Nasha's POV
"Your father is not to be discussed." my mom said standing ubruptly and exiting the room. Seriously? My eyes changed to and irritated yellow.
The lady in my head, who I now know as Omnia, brought up a picture in my mind. It was a map of the house that we were able to use due to one of my new powers. I could see my mom walking towards her room, stopping suddenly. She waved her hand and a door appeared on the wall. Omnia transported me to the room. We made it so no one could hear, see, smell, sense, touch, or taste us; we practically weren't there. I followed my mom down a passage to a room which I presume to be a dungeon. She went to a certain cell, unlocked it with her magic and entered before closing and locking it again. I let Omnia turn me into her spirit form momentarily so I could pass through the cell bars.
'Strange, you'd think it would be more difficult to get in these cells.' Omnia said in my head.
'There is probably no need. The people kept in here seem to be completely powerless.' I said, reaching out to feel the power of everyone else in the dungeon. There were only a few; all with dark souls angry about being drained of their power.
"Rex?" My mother called, bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Yes, my queen?" a oddly familiar voice answered, keeping his back turned away from us.
"Celeste's been asking about her dad. What do I tell her?" she asked, seemingly hopeless about the situation.
"Celeste?" he said in a whisper. "She's here?"
"Yeah." she sighed, looking at the ground.
"Can I see her?" he asked, his voice cracking.
"No! You've done enough to hurt her. Nothing else can happen to my daughter!" my mom all but screamed
"Our daughter." The man said turning around. I gasped when I saw his face. He looked so familiar, and he claims to be my father... But why is he in a prison cell?
"Fine, but that doesn't mean you get to go anywhere near her. She might get hurt." She stated coldly.
"What did I even do to no longer be allowed in my own offspring's life?" He asked with venom laced in his words.
"Nothing, now back to businesses. What should I tell Celeste?"
"Tell her I'm down here in this horrible place because I'm too dangerous to be around her, even though this cell was designed to block my power. If I'm all alone down here, why do you need to block my power? I can't hurt the people that aren't here." He said in an annoyed voice.
"It's just a precaution. Now seriously, I just told her never to talk about you, should I keep it like that? Yes I should." She said and started pacing and mumbling. Was my dad really that big of a deal?
We slowly started to come back, one sense at a time until I was completely tangible. My dad looked at me and smiled, tears coming to his eyes.
"Celeste? Is that you?" He asked, stepping forward slowly. My mom's attention snapped to me.
"Yes, but," I turned to my mom, "why is he a secret and how is he dangerous?" I asked, not sure if I could trust the man.
"How did you get down here?" my mom snapped, ignoring my question completely. I rolled my eyes.
"I followed you." I answered in a 'duh tone.
"Well you should mind your own business." she said ubruptly.
'You should mind your own business,' Omnia mocked in my head, 'It kind of is my business, he's our father.' she mumbled and helped me look into my moms head.
Here's what i got: my dad, Rex, is dangerous because he is a Mali, raised by the Acentetus people, both very strong beings. A Mali is the purest form of evil. they are complete menaces, taught to kill at hate everything around them. An Acentetus is the complete opposite. they are perfect people that only know good, and make everything around them so much happier. So when a evil soul is tamed by perfect ones, apparently that helps a whole lot, and basically makes the Mali have the purity of a human, until of course they leave the Acentetus people. Then they slowly revert to their true nature, demonic killing machines. Once they are accostomed to the pure ways, though, there are some things they will always keep with them. first of all, the need to comfort and strengthen their offspring. sencond, the ability to love. even though they naturally hate everything they set eyes on, there will always be one or two things that they have endless love for, usually their mates and children. My mom didn't want to risk anyone getting hurt because of his nature, so she erased all memories of him from when he was still allowed in my life.
Satisfied, Omnia and I looked into my father's mind. We were imediately clouded by thoughts of hatred and malice,suffacating out all reason, except for in one spot. There, in the smallest portion of his mind, my father was fighting with all his might to push out the negative thoughts and behavior. He was thinking of times when I was little and whenever a memory of me came up, the hatred would dim, and it looked like he could make it, but then the darkness would thicken again, trying to kill all the happiness left in his being.
I exited my father's brain, running to him and hugging him like my life depended on it.
"Dad," I said looking him in the eyes, "Come on. I need you to fight. For me, for mom, for you. You need to get rid of those thoughts. how much do you really want to do all those horrible things you were thinking of doing? You need to come back so I can have my daddy back. I need you." I begged, forcing down the walls my mom put up and letting all my happy memories with him seap into his mind, hoping it would help. I made my eyes change into the usual gold and green mixture he always loved.
