Destiny

Chapter 29

*JinHee's POV*

A few months had passed since my sisters and I got our powers back and we practiced at night in secret. Things were going very well for all of us although Tao was still uneasy about our father staying in the Palace with us. He didn't trust him and neither did I. I walked through the halls and knocked on MiYoung's office door. "Come in~~" she called. I opened the door and walked in. "Hey MiMi, I said, What are you up to?" "That's Queen MiMi to you!, she said with a laugh, nothing much I'm just looking over some of these cases YiXing has to pass judgement on. I'm doing my best to take some of this pressure off of him." "Awww what a good little wife" I teased. "Oh shut up~,MiYoung said, I owe the man my life and I love him. You would do the same for Tao." I scrunched up my face and shook my head."Oh please~~ no I wouldn't" I said. MiYoung looked at me and laughed. "Whatever~!" she said. I walked over to my sister and kissed her forehead. A flash went through my mind and I saw my sister running through the rose garden with a little boy. The vision passed and I walked towards the door. "Oh by the way Mimi, I said as I was almost through the door, Choose the blue fabric for the nursery curtains." I looked back at her and smiled. I left the door open and kneeled in the hall fixing my shoe. The door closed on its own and I knew that Mimi had used her magic. I shook my head and looked up to find her standing in front of me with her arms crossed. "Thanks for the tip, she said, and next time close my door." She stuck out her tongue and then dissappeared. "Why she always gotta be the one?" I muttered to myself. I walked down the hall to find Tao standing in front of YiXing's office. "Hey, I whispered, what are you doing?" He turned around partially startled by me. "I'm trying to hear what they're talkng about, he said, YiXing is in there... with your father." My eyes widened. "Well... I could try something but I need you to tell me if anyones coming." I said. He nodded and I stood in front of the door. "The secrets inside we want to know... put the words on the wall now let them show." I said. The air shimmered and we stared at the wall for a while. "I don't think it worked~" Tao whispered. Suddenly words began to appear on the door. The only problem is that we didn't know who was saying what. 'So what exactly are you saying?' one person said. 'I'm saying I want you dead.' the other replied. Just then we heard footsteps and I waved my hands erasing the words from the wall. "What the hell was that?" I asked. "I really don't know" Tao said.

*KyungMi's POV* 

I woke up early and got dressed. I had the chamber maids pack me a trunk and the stable hand prepare my usual carriage. I needed to keep up appearances although I wouldn't actually be taking it. Ever since I got my magic back I didn't really need to walk anywhere anymore. I waited until I heard the horses take off then sat on my trunk and teleported myself into JongDae's room. "Ahh~KyungMi!, he said as I appeared in front of him ,you scared me!" "Sorry, I said, I told you I could do it~" He laughed and hugged me. "I'm so glad you're here" he said. "Me too~,I said, Even though I have to hide from your parents... its so good to see you." "Who said you have to hide?" he said. "What?, I asked, I can't meet them~ its too soon after your brother and your father hates witches." "I don't care about any of that" he said. I shook my head."JongDae no~, I said, not now... lets just wait a while." "Okay~, he said, but you're still staying right?" I nodded. "Of course~~" I said with a smile. He kissed me sweetly and a light began to twinkle around me. "What's going on?!" I shouted as my vision blurred and everything turned white. Before I could blink I was standing in my sister MiYoung's office in a circle of candles. "What?! What the?! What just happened ?! What the hell?!" I yelled. "It's a spell...We'll explain it later, JinHee said, we needed you home right now." "Why?, I asked, What happened?" "JinHee and I kind of overheard YiXing and your father talking and one of them said they wanted the other dead. "Oh~ Oh my gosh~!" I said. "Damn~ what is wrong with this family?" JinHee said. "Jin~! language~! not in front of the little one~, MiYoung said while standing up and putting her hand on her swollen belly, What are we going to do about this?" "The only thing we can do, Tao said, we ask my brother" Everyone looked around eachother and nodded. "We will wait until nightfall and then speak to him in secret."MiYoung said. I nodded and teleported myself back to JongDae. I explained everything to him and he agreed that I should be there in case I had to help my sisters. "Be there for them, he said, but I'm going with you." I didnt bother to protest.  against it. I knew there was no way I would change his mind.

