Chapter 3: HER and the power surge

SHE POV

I looked in the mirror as I applied a dark shade of lipstick on my lips. I had on my favorite black long dress that went all the way down to the connection of the leg and foot. My medium-sized black was curly and it complemented my cold, jaded eyes.

Why am I dressing up, you might ask? Well it's a simple question. It's my 28th birthday, and I.m going to make it special. How? that's another easy question. The number one birthday activity is hunting, and the two things that are on the top of my list is Lily and Daniel.

There was a knock on my door. "What is it", I said annoyed that I was interrupted? One of THEM walked in. "Sorry for the disturbance, Kristine, but the Demanus people are wondering when we are going to attack. They have become very restless, and..."

I slammed down my blush container. "When did your people get to tell me what to do", I demanded from him? He bowed down and quivered in fear from my sudden outburst. "I'm so sorry", he said. "Yeah, you are sorry", I mocked. We will attack soon. Very soon. Now go tell THEM to get ready."Yes Kristine, right away."

I watched as he left. After this Daniel and Lily won't make it out alive. That power will be mine to use. And no one can stop me.

Daniel POV

I was sitting in the Lair by myself, fiddling with my black lion pin. I had too many things on my mind and wanted to be alone. My thoughts kept on replaying over and over again. It sent chills down my spine thinking about THEM, and what they did to me. And knowing that THEY're out there somewhere didn't help either. THEY'll be back I just know it. SHE will back. Kristine.

"I don't like it", I whispered. A surge of pain shot through my body, making me gasp. Then another wave hit me, bringing tears to my eyes. This power, this stupid power was getting on my nerves! The pain it brings hurts, and I want it gone! But it could never happen. As long as Lily is alive, I have to deal with this pain. "No matter how much it hurts". I said aloud. "What hurts" said a voice behind me? I turned around and saw Vince. "Nothing", I said quickly.

He raised an eyebrow. I could tell that he didn't believe me. "Are you sure", he asked? "Yeah."

"Daniel", he said using our telepathic link.

"Dude, I said I'm fine."

Sometimes I hated that mind link with Vince. It made me easier to read. He could read my thoughts and feelings within seconds and have me all figured out. I could do that to him to, but I haven't really thought about it untill now. Huh. I might try it later, but still, right now it would be bad if he could hear my thoughts about THEM. That would not be good at all.

Vince gave me a 'well talk about this later' look, but dropped it. "Okay then", he said slowly. "So, Pidge and Hunk wants us and Larmina to help them tinker with the lions, Think you're up for it?' "Sure" I said shrugging. "Upgrading and listening to Pidge talk science. It's going to be loads of fun." "Hey", said Vince. "It's not that bad you know? If only you would pay attention for once in your life." "Yeah", I agreed. "If I pay attention. Though I really don't think I will."

He chuckled smirking. "And that my friend, is why Keith and Lance keep on giving you lectures. You don't listen." "Well then", I said raising my hand up just a little bit. "I'll make a vow. When Lance and Keith stop arguing, I will start to pay attention." "You do know that, that is almost impossible", he replied? "Yes. That's why I vowed to that one, because it will never happen." Vince shook his head at me, as a devilish smile plastered itself on my face. "You are the master of the obvious", he said. "I know."

Vince's voltcom lit up. "Vince", came Pidge's voice. "It's time to meet me in the hanger. Did you get Daniel yet?" "Yeah", Vince responded. "Good. Larmina's already here. Be here in three minutes."

When they hung up, I sighed. Now I have to listen to boring stuff for the next hour or two. "Time to go", said Vince pointing to the exit with his thumb. "Alright", I said standing up, as another pain wave hit me. I grunted rubbing my chest.

"Daniel, what's wrong", asked Vince coming to my side? "It's nothing", I said pulling away from him. "Let's just go." He watched me as I walked past him. "Well, are you coming or not?" Without a word he started to follow me.

I could tell from the feeling in my gut, that something bad was happening. The recent power surges only screamed trouble. But what was happening to me? The thoughts were normal, but the pain was never that bad untill now. Then my mind trailed on to HER. The thought scared me.

Shaking my head to clear my thoughts, I decided it was nothing. But the pain inside of me told me that I'll regret my decision later.

What do think? Fantastic right? Well, I hope it was, because more reviews would be nice.
