Chapter 7

Light was shinning through the window in Helen's bedroom--stirringArrian from his slumber. Slowly opening his eyes, he felt the warm tenderness of Helen's body next to his. He clutched her closer to him, feeling her gently snuggle into him.

He thought, 'I'm the luckiest guy in the world.'

Helen began waking, when she felt the hands holding her to a bare chest. The memories of the previous night filled her mind. Strangely, she didn't feel awkwardness; she felt a much different emotion. What would people say? Her mind was jumbled as she felt Arrian kiss her neck-- a sigh escaping her lips.

"Pretending to sleep are we?" she heard him say, while he hugged her tighter.

She turned to face him, "No, sweetheart. Just enjoying this feeling."

She would have said more, but her lips were engaged by Arrian, with a soft good morning kiss. When they broke apart, each was smiling.

"I think, we need to have a long talk sometime today, but first, we're going to the mall." he said, as he pulled her closer so he could feel her breast mashed up against his chest.

"Ok, we'll go to the mall. This is a first. Arrian asking to go to the mall." she chuckled lightly.

Arrian softly tickled her, bringing out fits of giggles from her. This had a side effect too,. Arrian's dick was now very erect. Helen was very aware of this since it kept pocking her in her tummy.

"Honey, control your self." she said with a coy grin.

"Can't be helped, your gorgeous, and I get to put my hands all over you. This my dear Helen is all your doing," he said as he grabbed his erection.

A grin crossed her face, as she reached down to grab his erection. He grabbed her hand and intertwined his fingers in hers.

"That can wait, we have things to do." he said giving her a kiss before getting up.

Helen stared hungrily at the obvious tent in Arrian's shorts. He too, noticed her stare, more importantly, he saw her hard nipple's pressing against the chemise.

"Take a shower, and get dressed, its going to be warm out today." he said offering her a hand.

"How do you know?" she said taking his hand and getting up.

How did he know? Arrian felt just like he knew it was going to be warm. He just shrugged his shoulders, before surprising Helen by picking her up by her waist and tossing her into the air, only to catch her as she fell. Helen was giggling like a schoolgirl, being picked up like a rag doll by this big strong young man--her man. Setting her down, he gripped her ass in his hands.

"Ohh! That's not fair." she grinned.

"With you, I will never play fair." he said returning her grin.

Patting her round bottom, he ushered her into the bathroom, while he walked to his room.

After closing his door, he leaned against it. He was exhilarated. One thing he was sure of, nothing about what happened last night, bothered him. He loved Helen, and she loved him. While he knew society frowns on unions like theirs, he would fight for them; nothing seemed more natural to him. He dug in his dressers for clothes for their trip to the mall.

He put on his socks and his black jeans... After tying his shoes, he put on a plain white shirt, and walked out.

He noticed that the bathroom shower was still on, so he walked in. Helen didn't notice him at all. He could see the outline of her naked body through the glass door. He stared at her naked body, fantasizing like he had after seeing her finger-fuck herself a couple weeks prior. Her breasts didn't show any sign of sagging, and her ass was so sensual; it seemed like a crime to not caress it.

When the water stopped, Arrian without thinking, grabbed her towel and held it open as she opened the door. Helen couldn't move, when she saw him standing there, holding her towel. She slowly stepped forward; he wrapped the towel around her, planting a series of kisses all over her face, and especially her lips.

He smiled gingerly at her, while still holding her in his arms. Then he felt her hands on his ass! He was startled, and quickly recovered by grabbing her ass. They stood there... They couldn't help, but laugh at the situation. After a few moments of laughter, Helen left to get dressed while Arrian proceeded to wash his face and teeth. He sprayed some water in his hair, and ran his fingers through it which was his preferred way to grooming it.

Making his way into the kitchen, he saw his sister eating some cereal at the counter. She was sitting there dressed in just a t-shirt. He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her. She was startled for a moment, and then she looked behind her at her smiling brother. Seeing him there, she sighed and leaned back into the embrace. He leaned in to kiss her on the cheek, when she abruptly turned her face, and their lips met. Neither moved for what seemed like forever. Slowly, Kailynn began kissing her brother in a way that made her heart flutter and her pussy tingle. Arrian was feeling the same emotions. He controlled himself, and pulled away, from an obviously entranced Kailynn. She still had her eyes closed savoring the kiss.

