"I did not know it was there, I have only ever been in this part of the cavern. " Xiangin goes over to the entrance to see what is inside. There is treasures and more bones. The back wall of the chamber is the same crystal that the coffin was made of. Encased in the Crystal is several ancient sirens. These sirens had not only the silvery sheen to their skin but they had wings. These must be the true form of the fallen ones. The men were mesmerized by them unable to even move. Xiangin shakes Dude but he can't take his eyes from the sleeping siren. Xiangin begins to cry out of fear that she has brought them to their death so she could be free.
Morrigan hears her cries and opens a portal to the cavern. Aisling, Remi, Moll and Maureen step through the portal with Morrigan. Walking over to Xiangin Morrigan places her hand on her shoulder.
"Child it is ok we are here. We will send the men back to the house and take care of them. " Uktena is not effected by the sirens so he helps the men back through the portal. Once they are all back at the house the women begin to send the fallen ones back to the father.
Aisling places coral, aquamarine, opal and emeralds in a circle with a large clear crystal in the center. Lighting a candle between each stone she calls for the sirens spirits to enter the large crystal. After the four ladies begin to call for the sirens the ancient ones awaken. Their anger permeates the cavern nearly suffocating the four women. Aisling calls upon all four elements to force the fallen ones to obey. The siren on the right begins to disintegrate as her spirit leaves her body. She goes without a fight. It's as if she is ready to return to the Father willingly. The other two begins to bombard the women with psychic attacks trying to get them to turn on each other. The four of them hold onto each other calling out to one another the reasons they are family. The room becomes hot and the air is dry as if a fire has sucked out all of the oxygen. They sink to their knees holding onto each other's hands. Aisling cries out to the Father to send them strength and to protect their unborn children. They hear a voice calling then there is silence . There standing in front of the siren's is a boy child. He takes their hands. Looking deep into their eyes they see the pain and horror their existence has caused. He begins to tell them.
"The father exiled you because you craved the attention of men. Luring them away for your own desires. He sent you into the seas so that you could not have them . So in your anger you sents thousands to their deaths with your song. " touching the sirens face he tells her.
"My daughters you have done well. They are where they can do no harm. Remi this boy is to be your child, when he is born he will be a healer and wise child . He will be like his sister able to call on all of the elements at will. Teach them well. Moll your child will be a great earth element able to heal the earth from any blight. Teach them well for they will work beside you to defeat the fallen ones and to bring them back to their rightful places. " as the golden light shines through the cavern all of the lost souls are sent to the afterlife for their judgement and rewards. The four ladies stand and a portal is opened. Walking through it they are back in their rental house. In the center of the living room lay the treasure from the cavern. With a note
"Use this to help those in need and to raise the children well. M" looking at Dude and Xiangin telling them to take it to raise a family. That way her brother can retire from the military to stay home with his wife.
"Dude you realize that since your gift has been awakened you cannot return to the military. It would be an unfair advantage to use it in anyway not knowing how to properly use it. You need to come home and train with the others to learn to control it. Our gift is linked not just to our faith and blood line but also by our emotions. If you get angry you could blow up something not meant to be blown up. If that happens the Father will punish you. So you and Xiangin need to come home with us. We can send the gold coins to auction and you can live off of the money . You can help out marshal and the others with the various family business's that way your mind won't be idle. Xiangin will need you close at all times to help her until she learns control as well . So what do you want to do? Do you want to use this money to come home and learn about your gifts, or do you want Morrigan to ask the Father to bind them so that it is like before?" Aisling gives her brother time to think about what to do. He goes outside and looks up at the sky. Dude never really talked to the Father other than to say grace so he is not sure what to ask.
"Heavenly Father , thank you for sparing Xiangin and allowing me to have her be by my side. I really don't know what to do, I have never been like Aisling where I always knew the right thing to do. I was never good at making the right decisions. I do want to try though. I want to be able to protect Xiangin and be a help to the others. I want you to look upon me with pride and not frustration at how many mistakes I make. I will be honest that having a gift is scary to me . I will always wonder if I am using it right and for the right reasons. Uncle John always says that if I ask you for a sign you will give me one. So Father send me a sign for what is the best move for me to make . That way I will know it is right." Sighing Dude sits outside thinking about what to do. Crystal comes out and sits next to him.
"Hey imp , why are you up?" Dude asks looking at her.
"I couldn't sleep, I kept feeling your anxiety. Why are you worried about if you will do what is right? Moll says that if it is for the good of many and you are not doing something for the praise or glory. Then it's the right thing to do. She says that we are to do good deeds just because it's the right thing to do. For no other reason. As long as the reason you do something is for the good of many then the Father will bless you. If you do something for selfish reasons then the Father will punish you. The jealousy and selfishness of the fallen ones is why they were banished . Not all of them did something truly evil , some just were cast out because they defied the Fathers will for their own gain. Not all the fallen ones are evil they just have not asked the father for forgiveness and asked to be returned. As long as when you make a mistake you ask for forgiveness and try to make it right. Like when you tried to steal Aisling's money. She forgave you and made your punishment lite. It's the same with the father. " standing up and giving Dude a hug Crystal tells him.
"Don't worry we all have faith in you." Kissing his cheek she goes back inside. Xiangin walks over and sits with Dude.
"That is one grown up little girl. She is right you know, my mother and sisters most likely never realized they were doing wrong. It was what they were taught. Where as you and my adoptive parents showed me kindness and love. I knew what they did was wrong. I gladly accept the Father's conditions if it means I can be with the one I love." Xiangin lays her head on his shoulder her heart racing with excitement at being close to the one she loves.
