Ditsy_Taurus888 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 [COLOR=SeaGreen][SIZE=4][CENTER][U][B]Something Worth Dying For[/B][/U][/CENTER] [/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=Purple]"Skylar! Skylar! They have her! The council has Miri!" A very pregnant, small woman held up her floor length skirt as she ran. "Dara? They- Oh no. We have to do something!" Skylar tucked her short blonde hair behind her ears as her face began to crease with concern. She was a beautiful, powerful looking woman in her mid twenties. "Why? What will they do with her?" Camellia, a girl far younger than the other two looked up. "They will make an example." Skylar looked her strait in the eyes. Camellia needed no further explanation. She knew exactly what those words meant. Public execution. In this village there is a council of powerful magic users. Over the years it has advanced to a city. It is as modern as any other such as Vegas, Miami, L.A., NEW YORK City is, and its leaders are just as corrupt. It does not follow the laws of the state or country. It has made it's own. A sisterhood of rebels formed a short while after the council. They keep their memberships secret. It progressed more to an organization of both genders when brothers, husbands, and friends joined. But it still is supposed to be a sisterhood. The council for many years now has been trying to find the ringleaders. If Miri, Skylar, or Didrika were discovered they wouldn't hesitate to take them into custody and execute them without trial. They knew this all to well when they chose this path and their apprentices such as Camellia would one day make this very same decision. "Where is freira?" Dara looked about the room. "Up stairs caring for Didrika. She has got no better. Which is lucky for if she found out she would stop at nothing to free her sister! She might even risk exposing us all!" Skylar warned, as she dialed the phone. "But Miri is her older sister. She practically raised her! Don't you think she deserves to know?" Dar replaced tears with fury. "Deserve to know what?" Freira walked in. "Is like Ken and her eloping? She knows how much I hate him! Oh she's go-" "No." Skylar cut her off. "She is- the council arrested her." Dara began to cry again. Who ever Skylar had called she began talking to. "Oh my god! And you weren't even going to tell me! What did you think I wasn't going to notice?" Freira started for the door. "No just hoping" Skylar said as she stopped her. "Yeah Calix I need you over hear now. Don't bring Bernadette. I love you. Good bye." She talked into the phone before hanging it up. "You can't stop me I'm going now!" She pushed past the woman. "If you leave here. You are no longer a Medea Minya!" Skylar threatened but with no use for the girl had gone any ways. When Skylar's husband Calix arrived they went to the jail to see if they could free Miri. There was no use it was a slim chance they could free her. "We'll try anyway!" Skylar decided. "No. We will be caught! Think of our daughters, Bernadette, Sloan. They need parents. And Astrid. What of her? She needs some one to care for her if we can't save her mother." Calix objected. "Then I will save her so you will not be caught." Skylar shrugged and began to walk away. "Think of the Medea Minya! Who will be left to lead them? Didrika is near death. Only new apprentices remain! Rookies who haven?t even finished their schooling! Our only hope?" He grabbed ahold of her. "My mother had no teacher when she founded the sister-hood." She starred at him coldly. "Your mother was special! They are not like her. Can you picture Camellia assassinating council members with just her mind?" He explained. "Then you still can save her? No one is dependent on your survival." She said before thinking. "Would you put me to my certain death?" He let her go and turned from her. "I didn't mean that!" She tried to grab for him but he pulled away. 'Yes you did. I'm not as important as you are. You didn't mean to say it but you meant what you said." He walked away. "I cannot save you Miri. I am so sorry." She looked at the building for a long moment before turning away. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Mommy wake up!" A small girl with dark hair pounced on Skylar. "Did your father come home last night?" She sat up. "No. Is he on a mission?" The girl asked. "Shhh. Sloan!" Skylar scolded. Then lowered her voice. "Not around your sister." "She's still sleeping!" Sloan cocked her head. Skylar looked over at her youngest daughter. She was still asleep. How odd? "What do you want?" "I heard that Miri has been captured! ...And Freira left the sister hood." She widened her eyes as she spoke. "You hear alot for a seven year old. We should learn to never underestimate the power of children?s ears huh?" He mother tried to shrug it off. "Wait there's more! Freira tried to help Miri escape and was captured! They had the trial earlier this morning. I don't know the results because I couldn't hear anymore over the crying. Is something bad gonna happen?" "Stay hear and watch your sister." Skylar demanded as she got up and dressed. "But mom! I wanna know what's gonna happen to them! Why won't you tell me!" She wined. "Cause all you need to worry about right now is your chores...... and I don't want you to do the same as freira." She said before leaving the house. She made her way to the Town Square. The platform in the center was already being prepared. She knew what the outcome of the trial was. She could hardly keep from crying. But she had to conceal her emotions. She had to stay strong. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ The leaders of the council stood before the crowd. Three men with axes stood behind them. Miri and freira were tied up awaiting their deaths. One of the council?s men held Astrid in the very front, forcing her to watch every second. She was small and blonde like her mother. She was only 3 years old. Bernadette and Sloan stood in the center of the crowd with their father, and the rest of the sister hood stood in the back. "Citizens of Darkville" Lord Edrick began. "You all are hear to witness what happens to those pesky rebels. They die. They try to ruin all that we have created and provided for you. They want the power we have. If any of you media men wish to join them feel free to share their fate. But you want you'll hide among the crowd like the weaklings you are. You pledge your allegiance to a "sister hood" But have no real devotion. ..... What no takers?" "Miri and freira, my beloved sisters, you will not die alone today!" Skylar raised her voice so all could hear. The guard took hold of her and brought her up. "No mommy!" Sloan darted for her but her father took a tight grip on both the girls. "Any one else?" Edrick looked over the crowd. " How convenient three executioners and three people who need to be executed." He smirked. "All of you who have not the courage to die for your sisters, I am disgusted! You are truly not worthy of the name Medea Minya. My mother is watching us now ashamed of her children, all but three. We will be joining her shortly." Skylar announced before her head being tied down along with the others. The men raised their axes and brought them down swiftly. Blood splirted out of their dead bodies and splattered across Astrid?s face before falling to the wood of the platform with a sickening thud.
