Chapter 4

Kai's p.o.v (7 years old.)

I'm totally blind now, have been for a year. Nya is now my sole purpose of living. I care for her since mom and dad were taken. Nya thinks they left, abandoned us but I know the real story.

(Flash back, 1 year ago. )

Kai's p.o.v  (6 years old)

Opening my eyes, I reach over and pull my shades off the nightstand. Putting them on and grabbing my walking stick. Coming to the dinning room, I sniff for my plate. Finding it and sitting down, I begin eatting. Motion in my field has me looking at Nya.

She jumps into my arms, she nuzzles into my neck. "Hey son, Dr.Saunders will be here in a bit, you and Nya can go play." I nod but something doesn't feel right.

Playing with Nya, I go to the kitchen to get us some cookies. I see mama, daddy and Dr.Saunders. mama offers Saunders a cup of tea and he knocks it out. He pulls a sword out and makes man and daddy walk.

I run out, grabbing dad's pants leg. Dad kneels beside me, my sight is so bad, I only see balls of fuzz. Narrowing my eyes, dad's face becomes clear enough to see his smile. "Be strong son, and watch over Nya." Dad than leans in, whispering in my ear.

Dr.Saunders yanks my dad away and I stand tall. Father's last words rang in my ears still. Turning back to the house, I go inside.

(Present day.)

Arms wrap around my legs, Nya nuzzles into my back. I turn around, pick sissy up and she hugs my neck. The timer goes off and I set Nya on the counter.

Opening the oven door, I grasp the pan with mits and pull out the cake. Red velvet, Nya's favorite. Turning it over, tapping the bottom, the cake comes out perfect. Nya helps icing the cake and I put candles on it. Four, sissy is four today.

I pick up Nya, spinning her around. She giggles is I start singing.

Feliz cumpleaños a ti
feliz cumpleaños a ti
feliz cumpleaños Nya
feliz cumpleaños a ti.

Nya blows the candles out and I cheer. Cutting the cake, Nya takes her piece. I hold mine when it's squashed against my face. Nya laughs her butt off and I smash a piece in hers. Let's just say, the cake didn't get ate.

Tucking Nya in bed, kissing her forehead, I go to the living room. Picking up a book, running my fingers along the pages, I begin reading. Everynight, I spend an hour reading from my lessons. I can sign and read Braille now.

The door opens, Nya peeks her head out. Her little arms wrap around me and I pull her in. Tucking her into my side, I wrap an arm around her and my other continues on the page.

I read from my lessons to her, she soaks it in like a sponge. "Big brother." She says one night as we do this. I turn my head to her, she climes on my lap.

"How can you see. I know your blind but how." Nya asks me. I smile, cupping her cheeks. "I feel the flow around me, it allows me to get a picture of the outside world." I tell her.

"You use your fire like dolphins use their echolocation." Nya asks. I smile, I gained dad's fire when I was four and dad helped train me. I cast a field of fire out that spans three miles and growing. When something or someone enters it, I pick up on it.

But I don't use just fire, I also have water. Nya is the master of water, I feel it in her. But, in the case of me being the eldest of two elemental master's, I gained both. I read it in a book and it's happens very rearly.

"Yes, that's exactly how I use it. But, I can only pick up shapes, not finer details, not yet at least." I tell her. Nya hugs me, I rock and softly hum. I lay her in my bed and we fall asleep.
