Children of the Balance

speak your truth

  "I think it was a good idea to stay in for lunch." Lilly voices made my ass itchy. I was killing to set next to her. Alicia potion was done. She was in the kitchen getting our drinks together. She came out with them. She handed Lilly hers first. "Thank you, Alicia. Its nice of you to serve us."

"I thought it would be a fun way to try new recipes." Alicia smiled and walked off. She was never good at lying. I guess that changed.

"So, Lilly where did you two meet?" Lustfayette was good at small talk.

"Oh, it was at the super market. No where special." She looks over to Michael. They share a smile and I got sick to my stomach. "I was a cashier and you brother was my favorite costumer."

"I was actually following you at the time. I figure you was getting to move on. So I ask her out and here we are." Michael looks over to me. "If it wasn't for your rebellious attitude. We would have never met. We leads me to this."

Michael come over to my side. He got down on one knee. He reaches in his pocket and pulls out a necklace. On it in gold was Best Man.

"Are you serious?" I took the necklace and tears rolled down my face. At that moment I hope I was wrong, but in a minute. Lilly is about to tell how she really feels.

"Yes. I want to next to me the whole time." Michael stands up and put the necklace on me. "You have always been by my side. So you have to be at my wedding. I love Damion, but have you seen him smile. It's not something I want hunting my wedding album."

"Wow, you think I really want this monster in my wedding. Let alone be married to one. I use to have Kings worshipping me. Your mother took that away from me." Lady Marco tries to cover her mouth. Her hand flew to her side, but her secret was out. "You did this boy."

The clear shy formed large gray clouds. That soon cover the sky above us. Lady Marco waved her hand and the table was gone. We jump ready to attack. Michael blinks and he snapped into action.

"What I miss?" He looks over to us.

"Your ex girlfriend is a old friend of mom. And she want to take the Balance from me." I raised myself in the sky and faced her Lustfayette joined me.

"I can't fly guys." We look down. Michael then take off.  "I'll go get the others."

"Your mother took everything from me. So I took her from every." Lady Marco laughs.

"Where are they?" I could feel The Balance was trying to come out. I needed answers before we kill her.

"Give me The Balance and I will give you back your mother and father." She waves her hand. The Balance was released from me body.

"How dare you?" Good flys over to her ready to attack.

"Stop." I raised my hand pulling Good back. "Tell me where you have my parents."

"Just like you mother. Always making demands." She mocked my mother.

"You want The Balance. Why?" Evil voice roared shacking the earth beneath him.

"With my powers and The Balance at my control. I can take what belong to me." Lady Macro wasn't afraid of The Balance. She was powerful but so are we.

"You are a powerful which, but not powerful enough to hold us." Good steps forward. He waves his hand and the storm clears. "Now release the Van Castro."

"Become one with me and I'll release them." Lady Marco snaps her fingers and my parents appear.

"Elrick, is that you?" My mother blinks and tears form in her eyes.

"Silence. Now boy release The Balance to me." She smiles.

"Elrick, don't do it." My father voice was still as deep as I remember.

"Lady Marco let go of my parents." Alicia storms out the house with Michael in form and Damion with his ax behind him.

"Mother. Father." Damion start to cry, but snap into battle formation.

"Damion, my son. You make a might king." My father bowed and my mother followed.

"Alicia, my daughter what a powerful witch you have become." My mother raised her head. "Michael, my son you are just a beautiful as your father."

"How touching?" Lady Marco lowers herself to my parents side. "Now, give me what I came for."

I looked at my family. Once again reunited. I felt I had to do this. The Balance turned to me. I couldn't let them go. I looked over to Lustfayette. He had an idea. He knew the only way to fix this. He didn't want me to, but in order to save my family I had to. My father  and mother looked over to me. I pulled The Balance into me. I could feel their power flowing inside of me. Together we are the most powerful being on this planet. I could feel all of good and dark magic flowing through me. We were one and one was taking that for me.

"Lady Marco, The Balance had made a decision." The three of us talked in unison. "For the crime of disrupting The Grand design. Your punishment is death."

"Death?" Lady Marco grabs my mother by her neck. Pulls her to her feet. "You made the wrong decision."

"Let my mother go." Alicia lift her and the ground shock under us.

"Hush child. You will be next, after I kill your parents." Lady snaps my mother neck like a toothpick. My mother's body falls to the floor.

"Mother." Damion and Michael charged at lady Marco. She waves her hand over field. It open up, swallowing Damion and Michael.

"Brothers!" Lift my hand, bringing them back to the surface. I close my hand into a fist and the hole closed. "You will do this family no harm."

"Why do you protect them? Such powerful being as yourself shouldn't care for these ants." She waves her hand over my father.

"My children are immortal. My husband is a vampire. I am the Queen of Witches." My mother shot up from the ground. Her body covered by a bright light. "You would think I would cast a immortal spell on myself."

"Mother." Alicia grab Daphne hand.

My mother raised her hand. Lady Marco flames blow away. She reach for Lady Marco, but she was too slow. Lady Marco flew back toward me but I wasn't her focus. The Balance exit my body with out warning. They grab Lady Marco. My sister and Daphne runs to my mother and father. Damion and Michael were still out of hit.

"Lustfayette, you know what to do." He nods and change into full demon. The Balance nods and turn towards Lustfayette. I raise my hand calling lighting to me. Lustfayette flew with great speed towards Lady Marco and The Balance.

"No, this is not how it's supposed to end." With that being said she was gone.
