The Joining of the Seven

Ella searched for the tree that was her sister, Lori. She knew someone was following her. She turned naturally, "Hello Katrina!" The face in the shadow stepped out. Katrina was Ella's sister; one of the seven children of The Good Witch and Wizard. Katrina said gloomily, "Someone is tracking us, I don't see a name on him." She could see true names on people, but not on Mr. Nameless. There was a great mystery about him. She came to acompany her sister. She was also a fortune teller as well. "Something will happen soon that will shape history," She didn't say if this was good or evil. She was a mystery even to Ella. Ella was good at enchantments and charms. She carried a flute with with Lori's energy in it. It was to track her. They wandered secretly until they found Alec kneeling by the tree Lori now had taken the shape of. That was her, alright! Ella teared up," We need to get the rest of our brothers and sisters to help her. We're stronger together!" Alec looked up,"No they'll draw attention, remember Atlantis?!" Ella was quiet and felt the tree with her eyes closed. "She says the stranger is watching, and we must move. He's very powerful. Look for the Shaman," Ella summed up. It took three days to find the Shaman. There weren't many these days, but this had been there for each birth of the seven. He was a friend of Lori's family. They knocked on a broken down door, and Alec walked right in even when Ella hissed. She thought her brother was being rude to step across the threshold of a person's sanctuary without invitation. Katrina was alert when a hand grabbed her shoulder. She whipped around fast and almost punched the intruder, only to see it was a commoner. "He's gone! The shadow took him. Leave now or your in great danger." Katrina spoke, " What is it you know about this shadow?" He looked at her with unease, "It is the great evil, a dark fae from the Realm. There's a prophecy...." Alec ran to the man, he spoke fearfully, "seven of an ancient family has the power to destroy it, but we don't belive in such a folklore, atleast not the lot in the village. They would show themselves if they were so powerful, and mighty, though maybe they don't know of this evil yet. I am a believer that an uprising will come, though. We need salvation badly."

After a couple of drinks with this man, he nodded off in a nearby tavern; the Dragon's Eye. Katrina spoke, " The prophecy is real, I know it. I think it's our family. We should contact the others." Alec had the power of telepathy. He closed his eyes, "They're coming!" He opened his eyes, sea-green, and rubbed his temples. As they waited, they leanred on some gossip of the village folk. Katrina pretending to read a book. She already knew it's contents, having finished when she touched the cover. They came soon.  Dimitri, Miles, and Charlie entered the dim lighting of the tavern. Dimitri glanced at the fireplace and fire erupted, warming them all. Miles read the minds of his siblings, even though they hated it. Charlie moved a enormous object with her mind, a wine glass.

As all of them talked, they decided to help Lori first. They needed all of them for thier magic to work. As they all put thier hand on the bark, thier was a loud popping noise, and Lori was back to her original form. "Thanks, ya'll!" Lori said gratefully. Thier was much hugging, except Katrina, who saw something that disturbed her vision. "He's here!" Lori knew whom she mean't. They didn't need to turn to hear the icy voice, "Gotcha!"
