      Previously on THE HELENA.

      Nine months later mother nature conceived a baby girl and named her Helena but she was scared that someone will recognize the name but she doesn't care, she said the humans has always wanted an Helena now the get one.
      Helena skin is sparkling white as snow, so smooth like wool, with her long blond hair and an enchanting smile.
      Mother nature could not bring her self to let her go but she had to, so made an amulet with her name written on it and hung it around her neck and put her to sleep in a small ice cot she made.

     Now Christi is tired of living and went into the woods to kill herself since she has no more reason to live. she suddenly she had a voice then she stopped as soon as turned around to see what was behind her, in fright she wanted to run away from mother nature but mother nature stopped her.
"Who are you" Christi asked. With silence hovering them mother nature broke asking "don't you know me Christi" she asked. Christi gasped moving towards mother nature in tears,"belle my child is that you" stretching to touch her face."its a long story  Christi, am mother nature the source of nature, trees,flowers and life itself but I got struck by your king five hundred years ago,which weakened me but months before now your sister's child I mean your daughter came running to way I lay, she was being chased by some men and was raped I couldn't do anything to save but as soon as her blood where on of the men hit flowed and touched me I posed her body and killed the men by freezing them. So now I posses her body, do you understand." Mother nature said but Christi stood there confused, "if you don't still get it, do you remember those stories they tell you about doom" she asked and Christi lightened up and said "yes, I do wait you are doom, and I thought they were all myth" moving back "don't be scared of me Christi well they are all true but its not entirely my fault, your kingdom was one of the blessed kingdoms in all realms you ones lived with the mermaids and fairies with other mystical creatures, but I unknowingly caused the deep freeze because of one persons ungratefulness." She concluded "so what those that have to do with me" Christi asked then mother nature brought out Helena and mother nature let out a sigh "is that an Helen no way it can't be yo....you can't possibly" shuttering with her word."yes its an Helene the first human Helena and I bore her myself from my womb and you must know this (handing Helen to Christi) she's the only one that can save the whole kingdoms and give me back my true form" she said "so what do you want I have nothing to offer am poor and can't train her am but a poor widow" Christi said with tears in her eyes " don't cry Christi I have found you worthy and I want you to raise her as your own as if she is your daughter and tell her when the time is right" mother nature said "Me but how  what can I offer a child that has the power to transform, create, and heal and now by birth has other powers attached which am sure you know not of (mother nature agreeing to her with a nod) I have nothing" Christi said " you do have something to give her that I can't a mothers love ,care and a family I have to go Christi so that I won't cause further harm the more I stay the cold it will get bye Christi" and she looks towards Helena removes a necklace from her neck and placed it around Helen's neck and kissed her forehead and left, and with gratitude Christi took Helena back to the kingdom.

      Christi raises Helena as her own child and no one suspects or even ask where and how she got the child because they all knew the pain Christi passed through losing her husband her son and her dead sister's daughter in a month so they just let her be with the only happiness she has which is Helena but some were wondering why she would name a lovely child after a mystical being which is believed to be a myth but they still didn't bother.
      Helena grows in beauty, stature, favour and in power as well. Her mother Christi always told her never to use her power outside or even carelessly and she obeyed she could heal anything bring back dead things (animals so far) speak to nature and animals create vegs,fruit and flowers and can even control ice.
      Helena has a best friend named Natalia a daughter to one of her closest neighbor they are about same age and do almost everything together. One day while Natalia was about falling in there backyard Helena used her magic for the first time to create a bed of flowers and Natalia landed on them with a surprised face, Natalia has never seen flowers before real once except paintings because non could grow cause of the ice.
       " ho.....how di..did you how is it possible Helena how did" she stammered "ssh sssh.... Quiet Natalia get up quickly" Helena said dragging her up and she  turned the flowers to snow and drags Natalia to her house to tell her about it. Once the got into the house she locked the door and the windows before going towards Natalia, "so how" Natalia questioned "well I was born this way" she said but Natalia looked at her with a confused face " but we've known each other for eight years now and I have not seen you do magic" she questioned her again "well my mum warned me not to tell anyone even you that's why" Helena explains looking sad "well other things can you do can you show me." Natalia said with a pleading eyes, "OK OK OK just watch and don't make a sound I don't want to get caught by mah or anyone" Helena pleaded and she stretched her hands and created vegs, fruits,flowers and lastly snow. "Wow Helena they are beautiful and fresh" Natalia said touching the flowers and fruits then it disappeared "where did they go" Natalia asked "oops sorry I had to I don't want mah to know or else she'll scold me again"  Helena said
