" here An " I give her my present I got her. She has been going to counselling all through Christmas break. So we decided that on Christmas Eve and Christmas day and Boxing Day she was free to be with me and dad. Things haven't been the same since things with my uncle. Dad and I haven't talked about it, Anya just doesn't say a thing so me and dad don't either. Anya opens the present and when she sees the little box she looks at me questionably. " open the box " I tell her softly, she opens and it, to reveal a good locket. She opens it and when she sees the two pictures her eyes tear. I found the other one when we were in Roma. Apparently mom did take pictures of you and her " I say smiling. One was the picture of Anya in the summer, and the other was of her and mom when she was a baby. She was in moms arms. " Sophie " she cries and hugs me ugh rly. I hug her back knowing she's emotional now. " here " she picks up her present and gives it to me. I open it and when I see the next book to the series of the romance book I'm reading I look at Anya and squeak with delight and hug her happily. Now I could continue! " Thank you An " I kiss her cheek and look at the book. " Here Anya. Sophia " dad gave us each are gifts. We place them on the table and I run up to the shelf I climb up on a chair and grab the giant gift. I give it to dad. It's was a wood giant sized picture frame with a picture of me and Anya and him from Christmas break in it. " Come here " dad hugs us tightly. " now open yours " he says. Anya opens hers, its was a beautiful purple necklace. It had a silver heart around the black and purple gem, in the shape of a heart. Anya lifts it up and holds it between her fingers. " where did you get this? " she asks, " it was some one close to me and..Issac " dad says, I look at him and his eyes held sorrow. I take his hand and smile sadly at him. He looks down and we look at Anya. She puts it on, and smiles. " I'll keep it safe dad. don't worry. " Anya says and takes my gift handing it to me. I take it and examine it for a moment. It was a long rectangular shape and it wasn't wrapped it was just leather. I look at dad then back at the box. I take the lid off and when I see the silver blade and good handle with a red jewel I wanted to cry. I take the sword by the handle and hold it up. It had a name on it. Godric. Godric Volkov? I look at dad, " Godric Volkov? " I ask shocked. Dad nods. Godric Volkov is one of the four first alchemist, and him and his brothers were the four kings of Grenada from a million years ago. He was the holder of the Fire controls. Like the air controls, it will increase that person ability. The four jugs were known to be powerful in one element but they still had the others. Godric; fire, Vylad; earth, Kindric; water, and Alexander the Great the eldest of the brothers; Air. Alexander is also my A lot of greats, grandfather. So yes, Godric, Vylad and Kindric are my a lot
Of greats uncles. Godric with a sword, Vylad with a bow, Kindric with boomerang knives, and my grandfather Alexander, Alexander held the controls. He was known for the abilitys, he knew how to use a blade, and how to use the controls better then anyone. I hold the sword up and look at dad. " I can use this in training..can't I? " I ask dad, " I'm afraid not real swords " Dad says, smiling at me with amusement. " damn it " I whisper so only I could hear. I put the sword back in its case. God it was a beautiful thing, the blade was clearly sharpened over the years and shinned to keep it in good shape. I place the lid on the box and lift it into my arms. I bring it to my room and lay it on my bed then go back to dad and An. The rest of the night we spent together, all as a family.
