The branch

Shawn was the best tree cutter in the city. He been doing it for fifteen years, he know how to climb, hold on and use any saw. There was nothing that could surprise him. Today he was chopping a tree it was a old pine tree. When he started cutting it a dark blue liquid starts to dip out.

"What the hell!" Shawn said in surprise.

"Ancient trees are truly amazing aren't they?" A voice said.

Shawn looked down to see a lady, she was wearing a dark cloak with bright red hair.

"Who are you?"

"A lost soul."

"Get away from here, your interfering with my work"

"I need your help."

"I can cut your trees this Sunday."

"Not with that..."

"Then with what?"

"I need you to help me find myself, I need to return to my body. I don't know how long I have before its to late."

"I'm a gardener not a soul finder."

"Yet you don't think I'm crazy, please I found true love in the moral world, I need to get back."

"Ask the tree, for it is wise."

The lady when slowly up to the tree.

"Phaunos I call upon your soul to hear my plea for help. I need to return to the moral world, for I found the meaning of life."

The tree swayed slowly, "who are you to call upon the sleeping gods" a voice using the wind answered.

"It is I Andrea Lily Magnes, daughter of the outcast god Ares Magnes!"

"Liar! Ares is dead, Athena killed him so long ago!"

"My father is very well alive, for he fled to earth to seek refuge where we married my mother Emily Johnson.

"Why do you deserve to live again?"

"For I'm half god, my lover can not fight him on his own, my sister is still loyal to are father."

"This tree bleeds blue, it has faith in you. Yes I you may return to the moral world. But you will only find endless pain."

"I will rather suffer then not see my lover again."

The tree moved slowly, it dripped its blue blood on the ground. Andrea touched the tree and she was back in the moral world.
