Amber’s POV
The throne room is one big inferno cover in death and screams from those who are not yet gone. Keres sits on her throne still, but she’s breathing heavily and her clothes are long gone. I haven’t seen Narine since before I let my fire rage throughout the room, and even though I hope she’s dead, in my heart I know better. She escaped before I could get to her, and I will forever be on the lookout for her revenge. I promise to myself and my family that this is the last ti soone gets kidnapped. I need to be able to protect my family, and I know just how to do it - just got to do it. It’s a task for another ti, but that ti has to be closer than far because Keres will thirst for revenge as well after this.
I call my fire back to , and it listens with ease, engulfing my figure instead. It dances over my skin and in my eyes. I know they are glowing with an orange and purple glow, and I know I’m a sight to see. This ti Keres stepped over the line, and this ti I will deliver that ssage myself.
Willow takes my hand, hers is warr than normal, but nothing else has happened to her. She smiles at , tears in her eyes. I’m not sure if they are tears of sadness, concern, joy or pride?
"Pride, and a small smidge of concern. I thought your mother was a powerful Queen, but you, my dear. You are thrice as powerful as she was and still is." Willow says. Her thought reading powers are just as prominent and hard to ta as always.
"Thank you. I think." She chuckles, when Keres’ voice interrupts our mont.
"You made your point, Amber. Now please leave my realm before you destroy any more of my ho with that disgusting bright fla of yours." I quirk an eyebrow.
"I thought it was totally within the rules to break into soone else’s ho and wreak havoc. Isn’t that what you have done over the years? Gone into peoples hos and stolen or destroyed persons and belongings as you please? Not so fun when it’s your own ho. Your own people, huh. Well, too friggin bad!" I turn away from the seething goddess, concentrate and send a small, but bright as a sun, fla out the door. It scours through the castle - which I assu this is, without having looked upon it from the outside, and I can hear the cries of agony and suffering as my fla cos into contact with the dark creatures. Keres pales more than ever, feeling the pain of her people. But this is just a small price for her to pay for the pain and suffering she’s inflicted on , my family and everyone else in the upper realm.
"Amber! It’s enough!" Soone from behind says. I turn around to see both Selene and Solei standing there in all their ethereal glory. I roll my eyes at her and keep doing what I’m doing. She’s not going to stop , and I’m on a mission right now.
"Did you not hear my daughter, you insolent little..." I hold up my hand.
"You can keep your charming words to yourself, Solei. I heard her, and I’m ignoring her. And you for that matter. If soone is an insolent little brat, then it would be you and your children." Willow gasps, as her hands fly to her mouth.
"AMBER!" She scolds, trying to grab my shoulder, but I shake her off.
"You and your daughters are the sole reason for this ss! You co here all high and mighty and want to stop what I’m doing? It’s a joke right? You started all of this. You, AND your daughters did. And now you are going to reap the consequences of your choice." Solei narrows her eyes at , imposing her aura, trying to make submit to her. Willow whimpers under the force of the goddess, but I do not budge. They are at fault here, and will NEVER bow down to a goddess ever again. I am the Queen of Fire, and Solei has nothing on .
I push Willow behind , shielding her from the goddess’s tricks. I keep her hand in mine, so Keres, who is behind , does not get any ideas. As a safety asure I call forth a blinding bright light and place it around my aunt. This way I’m sure no one is going to touch her.
"You think you can scare with that little aura trick, Solei? You have another thing coming. I am the Queen of Fire, and I wield the flas of Hell! Do not ever think you can just walk in here and decide on my or my family’s behalf ever again. I’m tired of you five trying to manipulate and push us in a certain direction." Selene turns her undivided attention on with the word "five".
"What do you an?" She asks and I laugh.
"Do you really think I’m that stupid, Selene? You and your sisters - Keres, Ophelia and Monica. Then you are your mother. That makes five divine creatures who think it’s funny to ddle in the lives of their children solely for their own gain. I know! And I rember. Everything." Selene raises her hands.
"Amber, I’m only here because I don’t want you to make a mis..."
"Don’t even try it, Selene! You hate your sister and what she’s trying to do with the war coming up. And you of all people should be happy I finally decided to do sothing. But here you are - hypocrisy at its best! You leave , my family and everyone else alone or I swear on my childrens lives; I will destroy all of you!" I turn my head to look Keres in the eyes, and then I do the sa with Solei. I don’t really have a beef with Selene, but she’s done ddling with my life or the life of the people I love! Selene nods hesitantly, but before I can teleport out, she mind-links .
’I really need to speak to you and your family, Amber. It’s of utmost importance and I’ll explain what is going on. Please give this last opportunity.’ I look at her, nod once and then I’m gone with Willow at my hand. I left a little token for Keres to keep her occupied for the foreseeable future.
