Day 4: After

* the Year 2030 (10 years after the birth of Casey)

*Calvin P.o.V*

Ten years ago, I watched the Love of my life die from childbirth. I rewrote history and still didn't change a thing. Yes, i saved my mother and mother and the best friend, but a piece of me is still missing. I don't know where to go and who to trust. We have been on the run since my little girl came into this world. Yet i still feel as the demons that are in my father are always looking for us. But the magic Nala put on us keep us cloaked for so we keep moving so they won't find her. We had a different incident where they came close to seeing us. Like the time when Casey was two years old, and i had her in a baby bed at my mom's new house in Killeen, Texas. I thought it was safe, but they came in her window and tried to take her, but luckily my mother was in there with her, and she screams for help, and i saved her we had to move then. Oh yeah! When she was 8, I let her into school in Arizona, and they found her there and hurt a hundred of students. So we kept moving, and i kept believing that things will get better for my little girl and me. She a Demi-God like me, but she has a power that i don't have that the demons want. But whatever it is, i won't let them get her. I finished washing the red ford focus as i watch my ten-year-old daughter play. We found a farmhouse out in England where i work and home school, my little girl. It's a quiet place, and she can practice her magic. She can ascend just like i can, but she has wings with hers. I think it's cold and her ability to control water and air and spirit is cool. I feel like I was born to be destined for something big, and i wish i knew, but i don't.

"Daddy, can we make some ice cream today, you promise." she jumped up and down on my arm as she kept repeating, "Can we please." she reminded me so much of her mother. Her golden-brown eyes and long, pretty black hair, Hert skin glows golden milky brown skin and the beautiful pearly white teeth. She had almond shape eyes and plump lips. The only thing she got from me was my height; everything else her mother. I get sad when I know that i went to change the future only for my life's Love to die to keep our daughter safe.

"Yes, Baby girl, we can, and how about we call grandmas and see what they are up to.'" i rub her hair, and she laughed a little.

"Oh, that would be a lovely idea, daddy and i can tell her about my new birthday Ideas." she was happy that her birthday was on love day. The day her mother died, and the day she lived. I had to be stuck on this day for three days in different timelines, so im not excited about love day, but im happy it's my little girl's birthday. We walk back to the house hand and hand as my little girls smile beam big to see her grandmas again. It's been a long time, but hey, it will be good for her. We entered into the house and ran right for the kitchen toward the phone, almost knocking me off my balance.

"Be careful Casey, don't run so fast in the house," I yelled as i made it to the kitchen, and she sat on the stool next to the phone wall. I pick it up and dial my mother's number. "You have to be careful, honey, you could have hurt yourself or me." I put the phone up to my ear and listen to it ring.

"Yes, sir, she said with her head down." I listen to the phone ring four more times before my mother picks up.

"Hello, This is Katherina. Who am i speaking to?" She asked politely.

"Hello, mom, it's me. It's time to come in 3 days." I smile, giving her the code just in case if someone is listening on our calls.

"ok, will be there." she hung up, and my daughter smile. She ran upstairs to prepare for their arrival i know she was i knew her at the back of my hands. I went outside to get some firewood and some lemons for some lemonade. I walk back to the house to Casey, washing dishes. I'm not going to lie and say that it wasn't the life being out here in the unknown because it was. I knew my daughter was safe and happy, But it worries me as she gets older, and she's not going to like the things she does now. Oh, and what if she gets her period. Omg, am i the Man for this job? Will i be a good dad. God, i hope so.

"Dad, stop worrying; with the right amount of training you give ill be just fine; plus im always going to be your little girl no matter what ok, Im always going to love you, daddy." She dries her hands and hugs me. She set the table and put the tub of ice cream on the table with homemade pizza. We said our prayers and began to eat; it's days like this where i cherish the most. We laughed and talked all night until i realized it was 8 pm.

"All right, little one, it's time." she smiles and nods. Ok, daddy, let me clean up here, and ill get ready for bed. I nodded and sat there, watching her clean. Just wondering where the time goes i didn't realize i was staring until she waves her hand in front of my face.

" Dad, I'm done with my chorus, and ill get a bath and read for bed." She said as she makes her way upstairs.

