The accomplishment of light

28

 
    "Are these entities going to continue to do this to her?"
   
    I shrug my shoulders just looking at her perfect tear stained face
   
    "I wish I knew, I don't seem to see them in our future but I hope not"
   
    I climb in beside her and pull her onto my chest and I look to mum
   
    "Will you lock the balcony door and I don't want her stressed again, if she wants to change something let her do it consequences be damned. I'd rather Carly healthy and happy then stressed over something stupid"
   
    "Agreed"
   
    Dads leave and mum lingers for a while, she sits on the other side of the bed, running her finger down her cheek and she frowns
   
    "She's really hurting you know, have you thought about adoption?"
   
    I look to her and shake my head
   
    "What would be the point? They might be our child but they would forever be overlooked because they don't hold our powers. It wouldn't be fair"
   
    She purges her lips
   
    "Not necessarily, Just think on it, just because they don't hold your powers doesn't mean it can't be alpha"
   
    I nod my head, if she wanted me to adopt a football team I'd do it, anything to stop her heart from breaking any further. Mum leaves and I kick off my shoes and undress her, pulling her into bed and under the covers with me. I kiss her head and hold her.
   
    I'd do anything for her, Cain goes over it again and again, he was so confused, as was I. I hadn't seen her react like that ever before and it scared me. Carly is my life, it's my mission to never see her cry, feel her heart break, or have her put in danger but now we seem to be fighting an unknown that I don't know how to feel about.
   
    I fought myself, trying to sleep and when I finally managed to close my eyes, It felt like only seconds before I wake up to Carly screaming bloody murder, as I open my eyes I'm surrounded in mist, she screams pushing it back from her as she thrashes around the bed.
   
    I growl furiously sitting up and glaring at it, it moves back as I look at Carly, she was trembling but still asleep.
   
    I felt helpless, like this is one thing I had no idea how to fight. Her eyes slowly open but immediately widen when she sees the mist that had us cornered.
   
    "What the fuck is happening?"
   
    She gasps, pulling back against me tightly
   
    "I don't know but maybe you need to ask your friend for help on this"
   
    She looks at me but jumps as the mist tries to touch her again
   
    "You mean Jesus? I don't know how"
   
    I nod my head
   
    "Yeah I'm not sure how to either"
   
    I take her hand and squeeze it, pulling her against my chest as I glare at the mist
   
    "Jesus if your around I could use some advice"
   
    She says, Suddenly the mist around us spread out and tried to escape from every possible opening, my heartrate picked up and a cold sweat broke out on my skin as Jesus appeared in my room. He holds the aura of authority that makes everything inside me quiver in fear.
   
    "What seems to be the problem sister?"
   
    I jump pulling the blanket up and around her, freaking out incase Jesus seen her.
   
    "The black mist keeps showing up, it tried to get into carlys head earlier and I woke up to it surrounding us. How am I meant to protect her from it, especially when it's asking her to kill herself?"
   
    He and Carly both looks at me and I swear I nearly piss myself, his presence was freaky as Cain basically shrivels up unable to breath. Carly looked so confused like she didn't remember any of it
   
    "Her heightened emotions call on those that taunt her, I can put protection in place in her head for that, the mist on the other hand is power that is yours, or will be. You are an entity in itself you both are now. That's why you can not go to heaven, your no longer human."
   
    He points to the roof as he talks, then he waves his hands in our direction
   
    "Your darkness will continue to grow as will her light, her light will filter the darkness and spread it between you both. Don't fear the mist accept it, it's better to accept it and filter it then it is to reject it and allow it free in the world, it's actually a positive thing about your existence in my opinion"
   
    He smiles at me and my body starts to relax as he approaches Carly placing his hand on her head. She had already passed out again, although I don't know how she could in his presence, even relaxed I'm extremely aware of everything around me.
   
    when he touches her he looks at her sadly then to me. Tears brim in her eyes and fall down her cheek as she sobs still asleep. He closes his eyes and her stiff sleeping body slowly starts to relax and soon she falls limply into my arms and he pulls back as she sleeps peacefully.
   
    "She will need to sleep for at least a few hours, she's in a lot of pain she might appreciate a distraction"
   
    I chew my lip nodding my head
   
    "Do you think it would be wise to adopt?"
   
    I don't know why I suddenly wanted his opinion but I did, I want to help her in any way that I could.
   
    "There are many many children waiting for your help, they just have not arrived yet. As for adopting you can but ultimately they will not inherite what you have and unfortunately to live in the life you and Carly live in is a dangerous one and a child with extra powers to protect themselves would be safer than a child who is defenceless. but either way you will produce an hire one day and she will bring you all together, she will be the Moses of your kind but you know that already"
   
    I smile at him sadly
   
    "That's what worries me. It will be a long long while before she has a baby. I just want her to be happy. It's all i've ever wanted for her"
   
    I sigh, feeling like i've failed
   
    "She is happy, she chose to come back here and save you. She chose you over peace in heaven, she is happy. The voices will haunt her but she will learn to live with them with our help. They are sometimes too tempting to ignore but she must, just like you can't hand over your power. You think if you give it away that it would be over. It won't ever be over, the devil will convince someone to stab his wife and live off the hardship that he will face while he dances on the grave of his wife, he comes to kill, steal and destroy then he strives In the misery of those less fortunate who felt like they had no other choice but to listen. You can't ever give in and neither can she. Not ever. Why did you not call on me?"
   
    I frown and shake my head
   
    "Me? I didn't think I could?"
   
    Cain shivers in fear in my head, but I know what he's thinking, we are darkness, I didn't think we could
   
    "Of course you can, you're a good man and me and my father can see that. Just give the shadows the home they deserve in you, better become a part of you then part of the world"
   
    He smiles at me
   
    "At least I'm good for one thing"
   
    I tell him smirking, he stands up and nods slightly
   
    "I better be off, but don't be afraid to call on me brother, just because your soul is black doesn't mean there are any tarnishes in it"
