When we get  to my house we're so tired of the day at the beach we go to bed. I sleep with Raven wrapped in my arms, curled up like a child. That night I dreamed about the 13th century. Raven's mother appeared standing next to the glowing blue and purple tree. She turns around a looks at me, she looks sad.

 

  " What's wrong?" I ask her

 

  " JJ, our world is in danger once again..." She whispers with tears sliding down her face

 

  " What happened?!"

 

  She looks back up at me, " A witch. She's sent her coven and allies after us."

 

  " A witch?" I question. I'm just now finding out witches exist too?

 

  " Yes... Her name is Brytneeh the Daeth Coven Leader." She tells me

 

  Britney? " I'll tell Raven. We can return immediately." I assure her

 

  She nods and hugs me. " Thank you for being there for Raven."

 

  I wake up the next morning with Raven in my arms still. I move slowly away from him and get dressed. I had to tell him we needed to go back. He did want to go back still, right?

 

  " We have to go back today." Raven says, sitting up in bed

 

  I turn and look at him. " She came to your dreams too?" I ask and he nods.

~~~

  We get up and pack some bags. My grandparents would understand where we were. They weren't home and neither of them had cell phones and I debated about leaving a note. What could I say in a note? Hey we're going to the 13th century? It didn't matter, they knew all about it and would immediately clue in when we didn't return tonight. Raven and I toss our bags in the back seat of the truck and get into the front. It was going to be a long drive to get to Niagara Falls. I glances over at Raven and he was smiling. I knew he liked it better there, he never truly fit in here. Neither of us did.

  We were out of Kingston and officially on our own. No other cars or civilization were in sight for miles. We drove for hours and soon it was dark out. I could see Raven was nodding off. I reach over and put my hand on his thigh and smile.

  " Get some rest Rave." I tell him, " It's okay."

  Raven smiles and leans his head against the window, closing his eyes. Before long he is asleep. The thought of being back in the 13th century was exciting. I couldn't wait to get to the Falls. Another hour or so and we drive into the city. Raven's eyes open and he looks around. 

  " We're here Raven." I tell him as I turn the car off

  We get out and grab our bags and walk along the trail until we are until the Niagara Falls. The golden scripture is still there and I place my hand on the inscription. The rocks shake and open into a door way. Just like the first time, Raven's mother stands there to greet us. How she knew when we'd be here, I don't know.

  " Raven, JJ." She hugs both of us, " It is so good to see you both again." She looks at us and smiles

  Leading us in, the rocks close again. The kingdom never ceased to amaze me. I hold Raven's hand and he squeezes it, smiling at me. His mother leads us inside and everyone is all lined up, bowing as we pass them. She take sus down a hallway and into a dressing room.

   " We must get you out of those 'modern' cloths and into something more, our style." She says smiling
