The Daughters just looked shocked for a minute, none of them saying a word. Finally, Catty broke the silence. "I want to check it out, the part about her spirit splitting." She looked at her watch and before anyone knew it, she had disappeared in time.

"You don't believe me," Stanton said, not needing to read their minds thanks to Catty's disappearance and the other's faces of distrust.

"It's just hard to believe," said Tianna.

Catty reappeared next to Stanton. "He's right. I saw it in the hospital room. Shadow and light went their separate ways. It was weird."

"How is she more powerful?" asked Serena.

"She has the power of the Atrox in her, being his child. But now she possesses the power of a strong Follower as well. She could defeat with one burst of power."

"So how do you expect us to defeat her?" asked Vanessa.

"By calling on her light side. I must go. They have discovered my disappearance." And with that, he dissolved into shadow once more and returned to Nefandus.

The Daughters looked at each other, each with the same amount of confusion on their faces. "How do we do that?" asked Jimena.

"Um, Jennifer's light side, we need you," called Catty. Nothing happened. "Worth a try."

"Let's go talk to Maggie tomorrow," suggested Vanessa. "If anyone knows, she will."

"Yeah, that sounds good. But for now, let's just have fun," said Tianna.

They all agreed and went back to their plans. But the night wasn't the same.

"Where have you been?" demanded Jennifer.

"I couldn't handle the noise. I needed air," said Stanton, blocking his mind to her.

"And if I don't believe you?"

"Just take my word. I am your father's most trusted Follower."

"But not mine."
