The cold Truth chapter 20

were I was going was not my favorite place to be at the forest of my home only hours away the trip was nice and amazing and I got to know every one just a little bit more then I did before we laughed and sang but what was still at the back of my mind was my mother I wanted to know if she was ok I did miss her I loved her but my father was unkind to her and I don't know what has become of her the one think that keeps me sane was the people around me and the calmness that I have gathered from them I let my mind wonder for a little bit not to ken on any thing just letting the thoughts come and go and when my mind finely calms down I speak to every one to night I will go to my home and you all follow me into the unknown to I thank you for that I let that sit in the air I go on I have grown to care for each and every one of you don't let me down to night I will have your back I hope that you will have mine we will always will Cressida the said one by one it made my hart sing with joy then we go tomorrow and see what has become of my home  

The rid there was painfully quite and every step I made put me that much closer to the village when we came close I could smell death and it was thick I wanted to turn and run the other way but I went on when we came to the gate that led into the village body's hung for the gate I didn't want to look but I did it was the village elders there body's were black and the smell was awful I shot them down and went through the gate if that wasn't bad enough when I got in side I could see that he had tied and chained every one down they look close to death but still alive they looked up and hoped filled there eyes Cressida is that you one said as she looked up to me the others looked yes it's me I said and took off my hood and mask off dearest your mother she is ...no !its ok don't talk I had to hold back the tears as I said that I will fix this wait here and traps shot off I shields where up before anything hit me every one do not more yet again my father shows his true colors I slowly get down from night Adonis come to me but slowly next Coastal to the right two steps then Cody I need you to come all the way to me he did click the changes fell from the people can we move no that is only the first part of the puzzle now flex I need you to take ten steps back then every one to get down do I make myself clear yes ok 1 2 3 I could feel my self shaking 4 my hart wants to jump out of my chest 5, 6 I jumped on to night this is going to be crazy 8 9 breath 10 the got down and I jumped Slicing the arrows in two's click and landing you can move now they got up from the ground thank you very much they called out I am not done yet I said my father has hurt you in the worst way and I will see his punishment though may the gods see his punishment far worse then I do to day

I got back on to night Calista I want you and the others to care for all these people  Adonis I want you with me we have something to take care of I left and I wanted to scream and shout and hit things but I didn't I would hold on to this feeling and use it to help me fight as I went up the path His paw where a comfortable sound at my back Adonis stop what he said with his eyes do not move you take Another step and I could lose you he stopped your about to step on another trap and this one I can stop it from hurting you don't move I had missed it and he almost ...your going to have to go back and go around he looked to me and to the spot yes there he then backed up I could tell he didn't like that idea but we didn't have a choice I will see you up there ok

I could feel the tears start to come but I pulled then deep down but it I could feel myself fall apart right there it hurt to see the people of my home tided up like Carol it hurt to see the dead hang and rout were everyone is reminded of it it was to much to see

I don't know what will happen when I get there or what he has done to my home or the place I called how I have one thing on my my I need to know if my mother is safe 

