Chapter 2

Vaughn sat in his father's office; he looked at his hand. Maybe these projects were too dangerous for Vaughn to be involved in. Vaughn looked at his scorched palm, which hurt, even when he looked at it. He walked around the office, pacing. His father told him he would be right back, but it had been almost two hours.

Suddenly the doors to the office slammed open revealing, Kelly Trent. "Miss. Trent! What are you doing here? How did you get in here?" Vaughn quickly said.

"Shut up, Vaughn. And tell your dad to get some new locks here, I can still get in this house with my old key." Kelly said.

"Uh…" Vaughn said. "This really isn't a good time right now for you to be here, you can come by some other time though."

"Where's Victor!" Kelly said rudely.

"My dad isn't here right now." Vaughn said.

"Well, let me just tell you this!" Kelly walked up to Vaughn and put her face in front of his. "Stay away from my daughter!"

"Josie?" Vaughn asked.

"I heard your message." Kelly said.

"So… me and Josie are friends, what's wrong with me calling her? When did you start hating me anyways?" Vaughn asked.

"I don't know, maybe after you and your father started that new project!" Kelly said.

"How do you know about-?" Vaughn stated.

"What you, think your dad chose you to work with first. You were Plan B after I refused to work with Victor." Kelly said.

"Isn't the bad guy, Josie told you that!" Vaughn said.

"He may have not been the one trying to take over Time itself like my previous lover, but that doesn't mean he isn't bad." Kelly said. "I've known Victor before you were even born."

Suddenly Vaughn pulled out a nine-milliliter gun out of the back of his pants and pointed it at Kelly, "I think it's time for you to go."

Kelly grinned, "I see the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."

"Leave." Vaughn said gripping the gun tightly.

"I feel sorry for you mother. Sarah doesn't deserve that evil father of yours. Soon she'll figure out what kind of man he is." Kelly spoke.

Suddenly a noise blasted through the room and the pot of flowers behind her smashed. Victor had taught his son well. "Don't you ever talk about my mother! She's back, we're a family again, and you're not going to ruin that now leave!"

"Fine, Vaughn, but I'm warning you! Stay away from Josie, she doesn't need to get caught up in what your in!" Kelly said sternly as she stormed out the house without closing the door.

Lucas Randall sat in Professor's Zachary's old chair. His hair was a mess and he hadn't brushed his teeth in a week. He had been sleeping at the school, but he was awake most of the time studying, working. Lucas had been spending a month in a half non-stop trying rescue the clone Josie from the alternate universe. He admitted to himself that the reason he wanted to save the clone was because, the real Josie never liked him more than a friend and the clone and Lucas clicked. If he could save her he could actually have Josie! Well at least the clone version anyway.

He sat near, where the wormhole used to open. What was he doing? She was lost forever.

He drank some of the coffee that he had picked up. He took his glasses off and cleaned them. Lucas ran his hands through his hair. He was pathetic; he hadn't even gotten back with Stanford University. They wanted him there, but this summer he had been so occupied with black holes and alternate universes; he had no time to think about college.

Lucas walked over where he kept his old book bag on the floor; he looked in it, to get something to eat. He rampaged through there until he found a Snickers bar. As he picked it up, something caught his eye, it was the pendent. The one, Vaughn's mom had left for him. How did he get it?

"King of Darkness, hear our cries!" a female voice screeched.

"And we will honor you!" chanted other female voices. Seven girls surrounded a fire. They all had hooded cloaks on them; the hoods covered their faces.

"Lord of Fire here us!" the leader said.

"Here us. Here us. Here us." chanted the rest of the females.

The leader threw a type of powder in the fire, which made it turn purple. "We will do your deeds!"

"We'll honor you always." They chanted.

"This meeting is closed!" the leader said after a couple of minutes of waiting in silence.

Suddenly a light came on which revealed the room was actually a gymnasium. The girls rose from the floor, and took of their hoods. "Katherine, this isn't working." One of the girls said to the leader.

Katherine looked at the girl, "If you doubt, you will never be favored by The Almighty Lucifer."

"Maybe we should try something else. You know easier magic." The girl responded.

"Listen, it is Satan who gives us our power, so if you want to be a witch, we must honor the King of Darkness. Right, Corrine?" Katherine said.

"She's right, Allison." Corrine Baxter said.

"And we need to put all of our energy towards him." Katherine said.

"But my mom, is really worried, I mean, I'm suppose to be going to college in the fall and this thing I'm doing isn't going to please the Dean." Allison said.

"Allison, please, that's nothing. My boyfriend is THIS close to breaking up with me, because of you guys. But I have been trying to explain to him that you guys are important. And so is me practicing witchcraft." Corrine said thought of Marshall.

Josie went to the phone and pushed a button to hear the messages. After she heard a few for her mom, I came to Vaughn's.

"Hey Josie." Vaughn's voice came out of the phone. "Uh… this is kinda weird talking to you and all after two months, but I was wondering if you would want to hang out or something. Maybe you can come over to my dad's house. I have something to show you, that I promise would interest you. My dad also wants to see you, but I wont tell you why or what this thing is. It's a secret. Seeya when I seeya." The messaged ended.

"Secret?" Josie said to herself. "Nate, I'm leaving." She said rushing out of her home.

Review! More action is on its way. I will answer everyone's questions if you have them, and if you have ideas, or anything you would like to see happen just tell me. So… what are you waiting for, Review!
