PROLOG

I have been putting this book on and off for a while.... Lets hope it stays on this time =) Please leave constructive feedback.

Prolog

There are many things in this world in which we have no idea of. Many of the questions that are asked are answered with myth or, uncertain things with no justification as in how many of these events a cured. Like how the world began, some say it was got, others science but nothing is definite. Now this book won’t tell you of how the world came to be, only how the life began on it. In some time you will understand on how we a human-like race came to be. But for now it’s time to tell the story of retaliation. Not one of this world but, one of another. A story of a gate that closed from one side but lays open to the other a gate that was lost long ago and, lays guarded by the worlds most feared creatures.

 

Many have searched for the gate but none know if they have found it of perished trying to find it. You see legend says that once someone enters the gate he/she will never get out of the world they are trapped in. The human world. This is the legend of the beginning of earth and humans.

 

We all lived in harmony for many years. That was before, now we fight our brother and sisters of the white wing. For they thought we were the ultimate species of all that roamed the universe they traveled between earth and, our nameless home. Trying to dominate all living creatures, one day we began to think lesser of the other beings. Many thought it wrong to overrun their lives. Those who thought we were equal began to rebel against the others. Wars broke out in our cities and on earth killing all things around. To our kind it was dark times. Mates, Brothers, Sisters, Fathers, mothers being separated due to belief. Everyone thought they were on the right side. Population begin to lessen due to death.

 

The rulers of all our kind tended to agree with the rebels. That was when the apposed side began to grow stronger. No one knew why they did until a dreaded day when the king was killed leaving his 3 sons. A new leader had risen on the white winged side, a strong leader and, at his side was one of the 3 sons the middle child Andrew . His power was strong and combined with the new leaders power the pair was almost unbeatable the boy knew the castle like the back of his hand its strengths and.....its weaknesses.

 

The one thing they didn’t expect happened.... The eldest Nathan dammed them to walk the earth; he ripped his brother’s wings from his back and, locked everyone who was on earth at the time to that world. Using too much of his power he weakened and died. Leaving the youngest son Samuel to rule, but when the Nathans's children became of age they were to rule. At the time of their father’s death the eldest child was 790 yrs. of age and was to take the throne on their 1000 birthday.

 

This was changed when the queen took the eldest and youngest child and ran to earth becoming earth bound threw the gate. She did this because it was the middle child that was more suited for the crown and, more powerful. The child was extraordinary and, it was said that the middle child was not the eldest's child. It was the middle sons. The Queen had an affair with Andrew and thought that his child should rule. Her wings grew white when she reached earth with her children. What happened to them was unknown. When the last child reached of age they took the crown and ruled. They say that that child was almost better than the Nathan. For they are a master in self-defence and, power usage, they also say that that child was more powerful than the elder son and, would bring greatness to the rebel cities.

 

Being as there race is basic immortal the child was to rule for the rest of eternity.

 

Now the humans where not of descendants of these creatures but, adopted there surface form and, became a powerful race. That is not unknown to the other world though. Once after this happened there where a few that could travel between the worlds, many years later they all just disappeared, Some say they went to earth and, others say that the remainder of the power hungry killed them all to stop contact between worlds thinking it made human stronger. After the queen used this gate it was hidden by a magic even more powerful than the eldest.

 

The human world was lost

For Now

 

Chapter 1

The feeling of abandonment coursed through my body as I watched my parents bodies turn to ash. It was a tradition that we go down in flames then be scattered on a family plot with names etched into a tree that marked the place of death with life. I looked to my uncle knowing that he didn’t care whether his sister died or not. Since I was not of age he took me to his home. He had to pull me away from my parent’s grave with sharp words and, a tight grip on my shoulder.

 

He lived in grand home because of his title. He ruled this city.  Everyone thought he was doing a good dead by taking me in, that he would treat me properly and with kindness that our kind rarely had….. I knew that to him I was only an opportunity for popularity and, money. From what I have heard from my mother about her older brother was that he was cruel and uncaring only caring about power and what he could do to obtain it. I could be a useful tool to what he had planned for his son.

 

Of course I had not understood this when he took me in those years ago. Now his plan for rule was in play and, now I was a pawn in his game. With unknown power I played along. Someday I will be standing above him with one wind in each hand as he falls to his inescapable prison for now I wait.

 

DAMN My Uncle and his stupid plan to get our cities united as one They where the ones trying to kill us and their battle plans. DAMN HIM. I was too old for him to be making decisions for me. I slammed my bedroom door almost taking it off its hinges that my uncle had made so I wouldn’t rip the door off. I ripped off my gear and put my nightwear on; I fell to my bed with a frustrated sigh. There was only one place I could escape to now and, that was my dreams. No one can control me there, not even my father could do that.

 

I closed my eyes and, drifted into my dream world.

 

My eyes opened to see a dark forest, it was illuminated by the dark red moon that shown above. A branch cracked behind me and I spun around “Hello?” I called from where the sound erupted from.

 

“Greetings” said an undoubtedly male voice, “Sorry to be a bother but, do you know where we are? I don’t quite remember how I got here” He asked me with a small frown.

 

“The last thing I remember is closing my eyes to go to bed” I replied.

 

“Then we are dreaming because that’s what I remember last as well.” He said with a nod like he was reassuring himself about this. “Or I’m dreaming about you and, you are a work of fantasy.”

 

“Oh I assure you that I am no work of fiction and, that I am very much real. It’s you that I should ask!” I said with a smirk. My life is very real maybe that’s why I am dreaming of someone. Maybe these dreams are what my mind thinks of when I need to escape.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 2

So after that night I couldn’t wait to go to sleep so I would meet with the strange brunette. Our lives where so different yet so alike in a way I wished he was a real person and not a figment of my imagination. At times I forgot he was of my imagination it maddened me to great lengths. After a long dream I woke up smiling and, jumped out of my bed with ease as I ran to the bathroom so I could clean my body for another day of training. If there was to things I loved was training and, dreaming of my escape.

 

“Heather? Why are you in your training gear? Don’t you remember we are going to see the brothers of the white wing today?” Said my uncle as he put on his black leather jacket,

 

I sighed I had forgotten about the meeting with them “Well I’m wearing this no matter what I don’t trust those bastards”

 

“That could be sentencing war on all of us,’’ My uncle told me with a frown.

 

“Then so be it they would only be hurting their own empire. “I lashed out at him with my teeth bared.

 

His hands pulled themselves into fists. “THEN THE BLOOD WILL BE ON YOUR HANDS!” He shouted and strode outside to the carriage no doute waiting for me. I groaned and, suddenly I was in a dark red dress that hugged to my figure but reached the floor so my gear would be hidden.

I walked to the carriage with my head held high and sat beside my uncle. “I’m glad you changed your mind.” He said with a smirk that reminded me of my fathers. I smiled sadly as I looked into his eyes. “I miss him to Heather I miss him to.” He took me into his arms and held me for a while. It had been thousands of years since my father die, and yet it still takes a huge toll on me and my uncle.

Soon the carriage came to a halt and, my uncle stepped out first then held is hand out to me as I stepped out. Now we must act like he was a lord and I was his daughter to collect some information. Even if
