Magical Ties 92 Aisling's Sleep

"Child it's almost time to wake up. Do you know what you will do?"

Aisling looks at her and nods.

"Yes I will forgive them of course , since it is partly my fault that they think they are ent.i.tled to more than they are. I just was so angry that they can't understand that I share with them. Why do they need it all?" Looking up at the sky it clear blue with large fluffy white clouds floating across.

" they will understand when you get back. Moll called your mother and father. Your father showed them his shame and sin. " Aisling looked at her with concern.

"So they are going to know what he did. They may think it was my fault. Is it bad that I come and hide here with you every time something I can't handle happens? I get conflicted sometimes because of the different beliefs in my family. "

" No dear it's not because your heart is pure. You do not do things for materialistic gain. You do what is for the best of the whole. Just like when so many were struggling you quietly sold a few non essential valuables and without them knowing helped them. You never asked for anything in return. You have always only used your gift to protect. You know your husband is beside himself with worry . I think it time for you and those two little ones to return. Thank you my child for being who I expect you to be ." Aisling hears someone approaching she turns and sees just a fiery light. She sees Morrigan kneel. A voice comes from the light.

"You asked if you were wrong in believing in the different beliefs of your heritage. No child for I am in all of them . I am represented in all. I know that recently you have embraced the more magical side but you have never left the other go by the wayside. You greet me each day giving thanks ,you show kindness for others and give thanks to me at each meal. You talk to me when you are troubled . You say good night to me before you sleep. You respect the beliefs of all . Never fear I will let you know when you have strayed. Now wake from this dream and greet your worried family . Remember forgiveness is always the best way to go." With the voice fading away Aisling opens her eyes. To look into those of her loving husband.

"Aisling darling can you please stop doing this to me . I do not think my heart can take it if anything were to happen. I love you more than my life. I am here for you. The only reason ,I did not interfere more earlier was because I promised John . I promised that I would be there to protect you but would let you decide when to step in. Next time please let me handle it. " he kisses her softly on her mouth . Wanting nothing more than to hold her close . To make sure she is truly ok.

Aisling asks for her siblings.

"Are they ok , is my brother still here or did he leave. ?" She looks at him not wanting to let him go.

"They both are here. They are outside waiting to see if you would see them." She looks at him and weakly smiles. Nodding her head.

"Only one can come in at a time." She nods ok. Closing her eyes to brace herself for what they may accuse her of now. Her brother homes in first. He looks at her sullenly.

"Hey Red, I'm sorry you know I'm a selfish greedy b.a.s.t.a.r.d. I should have never said those things about you. I should never have tried to take something that wasn't mine to take. Especially when you have always given me whatever I have asked for. Do you think you can forgive me just a little?"

"I forgive you but your punishment still stands. I'm sorry but I am tired of being used and abused. I love you and do not want there to be a rift between us. You placed that between us only you can work to remove it. I'm always willing to forgive you . My home will always be open to you but it's not there for you to take." She closes her eyes and starts to cough violently she can barely breathe. Moll rushes in when she hears her and places a oxygen mask on her to help her. She glares at the boy so he gets up to leave.

"Sis I am going back to the base tonight I will call to check in you ok I do love you."

Moll gets her calmed down and resettled. She goes out and tells everyone that she is not up for anymore visitors. Only one person is allowed to stay with her. So everyone else needs to go home. With that Audis let's Astila know that until Aisling is stable he is on leave unless there is an emergency. Astila goes in and sits beside her bed holding her hand . Tears streaming down his face as he hears her struggle to breathe. He feels a tap on his shoulder. There beside him are the spirits of her ancestors Waya and Daisy hold out their hands to him Willow takes Daisy's hand and Ester takes Waya. John sneaks in and places his hand on Astila's shoulder and one on Aisling's hand. They all begin to pray . As they begin to pray John begins to speak in angel tongues. A warm feeling moves through the room . A fiery glow fills the room the voices of the spirits can be heard joining in with John. Aisling opens her eyes tears running down her cheeks as she reaches for the fire above her. As it encompa.s.ses her body Astila hears John say .

"Heavenly father hear oh G.o.d my prayer heal this child of yours. Give her peace from her fears and worries. Father she is your child send your healing fire through her taking and burning all infection from her . Touching her unborn children make them strong and healthy. For she is chosen by you for a great purpose. Father she is who holds our family together with out her we would be lost. In your holy name by the blood of your son I pray amen" when he is done he leaned down and kissed her on the forehead and placing his on hers. Aisling baby you need to get up from this bed . Your family is here praying for you . I love you child. With that he winks at Astila and tells him he will see him in the morning. When he was gone so was the spirits. Moll comes in and checks her vitals. Her fever has broke and her breathing is clearer. She smiles at him.

"The one thing this family has more than any other is the capacity to love and forgive. The entire hallway was lined with her family making the complete circle around the unit. The front walk in front of the hospital was lined as well. They all were saying the same prayer. Your family joined in also even your brother. They would not let hers leave until the prayer was complete. She has been healed I guarantee it. I will let her sleep and tomorrow you can bet when I run the test her lungs will be clear." With that Moll leaves the two of them for the night.
