~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A little, brown-haired girl stood waiting for her aunt to give birth,
hoping the new baby will be a boy. The five year old girl's name is
Dina Li and she was thrilled on finding out her aunt might be having a
son.

Dina stands there curious and waiting impatiently as the door suddenly
opened and a is nurse standing there, smiling.

Dina's mother, Jana, turns and walks over. "Is it..?"

"Yes it's a boy." The nurse answers.

Dina gave a happy shout and asked to see the new baby.

"Yes." Jana says. The girl runs into the room and up to her aunt.
"Aunt Yelan? May I hold the baby please?" Yelan smiled down at her
niece. "Yes, just be careful, Dina." She slowly handed the baby to
her.

"What do you think I should name him?" Dina looked down at the small
baby she's holding, staring at him. The small baby stares back, amber
colored eyes opened wide. "Little wolf."

"Little wolf? Why that name?" Her aunt questioned.

"Because he has amber eyes like a wolf. He's my wolf." Yelan, Jana and
the nurses all laugh at that.

The young girl looks confused at why they are laughing.

"So his name shall be Xiao-Lang which means Little Wolf." Yelan says,
smiling.

Jana looked down at her daughter. "Why did you want the baby to be a
boy sweetheart?"

The girl looks up at the adults. "Because I want someone to play with
and dress up..there aren't that many boys in the family, Momma."

Yelan smiled which quickly becomes a frown as Xiao Lang starts to cry,
announcing he's hungry. Dina nods then her eyes widen as the baby in
her arms starts to cry loudly. Yelan looks worried that Dina might
drop the baby. Dina looks at then her new cousin then up at her aunt.

"Why is he crying, Aunt Yelan? Did I hurt him?"

"No, you didn't." Yelan took her son back from Dina. "He's hungry,
little one."

Jana took her daughter's hand. "Come Dina, we should go home and let
your aunt rest."

"But Momma...I wanna stay with the baby."

"We'll come back tomorrow." Dina nodded sadly, knowing that tone of
her mother's.

"Bye Aunt Yelan."

"Goodnight Jana, Dina." Jana looked down at her daughter as they
leave. "Dina?"

"Yes Momma?"

"Why are you so insisted on calling your new cousin your's?" The
hazel-eyed girl looks up at her mother.

"I had a dream about him, Momma, he needs me."

"I see." Jana said, thinking about what her daughter said and made a
point to talk to her sister tomorrow about it.

Dina climbed into the backseat and lets her mother buckle her in, then
gets in herself. Jana drove home, still wondering what Dina's dream
could mean and if her newborn nephew will need her daughter like she
said. Jana pulled the car to a stop before one of the Li mansions and
got out, opening Dina's door and unbuckled her.

"Go get ready for bed, Dina."

"Yes, Momma." The young child ran for the house, racing pass a maid
who sighed and calls out.

"Don't run in the house Mistress Dina." Jana walks in at a slower
pace.

"She ignored you again?"

"She always did, Mistress Jana." The maid said as she closed the door.

"Thank you." Jana walked upstairs to check on Dina and make sure she's
ready for bed soon. Dina sitting in bed, waiting for her mother to
tell her goodnight.

"Night Momma."

"Goodnight, Dina. And we will go back to visit your aunt and cousin."
Jana smoothed her daughter's hair back and kissed her forehead. "Now
get some sleep."

Dina curled up in her bed, holding her favorite toy as she goes to
sleep. In her sleep she dreamed that her new cousin will need her
help, seeing him with two strange girls and trying to find out what is
causing those strange happenings. She saw herself standing by a large
tree, holding a sword in one hand and wearing ceremonial robes.

Dina can hear them talking and see the worried look on their faces as
they try to find out who is behind this. Just as she is learning more,
she woke up with a thud having fallen out of her bed.

A maid comes into the room, having been walking pass when she heard
the noise. "Mistress Dina? Are you alright?"

"Yes I'm fine. I..had a bad dream."

"Do you need anything?" The maid asked before leaving.

"No." Dina got back into bed and tried to fall asleep again but unable
to get her mind off her dream. "Momma or Aunt Yelan never said they
had these type of dreams when they were this young..."

As morning dawns, Dina fell asleep only to be woken about three hours
later to go to the hospital with her mother to pick up her aunt and
cousin.

On the ride home, Dina watched her cousin as he sleeps in the child
seat specially made for babies. "Is he going to sleep forever, Aunt
Yelan?" She wanted to play with him so badly but doesn't dare waking
him.

"Babies sleep a lot, as he gets older he will sleep less but that
won't be for several months." Yelan said, looking at her niece. The
girl nodded as if she understoof.

"Can I help take care of him?"

"Yes you may." A happy smile crossed her face.

"Thank you!"

Jana broke in. "Yelan, do you really think a five-year-old can handle
helping with a newborn? Dina might be too young for that just yet."

"Jana, if we make our children learn magic at that age then they can
help with a baby." Yelan says firmly.

Jana frowned but only nodded. "If you say so, sister, but I believe my
daughter is too young to do that just yet Though I shall allow her for
now." Dina stayed quiet during her mother and aunt talking, thrilled
she's allowed to help.

Yelan got out and gently lifted her son, her niece bouncing around her
and started to show Dina how to care for a baby. Xiao-Lang woke up and
stared at his cousin as she stood next to his crib.
