Moxy : Unknown, Untold

Chapter 4

“Mom…why do we have to her now. It’s not like she’s in any real danger.”

“Noocah, honey. Grimdall already know where to find the forbidden child and by luck, it’s your sister.”

“O…k, mom…how is that even possible? I’m not, what’s it called, your forbidden child. I’m just a normal girl...” I’m freaking out, something is not right. “…So that look that Miss Hallowell given me in class, when she talked about the forbidden child, somehow she knows it’s me, but how and what!? First I find out I’m an alien, then my mom shoves out of the house and now I find out I’m a forbidden child! Is there anything else I need to know before I step into that ship?”

“Let’s get in the ship first, before I explain the reason why anything is happening to you.” Minique looks like she has tears in her eyes and heading to an empty space.

“Where are we going…mom? This is gonna take me a while to get used to.” I closed my eyes, shaking my head. I guess I don’t have a choice to go where ever they’re going.

“Our ship, the ride home to Tigstra…” A door opened within the empty space. I’m stopped in my tracks, and in a way my anger has faded for now and is in aww of what’s happening right in front of me. “Whoa…this is so cool.”

“Well, c’mon. Hurry up, we only have 24 hours to get there.” So I hurried inside, and boy, does is look way different than in the sci-fi movies. It looks a lot like a car with a huge behind for us to walk in.

We walked to the front, I could swear this is a car. It has a round steering wheel, a sound system to kill for, everything in the ship looks so futuristic and so cool and so insinc with the rest of the ship.

“Before I start, would you please have an open mind about this?” I hear my new mom saying from behind me.

“At this point, anything is possible with everything going on.” I snapped back into reality, turning around looking straight at her.

“Well, the whole thing started, when I got pregnant with you. I didn’t realize at first, but that was the beginning of a great adventure and disappointingly all hell broke loose. When someone in the guardian council finds out about it, that baby is in great danger.” She continued. “Why is the baby in danger?” That’s kinda strange why someone’s unborn baby would be in danger.

“Because then the baby would be a threat to all species and the most powerful being and no one would know who it would be. The last known forbidden child disappeared just before I gave birth to you. I wouldn’t tell anyone who your father is. Till this day all of the guardians is searching for him and they still don’t know who he is. When the Guardian council found out that I was pregnant again and that I had broken the most important galactic forbidden rule. They demanded that I terminate the pregnancy, but about the same time the Ultimate Guardian vanished. Instead of terminating, I kept the pregnancy going and ran away. I had travelled to the Ancient Willow tree and gave birth to you there. Then I travelled to Earth with your father, to seek protection for you and putting you in a basket and ringing a doorbell and left you there right on the doorstep…” My mom hugged me then taking her seat on the driver side. “…Let’s get started on the journey home, Noocah would you check navigation?”

“Yeah sure, mom. Navigation is set…back home, to Tigstra.” Noocah blindly obeyed her.

“Tigstra? Seriously? Is that even a planet?” Wow, their species name is weird, even their planet’s name is weird, and I’m guessing this will be mine as well.

I took the one of the empty seats and suddenly the seatbelt buckled itself. “Whoa…” I whispered in amazement. “…how long is it before going to get there?”

Noocah gave me a death glare. “Why would you wanna know that? Are you in a hurry or something?”

“No, I just want to make myself ready for the journey.”

“Noocah, she is your sister and you know that, why else would you have told her ‘I won’t let anything happen to you’ mmm? And don’t try to deny it your happy to see her.” I looked over to my mom and she smiled at Noocah, his face went red. Is he blushing? A smile curled over my lips.

“Yeah I know what I’ve said mom. Everyone is giving her all the attention.” Noocah sounds really sad and annoyed.

“This may not be the best time to ask this but, one of the boys in my class said his gonna kick a prince Noocah’s ass. And I’m not sure if there is another Noocah at school.” I wondered.

“Who said his gonna kick my ass?” Noocah said very pissed off.

“Wha-what do you mean, your ass? Wait…are you royalty?” Damn I think I’m confusing myself with this.

“Yes we are and so are you dear little sister.”

“Me? You’re kidding me right?”

“No I’m not.”

“Noocah honey, would you try and help her with everything when we get home…ok…let start the engine.” My mom said in a friendly tone, flipping switches and pressing buttons and I hear the engine roar, it sounded like someone started a racing hot-rod.

I felt a little tired as we took off and decided to take a little nap. “Hey, Moxy are you ok?” Noocah woke me up, shaking me.

Yawning and stretching, almost hitting Noocah in the face. “Hey, why did you wake me up?”

“I just wanted to tell you that we’re half way to Tigstra.”

“I hope so, but I keep thinking about everything I left behind back home. Don’t get me wrong though, I’m excited to go…whatever that planet is called…” I’m sadden by the thought of it.

“Tigstra?”

“Yeah, that’s the one. I just don’t know what to feel right now, I’m so confused, scared, afraid, excited, adventures, happy, sad…I seriously don’t know what’s going on with me…now I just feel like I’m going to cry!!” I got tears in my eyes.

I also kept on thinking, what the people on Tigstra would do to me and how they would react to me and how they would treat me. “When can we eat? I’m kinda hungry.”

Noocah went to the cooler bag to get me some food. “What is this stuff? It doesn’t look like food to me.” I’m a little disgusted.

“Hey, I made this food and it’s good. Nothing wrong my food!” Noocah sounded a little playful, for the first time I found out what I am.

My headache is back. “Argh, my head. It feels like it could explode any minute.”

“It’s that bad, huh? Well let me take a look… Wow, h-how is it already done…?” Noocah gasp in surprise.

“What? What is it tell me?” I want to know what he sees.

“…Well your ears are already where they need to be. And your stripes are showing faintly.”

“My stripes?” She asked in confusion.
