Why, she asks why? Trying to hide her fear with pride. But the silence from her protector was deafening.
Stubbornness lifts her to her feet. She is surprised that she is as tall as the woman who once towered above her.
Why she pleads. Her salty tears having begun long ago, for she new this day would come.
The beautiful woman sighed and allowed her wings to take their full breadth. The girl felt the blocking of the sun.
Isabella this is your time. It comes for us all. Now go forth and take pride in your task.
Isabella allowed her wings to open. Noticing for the first time that they were larger and stronger than her mentor.
She leapt from the secret spot. And with her single push of faith a new guardian was released.
