Shadow's home on Earth.

A lonely house stood un the middle of a field hidden by the dense forest and protected by many invisible charms from many dimensions, making the house practically invincible. Round the back of the house, sat a block of stables housing a small pegasus herd that Shadow had bred herself.

Shadow appeared at the tall iron gate into her house, which was surrounded by a high wall. Muttering several words in many languages though her projected thoughs, the gates opened and she led Violet and Phoenix through before closing them with yet more words. Shadow turned to her two friends. Welcome to my home. She signed to them.

"Nice." Violet mumbled, twisting her neck.

Shadow signed her thanks and led them up the path to the house itself. She projected her thoughts again to speak, allowed her mind to be scanned before her eyes and then the door opened.
Not even Kar or Voldemort can get in here. Shadow signed to the others after closing the door.

"What about Henry?" She asked, thinking about what would happen. "Wheres Shaeman?" She asked in a whisper.

Phoenix appeared and looked around "I Love it" she said.

It will only accept my mind pattern even if they do break the codes. I gave Shaeman a mind key, but he's still in another dimension. Shadow signed rapidly to Violet. She lead the pair up the stairs and pointed to two doors there, which lead into two spacious rooms for them to stay in.

Violet nodded, feeling depressed. She walked in one of the rooms, sitting on the floor. She went to grab her necklace. only to remember that Henry still had it. She sighed, looking at the bruises on her arms.

Phoenix hugged Shadow "Thank you my friend" she said.

Shadow gave Phoenix a thumbs up, smiling before wandering downstairs to prepare something to eat.

Violet stood up, looking around the room. "I wonder if she has a towel I can use to get a bath." She mumbled, walking down stairs.

Phoenix went to her room and dropped her back, she held her stomach as she looked around the room.

Shadow saw Violet and walked over to her, her head on one side questionningly.

"Do you have a towel and a bathroom?" She asked, looking at her bloody dress. "White clothes and red blood dont mix. I'm sure Nixy has something I can wear." She mumbled.

Sadow put a hand on her friend's shoulder and guided her back up the stairs, along the corridor to the bathroom. She pointed to a closet where the towels were before walking to her room, taking some white, hooded robes from her closet and putting them in the bathroom for VIolet.

Violet looked in the mirror, to see her shoulder lenght black hair had dirt and blood in it. She touched her head, feeling scars from where her head had been busted. She pulled her shirt off, looking at the bruises under her clothes. Sighing, she walked to the tub, turning on the shower and making sure the water was scolding hot. She stepped in, ignoring the pain running threw her back.

Shadow sensed Violet's pain and knocked on the door, worried.

Violet stuck her head off of the shower, blood dripping on the floor. "Hello?" She called out, stepping out and grabbing the towel. She walked to the door and opened it slightly. "Yeah?" She asked Shadow.

Phoenix sat on her bed and cryed, she need to speak to Shadow and Violet after.

Shadow noticed the bruises and cuts. She sighed silently, feeling her friend's pain in her mind. She drew back her cloak, taking a vial of potion from the small collection hanging on her belt, handing it to Violet. It was an extra strong healing potion she had made in an attempt to return her speech. She put her head on one side and smiled at her friend before closing the door and going to see Phoenix. She knocked on the door and waited for an answer.

Phoenix heard the knock, she wiped her tears for her eyes, "Come in" she said.

Shadow opened the door and saw Phoenix. Closing the door, she walked over, sitting down and putting an arm around her friend's shoulders, ansking her wordlessly what was wrong.

Violet looked at the vail, setting down on the sink before getting back in the shower. She winced, has the water hit a cut on her head.

Phoenix told Shadow everything "I'm scared" she admitted "Henry probably will find me, i don't know who the father"

Shadow stood up and walked to the door, gesturing for Phoenix to follow her. She walked along the corridor and opened a door that led to a room in darkness, but when your eyes adjusted, you could see two five year old girls lying asleep in twin beds.
I know what you're going through. Shadow signed to Phoenix.

Violet turned the water off, stepping out of the tub and cleaning it back up. She cleaned the blood from the floor up. She walked to the sink, grabbing the vail and tipping her head back to swallow it. She cringed at the taste but grabbed a robe and walked out, looking for Nixy's room.

Phoenix looked at Shadow "Shad, i had no idea" she said and went to hug "We can help each other" she told her.

"Nixy?" Violet asked out, seeing her. "Do you have some shorts and shirt I can wear?" She asked.

Shadow smiled, hugging her friend back.
I fear for them, because my father doesn't know. He will try to kill them. Shadow said quietly though thoughts.

Phoenix nodded to Violet and pointed to the closet. "I'll help you" she told her "i don't think the father is henry"

"I do." Violet said, biting her lip. "We havent seen Draco in a month already." She mumbled.

And I'll help you get through it too. Shadow promised her friend through sign language.
I'll go and make some dinner, any requests? She asked her friends, broadcasting her thoughts.

"I-I'm not hungry." Violet said, biting her lip.

Phoenix looked at Violet and got up "Well where could he be?" she asked.

"On a mission....most likely." Violet sighed, grabbing an old shirt and a piar of gray shorts. She walked into the closet, putting them on and walked back out.

Phoenix bit her lip "Will he be alright?" she asked.

Shadow nodded and thought about her friend's problems. She sighed, going to her room to meditate on it. She lit the candles in a circle and hovered there, a few feet off the ground and her legs crossed in a lotus position, her lips moving in soundless words. Archangel and Onyx wandered in and sat opposite their mother, also meditating.

"Maybe I dont know." Violet said, laying down. "Nixy, what the hell did I get us in?" She asked, looking up at her.

Onyx wandered out of the meditation and looked up at Phoenix and Violet. Her eyes widened and she boed deeply.

Phoenix stood up and whispered "He better be alright" she looked at Violet "Its not your fault Riddy" Phoenix looked at the child and smiled.

Violet started crying. "Yes it is." She said, looking at the little girl.

Phoenix looked at her "No it isn't" she told her.

Onyx looked a bit confused, but she smiled back.

Violet sat up, looking out the window. "I...told Bellatrix to do that...I thought that she would say no and then me and you wouldnt have to be chosen. What happen is, if I find someone I think is perfect for death eaters, they marry them. They wanted to give you to Crabbe and I said no, Draco. Well they said no, Draco got me! I didnt want to be his wife so I said no. They told me to name someone from the top of my head and I said Shadow.....well father said no and said Arua, and I said no cause I didnt want nothing to happen her and Bella said what about Phoenix and I said yeah, thinking it was still for Draco and it was Henry." Violet said, crying again.

"Shadow?" Onyx asked questioningly, putting her nose into places it didn't belong. She knew it wasn't a good habit, but she could never resist.

Phoenix looked at Violet then hugging her she told her "Riddy, its okay"

"No its not. I'm the reason your in hell." She said, hugging her back.

Phoenix let go of her friend "Vi, tis alright" she told her "Anyway i need names"

Violet nodded, wiping her eyes. "Sethrin?" She suggested

Phoenix raised an eyebrow at her "Sethrin?" she asked "I was think either Darla Alice or if a boy i don't know"

Onyx just watched the pair for a while before wandering off. A few minutes after, Shadow walked out of the room and signed to her friends.
Have you seen Onyx?!
