The wind was blowing fiercely and I could hear the
            ocean and the sea crashing into each other. The sound
            was deafening.
                I managed to work my way to the edge of the cliff.  I
            couldn’t see much in the darkness, but the drop off was
            steep  and  I  could  hear  the  turbulent  waters  echoing
            from below.

                I sat  near  the edge for a  few minutes;  then,  rolled
            my sweater  into a  pillow, lay  down, closed my eyes,
            and waited for sunrise, all the while trying to silence my
            mind. I suddenly felt someone coming towards me.
                 “Oh  no,” I thought, “Am I in trouble?”  Opening
            my eyes I saw a male figure approaching.

                I was about to take flight when a kindly voice said,
            “My name is Pineaha, I am a guardian of this land just
            like my ancestors before me. Your Nana Grace sent me
            a telepathic message to keep a watch out for you.”

                “A what, a telepathic message? What is going on?
            Who is she? Who is he? How does she know I am here?
            Am I never going to escape Miss Grace?”

                But, I was also quite glad that he was there to watch
            over me. As he came closer I saw a kindly and yet
            stately older man with an almost impish twinkle in his

            eye.  Not very tall, but his presence was one that would
            fill a room.
                                                                         115
