I gained control of my body and mind again, which, I was grateful for. I hated being out of control... It was like-
....I couldn't say. I would make myself have visions, causing a panic attack, and we don't want that to happen, now do we?

I remember reading my favorite book: "The Prophecy Of The Wolf Mare" I was reading it for the 35th time. I remember this quote: "All at once everything will collide and connect together. They will make sense to the shadowy mind."

I remember that quote always sticking out from the rest of the things said in the book. It was quite interesting.

"I didn't know that.. Hmm... That's real interesting." Sterope said, learning knowledge. Astra looked hopeful at her now fully grown chicks... It was time to say goodbye.

Each of them came down to her, gave her hugs, and all shared their farewells.. And one by one, just as they hatched, they were gone. Just like in a flicker of light a life can be gone, or returned.

It was hard saying goodbye to the things you loved, but necessary. You got used to it, after a while.

The phoenix flew off in all directions. They flew towards the sunset, and off into the Everfree. They would start a life of their own, and a story of their own... They would also find the meaning of survival. I hoped that nothing with the humans would corrupt their story... But.. Something would. Something would be an obstacle in their lives. Life was never easy, it was always hard... But if you fell, you needed to get back up.. And, carry on.

Astra held back her tears, as she softly smiled at the sunset. She sighed and looked at Sterope. She would miss them, she knew, but she also knew 'if you love something, let it go.' Which was true.
