Aroma

After taking a sip from her tea the witch continued, “The princesses third birthday was approaching and the rose still had not been found. However it had grown quite a bit over the year after it had absorbed the princesses’ blood. I had a huge white bud on it but it had still yet to bloom. On the day of her birthday the queen noticed a pink glow coming from the gardens. She gathered up the princess and made her way there to see what it was. What she came upon shocked her speechless.”

Kagome’s eyes widened and she asked quickly, “What was it?”

Smiling the witch looked at her, “Lying in the fully bloomed white rose was a baby girl. The bloom was large enough to cradle her perfectly. The queen rushed over and gathered the baby in her arms. The princess being so young did not understand and asked her mother if roses where wear babies came from. The queen just nodded her head. Grabbing the princesses’ hand she rushed back into the palace to her husband. He could not believe that he had missed one rose and that the child had been born anyway.”

The witch paused here to take a sip of tea. “When the child opened her eyes they were sapphire blue and her hair was so black that it looked blue when the light hit it just right and her sent has the aroma of thousands upon thousands of roses. This child had been born from the blood of the princess.”