"Deal, I'll be up there to give you a story of the day, ok." She yelled ok as she disappears upstairs. I went outside to do my nightly rounds to guard the house. I saw that the sun was setting, and everything seem so quiet as the wheat blows in the wind. I went behind the place to see the cornfield and saw no moving. I breathe in a sigh and walk back to the front, so far nothing everything seems so right now its been eight months since the last attack and nothing. Everythings have been so quiet and at peace that I don't know it just too good to be true. I guess, right? I made it to the front and saw a car pulling up. My mom should have been here in 2 days. So I knew it wasn't them. I made it to the porch, and i went into the house, locking the front door; Casey came downstairs with a freaked look on her face. I put my finger on my lips to tell her to keep quiet. She nods and then slowly walks up beside me as i grab my gun and aim it to the door. She kept strolling until her hand touched the door, and she closes her eyes as if she can sense who was out there.

"Dad, it a black car out front with at least four people in there, three males and one female. But the female look's familiar, and I'm giving a weird vibe, not a bad one, just a warning." She had her eyes close while her palm press against the door. A knock made her jump back to my side and hid behind me. She shook with fear as if she knew she would have been taken as if i would let that happen. I looked out the window with my gun to my side. I gave an emphatic "Who is it?" and at first it was no answer. Maybe they didn't hear me, so i repeated it, "Who is it?" This time a woman answers.

"It's so good to hear your voice Calvin" i knew who it was, and i couldn't believe she's here after she left her best friend's daughter and me. She hated me for her death, even if it wasn't my fault. When she woke up that night and learned that Nala was dead and she had the baby, she hated me for dear life and couldn't stand Casey's sight either. So when we went our separate ways, she became the C.I.A. an of supernature creatures, So i wonder why she's here.

"Why are you here, Amanda? It's been ten years and not once have you cared to pick up the phone," I said as i click my gun, I look at the peephole watching there every moving, but with her face expression, i can tell she was super sad.

"Look im sorry for blaming you; it wasn't your fault or hers. I'm kind of like your guide to help you keep your daughter safe. In about 10 mins a demon will come for her. Do you trust me?" she said, and i look at my daughter to sense if she was lying. She touched the door one last time, and she looked at me, confused.

"Daddy, she's telling the truth. She's here to help." she moved her hands and put it on my cheeks and showed me the images of Amandas thoughts. Yes, baby girl can do that too. Can tell if it's a lie or the truth with one word; she will know the truth about you. I open the door and look Amanda in the face; she looked me deep in the eyes as if she saw a ghost, and i kind of admired her with her slim waist, beautiful pearly white smile, and beautiful almond dark chocolate eyes. Her hair was purple as a plum, and her attitude well her sarcasm and the hopeless act. Yeah, still the same from high school.

"Can i come in? The guys can wait outside i promise they won't come to no harm. We need to talk Asap they will be here soon, and they did find you." she walks past me while the guys stay out front. i close the door as my daughter stays behind me. "Hey, Casey, how are you? It's been a long time since i have seen you, and gosh, you look just as beautiful as your mom did." She said sweetly as if the memories hurt her just by thinking of it.

"Hello, How do you know my family and me if you don't mind me asking." She said as she kept under me.

"We shall get to that in time, but first, i need to get you out of here. Casey, do you mind going to pack a light bag? Get things you need and reading materials? We have a long ride. Calvin, i found your mom and Mrs. Nissa are on their way to the base, and we need to be hurrying and get on our way, ok." Casey made her way upstairs, and i put my gun down and look at Amanda.

"Why are you helping us? You left me on my own ten years ago, blaming me for your best friend's death. So why come back? Why help," i asked, walking up to her and grab her arm. '"You shouldn't be here. You don't care for us; where were you when i had to keep on the move when those things tried to kill us multiple times." she looked at me with sad eyes and pulled her arm out of my grasp.

"Look, i was finding an answer on your daughter; it was God's orders not to tell. I did blame you at first, but then i looked into Casey's eyes, as i saw my best friend in her. Her soul lies within your daughter; that's why she so specials. Ok, so seemed unreal when i found out as well. That night Casey took her mother's souls to live within her to keep the demons away. When she was born, God woke me and told me what i needed to do.

