Disclaimer- don't own seaQuest and some borrowed information was gotten from the
movie THE CRAFT and the real coven out here in my town….
Personal note- I really am starting to dislike this story more and more but I started it so I
guess I have to finish it. Ok, Narnia Princess that asked about the word Fucken… well, it
is sort of slang for some people out here. Instead of Fucking… it was shorten to Fuckin'
but than that is used a lot to describe sex so fucken means the bad term…weird me but I
hope that explains it… Oh, to the other reviewer- I never did mention the group was
satanic… I said they were just against God. That doesn't mean they are satanic.
again, sorry for the english, no beta here. just me and my bad english... but I am trying..
The Broken Coven.
By the Untalented JOxER.
Chapter two.
Two days later, MR-7 was docking in the Florida coast. Nathan, Kristen, and Lucas
came out of the shuttle and unloaded their luggage. It was a perfect Friday afternoon and
the sunset was killer. Lucas reached for his stuff and waited with the others for a cab.
Nathan had checked out three rooms in a near by hotel and invited the Doctor at the last
minute. The cab arrived and soon, they were checking into the hotel near the beach.
Lucas was already walking towards the elevator when Nathan yelled for him
"Yeah?" Lucas answered.
"Do you want to eat something before we head to the rooms?"
"I am a bit tired captain. I think I will go rest." Lucas said as he began to follow the
bellhop and their luggage to the elevator.
"Ok Lucas, but we will be at the restaurant." Nathan said as he took Kristen by the arm
and headed towards the restaurant inside the hotel. Lucas looked back at the couple as
they headed towards the restaurant. Lucas had wished that they would bug him to join
them but it seem that he was not that important to have along. Lucas followed the
bellhop to the rooms and gave the bellhop a nice tip of -going to hell. Lucas opened up
his backpack and pulled out his personal laptop computer. He hooked it up and in
minutes was online, back at the Coven.
=Hey there Jacob.= Damien typed.
=Hey. I don't think this is going to work.= Lucas typed.
=You are not backing down from me are you?=
=No, it is that I just don't think my dad is going to believe me.=
=He will, plus, if you need a diversion.=
=No, that will not be necessary. I will try to make it tomorrow.=
=Before I forget, I have to introduce you to Kat, she's East.=
=Hello Jacob, nice to have you here. Joining us are you?= Kat typed.
=Kat, I might. East?=
=Don't say a word Kat, if he wants to know, he will come here and find out for himself.=
Damien replied.
=LOL. Fucker, that is mean.=
=Jacob Jacob, how else you are going to learn without diggin in for the info yourself!=
=Fine, look, I have to leave, be nice to Kat.= Damien said as he exited the room. The
two continued to talk for about two hours. Plenty of time for Damien to do his own
planning. If Damien could access where Jacob was, he can call a little diversion for his
friend to ditch his father. Damien knew all too well how controlling a parent can be and
at any age their children are, they will always have control. Damien had exited the room
and had hack into Lucas computer. He traced the phone line and got a number of a hotel
near Butler Beach. He narrowed down his search and found the hotel room number.
Damien quickly accessed the hotels database and found out who was in room 122.
Damien opened the channels and found that there were other rooms checked by a Nathan
Bridger. Jacob's old man. Damien thought as he began to find out facts about Nathan
Bridger. Damien was shock to see that he ended up staring at a UEO personal file.
UEO! Jacob never mentioned his father working for the UEO. Damien quickly accessed
information on any Jacob Bridger but found nothing. Damien was puzzled. Jacob was
surely in the hotel and the room was checked by a UEO personal. Damien went back and
searched Nathan's files again. He searched for any family and was shocked to see that he
did have a son but that son was pronounced dead after the sub sank. Damien was
growing mad, someone lied to him. One thing Damien hated was someone lying to him.
Damien quickly went back to Lucas' computer line and tried to open some files the
computer drive had saved. Damien stumbled on a document that read- Journal. It had to
be Jacob's journal. Damien opened it up and began to download the whole 200 pages
onto his computer. After what seemed forever, the downloading was complete and
Damien quickly shut down the internex and began to read the Journal.
