Secrets in Paradise

~Stare~20~

"Actually what? More secrets?" I felt aggitated.

"I am your sister. I am the healer of the seas. One of them at least. When mom and dad were taken, since I am the older sybling, you became my responsibility." She explained.

"So something I know is the truth." I mumbled to myself.

"Okay, I can explain everything!" Dylan ran in and slammed the door startling all of us, especially me.

"Explain what?" Uncle Rusty asked his grandson.

"That he's a traitor," I said kinda mumbling as I started to walk out. Unfortunately, I had to walk past Dylan for that and hopefully I wouldn't kill him. That wouldn't be good on my record.

"Wait." He put his hand in my shoulder. Just stopping. "Just let me explain." A bit of pain in his voice.

I waited a moment. "Fine." Why did I have to have a soft side for him.

He pulled me in front of him and put his hands on my shoulders. "I didn't know." He bent over slightly to my height and starred into my eyes. "I didn't know Malana was planning this. They only gave my wings to allow me to live. I'm not a spy or anything. I've never even met the people that rule there. Plus I would never do that to my own family. Would never do that to you." He was dead serious.

"Why do you care about me so much?" I continued his stare.

"I-I don't know. Okay. I just do." He answered ;however, we exchanged a deep stare for quite awhile.

"They wanna kill me." I think I started to breakdown. It all hit me harder again. "Why do they wanna kill me. What did I do?" I pleaded almost whispered. And scared.

"I don't know." He answered.

"Wait! Who wants to kill you?" My actual sister asked.

"The sky realm." Uncle Rusty answered as if coming to a major realization. He and Emily looked at each other like oh-dear-gods.

"What?" I wanted to know what they were thinking.

"Go upstairs and change. Well discuss this after your done." She answered with a dead serious face.

"O-okay," I jogged up the stairs. This can't be good. Not just oh this is bad. It was more like this is fricking serious. There is no once of good anywhere to be found. Prepare to die.

What does the sky realm, Malana, want to kill me? What did I do? The sky and the waters were two completely different things, its not like we could take over their territory. Fish tails I'm pretty sure are meant to be used for swimming in the ocean. Not flying in the sky. Or swim through the water. I don't know how things are done up there.

What is there motive? Oh wait. I do know.
