to him. She had marks on her body, she was the child I saved my first day on the island. The girl hugged me.
"Stop crying it's ok. They didn't feel any pain, they were surrounded by your warm and love aura when they died. They only felt love and peace." The little girl said.
"We will take them and give them a proper funeral back at our island where the village will all pay there respects to them and allow there souls to be free and rest. Now you heal, do not let anger blind you." The chief said.
He reminded me of my fathers. They always wanted me to be safe and reminded me emotions effect your power and that I'm strong and must use my abilities responsibly. The also used to tell me everything happens for a reason you don't always understand it but it's does. I remember I time I was taking to my mom and dad and telling them I want a baby. They told me not until I'm older and have a job and can take care of them, and that I should never bring an innocent child into this world if I'm not able to protect it or care for it properly. They also said the world is dark and cold and I will know when the right time to try to have a child is and if it isn't that things won't always line up, mom said she couldn't have another child because the universe said she couldn't and that uncle lost his daughter because she died since the universe said it was her time. His wife was also killed, and all he had was them but he was angry for a long time and almost lost himself to his sadness but then he came around me more. He never blamed anyone for either of his love ones deaths after that but allowed himself to grow and become stronger, so that way he could love the family he had left.
I felt someone else out there arms around me, the person was strong but my eyes were closed so I couldn't see who it was. I opened my eyes but everything was blurry because of how much I was crying. I couldn't stop though, I knew his energy though. I didn't have the strength to push away and I felt safe in his arms and I felt myself absorbed by his warmth. Instead of even trying to struggle or push away I turned and put my arm around him and carried my face in his chest as I continued to cry.
"They were your children as well." The chief said to him.
"Yes they were." I could feel his sadness but he didn't push me away even though I never told him about them instead he just held me closer. I had been so mean and even after saying everything I said he still protected me, he blocked her beam which is why I was alive and why the babies ever even had a chance to live, but I was to weak to save them or maybe it's like mom used to say the universe didn't want them to live.
The priest walked over and grabbed both of the children from the ground.
"We will be leaving. We won't have a ceremony for two days. We will make all the arrangements and in this time it allows people to get offerings around to send them off with. You many come whenever you wish to say proper goodbyes and help with the ceremony." The chief said
Then him and the child walked away Phoenix followed and left with them to guide them back to the island.
I sat on the ground in Hunters arms crying until I fell asleep. At this point I had no tears left to cry, even if I wanted to. I was mourning my children that I never even got to meant and that never go to cry or laugh or see the world. I knew my family was watching over me though and they they would take care of my children in the afterlife and I would see them again one day. That would be when I got hear them cry and laugh for the first time and when I would get to show them everything that I knew and had learned from this life.
It wasn't a good time to bring them into this world to begin with and I knew that. Not with this viruses going around killing people and with a war going on in our country, we had no clue when we would be called back or if we ever would and we didn't have enough supplies on this island currently. The island was big but it was small for an island and the kids would get bored never being able to go out and explore and live there life's and we would be living here in fear. If we lose the civil war whatever records that are left will be used to hunt all of us down we are sure of that and they might of already started.