*MiYoung's POV*

I waited until nightfall and paced the hall back and forth between my office and my husbands office and my own. I couldn't wait for him to finish working. When the time came I tapped on the door lightly. "Come in~" he said. I opened the door and walked in. He smiled. "Ahh I knew it was you, he said,how are you feeling?" I smirked lightly and sat down in the chair across from him. "I'm alright.... how are you?" I asked. "I'm alright, he said, I'm doing even better now that you're here... or should I say the two of you." He looked down at my stomach and smiled lovingly. I giggled then returned to my serious demeanor. "YiXing, I said, did anything~~ interesting happen today? Anything you wanna tell me about?" He looked up into the air and then shook his head. "No~" he said. I put my head down and sighed. "Kyung~!" I called out. A shimmering blue light appeared in the air and suddenly Tao,KyungMi, JinHee, and JongDae were in the room with us. We told him about what JinHee and Tao "overheard" and he sighed. "I didn't want to worry you~,YiXing said, So what if he threatened me." "So what If he threatened you?!?! YiXing are you serious?!" I yelled. "I'm sorry, he said, I don't need you worrying about me.. you have to focus on the baby." I sighed and looked at the pitiful expression on his face. "I understand~, I said, just please don't hide things from me anymore. I hate it." He nodded. "Okay so now that you two are okay, JinHee said, we need to find our father." 

We walked through the hall and went to his room but he wasn't there. "Where the heck did he go?" KyungMi said. "I don't know~" JinHee added. Suddenly there was a commotion and all the guards in the hall started running toward the throne room. "What's happening?!" YiXing yelled. "Theres something going on  in the throne room~" one of the guards yelled. Everyone ran into the throne room where our father was causing a ruckus. "Dad! What are you doing?!"KyungMi yelled. He laughed. He turned his back to us and laughed hysterically the pitch going from loud and manly to highpitched and womanly. When he turned back our father was gone and Lady Sophia stood in his place.

"I am not your father foolish little girl~" she said. We all stood there dumb founded. "Oh~, she said in a sarcastic tone, have I confused you all? Stupid stupid fools... I'm here to destroy you for what you have done to my mother." "Like hell you are bitch!" I growled. "Ahh MiYoung~ so fiesty!, she said, You've certainly come up in the world marrying my brother and all. What a happy little family you have" I clenched my fists tightly. YiXing stood in front of me defensively. Suddenly she telepathically threw him across the room. "YiXing~!" I shouted. Sophia laughed. JinHee ran up and kicked her in the face. Sophia flew across the room and crashed into a statue. She got up and trapped JinHee in a magical invisible cage. Tao ran over and tried to find a way to get her out. KyungMi rushed at her and the two of them threw bolts of light at eachother,one of Sophia's barely missing KyungMi's head. JongDae crept up behind her and pushed a sword through her back. She lifted him by the throat and threw him at the wall. "JongDae~ No!" KyungMi cried. I opened and closed my hands and threw balls of fire at Sophia. She grabbed KyungMi and used her as a sheild my attacks hitting my sister in the stomach. She passed out from the pain. Suddenly I was alone and running out of options. Sophia waved her hand and a pillar fell over nearly crushing me. I held it at bay with my magic. She walked closer and pulled the sword from her chest and tried to force it into my stomach. That was when the TRUE magic happened. A force feild appeared from my stomach and wrapped around me like a protective cacoon.

My son was protecting me. I pushed the pillar away and stood up while smirking at a shocked Sophia. KyungMi started to stir and she got up and joined me. We backed Sophia up into the wall and the cage that held JinHee prisoner faded away. My sisters held her still with their magic as I raised the sword with my mind. "Goodbye bitch~" I said as I let the sword plunge into her heart. She let out a cry and slumped on the ground. Tao ran over and pulled it from her body. "For good measure~" he said with a shrug as he raised the blade and severed her head. KyungMi ran over to JongDae just as he began to wake up. "Thank God you're okay!" I heard her say as I rushed over to my husband. His head was bleeding badly and he wasn't breathing. "YiXing?, I said as the tears began to fall, YiXing! YiXing please wake up!" He didnt respond. My tears fell harder and my body felt heavy as my own breathing slowed. It was unbareable to breath. I shook his body and called to him again. "YiXing, I cried, YiXing please don't leave me! Please... I love you." My body collapsed on his chest and I cried into his blood soaked shirt. I kissed his face lightly, my hand resting on his wound. "Oh my gosh! look!" I heard Tao yell. I looked up to see a white light coming from my hand and his wound began to heal. Shortly after he coughed and opened his eyes. "Oh my gosh~ YiXing you're alive!" I said as I grabbed him and held him tightly."Of course I'm alive, he said, I would never leave you."
