THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden FORTY-FIFTH CHAPTER:
---Merida’s POV---I wasn’t sure how to handle everything. I thought I was good at handling what life threw at me but then again when did I ever image having an alien for a father or that everyone I cared for was supernatural. I really was going to lose a screw if I didn’t short this all out. Sitting at the desk in my new room, I turned on the lamp and grabbed one of the many notebooks and a pen as I thought about today’s events.Deciding that bullet points would be best, I started with the first…1) – Chad busted his head this morning and was taken to the hospital. Though it only happened because he learned I had a new parent, dad.A. Plus Mrs. Blanchard, the newly nicknamed Hurricane teacher, is learning how to be silent. *It’s shut your…**NADIA, please watch your words. Others can hear you here!!* I screeched only to quiet down as I didn’t what to disturb my dad or Crispin.2) – My dad is from another planet or was born in space. I’m not totally sure, as there was a lot to learn t

---Zander’s POV---“Hey Zan, did you lock the front door?” Ma asked after cleaning the last table. Switching the burners off and putting lids on the pot and pan, I let the food simmer, as I take the keys out to Ma. “Zan don’t come out here!”Hearing the tension in her voice and the fact she was warning me, let me know something happened. Moving quickly, I snatched up the butcher knife and tucked it in my pants then grabbed the keys before leaving the kitchen. Stepping out I observed the situation and made a hutch.“Hello fellas, I’m sorry but we just closed.” I say as I moved to the first break in the bar. “Though I do have some leftovers simmering on the stove if you want that.” The two guys standing at the entrance with guns changed their stance so instead, they were pointing those guns at me.“Zan, I told you to stay in the kitchen!” Ma criticizes me as she sits at the closest stool as she was bone tired and didn’t what to deal with this.“Yes Ma, I heard you but I just couldn’t le

---Merida’s POV---The next morning, I was the last to wake up. Though RJ had a plate of eggs and hashbrowns waiting for me when I made it downstairs. I could see Mi and Lu as well as Terry in the living room on phones talking with their families. I didn’t ask where Ericson or my dad were as they most likely were still helping clean up the mess after the attack. Though I did wonder where Crispin, Sarah, and Jenn were.“RJ did Jenn go back to her family this morning or is she somewhere around here?” I asked when I was done, and he came back with my second glass of milk.“I think she’s in the gym with Sarah and Crispin is upstairs. Though you didn’t ask I think you need to speak with him. As his feelings were hurt on how you ignored him yesterday.” RJ explained as he sat next to me.“I’m sorry should my attention be on him instead of my father or everyone else who has put themselves in danger for me. Or what about all those poor souls that got hurt because of me?” I asked as I drank my

Before Nadia could answer I felt my mind drifting away. Something was happening and getting scared I reached out for Crispin.~(XXX)~ (^_-) ~(XXX)~Feeling him beneath my fingertips I pulled his head back. Then seeing the distance between us, I pushed him away then rolled off the bed. Getting to my feet I ran to the door, only he caught me and dragged me back to the bed.That’s when I noticed the room. There was a fire going on in the fireplace and it was made of stone instead of gray marble, wait was there a fireplace in the room. Looking around I see the four-poster bed, only it has curtains on it and the windows looked different, they should be French doors and a window just at the end of the bed, but now their windows, smaller but four of them. Looking at the other wall I see the furniture. It’s different. That’s when I notice the mirror, the thick ornate mirror next to the hard wooden dresser.The mirror alone is not what got my attention, it was the girl in Crispin’s arms. It wa

---Miguel’s POV---Watching Meri walked up the stairs, I wondered where she was going. I really didn’t like her being alone right now. For a lot could happen, especially a reminisce. Though I know Crispin can’t wait for her to remember, for it tightens their relationship even though it will confuse her. *I know Crispin wants to be her everything, but I really don’t think he is. In fact, I think he holds her back and makes her an easier target.*“Miguel! Earth to Miguel!” my sister Valeria screams, as she gets my attention. I almost forgot I was speaking with my sister.“Sorry Ria, I’m just got a lot on my mind.” I say as I walk to kitchen to get a drink, only I’m surprised to see RJ heading my way with a tray full of drinks. Nodding to him, I grab one as I settle on the steps. “How’s dad holding up? Is he still staying at the house?”“Yeah, he is. Though now that you aren’t here, mom went to stay with him.” Valeria says.“WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE’S AT THE HOUSE?” I scream as I slam the gl
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden FIFTIETH CHAPTER:
---Merida’s POV---Oh lord, could the floor just open up and swallow me whole. *Why, oh why did I have to have a reminisce of that and how does Mi know?*“Meri, I know what happened given I was there and had to deal with the fallout.” Mi explained from his position on the floor. “Though Nixie was like that. I had to clean up a lot of her messes. She just couldn't do what was expected of her or act like a normal girl of that time. Not that she was a normal girl of that era!”“What in the world are you talking about Mi? Who is Nixie?” Terry asks as he picked up the frame of the floor and looked at it. “I mean this does look like Meri but clearly this is not. Right!”“Brother, my poor twin brother. A lot is going on and one of those is that…” Lu explains as she dances to him and snatches the frame and then waves it around as to emphasize her next words, “…this is in fact Meri but a past version of Merida.”Walking past them all I leave the room and escape to mine. Only I’m not alone. I s