*Flashback*

It was cold and windy. The colds went from blue night skies to dark smoky fire sky. I felt something was off, so i got out the bed and walk to the window. I looked out, wondering where i was and how i got there, and this rain of light came behind me and shook me to my core when i found out God was in my room. I was happy to see that he came for someone like me, you know. He sat on the bed and patted the ground for me to sit next to him. I felt like a child because i obeyed and sat next to him. He looked me into the eyes and began to tell me everything.

"My daughter, Nala, didn't make it, but her daughter has. She will need you to look after her, Calvin doesn't know this, but when Casey turns 18, her mother will be reborn again. The battles between hell and earth will start the day she will begin to awake. But until that time comes, go to this location and get things set up. On her 11 birthday, they will find her and attempt to kill her again, but the difference is her mother's powers have awakened inside of her, and that won't be so good if not controlled." He pats my right hand, and he showed me images of the world ending on her 18th birthday. I couldn't believe what i saw as soon as he showed me, i began to get to work.

*end of flashback*

"So that's why i left, and that's why im here, so stop asking questions and let's get things ready to go." she began to light up sage and wave it around the house.

"What are you doing?" i asked and went to the kitchen and pack snacks and water.

"Im covering your scents now, hurry!" I did what i told you to hurry and pack. Casey cam downstairs with two suitcases, one for her and me, She grabbed her kitten Naruto and put him in his cage, and she sat on the couch for more instructions. I finish with the snacks, and a knock on the front door snap us back into reality. She walks to the door and opens it a little.

"Ma'am, two cars are coming up fast, and we need to hurry, Its a new car, and i say yall need to take the back door. The truck is there, and yall can escape," the guard said. I looked at her, wondering what was going on. She looked at me and nod, and i knew we need to move.

"Come, Casey, back door." We move to the back door, and she stayed.

"Go and get into the truck i can't leave my husband behind. I will stay and fight the truck will take you to base ill be there and answer your questions, ok." I nod and push Casey out the door wither cat and ran to the truck. The guards open the door, and we got i. Once we were safe in the trucks, gunshots fired, and the house was coming down for the number of bullet holes in it. I saw Amanda fight with the three guys, and she looks good down it. But once we were not on site, i sat back and relaxed a little but also keeping my eyes out for danger. I still have my mother's and God's gifts, and i always used them until this day. I will be careful with it and try my best to show my daughter how to be safe.

~~ three hours later~~

we pull up to a good guard mansion; I look to be all metal and conceal, and to be honest, it looks cool. "What is this place, dad.?" she asked, but to be honest, i have no clue.

"It's your mansion, Princess Casey. You are very special and will find out just how special you are."When we pull up in front of the mansion, the female guard said the woman got out the driver's side and walked to my door and open it. Soon she was at my daughter's door and opened it. Casey got out, and everyone bows to her and me, and i was looking a hell of confused.

"Welcome, King Calvin and Princess Casey, the moment we have been dying to meet you since you were born; she looked at Casey. Calvin, i don't know if you remember me, but this is the place you were born. I help your mother bring you into this world," she smiled, and i look at her closely and hit me.

"Jane," she smiled and hugged me, and i hugged her back.

"Yes, you remember, come, let's get you settled in. Justices come." A maid came to stand next to her fast, and she stood at attention. "Princess Casey, this is Justice and will be your maid; she will help you adjust to the mansion and show you to your room." I saw Casey look at me to get my approval, and i nod for her to go, and she followed the maid. "Now King Calvin, we need to get you to your office, and then you will meet Lady Amanda. You know she got this place back up and running; when your mom left, things died down. I wish we knew your father was a demon. We could have stopped it. But once we heard you change history, we knew we saved." She smiled and led me to my office. "I'm sorry about Nala, and she was your mate and also a human that wrote her timeline; she must be very special to god to do that, Noone can write a timeline but him, so she's magical." we made a left and right and got close to a modern wooden door. I look at the wall on my left to see it full with pictures of my late family until i reach my mother's holding me. I touched the painting and wondering why can't i remember. "This way, King, If you like, we can create an up to date of you and your daughter, and if you like, we can add the Late Queen as well God rest her soul." I nod and smile, walk to the door, and open it. But before i walked in, i turn to her and smile.