When she finally opened her eyes, her brother was sitting across the counter from her; she could feel the blush rising in her cheeks.

"Want to go to the mall, Kai?" he asked trying to break the silence.

He knew the answer to the question before her asked. Aside from family, Kailynn loved shopping the most of all. She sat there; not believing her brother was serious.

"Helen is already getting dressed. If you're going to go, you better hurry up and get dressed., ' he said smiling at her.

Kailynn didn't even wait to hear what else he might say, she ran out of the kitchen and up the stairs. Arrian was amazed at how fast his sister ran...

You are faster, my samurai.

Good morning to you too Fujin.

I sense your mother is much happier; she is free of loneliness, and filled with joy.

I sense that as well; I know things won't be easy, but I will make things work. I wanted to ask you something.

Ask away young one.

I told Helen to dress for warm weather, I knew the weather would be warm, How did I know?

Ah, I see. I've given you the power of the wind. Anything the air can do, you can do also. Wind carries nature's furry. The wind can tell you anything that is coming like storms, tornados, and monsoons.

I think, I understand, what about this sense of premonition, I have?

That is more about me wanting you to be prepared at all times. If you can sense people's emotions and zero in on them, it shows focus and determination.

Oh crap, I'm going to the mall, hundreds of people will be there. I don't know if I can manage that many emotions at once.

You will only sense what YOU want to sense. It's how the power works.

Either way, I can't stay holed up forever. I wonder why I don't go crazy at school?

At school, your focus isn't on sensing anyone.

At that moment, Helen walked down the stairs and into the kitchen, she saw Arrian sitting in the kitchen and flashed him a smile. She walked over to him, and making sure Kailynn wasn't around, she planted a big juicy kiss on his lips... He placed his arm around her waist and brought her down on his lap.

"Honey, Kailynn can see us. We need to..." she was cut off when Arrian placed his finger on her lips.

"Kai, is deciding which skirt she is going to put on, as for the other thing you were gonna say. I think she may be more receptive than you think. Seeing as how I accidentally planted a kiss on her this morning." he said with a bemused smile.

Helen thought she would feel jealous if her man ever touched another woman. Strangely, she didn't mind at all. She knew he loved her, in a special way that no other man would ever do...

"How did that happen? Did you put her on your lap too?" she said with a grin.

"No, but that thought does have merit. Actually, she was eating and I gave her a hug from behind. When I reached to kiss her cheek, she turned and lip-locked me."

Helen chuckled as the image of Arrian's descriptions filled her mind.

"You look absolutely beautiful, Helen. I just might ravish you."

Those words were enough to excite Helen to the core. Arrian stared at Helen's luscious figure. Yes, ravish her he will. He planted a quick kiss on her lips and guided her off his lap.

"Kai is dressed, please ask her to wear a longer skirt."

"How would you know what your..." she stopped as Kailynn walked into the kitchen, her skirt was in fact barely covering her bottom.

"Young lady, go back upstairs and put on a more decent skirt." she ordered.

Normally, Kailynn would have tried to argue,, however, seeing her mother's stare was enough to convince her she had better change. Arrian stood up, stretched his muscles, and continued staring at Helen. She turned to look at him, as a single question filled her mind.

"How did you know?" she asked flabbergasted.

He gave her question serious thought. He even considered lying, but that was not an option.

"I have a lot to tell you, some things are pretty crazy, some not. Just wait till tonight; I will explain everything to you then. Now, I just want us to her to the mall, and get some things we all need."

"Do you promise to tell me everything? No secrets?" she asked.

"Cross my heart." making an 'x' over his chest.

Kailynn stepped in a few moments later, this time she wore a denim skirt that was more acceptable. Arrian led his family out of the house and into his car. Pulling out of the driveway, he headed towards the mall.

