Story: Nova

"Nova what the fuck did you do?" Zaros asks when he spots us.

" What do you mean?" I ask innocently. "Cain has been flipping out for a hour, the room is completely destroyed" Theron opens the door and a chair comes flying out of the room.

"Okay at least he is getting it out of his system right?

" I look at Rinus. Rinus looked a bit pale I didn't know someone with pale skin could look paler than they already were.

"So back to my question, what did you do?

" Zaros presses. "Go on a walk and not tell anyone and then see Malachi" I say the last part like Busta rhymes.

"You did wha.." Zaros starts but the door is ripped off the handles exposing a very irate Cain.

"YOU! YOU! AND YOU! INISDE NOW!!" he bellows.

When he says the last you he clenches his fist as he stares at me.

Once we are inside the room we look for a place to sit in the chaos Cain created.

Cain storms to stand in front of us seething.

"Hi baby" I give a small wave. "HI BABY?

! THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY TO ME?!! HI FUCKING BABY?

!!" he snaps. "No you are right, I also have to say I love you with all my heart" I add.

"FOR FUCKS SAKE NOVA , WHY ARE YOU SO DISOBEDIENT?

!" he asks. I had a lot of snarky comebacks but instead because I am above pettiness I say "Technically I wasn't disobedient.

I used my Me time to make sure my children are protected" I smile to myself.

"DO YOU FUCKING THINK THAT THIS IS FUNNY?

!" he yells. "I take the safety of my children very seriously" I state.

"NOVA." he pinches the bridge of his nose.

Cain than turns to Rinus "YOU SPEAK!". "Hey I wasn't finished" I tell him.

"NOVA, SO HELP ME IF YOU UTTER ANOTHER WORD.

.." he threatens. "Nova of you utter another word" I mimic him under my breathe.

Guess this is what I get for basically saving the world.

Cain bends down so we are at the same eye level, his eyes were still black.

"NOT ANOTHER WORD" he says so quietly it gives me goosebumps.

I stare out the window as Rinus and Cain start fighting not physically but verbally.

When Cain gets to Tariq, he tells Cain everything except that for the most part he had his arms around me.

Cain flips out again and starts yelling at Rinus for indulging me and his desire to learn about his darkness.

"Baby?" I finally had enough of the yelling.

"What?!" he asks. Oh good he was talking to me normally.

I lift my shirt and flash him, Cain blinks a few times as he stares at me.

"That isn't going to work Nova" he finally says.

"Really? Because your eyes are back to their normal color" I smile.

"Put your shirt down" he growls. "Nope I need you calm for what I am going to say next" I reply.

"You think you showing me that will keep me calm? " he shakes his head in disbelief.

"I don't know but I decided the more anger I feel from you, I will remove a piece of clothing until I am naked".

"Rinus and Tariq are in here!" he growls louder.

"What's your point? They have both seen me naked" I reply.

"Excuse me?" Cain snaps. "Look stay calm and I will keep my clothes on then your happy and I can leave to see my babies" I tell him.

Cain stares at the ceiling for a long time like he is looking for help from above.

"Fine what do you want to tell me" he reluctantly asks.

"Malachi is here and...". "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY?

!" he snarls. Tariq left the part out that we brought him here.

"You brought him here?!" Cain yanks me up and pulls my shirt down.

"He is harmless really" I try to defend him.

"Malachi" I whisper. "You called" he appears in the room.

Cain puts his body in front of mine and lets out a very loud growl.

A few seconds later Malachi is swarmed and I have guards surrounding Cain and I.

"What a wonderful welcome party" Malachi says sarcastically.

"Don't hurt him, he just wants to make amends!

!" I yell. I couldn't see shit with all these tall men in my way.

"Nova do not fear if it is my time then it is my time" he reassures me.

"You will not fight?" Rinus asks. "No descendant I will not" he replies.

"It was a pleasure descendant of Nora"Malachi says in my head.

Nooo this can't be happening it was going to ruin everything and may trigger Rinus if the one person who understands his darkness dies.

I start panicking. As my mind races, I feel a strange tinglingly feeling pass through my body.

I the suddenly staring at everything from in the air and Malachi was surrounded by a warm purple blue glow next to me.

My arm extended and my hand out, and the same glow around my hand.

"Nova?" Cain whispers. "Tell your men to stand down" my voice commands.

"Malachi will make amends and then is free to leave.

Any attempt on his life will be immediate execution.

Malachi is not our enemy" I tell the room.

"Speak" I turn to look at Malachi. As he starts his amends I have a feeling of relief and happiness wash through me, as I look at Cain I knew he did too.

Once the amends are made Malachi turns and smiles at me then turns to dust and is swept away by a light breeze perhaps to be with Nora.

I begin plummeting to the floor but not before Cain catches me.

"Hi" I smile, "Um hi" he stares at me for a long time.

"What the fuck was that!" Vato exclaims. "Nova!

!!" Alara burst into the room but then stops before she reaches Cain.

"Nova...your eyes..." she mumbles. Reaching into her dress she pulls out a small mirror and hands it to me.

My eyes were no longer brown. Crap I looked exactly like Nora now.
