and
according
to the
sensibilities
of those eras
our family
has been
called to
serve...
You, and others that have
come before you, are the key
to unlocking that tool which has
the ability to give shape and form
to unholy creatures, bringingthose monsters into our
plane of existence.
A childs
imagination is
a powerful
tool.
You arethe yin
to a childs
yang.
our guise
as protectors
has taken
various
incarnations.

The obligation to
defend a childs life from
absolute evil is ingrained
into the Rose bloodline.
Only in the most
dire of times is a
Rose called to...
However, that is not to
say every Rose descendent
is blessed with these
unique abilities.
OK.Just
stop.
Please.
For you,
babysitting
is the mask
by which
you will
serve.
This
is all too
much.

I had
hoped this path
would never
reveal
itself.
I had hoped
that you wouldcontinue living a
blissful, albeit,
uneventful life
as a normal,
teenage girl.
But from the
moment you were
born, you were
marked with the
power of the
Rose family.
More often times
than not, such pathsare not of our own
choosing.
The men who attacked
me at the Campbells? I
killed them?
Yes. But
labeling those
creatures as
menis an act of
generosity by
any degree.
Mere
foot
soldiers
as it were,
members of
an insidious
cult known
as theBrother-hood of
Sleep.Their
only goal
is to open
the gates
of hell by
eliminating
any Rose
endowed with
the power
to stop
them.
Fortunately,
your power manifesteditself as a protection
of sorts. When you have
mastered your abilities,
this fail-safe will no
longer be needed.

how did
they know where
to find...
every
puppet
has a
puppeteer.
they
wont
stop.
they
will not
stop.
But thatdoes not
mean you are
powerless
to stop
them.
theyll
keep
coming
and...
no.

To deprive
of power,
strength or
capacity.
Verb.
7/29/2019 Aurora Rose issue 3

...is the
definition of
incapacitate.
that...
yeah.
And next time
I improvise on
cleanin up your
mess, Ill keep
that in mind.
So, other than
flushing 11 years of
trust down the toilet,
kinda fuzzy on what
the whole point
of this was.
The point, JuJu,was to send a message
neither she, nor my
grandmother will
soon forget.
7/29/2019 Aurora Rose issue 3

My dear
sister now
has no one to
turn to
and
nowhere
to run.
The pointwas to
take all she holds
dear in her life
and smash it into
a million pieces.
The only
person who
will be there
for her time
of need...
She is as lost
as she ever was
with no hope of
rescue, not even
from my dear,
grandmother.
7/29/2019 Aurora Rose issue 3

will be her
long, lost, twin
brother.
