Chapter 4: Surprises

Sonia and Petra needed to eat quickly since they were preparing to go play with their friends.

My eyes began to well up with tears. I couldn't believe I'd awoken to the realities of my life yet again.

I dashed over to the kitchen to prepare them some pancakes and some sizzling hot tea, just the way they loved it.

While I was putting the dough on the pan, I suddenly remembered the instructions Grandpa Ralph had given me before he left.

I dashed into my room and found the scroll as quickly as I could.

It was exactly where Grandpa Ralph had predicted.

I tried to open the scroll, but I was interrupted by the sound of approaching footsteps.

It was Sonia, my stepsister. She was in the tunnel next to mine.

Quickly, I put the scroll on the chair near my bed and dashed outside to meet her, not realizing that my stepfamily had banded together against me.

"Where have you been, moron? You really ruined the pancake!" Sonia dragged me back into the kitchen, where my stepmother and stepsister, Petra, were both there.

"She never gets anything right!" Brianna, my stepmother, yelled as she held a burnt pancake in her hands.

I was certain that I had turned down the heat on the cooker before leaving. Someone had activated it.

"This is your lunch for today," my step-sister shouted, hurling the burnt food at me.

To be honest, I was relieved.

I took the pancake and placed it in a bowl next to me.

I started to wonder about my other stepsister, Sonia. We had certainly met at the door to my room, and she had brought me to the kitchen, but where did she go after that?

I decided not to waste any more time and made another batch of pancake batter.

Speaking of the devil, Sonia raced out of the room with the scroll I had stored in my room.

I was completely taken aback. How did she discover it?

"Mother, I discovered this in Tanya's room," Sonia said to my stepmother.

My stepmother grabbed the scroll from her and opened it. It was a brand-new, huge sheet of paper.

"This is a map! So you're going to flee?" my stepmother, Brianna asked as she reached for the matchbox on the kitchen counter. She was preparing to set fire to the map.

"That is very important. Please, Ma. I plead with you. Do not set it on fire," I pleaded.

My stepmother ignored my appeal and slammed the match stick against its box, igniting the map.

My stepsisters, who were standing next to her, encouraged her. I could see the glee in their faces as they mocked me and laughed at me.

I sobbed and dashed to the backyard.

My stepfamily was determined to destroy me. Although I had no idea what the map's purpose would be, I knew it was essential and tied to my freedom. I gasp in agony.

My stepmother did nothing except wreck everything I did. I was sorry for leaving the scroll in my room carelessly.

When I looked up to my left, I noticed Grandpa Ralph standing, shaking his head, and smiling.

"What are you doing here, Grandpa Ralph?" I asked obstinately.

"This was always something I expected to happen. Fortunately, I was well-prepared," Grandpa Ralph gloated.

I couldn't understand what he was saying. Why was he so happy? Does he find it amusing to see me in pain? Was this why he watched me but ignored my experiences all these while?

I had misplaced what he had given me and felt he should be angry with me instead of greeting me with a grin.

Grandpa Ralph approached me, tapped my shoulders, and said, "The actual map is here in my hand, I anticipated that they would try something amusing, so I hid a fake map beneath your bed. This is the genuine article." Grandpa Ralph said this while holding the original map in his palm.

I took it and stared at it. It was, indeed, the authentic map. It appeared to be antique, as if it had been passed down through generations from one generation to the next.

"But, Grandpa Ralph, what is the map for? Where does it lead?" I asked, but before I could finish my last word, he disappeared.

My stepmother summoned me from the kitchen because she noticed I had spent a lot of time outside.

"Tanya! Come finish the dinner you began so my daughters may eat and go out to meet their friends, Evil girl!" She stated.

My mother would not let me out of her sight for even a second. I had to be at her daughters' beck and call.

As I entered the home, I quickly folded the new map and tucked it inside my skirt.

I entered the house. My stepmother instructed me to fry the entire batter quickly because my stepsisters were late for a game with their pals.

My step-sisters returned from their normal play later in the evening. I could hear them laughing and chatting.

I chose to listen in on their conversation because I was curious what they were talking about.

They were apparently discussing about me and laughing at the assumption that I was planning to flee.

"I can't believe that stupid girl wants to flee. Does she believe she is so intelligent? She will never be able to flee. She will be our servant for the rest of her life!"

I burst into tears and dashed to my room.

Deep down, I couldn't help but wonder why Grandpa Ralph gave me the map as I prepared their dinners. I started imagining where the map might take me, hoping it wasn't somewhere worse than this.

It was starting to get dark.

I had just finished all of the housework that my stepmother had assigned to me. My stepsisters had gone out with their friends, while my stepmother, Brianna, was asleep in her bed. It was the ideal time to start tracing the map.

Chapter 5: A new dawn

I changed my t-shirt quickly because it was wet from all the laundry I had to do that day. I had a strong odor of spices, but I couldn't take a bath because there wasn't enough time. My stepmother could need me at any time, and it would be a bad situation if I was not available. After changing my shirt, I crept out of the house quietly.

I decided to go for it, paying close attention to every detail on the chart Grandpa Ralph had given me.

