The Sun Goddess

Chapter 1

I won't forget the day when my life changed forever, the day I got that accursed necklace. The one that was encrusted in gold and embed in gems. With the sun locket on it. "Nicole, do you know what this is?" my mom had said to me."Um, a really expensive necklace that this family could never afford in a million years?". My mom laughed sadly. "No honey, it is the necklace of the Sun Goddess, Solara. Her spirit and soul is contained in the locket." I was so confused. "What does this have to do with me? I'm just a wizard, like so many other kids, why are you giving this to me?" My dad, who had been silent until now said, "When your mother gave birth to you, the ghost of Solara visited us, telling us she had chosen you to bear her spirit and powers. She told us to give the necklace to you on your 13th birthday." This was too much, I couldn't help but cry tears of pity, for myself. "Nicole, she chose you because she believes in you. It is time you ventured out in the world now." I nodded, and said my goodbyes.

Chapter 2

Solara has been telling me she wants me to find her son, who will be about my age, with striking purple eyes. I thought that was odd, but hey, my eyes turn yellow in the sunlight. I checked into a hotel, exhausted. I flopped down on the couch, and closed my eyes. About five minutes into my nap, I could hear muttering from the hallway. Pissed, I opened the door, to find a kid, obviously working there, saying things like,"I've been here for a year, why hasn't she shown up?" and "If she really loved me, she would come find me!". "Excuse me,could you pleas-" "What!!". I was about to jump down his throat when I saw it. His eyes. They were purple. He stared at me, me staring at him. He looked at my necklace, eyes wide, and said, "But you're so young!" 

 I couldn't speak, this was her son? Didn't he have any manners? Then I realized, he was kidnapped, he was obviously raisedby someone with no morals whatsoever. "I'm just as shocked as you are, I never wanted this," I said coldly. "So you now share my mom's spirit and powers?" I chewed my lip. "Yep..." Silence. "So who took you when you were a baby?" He frowned even more then he already was. "Lunara, the Moon Goddess. She has somesort of grudge against my mo- errr, you. Don't know why though." I raised my eyebrow in confusion. Why would Lunara have a grudge against Solara? Weird, usually when I have a question about her past, she answers me. This time, nothing. "So, what is your name?" He smiled slightly. Finally, the kid brightened up. "My name is Kane.""I'm Nicole," I said. God, this was so weird. I have no idea what to say! "She would go on about her brother, Lunaris. Never saw him while I was there, though." Her brother? Did that mean Solara had a brother as well? "Nicole, are you even listening to me anymore?" Oh, right, I was being talked to. Shit, nice job getting this kid to like you, Nicole. "Oh, yea, I just got lost in thought. Sorry." He tilted his head. "Thinking about what?" he asked. "Nothing important. Come on, lets go to my new house. Well, not new, I've had it for awhile now, but, oh you know what I mean!" He laughed. "No, I really don't."

Chapter 3

When we finally reached my house, I noticed something strange. My door was slightly open! Who the hell broke in? "Stay here," I said to Kane. I went inside, and found some things on the floor. Crap crap crap crap! I opened my secret chest, hidden from sight, and got out my favorite club.  I heard movement upstairs, in my room.  I quietly went up the stairs, looked in the doorway to find a boy, maybe a year older than me, riffling through my stuff. Bam! I hit him square in the head, and he fell to the floor, unconscious. 

 About 15 minutes later, the boy woke up. "What the hell? What hit me?" He turned around to face me, and went ape-shit on me. "What the hell, girl! You could of fucking killed me!" I smirked. "What a shame that would be, thief." He yelled, "Thief, right, I mean I was only trying to make do with the crappy life I have. No money, no friends, no parents, no nothing." Damn, now I felt bad. "I'm sorry, but you know, its a natural reaction. You see someone going through your stuff, so you hit 'em. Wait here." I got up to the fridge and took out an ice pack. "Here, you could use this." He stared at it, like it was going to kill him. "What, its not going to kill you. Its freaking ice." "I, I wasn't thinking that. Well ok, yeah I was." I laughed. Now that I wasn't mad at him, I noticed he was kind of......cute. Was that wrong? "So, what's your name? I'm Nicole." He was eyeing my necklace. "My name is Damian. I-I know that necklace. That's the necklace of the Sun Goddess, Solara, isn't it? She chose you to own it?"
