Chapter Two

Ok guys I'm back thanks so much for the feedback I'm working really hard to make sure its perfect and enjoyable to read. Also this story will be changing POVs I hope that doesn't bother anyone. I would also like you to thank you for your patience I had some things come up and I put this on the back burner but I should update regularly now.

"Bo du…." I turn just in time to see the last assassin heading towards me I move out of the way letting the two impale each. Once I realize they aren't a threat I find Lauren face down on the ground rushing towards her I'm slightly relieved to see her chest rising and falling.

"Come on Lauren I need you to wake up I don't know if I can carry you to the car. I turn her over gently slapping her cheek it takes a few moments but finally her eyes start to flutter open and a small moan escaped her lips.

"Bo … what happened? .. Are you ok ?"

" Am I ok… Lauren you were the one knocked out… Do you remember anything.. anything at all?" She gingerly reached up to her neck.

"There was a sharp pain that's it" pulling her hair back I see a mark but it's gone before I blink.

"Uhhh ….. Did you do that?"

" Do what?'

" You just healed yourself I thought you were human now?"

" Its probably just some after effects …either way I'll take it."

"Either way we need to get you to the Dal think you can walk if I help you?" I give her my hand I watch as she takes a deep breath and steals herself only a small groan is heard as we head out.

Somewhere across town.

"Is your task complete?" The shadowy figure kneeling in front of me nodded his head

" Good then it won't be long until your debt to me will be repayed. The figure bowed his head and left quietly. I can't help the shiver of excitement that rolls through my body that bitch was going to learn her lesson.

The Dal

"Give it to me you cheeky little bitch" I watch Kenzi and Vex and fight over a beauty product and snicker into my beer.

" I swear can you guys act any younger?"

" Shut your mouth dog breathe my eyeliner will not go to this this thief." I laugh as I watch Kenzi pounce on Vex and they turn into a pile of limbs. All of a sudden a there was a loud crash that brought us all to our feet facing the door in a ready stance. Bo came crashing in carrying a semi- conscious Lauren in her arms.

"Someone help me" I run over taking her in my arms

"what hap.. ?"

" No, Not up here down stairs before we say something" Bo interrupted we all walked down stairs Lauren still quietly in my arm.

Kenzi stayed upstairs making sure everyone left and locking the Dal up.

"Alright" dyson sighed

"From the beginning what happened?"

' Well we were at the lab and Lauren had taken the last bit of her medications and is now officially human she had a dizzy moment but it disappeared. We decide to celebrate but when we wet to leave that's when we were met with our friends they were waiting outside for us. They were damn good fighters I'm not sure who the wanted they wouldn't talk and I couldn't see their faces. I was fighting and didn't notice the last one had snuck around me Lauren yelled to warn me but she was laying unconscious with a wound in her neck and I'm not sure how but she healed herself … no chi nothing just bam gone I watched it wit my own eyes" I walk over and sit next to Lauren taking her warm hand in mine.

" so that's where were at she's so out of it dyson I don't know what's going on"

" well just be there lay with her have you tried given her your chi?"

" oh man why didn't I think of that.. Lauren honey" opening her eyes tiredly she looks up at me.

" I'm going to give you some chi …. Here sit up" she nodded and with some difficulty pushed herself up. I lean over giving her a soft kiss an I feel the familiar buzz of part of myself leaving me. When I decided she had enough I pull and see all the color returned to her face and she looked better.

" why didn't we think of that before" Lauren laughed

" I'm still a little tired do you mind if I nap?"

" no please I'm going to stay here and lay with you dyson and kenzi are going to do research and Vex is going to some of his people to snoop" she nodded quietly and snuggled into me. I sighed this was going to be a long night.