The chart led me out of the house, through the Blue Moon Pack's streets, and into the dense forest.

Everything had gone black and quiet. The animals in the forest had begun to make terrifying noises. I considered returning home. It was preferable to be with my stepmother and alive than to continue on the voyage and perish.

Despite my reservations, I persisted. The deeper I went into the forest, the denser it became and the quieter it became.

I was exhausted a few minutes after contemplating quitting. I came to a halt to take some water from a creek in the woods.

Suddenly, i heard a cricking sound from the distance, more like a rustling.

I could sense someone was maybe watching me or probably was it some sound that seem unclear?, some thing wasn't just right.

So I laid on the ground.

After a while, i decided to crawl closer to where the sound was coming from.

Behold damien! Sonia's Boyfriend. He was literally naked, and well mounted on His little sister tyfa!.

I wouldn't have believed if someone had told me that, i always thought Damien was one of the coolest guys around.

They were both covered with sweat and stark naked.

I watched Him steadily as He slowly run His hands round her Boobs and squeezed them Hard like He was about to aim a punch at somebody.

He seem to be putting His hardness into her mouth, And despite the fact that she seem to be gasping real hard, she wouldn't let go of his pen*s.

For a while i was so worried about her, "Stupid fellows!" I muttered to myself.

But it sure seem much pleasurable to them both. I still wonder what this is for or whatever, i just feel completely disgusted at the sight.

I had to quitely crawl off immediately tyfa's eyes and mine met. I wasn't sure if she saw me though. Why must I always be the one seeing alot of bad things? i wondered.

A smirky smile escaped my lips, I sat for a while and wondered what Sonia would do when she finds out.

But she deserved it, for all the evil she had done to me. At least!.

I paused for a while and made myself a promise never to tell anyone about it. Even if I did tell, no one would believe me.

I finally arrived at the location indicated by the map not long after I had a drink. It looked like a cave. I went inside.

I came upon a 'x' sign carved on the sand and a shovel right alongside it after a few minutes of being on this awful road.

I took up the shovel and began digging in the dirt. Luckily, I didn't have to dig too deep since I discovered a treasure trove just on the surface of the soil

I cracked it open with the key that was dangling in front of the lock, curious as to what was within.

To my great amazement, I discovered a large and circular sparkling object. I had no idea what to do with it. I began to wonder whether or not the old man who had appeared to me was a hoax. Could he really be my grandfather?

If he genuinely was my grandfather, he would not have sent me here for anything other than a dead ball.

I became engrossed in my thoughts, and because I was engrossed in my thoughts, I had no idea the world was heating up. I only realized it was getting hot when it started to burn my palms, and by then it was too late. I threw it away.

I blacked out and collapsed on the hard ground, where I stayed unconscious until the next morning.

The chirping of a bird in the woodland and the brightness of dawn that filtered through the trees awakened me up the next morning.

I had forgotten where I was and what had happened for a split second, but seeing the shattered shells of the globe reminded me of everything that had happened the day before.

While I was still trying to comprehend what had occurred, I heard Grandpa Ralph say, "Go, and be who you are intended to be!"

I was relieved to hear his voice because it meant I could finally ask him all of the things I had in mind, but when I looked around, he was nowhere to be found. I was taken aback.

Then he suddenly called out from behind me "Tanya?"

i flipped around, stunned at his full radiating appearance before me.

He Appeared Much more Taller, wider and brighter.

His presence felt surreal.

His robe much longer and beautiful than i had first thought. His body seem to be emitting viberations.

Viberations within that axis i think, that could blow me off my feet. But i wouldn't know how i managed to stand errect.

I wanted so bad to complement how he looked but i was just too confused to let all that out now.

He stretched, Slightly raising His Chin to sniff in some air and then He chuckled.

"Tanya, i had not transformed into this form for decades, the last time i did..." He paused and suddenly his countanance became gloomy.

He sniffed quitely and continued

"What did you say?".

"Grandpa Ralph, i am slightly..." I shuddered "No! not slightly, i'm really scared, scared and confused."

He moved closer to me, held my hands and sighed.

I tried explainng, "who am i? what do i need to do? why do i feel...?" He cuts in, trying to calm me down.`

"Tanya, you're destined for lots and lots of great things and only your wisdom and prudence will guide you.

There are so many things you could not fathom Now Tanya, i will be guiding you through" He hesitated for a while

"But now, that is all i have to tell." He nodded slightly and whispered

"Here's My first mission, And its completed. I have somethings to attend to shortly Tanya, i won't leave you"

My eyes grew blury, i had so many questions I wanted to ask Grandpa Ralph.

Like what happened last night, What it meant and all.

I was so confused and even the thoughts of My Step mother and half sisters or what they would do to me could'nt stand a match.

"Here?" He stretched out his arm toward me handing some rainbow coloured and strongly emitting-flame pearl bangle over.

"It's Beautiful!" I was so dazed at the sight of this strange pearl, But i dared not touch it. It seemed too Mysterious.

"its Your's Tanya, only you can see this." He locked it on my Wrist.

I felt a deep outrageous sensation of pain sink down my arm, it was so chronic that I had a very vivid flash of events I really couldn't put together run through my head.
