The Truth about Angels, Demons and Magic

Coming home from my friends house that night was cold. Mainly because it was November and i was walking along the shoreline. Which was also the road. My town was small, not even on most maps. The island we live on isnt on most maps either. My town is Mondoon, the island is in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. People call it Skull Island, if they survive to leave here. Its hard to get here, but us, the people who live here, we're tough. And stubborn. We arent a tropical island, like Hawaii, no where near that. We're more like a little hurricane, in the winter and fall. Any other time its as hot as death here. I pulled my jacket closer to me. Too bad Clairas mom wasnt home to give me a ride. I saw some headlights and moved to the side of the road. It stopped right beside me. "Hey, Candy. Need a ride?" I smiled. My older brother, Vance always had my back. "Sure." I climbed into the passengers seat. "Put your seatbelt on." "But Vance-" "But nothing, its friday. The adults drink, heavily. Put it on." "Fine." I put it on and he turned around and we headed home. "You know, this jeep isnt good for the environment. You should trade it for something else." "Oh really, like what?" "A scooter, or a bike. Something like that." He smiled and lifted his eyebrow. "Maybe you can." "If you dont i will." "You're not going to let this go are you?" "No." "You have got to be the most stubborn ten year old environmentalist i know." "Im the only stubborn ten year old environmentalist you know. This town is way to small for another one." "Yeah, i guess so." He reached over and rustled my hair. I smoothed it back into place and i saw some lights in front of us. "They dont look like they're slowing down." "Yeah. I know. Candy, do me a favor and get in the back." "Why?" "Get me a blanket." I nodded and undid my seatbelt, then i climbed into the back. I threw him a thick blanket and was about to climb back in front when i jolted back. Last thing i saw was my brother reaching for the phone and the car that hit us stop. Then i blacked out.

I woke up in a field of flowers, with two paths in front of me. I sat there for a moment, then two people in hoods came over. "Wheres Vance?" They didnt seem to hear me. "Its not her time yet, Daimos. Let her back." "It was not my fault, Soarz." "Daimos. I can tell when you lie." "Fine, i will let her back. But her brother......." I stood up, they both looked startled. "Leave my brother alone." "Maybe you should slowly let the brother back." "So i can keep him for a while?" "A very short while." They i blacked out, and i was in a white room, a hospital room.

I sat up and looked around. "Hello? Vance?" "Ms. Shepert. Glad you're awake." "What happened?" "Just a drunk driver, you were in a crash. You'll be fine though." I nodded. "And Vance?" "Well, he didnt fare so well. Candy, your brother is in a coma. He should come out of it soon." "Daimos." "What?" "Nothing. Am i able to go home yet?" "Yes, dear." "Thanks, mom." "No problem, sweetie." Yes, my mom is the local doctor. The news probably hurt her as well. I ran out the door and next door, to our house. Mom said that it was easier for her work, to live so close. I ran past my dad and to my room. I sat on my bed and took my pillow and put it on my lap. I heard a knock on my door. "Honey, i heard the news im sorry. I knew that you two were close." He didnt come in, i had the place boobytrapped so no one besides Vance and I could enter our room. I buried my face in the pillow and screamed. Then the vase i made for Vance two years ago flew across the room and crashed into the wall. The door flew open and my dad was caught in a net. He sighed. "If only you and your brother put as much time in school as you did on your traps and inventions, you guys would be genius'." "Yeah, i know." "So what happened?" "I dont know. I guess it just slipped. I was looking at it, and it slipped." "Oh, ok. Can you get me out of this?" I nodded and pressed the button that undid the net. He fell and left.

It was three years ago today that happened. Vance is still in a coma, he can digest and things like that. But he cant move, speak, see anything. He stays at home at all times. Daimos lied. He lied. Hes a Demon, cruel and heartless. He knew that this would hurt me. I visit with them all the time, in that place i met them the first time. I call it the Inbetween, thats where they, and my brother are. A tear fell down my face as i ran into the forest. People thought it dangerous, because they hear me practicing my so-called gift out there. I've learned to control it. Accidents like the vase havent happened in a long time. I've learned to harness and use everything around me, so nothing like that ever happens again.
