"unfortunately born" 53

"There's a chance you might awaken a magical power once you come of good age and get an amazing affinity...but only the elders can decide that and relay it to Father"

Fairy who was above Asahel's head had its ears pricked as he heard what Ramona said

His been a caretaker for several masters and different types of world, and his seen a great deal of supernatural occurrence (well he still hasn't remembered much)

But he can't remember how they were, now that Ramona had said this maybe that's what Dana was using 

'magic.....but this world seems so plain and if there's any magical power around then it's very very low'

Ramona seeing she had gotten Asahel's attention smirked and continued, of course she still didn't let go of her 

"I heard once you are about to turn adult age you're called in by the elders and some sort of ritual is done for you and after that you get a magical power.....ohhhhh Asahel I can't wait....I really really can't wait"

Ramona held her two cheeks and couldn't stop squirming like a worm in the bath tub

(Fairy does this mean they're people like me?)

{I believe so but Master we really need to talk...hurry up and come in already}

Fairy couldn't help but say

"Anyway so that's awesome right.....now tell me why would you wanna leave such a place"

"Personal reasons..... I'm done bathing I need to sleep I'm tired"

"Ohhh right.....right I forgot you're a newbie and your body will get exhausted from such training.... alright let's go have supper and then watch the sky I bet you'll be able to sleep much better when you do because that's what I do every night before sleeping"

Asahel felt like she didn't have a will of her own as Ramona once again brought her out from the bath room, cleaned up themselves, changed clothes and went to line up for food

Asahel stood in line in front of Ramona and couldn't help but look around

Now that she was closer she was able to see how they were arranged 

This area had children in Ramona's age group and below, they were little to no adults, 

The few adults were either serving the food, gathering the very little ones just around the corner

"It..feels warm right?"

Ramona spoke with smiles on her face 

"Hmmmm it does"

"Hehe....just wait until tomorrow you'll love what's gonna happen, any time we perform and it's over there's alot of wonderful things to eat and share I really can't wait.....it's like tomorrow should just come already"

[From Author: if only she knew tomorrow would probably be her last]

Soon their turn reached and they got their food. 

Compared to what Asahel ate back at the Merchant town in Mariam's home this food wasn't close to be compared buttttttt Asahel's cooking was much worst than this 

Asahel quickly ate her food and stood up, once she dropped her plates she started walking back to the cave she used to stay but before she could go too far Ramona already held on to her 

"Don't tell me you gonna go sleep on that rock..... seriously were do you come from..hehe"

Before Asahel could say anything Ramona already pulled her towards the opposite direction of where she wanted to go

Asahel was starting to get irritated, this was becoming tiresome

"Asahel...hey....hello"

Asahel who was a little lost was called back

"What?"

"That's mean you totally ignored me I wanted to show you the stars I watch every night"

"Fine but after that I'd like to be alone"

"Hahaha.....no can do we're stuck with each other hahahah...."

Fairy was sweating bullets because right now that wasn't funny to his master

Finally Ramona brought Asahel to a quiet place that was like a small hill well it was a rocky hill 

Once they found somewhere to sit down Ramona pointed at the sky and mentioned each star she had named 

"We move around alot and sometimes we never go back to where we once were and things don't always remain the same when we return but when night comes these stars are the same....I've given them names too..that's Shirley, that's Mia that's James that's Monica..."

Ramona continued mentioning the star's names one by one

"Asahel I know you wanna leave but trust me this place is the best, when I was back in my home town I was worthless and on the verge of dieing but here I've been given a chance and hope to continue,

All the children here are just like you and me....there's nothing out there for us... we're unfortunate just to be born and then thrown away or beaten to our deaths at least here everyone is happy and we can have powers too"

Asahel who was feeling irritated a while ago had calmed down, she didn't know why she felt sentimental listening to what Ramona said 

"Unfortunately born huhhh?"

"Yes..... Asahel....I mean alot of children are indeed fortunate but what about people like us... please don't go stay here with me.....in truth I had a sister and she's almost like you quiet, alone and frightened I really wish I had found this place sooner before....."

Ramona was talking when she began to shook in between her words as tears streamed down her eyes

"I really wish I was able to save my sister that's why I wanna save alot of children just like us and I don't want you to miss this opportunity"

Asahel felt like she was in a complicated situation

"Ramona do you wanna see more amazing stars?"

"Sniff.....sniff....huhhh ok"

"Alright then close your eyes and don't open them until I say so"

Ramona raised her brow in question but saw that she wouldn't receive an answer unless she did as she was told, so she closed her eyes

Asahel opened a portal and enveloped themselves within it soon they were inside the space

{Master...what are you doing did you forget what I said about not being able to send people out once they're inside?}

(I remember)

{Then why did you bring her in}

Asahel looked at Fairy 

(It's obvious I didn't bring her in here to conquer the space so I believe I'll be able to send her out)

Before Fairy could ask again Ramona spoke up

"Can I open my eyes now"

"Sure you can"

Once Ramona opened her eyes what greeted her was a beautiful sky full of stars and flying creatures

"Wowwww....it's soooooooo beautiful I can't believe this"

Asahel unknowingly smiled and felt happy within her.

"How did you do this.....this place is awesome like it's sooooo amazing.....and there are so much stars I can't possibly name them all"

"Well....it's something I've always had within me"

"Wait don't tell me.....you already have your magical powers?"