With each line, Damien grew madder and madder. Someone had been lying to him all
this time. He had read the most recent entries and found out that the teen' name was not
Jacob but Lucas. It had every single detail on the conversations Damien and the gang
had with 'Jacob' and how he was going to meet them. Damien saved the journal and
once again, logged back on to the internex. Damien relied to each and began to search
the web again. This time, any information on a Lucas in the UEO. Damien was
surprised to find out allot of interesting facts on the teen. Not only did Lucas Wolenczak
worked for the UEO as chief computer analysis- he was only 16. To add to the facts, he
had graduated from Stanford and got his masters in Artificial intelligence. He logged
into his email and began to write to the people in the Coven. He explained to each one
who was this Jacob character and how he should be taught a lesson. He wrote to the East,
West and south to join him at the RAGE to infact, teach the teen a lesson. He told them
all to keep playing the little game with the so call Jacob. With in seconds of him sending
the message, he got messages from the three. East was still talking to Jacob and wanted
to play with the teen too. West had sent a simple message that he was going to be there
and South added that she would bring the snacks. . Damien grinned as he shut down his
computer. This was one game that Damien was going to enjoy every much. Damien
went to his shelf and pulled out his book of shadows. "Time to play." Damien said as he
opened the book and began to read.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-**--*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Nathan and Kristen entered the room only to find Lucas on the computer working on god
knows what project. Kristen shook her head as the two entered the room. Lucas was
startled and quickly shut the link to the chat room and opened up an old program he had
completed months ago.
"I thought you were going to get some sleep" Nathan said as he sat down in a chair near
Lucas.
"I was but when I got here, I wasn't sleepy anymore."
"You better rest now, it is 12 am."
"It is?" Lucas glanced at his computer watch and Nathan was right, it was 12 am. He
couldn't believe that the whole night was gone just chatting away with Kat. "I guess
working on this programmed..."
"Understand, but can you save your work and get some sleep. I want to take you out
tomorrow." Nathan said.
"Where"
"Somewhere special."
"But.."
"No buts, just be ready at 8 am sharp. And bring you walking shoes; tomorrow is just for
you Lucas. All day!" Lucas was about to argue with the captain but he knew he couldn't
win; the captain was at the same level of stubborn ness as Lucas was. Maybe more.
"Alright. Good night." Lucas said as he went to the restroom to change. He didn't
expect the Captain to be around him all day; his plan on meeting a friend alone was going
down fast.
Lucas thought of another plan but couldn't think of one… he was going to ask Damien
for help. Lucas went quietly out of the bathroom and checked on the Captain and
Kristen. Sure enough the two were sitting out side in the balcony, chatting away like to
love birds. Lucas saw his laptop near the sliding door that lead to balcony. Lucas took a
deep breath and went to his laptop. Lucas quickly opened the net and was happy that
Kat, Jezzie, Ayne and Damien were online.
=I cant talk for long, I was wondering if your help is still being offered?= Lucas typed.
=Anytime Jacob, what's on your fucken mind?= Damien said.
=I am going to spend the rest of the day with my dad, he said all day! I was wondering if
someone could meet me where dad is going to take me and then I can go with one of
you?= Lucas typed, what was he doing! He was going to a strange place with total
strangers. But these people felt more like family; there was no doubt in Lucas mind that
these people were just average young adults struggling with life.
=Yeah. Sure. I will meet you= Damien typed
=Damien, he don't want you, I think I should go and meet Jacob.= Ayne typed
=What fucken right you have Ayne?=
=First Damien, I am a chick or so you haven't notice… It is more believable for a girl to
come up to Jacob and for him to say I was an old girl friend in college. Or just a good
friend that he wants to spend time with. Besides, one look at you, he will start running
away. One look at me, he will be running towards me!=
=Very funny girl, whatever Jacob what.=
=I like Ayne's idea.= Lucas replied.
=Great Jacob, where do you want me to meet you?=Ayne typed.
=I don't know what my dad has planed, maybe if I could call you when I am there.=
=Where are you right now?=
=Near Butler Beach=
=Ok, I will go around there and wait for your call, my cell phone number is 926-4654.=
=Thanks a lot Ayne.= Lucas typed as he memorized the number
=Thank you, now I am going to have a hot date for the RAGE!=
=Shut up!=Damien typed.
=Mak..= Was all Lucas got when someone came over and shut his laptop screen down.
Lucas looked up to see an angry looking Kristen with her hand on the closed laptop.
"I though you were going to bed?"
"So did I!"
"Go now!"
