Chapter 20

Who will destroy the Crystal?

I was so enthralled with the beauty of the crystal I could not bring myself to destroy it. Then I could hear the insistent of Seven's voice warning me to destroy it and I knew I had to, when I felt someone holding my hand and I found I was looking at a mirror image of my self, but I was torn in-between listening to Seven and my twin self who called herself Anna a name that sounded familiar to me. She kept saying to me 'don't listen to him, he only wants it for him self, do you want to destroy such beauty.
Then I could just hear Seven's voice which was fading saying, 'Becca, Becca, listen to me, not her, she only steal your negative side that is you and make you weak as Sef made me weak.'

Seven realised that Becca was not going to listen to him and tried to get to Becca to get the Crystal and found something like a force field preventing him from moving in There was only one thing to do and that was to get Sef to help him as he was also attached to its influence and he only had 1 hour before it completely took hold. Seven was a bit averse about asking Sef help, but if he wanted to save Becca from herself, it had to be done.

Seven caught up with Sef, who was acting his lazy self doing nothing lying down by the fire pretending, not sure what to do to impress the guiding hand, knowing he had no intention to work or learn. 'So that where you are, laying down on the job again.'
'This is unusual dear brother,' not bothering to get up. 'It must be pretty urgent if you want my help.'
'I would not ask for your help if you were the last surviving villager in the tribe, I'm doing this for Becca not me, so you better listen good.'
'I like Becca too, so I will help on one condition.'
'Name it!!' Seven said knowing it would not be good and was surprised and shocked what Sef's condition was.
'I want to marry Becca's daughter Rosemary when she is come of age of 18.'
'No way, I cannot give you permission and besides I want her to choose her own mate when she is 18.'
'Then I cannot help you.' Sef explained leaving Seven in a situation in which he did not want to be in, and then he thought maybe when the crystal is destroyed; the influence will wear off so in the end he agreed. Seven held out his hand, 'It's a deal.'

After Seven told Sef about Crystal taking hold of Becca and Sef who did not want any one else to own the crystal besides him jumped up straightaway where he was laying down. 'Why did you not tell me this brother, you should never have let Becca get hold of it?'
'Why I never thought you had such concern before... Oh yes I know you don't have any concerns you just afraid of some one else keeping it.'
'Oh Seven, how could you think such a thing of me?' Sef said.

Seven and Sef went together back to Becca to find only her mirror twin Anna and Seven ask, where is...
Sef interrupted saying, 'Let me handle this.' And he whispered in Anna's ear and she handed the crystal back to Seven and as soon as Seven retrieved the Crystal, he threw it to the ground and it smashed in many peaces and a strange thing happened, Sef and Anna both fell unconscious on the ground and Seven saw me suddenly appear.
I asked a bit 'What has happened here and who is these two laying on the ground they look like me and you,'
'I no idea, lets ask them.'Seven said As the two of them got up rubbing their heads groaning and they looked at us also saying, 'Who are you.'

'I Seven and this is my mate Becca.'
I am Sef and this is Anna I just met and from then on we were great friends and Brought up many children together Anna and I seemed to like many the same things and even had triplet girls that all looked alike and we always had problems trying to know which were mine who were Anna's as they always like playing jokes on us.

Our village went on with life and Seven and I lived to grow old together.

THE END

I feel sad this story had to end at lest it was happy ending
