2024-10-29 19:42:56The light was beginning to peek into the darkened room. Making itself known to the sleeping world inside. Stirring to life and stretching on the smooth satin sheets Lilly opened her eyes to see bright blue eyes staring back at her. Jumping fully awake Lilly became aware of where she was and the lack of clothing she had fallen asleep in. Jerking on the blanket to cover herself she found she was currently wearing Brayden's oversized t-shirt. The one time she was thankful for his height. Looking behind her she found an empty, cool-to-the-touch, bed. Meaning Brayden had been gone for a while.
"He's talking with the lady that came this morning." Hannah chimed in from behind Lilly.
Turning to see Hannah was now sitting on the side of the bed kicking her feet she added. "Mommy said to wait here until you woke up and you would feed me."

Sitting next to the lake was a large willow tree with limbs blowing gently in the breeze. A small bund of flaming red hair was gently mixed in with the green leaves on the willow tree. Humming to herself and rocking a stuffed monkey the child played as if there was no war going on. She had seen more than anyone ever should and was finally returned to her own body. The years in someone else's body had made her wiser but she was still the small child from when her grandfather tried to take her away. Memories of that day are too vivid for her to try and suppress. Her parents joked in the kitchen and told her she could play outside as long as she stayed within the yard. A strange man comes up to her claiming to know her and her parents. Then her mother ran out so fast that she seemed like she was flying. Up to that moment, the girl had not known magic was real, it was just a fun bedtime story her parents told her to get her to sleep at night. They lived s
Uncharted Escape
"So what you're saying is not only is my plaything gone. Her sister is gone as well and the pathetic excuse of a son-in-law is dead?" The annoying voice bellowed his anger into the hall before they fell into the ears of the shaking guards. "Y.. ye... yes my lord." The fear seeped out of the guard's every pore bringing joy to the angry man "Well general what are you planning to do about this?" The man's patience was wearing thin. "Esteban... I mean my lord." Realizing his mistake the general rushed out his plans. "We have captured a seer. This one however can see what has happened instead of what is to come. She offers her services to end this useless rebellion." Slowly stepping back the general reached for the door handle. "Excellent there is one problem
Uncharted Duty
"Hey sleepy gills, you ready to go home?" Claire's voice cooed as if she were speaking to a child. Frank tried sitting up to find something was holding him down. He blinked away the groggy feeling of waking up from much-needed deep sleep. Reaching for his eyes he realized the heavy pressure he felt was indeed holding him in place. Looking down he found the two girls Ivan had just been holding were laying on top of him fast asleep. Frank tried looking around to find Claireor even Ivan but couldn't. They were under a tree in what seemed to be next to a wheat field with a light breeze blowing through the field. The sun looked as if it were about to set but was fighting to continue sharing its blazing heat with the world. Beautiful colors danced and blanketed the sky as if they had been painted across Frank's line of sight. Claire finally stepped into his view sweetly smiling down at him before she stopped in her tracks. Her face quickly turned to something Frank couldn't understand and
Uncharted Privacy
"You mean to tell me that not only have you lost my toy, now twice, but you have also lost the only guard I had left that I trusted enough to become captain?" The fury rolled down the hall to the cells. Esteban stormed toward the last known place of the traitor and the supposed toy. "My lord, I don't understand where they could have gone. I was right outside the door the whole time and suddenly it was too quiet. Before I could open the door they were gone!" The guard tried explaining what happened knowing it was pointless once the lord saw red anyone within striking distance was good as dead. It wasn't numbered days at this point but numbered seconds. "I suggest you stop talking now." Esteban said ripping the door off the cell wall and tossing it to the side. Once inside Esteban could feel a strange aura in the air. Almost like the veil was thinning in this room. He began feeling along the walls to locate the exact location of the leak. Finally, he came upon a light breeze in the cent
Uncharted Welcome Back
As soon as the veil was fully sealed Lilly felt herself sway to the side but fully fall as Brayden was quick to catch her first. She looked into his eyes with a faint smile before using his strength to fully stand and continue with the plan. "As you all know Brayden and I are still stuck as teenagers." She glanced to Brayden who only smirked and shrugged before winking at her. 'There is something seriously wrong with you.' Lilly said while trying to gather her thoughts. 'Like I said before, teenage Lilly is cute. Plus you've got more stamina now.' Brayden said with a straight face as if he weren't just talking about their sex lives in front of their parents. "Anyway, we're going to go back to I guess redo a little growing up. Since Claire is gone we'll need someone to play mom." Lilly says trying her hardest to keep the blood from having a family meeting in her face. "How about we all just go together and then we can keep a closer eye on you?" Jessica suggested, holding onto James. The
Uncharted Another Reunion
