Unexpected Guests

—Queen Amber of Era— 

 It's been a while since dark shadows are lingering outside. Sigmund stayed inside to make sure that the kids were safe. I approached my son and hugged him. 

"What's going on?" He asked. "Why are there blackbirds outside?" He asked. In his eyes, those flying evil shadows are blackbirds. But it's not. I caressed his short hair. 

"It's not blackbirds my love. It's evil shadows. We can't go inside." 

"Oh, but what about papa? What about others who are outside. Will they be alright?" He asked me innocently. 

"Yes, they will." I kissed his forehead. 

"Auntie!" Bella cried and she slipped off from her bed and ran to the door. Bethany was standing there but I never heard her enter. Kenneth and Darren run after Bella. 

 Kenneth caught Bella and pulled her away. 

"Auntie Beth, I want a hug please!" Bella cried. Sigmund quickly went toward them and pulled out his sword toward Bethany.
