 *Asilin- a class or type of deer

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two hours have passed, which like decades. The clock read 6:35 pm. I could not believe I was going through with this.  By this time tomorrow I would be on the battlefield and possibly facing The Demon King. My chest tighten What are the outcomes of this fight, would we succeed? Will we die? Will my brother die? Will I die? I shook my head to clear my thoughts brother would return home soon and and hopefully tell me the battle plan. Maybe some cooking would ease my mind.

I found some asilin deer meat in the freezer and decided to grill it and make some salad to go along with it. After I seasoned the meat and started to cook it I heard the front door open and close very quickly. I walked to the edge the kitchen and stuck my head out peering into the hallway. Yahira stood there fixing her braid to the side.

"Yahira I didn't feel you coming".

"Well you must be in deep thought to have not even have felt me." She let out a big laugh and walked towards me.

I turned back into the kitchen and went to go flip the meat.

"Hey I heard from my parents what the council and your brother plans to do". She let out a sigh. "I also heard what they plan to make you do." 

I turned of the stove and watched to meat sizzle. I felt a lump in my throat. I really didn't want to be reminded of my job that I was going to do.

" Why didn't you turn it down?" I heard Yahira walk to the corner of the kitchen. 

I turned around and saw her looking out the window with her arms crossed on her chest. Her face expression was one I rarely see on her. She looked like she was going though a hard and painful decsion.

" I have to Yahira for my brother for.. my people.."

"Who ever said you had to be the one to protect us! To stand up for us!"

Her words pained me," Are you saying I'am useless?"

"No..no", she shut her eyes really tight and lean her head downward. " I just don't.. want to place my best friend in danger..I could even lose you.."

I felt her heavy sadness in the room and felt my heart get heavy.

" I..I'am not pushing myself to do this, I'am not being forced to do this but my brother was right I'am a Angelic. When Angelics are born we are rare and its always been told since the day Yminas have been created that Angelics are born for a reason and usually it's to help our world in some way. I'am not sure if this raid is the reason why I was born but Yahira I'am a prophecy just waiting to happen."

I looked back up and watched a tear roll down Yahira's cheek. She rarely cried she was always so cheerful. I slowly walked up to her and gave her a slow but assuring hug. Her voiced cracked a bit," Aurora your so innocent and friendly and happy and and ..and my only true friend. I was so angry when I heard your brother signed you up for this, your his little and only sister for damn sakes." Her hug tighten.

" I understand what you mean Yahira but take in my words too." I let her go and faced her looking into her light, yellow-orange eyes. They looked lighter than usual, she really was upset.

" I..I understand," she huffed under breath. "But if your going through with this then so will I!"

"Huh?"
