  The final arrangements are being made by Lady Governesses to obtain supreme power over both worlds. “Here lies the dawn of a new day!”  She wailed before her followers in a wooded location, far from the center of attention.  “Tonight, we get one more shot, at reconnecting with The Old Kingdom! “My dear sweet Deities, my friends, we need this moment like a child needs its mother's love. As you all know, once we proceed with the séance, there is absolutely no turning back.” Taking a look around at each person individually, Lady Governess proceeded with the rules and regulations of the night’s proceedings.  “There is no point in backing out now because whoever does will meet a grim death just beyond the firelight of this circle. My guards readily await anyone bold enough to impede our act.” In the shrubs, Nyah and her followers hid, waiting. “So, that’s your mother, huh? She’s very pretty but quite cruel.” Nyah’s closest friend answered. “Yeah, I know, and I’d hate t...

  Several days have gone by. Nyah and her devout followers prepare for the day when both formal engagements commence on the same night: in the land of Akasha, the Annual Gala, celebrating the birth of their nation and on Earth, where the Annual Seniors Choice Ball will commence. * It’s the night before the parties. The moment of pure peace, pure bliss, and equality. As the sun sets, the plots thicken. For the battle of the throne, the fight between right and wrong goes down tonight. * Nyah and her followers are at the Tarsus High Seniors’ Choice Ball, preparing for battle. “Okay, here’s the plan,” Nyah said, getting Erica’s attention before she headed on stage with the rest of Nyah’s friends, the ones that Octavious had described to her the day before. “Before the lights go out, I need you to be on that stage and ready to take the lead.  Now, do you remember the words?” she asked seriously. “Uh, yes, I do.” “Good, because they have to be sung verbatim.  No screw-ups or it...

    “You said your sister, Nyah, is here, on Earth, have you ever looked for her?” “Every time I'm here.” He opened a door. “This used to be her bedroom. Everything’s the color blue. “It’s her favorite color.” He said pointing to a wall with a large oil painting of his sister. “Yes, the room is large, but how could I have missed such a large thing like that, yesterday when I was in here?”   Erica wondered to herself.  Ignoring the question, she focused back on being with Octavious. “Octavious, she's beautiful !” But why did she look so familiar to her...?” She loudly thought. -And then, it hit her! She's the lady she saw in the mirror! “Oh -sweet- Deity!” Octavious voice stagger. Pushing Erica out of the way before the picture of Nyah crashed on her head. “Thanks.” She said, standing to her feet. “Woah...” They voiced in unison.  “Look at that! Its, a stairwell...” “Wonder where it leads to?” “I don't know. But if we're gonna go, we better take this.” Octavious ...

  It was now the morning after, and all was well between Octavious and Erica as they held each other closely, enjoying the breeze as it blew the drapes gently above their heads. “I’m glad you said yes,” the soothing voice of Octavious said as he stroked her face, pulling her hair from around her eyes. “I wouldn’t have settled for anything less…” Amazed at how gentle he was with her last night brought her to tears as she thought about the moment again, wishing she could relive it. “See, there you go,” he cooed.  “That’s what I like to see from you—that smile, the look of satisfaction.”  Poking around at her face and then rubbing his nose on hers, he reached behind her pillow and pulled out a remote control. “Watch this!  I got the whole play-by-play of what we did last night recorded on TV!  Wonder how much money I’d make off this tape if I sold it…?  Betcha didn’t know I had a camera in here did you ?!”  He teasingly waved the remote in her face as a l...
