      ~~~~~~~~~THIRD LIFE~~~~~~~~~

I looked around and all I saw was blackness!
Where am I?! THINK....WHAT HAPPENED?!
I closed my eyes to remember what happened then I remembered....WHY?! I WAS FINALLY HAPPY!!! I ACTUALLY HAD A WONDERFUL LIFE FILLED WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS THAT I LOVED SO MUCH!!! SO WHY DID THE WEREWOLVES ATTACK US?! WHAT DID WE DO WRONG?!
You did nothing wrong...
THEN WHY DID THEY ATTACK US?!
You noticed over the years werewolves and vampires would get in more fights....this was bound to happen eventually!
WHAT DO MEAN?!
A war between werewolves and vampires was bound to happen...I thought you would have figured that out yourself but you are pretty upset right now!
YOU THINK?! IT'S NOT LIKE I DIED AND LOST EVERYTHING!!!!
Calm down...freaking out won't make you feel any better....
DO YOU REALLY THINK I COULD CALM DOWN AFTER WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!
Your family would want you to calm down...they would want you to be happy...freaking out won't make you feel any better!
I took a lot of deep breaths.
Okay fine....your right. They wouldn't want me to be this upset! Do you know if everyone is okay? Are they alive?
No idea...I only can look through your eyes! I'm not a god, I can only see what you see!
Well I'm hoping that they are....what do you think?
Do you want me to be honest with you or do you want to hear what you want to hear?
I want you to be honest!
Well don't get mad at me for saying this but I'm pretty sure they are dead...
Why do you think that?!
Well I could tell the vampires were getting pretty tired with all the fighting....the werewolves were planning this for a while now and I could tell they were barely tired. The surprise attack really worked to their advantage!
Well I'm going to hope they are alive!
I heard Flower sigh.
Well you should get used to this happening anyways...
What do you mean?!
Well you're a phoenix...even if you die you come back to life when no one else can. You are going to lose a lot of people and won't be able to do anything about it!
So you're saying I shouldn't care about anyone?!
No I'm not saying that at all! I'm saying you should get used to a lot of people dying!
That's not easy to do...if you care about people there will be no way you can't be sad about them dying!
Well I guess I get your point but at least try to get over their deaths or you wouldn't be in a very good headspace....I should know....
Huh? What do you mean by that?
What?
Don't play dumb with me I heard what you said....what do you mean by "I should know"?!
Oh crap...I said that out loud?!
Yep...NOW TELL ME!!!
I can't tell you that....
I groaned.
I completely forgot that you sometimes do that....
Also another thing....you didn't need to bury the book. You could have kept it in your hand and kept it in your next life!
WHAT?! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT BEFORE?!
You never asked....Also I didn't think of it at that time!
How the heck does that even work anyways?!
No idea...probably magic?
I sighed.
That's the only thing that makes sense...I wonder what supernatural finds me next....
Hopefully not a vampire or a werewolf....
True...I don't really want to fight in a war and I care about both supernaturals. I did live with both of them after all...
Well there are three other supernatural beings and maybe humans that could find you! Hopefully we will get lucky.
You mean only me because you won't have to deal with whatever will happen...you will just be watching!
True but it hurts seeing you upset and sad...I just want you to be happy and die of old age and have a semi-normal life!
Awww that's sweet of you to say! Thanks for thinking of me!
You're welcome I guess. But one thing I'm wondering is will you tell everyone you're a phoenix right away or will you keep it a secret as long as you can?
Well I would at least tell my "new" family because I will need to know if my old family is still alive. I don't think I'll be able to stand waiting for that answer. Either way when they answer me I'll be crying either happy tears or actually crying so I bet they will be wondering why I will be crying in the first place!
True but I'm pretty sure they are dead....
I growled.
I'm going to have hope that they are alive!
You do you I guess...
I was about to "say" something else when I heard voices! I heard a voice that sounded male saying,
"Adelina slow down!"
"See Fawn I told you I saw a flash of light!"
Well I'm glad I know my soon to be parents names way more quicker than last time!
"I'm sorry I should have believed you but sometimes you say you saw something and there wasn't anything there!"
"I guess I forgive you but WOW that's a huge egg!"
"Everything is huge to us....we are fairy's after all!"
Oh that's good we got lucky....I'm glad I don't have to fight in a war!
It's going to be interesting living with fairies. Since they are so small you will take even a smaller amount of life energy. You will actually only have twenty years after the last family member dies. You will actually die when fairy's die of old age so maybe you finally will die of "old" age!
That would be great...
Then I heard Fawn say,
"What should we do with this egg?"
"Let's keep it!"
"What?! It's way to big to even carry it back!"
"We could ask other fairies to help!"
"No!"
"Please...it will be like having a daughter or son as our own! You know we tried having kids before but it never worked! I should have laid an egg by now but I haven't! This is probably the only chance to have a kid!
Fawn sighed and said,
"You're right...I wonder what's inside the egg. Whatever it is will be big and maybe they will help keep the monsters out of the village!"
Monsters?
Oh fairies call any animal or insects "monsters" because they are so big and scary to them!
Oh ok that makes sense! I'm excited to live with fairies. It's going to be pretty interesting to be so small!
