A young girl in a white dress was sitting at a dressing table.
On this table, an assortment of makeups is laid out and lined up in a vanity case.
A woman all dressed in black stood directly behind the young girl.
This was moments before the girl’s fate.
The girls mother was called Alura.
Her mother placed a Moon Stone pendant around Melissa’s neck.
“I am giving you this Moon Stone pendant as it is your rightful birth rite. So don’t you ever dare lose this, Missy.”
“Yeth Mummy, me won’t lose it, me pwomise.”
“There’s a good little girl.”
The chain upon which the crystal ball like pendant hung was solid gold plated.
The girl looked up at her mother all exited.
“Mummy what is a Moon Stone?”
“Why my dear little girl, the Moon Stone is a most rare sacred stone.
It came from the moon a very long time ago.
It fell to Earth in a great meteor shower.
Only thirteen fragments of the great Moon Heart broke up.
These were scattered, and only five of the fragments of Moon Heart got found.
This is how Moon Magic was discovered.”
Missy’s eyes widened in bewilderment.
“Wow! What iseths Moon Magic Mummy?”
Alura gave Missy a simple smile.
“It is something you can not begin to understand as yet my dear little girl,
But in time you shall understand it.
Moon Magic my dear little girl is a lot older than Witch Craft.
Far much older.
Moon Magic had become part of the Ancient Ancestral Powers…”
“Ancestral Powers!” Remarked Missy in awe.
Alura smiled at her daughter.
“That in time you will come to understand my dear little girl.”
Alura paused as she turned Missy to face her.
“I shall teach you my child,
I shall teach everything you need to know,
However you must first prove your self to be worthy of being truly a good l girl,
Only then shall I begin to teach you,
That which only I know.
Today you can go outside and play,
But keep out of the gardens.”
“I shall Mummy, me pwomise.”
“Good girl.”
Alura let Missy go.
She dashed out of the bedroom and down the spiral staircase.
She rushed outside.
She kept away from the gardens as best as she could.
Alura however watched over Missy like a hawk, from her bedroom window.
She was unaware of the fact that she was even dead…
She was unaware that she was even in the Realm of the Dead.
She awoke in her own room, in her own bed.
But the house smelt of smoke and the entire bedroom was coated with ash.
The young girl could not quite take in what had just happened.
Just then her body began to shimmer with a yellow golden glow.
And then…
she was gone…
Missy was flung hard onto the stiff hardened mattress of the prison.
Like a bed of the prison.
Like a bedroom in which her mother had dragged her to and tossed he into it.
Alura stepped over Missy as she reached down to pick her up off the bed.
Turning Missy to face her, Alura grabbed hold of the chain around Missy’s neck where the Moon Stone hung.
“I shall take that. You are truly not deserving to have it.”
Alura tried to force the pendant off from around Missy’s neck.
Somehow, the entire pendant resisted with a mysterious counter force.
This enraged Alura.
“Why you truly wicked, wicked girl.
You shall not have the Moon Stone, you shall not have it.”
Alura began to summons up within her, all of her powers in her desperate attempt to force the Moon Stone from around Missy’s neck.
Again the pendant re-acted with another counter force.
The Moon Stone itself began to glow.
Then the glow became living flame which spread out from the pendant, suddenly engulfing Missy.
The mysterious flames spread out and engulfed Alura.
Suddenly the whole of Raven-Shade Hall burst into flames.
Somehow, there came a Banshee-like cry from the flaming inferno that was Raven-Shade Hall.
“Ahhhhhhhh… you wicked, wicked girl. Ahhhhhhhh…”
Missy’s Moon Stone pendant had begun to to burn with a Mysterious fire.
This spookily had spread from the pendant to Missy.
Then it spread from Missy to Alura Rave-Shade.
Then suddenly the whole of Raven-Shade Hall had burst into flames…
Meanwhile in Raven-Shade at Raven’s Park 1983.
James Mayflower had befriended a boy called Simon who had some friends in the out door swimming pool.
Simon by now had plans for James.
Simon had approached his friends in the swimming pool.
