CHAPTER 10

BEFORE RILEY COULD even react, the hardened cocoon split open wide.

He fell into the gooey mess onto the woman's body as they both followed the flood of goo to the ground. The moment their bodies hit the earth, a ricochet of magic exploded out of his hands spreading out all around them. The Power Source began to pulse and collect the magic, surrounding both Riley and the woman in an orb of magical energy.

Their bodies hovered just above the ground, inside the magical energy. The young woman sucked in a coarse breath, her first, her eyelids flickering wildly. But before Riley was able to reach out and try to help her, things began to happen that he had no control over. But it was like a sudden control and awareness had come over the newly birthed woman. Her limp-like body stiffened, muscles flexing as she tried them out. Her eyes sharpened, taking on a living and determined focus. And then she smiled. A knowing smile that held tremendous confidence.

Her eyes closed and like she'd simply wished it, the magical energy surrounding the two of them faded and they slowly planted their feet on the ground. The gooey pinkish mess she'd been living inside of vanished, like it never existed, taking what was left of the cocoon, with it. Modern day clothes materialized over her cleaned skin, like she'd magicked them from some store shelf. Riley gasped when his own clothes and skin were instantly cleaned and normal again.

But when her eyes flicked upward and caught his own, it gave him pause and he wasn't able to look away from her. He had so many questions. She didn't appear to be much older than him. How odd it must feel to be born an adult? How much did she know of the world?

Enough, he imagined, seeing as she was dressed in modern clothes. Actually, she was dressed like she was ready to kick some major ass. Sturdy boots. Black jeans. Black leather jacket. Dark eyes that claimed purpose and determination.

"Who are you?" He finally choked out the words.

She didn't say anything at first. Instead, rushing over to the Power Source. Now just a knot of deep roots. No one had ever realized the cocoon wasn't even part of the Source. But what happened next, Riley did not expect.

It vanished. The roots. The Source. It disappeared when the young woman touched it.

"What did you do?" he called out.

She spun around, still wearing that knowing smile. It wasn't arrogant, just confident.

"Protecting my future." Her first words spoken. "Protecting our future." She corrected.

"I so do not understand what's going on." And with his exhaustion piling onto the confusion, he found he almost didn't care. Or was too tired to care.

The young woman approached him and reached out her soft hand to his cheek.

"Thank you, Riley Deane. For using your gift to free me."

"Why me?"

"Only someone from the Garudian Bloodline could free me. There are only two of you left. Therefore, my time has finally come.
