After Axel came out, his hair still wet but his bruises gone, I turned on my heel and left to get one of the others. They were going to tell us why they needed Axel. When I got to the room, Axel trailing behind me, Tarisa steepled her fingers. "Are you all ready to hear why we needed Axel?"

We murmured a yes.

"Have you ever heard the story of Balam Herim, Light King of the Heavens, Naira Quetzalli, Grey Queen of the Aether, and Baishan Antinaco, Night King of the Earth?"

"No. What is it?"

"The greatest witchangel love triangle ever created. You see, in the beginning, there was one being called Yolotli. Yolotli was lonely. So they created another being, and another, until the earth was populated with people, all in Yolotli's image. Naira Quetzalli was an orphan, she roamed the earth in search of Yolotli. Yolotli was the first witchangel, and Naira was descended from them. Balam was in search of treasure, the son of a thief. Baishan was an assassin with a conscience, who only killed people who were murderers. All three traveled different paths, with harrowing trials, but when they met, it was at the Temple of Unity, the first pythonissam temple. The one in Salem with the inscription. Balam got there first. Yolotli was astounded at how greedy Balam was, and how he could trick anyone into believing he was good. Yolotli made him the Light King of the Heavens, so people would understand that life isn't fair. Naira got there next. Yolotli welcomed their daughter, and unlocked her potential. Then they gave her the highest seat at the table, the Grey Queen of the Aether. The Aether is in everything. Baishan got there last, but was Yolotli's favorite, because even though he killed people, he had a conscience. They made him the Night King of the Earth. They all only met each other in Naira's new palace, resting on the Dual Plain. Naira fell in love with both of them, and both fell in love with her. She died, ascending to Yolotli's home, and soon after, Baishan and Balam joined her, mad with grief. Naira never chose which one as her partner, so she is being reborn in the powers of certain witchangels to continue that until the day she chooses. Axel is believed to be Baishan, the Night King, and we think Stella Jade is Naira, because your powers are the same as hers."

"This is so ridiculous. You're telling me that my parents died because of some stupid prophecy saying that I'm a god?!!" I exclaimed. I stormed out of the room. Tarisa was speechless. "What. Is. Going. On." I heard Axel say as I walked out. I listened to the answer that Tarisa gave him. "You are something called a witchangel, Axel. You will need to come here every day after school." I walked outside and lay on the grass of our front yard. Our first moving day had been intense.