"Oh good, you brought some water how sweet of you!" The look of faint worry on Jessica's face began to slowly fade. "Lilly, your mother was just explaining that you two have had a tough time with losing your father recently. I couldn't imagine being a single mother in this crazy world! But I'm sure you're both doing well." Jessica placed her hand on James' while she spoke, it was a sincere gesture only bringing Brayden to choke on his water. Everyone turned to look at him before he waved everyone away like nothing to worry about. "Just a small piece of ice." Brayden said through coughs, never taking his eyes from his parent's hands. "I'm fine sorry to interrupt." "Here, come with me." Lilly said pulling Brayden up to a standing position and down the hall to her old bedroom. She turned to see if anyone was watching hoping to have a private conversation, only to find before she could fully face Brayden he had her pinned to the wall in a tight embrace. 'I missed you!' He pushed into he
Uncharted Hiding Place
Maybe that's really why your throat is so dry? Lilly said leaning against the wall next to Brayden. Brayden scoffed then inhaled another drag. Pretending to ignore Lilly. "You know you can ignore me all you want but we both know I'm not going anywhere." Lilly said leaning forward and looking into Brayden's eyes. "That is a threat and a promise." "That is the only thing I can depend on." Brayden said looking down and putting out the cigarette before flipping them both and caging Lilly between himself and the wall. "You stink." Lilly said pretending to cough before smiling up at Brayden and laughing. Brayden shrugged then stated, "Never stopped you before." He leaned in within inches of Lilly's face almost breathing each other's air. "Well if we're where I think we are you're technically too young to be smoking." Lilly said smirking up at Brayden and removing the remaining cigarettes from his back pocket. "Well, technically I'm older than most of the cigarettes on this earth." Brayden
Uncharted Faults
"Me?" Lilly whispers out, looking away and trying to fight back the tears from the horrible memory. "Yes, I'm so sorry I didn't get there time!" Brayden says pressing his forehead more into hers. He almost sounds broken or defeated by this statement. "What?" Lilly says moving her eyes to look into Brayden's. He moved his head back enough they could look into each other's eyes effortlessly. "If I had just stuck it through and stayed or if I had just been more patient with you I would have been there. None of it would have happened." Brayden said trying to breathe deeply but not exhale directly into Lilly's face. "This isn't your fault." Lilly tried saying moving her hands up to Brayden's face as he was trying to look away. "You keep saying that." Brayden said shaking his head to remove Lilly's hands that seemed to stay glued in place. "Brayden if you hadn't of gotten there when you did who knows what would have happened? I could have killed him, or anyone within a block at the least.

Uncharted Family Reunion
"I put you in his hell and I am the ONLY one that will ever be able to get you out." The words echoed through Miriam as she came to a stop. She knew that voice had to be Lilly but she couldn’t dare look to see who she was talking to. With a bright flash, everything was slowly fading to the darkness around her and a thicker chill began to fill the air. Crouching down to the ground and attempting to make herself small Miriam attempted to focus on the sounds around her. She could only hear silence, no wind, no birds or animals scurrying along the forest floor. How could such a place exist?“I know you’re out there sweetheart.” Miriam’s entire body shivered from the sweetening voice of her memories, a much simpler time. Refusing to let her emotions take the better of her Miriam chose to burrow herself into a tree. “Daddy will always find you, no matter what.”Miriam wanted to reply to him and state how much she hated him but knew that’s what he wanted. She waited for anything, breathing,
Uncharted Power of Three
Without a word from the group the small group made their way to the barn to continue their conversation. Lilly slowly looked around for Brayden and the girls to ensure Jessica was still with them. “I already linked her and told her what was going on.” James said from behind Lilly as if reading her mind. “Brayden took the girls to get ice cream, we really should hurry I don’t think Claire will last longer than 2 hours. She has a high pain tolerance but I counted 3 contractions only minutes apart while you and Ivan had your stare down.” “Okay, it’s best we get this out of the way anyway.” Lilly said following Ivan and Frank into the barn. She came to find Frank attempting to whisper to Ivan asking what what going on, before James cleared his throat. “I know us coming unannounced kind of puts a damper on your family plans, or unplanned family events, but we need to get this conversation over with in about 30 minutes so you can see your child’s birth.” James said as he made his way to a
Uncharted Securing Plans
"He's not going to be happy with you when he discovers this plan." James says lowly as he catches up to Lilly."He already knows the plan." Lilly says as they make their way out of the field and to a little farmhouse."How does he know the plan?" James asked in total shock."The same way you and Jessica know the plan." Lilly spoke as if they were speaking of the time of day."But Jessica just had the vision this morning?" James said as they came to the farmhouse door and he knocked."Brayden saw this day and conversation happening the day before Nia was born." Lilly said taking in a deep breath. "I've known this day and conversation was going to happen for awhile. However, I think I am going to change part of it and he won't know until after.""Am I allowed to know the change in plan?" James said trying to read Lilly's hints.Before Lilly was able to give a full answer the door opened to a surprised Ivan. "It's early is it not?""I feel the an
Uncharted Reunited Again
