So Watch out!

Chapter 15 Scaleaha

For the weeks that followed,

I mainly slept.

I felt as though I was stuck in a tornado, never going to see light again.

Its really a strange feeling - and if you've never experienced it before you can have no idea how strange it feels, floating between the barriers of the world.

When I finally had the energy to walk, my Maska took me to the market to buy some new clothes.

When I said I didn't want any she had just grabbed my arm and dragged me into town, all whilst I screamed like a two year old.

When she forced me to choose something I chose a plain pair of platform shoes and a silver cotton dress.

After another six weeks I was well enough to travel.

My Maska to me to a woman prayer temple, beside a huge crevasse.

After entering the temple I dropped to my knees and prayed that I would be well again.

After that Maska made me have my fortune told by looking into the crevasse.

As I gazed into the canyon of truth, death stared back at me, looking me in the eye, pulling out my secrets kept hidden.

My soul was dragged away.

My mind echoing one though - death.

Once again impulse took over and I jumped - to what seemed like death.

What was my ending?

I hung in the air, and a voice spoke to me - if you follow your dreams your life will be true, yet if you choose to go against that will, your death will follow.

I should have given the stone to Malanao.

He wanted it and I didn't.

Now I sit here - suspended in air, recalling only my mistakes, and what I thought, was my destiny.

Chapter 14....Scaleaha

I pant, my mouth open like a dog.
I begin to run again, desperately try to find my way out of the forest.
My face is bruised and swollen, telling my story to many times.
What an idiot I've been!

I push away a tree branch and there, in front of me lies the old dust path.
I turn my eyes away from the sunlight and begin my long walk home.
I break into a run perspiration dripping of my blood-stained body.
I scream in pain, once again, falling deep, into the dirt.
I pull myself up desperately begging with no-one, the somebody I long to be with me.

I finally arrive at the city gates.
The guards ask my name but I can't say anything.
"Kid! Say your name and your through!"
"Holiya." I say weakly.
"Holiya? Is that truly you? It is me Kazalibraka! Your uncle! Everyone is looking for you!"

I walk straight on through, letting his voice drown out.
Once around the corner I start to run, desperate to get home.
Suddenly I see it, my house, my home!
"Maska!" I say, opening the door.
"Holiya?" My Maska says, her voice weak.
"Yes Maska, its me."
"Oh my baby!" She says holding me in her arms sobbing wildly.

Fear not I have not forgotten my snippet...next-last chapter.

Chapter 13 Scaleaha

"Just give us the stone!" My father calls in anger."Your siding with the bad people! Come back to us, were the true keepers of Scaleaha!" He grumbles on."We were being controlled by Zeatra! He said that unless we held you captive and kept our love for you at bay he would kill you! Oh my darling daughter don't you see!" "Don't listen to him," Feskara says, slowly recovering."
"They're lying! Can't you see that!"

"My darling daughter, you obviously don't trust them, why else would you not tell them you had the stone."

I shake my head tears streaming down my face.
"After all you did to me! All you did you expect for me to just trust you? That I would forgive you? I almost died and you didn't care! All parents would rather see themselves die than to keep a huge secret from them! I heard what Zeatra said to you and the threat wasn't to me but to you! Your a pile of scum now LEAVE! Please dad, just leave."

He looks at me and I see his love but I turn away my face.
I expect them to fight before even thinking of leaving but they slip out the window in silence, as though none of this had happened leaving me and Feskara alone.

"You have the stone. You didn't tell. You pay with blood."

Until that moment I thought I had made the right decision, but only now do I realize, that the so called 'goodies', only wanted me dead.

So who are the goodies and who are the baddies?

Or does Holiya have no-one to turn to?

Find out in chapter 14!

The second to last chapter of this senic adventure!
