Here is an excerpt to get you started!
Drew let me be until snowflakes
began to drift down from the sky. “Come on, Chloe. We have to go now.”
With tears still staining my
cheeks, I gave my mother‟s grave one last caress and then stood. “All right, I‟m
ready.”
Drew took my hand again and led
me between the plots as best as we could manage. The air outside had chilled
even more than when we arrived. It was cold. Really cold. When we approached
the gates, warmth suddenly filled my stomach and spread through my body.
“Oh, my… what the heck?” I clutched
my stomach as the tingling spread all the way into my fingertips.
“Are you okay?” Drew asked.
“What‟s wrong?”
“I don‟t know.” I shook my
head. Tears threatened to surface again. “I don‟t know.”
“It‟s your senses, Chloe,
telling you something is off.”
Drew and I both spun around and
Drew whipped his gun out from underneath his jacket.
“Who are you?” Drew yelled.
There, sitting atop one of the
gravestones, bathed in the green glow of florescent lights, was a woman. Even
though it was freezing, she barely wore anything, and what she did have on
looked like leather wrapped around her body and a halter top with crude lacing
holding it together. Snowflakes drifted down and passed through her tanned
skin, dissolving into nowhere.
“How do you know me?” I
shouted. “Who are you?”
My stomach was still flooded
with warmth, and it made me feel like I had to pee. I wished I had brought my
gun.
She clicked her tongue and
tossed a wave of dark brown hair over her shoulder. “You do not need your
weapons, my children. I do not come to harm.”
She slid off the gravestone,
and I watched her bare feet sink into the snow. They left no footprints.
“Who are you?” Drew demanded
again.
She moved forward slowly. “I am
your mother, many times over.”
This chick scared me. Was she a
ghost? I moved backward a few steps as she approached, using Drew as a shield,
since he had the gun.
She smiled, her dark eyes
intently focusing on Drew. “Andrew, lower your weapon. You cannot harm me.”
As if under a spell, Drew
lowered his arms and his gun came to rest by his side. “What do you want?”
“I am here to help, Chloe.” She
nodded at me and smiled. “You need the help of your ancestors. Your mother
cannot help you, so I have come to give you guidance.”
The warmth in my stomach turned
into fire in my heart. I can‟t explain it, but I felt the connection with this
apparition. I moved out from behind Drew.
“Who are you?” I whispered.
She lifted her chin arrogantly.
“I am Sostrate, the daughter of Artemis, and as I have told you already, your
mother, many times over.”
“Why are you here?”
“I have come to give you the
guidance your mother cannot give you. It is my duty.”
“Are you a ghost?”
She only shook her head and
gave me a crooked grin. “I am a demi-goddess. I gained immortality from my
mother. I do not come as an apparition, because I cannot die.”
“Holy shit.” Drew actually
dropped his gun in the snow.
I moved forward, not afraid
anymore. I knew she was who she said she was. As we approached each other, I
stretched out my hand, wanting to touch her. She also extended her hand and as
my gloved fingers connected with the solid fingertips of hers, I gasped. “You‟re
real.”
She nodded. “Of course.”
“Sostrate,” I pulled my hand
from hers, “How can you help me?”
“Chloe, it is time that you
think with a clear head. Revenge has taken over your heart and your soul, taken
over so much of you that you cannot possibly win this battle. It takes more
than thinking with your brain. You must fight with love,” she pressed
her fist against her heart “not only hatred.”
“I don‟t understand,” I told
her.
“Wars are
not won because of hatred for the enemy; they are won because of love
for what is being defended.”
