Eve and the Legion

Part Nine

It was a week after my training with Ashley and I had been letting everything he said sink in. I knew I had to follow my heart but I didn’t know how. Today was to be the day I finally met the prophet, the most important one. Maybe he could tell me what I have to do. I slept for a few hours but I didn’t care how tired I was because I knew it was finally time. When it was time for me to meet the prophet he wasn’t in the place I had met the other mentors. Silver led me through the desert and far away from the tent. Soon after the tent was no longer in view I saw a large building with a symbol on it. The symbol seemed to be an evil symbol. Silver began to pick up her pace and I followed quickly behind. Finally after what seemed like hours we came to a tent that was much like ours but much larger. Silver opened the flap slowly and gestured for me to go in. “Aren’t you going to come with me?” I asked her and she shook her head. “It is you that needs to learn, not me.” I slowly walked into the tent but it seemed empty until a man seemed to appear out of nowhere. After looking closer at the man I discovered that it was Andy. Honestly I wasn’t surprised considering my other mentors were the other members of the band. I slowly stepped forward but he put his hand out for me to stop so I did. “I’ve waited a long time to see you.” He said in his deep voice. “I could say the same thing” I said softly “are you going to tell me what the others wouldn’t?” I asked and he took his seat in a small wooden chair. “Have a seat, Eve.” I looked around and saw another wooden chair so I sat. “There is nothing that I can tell you that you don’t already know but I can provide you with help. I can not tell you what to do and I am sure one of your teachers has already told you that. You are strong at heart and you simply need to unlock your full potential. I’m sure another one of your teachers has told you that you are what is keeping the legion from falling. I can not tell you anything your other teachers haven’t already but I can help you put the pieces together.” He picked up a stone and held it in his hand. “You are very important, you already know that. All you need to do is believe that you can save the legion and then make it happen.”
