Skinwalkers: The Beginning ( Book 1 ) *Rewritten and expanded

The Beginning

        "Every story has an end. But in life, every ending is just a new beginning."

         - Uptown girls.

        In the beginning all there was a small island that was on the back of the legendary turtle. The island had all sorts of plant life along with wildlife. It was a true paradise that was peaceful and full of life. It was that way for thousands of years until Zeus took it upon himself to send one of the Sky people down to the island and transformed her into a human. While she was living there the Sky woman learned all kinds of magic. While she was learning magic and building herself a small campsite. The Skywoman kept hearing a whisper in her mind telling her what she needed to do in order to survive in this new world. She didn't know if the whisper was her own mind or if it was something else. But she felt like she could trust this voice in her mind.

        After a few weeks of being on Earth the Skywoman had a full-on campsite that included a small little wooden hut that had three rooms in it. One was the bedroom, another was her storage area, and the last room was her living room basically. The Skywoman was sitting outside one evening under the clear night sky. It was the perfect night for the Skywoman to sit there and look up at the night sky. She didn't build a fire tonight because it wasn't cold, and it was better to look at the night sky without the bright light from the flames. It was a beautiful and peaceful night until the Skywoman heard the mysterious whisper within her head again. She wanted to know if the whisper was in her own mind or if it was something else.

      So, she stood up and said out loud "Who is speaking to me?"

      There was a moment of silence before the gentle whisper spoke within the Skywoman's mind once more "I am your guide from a place called peace."

      The Skywoman was surprised, and she kept thinking that being alone for the past few weeks had finally driven her to go completely insane. The whisper could tell that she was starting to freak out a little bit.

      So, the whisper asked the Skywoman "Would you like to meet me face to face."

      The Skywoman answers without hesitation "Yes! It would be nice to see someone else for once."

       "Well... Then I need you to do exactly as I say in order to bring me back to life completely." said the Whisper.

       The Skywoman was about to say yes but something within her made her gut twist and caused her to stop right before she could say anything. She could feel her heart pounding and her breathing was a little heavier. She was very very nervous about what she was about to do. Something about this felt very wrong. As if there was a reason why the whisper was dead and not alive with her.

       "Before I bring you back to life, I have to know one thing first. Who are you?" asked The Skywoman in a nervous tone of voice.

       "I am a friend. I am someone who wants to help you live and survive. But I can't fully help you from where I am at right now." answered the Whisper in a calm and soothing tone.

        The Skywoman thought about it for a moment, and she could tell that she was still nervous. But she also knew that if it wasn't for this Whisper giving her ideas over the past few weeks then she would most likely be dead by now. So, the Skywoman took a deep breath and told the Whisper that she would help it out. The Whisper had the Skywoman build a fire in her fire pit before having the Skywoman hold out her hands in front of her. The Whisper told the Skywoman to close her eyes and repeat after her.

       As soon as the Whisper started saying the words, the Skywoman was one word behind the Whisper "Utere potestate magicae meae flammas aeternas custodis universi accendere. Protector vitae. Phoenix Omnipotens." which simply translates to in English... Use the power of my magic to light the eternal flames of the guardian of the universe. Protector of life. The almighty Phoenix.
