Story:

My name is Walter Simmons and Orphan. I don't remember my parents all i remember is they got really sick and died. I was taken to the local orphanage because they couldn't find any of other family. It wasn't all that bad the food was ok and it was warm and I had a place to sleep. There I met Theresa Mannon she told me the rules and introduced me to everyone and warned me about Richard Morrison. Now Richard is a bully he picks on everyone is good at not getting caught ,lucky he hangs out mostly on the third floor. I end up spending most of my time in the Fields there I met Michael he was the grounds keeper and he taught me everything i know about planting and tending. Well that enough of my history the important thing happened about 8 years later....

It was the begining of spring time and for the spring cleaning everyone has a job to mine was tilling the field to get ready for planting. Everyone were doing their job cept for Richard he snuck off to the roof to fool around. Theresa saw him and told the head master about it and he got caught. He was Whiped while he recited a passage for his punishment. Well some how he found out the Theresa turned him in and went up to the third floor to find her. Jacob saw him going up stairs to find and ran to tell me what was happening. So I rand up the stair as fast as i could. I was turning up the final landing that when I heard heard Theresa scream. Thats when I saw Richard hit her and threw her down the stairs. Everything started happening in slow motion. I saw hit fall face first of the top of the stairs. I saw her hit head first in the middle of the stairs. I heard a loud snap. She fliped over. She landed at my feet. Her head was twisted sideways. I heard Father Michael yelling and running up the stairs. I saw Father Peter grab Richard's arm. Then I saw and angel appear above Theresa's body. He said to me, "You can save her you have the power to heal her. Lay your hands and believe and she will be saved." Stunned i droped to my knees laid my hands on her neck and prayed for her to be healed... Father Michael saw us bathed in a bright white light. He saw Theresa's neck pop back into place and right it self. I passed out.

There was alot of questions after that I don't remember everything but I remember telling them what I saw. A day later my Aunt arrived to take me with her to her home in the country. She said her name was Sara Helmsly. A friend of hers , Michael our grounds keeper told her about me. She told me about my power and i started my training into the Verbena.

After my training, One of my teachers came to visit me and said I owned a small piece of land in the city. That land was located on a small node not very powerful but still it would suit my needs. He also said the no one was able to get near it. Due to a large Dog thats protecting it. Well I went to see my land i saw no dog anywhere around there. I fixed up the house and set up a Safe place to practice my craft. Once I had everything in order I left to visit the orpanage...

Opon arriving to the orpanage there was a Mark of sickness on the door. I knocked and Father Michael answer and told me to go away. I said I came to help like I helped Theresa before I left. He finally reconized me and let me in. He told me that everyone was sick. I ask him to take me to a barrel of drinking water. I took it to the field washed my hands and face in a vail of water i kept with me. Places a few herbs from the garden and prayed over the water. I told the father to give everyone a small amount of this water to everyone in oraphange. Soon after everyone recovered. I was about to leave until I was grabed from behind. It was Theresa she was the only person in the Oraphanage not to get sick. We sat and talked and joked just like old time. I asked to come to my home and helped me. I told her i need a friend I could trust. She happily agreed and we headed back to my home.

As we turned in to my yard I saw a VERY large Dog approach us. Then I heard a voice in my head saying "Its about time you got back. By the way, my name is Fred."
