The Witches of Weston

The Littlest Nayos

 Everything settled down  after Alek's departure with our group  jollier than before with Sarah's return. Whatever the man brought with him was gone. The despair vanish and knowing the rightful people responsible for Weston's downfall. Are now in custody or dead made our life a little bit brighter.

"Bear Claw I want to start work on your road as soon as possible"  Louis insisted shaking  the Tekla chief's hand.

"Thank you and because of you my tribe is starting to accept changes in our ways. We have decided to open our trade to new cities and lands to expand its reach." At his announcement Bear Claw was swarmed by Jacob and Malcolm discussing their kingdoms as new options.

My friends and I sat down to talk when the tent flap busted open scaring all of us to our feet but Laura. She only smiled as a little Native boy about six years old came running into the tent with Jordan. Around both boys were dogs nipping at their heels and sea gulls flying in the small tent. Shielding my head from the birds I noticed all the animals were focus on the Native child as he played with them. I could hear horses from outside getting restless and shouting. "What is going on" said James shielding his head from the birds?

"It's nothing to worry  about just a normal day with us" declared Jonah grinning as James and a few other's at their nervousness at the animals around them.

Rachel moved to Jordan as a sea gull landed on his shoulder. The little wizard didn't seem to notice playing with the other child. Rachel's eyes got bigger as she smiled but couldn't hide her concern. "Jordan why are these animals following you and your new friend "shooing the bird off his shoulders.

"Navarro is doing it" Jordan  said pointing with his finger at the Native boy. Looking at the child I could see he was several inches shorter than Jordan but around the same age. He had light olive skin and long dark hair that went to his chin. A chubby face of youth and surprising blue eyes that light up his dark features. Those eyes were a light blue like the ocean and made his face almost angelic to look at.

"Navarro is gifted with the ability to control animals around him" said Cole explaining Jordan's words.

"That explains all the birds and dogs" I mumbled watching Navarro as the child ran up to Laura for a hug.

"A wizard with the talent to control animals that is amazing" said David all but studying the child hugging Laura.

"Navarro has another gift more grander "Jonah hinted almost grinning.  And David looked eager to discover Laura's uncle meaning.

"What is it." David asked practically touching the now nervous child. It seems the more eyes that became focus on him the more Navarro seems shier. Letting go of Laura Navarro stared at all of them as his fear was easy to see. Seeing that I felt sorry for the child who was obviously afraid with all this attention. I moved to comfort him when tears formed in his blue eyes. Turning away from everyone Navarro shimmered in a blue light. The light was beautiful making him  set on fire as it burst consuming the room. It was overwhelming making us shut our eyes at the brightness. I felt like it lasted for seconds when I sensed the magic retreat. I opened my eyes to the spot the boy was but Navarro was gone.

"Where did he go" questioned Malcolm  scanning the room for the child.

"He was just right there then vanished with magic I never seen anything like that." David declared dumbfounded as Malcolm looked in the tent for Navarro. Laughing in the tent filled the room as Laura, Cole and Jonah were near tears. I looked at Laura annoyed at my friend's hysterics at the boy's disappearance.

"Laura why are you laughing Navarro is gone" Sarah pointed out to our friend. 

"He isn't gone but in the exact same spot" Laura answered wiping her eyes. Going to the place Navarro disappeared Laura kneeled." Navarro reappear these people were just curious no reason to be shy".