"I will like that, Jane, can we get that set up." she nods and walks off. I open up the door and walk in to see a massive bookshelf behind the desk, and two modern blue chairs sit in front of my black desk. I look at the window, and outside was a beautiful garden. I saw Casey smiling at the maid as they talk and enjoy the flowers.

"She looks at peace for once and not on edge. It looks like she loves this place." Amanda closes the door behind her and walks to stand beside me. "She is so much like my best friend."

"Yes, she is, but what did you mean about Nala being inside of her," I asked and looked at her while walking back to the desk.

"I'm not sure myself, but at midnight on Feb 14, the sun and the moon came together to form the magical switch that ever happened. Nala became one with her self when she gave birth and put her soul with Casey to keep her hiding, but before she died, she gave Casey the last bit of her soul and ask God to keep her safe until the day she turns 18 to reunite with her mother. But when Casey fully awaken, that is when the war will begin." I sat down in the chair and looked at her.

"Ok, so why is everyone calling me King and why is there a thousand books behind me explain the royal duties and administrations." I put my hand on my head. " What is this place."

"Well, momma Kat is here, and she owns this place. She's kind of royalty, and so are you. Queen Kat kept this life aside and wanted you to live human when the Queen discovered the pregnancy by your father. She didn't want you to know that you were a Demi-God, and she didn't want you to know about your crazy royal grandfather that past away recently, either. There is a lot that needs to be said, but i think she needs to explain." She got up and lay a map out. "Tomorrow will be a small celebration for your daughter's 11th birthday. So this is the map of the mansion. The ballroom is here," she pointed at the center of the map. "Your wing is here, You and your daughter have the whole left-wing." she means to the left, and it looks like a vast apartment. "On your right is for Mother's wing, and you are only allowed when summiting ok."

I nodded and kept looking at the map. "My room is back wing over here, I have my area due to me owning the army, and we have our training grounds here." She points at the midding of the map showing the back of the house. I nd and she gave me the map. "Should we go to your room."I nod, and she leads the way. "We will give you a day of rest, and tomorrow is the party and work." She went to the left-wing and showed me to my room. She unlocked the door and gave me my key; she stepped aside to walk into the room. It was black and blue with white borders. I had a king-size bed with black satin sheets and black, fully pillows. I had a bathroom to my right and a clothest to my request. I had a little study in the back of my closet. I can say this room fits a King. "Well, i hope everything is to your liking, and the princess is in the room next to you. See you tomorrow Calvin." she walked to the door and was about to close it when she pops her head in the door. "Oh, the Mother Queen wants to see you tomorrow morning when you wake up." then she closes the door leaving me to my thoughts.

~~Feb 14 (Casey Birthday)~~

Waking up was unreal, to be honest. All the stuff i been throwing over the years has been taking a toll on me. I regret waking up alone, but at least i get to be with my daughter "how much can a person take God? Can i please talk to my Love? I miss her so much." I thought to myself, but i knew God heard it anyway because a cust of wind flew into the room so hard that the windows burst open. I sat up in my bed, and i saw the brightest light ever; I looked to the window with my hands blocking the morning, trying my best to see the figure standing at the window. I squinch my eyes trying to see then it was her, With beautiful white wings and black hair flow down to her back. She smiles and holds open her arms.

"Calvin," Hearing her words made tears fall hard.

"Nala," i said and slowly left the bed to walk to her. Seconds later, i stood in front of her. We stared into each other eyes, not saying a word, not moving, just smiling. Then i reach my hands to her face i caress her cheeks before kissing her on the lips. I was so happy to have her in my arms that i couldn't stop kissing her. I wanted her here with me celebrating our daughter's special day. She pulls away, and we are out of breath; she looked at me and smile.

"Miss me much," she said sarcastically.

"You think You left me for ten years, and im lost without you," I said, still holding her. "I don't even know how to do this parenting thing," i said, frustrated.

