Chapter 7
Isabelle was asleep in her cot but she still had her mind working overtime to try and remember everything that had happened to make her be here in this form.
Fred had said to Angel that she was so sorry. Angel had just said he couldn't believe it.
The look on his face when he saw what Jasmine really looked like was a mix of sadness and shock. Fred had been scared too but that was before because she had felt so alone and being cut off from those she cared about most.
Jasmine looked shocked that Fred had managed to break Angel out of the spell she had put on all of Los Angeles. "Angel." She had said to him. But she saw that he was gone from her control.
Fred had shot Jasmine twice more before Conner knocked her out by pushing her behind the counter. Angel had approached Fred but Conner threw Angel into a bookshelf and it had fallen on him then thrown him behind the same counter.
Angel had managed to get Fred out of the building. The next thing she knew she woke up in an alley. She had talked to Angel about everything that had gone on and how she had felt when everyone had tried to hurt her.
Angel at least had the decency to look guilty as he had been one of those people who had been hunting Fred down.
When they had heard voices coming towards them Fred had kissed Angel to make the people who were coming towards them think that they were just a couple making out.
They both thought it had worked but they had to fight the Jasmaniacs off and get away from them as fast as possible.
They ended up somewhere like an old abandoned hotel. It wasn't far away from The Hyperion but it was not the kind of place that people would come looking for them.
"Why have we come here?" Fred said to him as she saw the place. The place was a disaster zone. It didn't look very safe at all.
"Because this place is too close and Jasmine will think we're too stupid to come here." Angel said to Fred and sat down on a run down chair. "We have to give it some time before we go back to the hotel and put the plan into motion.

Isabelle was watching over Fred and Angel all the time. She knew that she couldn't sit there anymore because of everything that had gone. It was time for some action. She saw Fred and knew that this woman was her only chance to stop Jasmine before things got even more out of hand than they already had.
The others wouldn't appreciate her doing this but they weren't willing to do much. So she just closed her eyes and forced the events to start into place so that she could begin her ascent to earth. She had to do something and she was willing to do anything to stop Jasmine.
It was simply now a matter of time before it started.

Fred and Angel had been waiting for a few minutes and both felt like they had to do something as well. They were both processing a plan on what to do. They weren't aware that others things had begun to happen as well.
"Fred do you feel that?" Angel said as he felt some kind of presence in the room. It didn't disappear, it just kept growing.
"What is it?" Fred said as the air began to feel thick like something was blocking the air.
It was becoming difficult to breath for Fred. She must have blacked out because she couldn't feel anything for a while after that.
