(Dream 2 years later)
Lauren's POV
A dark shadow watched over Ember as she slept. "Who are you?!" It swiftly grabbed Ember and disappeared. "No! Ember! Where are you?! Baby?!"I woke up in a cold sweat with Ember in my arms. It was still dark out and there was a slight deepness fo the dark. As if it were never ending and something could be lurking inside it. I felt Ember start to wake up and she opened her eyes. "Baby Shh, go back to sleep."
She stared out the window into the darkness. "M-Mami..."
"What is it baby? What do you see?" She stared in the same place. "T-There's someone out t-there..."
I reached to turn the light on but she stopped me. "Mami...it's the darkness that was attached to Camila. T-The shadow man..." the full moon's reflection off the window gave a glare.
"Baby there's no one there..."
She nodded and pointed at the window. "He's staring right at us. I-I can feel the darkness from here." Her voice came out a whisper. "I-I think if I sleep, I can talk to him..."
I shook my head immediately, knowing that if she did, he could hurt her. "No, absolutely not. If there is someone that you see and I can't, that means that they are a spirit, demon, or angel. And if that is the case, If you use your power then they can hurt you..."
she grabbed my hand. "Mami, Camila and Sinu will be there. They'll protect me." I sighed.
"Okay. But if anything happens, do you know the spell to come back?" I nodded and kissed her forehead. "I love you so much baby."
"I love you to Mami." She shut her eyes and I slowly felt her fade away. I hoped she would be okay.Ember's POV
I felt myself fade away and looked around. "Sinu? Camzi?" No answer. I started looking around and heard footsteps downstairs in the basement. I slowly crept down the stairs and heard an unfamiliar voice talking with Sinu. "You'll never get her. She's so much more powerful than you'll ever be!" Sinu spoke. "She's a kid, with no experience, I think I'll be okay." The dark voice spoke. I peaked my head in to see Camila and Sinu behind a circle of a pitch black liquid. The shadow man stood tall, his long arms and legs helped him tower over Sinu and Camila. I felt the darkness that radiates off of him and my eyes started to sting. "Who are you?" My voice came out strong and confident. He turned around and smirked. "You smell like a half blood." I glared up at him and clenched my fists in anger. I felt my essence come out and Camila spoke loudly. "Don't Ember! He'll only absorb it!"
"No he won't."
I stepped up to him and the essence turned from pink to a pure white as it brightly glowed, making him step back at the presence of it. "What the hell is that?!" I stepped up to him. "Light." I walked through the black barrier that was holding them captive and then smiled at him innocently as I hugged him. The shadows turned into a black liquid that sank into the ground and back to hell.
I fell to the floor weak and Sinu immediately lifted me. "Ember! Baby are you okay?!" I lazily looked up at her and she rushed me outside and into the moonlight. "Come on, come on!" I soon felt myself regain strength and hugged her tightly. Camila looked at me in a sorrowful manner. "Ember I'm so-"
"Don't be Aunty Camz. Mami forgives you, and so do I. You were young, heartbroken, and in pain. Darkness makes you do bad things." She hugged me tightly. "Y-You called me Aunty Camz. Baby I... technically I'm your other Mother..."
I furrowed my eyebrows. "How?"
She hugged me. "Your mom and I, well when I was alive, we were going to get married." She smiled. And I jumped up and down. "MAMA AND MAMI SITTING IN A TREE!"
She smiled widely and laughed. "Now listen baby. I want you to tell your mother that I said I love her, and that I will always be there for her. Tell her that even though I can't answer back, that I will always listen." I smiled and kissed Mama's cheek. Grandma Sinu hugged me. "Okay baby, go home. I'm sure your Mami is worried."
I nodded and hugged Grandma back before shutting my eyes and saying the words I had memorized. I felt myself waking up and Mami immediately hugged me. "Are you okay?! Did they hurt you?!" She looked me over and the girls did the same. "Lauren told us what happened. Baby what did you do? Did he hurt you?!"
I sat up on my bed. "No. Ermm I learned how to defeat demons! I can turn my essence into light Mami!" Mami hugged me tightly. "I saved Mama Camzi and Grandma Sinu!"
