Daughter of the Damned Heartstaff
***At the Marine Tribe in Chemora - Queen Asa's palace***She could not close her eyes. Something inside her was telling her that the powers within her son had awakened. Yet she had no way to confirm. They had the powers which no other tribe in Chemora had. They could talk to the ocean. The waves brought news for them , from the future, past and present. Queen Asa walked towards the window, watching the waves crash against the rocks, helpless. " I was once like you. " She was talking with the foams left behind, " powerless and unknown, till I thought of taking matters into my own hand. "An eerie giggle rang behind her as she jumped and turned back. " Are you talking about your marriage? " The voice echoed through the emptiness making her toe curl. She knew exactly the source. She knew where the voice was coming from. She tip-toed towards the full size mirror. It had a black cloth over it and Asa stood right in front of it and said, " I thought you couldn't talk with this cloth

It must have been hours. Mira and Kian were still going in circles, looking for a way out. They had no way of knowing that they did not come to that spot by themselves. They were brought there. All four of them. Because they had met each other. All Chemorian had one single power source and it was intricately related with The Heartstaff. The rise of the Sountern Star was near. Every tribe was in fear. They had no other option but to send their best new-borns to planet Earth, with a filament of the Heartstaff's resonance, buried deep inside their hearts. It would act as the alarm for their awakening. It would draw them towards their mission. Braze and Xen had decided to meet atop those mountains as well, to know more about each other and share more of their secrets. The mountain was something they both agreed on but Braze seemed to reach early. He had skipped school, completely unaware that the entire class was headed there. Little did they know that things would get complicate

" Kian, I think we are going in circles. I know it seems like every way looks the same but I can guarantee you, I have seen this tree with a single red flower, now for the fifth time. We are lost. "Mira sat on the muddy, water logged path with a thud, splashing Kian as well. " We were already lost Mira. Why are you suddenly getting so worked up? Don't worry. I am here to protect you. I will fight the wolf if it comes to bother you again. "He was gearing up into a Muay Thai fighting stance but then Mira's stomach growled and she looked up at him with apologetic eyes. " I'm sorry, but it's difficult for me to control my hunger. I couldn't even find any edible looking fruits. What kind of foliage do they have in this place? It's all decorative , useless. "Kian nodded his head. " Makes sense why the place doesn't have any population. Never mind. Get up. Climb on my back. I will carry you around until we find some food. "Kian bent low and extended his hand. Mira looked at him with

" So, this guy was after Braze and Braze is a wolf and Braze chewed a little bit of his jacket along with his flesh and then you knocked him off. "Kian was asking this for the third time not really expecting Xen to answer. " What was it that he could do, again? " Xen turned his attention towards Mira, who was sitting beside Braze, trying to clean his wounds with her handkerchief that she had dipped in the little pond. " He can jump real high and glide. " Mira answered as nonchalant as if it was an everyday occurrence. " What about you? " Kian asked Xen. " His hand transforms. I saw it the to her night in my dream... " and then she realised the absurdity of the statement. She looked at Xen, her eyes gleaming with the new filled of realisation. " You can summon people too. Can't you? That night, it was you who whisked me off to that place. Wasn't it! Or was it me? "Mira patted herself down as if checking for some superpower that could have been hidden in her pocket. Xen smirked

" Thank you Ma'am... " Stella turned to wave their savoir angel goodbye as soon as they saw the base camp and one teacher waiting with a few more students. But the moment they turned their head, she was gone, with no trace. They looked at each other but the joy of being saved was too great. They ran to meet the others as the teacher checked on them. One by one students and teachers kept coming out. Some individually limping and bleeding, perhaps from steep falls or slides , and some came out soaked and muddy, hurdled in mini groups. It was almost night so they immediately started a head count before trekking back to the ground, where the buses were. " Kian... Kian is missing.... I couldn't find him... "Betty had come out of the forest with the earliest groups but she had gone back again to look for Kian. She was the last one to come out again when the head count started and crashing on the ground, yelled with her hands up. " Mira is missing as well..." Razzak came forward with wo

" Aahhhh... "Braze moaned as his eyes slowly opened. " Mira??? " He extended his hands to touch her skirt but then he looked around and realised the reality. He had passed out naked and was clad in borrowed underwear. They were stinky. " Come on... Speak up. How long are you going to pretend to not wake up? I know you can hear me. " Xen was at it again. George was handing upside down now. It was Xen's doing and he would not take a 'no' for an answer. George had not spoken a single word. Neither did he open his eyes. " Xen, I am pretty sure he was not the guy I told you about. " Kian pleaded. " I am sure... I think he is from amongst the Watchers... you know... the good guys... The ones with devilish eyes ran away the moment the ones called Watchers arrived. "Xen looked at Mira suspiciously. " How do you know so much? "" A Watcher lady told me... she was rude and said everybody was going to forget everything... which really happened but Kian and I seem to remember. " Mira expl

