"Are you okay, Kyera?" Clovis asked, wrapping an arm around his pale wife . It was then Kyera's mind and senses withdrew from that scene . She could feel his touch, hear the drumbeats, and smell the meat's fragrance in the air . It was almost a bad dream, but she felt tired . A weight perched on her chest as she tried to breath deeply and shake it off . She had to be too tired . There was no other explanation… or at least none she would accept . She let her body sag against him and Kendrick frowned . He could see the look in her eyes and knew what the answer was . However, he could not ask her here .

"Here, let me take Kyera out for some air . You and Talis wait for Raina . I can take care of my sister . " He a.s.sured the worried husband before taking Kyera from him . Clovis was unsure, but Raina needed him and if anyone could take care of Kyera it was her brother the other 'K' .

"I am fine… just dizzy from the baby . " Kyera replied her hand coming to rest on the child . As if complying with its mothers subtle hint it kicked against her hand . She smiled weakly at the child .

"Are you sure?" Clovis asked and Kyera nodded as Kendrick guided her toward the doorway . Her lies were painfully see through at the moment and she couldn't do much better . It was best to just get her out . She smiled at him and let her brother lead her to the back of the stage .

In the back, behind the stage, Kendrick set Kyera down on a crate . There was no one back here, since all the performances were on the other side and prep work was done backstage . This area was designed to be storage, neat and out of the way . It overlooked the low quarter that was now bustling with life . Many s.h.i.+fters had taken up residence there since their Princess became a princess of this land .

"Kyera, what did you see? I watched the magic pulse and I know that look . Father gets the same dazed expression when he looks into the Orbs of Fate . " Kendrick explained as he knelt down in front of her, her eyes trying to find something deeper in her . His concern was growing, that blackness within was easier to see now, still chained but soon… it wouldn't be . He had no idea what affect that would have . What were her powers truly? She could already rewrite death… what else could there be for a demiG.o.ddess?

"I saw a battle . s.h.i.+fters I think, s.h.i.+fters and humans fighting alongside and against one another . So much blood and death I could smell it, Kendrick . My senses, all five of them were there . " Kyera sounded slightly hysterical . Her voice filled with disbelief and denial . What she saw couldn't be true . He could see in those cub like tiger eyes that whatever she saw terrified her .

"Yes, and? Kyera, tell me . " Kendrick tried to ask soothingly . He wanted so badly to wrap his arms around her and sooth the fear away but he needed to know . He couldn't stop what he didn't know was coming .

"I can't … it was just a bad dream . A nightmare . " Kyera tried to struggle against the emotions inside her . Desperately pus.h.i.+ng that image away . Kendrick sighed deeply .

"A nightmare wide awake?" Kendrick tried to gently break it to her .

"Yes, a waking nightmare nothing more . " She replied but even to her own ears it sounded weak, feeble . Kendrick took her hands and she looked away trying not to meet those eyes that bore into her soul .

"You are awake, Kyera . You have been sleeping for years, since the day you were born, but your powers are waking up . What you truly are is waking up . You can't hide from what you saw or it will happen . Even what your most afraid of, it will happen . " Kendrick tried to explain, half expecting Kyera to lash out at him . Instead both her arms wrapped around his neck and she broke into tears . The words she whispered into his ear made his blood run cold .

He wrapped both arms around his little sister and began rocking gently to make the tears subside . The words "My body lay next to Raina's . " Echoed in his mind . The fact she had tried so hard to ignore in that image fell from Kyera's lips . She couldn't protect Raina from this… because she would already be dead .
