Goddess

The women glam to the girl and got off her horse. She sat down across from the girl and told her a story, but didn't introduce herself. The girl sat and listen as she spoke taking in every word she said.

"Why did you stop? What happens next?"

"Child I don't know what will happen next." The Goddess said.

"Well why not it's your story isn't it?"

"No, it's not. Everyone already knows my story. I'm the goddess of elements after all and my story is one that almost everyone knows."

"Well who's story is this?"

"This Story is yours and Aiden. It's not yet written or told, but I have a feeling one day it will be."

"Well if you know my story then what's my name."

"Your mother died and after her death she named you after me. In the hopes we would come to guid you. She called you Meg, now that was a name given after death so you still need a name to be given to you in life."

"Will you give me a name?"

"Of course I can child, if that is what you truly want."

"Ok will you please."

" let me think for a second..... how about Lily."

"Lily will work, but now what am I supposed to do next?"

"You and Aiden get to choose that, but I warn you don't trust everyone you meant and don't show your strength. I told you the story of you and Aiden in hopes to show you that humans are dangerous and destroy things they don't understand. Also remember your family is never far away they may not be right next to you but let it make you believe you are alone. Also don't let your emotions get the better of you, your abilities are strong and your emotions can fuel them and make you lose control. Always act with a reason and don't let the universe decisions change your ways to much. I will tell you something else the universe taught me during my life. The universe is never fair and as my parents would always tell me everything happens for a reason you might not always understand it and you will only see the full picture once in you lifetime. Stay true to yourself and do what you believe is right, but revenge doesn't help solve any problems or make any emotions less painful, it's a route I would avoid if I were you."

"Okay, will you tell me your story?"

"I'm afraid I don't have the time, the sun is rise so we must both be on our way, your story is no longer mine to narrate for you. Next time you see me I hope you can narrate it yourself."

"Can you at least tell me if the place I'm going to is safe?"

"It is for now they are referred to as natives and this is there land, they know my story along with others. It will be safe for you as long as you don't reveal your abilities."

The goddess pull a bag of gold coins from her dress and handed a piece to me.

"If anyone questions anything as to why you are on there land show them this and say the goddess of nature gave it to you and instructed you to give it the chief, show them the coin and his feather."

The bird came down as the goddess pull on of its tail feathers it was beautiful, it was gold and orange and red and it was like a peacocks tail other than the coloring difference. With that she handed me it and got on the horse. The sun was rising as she road off off with the fire bird leading the way. I watch her until she was completely out of sight. The goddess had told me my own story, all the parts that I didn't remember as well. I know have a name and my wolfs name. It's not every day that you see someone who glows and claims to be goddess although I believe it, she was completely made out of white light after all and road a horse made of ice and had a bird that was on fire.

If she's telling the truth then I'll find people where I'm headed so maybe then I'll be safe for a while and I won't be alone. Not that I was ever really alone since I had Aiden.

I rested a bag and put the feather and coin in it. Aiden laid next to me and allowed me to climb onto his back and he ran through the snow covered woods, towards where the smoke in the sky appeared to be coming from.