The Thoran Shopping Center was a dream-come-true for any mall rat. The center was four stories high, filled with: boutiques, jewelry shops, and a giant international food court on the fourth floor. It was filled with neon signs that illuminated every corner of the complex. A sea of people made their way from one shop to another.

"Mommy, mommy! Can we go to Kids World, please?" said the little girl with a gleam in her eye.

Cindy Masterson couldn't help but sigh. Her five-year-old daughter, Sarah loved this place too much for her taste.

"Honey, will you never get tired of that place?"

"Oh, mommy! I'm just a little girl... , ' she said giggling.

It was true. Sarah was tiny, no more than forty pounds, but a very hyper forty pounds. She had short, wavy, brown hair like her mother. Her big brown eyes could melt anyone's heart; which combined with her little dress, she was an angel.

"Ok, Kids World here comes Sarah." Cindy said as she picked her up.

The walk to the playground was uneventful, aside from the unwanted male attention she always received. Sarah wasted no time getting into the ball pit: jumping with the other children like any other five year old. Sitting in the near side benches, Cindy watched as her little girl played to her heart's content. Cindy wasn't the only person watching her daughter; a couple nearby was closely watching Sarah. In another part of the mall, three people were enjoying a meal.

"Oh, you think three3 breakfast burritos was too much?" said a very full Arrian.

Arrian, Helen, and Kailynn were sitting at the food court enjoying a fast food breakfast.

"You eat like a pig, bro." chuckling as she said it.

"Got to eat to keep my strength up, never know when I'm going to exert myself., ' he said flashing a big grin at Helen.

Helen blushed a rosy pink, before looking down at her own plate. They finished their meal and were getting up, when Arrian fell to his knees.

"Baby, are you alright?" said a clearly frightened Helen.

"I feel kinda funny. Like I wanna sleep.' he said.

"Do you wanna go home, and get into bed?" Helen blushed as she realized the double meaning of her words.

Arrian smiled broadly "no, I'll be fine, besides we need to get cell phones. That is why I wanted to come here today. In case of emergencies, we need to be able to reach each other."

"I think Arrian's right mom." Said Kailynn.

"Honey, you've wanted a cell for a more than a year now, it isn't a surprise you agree with your brother."

Kailynn giggled. Arrian got to his feet, feeling less groggy...

"Let's go ladies, technology awaits."

Fujin, I'm not sure but something is very wrong. I don't like this.

I think you are right.

Cindy was conversing with another mother, when she noticed she couldn't hear Sarah's playful laughter. Excusing herself she went near the ball pit, looking for her little girl. She wasn't there! Cindy called out for her daughter, but no one answered. Then she felt a tug on her skirt.

"Her daddy, took her to the restroom cuz she was sleepy." said the little girl.

Oh no, someone has taken my Baby!

Arrian just finished paying for the phones when something tugged on his mind.

"We have to go, now., ' he said grabbing the bags they had amassed.

"What do you mean..."

Helen never finished her question.

"Someone is in trouble, I kinda recognize the person, but I'm not sure. Just follow me."

Not another word was said, as they followed Arrian down the stairs to the lower levels.

Fujin, the person seems familiar I'm not sure how.

Yes, I perceive you are right.

He or she is nearby, I can almost see... HER!

It's a woman?

It's... my teacher. Something is really wrong;, she is absolutely frantic... The Playground!

Arrian ran towards Kids World.

Cindy was frantic, she was yelling out Sarah's name. People were staring at her watching as she cried out. She was losing her mind; her world went black.

In the complex parking lot, a man was carrying a sleeping Sarah, like he was her father. He opened a black van parked on a handicap space, and threw Sarah in the back. A woman appeared, walking towards the van.

"Got us another little bitch for our movie." said the smiling man.

"Let's hurry up the faster we get out of here the more time we have to set it up." replied the woman as she got in the van.

The van was started up and quickly pulled out of the parking structure and headed for destinations unknown.

Arrian had arrived in time to see his teacher faint. He quickly made his way to her, and cleared the people away from her.

"What happened?" he asked one of the bystanders.

"She kept calling out for Sarah, and then she fainted." came the reply among murmurs of agreement.
