River was looking through a mirror, fixing her blue ballgown that bought out her blue eyes and pale skin. Her hair was in it natural curls in a stylish bun. She sighed as she tried to hold back tears.
"I'll find a way for us to be together." A man's voice rang in River's ears.
Next thing River saw was a man she thought Thalia was in love with getting married at the alter. Instead of Thalia, it was someone else. She never once looked up to see his face or the bride's face. She silently let a single tear fall. She tried drowning out the vows they made to each other and listened to her breaking heart.
"What are you trying to show me?" River asked. She suddenly pulled into dark familiar room.
"Hello, River. "A voice just like hers but matured in a way said.
River turned to face the voice,"Thalia." She became breathless as she took in Thalia's appearance. She looked just like her but more feminine than her.
Thalia smiled kindly,"its nice to see you again."
"I wish I can say the same about you." River said gritted teeth.
"Your feelings are heightened now and I understand your frustration. "
"Where were you when I needed your help? When Clara was torturing me?" River asked angrily.
"I was always there. I never left."
"Than why didn't you do something when Clara was torturing me. To stop the lunar eclipse from changing me."
"You know I tried to stop her. You know I couldn't do anything to stop the eclipse. "
"Well, you didn't do enough to stop her."
"I understand you're angry and confused but that not why I'm here."
"Then why are you here?"
"To explains things to you. To tell you my story but I'm guessing it too soon. You're not ready."
"For what?" River threw her arms in the air in frustration,"after the shit I've been though, I think I ready, plenty."
"The state of your mind right can not handle it."
"You lied to me."
"To save you."
"Look at how that turned. Don't you think keeping secrets is what's causing this."
"It could've have been worse."
"How can it possibly be worse than what Clara already did."
"Worse. Much, much worse. You don't understand the power you possess. The lengths people will take just to have that kind of power."
"That why you locked my mind. Making me forget the past moment we were here."
"Yes, it was the only way I knew how to save you. No one should know I connected you."
River closed her eyes for a minute trying to possess everything that has happened in the past forty eight hours.
"You need to calm down River. You're going to strain your body." Thalia said and River doesn't stop.
River started to hyperventilate. Tears wouldn't, couldn't stop falling. This was all too much. It coming down like a ton of bricks. It was heavy, overwhelming.
"River, shush....I'm here. We're here." A voice said.
"Logan?" River frown stopping to listen to the voice more carefully.
"Look into my eyes. Everything is going to be okay." Another voice said.
"Edward?" River said confused.
"They're worried about you." Thalia said,"you need to go back to them."
"No." River said, she wasn't ready to face them or anyone.
Thalia placed her calming hand on River's shoulder and offers a warm smile,"its okay. You can stay here with me for a while."
River nodded before crossing her legs and set across Thalia who kneeling in front of her.
"So.." River started trying to fill the silent,"what you showed me before. People get married."
"Let's not talk about that now. I'm more interested in you."
"Me? What can possibly be interesting about me." River said.
"You're the white wolf. How does that feel? Any different?"
River stared at Thalia and how excited she was,"nothing really. And no I don't feel any different. I guess I've always known I was the white wolf. I met one in my dream, well I think it was in my dreams. It gave me this." River peeled off her sleeve and revealed her tattoo.
Thalia nodded,"That was Accalia paying a visit."
"My grandmother? She was the white wolf?"
"Yes." Thalia nodded.
"So what are you exactly. "
"I'm a witch."
"I know that much. I mean are you here right now, are you a ghost?"
"Yes, I'm a spirit."
"What happened?"
Thalia looked away,"your ears are not ready for that story. You've been through too much. You need to recover first." She said.
River looked down.
"You need to go back. They're worried about you. But I have to warn you. It's going to get harder before it gets better."
"You seem to know something I don't. A big plan I don't know of but I'm big part of."
"Everyone is a part of it but yes you play an important role in it." Thalia said.
River stared at Thalia as she got up, knowing she had leave with many unanswered questions.
"Don't expect to hear from me for while." Thalia said.
"Why?" River frowned.
"I'm not suppose to be here. We're both not strong enough to keep me here." Thalia said,"its your body that's taking a lot strain by keeping me here. Until you've completely healed, I can't visit you again."
"But what's if I need your help."
"When you really need me I'll be there." Thalia said before she disappeared leaving River in the darkness alone.
Suddenly River set up and gasped loudly for air before she coughed voilently.
"Hey, you're okay. You're gonna be okay." Hands cupped her cheeks stirring her to them.
River heard Edward's voice but saw Logan's face. Just when she trying to figure it out, she became lightheaded. She groaned as she held her head.
"Lay back." Logan said finally hearing his voice clearly.
"What happened?" Her memories getting blurry.
"Don't talk just get some sleep." Logan ordered leaving no room for an arguement.