At Chemora- present day" Sitara, it's time. Help me with the submersion. "Kilian was standing inside what looked like a very big and deep bath tub. It was gradually filling up from the bottom. But the liquid was not water. It was red. Red like blood. " Are you sure? I mean can we completely trust the source? "She looked hesitant. " There has never been a hundred percent when it comes to 'First-times'. We have to take the risk. "He said as she helped him get his clothes off. " But your health... " She tried to protest but Kilian put a hand on her lips. " If they have gathered indeed and are all close to the source, my absence could mean someone else taking this golden opportunity. I can risk my life but I cannot risk that. I have a promise to keep Sitara. "The liquid had almost filled up to the brim. And he slowly lowered himself, completely naked in the tub. " I might need your assistance. Try to keep in touch. "He smiled at Sitara as she watched him go down under the surf

Mira's POV" Ok cool. I get it that these three are ... gifted aliens... but me? What about me? I don't have anything special about me. "Uncle Kilian, as he claimed to be, burst out into a hilarious laughter. " Nothing special about you my girl? You have no idea who you are... Ok, let me give you a quick demo.. who is your closest one amongst these three? "I am sure the College Entrance exams had easier questions than this. What was my answer supposed to be? " Never mind, anyone will do... "He tossed Kian and Xen on either wall with what seemed like a rope made of light that automatically tied them up. He pinned the Watcher guy on the floor with something similar and flung me far away from them and hung me upside down . " Try to stop me if you can Mira... " He turned towards Braze, who was all alone, crouched on the ground. " No hard feelings boy but this has to be done, " I don't know what I was excepting but I wasn't prepared at all for what actually happened. Kilian, my uncl