 I round to my house there he was sitting on the front porch I stopped and looked around this cant be right and I was right I went to get off but froze as I saw his smile night two steps back he moved back the traps were every were  I didn't know how to explain it it was move of a feeling and I didn't want to tack any changes stay here father had a way with numbers he only liked even numbers his traps were always like that when I was young I got off what is this game father he said nothing just smiled what is his game I look back on what he tout me it was a game before but now not so much its like he new I was coming I take a step and another I move I new his ticks I made quick work of his trap or so I though the sound of a door opening and closing cote my ears my father had ran out the back no not this time I ran after him rage strewed in me and when he finally stopped why would you do this why would you hurt the people here why I yelled but he still said nothing father look at me he pulled his sword out why is he daughter its time for me to kill you what I said but when he finally look at me he look crazed I new that my father was not there any more I new that I had to kill my father right then and there or he would kill me father I am sorry I pulled my mask up and hid behind my hood I took out my weapons the very ones he gave me I am sorry I whispered he was as fast as I remembered but I was better I almost took his arm off but he was fast I was cut on the hand but that didn't stop me the clash of weapons was endless but when Cressida was nocked to the floor he mind pulled out the worst memory she was crying now as the time he hurt her over and over to try and treat a less the times he messed with her mind flashed in her eyes she wanted to cry let him win just as he had many times but she had something this time something worth not giving in she broke the mind link right though his chest her blade hit and her father fell to the ground I am sorry father I never wanted this I just I am sorry she felt pane and relief fill her he was gone and could no longer hurt any one but he was gone form her life for good she dried her eyes this will be the last time I cry for him she died her eyes and went into the house mother we're are you I looked everywhere up stairs and in there room the only place I have left to look is the storm seller I open it and here sound mother Cressida is that you mother are you ok I went to walk to her she yelled to stop I didn't move he tried to kill me he has traps Evey were your last try at killing me father I thought to my self it's I am ok mother I am going to get you out ok I step back from her and look at the floor it's the same as every trap he made I took it slowly he rushed this one with one last step I was over to my mother I hugged her I am sorry he did this he was gone I couldn't stop him she cried out as I held her up mother you did all that you could for him he was way gone before I left you just didn't see it the night you left I saw something bracket in him it was like someone took his hart away mother your ok right yes nothing but cuts and a few bruise let's get out of here I think that I can help with that Adonis thanks goodness your here I need your help with getting out of here is it the same as the other one out front yes but messer oh I see well I see were you stepped so sent her that way and if she mess up I will get her thanks ok mother frist hold out your hands ok I cut the chains that held her to the wall how did you she yelped now walk the way I came stepping right were I left my foot prints ok what happeneds if I don't you may die really yes she stepped out on to the frist print and then the next and the next one she made it to the other side of the traps I crossed faster then before I new the path I make it out of the seller and out of the dark I got a better idea of what my father did to her she was bad the blood was dried but I could see were it came from you look bad you don't look to good yourself I was banging up pretty good but I new this pain and how to dill with it she did not mother when we meet up with everyone you will get looked at but I no you will even if it had to be by me you will fine she said but I feel fine I know you do but I can see many things that could be wrong mother please let me help you ok dear if it makes you feel better I will get looked at thank you

The time I spent thinking on the way back to the village was hard when I got there every one was looking at me and Adonis I start the speech

I came back here today to stop a man who was out of his mind and to save the people I care about I may not know you very well but I care for every single one of you that is why I had to do something unspeakable to day I killed my father or the man I thought was my father to save you all you will no long have to worry about him you are free to do what ever you want with this information I gave you but I asked you to not hurt any one that has helped you or who is dear to me I know this village can come back to life with a lot of hard work

Thank the gods that she came back to us they all chaired and the might shifter who saved us all to the one who freed us to the ones we lost before you came they cheers echo off

The trees the rest of the day was spent cleaning up the mess my father made but by the time everyone and thing was back as it was it was dark out I had crimson and Azzara clean up.my home and remove all of the traps form front yard and the seller the last think I had Nova do was to burn my father's body I didn't want any changes the last think I did was look my mother over nothing to bad but when I asked her if I could look deeper she asked what I meant I asked her to open her mind and I was going to look if any changes have been made and if they have I would

as you can ok now go you look exhausted I feel it I  went up the sters and into my old room it felt so small from be fore now that I look at everything it not the same that walls were confining and the small window did nothing to help but I went to my bed this is not my home any more it like a empty shack I lie down I tack my weapons off and set them on the stand next to me I put my cloak on a hook and went to dig in my old draws I fond it my sleeping panes and shirt I missed them I went  to put it on but was asked if I was going to wait for him to leave I said it didn't mater I chained right there In front of him but he was in shock I had new scars and old one from were father had worked me to hared and I didn't pay enough attention why are you so beet up its nothing I ....didn't want to lie to him but I didn't want him to be mad ether so I was just quite Adonis not now but your a mess dose every one else know no but how every time I do something its hard to keep going but what always brings me to the point to were I keep going is the pain the love and the sacrifice that I have to give just so that others can live I was told by the man I killed to day that I was a weapon and thinking about it made me think I was but it's how you use the weapon I was born to love ,care and save people and if I have to were the scars for others then I will don't go and tell everyone the only other person who knows is Calista she fond out by the mess I made of my self when I got her out of her chains but why this all looks bad this had to have hurt you how did you bare it I didn't mostly I was unconscious now come here I look at him he had tears in his eyes no you don't ....I didn't want you to feel this way thats why I never told you I was pulled into a hug I am sorry I wasn't there to help you no you don't have to say that I didn't want you to ever have to worry you but you do every time you go out and fight you worry me every time I see you hurt I feel the pain that you do but this what I see now in not far you cold have shard a little more of your pain with me I don't want you to ever be like that again I love you Cressida the room was quite its been a long time sense I have hard that I was shaking he just held me didn't let me go before I new what was going on I was crying and I couldn't get it to stop as I remembered everything  as my mind went back to