"Fine." Lucas stood up and headed towards his room. He quickly stopped as he made his
way back to get his laptop. Kristen took hold of the device first and took it with her
outside. Lucas frowned but turned around and went to his room. Lucas smiled as he
closed the door, he didn't need his computer anymore, he knew Ayne's number by heart.
Nathan waited for Kristen to come back outside, it was such a lovely night and Kristen
was missing out on the sight. Kristen came out with Lucas' laptop and set it down on a
chair. Kristen made her way to Nathan and let her be embraced by Nathan strong arms.
"Is he asleep?" Nathan said softly
"I think he is now. I took his toy away." Kristen said, referring to the laptop.
"You think he will be surprised?" Nathan asked
"Yeah. He deserves a little fun, a party just for him at the hotel hall is a perfect idea."
"I think I can handle getting him out of the hotel for a couple of hours. I don't know
what do to do after we go to the mall and buy him some new clothes…"
"Well whatever you do, make sure you don't get back here by 6pm! It wont be a surprise
if everything is not ready for him."
"I will try… by the end of the day, I am going to be flat broke!"
"Your idea!"
"Half true- it is Ben's idea. I think I wil take half the expeneses off his pay."
Kristen elbowed Nathan on the chest as she hugged him tighter. It was really a wonderful night.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-**--***--*-*
Early the next morning, Nathan and Lucas went around walking the endless mall. Lucas
was enjoying the Captains company. It wasn't everyday that Lucas would get five new
pair of jeans and a huge banana split and a chocolate milk shake for breakfast. It was
almost lunchtime and Lucas had returned from unloading the stuff into Bridger's rented
car trunk. It was lunch time and the two entered a nice restaurant for lunch.
"What do you want Lucas?" Nathan asked the teen.
"I am not really hungry sir."
"Sure you're not! It has been five hours since we have eaten a meal"
"I did eat!"
"Junk food is not food."
"Fine fine fine, the lobster sounds good" Lucas joked.
"Hey, I am going to make you eat but not eat like a king!"
"You asked!"
"I set the limit!"
"Fine, just get me a club sandwich."
"Ok, I will be right back" Nathan said as he went to place his order. Nathan had seen a
great change in Lucas behavior- it seemed like the kid is acting like his old self. Nathan
looked back at the teen; Lucas was looking out the window and watching the other
people walk by. There was something troubling him though, Nathan thought as he
simple shook it off and moved ahead to order the meals.
Lucas was no sure if going to RAGE was a good idea. It seemed it was a great idea at the
time but he was mad at the time too. People seem to make big mistakes and bad
decisions when they are mad. But Lucas had promised his friends that he was going to
go. If he can only distract the captain to stay here until 5 pm, maybe there was a chance
for Damien's plan to work. If he couldn't, he would just simply apologized to his friends
and hope that they could forgive him. Lucas snapped back into reality as the captain
came back with the order number. He placed the number on the table and the two
continued to talk. 'It was just like in the ship' Lucas thought, the captain usually stopped
on by just to talk. Lucas was surprised that the captain had remembered some of their
conversations since the captain had told Lucas that he heard this story before. Lucas
laughed but then the bad side of his brain took over. 'What if this was what Damien was
talking about, the captain could just be nice to me just to keep me in his favor. What if he
really is trying to buy me off... No one would spend this kind of cash on a total stranger.'
Lucas thought but simply answered the captain that nothing was wrong when he was
asked. The two finished their meals and went back to the shopping spree. Lucas had
seen a video arcade and dragged Nathan with him. There was a really great video game
built for two players and Lucas pleaded with the Captain to join him. With in 2 seconds
of the game, Lucas had beaten the captain. Lucas cheered and played this time against
the computer. At the end, the computer won and also won Nathan's wallet of 10 dollars.
After the arcade, the two saw a show opening, Burning Souls 2 and Lucas was thrilled to
see it. After what seemed two boring hours for the captain, the movie had no plot – it
was just another scary teen movie. The lame movie ended and Nathan saw his watch, it
was almost 5pm. He still had to keep the teen buys for 2 more hours. They had seen
almost every store and Lucas declined the offer of seeing another movie. They both went
and sat on a bench near a store.
"Captain, why are you doing this?" Lucas finally asked. He had never paid attention to
the movie after he saw the captain's reaction in the first half hour. The captain had not
like the movie at all and there must have been a good reason that he was sticking up for
it. Lucas had thought why would the captain see that movie if he didn't like it, or the
Captain just to spend time with Lucas but maybe keeping him away from something....