He smiled and i could feel him becoming week from pushing away the evil, so i provided some of my strength and he pushed it to the back of his mind and locked it away the best he could.
My mom stared at him in wonder as she realised the evil was mostly gone, replaced with the good that she loved in him.
I helped my dad up and gave him more of my strength. He smiled and hugged me again.
"Sugar cube," he started, tears of happiness threatening to fall, "I thought I'd never see you again!"
"You know I wouldn't do that! I promised you I would always be your little sugar cube." I said with a baby voice at the end. He laughed and I turned to mom.
"Your turn." I smiled and let her and the real dad reunite. Omnia and I transported the three of us to our backyard, the plae we used to use as a family bonding centre. I got on my swing and started swinging as I watched my dad pick flowers and braid them into my mom's hair.
"So Celeste."
"Yeah mom?" I replied absentmindedly.
"Now that your fake parents are gone, we need to discuss some things. I don't think it's very apropriate for you to be living at the packhouse, and you can't really live here. I think you should find a family to take care of you." she said simply.
"Um, I'm eighteen. I'm a legal audult so I can probably just get an apartment and live there until this whole prophesy thing starts happening." I stated jumping off the swing and shifting into my phoenix form in a burst of flames. It felt so good to feel the wing through my feathers. I landed on my dads shoulder and stopped the fire from escaping my body.
"I know, but I would feel so much better if you just had a family to protect and care for you. You can only visit us in your sleep, so I really want someone to watch over you when you're awake."
"I can take care of myself you know." I said giving her a pointed look.
"I know but would you just do it for me?" she asked and I thought it over in my head. I guess it wouldn't hurt.
"Fine." I said. I really diddn't care that much about who I lived with and where as long as I got to sleep at night and could visit my friends and Rio.
"Perfect! You should go back now. It's about 7:30 and you need to go family shopping!" my mom exclaimed and dragged me off to the spot I woke up at.
Before I got there I teleported back to my dad who was asleep on the grass and woke him up.
"Bye," I said hugging him tightly, "See you tomorrow night." I gave him a kiss on the cheek and trasnsported back to my waking spot. I waved goodbye to my mom and and blinked my eyes to find myself back in bed.
I noticed Rio sleeping on the chair where I left him and Caesar asleep at the foot of my bed. I flashed them to their own beds and clapped my lights on.
'What should we wear today?' I asked Omnia in my head.
'I think you should just grab something quick. I want to get this over with ASAP.'
'what's the rush?'
'there is no rush, I just don't think what we wear is that important.' she said iratably and before I knew what was happening she had made a t-shirt and jeans appear on my body along with denim patterned eyes and transported me to Garrett's office.
He wasn't there.
I sighed and transported him (man, today i'm transporting alot!) in his chair with new clothes on, just in case.
"Uh, you needed something?" he asked sarcastically, setting down his spoon in his bowl of oatmeal. I guess he was eating breakfast.
"My mom want's me to go family shopping today." I said and relayed our conversation in his mind. He nodded and opened a drawer of his desk.
"Your mother said you would need a family before, so I found one that I think you would like. They have twins your age, Alexsis and Anthony, a 3 year old named Kalai, and triplets on the way." He said and gave me a smile before handing me a paper with their address and phone number.

Okay, so I just realised I didn't really explain how Omnia and Nasha went from that annoying lady giving me a headache to helping each other do everything, so I'm just going to write a little thing. None of this chapter is edited.

(When she passed out to go home after the first time she met her mom)
'So, you are the one who's been taking all my power.' the annoying voice in my heaad said suddenly.
'Um, I guess so?' I said, but it was more of a question.
'Well then, if I'll be living in your head for the rest of my days, I should introduce myself. I'm Omnia. I already know all about you but you should know that I am do giving you headaches. I know that was bugging you when I moved around up here so I'll just stop you from feeling it. Also, If you let me help you use your new powers, which are really mine, then it will be so much easier. Got it?'
'Sure.' I said, 'but what do you mean by living in my head?'
'It's exactly how it sounds.' she said in an irritated voice. I guess Omnia isn't the most patient spirit there is.
'I'm going to ignore that coment,' she said refering to the patient thing, 'and I just need to know if we have a deal. You let my get out and shift when I need to and I'll give you my awesome power. Good? Good. Now let's get back to the place you call earth.' she ended the conversation and I woke up yada yada yada. The End.

I'm a bit irritated right now, not at anything in particular but at the whole world. I'm going to bed, now.
