- ‘ Seriously?, ‘ What was that for!, Lisa asked looking angry, ‘ But Liam held her.
- ‘ Hi,’ Kingston,’ Kingston emerged from the bush , dressed in Liam’s clothing. ‘ Bet you didn’t recognize me,’ ‘ Did you notice my fur?’
- Probably I’d kick your balls for scaring the living day light out of us?’
- ‘Ahhhhh,’. ‘ He said.’ I’m sorry, giving them a puppy look.
- ‘ It’s okay bro, ‘ But you’re not allowed to come to the human realm in your wolf form,’ Lisa said,’ looking around.’
- ‘ Lisa ‘, ‘ You look excited.’ ‘ Is it because of the super moon or the festival?’
- ‘ The rise of the super moon,’ He continued,’ ‘ You know when it happens,some true powers comes out as Vampires and werewolves,’ ‘And finally if you two and your daughter have truly become normal beings and as agreed by the council,’ ‘ If none of your powers manifest…’
- ‘ We’ll be free to live our lives normally Lisa said.’
- ‘we’ve waited a long long time for this day Kingston,’ Liam continued. ‘ Aren’t you happy for us?’
- ‘ Honestly’, ‘ No’. ‘ I want your powers to return,’ ‘We miss having you as our leaders.’

- Her soul already left her body, the midwife announced,’ Looking at the small amount of vernix caseosa on the slightly purple, bluiesh tint on the skin of the baby.’
- ‘ Lisa took the baby from Liam,’ Eyes closed and hands placed on little Athena with the hope of healing her.’
- ‘ The midwife said.’Nothing can be done ,’ ‘ luna’ , ‘ She’s lacking the “milk” spot that babies have on their lips, ‘ Her lips are parted , ‘ And the tongue is protruding and her eyelids are thin and delicate.’ ‘ The midwife shaked her head,’ ‘ All my life of being a midwife I have never encountered such,’ ‘ Sorry to say this,’ she looks less developed.’
- ‘ Leave…’ ‘All of you, leave. ‘ Liam , our daughter, we can’t let her die.
- Liam and Lisa placed their hands on Athena’s heart, ‘ Lisa’s eyes changed to yellow while Liam’s changed to red,’.
- Her heart Is beating, Lisa said as little Athena came back to life.

- ‘ We’re humans Kingston, And we’re fine with it, as long as we have our daughter with us , ‘ We’ll do everything within our powers to protect them from the evil ones.’
- She’s part of the prophecy and you can’t avert the prophecy?’
- Kingston, she’s a human, Lisa said. We left the supernatural realm, so she can live a normal life.’
