Rose and I were talking. We were just bored and hanging around the house. I heard a noise outside and became scared. A few random vampires I had never seen before rushed to us quickly and grabbed us. I kicked and fought. "Lucian!" I screamed and tears fell. I knew he was probably not even close enough to hear, but I tried because I had no other choice. The vampire that had a hold of me pinned me down, and went right for my neck. I cried and screamed.

{Rose} I backed up slowly, starting to shake. Why did this always happen... why couldn't they just leave us alone? For a moment, they seemed hardly to notice; then I cringed and whispered, almost inaudibly, "Crystal..." It wasn't spoken even above a whisper, but the vampire who had a hold of her seemed to hear it. He released her and stood, his eyes narrowing and his lips curving into a slight smirk when he saw me. I backed up more... maybe I could run... yeah, right. He left Crystal alone and took a step towards me. I backed up more... and felt the wall press against my back. Great, so now I was trapped. The vampire stepped towards me, flashing his fangs and making me gasp in fear as I remembered Lacey. I was dead... I suddenly felt a strange sensation in my hands, almost like a... burning, but not painful. I raised them to look at them, and blinked several times in surprise, because they were glowing, bright. Acting upon pure instinct, I slowly raised them until they were facing forward, palms out. The light glowed brighter... the abnormal burning sensation intensifying... And then the air rippled in front of me. It actually rippled, like something had somehow distorted space. It was like the visual effects that extreme heat causes, but somehow different - it didn't seem natural. The next thing I knew, the vampire that had been drawing near to me had been hurtled straight through a window. My eyes grew wide. What exactly had I just done? I heard soft footsteps behind me and whirled, half expecting whatever had just happened to be some sort of trick, but it was only Aidan. He smirked as he stepped up beside me, fire flaring on his palm and reflecting somewhat eerily in his blue eyes. "What are you doing?" I whispered, but he ignored me as he gazed calmly at the two other vampires. "You're messing with two Mystics," he said calmly, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Two young Mystics, but not so young we won't destroy you. I suggest you leave." They ran. I stared at him, my eyes widened. "Um... what exactly... just... happened?" I asked slowly. His smirk turned into his usual wide, friendly smile. "You're fourteen," he said calmly. "Your powers just kicked in. Happy birthday, little sister."

"Thank you both. Especially you, Rose. I'm very thankful. My blood was almost drained.." I said calmly, smiling lightly at both of them.

"You're welcome, Crystal..." I said softly, staring at my hands in open shock. I still couldn't believe something like that had just come from them...

"You're okay, right Rose?" I asked softly and sweetly. I knew this was very confusing and unexpected for her. I wanted to do anything I could to make sure she was fine.

"I... I think so," I said faintly. "I mean, I guess I knew it was coming, but... wow. I didn't think it would be that... dramatic?" "You're part of one of the most powerful magical families there are," Aidan murmured softly. "What did you really expect?"

I giggled softly. "Well then... I guess we ought to be thankful that you're powers kicked in now. If not we probably would've been screwed..." I said, sighing lightly.

I quietly nodded my agreement. "Why is it always us this happens to?" I asked softly, more rhetorical than anything.

I sighed softly. "Our lives suck, no?" I asked calmly. I knew that of course the answer would be yes. Everyone's lives here sucked, but compared to the normal Amenian's mine, Rose, Fate and Sorina's lives really sucked the most. Anyone around us also could be added into that. We all had terrible lives we've had to go through. We're each other's strength and hope. If one of us were to fall the rest of us will slowly as well...

"Indeed," I murmured softly, tucking part of my red hair behind my ear.

{Days Later...} I was walking around the house. It has been very peaceful around here lately. Everything's become a routine. Of course I knew it wouldn't last. Something bad would happen soon... I was tidying around the house when I heard a knock at the door. I smiled softly when I found it was Lucian. I opened the door and smiled at him. "Hey." I said softly.

I gave her a lazy half-grin, leaning on her door frame. "Hello, Princess," I said mildly. "You know, for once I'm not here because of a dire life-or-death situation." I chuckled softly.

"Well that certainly is a good thing. I was just thinking to myself how lately we've somehow managed to keep from trouble." I said giggling softly. I moved away from the door a bit. "You can come in." I said softly.

I grinned. "Actually, I have a better idea. You busy?"

"No, not at all." I said softly.
