Chapter 48 - Tenninax 48

My name is Tenninax but most people call me Ax. I am 22 years old. This will be a story of my life from this day forward.

Jounal entry number 1:

This story started 28 years ago in Pawā Nation, when My birth mother saved our country. She was a Pusher. Someone who can make others do her will. She taught me with Great power comes greater responsibility. I have the same power she has.

I call her my birth mother because she used her egg with my father Roberts sperm to have me. I have two fathers. The other one is Adam and her brother.

I have an older sister who name is Telinanna aka Anna. She is an amplifier like my father Adam. She can make my power even greater. Though I really do not need it now, I am already more powerful then my birth mother. She is four years older then I am.

I have two cousin/half siblings. Twins Cindy who is an Oracle with more powers then we can know, she is living across the ocean in Brytana. And Henry our King now. They are 6 years older then I am but we are close.

My best friend and long life shadow is a girl by the name of Jillian. She is two years younger then me. Her father was captain of the kings guards.

She trained with her father for years and now is working in Grey Castle as a guard for the women's dungeon.

I just got promoted to Commander over the prison and will be leaving home soon to start my new job. This is the prison King Maximum and my birthmother started way back then. But I am getting a head of my self.

Lillian, our Oracle/Queen and the wife of Henry told me that I needed to keep a record of my life starting today. That is why I am writing this all down.

King Maximum called me into his study yesterday and asked me to take the job as Commander as his last act as King. The man that was Commander the last 28 years is retiring and with my powers I was the next best choice.

I was board and feelinh a lityle lonely so I agreed to take the job. I will set out today with the supplies for the prison.

Lillian also told me that the strings of fate will intangel me with my true love and a new family will be formed. I just needed to have patience. My sister found her true love when she was 8 and she is happily married now with a kid and another on the way.

I do wish for that kind of happiness. I must go now for the time to travel has come.

I close my leather bond book and pack it into my bag.

"Ready son?" Robert asked.

"Yes Dad. You will come to visit?" I ask.

"Yes, but your father and I will finally take some time for ourselves. We will be staying in our cottage in the woods. Your father needs more room for all his babies." He laughed.

"He has like fifty now." I laugh.

"If that. All your items have been loaded in one of the supply wagons. Your father has your horse saddled and waiting."

We walk down the path from our home to the wagons waiting.

"You keep cool. With the weather turning hot it is easy to sick. Also write often." My father Adam hugs me. "I can't believe my baby is leaving home."

"Dad, please... people are watching." I say.

"Dear let the boy go. Now it's time for you and me." Robert gives him a kiss.

"I know but I will miss him." Adam gives me one last hug and I mount my horse.

"Ready to leave sir?" One of the men ask.

I nod my head yes and the wagons start rolling.

We will arrive at Grey Castle tonight so the journey is slow with the supply wagons.

I could ride ahead and be there in a few hours but I really want to take my time.

Around noon we stop to give the horses pulling a break and to eat a meal.

My father Robert packed me chicken, potatoes, carrots, and bread. I love my fathers food.

As I sit looking out over the fields I spot a young girl of about 9 or 10 just sitting there.

She is dirty with torn cloths. Long black unkempt hair. I look at my plate of food and sigh. I walk over to her.

"Would you like to eat?"

She shook her head yes. I sat next to her and hand her my food. She starts eating very fast.

"Slow down. There is no need to rush. What is your name?"

'Daisy'

I do not hear her voice but hear the answer in my head.

"Daisy you are a pretty as the flower. How old are you?"

'12' She eats slower as we talk.

"Why are you all by your self?"

She then looked panicked and looked around. She shoved the plate back at me and laid down in the grass.

'Thank you now go away please or my brother will be mad.'

I stand and look around as I walk back. Her brother? Then I spot the little thief. He was stealing supplies out of the wagon.

'Freeze don't move' I push. The boy stops and does not move.

'Tell me your name!'

"I am Lae."

'How old?'

"19"

'Why are you stealing from the kings supply caravan?'

"My sister and I are hungry."

'Unfreeze'

The boy then moves and looks at me.

"You are a pusher like the Queen." He says.

I get a good look at the boy. He is a small feminine man with long black hair. Dark brown eyes. He was unkempt just like his sister. And his cloths were just a raggedy and to big for him.

I kept filling a tingle as if he was trying to use a power on me but it was not working.

Something about this boy pulled at my heart.

"Well you are a thief and this wagon is on it's way to Grey Castle so I might was well take you there and lock you up."

I see the panic in his eyes. I smile.

"I am sorry, but please my little sister needs me."

I feel the tingle again. He wants me to look somewhere else so he can run. I smile.

"How about this. You come work for me. You and your sister. I'll pay your sister twenty jewels a week plus meals to keep my quarters clean. I'll pay you also twenty jewels a week plus meals to help me out in the office."

"Really, a real job with pay?" He asked.

"But no more stealing. And no more trying to distract me. Go out there and get your sister out of the grass and bring her back here to me."
