The Blood Born

Chapter 17: Memories

A long long time ago

"Mal? Hey, mal come look at this" A young Logan says running inside grabbing her wrist, dragging his older sister to the pond.

"What is it, buddy?" She asked chuckling at her younger brother.

"Look at what I can do" leaning over the pond, so Malia could see his reflection Logan made his eyes glow yellow. Malia watched proudly as her little brother finally learned how to change his eye colour. She laughed a bit when Logan dipped his head in the pond scarring the fishes. "Did you see? Did you see my eyes?" He excitedly asked as he took his head from the pond letting his eyes go back to their original emerald green.

"I did" she smiled at him, messing up his wet brown locks. "You're getting closer to understand your abilities"

"Cool," he cheered happily. "Does this mean I'm getting closer to my first transformation?" He asked sitting down by the pond.

"Mhm, something like that," she tells him also sitting down. "You still have a long way to go, though"

"Oh, well ok" he shrugged. "Just as long as you're there every step of the way to help me through it all," he says playing with the dirt. Malia tilted her head to the side, looking at him confused.

"Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well... I overheard mommy telling daddy that they will be coming soon since you have the mark, whatever that means" he says carelessly drawing things in the dirt. Malia rubbed at the mark worried. She knew the story of what would happen if one bared the mark but knew nothing of what they would make her do when she reached the right age.

"I won't leave you, buddy" she shares engulfing him in a side hug. "Not until I know you can handle what the world throws at you"

"Promise me?" He asked holding out his small pinky.

"Till my last breath" she promised locking her pinky with his. "Now, come on it's almost lunchtime," she says standing up dusting the dirt from her blue jeans.

"Good because I'm starving," he says standing up as well.

"Well, then let's go see what we can find," she says walking back inside going to the kitchen.

"Hey, Malia remember when you said you will make me a better wolf than you?"

"Yea"

"Well, can you teach me soon?"

"In time, buddy," she said.

Seventeen years later (After Malia took Jacob)

"You're weak," Klaus says to a seven-year-old Jacob as he stood at the doorway of the room.

"I've been practising a lot, brother," Jacob says turning to face him. "Mal says I'm getting better at my technique," he tells his older brother.

"Which you are," Malia says coming into the room, walking past Klaus. "Your brother is just being an as-"

"Ah there is a child present, sister" Klaus said smugly.

"Oh whatever," she says rolling her eyes. Klaus smirked before leaving.