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, it is great that we are spending a good time together, I am very grateful and all
but why?"
"Do I have to have a reason?"
"Actually, yes. Half the places we went was because I dragged you into them and never
did you complained. Surely on seeing your reaction to the movie- you didn't want to be
there. Plus you are spending money like a maniac on me. There has to be a good reason
for this."
"I just feel terrible that I forgot your birthday..." Lucas had heard the first few words that
the Captain said- Damien was right, it was all just a plot to get him to behave. Lucas
tuned out the captain; he was going to put his plan into action.
"Captain, I have to go.." Lucas said as he began to stand up.
"Where?"
"The restroom" Lucas whispered as he began to leave.
"Oh, ok. I will meet you back at the Knick Knack store. I have to pick up something for
Kristen." Lucas nodded. 'Yeah captain, got to keep her in line as well.' Lucas thought as
he made his way to the public restroom. He turned back to see where was the captain and
he was nowhere in sight. 'Good' Lucas thought and turned to the other direction, to
where the phones were. Lucas quickly got out some change and connected his call to
Ayne's cell phone.
"Yeah? Ayne speaking" the voice from the receiver answered.
"Its me Ayne, Jacob."
"Oh, I thought you were going to let me drive around here forever! So where are you J?"
"I am at the mall"
"What a sport, thanks, now I will go search the whole 50 malls out here and look for
you."
Lucas laughed. "Sorry, I guess I should be more specific."
"Yeah, I think so too." Ayne laughed.
"I am at the Woodridge mall near St. Augustine."
"Great! I am here at Butler Beach, its not going to take long. What you look like and
where do I meet you?"
"Meet me by the Hot Topic. I am wearing jeans and a..." Lucas said as he looked at his
shirt. "Red, blue flannel with a white undershirt."
"Being patriotic are we? Good, be there in half an hour."
"Wait, how will I know it is you?"
"You will..." Ayne said before she hanged up the phone. Lucas looked up at the mall's
clock, it was 5:00. Lucas made his way to the Knick Knack store and found the Captain
buying a nice small porcelain figure for the doctor.
"Hey Lucas, what do you think?" Nathan asked the teen as he held up the little figurine.
"Great. She will love it." Lucas said as he looked at his watch, 5:25. "Do you think we
can get an Icee?" Lucas said to the captain, the icee stand was not too far from the hot
topic.
"I don't see why not." Nathan said as he signed his name to the credit card bill and lead
Lucas to the stand. "I remember these, when I was growing up, they only had two
flavors- cherry and blue berry. But they all tasted the same."
"Yeah but you are talking about the age where there was no technology at all." Lucas
joked. He looked at his watch again- 5:30. Lucas shook his watch, thinking it was dead
or something. Lucas asked the captain what time did he have and it was the same.
Nathan asked if his watch was ok but Lucas said it was. He just thought that is was 5:30
a while ago. Lucas and Nathan both sat down on another bench and began finished their
white cherry icee in silence. Lucas looked at his watch again, 5:40. Lucas stood up and
pretended to stretch. He caught a glimpse of the hot topic store and quickly searched
with his eyes for a red blue highlighted hair girl. Lucas faced the captain and asked if he
could go into the store. Nathan was too tired to join the teen and agreed to wait for the
teen at the bench. Lucas walked into the gothic store and pretended to be interested on
the shirts. They weren't bad but the prices were too high. Lucas looked at his watch
again, it was now 5:50 and Lucas was growing nerves on meeting Ayne. Lucas walked
passed the shirts and now staring at some tight leather leopard pants. Lucas laughed as
he got a pair off the hanger and faced the mirror near the wall. He placed the pants over
his own and looked at the mirrors reflection. Lucas laughed as he thought about sitting
down and ripping them as he sat down, when someone can behind him and covered his
eyes.
"Guess who J?"
"Ayne?" Lucas questioned.
"They look good on you" Ayne said as Lucas kept holding the pants. Ayne let go and
Lucas turned around to face her. Lucas was taken back by Ayne's appearance. She was
dressed in a small dark dress with laces tied to the side. She wore dark lipstick, some
black half boots and by the looks of it, she was fit. Ayne in the other hand looked up and
down at 'Jacob'. Ayne went around him and whistled.
"Your not that bad... we could lose the innocence boy look and get you into a leather
jacket and some boots."