"Love, you are doing beautifully. She looks amazing 11 years old today; she looks sp much like you," she said, looking me into my eyes. She pulls away from a little and puts her wings in her back. "You are doing well, and i been watching over you. I might be my spirit but im here, but i am here. My soul is in our daughters for a certain reason. I did that to protect what is in my soul. My soul is a key that holds the universes together. The demons want it because, with my soul, You can make all universes into one and rule all of them. There are eight universes in, and the one you live in now is the number 7 begins the future stage. You are living your life the way God has written it," She said and sat me down on the couch and look at me.

"How can you write your timeline, and i can't knowing that im God's son." She looked down and look at me.

"I found out i was never human the day i died, my mother isn't my real mother, God sent me to earth when i was reborn again. I lived over thousands of years living between universes ascending to different places, seeing different things, until i spotted you. I watched you the day you are born, and i knew you were my mate. When God sent you and your mother to earth to live a normal life, i wanted to live the same, so i asked God for a deal. If she lets me live a long life with you, I will go back to my post when i produce an heir, I did that, but when i was giving birth, and my memories came back, i didn't want to leave you. I wanted to stay i remember me watching over you and being with you. It was a blessing that i was able to live that life with you. When i died the first time, i didn't write it the demons did they find a link to my soul and tried to kill me sooner then i expect it. When you change history, you help me, come back, so i was able to give my soul to Casey. Now listen to this. It's important, on her 18th birthday, i need her to perform a spell. When i come back, your father will come; I don't know what they have a plan, but i know it's not good." she holds my hand so i can understand what she was saying.

"Wow, hmm, this is a lot to take in," I said i walked over to the window and looked outside, seeing people getting decorations ready and everything just for our daughter. It isn't somewhat extraordinary!

"Yeah, i would have been an awesome queen, but now, It's our daughter's choice to rule or not." I looked at her and knew this battle between fathers are not going to be good."Love, my time is up, but i need you to give our daughter this ok." She let down beautiful pearl necklaces. It was so beautiful. "Tell her to look into it every midnight, and then she shall see me and ask me anything she wants, ok." I nod, and she steps away from me, " I love you so much, and i can't wait to see you soon." then she disappeared.

I sat in bed, and my thoughts were going haywire. All this time, my mother has been a queen, and my stepfather is a demon whos in Love with another monster, My birth father is God, and im a demi-god, My daughter is a powerful experiment, and my life keeps getting weird. My mate's soul trapped in my daughter, and demons are after her. When will everything go completely normal because i need a dose of ordinary? I walk into the bathroom and do my nightly route; I take my clothes off to shower. Over the years, i grew taller that once skinny kids have gotten muscular, I have no glasses, and yes im still a smart nerd who watches anime. I let the water run on my fresh cut faded as i try to drown my sorrows in the drain. A ring on the wall had me jump, and i scream out yes, and the intercom on the wall spoke.

"Master, the guess will arrive soon, please be ready in 15 mins," i told her i understand, and the intercom turns off. I finish washing my body and my hair then turn off the shower. I wrapped my lower half with a towel and left the bathroom, went into the room, and got dressed i heard a knock on my room door i went to open it and find my daughter on the other side of the door. She looks like a true princess, so beautiful, and she only 11. She had on a beautiful long soft pink dress on with a sweetheart neckline. It was an off the shoulder dress, and it fit her personality as bubbly as she is. She a tiara that matches her dress, and i know she was wearing flats; the child of mines will never wear heels no matter the length.

"Hey, Cass looking beautiful darling, Happy birthday." I hold up the necklace her mother gave me, and she smiles.

"It's beautiful daddy wear did you get it." she turns around, and i place the necklace around her neck. I fell in place once i hooked the latched, and it daggled on her chest.

"It was moms kept it for a long time. I felt like it was a good time for you to have something of her on your bday so i thought this would be cool." she hugged me and told me to thank you. I grab my jacket and put it on. "Oh, almost forgot, that necklace is magical, and if you look into it at midnight tonight, you will see mom again and ask her anything." she beam and play with the necklace before we headed to the ballroom. Following the laughter and music, i see many royal people dancing and laughing, having a good time. My mother spotted us and tapped her glass to get everyone's attention.

"Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to my Granddaughter's 11th birthday celebration. I will like everyone to turn around and a warm welcome to my son, the new King of Forevermore, and my Granddaughter Princess Casey. " Everyone clapped and smiled up at us. "Today my son claims his throne and so do my granddaughter, so at this time let eat, dance, and celebrate the new King and Princess." everyone clapped and dance with joy. They brought out cake and song to my daughter. She enjoys her life being in the spotlight, and so she should.

My mother came and stood next to me as she drinks her wine. "Well, son, this was an unexpected turn i never thought i would be back here again. When i heard the demons attacked you, i knew i had to report here and that this was the safest place i could think of." I looked at my mom, kind of mad that she lied to me.

"You know mom, i expect you to be honest with me, and so far, i learn the truth about everything. why didn't you tell me you are royalty." she sighs and looks at me

"Son, your father, build us this place. I told God i wanted to be normal and i wanted you normal, so he sent me to earth, I met James, and he was a cool person until he sold his soul and had me doing the most disturbing thing to keep you safe; when i get to choose a normal life. My magic everything was taking, so i did what i had to even if it was my choice." She drunk some more. "I never meant to keep it a secret just to protect you. I love how you change so much and still fighting for what you believe in." She touches my shoulder "Im sorry for lying to you and keeping things from you. I didn't know how to explain it, and to know you save my life, i didn't know how to repay you, so i let the truth come out, and if you ever would like to ask the question, i would answer them honestly." she said i gave a kiss on her cheek.

"Well, ma, we will discuss that, but right now, let's enjoy the class party.." before i could finish my sentence, a scream came from Casey. i rush to her and find a woman dead on the ground as if her life has been draining from her body. I pull Casey to me and hug her away from the body; My mother came behind us, and Casey went to her i check the girl's body for any marks, nothing. "Did anyone see what happen," I asked and stood up

"No, my King, everyone was dancing, and she hit the floor, and her body became old as if a demon was sucking her dry." A male guest stated

"Because it was a demon." James came from the dark and laugh. "Hi, stepson, Wife" he laughs a cruel laugh and tried to step forward. "Oh my, Casey, you shine so brightly. Yes, i will claim that soul in no time." he walks towards my her, and i step in front of her.

"Over my dead body," I said. But James sat there looking at me and grinned an evil grin.

"That can be so arranged." with a snap of his fingers, my necked snapped, and i fell. I heard my mother cry, but why were they calling—screaming and panicking who they are? I felt my breath giving out. Am i dying?

"Yes, my son, your journey had to end for now. Your soul will be with your daughters but sleep, my son. You done well." God said, and my eyes closed and surrounded by darkness.

*Casey P.O.V*

"Daddy No!" i said, seeing his neck snapped in front of my had my drop to my knees. The demon called James tried to launch at me, but something inside of me didn't let him. I look at my necklace, and a bright light surrounds my dad and me. I lift my hands out, and this light beams out of my hand to him. It hit him so hard he got knocked off his feet. "leave us alone!" i scream, and again, my hair grew longer; my skin glow with power my eyes were red from crying. I lost my dad on my 11th birthday, and i couldn't control my emotions. I let out a scream, and James' body got caught on fire. I watched him burn as lighten hit him right in the forehead as it sucked his soul dry, and his body feels to the ground lifeless. I couldn't care less because i lost another important person. When i saw he was gone, my light dimmed down. I look at my grandmother as she cried over my father sitting on the ground watching his lifeless body; I turned around watching everyone run and scream as i fell to the ground and passed out.

~6 years later~

That night was the worse night of my life as the years go by, It's been six years since that happened, and i still can't get the images out of my head. My father is passing away, and my mother died at childbirth. The only person i have now is my grandma's and Amanda, my new best friend. She's been with me since my father's death and never left my side either. I sat in my bed wondering will i ever be expected, and if i could, will i be living on a beach or the farmhouse i used to have as a little girl. I knew i was exceptional, and with that lies the danger, but one thing i do know is that God was with me every step of the way. I cut my lights off on my nightstand and let the darkness surround me. Tomorrow was my coronation to be Queen of Forevermore, and I'm now 17. Here is my side of the story, so sit back and enjoy the ride. Tomorrow will be After the Storm into Day 1.