---Ericson’s POV--- “My liege! My liege needs me. You are leaving her alone with those dogs. Please, we need to go back. MY LIEGE!” Crispin keeps saying as he fights to go back to his room. “Crispin stop!” RJ said as we struggled to get him down the stairs and to one of the holding cells in the basement. “Crispin! Yo man stop fighting us.” “RJ save your words he can’t hear us.” My king says coming up behind us. I was surprised to see him with us and not tending to Merida. She looked shaken up by what happened. Plus, it seemed she had reminisced, given she was asking about Nixie. “My king is Merida, ok?” I ask after shoving Crispin in and shutting the door before he can whirl around and escape. “Eric I’m needed here for the moment. But yes, Merida is fine. Miguel is doing his job and helping with that. But I need to fix this before we lose him.” My king explains as he points to Crispin. I knew something was wrong. C

---Zander’s POV--- The last of our lunch rush had left and I had just finished cleaning up and putting away the ingredients. Sighing, I grabbed the empty dish pan to collect the other dishes as I stepped out and looked for Ma. “So, about my earlier suggestion…” I started only to get hit with a rag in the chest, which luckily landed in the dish pan. Putting it on the counter, I grabbed the rag and started wiping down the counter. Looking up I came face to face with an angry Ma. “Zan, you have proven a capable worker and a good cook, but how can you ask this?” she demands as she settles in the closet booth. “I agreed to last night but now this! Zan how can you trust them, after what they did?” she asks me. “Because in truth they really didn’t do anything.” Rasing my hand as she goes to once again remind me of the guns, which were securely locked in the safe in the office right at this moment. “Yes, they pointed guns at us and d

Swallowing down the saliva that suddenly spawned in my mouth, I cleared my throat before explaining myself, “I have been practicing how to put up a block for the past month, but the nightmares have been going on for the past year or so…” “Ever since I left!” Jenn added as she moved to the sit next to me. Grabbing my hand, she squeezed it. I can see she wants to apologize, but it’s not her fault and plus I needed to learn how to deal with them. Mi sits back down but across from me and reaches across the table to add his hand to ours. His touch gives me strength so I can continue talking. “Jenn, I don’t remember what it was like before you came into my life, but I don’t wake up in a fit or screaming or crying. I just slept through them and woke up the next day wondering about them. I know they aren’t all the same, but they really don’t scare me. It’s like they are a film I am remembering but not completely getting.” I said as I squeezed her hand back
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden FIFTIETH-NINTH CHAPTER:
---Merida’s POV--- Sitting there I just watched as Mi bounced his head on the table, I just worked on Jenn’s words. It was more than I thought. I had learned that shifters tend to run in packs as a way to strengthen themselves and protect their loved ones. Though if a trouble shifter causes issues in the pack, then they are kicked out and left to wander alone. Thus, making them rogues and any person that follows them. So, a promise of a new pack, where they are forgiven is too much to turn down, even a condition like causing panic in another. But then again would they go so far as to kill shifters just to join a new pack that hasn’t been established. *Wait has the pack even been formed?* “Jenn where is this pack set to be established?” I asked, causing everyone to halt in their movement and stare at me. “I’m sorry but no new pack has been recognized in this area and with my dad here. Won’t the leader or alpha have to approach my dad to b