"No thanks. You on the other hand seems that you belong in this store."
"Gee thanks... now lets go." Ayne said as she began to pull him out of the store.
"Whoa.. Wait, I got to tell my dad."
"Oh come on J, he will not notice you are gone."
"Still...." Ayne complained as Lucas dragged her to meet the captain.
"Captain." Lucas yelled
"Why you call him captain?" Ayne questioned.
"Oh because if I yell dad, I will get all these dads out here looking at me... captain, I will
only get him..."
"Good thinking." Ayne said. 'Nice recovery Lucas.' She thought.
The captain turned his head and was surprise that Lucas was in company of a girl.
"Captain, this is Ayne, a friend from college! I haven't seen her in ages!" Lucas said as
the captain greeted her.
"Nice to meet you Ayne…"
"Ayne Laveaga. Nice to meet you too." Ayne said as he shook his hand.
"I was wondering if I could spend time alone with her.. that if it is ok with you...." Lucas
asked.
"Sure thing kiddo, I need to get back to the hotel anyways and get more credit cards...
Here." Nathan said, handing Lucas his only credit card. "Take it. Just in case." Nathan
said as he looked at his watch. 6:20. Perfect timing. This can give Nathan a chance to
get Lucas another birthday present and see how it is coming along at the hotel.
"Thanks!" Lucas said as he shoved the credit card in his pocket.
"Hey-ya J, I need a new pair of boots.."Ayne joked.
"Oh and did I mention that the charges on the card will be deducted from your salary?"
"No boots Ayne." Lucas laughed.
"Ok you two, go have fun. I will be here around 8 pm to pick you put ok kiddo?"
"Sure, thanks allot." Lucas said as the captain began to walk away. When the captain
was out of sight, Lucas let out the breath he had been holding what seemed forever.
"Though he wasn't going to let me go."
"Hey, if he didn't, I would have kicked his ass and drag you here with me! Come on,
let's go!" Ayne said as they both exited the mall. Ayne and Lucas walked into the
parking lot and Lucas was amazed when he came across a very expensive looking sports
car.
"This is yours?" Lucas asked as he drooled over the car.
"Yup! All mine, bought and paid for. I guess you can say I love good things..." Ayne
said as she opened the driver side door and hoped in. Lucas was still drooling over the
car when Ayne yelled him to get in already. Ayne entered the freeway and headed
towards Jacksonville.
"So where is the RAGE?"
"Jacksonville."
"Is everyone going to be there?"
"Yup! The whole Coven."
"What is that anyways...Coven."
"A name for a... a ...group that cant be broken. So tell me Jacob do you believe in faith?"
"huh?"
"I mean, it is faith that is making you come to us.. it was faith that made you open the
chat box, it was all faith..."
"I thought you guys don't believe in god."
"Faith has nothing to do with HIM. Faith can be either good or evil..."
"Well, if you put it that way, I say it is just plain luck."
"No one can be that lucky Jacob."
"But they can... I don't know, I have to see something in order to believe in it."
"We will prove that."
"Huh?"
"Nothing, I said that how would you prove that."
"I don't know, but time will tell. Do you have to drive this fast?" Lucas said as he read
that the car was doing 100 mps and not the limit, which was 80.
"I got this car for the speed, I am going to use it."
"Don't you worry that you are going to get caught?"
"If he wants it, he will give it to me." Ayne laughed, Lucas was totally confused by her
statement. 'He hasn't learned yet..' She thought. "The police I mean, he can try but I can
out run him" Ayne said as she pushed more on the accelerator.
-**-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Nathan walked into the hotel; he had some presents for Lucas and entered the hotel. He
was smiling when he saw the hotel hall- it was being filled with balloons and Kristen was
on a ladder trying to hang some happy birthday signs on the wall. Kristen turned to see
who had entered and almost lost her balance when she saw it was Nathan.
"What are you doing here!" Kristen said as she stepped down from the ladder, missing
every other step. "It is not ready yet! You couldn't keep Lucas away for another 2
hours!"
"Whoa, calm down, Lucas is in the mall, I came by myself."
"You left him at the mall!" from bad to worse.
"He meet an old friend there, a nice girl by the matter of fact and I let them catch up on
old times."
"Oh, you should have said so in the first place!" Kristen said as she went back to her job
on hanging the signs. Nathan would be forever lost in the area of understanding women.