Mami's eyes shot to me. "Mama Camzi and Grandma Sinu?!"
I nodded. "Oh! Mami! Mama said that she wants you to know that she loves you and that even though it may not seem like it, she will always listen to you. She also wants you to know that she will always watch over you and make sure that you are safe."
Mami's eyes watered and she smiled happily. She said aloud. "I love you Camz. I always will! You are my one and only." She smiled and wiped her tears to hug me.
"Well Baby, we have a few hours till the sun comes up. How about we rest until then?" I nodded and yelled. "SLEEP OVER!" Dinah yelled. "I'LL GET THE MOVIES!"
"I CALL FRONT ROW!" Ally yelled because she always has to sit behind Dinah; when Ally is shorter than her. I giggled and Ally scooped me up. Mani ran off with Dinah to go get the movies and stayed with Ally and Mami. We waited about 10 minutes until I got up in between Mami and Ally's conversation and went to go check on them. I walked into the kitchen and saw what I didn't need to see.
There was Auntie Mani sitting on the counter with Auntie Dinah in between her legs, kissing. "AHHH!" I covered my eyes and they immediately pulled apart. Mami and Ally ran in and Mami lifted me. "What happened?!"
She yelled and Dinah and Mani immediately fixed their clothing and hair. "Uhmm..." Dinah spoke.
"Well... Ember sorta walked in on us making out...."
Mami's eyes went wide.
"You were what?!" Ally placed a comforting hand on Mami's shoulder. "Lauren, maybe we need to Uh...give Ember the-you know, the talk?" She said as more as a question than a statement. "Ally, shes 7." Ally looked at Mami. "But with what she just saw, I'm not sure we can hold off any longer..."
Mami sighed and placed me on a chair facing her. "Okay baby. So what you just saw was now something you should have, and you're aunties apologies for that, right guys?" She looked over at Aunty Dinah and Mani; making them nod rapidly in fear of the green eyed momster in front of me. (Fun fact, I call my mom MOMster!)
She looked back at me and said. "Okay baby, when two people really love each other, as more than a friend, they want to spend every second of every day together, they want to have children together, they do things like kiss, or touch or even touch where they are not supposed to baby. Because that is something that only that person you want to be with for forever can do. They can touch you, they can kiss you, and you can do the same-
"With Consent of course!" Ally added.
I nodded my head and listened. "And Em, in order to have kids or make a baby you have to do something I know you won't think is good or special. But baby, it's not something that you can just do, it has to be special between the two people." I felt my eyes glow as I looked over Mami's shoulder seeing Mama. I smiled. "Why are you smiling Ember?"
I looked back at Mami. "Mama is here." She cracked a smile as well and blushed covering her face. "I can't do it." She covered her face with her hair, smiling widely and blushing brightly. "Mami! Mama is laughing at you!" Mama laughed at Mami as she tried to brush Mami's hair away from her face but was reminded that she cannot touch or communicate with her. I brushed her hair away from Mami's face for her and Mama smiled at me. "Mami, Mama says that you can do it. She said to do it for the both of you." Mami blushes but cleared her throat and kneeled in front of me. "Okay, as I was saying. To make a baby, well you have to do something special. And if you don't put all the love into it, it won't work because Em, it needs to be special between the two. Each action must show how much they love each other. And so, they touch each other and explore each other's body. Between a male a a female, the male would have a puzzle piece that goes inside the female which completes them. And that Em, that creates a baby. That missing piece, when they are completed, that's when the female gets a baby in her tummy. And it takes around nine months for the baby to fully develop and grow. And out of the female's puzzle piece is where the baby is born." I looked at my lower area. "Mami I have a puzzle piece?" She smiled. "We all do baby, your Mama, Your aunties, we all have puzzle pieces." I nodded and she hugged me. Mama smiled at Mami lovingly and stared at her while Grandma Sinu watched Mami proudly. That night we all fell asleep in the same room. Mani and Dinah sharing kisses and loving looks while Mami sat with me on her lap and an empty space between Ally and us, me telling her that Mama was sitting there as we watched the movie. Grandma sat behind Mami, Mama, and I as we watched the movie and we all fell asleep on the floor in a somewhat doggie pile.
