Flame's For One's Rights

Chapter 6

Chapter 6

The mist watched me as the surroundings changed to darkness. "As I said each gift had meet their god once before in a different life. Raven had meet Proteus by accident, he was a young water prince and when he died he cried for Proteus instead of himself. He wished to allow the god to not be lonely anymore."

He seems to smile at that, "Nitesh was a little garden snake who died because of a plague that fall onto him. He had wished to show Geb the kindness he was once shown from him. You were a slave to land creatures, you saw the Master of Fire for who he truly was, a man who wanted someone to love."

I tilt my head wondering why he did not speak of the other ones I knew there was. He seems to of read my mind because he smiled more.

"Because you may not know this, but one gift has never died, and one is reaching its end. One has yet to be born and that is what bring me to you. I know you are scared because you do not wish to do as the shadows say. Rabbie, you are in control of your own self. No one else can say what you can and cannot do. For that is why you were born the Gift of fire, to have the rights you did not have before."

The mist slowly forms to show something else. The dream I always had with the child. "This can happen, but it is your choice if you wish for it to happen."

I look at him, he seems to be very wise for who I thought it really was. He seems to know just what I was thinking every time also and that seem to make him understand I knew just who he was.

"I cannot relieve myself yet so please do not say anything. When the time is right we can speak of it, but until then you cannot say anything." I rolled my eyes, oh yes like I could.

He chuckled softly before I jumped away when Raiden move to wake me up.

"You seem to be dreaming really good." He smiled softly as he helped me up and dust off any dirt. I shrugged, I was sure it was good, but I wasn't trying to think of that. Turning to the door I waved him bye, "Leaving for the gifts? They will be happy you want to join them."

I look at him feeling he knew more then he was letting me know. I had always known he wasn't telling me something. He smiles softly and chuckled, "We will meet again maybe not now after you leave, but we will meet again."

I walked out the house and back towards town. I felt much calmer now. I was set on making sure the dream I had comes true. Not just for me but for someone else.

It wasn't just my life on the line but my unborn child that I will have later. I must make sure the child was to come.

I gasp when I heard the voice of the shadow guy, "So you have spoken with it and now you think you can turn away from me. I made you the perfect Gift. You will do as I say."

I shook my head, no I was done bowing to the others. I would not allow them to control me.

"You do not even know your prophecy let alone where to begin in finding it. Just give up boy." I felt my eyes burning with unshed tears. I would not give in to him.

"You have before, why is this so different? Because you know you are special to the Master of Fire? Why would he want a used whore like you?" I knew he was saying this to try and break me, but it still hurt to think it was true.

"You want to know something, I'm sick of hearing you!" I turn to see Raven standing near with the god Proteus. "He is the one made for The Master of Fire. He will prove it and we will beat you!"

How would he know if I truly was worthy to be with him if I was so used? I know the shadows had said raven was once used by his brothers and their pirate crew, but he had gotten over it instead of staying in the darkness. How could I do that?

A thought came to my mind, why do I have to change for the god? I am here to be free. That was why I was reborn was to be free with him. If he doesn't accept me then it is his lose not mine.

A feeling washed over me as I thought this. It was like a peaceful feeling. My whole body felt lighter then it had in years,

Raven smiled bright as he watched me, "Your name matches you greatly. Your flames are bright."

I look at myself seeing the flames consuming my body but not burning anything. Amazing. I look at them and smiled softly. Maybe just maybe I was here for a good reason. I may not be the perfect gift, but I was me. And I wasn't about to let the shadows to keep controlling me.

"You will regret this boy, he will reject you for being used. When he does you can hurt him like he deserves." The voice vanished, and so did the darkness surround me. I look at Raven as he came towards me smiling softly.

"Let me tell you this, I was used too at one point, Proteus still accepted me because he saw through it to me." He took my hand gently and lead me towards the town. The boy jester ran to his mother's side and hug him. His eyes turn to me and he smiled at me.

His name fit him very well for what he was. A trick hiding in a child's body. I was sure if I even thought to say anything it wouldn't end well for me.

-_-_-_-

(Author Note- man y'all have no idea how hard this is for me, I've never done a mute character to any of my stories, yeah raven was for a bit but he has his voice back. Rabbie is born mute.)