He made his way to the ladder and held it for the doctor as she hanged the signs.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The two young adults reached the RAGE around 8 pm. Ayne had begged Lucas to
change clothes. Lucas didn't want to but Ayne didn't care for what he said, she drove to
a near by Club Ax-cess store and bought a whole new outfit for Lucas. Lucas still didn't
want to go and change but there was no way of talking Ayne out of it. Lucas exited the
store with a whole new look. He had his old clothes in a store bag and was shy of
stepping out of the car when they arrived at the club.
"Oh come out J, you look good!" Ayne said as she held open the passenger door.
"I look so stupid in this! How did I get you to talk me into this!"
"Because if you didn't change, you would probably have been jumped! Trust me J, you
looked like a momma's boy wearing flannel."
"Fine" Lucas said as he got out of the car. Ayne looked again at the teen, he had a great
body underneath all that baggy jeans.
"I told you the boots you picked out are terrible!"
"Well I never wore tight black plastic jeans before, so I am not an expert on matching!"
Lucas replied.
"Still, I think the plain boot you have are ugly! The ones that had fire tips on them were
so much better."
"But they didn't match my chain wallet. And I didn't think it went well with this jacket!
The jacket has too many zippers" Lucas joked.
"Funny! Come on, we are early but its ok." Ayne said as she pulled Lucas into the clubs
doors. Two big guys stepped in front of Lucas and didn't let him pass.
"What are you doing here BOY!" one of the men said.
"Leave him alone Allen, he is with me!" Ayne said to the big man.
"Ayne, picking them from the streets today?"
"Fuck off, he's a friend."
"Let me see some id." The other man said to Lucas. Lucas began to panic, they were
going to find out he was not 18. Lucas nerves less answered that he forgot his wallet.
"Sure kid, I think we show throw him back!"
"Here!" Ayne said as she handed Allen a 50-dollar bill.
"Fine, go ahead and have a blast." Allen said. Ayne thanked Allen and placed her arm
around Lucas shoulder.
"Don't let them scare ya, you're with me!" Ayne said as she lead them to a group of
people huddled in a corner table. "Hey everyone!" Ayne yelled to the group. "I brought
Jacob." The whole group turned to see Ayne and then set their eyes on Lucas. Four of
the girls went near Lucas and began to flirt with him.
"Hiya Jacob, have you ever played a game that involves a pole and me?" a girl in a
skimpy outfit asked the teen. Ayne went around and pushed the girl away.
"Back off Jezzie, he's with me."
"How about we share Ayne?"
"I don't think so Kat, this guy is all mine." Ayne said. Lucas began to blush as he thought
that these girls were fighting over him.
"Ladies!" A young man pushed his way into the circle center of women that surrounded
the teen. Lucas turned to the approaching man; the sight of him made Lucas wanted to
run. He was dressed all in black and had some heavy chains around his neck. He had a
collar of spikes and some bracelets to match. He had a long tattoo that ran from his left
eye down to his neck, it was a black and yellow snake. Lucas then looked down at his
outfit, except for the bracelets and tattoos; he seemed to look exactly as the man. The
young man approached Lucas and pulled out his hand. "Finally we meet Jacob. I'm
Damien." Damien said as the group gathered behind Damien. 'He seems to be the
leader' Lucas thought. Lucas took out his hand and shook Damien's.
"Great pleasure Damien." Lucas answered back.
movie THE CRAFT and the real coven out here in my town….
Personal note- I really am starting to dislike this story more and more but I started it so I
guess I have to finish it. Ok, Narnia Princess that asked about the word Fucken… well, it
is sort of slang for some people out here. Instead of Fucking… it was shorten to Fuckin'
but than that is used a lot to describe sex so fucken means the bad term…weird me but I
hope that explains it… Oh, to the other reviewer- I never did mention the group was
satanic… I said they were just against God. That doesn't mean they are satanic.
again, sorry for the english, no beta here. just me and my bad english... but I am trying..
The Broken Coven.
By the Untalented JOxER.
Chapter two.
Two days later, MR-7 was docking in the Florida coast. Nathan, Kristen, and Lucas
came out of the shuttle and unloaded their luggage. It was a perfect Friday afternoon and
the sunset was killer. Lucas reached for his stuff and waited with the others for a cab.
Nathan had checked out three rooms in a near by hotel and invited the Doctor at the last
minute. The cab arrived and soon, they were checking into the hotel near the beach.
