Here lies Ari Kahiro Sins. Lynne held my hand as a stared at the small tombstone. "Kahiro?" Wallace asked. "Mama's middle name was Kazumi meaning beautiful peace. Papa's was Ichiro, meaning first born." I place a single white rose on the tombstone. I glided my hand across the carved letters. "Thats beautiful, Harper."
I smiled. "Thanks....Ace."

"So where do we go from here?" Wallace asked. "Auntie and Uncle Cho, were all we had." Lynne couldn't keep her eyes off the sky. "What about your parents?" Wallace looked at the ground. "Their are not going to be any help." I looked at him confused. "Maybe if we tell them, they will understand. "How are we suppose to get to Quebec, Canada?" Wallace asked. "We have the car, thats pretty much full." Venn added. "Plus Lynne has about $75."
He stuffed his hands in his pockets. "Well you guys can go on to Canada, Im not going."

"Wallace? What's wrong?"his ruby red curls hung just above his jade colored eyes. "I never moved down here.... I ran away." He began to turn a soft shade of red. "My "parents" doe nothing but have babies, inhale alcohol and do drugs. I wanted better."
"Well that's out." Lynne said. "Venn, what about your mom?" He pointed down the hill, to a grave with a bouquet of dead roses.
"Lets just go back to the house. And get our barring." I said, tugging Lynne. She froze. "Imōto tsuyoku narimasu. We will be ok."

***********

The side door was still open. We crept in quietly, the air was stiff, sadness, seem to be the new wallpaper of the house, and the house was filled with a sickening odor. "Lynne pack some food, I'll pack some clothes. Wallace and Venn, you can wash your clothes." They looked at me with little shame I knew that was all they had to wear. I stepped into the hallway, the images were fresh in my mind. I turned down and saw a black mass. I turned away, covering my mouth to silence my heartbreak.
They laid next to one another, hands intertwined, teeth only centimeters apart, even as they burned the loved each other.

I darted up the stairs and emptied out drawers of clothes into a suitcase. I decided to take a good shower. The water pelted my body, cleansing me of some of my grief but not all. A few sobs escaped me.
"Your destiny is upon." I opened my eyes. The water continues to pour but I didn't see anyone. I closed my eyes again. "It is your task. I command you!" The water froze in place, not as ice but as pure a liquid. I looked at it with bewilderment. I saw a figure standing outside the glass shower door, the figure was trimming in gradient white and gold light. I grabbed a bath robe and stepped out. It was the man from the weeping willow tree.
"Hello?"
"Hey angel." He said. He was holding a small present. "This is for you." He handed me the small box. I looked at him " Dōmo arigatōgozaimasu."
I pulled slowly on the diamond bow. The box exploded and built itself into a golden scythe. It hovered in front of me. "This is your's baby girl."
My eyes were locked onto the scythe, the golden finish, the titanium and diamond alloy blade, finally the arrow like tip finish. I placed my hand on it.

My body began to feel hot, like something was welling up within me. I stood in front of the mirror. My head ached,  a small light like came from the center. It began to circulate around my head until a halo ring formed. My back begin to itch uncontrollably. I toppled over in pain. I scratched the creases of my shoulder blades. I turned over and on the floor sat a small black feather.
My skin began to rip, and two enormous  black bird like wings appeared.
"Now, my child.... What is your name." The man asked. I looked in the mirror. My eyes went from a warm shade of brown to a pure iced blue.
"My name.... Is Gabriela."
He smiled kissing my forehead.
"Tomorrow evening, is the end of this life, see to it that His will be done."
I nodded, "yes. Dad."
I walked down stairs, I smiled. "Eeriee!" I flew into her arms falling and tumbling on the floor with her, we laughed until our sides hurt. I got up and smiled. I jumped into his arms. Placing my lips on his. "Hi, Jax." He smirked, and finally "Hi, Angelo." He nodded.
Does everyone understand the plan, and their part.
"I lead the good people away from the bad people." Eeriee said as she pulled out her double edged sword.
"Angelo and I corner the evil. " Jax said
"Lastly I open up the portals."

We joined hands and I prayed.
" Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
