A New Face

Death

"You're her mother" I asked shocked. she nodded. she did have her eyes but Tamara looks more like her father to me. "Where are we" i asked. "Between worlds" she frowned. Huh? "You died. your soul is now floating between life and death" she said. "I'm dead.....That means you are to if I am not mistaken" I frowned. "Yes. I killed myself a month ago" she said. "Why" i asked. "There are things that you don't know. Things Tamara keeps hidden from everyone" She frowned. "She's hiding something" i asked. "You know that Tamara was taken by Naraku. What was never discovered was that I was there as well. I helped Naraku kidnap her by saying I would accept her" she sighed. My mouth fell open. "What the hell did Tamara ever do to you" I growled. "It wasn't me. Well not really. Tamara's transformation when she was young needed emotions to evolve her. She unknowingly sucked the love and affection I had for her. My mind was filled with hate and rage for her, even though I didn't know why" she cringed.

"I have been stuck in that loop of hate until a month ago. The power no longer worked on me. But by that time, I could never ask for forgiveness. I did too many horrible things to her that I can never forget. My family is gone. So, I decided it was best to end my life. I had promised to love and cherish my family and I failed." she cried. "I'm sorry" i frowned. "But Tamara needs you now" she said and wiped her eyes. Suddenly the walls turned to a battle between Tamara and Naraku. Tamara's entire being had changed. She looked half monster half human. Her eyes were completely black, even the white part. her teeth were longated and her hair was puffed out. she didn't look like she was in control at all. "Tamara is going dark. Her power is too much to handle while she is emotionally unstable. If this continues, she will kill naraku. But she will kill herself and everyone on the planet as well" Danielle says. "I need to stop her" I urged.

"That is why I am here. I cannot rest until I know Tamara is safe" she smiled softly. "So how do I get back" I asked. "Everything is connected Felix. A line that holds even the universe together has always been around" She said. "Meaning" I asked confused. "Tamara is your connection. She holds power. More than anyone in this universe. Much of that power is to protect the ones she loves including you" She informed. "You are the same. You hold power as well, locked deep within you" she points to my heart. "I have power" I gaped. She nodded with a smile. "You have to connect back with Tamara. The connection is there but it has become weak. Return her back to normal and your powers will awaken" She smiled. "Connect how? like telepathy" I asked. She nodded. "Yes, you should be able to feel it. Bring her back from the darkness" she begged. "I will try" I said. "...my time is up here" she frowned. "Huh? you have to stay" I urged. "I can't. I have to face the consequence of my crime" she smiled sadly. The ground began to shake and cracks began to appear. flames erupted from the ground. She was trapped by the flames but did not run. Chains sprung out and wrapped around her body. 'Please, listen to this pathetic cruel persons last wish. I want my daughter to finally be happy. She was my treasure and I never wanted any of this to happen to her. She is now only truly happy with you. Save her and cherish her because I was not able to. I made a mistake and I am now paying for it. I love Tamara. I always will. Please don't make the same mistake and lose her to. please promise me" she cried out as she was slowly dragged down. "I promise. I will love her forever" I yelled. "You are a good person. I wish she had met you sooner" she smiled and finally was engulfed in the flames into what I could only assume was...hell.

The cracks closed and I was left standing there. "I won't fail you" O said and turned around. The battle raged on between her and Naraku. blood was everywhere and the sky was now covered by clouds and lightning. I could only feel a faint tug. SHe was losing the battle with herself. I needed to hurry. I sat down and closed my eyes, trying to focus on the pull that connected me and Tamara. I sat there for a long time until I felt the pull get a little stronger. I could feel wind blowing and soft grass underneath me. I opened my eyes expecting a beautiful field but instead I found a world slowly crumbling. Trees were slowly dying. The sky was dark and the crashing of waves resounding through the air. In front of my stood a tall castle that looked about ready to collapse. rocks fell from the top and glass shattered out the window. "Kill" a voice orders. I look around but no one is there. "Kill everyone" the voice cackled. I could hear crying coming from the castle and rushed in. There I saw Tamara curled into a ball surrounded by shadow. Each had a sinister smile on their face. "Kill them" they chanted. "Shut up" she yelled and clenched her ears, trying to drown them out. "Make them pay" voices urged on. "Tamara" I called but she didn't hear me. She had tears streaming down her face. "Open your eyes, please" I called.