Several Years Later At Chemora -"Baba! Baba! Who is that girl? Why does she have a star over her head! ""Sssshhhh! " The little girl asking the question was instantly hushed. " Don't you know dear that we don't talk about her? Not in the night. No, my little darling. Never. I will tell you all about her in the morning. Alright? "But the little girl looked very angry at her mother. " But why mother, was she not the one who brought peace and tranquility over our planet? " Her tiny voice was fierce and strong. The woman quickly pulled the blinds around her place and closed her windows. The little girl had been looking at a statue at the Central Square. It was snowing in Chemora and the snow made the star above her head absolutely white. " I will tell you the story. I will tell you the story again. But not during the hours of the darkness, my little angel. It is not safe. You know what's going on. " The mother begged. Almost terrified. " Alright. I will wait till the sunrise. Yo
Daughter of the Damned Birth of star
Braze had his eyes glued on the telescope There was something happening amongst the stars. Something that he had been anticipating but could not really fathom. He was yet to complete his research papers. They were due for submission within a month . He has been lost in stargazing lately. Particularly gazing at a distant star. His phone rang breaking his undivided concentration. " You must come over at the observatory , Braze. Something phenomenal is happening with your star. You cannot miss it. The telescope at your place is not strong enough to capture this miracle. " What is it? "Braze asked as his breath picked up pace. Even though he could not properly see what was happening, he knew something was different about his star that day. Braze hit the brake hard as the voice from the other end hung up after telling him that, " It was the birth of a star. "***From the depths of the cosmic cradle, a celestial ballet unfolds as if orchestrated by unseen hands. Through the lens
Daughter of the Damned Start of a New Dawn
" It's time to say our goodbyes, my sweethearts. Let's meet again in the next life. "The boys opened their eyes as they sat up with a jolt. They were under the stars. There was darkness everywhere around them. They were on top of the highest peak around. Their clothes were around as they sat there and looked up at the twinkling wonders above their heads. A particularly bright star shone so bright that it made every around them as clear as the moonlight. They looked at each other and then they looked up above. They could not understand what they were doing. They immediately ran towards their clothes when the realisation of their n*kedness finally hit them. " Do we know each other? "One of them asked as the others looked at him with more confusion. " I think we do. Are we waiting for someone? " Another one asked. " I think we are here because of that. " The third one pointed at the Southern Star. " My knights! "They turned around as they heard a voice. " That's her. She i
Daughter of the Damned Mating in the Stars
" Why are we back here? "Xen called out in astonishment as they found themselves inside the enclosure from where they had retrieved the Heartstaff. " Hello boys! Hi Mira! Thank goodness, you didn't keep me waiting. "Razzak's voice startled them. "Why is she here? " They asked in unison immediately coming in front of Mira like a shield. Razzak laughed as she shoved them to the side and went ahead and hugged Mira, who reciprocated the action with a smile. " Thank you for giving my memories back. "Mira was looking extremely refreshed and strong. The fear and unease that was darkening her face was gone. " You don't need to thank me. I took my chance. I always wanted to know more about you. Stella made it possible. I went against my ancestors in stealing that stone for you. I but all my eggs in your basket Mira. And I am glad that I did. "She smiled. " I will leave the rest to you. I think you might need some privacy. "She hugged Mira once more and winked, before leaving. " Wha
Daughter of the Damned The final countdown
" So you figured a way around, huh? Do you think the power of the Heartstaff can keep me away? It literally runs in my veins as well. "Mira was in the centre and the boys were around her. She clung to her father, scared, afraid, unable to understand why the universe turned so violent ? And it seemed like it all revolved around her. " Attack! " One blow after another sent tremors all around as the boys fought hard to maintain their defense. Even with their collective effort, it was difficult for them to counter so many successive attacks. " Mira, you can end this! " Kilian yelled from the other side. " All that I ask from you is to come back with me. Everything can be like it used to be. Just come back to me Mira. "Mira grabbed her father's shirt tighter as one blast sent Kian reeling behind. Calex kissed Mira on her forehead, " Always listen to your heart. " And without another word, he darted off towards the Kakarian formation. " You fool! " Kilian personally sent one blast af
Daughter of the Damned Scattered incidents
Earth had become a ragging battle field. There was news about random blasts and terrorist attacks all over the news. There was a frenzy everywhere as people ran indoors to hide inside their homes and basements. The Watcher Headquarters was going crazy, trying to handle calls from all the Presidents and Prime Ministers. It was true that they were answerable but the situation had blown out of proportion. They had no other choice than to call back their very best. Rozelle, George and Robert, walked back in the building, matching their steps. "Never thought that I would be back in business! " George stretched as the humanoids greeted them with coffee mugs. " Who would have thought that Gala had developed such a wonderful anecdote. She is talented, isn't she? " Rozelle read Robert's expression closely as she asked the question. Robert knew that he was in a tricky situation. He had to praise Layla for her credibility but he had to do so without making his lover jealous. " Life, my d
Daughter of the Damned Their power in their unity
" Why did we stop here? We should be running. This place is not very far from Guardian Yvonne's place. Kilian can catch up at any moment. "Xen yelled, paranoid. " Wait! Martha is relaying a message. We wouldn't get it if we crossed this perimeter. Ssshhh! Listen carefully, it's Yvonne. Is he... is he talking with Kilian? "Calex looked concerned. There was absolute silence as they listened to their conversation carefully with the help of the connection that Martha had created -" There was a time when I used to admire my sister. I used to look up to her. But then they began to shower unnecessary praises on her while all she did was sneak out to meet with men. Like I didn't know what she was doing in the name of training for strength. "" What rubbish! Kiara never saw any men apart from Calex.And your tribe ostracized her for that. " Yvonne tried to counter Kilian's claim. " She did a lot more than that. I saw her myself with Netera... "" You cannot be serious.... " Yvonne fumed
Daughter of the Damned Kilian
" We will talk about this when you get back! " Kian's mother had just left when the front door almost blasted open. " He is coming. Where is Mira?"It was Xen. It seemed like he had run a million miles but he went straight for her, scooping her off the ground and kissing her in front of them all. " We need to get her out of here. Kilian is on his way. He is coming with his army. "Xen turned around at Braze and Kian, as if nothing had happened." How did you know that we were here? "" How does Kilian know? "Came the dual accusation. Xen signed and slowly unbuttoned his shirt and pointed towards his chest. " I did not know that we could still use this but when Kilian was chasing after my ship and wrecked it into half, my instinct kicked in. I could feel the two of you. And the power of the Staff manifested from my chest. "Xen pounced over the two of them and grabbed them into a bear hug with both his hands. " I missed you both! "His words came out of nowhere. " So it was you
Daughter of the Damned Moving forward
They had been sitting beside each other for hours but neither had been talking. Finally Calex took the initiative to break the ice. " I am sure you father would understand. "Braze was startled by his statement. " Love makes us do all sorts for stupid things, " Calex continued as Braze looked at him with confused eyes. " I hope you are not being too hard on yourself. Guilt is a very dangerous weapon. It keeps cutting you from the inside while nobody get to know how you are exactly feeling. " He tried to smile at Braze and that definitely made Braze feel more awkward. " You know, I used to love Kiara, Mira's mother, just like you love Mira. " Braze could tell that he was putting real effort into that conversation. His voice was shaky and his eyes were turning red as he spoke. The topic was sensitive, yet he was willing to make things clear. Guardian Yvonne had gone to look for Kian and the Marine Queen while Mira was sleeping in her room. " I was in love with Kiara before I was
