Disclaimer: Lets see here…I own Me, and my characters, My friend owns Kristen…and there will be more when I think up more characters!
Summary: Sequel to Tangled Battle. Four years have past and Pred lives an odd life in L.A. But what will happen when her true love returns? Now Pred has a group of hunters after her head…and the feds want her too. They know almost everything about her…which can only mean that someone close betrayed her. A devastating reality is turned to Pred as her friend also turns out to be someone unexpected.

My name is Pred Xnentar. I have lived in L.A. for 4 years now under the rule of that bastard Jake who calls himself my husband. I'm now 28 and have a job at a down town bar. I also now stand at most a solid 7'. I have a few friends…one of them is Kristen. She is obsessed with Xenos…which I find odd but never question why. I don't know why but ever since I was left here…it feels as if a part of my soul is missing…

(Bar in L.A.)
I swiftly moved out of everyone's way as I tried to head towards the door. Someone shoved me hard in the shoulder and I growled.A would you please get out of my way would be nice! "Hey Pred!" I turned swiftly to see a woman with brown curly hair pushing her way towards me. I smiled at how flustered she looked and helped her out of the crowd. "You got off your shift early? Wow the boss man must really like you." I grinned and opened the door, she followed me out onto the sidewalk.
"Yeah sure. The asshole probably just likes my body." She laughed not knowing the real reason why I said that. "So why were you trying to catch up to me in there Kristen?" She shrugged her shoulders. "I dno. Maybe to see if you saw your 'man' any where in the club today." I sighed and looked away. Why did she always have to bring up the fact that I'm always looking for someone? Kristen had cornered me one day and told me to explain so I explained...but not everything. I only told her that my heart belonged to someone and that someone was not Jake or any of the men in the club.
My eyes then traveled upwards to the sky. 4 whole years. 4 whole years since they left me…since he left me and yet I couldn't forget him. Reaching my hand back I trailed my hand up my ponytail and onto the clasp that held it there. Kristen poked me in the side breaking the trance that I dug myself into. "Yo Pred you're doing the little 'look up at the sky then touch the gold clasp in my hair' thing again."
I shook my head trying hard to dismiss the memories and looked at my best friend. She suddenly grinned. "So…if you think your young enough…do you want to come over to my house and play AvP again?" I grinned back at her. "Let me guess…me-predator, you-alien?" Kristen chuckled.
"You better believe it…and I'm gonna whop your sorry ass again!" I punched her playfully. "Not if I whop your ass first!" She laughed again and started to walk in the direction of her apartment. I looked up at the sky one last time then followed Kristen who had stopped and started to shout out that I was such a slow poke. My eye twitched and I growled. We then laughed and continued on.

"Damn it! I can't believe I lost again!" I mumbled hotly under my breath as I walked back to my house. Kristen had beat me again at the game and I couldn't figure out how she kept on doing it. Damn! Why is it so dark? The sky was black and it was only…I looked at my watch…6:30! "Oh fuck these long nights." I swore and continued my trek.
Coming up to my house I skipped up the steps and slammed my key into the lock, anxious to get inside. Something was grinding my nerves and I had no idea what was causing it. I growled and stepped inside.
I locked the door and threw my coat on the floor. I marched into the second bedroom, (I do not sleep in the same room as Jake, for I fear that he might try and take my innocence away.) and fell face first onto the bed. Fuck this day. I thought and slammed my fist into the pillow. Why was I acting all worked up? Oh yeah now I remember! The 'boss man' said that he would give me a raise if I let him screw me. The bastard.
I ended up in giving him the finger and storming out of his room. Later he said that he'd let me go early so I could 'reconsider' my choice. I wanted to scream in his face 'Don't give me this shit cause I don't want it!' But I held my peace. I gave him the finger again and left. Thats when Kristen had caught up to me.
I snarled and turned over so that I was looking at the ceiling. The fucker thought that he could use me as a little sex toy…he was no better then Jake. A coldness suddenly came trough my body, claming my anger but leaving me to wonder.
Tell me Pred old girl…why haven't you mated with anyone yet? I mean…you are married. A part of me chided. I flopped over onto my side and looked out the window. "Because…" I whispered, letting the truth come out for only a second. "They don't have the other half of my soul."
