Ghost Ores

Boarding the family 3

Yashmin's POV

Not realizing how loud I was. The lady my mother called mom turned to face me and within seconds she was standing beside my dad and I, rubbing my head.

"Silly child" , she said as she rubbed my hair. "You are to be chief and head of all the families. And if that isn't reason enough to kill you, know you are a McMelon and a McCleary. If people didn't want you dead I would be worried", she said.

I look up in utter astonishment. My mom hand went straight to her forehead as she let go off her grandma.

And in mere seconds she was beside us. I think it was somewhat creepy how these two women move at supernatural speeds but I was too busy having a self pitying party to care.

"What your grandma means dear child, is that you are special , so that's why a lot of these people wish you dead but that we all love you and we won't allow that. Not even death can keep us away", she said.

Yashshauna's POV

"But how?"

"You thought we would just leave you unprotected", answered my grandma.

"Well you and mom did take my powers."

"Yes we did, temporarily but have you asked yourself why we would do that. Knowing we would leave you open for vulnerable ", Grandma Jenessa spoke again.

"I don't know, I just thought she hated me and you were just following rules, cause mom got the council to vote on it", I responded.

"Your mom took your powers and left you open because she knew", said Janessa.

"She knew what?"

"That leaving you vulnerable means that we could come here to protect you if needs arise. We are truly connected like that.Whenever one of us loses our powers, it opens a gate way to the ancestors directly before you; on both paternal and maternal sides. This gate way allows the ancestors or ancestor to travel to the world of the living; if he or she chooses to.
So your mother decide to purposely take your power away to open this gateway."

I glanced at my mother........"but she wanted to kill Yashmin."

"What?", asked Yashmin and Murron simultaneously.

"She never wanted Yashmin dead, your mother realized a while ago that the council was planning something. She also realized you had an enemy within.  She wanted to bait them out. In order to figure out who they were and what they wanted. Eventually she figured out what they wanted but the who was a whole mystery. So she set the trap and waited...........taking your powers was the perfect trap yet. So she did just that and from that moment, we have been lurking in the shadows waiting."

"You mean all this time you been watching?", I asked.

"Of course, how could I have hate my own child, you are not very smart are you? If you are to take over from your father calculating ruthlessness is necessary. And am not talking taking candy from babies ruthless", said my mother mockingly.

"Hmmmm", was my only response as I didn't know how to possibly respond to that. Insulting me infront of my child and husband.

Yashmin's POV

I always thought my mom was cold and emotionless but her mother, my supposed grandmother was way worst. My mom was like a gentle kitten in comparison. 

"So you are Murron?", she said as she studied him in  detail.

"Yes, I am", responded my dad, "nice to meet you."

"Well I can't say the same. What makes you think you are worthy of my daughter or granddaughter. Both of them are destined for great things and you might just be destined to be their anchor."

My dad opened his mouth to speak but before he could my mother started to.

"Now look mom, this is my house. My family and I may allow you to come in here and disrespect me but you will not disrespect this man",she said referring to my father.

Her mother turned around to face her with a smile on her face. "Finally some teeth", she said "I was starting to think you were a push over."

"It's really nice to meet you", said grandma to dad. "And you are beyond worthy, you make my daughter super happy and you together y'all made me a very special grandchild."

"Enough of this Yashseana", said great grandma Jenessa. " Tell me child, how is my son."

That very question seemed to have silenced my grandmother.

"Dad is fine", said my mother.

"I wish to see him, my dear grandchild", she responded.

"Yes grandma, you will when he comes to visit", said my mother.

"And that will be when?"she asked.

"In two nights time, we will be having a dinner here to welcome the other families brought here?", responded my mom.

"What other families?" The next in line for each family. It's a really long story, let us sit down and I'll explain everything to you in detail", said my mother.

I watched them all sit down and then I was send out of the room so they could have their adult discussion and here I was thinking things were changing around here.

Once more I was being left in the dark but at least now, I had other kids around. Kids like me. I just wish Leona was here.

Word from author.

Hi my loyal readers; so two members from the council is here, one is dead. There is a scheduled dinner coming up and hopes of Janessa reuniting with her son. Everything seems rather well at the moment. But we can never really be sure with my favorite family.

Also tell me what you all think of Yashseana. Do like her? Or is she a bit much?

Have they defeated the final evil. With Yashon gone. Can they relax? He could of been the cause of all their troubles.

Was their location revealed with the surprised visit of Leona? Who knows?

See you next write.
