Riley's second chance
Chapter 2- The Happening

Chapter 2- The Happening

I wake up remembering that I was reincarnated and find myself in complete darkness. I try to feel around but all I feel is a barrier and liquid around me.  

I guess, I'm in my mother's womb.

I wait for a while hoping that my mom will give birth to me soon because I am so bored. I have literally nothing to do in here but think. I can kick but, I don't really want to give my mother discomfort. I really wish that I could have woke up when she gave birth to me but, I had to wait until she was ready.

I guess I should go back to sleep.

How many days has it been?  4 days? 3 weeks? 9 months?  Someone please tell me, I am seriously about to lose my mind from this dark and gloomy place. I have no one to talk to me except myself and I am so lonely. It's dark in here and I feel like I am floating in outer space or something. The only good about being here is that it is warm, I get food ,and sometimes if I am lucky I hear someone talking or singing. I figure that it was my mother.

I hope I can get out of here soon.

I wake up and feel pain all over me.

ah!!!!!! What the hell is happening? Ahhh!!!  Stop pulling me

"Almost there Serenity just keep pushing." I hear a female voice say.

oh I see, mom is giving birth to me but, why does it hurt so much. I thought only the mother gets hurt

???: "Push Serenity push"

Serenity: "I can't .... I can't push anymore"

Yes you damn can.

???: "You can do it, keep trying. Healing"

I suddenly feel all of the pain go away and feel more energy coming from me.

What was that?

???: "I see the head!! Keep pushing."

I feel a cold breeze on top of my head and start wiggling out to help my mom.

Serenity: "AHHHHHHH!"

Suddenly I feel that I am out from the womb. I feel arms on me wrapping something around me. I try to open my eyes but, can't.

I guess my eyes aren't developed yet. That was a lot of work. I'm tired let me just go to sleep.

???: "Its a girl Serenity."

Serenity: "That's great. Luke would have loved to seen her. Can I hold her?"

???: "Of course and Luke would have been happy to his daughter."

Serenity: "Why is her fur black?"

???: "I don't know but, maybe it will change when she grows up."

Serenity: "I doubt it but, I does look good on her. I hope Leo doesn't get the wrong idea"

???: "Leo knows that you wouldn't cheat on Luke. He will love his niece and if he doesn't I will beat the shit out of him myself"

Serenity: "Thanks Erika."

Erika: "Of course what are best friends for and you should probably get some rest."

Serenity: "yea, I'm tired."

Serenity soon drifted off to sleep and Erika took the little baby girl to the royal den were her children were.

I woke up hungry. I sniffed around, since my eyes were still closed, try to food. I didn't small food but, I could smell other things around. I smelt sweat, blood, and other scents.

I must have gotten a Demi-human race, since my senses were heighten but I couldn't be sure because I haven't seen myself yet.

I tried to move were the other scents were but, my body was to week to move.

Guess I am going to have to make some noise.

Riley: "aoww, muuh"

I tried to cry but, it came out as a whimper from a dog. I was suddenly picked up and cradled in someone's arms.

???: "Are you hungry little one? Your aunt Erika will feed you."

After the women said that she was my aunt, She stuffed something in my mouth. I started resisting until sweet creamy liquid was in my mouth. I sucked all I could before drifting off to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Erika put Riley down on the bed and couldn't help but smile. When Serenity was naming the pup, she picked Erika's mother's name Riley. Erika was so happy that she couldn't help but, cry.  Erika vowed that day to always look after and take care of Riley even though she was planning to do that from the beginning. I hope that my pups would come out cute like Riley. Erika thought while rubbing her pregnant stomach. Erika was about to lay down on the bed until she heard a knock from the door.

Erika: "Come in."

Erika watched as Leo, her husband, quietly walked in and sat in a chair next to the bed.

Leo: "Who is that?"

Erika was confused by the question because only her and little Riley were in the and everyone new that they were their waiting for Serenity to get food for herself.

Erika: "This is Riley, Serenity's pup. She is beautiful isn't she.

Leo scrunched up his face before sniffing the air. Leo smelt Erika with the pup's scent on her. The pup also smelt like Serenity and Luke but, he also smelt something else.

Leo: "Who else touched her?"

Erika: "Only me and Serenity touched her why?"

Leo: "Smell her, she has another scent on her."

Erika was still confused by Leo's questions but, still smelt Riley and she noticed that Riley had another scent on her.

Erika: "That is probably her natural smell."

Leo: "Or a demon?" (growled)

Erika: "Leo there is no demon in this child, I would have notice."

Leo: "You don't know the priest said it was possible when you and Serenity was attacked and she was poison protecting you."

Erika: "Leo this child is perfectly fine."

Leo: "Then why is she black and hasn't open her eyes yet."

Erika: "She is just tired and what does her fur(her hair) have to do with anything."

Leo: "It has to do with  a lot of things. Luke was red and Serenity has white fur."

Erika: "She is just unique. So stop treating her like some kind of demon. She is you niece and I know if Luke was still around he wouldn't want you treating her like this."

Leo: "Okay, but bad things are going to start happening because of her and when it does I will not have you or our pups around her."

Erika: "Even if something does happen, I will still stay with her."

Leo: "I will-"

The door swung wide open and a maid and soldier came bursting threw.

???: "My king, something has happened."

Leo: "What William? You see me hear talking to your queen and you dare interrupted us. You are my Captain of my Royal Guard."

???: "Queen Erika, Serenity- ,she- ,they- , please come now."

Erika: "What happen Maria?"

William and Maria: "Please come."

Erika and Leo both notice something was very wrong because William and Maria wouldn't look them up in the eyes. Usually they were both comfortable talking to each other but, Maria had deep fear in her eyes and William looked ashamed.

Erika: "Of course."

They all followed William as he led them towards something.  Everyone was quiet but, you could hear Maria sniffling quietly. Erika walked closer towards Maria and started comforting her whispering little words in her ear saying that everything was okay.

William: "We are here."

They all stopped in front of courtyard door and Erika and Leo noticed that everyone was had sad expressions on their faces. Leo was about to open the door before William stopped him.

Leo: "Yes?"

William: "You must be prepared before you go out there and Maria and Queen Erika shouldn't go out there."

Erika and Maria: "We are going."

William: "But-"

Erika: "But nothing, William open this door now."

William looked like he wanted to say something but, he knew from the faces that Erika and Maria were giving him that he should open the door. William breathed in and out deeply then opened the door. When the door was open all Erika could hear was screams and cries coming from outside. Erika and Leo walked outside and what they seen made. Erika cry out falling to her knees. Leo was holding his wife while looking at the scene in shock. In front of them was Serenity hanging from the wall with swords going through her.