---Miguel’s POV--- I would say life has calmed down these past two days, but I would need a base line to compare to our everyday life. But I can say we got into a routine that worked better than before. I know Mr. Bell has a lot of knowledge and experience when assisting someone with understanding their powers or teaching others of our world but Meri is not like anyone. I can’t explain but Meri does understand everything she learns but she still questions as if the knowledge she has is different than what she learned. Not that she remembers what she knows. But I am happy that I can openly help Meri now and not sneak behind everyone’s back. As Mr. Bell didn’t want to overwhelm her and thought one on one would be good for her. As well as judge what abilities she had and see about getting them under control. I wasn’t sure if any had surfaced but then again Nadia was present in her head. And we didn’t want her to get control or act out any more than she

~(;P)~ Nixie’s memories ~(d:)~ “… are you ok?” came his soothing voice which had me swooning in awe. How could someone be exactly my dream angel. Helping me to a sitting position, my sister falls into my lap as she cries onto my shoulder. Oh, shit she saw uncle hitting me, I have been hiding that for years. I don’t want her to lose all connections to our parents like I have. “Anneliesa I’m ok! Remember your sister is strong.” I smiled at her as she looked to me. “Now dry those tears and say hello to our guest.” I say as I waved at my dream angel and introduced myself. “I’m Nixie Klein and this is Anneliesa Klein. Sorry about all this but welcome to our adobe.” I said, getting to my feet and looking around. Stepping back as I took in the disarray, I was astonished to see the magistrate, my uncle as well as Mr. Boem and his son being restrained. I don’t recognize the soldiers or even remember them from before I arrived. *Where did all thes

“Wait I knew what that is!” I say after a moment. “Armed Ladies are the ladies that serve princesses or the council females. They serve both as guards and advisors, as well as representative for their lady when she is unable to be present.” After speaking a thought hit me. “But I am neither a princess nor a council female, so how can I have Armed Ladies. Plus, I have many questions about the Armed Guard as well.” “Well technically yes you are neither but don’t forget that Armed Ladies can be appointed if a lady has proven to be exceptional. Then again given your inexperience in our world and that it has yet to be proven your standing, it is not unheard for Armed Ladies to be appointed to you. Though they are Armed Ladies of established Ladies, not first timers.” Jen answers as she perches on the last sofa. “And I would love to be appointed but we need a Council Elder to sign off and not just the Kings.” “If I can become an Armed Lady and I can stay

---Merida’s POV--- *Yeah I made a mistake!* I thought as I looked at everyone. I do remember them all telling me to stop. But Leo was so cute and really wanted a belly rub. He told me how bored he was just walking the perimeter and that his partner Greg was too strict. “Sorry dad but Leo looked so fluffy and cute. Please he was pleading for a belly rub!” I said as I looked at my dad. He just smiled at me and patted my back. “OK sweetie I understand but let’s not pet Leo while he is working. I can ask Greg to stop by after his shift and give you time with Leo away from the others. But please don’t do that or show that you understand our War cats or others might see it as a weakness.” my dad says as he pulls me in for a hug. “Can you explain what a War cat is? I understand that Leo is one, but how is he any different from a lion?” I asked as we walked back to the house. “Yeah, I’m curious too! Though I wish I could join Meri in

---Sarah’s POV--- It’s been a month since Crispin acted like a fool and tried to attack Meri with kisses or something. For it took the entire day to break whatever trance or hold Meri put him in or whatever it was. Though once he was free, he asked about Meri then clammed up and refused to talk. Though from what Meri had explained before lunch and how the king responded to my intel told me that it was Meri’s doing or power. I tried to talk with Meri over the next few weeks but once her teacher caught wind of it, he shut it down. I had no problem with it, but I did wish Mr. Bell would look in to it. Though I think the king was the one to shut it down. As I thought of the talk we had weeks back. ~ (^_^) ~ Two weeks ago ~ (^_^) ~ “Sarah, can we talk?” Mr. Bell asked me after his session with Meri. She was focused on the book he gave her to read. Nodding yes, we walked out of the study and down the hall a ways. “Sarah, I know you

---Merida’s POV--- Learning about a new civilization wasn’t hard but hearing about how your ancestors are the reason for the way the world is today, is crazy! I can’t stop thinking about how scared my grandmother was when she decided to leave her home planet for a place that was out there but never seen by any living person she knew. Then again it was crazy to learn that she did this on the word of some being. Though not just any being but the soul/ essence/ spirit of her home world Crustia. On top of that she was all alone. Her uncle the king had just died on the battlefield and her cousins, the next in line, and her aunt were lost in the destruction of the palace a few days later. *Yeah my grandmother wasn’t even in line for the throne, especially since she was so young and an orphan.* I can’t even imagine what she was going through after maybe just getting over losing her parents and now her uncle and his family are gone. Plus, all th