Stepping through another blinding portal Brayden finally find his voice just as the wind picked up and started blowing Lilly's hair into his face. "You are going to tell me what's going right?"Lilly laughed as she pulled her hair from Brayden's face while saying, "Would I ever hide anything from you?""Lilly you basically have been since the moment I realized I lost myself, but you knew where everyone was." Brayden could feel his fear seeping in not knowing where exactly Nia was. The fact he had lost everyone for 2 full weeks was beginning to weigh him more than he expected."Son everything will be fine." Jessica said coming forward to pat his arm."Trust in those that you love and all will work out." James said shortly following Jessica to Brayden's side. With those words the wind began to fade and their eyes adjusted to the sun's rays."Of course I trust you all, I'm worried about myself. How could I got 2 weeks not knowing what was going on, and think the fake you
Uncharted Alternating Plans
"Where have you been the last 2 weeks?" Brayden said to Lilly and she only stopped to look around her. The confusion didn't leave Brayden, he was just as confused he thought he was just talking to his grandfather."Where's my mom?" Lilly said, without waiting for an answer she quickly turn to run up the stairs to their apartment."Lilly!" Brayden yelled running after her only to stop at the open door of their apartment. "Lilly, what's gotten..""That's not my mom," Lilly said watching the woman sitting on the couch staring at the blank wall."I know?" Brayden said as if they had already discussed this. But they hadn't, how did he know that wasn't Miriam?"She's in the in-between," Lilly said turning to Brayden holding out the necklace for him to see she was also there. They both stared at the shining metal in her hand before Brayden broke the silence."How?" Brayden asked taking the necklace between his fingers. The only time he has seen this sword is when Lilly uses it in his dreams
Uncharted Dreams?
"Mom!" Lilly yelled back to Miriam every time she heard her mother yell her name. Suddenly the yelling stopped, and everything became too quiet. Nerves were all over the place as Lilly pushed herself through the forest. The familiarity of this darkness was too unreal and seemed too similar to Brayden's most recent dream."There you are." The deep voice from behind Lilly had her freezing in her tracks. Holding what breath was left in her lungs she forced herself to face the voice she had only ever heard in her dreams."Why am I here?" Lilly forced out the moment her eyes locked onto the red glowing eyes before her."Ah right to the point." An evil sneer came across the man's lips as he stops walking a mere 20 feet from her. "Esteban I'm not playing any games, what do you want?" Lilly says reaching for her bracelet only to realize it was not there."Oh come now you really think I would let you bring that in here?" He says smirking before adding, "You really should respect your elders y
Uncharted Inbetween
"Liliana!" Miriam ran frantically into the darkened forest, what just happened? She was just with her daughter and son-in-law and now she's in a forest alone? Frantic thoughts and panic filled her every bone. "Liliana! Brayden!""You won't find them." A low voice just above a whisper blurts out from behind her.Miriam quickly turns only to see more trees in every direction. Her panic must be playing tricks on her, the only way to find her family now is with magic. But if she uses her power it will attract her father to her. Exhaling deeply Miriam continues to trudge through the ever-darkening forest. Soon it will become so dark she will not be able to see the uplifted roots before she trips on them."Want to see why I brought you here?" The voice again feels so much closer, there is no way Miriam only hearing things."Who are you?" Miriam finally stops and just listens without attempting to look for the owner of the voice."Oh, dear Miriam." The voice lets out a sickening laugh before
Uncharted Lost
"Alright fine, I'd just hate for such a pretty thing such as yourself to get hurt." Mark said with a slight wink."Not in this lifetime Mark." Lilly said grabbing onto Brayden's side both to pulling strength and keep him by her side."Well if you ever need to be satisfied I'm in room 206." Mark said licking his lips."Oh trust me if I ever get that desperate I'm better off dead." Lilly said before then watching the color drain from Mark's face.Unable to think of a comeback Mark turned and hurried down the hall to his family's apartment."God the last two weeks he has been on my ass." Brayden said exhaling the air he had been trying to keep in."Why two weeks?" Lilly said releasing his hand and continuing up the stairs."Oh we've been here for two weeks before you guys." Brayden said casually, "It's no biggy I've jumped and landed in the space before you a few times remember?""Right, I just didn't realize it was two weeks." Lilly said faintly
Uncharted Eyes Everywhere
"No matter what you say I will not risk anyone's life," Brayden quickly closed the distance as he spoke. "Especially your life. For something as simple as a pastry, no matter how delicious they maybe.""I get you're trying to be all macho right now, and possibly turn me on but I am actually really upset about the orange rolls." Lilly looked into Brayden's eyes trying to hold in her own laughter at the ridiculous conversation."So you admit that this is turning you on." Brayden asked leaning in closer to Lilly forcing her heart to race."You would take that part out of everything I said and turn it on me." Lilly rolled her eyes trying to hold back the blood from rushing to her face. "My point is they were the first ones Nia got to help me make, ever. I couldn't even try them.""Look I will go out and buy the ingredients right now and we can make some. Maybe the familiar flavor will help my mom's memory." Brayden said looking to the entrance to their hideout.
