Laputa -

It stormed all night, but mommy held me close to her, keeping me warm. She got me to stop crying, and I soon fell asleep to exhaustion.

Mom -

Me and Daisy, the human, waited for Laputa to get up, when she did, she was carrying the dark stone. She smiled a little.

Laputa -

"I know what to do!" I giggled. Slowly I climbed up onto the chair, and sat next to mommy. Her arms encircled around me quicker than I could teleport myself.

Mom -

I feel over protective.

Laputa -

Slowly I put the dark stone in the middle of the table. We all stared at it. cautiously I took the other stones I received from the other goddesses and gods. It happened fast, the dark stone started cracking! I shook my head in disbelief! I grabbed the stone in one movement.

Mom -

"What's wrong?"

Laputa -

"If it shatters...it will let the demons free into the human realm..." My hands were covered in stone dust.

Mom -

"Let me have the stone."

Laputa -

"No, love must fight against hate," I placed my hands on her cheeks after putting the stone down. "If I don't fight against hate, then everyone is in for a lot of trouble, all over the realms. For 201 years, your children were put to death mommy, that was because..."

Mom -

I didn't like that look on her face, disappoinment.

Laputa -

"If they didn't...the darkness... would only weaken for a short period of time," she spontaneously changed her mood super quick.

Mom -

"I have an idea!" She raised an eyebrow at me. "We need something that will conceal the demons, something...that has no value."

Laputa -

"I'd say we could keep it in a rock...but, it's pretty much broke," I whispered. Daisy smiled she got up and quickly went down the hallway. She came back with a genie lamp.

Daisy -

"This is just something I found in a antique store," they stared at it.

Laputa -

"What does it do?"

Diasy -

"Well, I'm not exactly sure, I just thought it looked cool," I slowly sat it in front of them.

Mom -

"It could work."

Laputa -

"I need it to tether to it though, so I wouldn't be the one...so...sleepy," I slowly put my head down.

Mom -

"No...don't," I brought her back towards me, she blinked back.

Laputa -

"I'm sleepy..." She took the stone from me and placed it into the genie lamp. Mommy took my hands, and placed them on the sides of it.

Mom -

"Whisper the spell," I smiled a little. She hugged the lamp instead, and as soon as she did so, black smoke slowly creeped out.

Daisy -

"Is...that a good thing?"

Mom -

"Laputa fell asleep," I whispered. I made a bubble, it went around the lamp, to keep the darkness in.

Daisy -

She picked Laputa up, and stared at her.

Mom -

"Laputa is the 201th, baby."

Daisy -

"What?"

Mom -

Sadly, I nodded. "I was tricked into killing all of my children," I whispered. "She's not really sleeping..." Her skin was pale.

Daisy -

"She's dead?" She sadly nodded.

Mom -

"...Yes..." Slowly I pulled her closer to my chest. The bubble was filled with complete black smoke.

Daisy -

"Should...we run?" She got up and nodded. We rushed out of the house, just as the black smoke slowly drifted out of windows.

Mom -

The darkness was getting bigger, and bigger by seconds. Everyone screamed and started running.

Daisy -

"What a wonderful day!" I yelled out to my neighbors, the old woman slowly looked over, and her dog yelped. Serves them right! Damn dog pooping in my yard!

Mom -

We got into some weird carriage, and she gassed the thing.

Daisy -

"This is a car," I breathed out fast, "very quick and fast way to get the hell out of here!" We got to the center of town. People were running every where and robbing stores!

Mom -

"...Does this happen often?..."

Diasy -

"Yes, actually, anything that involves the ends of the world."

Mom -

"Oh," I started crying as I held Laputa, I have ruined everything again. My only baby is dead.

Diasy -

"She's a beautiful girl," I awkwardly glanced over. "She told me you had responsibilities to attend to, so you couldn't be her mother."

Mom -

"For so long, I have fought with the darkness," I groaned a little.

Diasy -

"All she wanted to do was help?"

Mom -

"Yes, and I wanted to protect her from that," I kissed Laputa on the forehead. "She didn't understand, I couldn't keep her away though, she was my daughter, and I knew I couldn't keep her from everything. In the end, she died."

Daisy -

"She meant well."

Mom -

"She didn't listen to me," I whispered.

Daisy -

"They are young," I smiled.

Mom -

"Too young..." She nodded a little. We came to a stop, the darkness was surrounding the town, there was no way out.

Daisy -

"Do you think we should get out?" She sadly nodded. Just as we sat on the grass, Laputa's eyes opened, white.

Mom -

"Lap..." She got up and slowly walked to a tree.

Daisy -

"What are you doing!?" I shouted. She was raised up into the sky, and then the clouds darkened.

Mom -

Lighting all collected to her, and the lightning turned pink. The darkness all came to the middle, and formed into a tornado. "Laputa!" She wasn't listening, it wasn't her, or mean she just wasn't there. Her skin slowly turned into scales, I have a dragon form, but she gets her silver from her father.

Daisy -

"She's huge..." My mouth dropped, "she wasn't that big before..."

Mom -

"A goddess," I smiled. "This is her true form, a goddess can live forever. Laputa's true form, is a dragon, and so is mine, except, Laputa is half," she has the powers of a goddess, and a light witch, because her father was a light wizard.

Daisy -

She blew some fire out, but it was pink also, why is her's pink? She burned the darkness, sending flames going up like a tunnel. She turned back into her human form, and this time, she had a bow, with an arrow...the arrow had a heart at the end. She's like cupid.

Mom -

Her hair grew longer, and she turned into...a young woman, a very gorgeous woman.

Daisy -

She was beautiful, I mean, every where is was dark, and the only light in the sky, was a pink haired woman, with a white robe on. She shot the arrow up, and the darkness was scattered. It was like fireworks shot off. The sky turned light pink, and slowly the woman turned back to that little girl, and she slowly came down.

Mom -

"Laputa!" She turned and looked at me, her eyes flashed white, before returning to her original color, blue.

Laputa -

"Yes?"
