Here it is...Chapter 5!

A female child born of 4

3 brothers shall she have

On birth an evil so dark shall rise

And death shall come on stormy skies.

Chapter 5 – Can I get some answers here?

I stared down at the phone in my father’s office, he’d realised I’d need privacy to make this call...the guys had all looked pretty interested in hearing what I had to say to her...and seeing their expressions when the door had been closed and locked in their faces was priceless.

I felt really nervous about this call...Inside I felt like screaming but I knew that I wouldn’t get too many answers from her if I started shouting at her...it would only make her angry and she’d never answer me then! Taking a deep breath I picked the phone off the hook and dialled the number making sure I put in the international code she’d written down for me on a bit of paper before I’d left.

*Ring Ring....Ring Ring....Ring Ring....* she picked up on the third dial sounding kind of sleepy but anxious at the same time “Hello? Laura Dillon speaking”

“Uhh...Hi Mum” I said I still really had no idea what I was going to say...

“Lizzie baby...you called me...I was getting so worried....I thought you were de...uh never mind! It’s been hours you must have gotten there hours ago now!” She cheeped down the phone at me.

“Yes...I was tired I kind of fell asleep sorry” I said I could feel the anger at all the lies starting to build inside me...so I took a deep breath trying to hold it back.

“Oh that’s ok honey-bear I should have expected that” she sounded a little tense as if she knew the questions were coming.

“Mum...I’ve got to ask you...why you didn’t tell me I had 4 brothers!!!! I can’t believe that I had 4 brothers and never even knew about them!” it started out as a normal even toned question and ended up in a bellowing shout.

“Eliza Marie don’t you dare speak to me in that tone of voice!” she shouted back down the phone at me.

“WHAT DID YOU EXPECT MUM! MY LIFE HAS BEEN A TOTAL LIE!” I screamed back.

“NO IT HASN’T!”

“YES IT HAS! I HAVE 4 BROTHERS, 2 COUSINS AND A FATHER I’VE NEVER EVEN KNOWN! WHY PLEASE JUST TELL ME WHY?!”

I heard the phone drop on the other end of the line and then a lot of scrabbling around...

“Mum?! Mum?!” I called down the phone line.

“I’m here” she replied sniffling a little it sounded like she was crying...oh god...guilt flooded me and I calmed down a bit.

“I’m sorry for screaming...I’m just so confused”

“It’s ok baby...it’s not your fault I kind of disserve it”

“Can you explain please?” I asked.

“Yes honey I will try...but some of it you will need to ask your father about” she replied.

“Ok...just tell me”

“Well honey...we had to leave because of the prophesy...”

“What?! Don’t be stupid mum you know I don’t believe in any of that creepy rubbish” I snorted down the phone thinking she was making up something stupid to get out of explaining.
