Chapter twenty-two

Zoe

Once Nessie finished, the others looked both awed and horrified.

"They're going to kill you," Zair whispered.

"And probably us," Maya said. "We're not supposed to know about the super natural world."

"You're a part of it," I pointed out. "With the kairu powers."

"So they might not kill us. That isn't very reassuring," Boomer said.

"So, vampires can't create vampire children, but half vampires can happen as evidenced by…I'm not even going to try to pronounce your name, no offense. And these Voltori…" Zane started.

"Volturi," I corrected him.

"Yeah them. They haven't seen a child like her so they think she's an immortal and the punishment is death."

"The punishment for everything seems to be death," Bree said with a shrug.

"Sounds extreme," Maya commented. I nodded in agreement.

"So what do you need us to do?" Ky asked.

"What?" I asked. Zane and Ky turned to each other, and had some sort of silent conversation.

"Zoe, do you honestly think we're just going to ditch you to be killed?" Zane asked.

"I'm technically dead now," I answered. Zane facepalmed.

"Look, you need all the help you can get. Team Radikor will help you." Zane declared.

"And so will team Stax," Agreed Ky. "Plus we could probably get Boadaii to help."

"There's no way in hell the Hiverax are going to help and I don't know about Lokar, but team Impeariaz could probably lend a hand," Zane thought out loud.

"Sounds good," I said. I slid my phone from my pocket.

"Know how to use this?" I asked.

"More or less. What do you want me to do with it?" Zane asked.

"Text me. I'll get it on my ipad." I programmed a conversation with my personal number onto the phone and handed it to him.

"You ready?" Zane asked Ky. Ky nodded.

"Let's go to war."
