I sat back down in the chair and I watched as my mother walked to my bed and dropped down onto the mattress. I looked up as my father entered the room. So, the decision was made to lock you in order to protect you. They sensed your power and not all of them were good. And as you grew your powers were becoming uncontrollable.

But even he did not know how to teach or guide you. “And he told us he was there to protect you. Of course we later discovered that he lived a few doors away.” He never once mentioned how he knew where we lived, and your father only had the allotment for about a week at that time, and had never met Mr Peters. “Offering your father help and tips with the allotment. Out of the blue he appeared on our doorstep one morning.” she said. “Then when we moved here Mr Peters showed up. I could barely remember Nana, but I knew that I missed her. Even now after all these years she mourned her mother and I understood. After nana went…” she turned away slightly. We thought about speaking to the Horsemen but our family had not walked in that world for so long we didn’t even know how to enter it. “Nana didn’t know what to do and neither did I. Welsh gold given to her by my father and which had been owned by his grandmother. It was the only piece of gold jewellery that my mother owned. It was gold but I knew that my mum loved silver. She remained standing and then started playing with her wedding ring. I walked to my desk and sat down in the chair. And we wanted it to stay that way.” she said. “Why have you never told me this before mum? I asked. And if you were happy then flowers would appear from nowhere. If you were upset or hurt, or if you were crying, things would suddenly fly across the room or explode even. “When you were born, your father and I were overjoyed Audrey. But I didn’t know how to use it and neither did Nana.” I saw her chest rise and fall as she drew in a deep breath. The last person to put anything in that trunk was your great grandmother Anna, and Nana and I just made sure that it remained safe.” She ran her hands though her hair and sighed. After centuries and multiple generations, you were chosen. “Do you think that I didn’t want it to be me? For the Loci powers to be mine? Or that Nana didn’t want them for herself? We all wanted it Audrey. “And do you think we wanted to Audrey?” she looked at me waiting for an answer. Did she really think that she could get away with that? Locking my destiny and history from me was unforgiveable. You hid a whole world from me mum.” Nothing could explain or forgive what they had done to me. I leaned back against the window sill and looked at my mum. My mother didn’t get angry often and when she did it was nuclear. “Well, you will listen to me young lady and you will hear it.” I saw a glint of anger flash across my mother’s eyes and her nose flared slightly. “I don’t want to hear it mum.” I interrupted. I didn’t want to have this conversation, but even at my age I still could not defy my mother. I slowly turned around, jerking my chin high. “Look at me Audrey.” I heard the request but I chose to ignore it. His betrayal stung so much more and we had not been able to have a decent conversation since he had been home. I couldn't believe that he had hidden something so big from me. You forced him." I turned to look out the window forcing my mum to stare at my back. Your father and I believed we were doing the right thing." "And I will keep saying it until you believe me. "Yes mum, you've already said that several times." I knew I was sulking and acting childish but they didn't get to hide things from me, lock things in my head and put me at risk in order to keep me safe. We have to talk." she said with a heavy sigh. You didn't have to come home." I replied. "It's only been two weeks mum, and like I already said. "Are you going to talk to me Audrey? It's been weeks." my mum said.
I still didn’t know where he was and although he was in my bad books, the worry was starting to eat at me. My parents had come home a few hours later, no doubt their journey had been prompted by a call from Mr Peters.
I had returned home with the knowledge that I had done what had been asked of me. It had been two weeks since I had left Cymon and the world which he had forced me into. I folded my arms and leaned back against my desk. I knew exactly what I would look like when I reached her age. Her red hair had faded with age and was no longer as vibrant as mine but she was still stunning.
My mum walked into the room and closed the door behind her. I knew that whether I answered or not, the door would open. "Audrey." I heard my mum's soft voice, followed by a sharp rap on my bedroom door. She sat down and leaned back sighing heavily. "Of course there is a reason." said Death as she turned and walked back to her throne. She raised an eyebrow and cocked her head to the side.
