"Azalea where are you going" Carson yells as he, and his younger brother and sister along with they friends ran after a running Azalea. "What's going on" ask Will? As he was running while he was starring at his older brother with wide eyes. "I agree" Julie said, Carson didn't know what was going on with his baby sister. All Carson could remember was that they were playing in the back yard.

When Azalea stops playing and took off running in the direction of the woods. That's how they found theirs self's now. But the situation reminded him of a distant dream. He shook it off as something else, a different feeling. The new feeling was a need.

Like he didn't care, why he had to follow her, he just needed too. He then looked over at his friend Juno and could see that he was running fast just like him, then he really knew something was wrong. That it was happing to everyone else too. Finally his little sister stopped, her white lace dress bellowed around her ankles. Then he looked straight ahead.

To see a ten foot hole ahead of them and in the center of the hole was a beautiful whitish-sliver-ish rock with little grooves in it. Then the feeling came back to him, and then they came to know why they followed her now. His little sister Azalea came to the rock, and looks back at Carson and her younger siblings with a gleam in her eyes. As she laid a hand on the rock. Carson followed her example an, hesitantly laid his hand on the rock along which the other.

Then a bright light, emerge like a supernova around us. When it subsided, a strange mark appeared on their chests. It looked like a star, and Carson along with the others felt a strange power. "What is this mark" Fay asks as she looks at her brothers, sister, and friends with wonder and fear in her voice. "I don't know" Azalea said touching her mark then a voice was in their minds.

"My sweet little Starlings" the unfamiliar female voice song sadly. "Who are you" they all though. "I am the one who call you" "why" Tam ask in his high gay voice. "Because you are the last of the Starlings children to awaken on Earth and you need to be warned." "Of what" they ask still con fuse of what the word Starlings mean. The unfamiliar voice said "the Shades"

"What are the Shades" they ask scare out of their minds at the word. "The Shades" she said "they are the reason you all were asleep." "What do you mean asleep" Carson asks still wondering who the woman was, as she spoke. "It is a long story, and to answer your question my name is Floria." "Will you please tell us the story Floria" Fay asks. "If you wish little one" Floria said kindly.
