Chrstanni led me to the center of the room. I noticed several alters with herbs and some kind of liquid.At the back of the room there was a grande alter that especially caught my attention. The material that covered the alter was royal purple with accents of gold. What had me starstruck was what the alter bestowed. The most magical looking dress and imaculate crown. Also with the emsemble were a unique pair of boots and a few different peices of jewlery. Suddenly, I realized Chrystanni was waiting for me next to some kind of platform. It looked like it was made from diamonds. Inside the the strange machine there seemed to be canals with blue liquid running through. It seemed to be glowing. Chrystanni tossed a glance at me her eyes asking if I was ready. I nodded back. Chrystanni closed her eyes and laid her hands palm down and even with her waist.

For a few second it seemed as if the world started vibrating. A moment before I would have entered freak out mode, a screen materialized in front of us. It suddenly lit up. The odd transparent screen began playing a video of a couple. They looked so happy. In love. Then it clicked. It was Chrystanni with my father. She had told me but I hadn't really believed it. Seeing it, seeing my father. Made it feel more real I guess. I hadn't really accepted the fact that I wasn't dreaming.The screen had shown everything. From my conception all the way to the fall of Chrystannis kingdom. It was sad. Horrible. Then I saw his face. The face of Chrystannis enemy, and mine. The fact that I knew the man on the screen angered me to hell. That man is my Uncle Vincent. The man that had been there through my childhood. He married my sister. I wondered if my family knew of his dark, treacherous secrets. How could the man that murdered my father be so close to me. I looked at Chrystanni, speechless.

" It won't be long before he starts looking for you. You must be ready before he finds you."

" What does he want with me?" I asked.

" You are the outcome of the love your father and I shared. Your a half breed, part goddess and human. Your human side leaves you vulnerable but also more emotional than most. The part of you that is from a Goddess gives you great advantages. You will soon discover them. Now, let's start the ceremony." Our hands linked together, Chrystanni guided me towards the alters.

" Protectors of the light , join my circle."Chrystanni called. Seconds later came David and Fiona. David looking handsome as ever, had changed into what must be his warrior gear. The material was silver but it wasn't hard and bulky, like a traditional knight. It looked comfortable and moved with his body like a second skin.Fiona wore a long white dress that, hugged her small body frame. The bottom part of the dress was sheer, showing off her long legs. Her hair in tight springy curls. They joined the circle.

" Fiona prepare the sacred water."Chrystanni ordered.

As Fiona did her part, David retrieved a small empty vial from one of the alters. He rejoined our circle and drew his sword. The hilt of the sword held a dragon entwining itself up to the blade. The blade itself was gold. One side smooth the other jagged. Chrystanni held out her wrist towards David. He slid the blade across her wrist. immediately he pressed the vial under the cut and collected Chrystannis blood before it magically closed up and disappeared . Fiona had come back with the sacred water. David poured Chrystannis carefully collected blood into the water. It must of been Fionas magic but the water started mixing itself. Like a whirlpool had been started in the small glass. The mixing had stopped and the circle had reformed

."Drink." They all said in unison. I downed the nasty mixture. It tasted like dirt on my tongue but also bitter-sweet. Possibly what Chrystannis blood tasted like. Suddenly I felt all weird and funny. Every part of my body tingled. Like a different part of me had awakened. My vision went dark and once again I was gone.
