CHAPTER ONE (2): URGENCY IS NEEDED
----------------------------------------
At a lovely grass clearing, a family sat on a checkered blanket while eating a light lunch. Three men, a woman, and a small child sit peacefully in the sunshine. "Alexia, eat your lunch or you won't get any dessert!" Says a tanned man with light grey eyes that almost shimmer with a purple hue. "And don't you encourage her, Brian!"
"Yes Daddy." Says Alexia whose beautiful eyes slowly close in the sun. Her eyes blink back open and stare at the group. The left is the color of a frozen lake like her Third’s while the right is a light grey with an almost purple shimmer like her Sire’s. She unsteadily toddles to the third man.
Brian, a pale-skinned man with fire-red hair laughs. "It's okay Alexia, even if you don't eat your lunch, you'll still get dessert." He stops laughing as a woman with pale skin and eyes the color of a frozen lake glares at him. "It'll be fine, Alpha. If she misses a meal, it'll be just fine." He nuzzles into her and kisses his mark on her shoulder before she lovingly caresses his slightly bulging stomach. "Back me up, Adam!" He says to a pale white man with very elegant features and ocean-blue hair.
"Silly Papa! Sede wants me to eat too!" The toddler giggles as she nibbles on the small sandwich given to her by Adam before walking over to Brian for cuddles.

The man in question stretches up to nibble on Alexia's stomach. "As a Water Fae, I just want to eat you, Alexia!" He says before she giggles so much she drops the sandwich. He laughs and brings out his bright blue feathered wings and flares them out. "See! As the only Water Fae here, I say we-" An echoing bang sound makes all the birds in the nearby trees quickly fly away.
In an instant, Adam rolls over and shields the toddler and Brian. "Brian! Take Alexia and go to Alanni's Circle's house! We can't let them have the three girls! Alanni, Matt, let's hunt."
Before Brian can even move, three more gunshots come out and hit Alanni, Matt, and Adam. Brian then scurries to pick up Alexia, but before he can port out to a safe place, he gets snatched by two men wearing masks. "I guess you'll be coming too." The first man leers at him while the second holds Brian and Alexia in place. "To the Reckoning!" shouts the first man while touching an old boot to the second.
After a few minutes go by, Adam twitches in place. “Fuck!" He says while touching the spot he was shot. “No!” He exclaims seeing the two bodies on the ground. First, he slowly shuffles over to Matt’s dead body and lowly moans before crawling to Alanni's dead body. He screams in pain before his feathers flair and turn completely black. He quickly gets to his feet and sends a message to Alanni's circle. "Quickly! Brian and Alexia just got kidnapped. Alanni and Matt are dead and I'm afraid Brian and Alexia might quickly join them. Port to me in five minutes, I'll port to Brian's side and get Alexia to safety first." He ports away and nothing is left but the sound of wind gusting through the once happy glen.
