I was lead into a fine hotel with only the most lush guests and the richest of foods. I saw my bags be swept off to what I only expect is my penthouse while a kind face in a suit guided me to a table my brother sat waiting, but oddly enough my siblings had not been called in. It was only Avery and I, perhaps I should be concerned. But being me I have nothing to fear but my own decisions.
“Ahh, my baby sister I bet you wonder why I sit before you today.” Avery calmly proclaimed.
“Well of course with our blood I am always but curious my brother, why are we not graced with the faces of our blood? Are they far too busy to visit us? I do ever so miss them.” I said as the words gracefully fell from my mouth.
“Ahaha, always a charmer Everlyn - with such love for our blood. I see so much of Mother in you. But you must not let her get the best of you, You know she had a way of trouble my sister.” He raised his cup in respect to our Mother.
“Well my brother, why don’t we jump to it then? Why have you taken time out of your day to call me and only I in? Have I done something wrong?” I asked as my tongue craved to ask more.
“Bless you my sister, it is not what you have done it is what you have not done. You see the Watchers and Angels have said that you barely use your skills publicly, we fear your strengths may grow weak, and well... your blood can never be weak my sister. YOU know our blood desires to be you. We hope you will one day bear the children that grow to be the Desired. Though our blood holds some of the strongest traits, none but you have been blessed with such strengths.” A sense of remorse came over Avery, knowing I could be dead if I weren’t to access my strengths as they please.
“My brother, have you not realised I have rarely left the commune to yet enter public? How must I use my strengths if the camp makes them out to be such a bore? Can’t you see I want to experience more?” I plead.
“Well my sister if you desire such as leaving the safety of your camp and those of your commune to stay amongst the Watchers or the Government here in the capitol why didn’t you say so?” Avery snickered as though he knew all my desires.
“No my brother, those are but words you’ve tied to my tongue. I do not desire to be worshipped like yourself in one of the capitols. I want to spend time amongst the Harvest. You see I have this recurring dream...” I said with a lighter mind,
“A dream has told you to risk your well being to live around the Harvest? My sister you are more like mother than I had imagined. Why would you risk such for a dream?” Avery seemed astounded.
“Well my brother, is it not our blood’s dreams that have lead us to great success? Has our blood not gone great distances by embodying our subconscious plans? My brother, my heart tells me you will do the right thing. Send me to an isolated town filled with the harvest. I will only be their briefly. I know exactly what I need to do. Just have me blend in safely with them for a mere few hours of a day and I will unleash a dream that will make our blood strong.” I ensured Avery.
“Oh my, oh my sister. I guess I have no other choice then to allow you such. Though you must dress as the Harvest, act as the Harvest and to live amongst them for even a mere few hours you must undergo numerous vaccinations so that their toxins don’t seep into our blood. I guess I wish you all the luck I have my sister. Please be well. I shall have you back in the capitol once your daydreaming has completed. Bring to me any proof to the success of this I beg you. You are loved.” Avery said as he rose from the table.
