Fate's Prophecy (COMPLETED)

Christina:

Waking up from my spirit walking adventure was like waking up from a coma. I didn’t remember what day it was, what year, where I was and what happened, but after about 30 minutes and a goblet full of blood, I was back in to the here and now. My soul mate and my mother were hovering over me; they too had never seen me do this. I had had a tinkling feeling in my head and stomach and I just knew, I know it sounds stupid, but I did just know and I said I had to go lay down. When I didn’t return to the dinner table, my mother and soul mate must have just come in to find me, but by then I had already fallen into the spirit realm.

“We have to go to the Werewolf Kingdom.” I blurted out, not really sure how exactly I should explain that we had to go to Desiree’s Kingdom.

My mother blanched and my soul mate looked worried. I was a spirit walker, but I was also a psychic and I could turn into any animals I wanted to.  When I said we had to do something, my parents never normally looked like they wanted to argue with me. My mother looked like she didn’t want to believe what I had just said, but it was true. We needed to go and we needed to go now. We had already wasted enough time waiting for me to come back to myself and we had to get the army together.

“I’m being serious here, we need to go and we need to get the army together.” I ordered. “I just spirit walked! Desiree was dying and I saved her.”

“Who is Desiree?” My mother finally said. Her brows knitted together and she looked confused, but I had no time to give her the long answer.

“She’s Alexander’s mate. That’s where he went when he ran off. He met Desiree and helped her out, she’s the Princess-well she was, she’s now Queen of the Werewolves.” I said as I looked down at my watch and an hour had passed since Desiree and I had returned from the spirit world. “Desiree almost died, that’s why I was sent to the spirit world to go ‘save her’ because Alexander has mated with her. She is back in her Kingdom, but she is going after the person who has been trying to kill her and Alexander, her mother.”

“Her mother?!” My mother screeched in a horrified voice. My mother was the kind of mum who loved her children and would bend over backwards for the children, she’d never try to kill her children and the idea of another mother trying to kill her offspring, well it kind of chinks at my mother. If my mother was on the fence beforehand, well she is now over the fence and had jumped off the cliff. Not only had another ‘mother’ tried to kill her own offspring, she had tried to kill my mother’s eldest son. Rage, anger and horror was waving off my mother in waves.
“So this so called mother was trying to -” My mother started.

“Is trying to, her mother is trying to kill her and Alexander and she got close. She put a spell on the old King and he fought Alexander, but Desiree got in the way and got hurt, hence almost killed and my call to the spirit world.

“Okay, so is Alex okay?”

“Yes, he saved Desiree and Desiree said she was going to take the crown off her father and asked us to get our army together and meet her at Swan Lake Castle to set up with her army, which we really should be getting along with. We are running really, really late.” I said as I tapped my wrist, as if I was tapping an invisible watch. This shook my mother in to attention, she now had a purpose to get her army together, she was off to save her son.

30 minutes later, everyone was ready, including the army. The whole family, me, mum, dad, my brother and my mate, were in our armour and sitting on top of our different coloured horses. Mine was Grey, but was that ‘grey’ that you pretty much thought of as white. She was 3 years old and only allowed me to sit on her. My brother was so much better with horses than anyone else, but the rest of us made due. The army was behind us, staring towards the gates of the castle, ready to leave and head towards the Werewolf kingdom. The whole army had to either be in wagons pulled by horses or on horses as when we looked at Maps we had of the werewolf country, Swan Lake was really far away. It would take us about a day’s ride and we would have to ride at full pelt, no stops and hope that we didn’t have any issues. I had sent a raven on ahead to Alexander and Desiree.
