Chapter 2: The Signal

Rose's P. O. V.

I've been living in the Amazonian forest for about two years. My brother didn't want me to leave him, but he understood why I did. I couldn't stay there anymore with all the electricity, and the almost non existent plant life. I was slowly dying, so I had to leave.

When I left, I took nothing with me, except my owl. I hopped into a boat and went out to sea until the motor died. Then let the current take me. I don't know how long I was on that boat, but one night I passed a invisible barrier, showing me the island my close friend Diana lived on.
I met her when she came to visit in my first few months of living there. The queen took me in and taught me all they know. But, I didn't speak. It's not that I can't speak. But all my life I've just chose not to. I'm 5 minutes older than my brother Barry, and Barry never shuts up, yet I've never peeped a word.

To the Amazonian's, I was called 'Little Creek' because I lived by a little creek. I was called this also because I was always quiet and calm.
But today was a start. Today would lead me to talking for the first time ever. Today, the mother box the Amazonians were protecting was stolen. And with it, the lives trying to protect it.
The Queen had sent out the invasion signal, hoping Diana would see it.
Throughout the following days, I used my powers to make graves, for the fallen, all the while wondering if my brothers okay.

----Dream----
I stood in the bathroom staring at the plastic test in my hand in shock. Those two pink lines making my legs shake and my lip tremble. I could feel my eyes burn with tears and I tried my damndest not to sob. I took a moment to collect myself, then I went to find Barry. I left the bathroom walking down the halls ending up in our 'Lair' as he calls it. he was listening to the police scanner when I came around the corner sticking the test in my back pocket.
"Hey sis what do you want to eat for dinner?" He asked staring at his monitors. I sit and wait for him to look at me but he zoned back into his monitors. My hands shook as I knocked twice on the wall next to me. Barry looked up at me with a smile that quickly dropped at the sight of my tear stained face. He bolted upright in his chair.
"Rosy what's wrong? Was it John again? Is he bothering you? If he's bothering you again you can tell me. Or is the pain back? Are you in pain? I know it's coming slow but I think I found a way to help with that. Maybe turn this whole building into plants so you-" I threw my hand up in front of his face sending his rant to a screeching halt. I used sign language to communicate with my brother.

"I have something to tell you." Barry went to open his mouth but I threw my hand up again to silence him.

"When John cheated on me and beat me up, I was scared, but as scared as I am. I'm scared Barry." My hands were frantic and I was breathing heavily while tears ran free down my face. Barry grabbed my shoulders.

"Rosy hey, come on now, breathe. Take a deep breath. Go slow and tell me what's going on." His voice calm and his expression soft.

"I-I'm pregnant." I signed reaching back and grabbing the test putting it in his hand.

"Your-your pregnant. John got you pregnant. This is not good. Oh! I didn't mean it like that sis I swear. This is just- this is just crazy. What are we going to do? What are you going to do? How are you feeling about this?" He finally stopped talking so I could sign.

"I'm scared. I don't want to go back to him. I don't want to abort, or adopt or even abandon it. I just don't want him to find out I'm so worried if he finds out he will force me back with him again. I'm also scared because I don't think my baby will carry all the way through here. there's no woods, not nearly enough vegetation or water to keep me healthy let alone a baby. I think what's best is if I go off somewhere and find the perfect place to keep me alive. I'm weakest in the city Bar, I'm physically dying from it and all we've done is try to slow it down. If I leave, I could find a perfect place to live and I'll send you a letter or coordinates or something. Please Barry." We were both crying after I finished and he pulled me in a hug. telling me he loved me and that he'd always be there for me.

----dream over----

I jolted upright from my dream which was just a replay of the last time I saw my brother. My hand subconsciously touched my stomach looking around seeing nothing but the embers of the fire and my fur pelt slid off my arms making me a little cold. I sat up adding more wood to the fire watching the wood catch alight. I sighed looking up and spotting Nina, my owl, sitting in the tree next to the one I'm sleeping under. I shook my head and laid down deciding to try and go back to sleep.