Lucas was already walking towards the elevator when Nathan yelled for him
"Yeah?" Lucas answered.
"Do you want to eat something before we head to the rooms?"
"I am a bit tired captain. I think I will go rest." Lucas said as he began to follow the
bellhop and their luggage to the elevator.
"Ok Lucas, but we will be at the restaurant." Nathan said as he took Kristen by the arm
and headed towards the restaurant inside the hotel. Lucas looked back at the couple as
they headed towards the restaurant. Lucas had wished that they would bug him to join
them but it seem that he was not that important to have along. Lucas followed the
bellhop to the rooms and gave the bellhop a nice tip of -going to hell. Lucas opened up
his backpack and pulled out his personal laptop computer. He hooked it up and in
minutes was online, back at the Coven.
=Hey there Jacob.= Damien typed.
=Hey. I don't think this is going to work.= Lucas typed.
=You are not backing down from me are you?=
=No, it is that I just don't think my dad is going to believe me.=
=He will, plus, if you need a diversion.=
=No, that will not be necessary. I will try to make it tomorrow.=
=Before I forget, I have to introduce you to Kat, she's East.=
=Hello Jacob, nice to have you here. Joining us are you?= Kat typed.
=Kat, I might. East?=
=Don't say a word Kat, if he wants to know, he will come here and find out for himself.=
Damien replied.
=LOL. Fucker, that is mean.=
=Jacob Jacob, how else you are going to learn without diggin in for the info yourself!=
=Fine, look, I have to leave, be nice to Kat.= Damien said as he exited the room. The
two continued to talk for about two hours. Plenty of time for Damien to do his own
planning. If Damien could access where Jacob was, he can call a little diversion for his
friend to ditch his father. Damien knew all too well how controlling a parent can be and
at any age their children are, they will always have control. Damien had exited the room
and had hack into Lucas computer. He traced the phone line and got a number of a hotel
near Butler Beach. He narrowed down his search and found the hotel room number.
Damien quickly accessed the hotels database and found out who was in room 122.
Damien opened the channels and found that there were other rooms checked by a Nathan
Bridger. Jacob's old man. Damien thought as he began to find out facts about Nathan
Bridger. Damien was shock to see that he ended up staring at a UEO personal file.
UEO! Jacob never mentioned his father working for the UEO. Damien quickly accessed
information on any Jacob Bridger but found nothing. Damien was puzzled. Jacob was
surely in the hotel and the room was checked by a UEO personal. Damien went back and
searched Nathan's files again. He searched for any family and was shocked to see that he
did have a son but that son was pronounced dead after the sub sank. Damien was
growing mad, someone lied to him. One thing Damien hated was someone lying to him.
Damien quickly went back to Lucas' computer line and tried to open some files the
computer drive had saved. Damien stumbled on a document that read- Journal. It had to
be Jacob's journal. Damien opened it up and began to download the whole 200 pages
onto his computer. After what seemed forever, the downloading was complete and
Damien quickly shut down the internex and began to read the Journal.
With each line, Damien grew madder and madder. Someone had been lying to him all
this time. He had read the most recent entries and found out that the teen' name was not
Jacob but Lucas. It had every single detail on the conversations Damien and the gang
had with 'Jacob' and how he was going to meet them. Damien saved the journal and
once again, logged back on to the internex. Damien relied to each and began to search
the web again. This time, any information on a Lucas in the UEO. Damien was
surprised to find out allot of interesting facts on the teen. Not only did Lucas Wolenczak
worked for the UEO as chief computer analysis- he was only 16. To add to the facts, he
had graduated from Stanford and got his masters in Artificial intelligence. He logged
into his email and began to write to the people in the Coven. He explained to each one
who was this Jacob character and how he should be taught a lesson. He wrote to the East,
West and south to join him at the RAGE to infact, teach the teen a lesson. He told them
all to keep playing the little game with the so call Jacob. With in seconds of him sending
the message, he got messages from the three. East was still talking to Jacob and wanted
to play with the teen too. West had sent a simple message that he was going to be there
and South added that she would bring the snacks. . Damien grinned as he shut down his
computer. This was one game that Damien was going to enjoy every much. Damien
went to his shelf and pulled out his book of shadows. "Time to play." Damien said as he
opened the book and began to read.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-**--*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Nathan and Kristen entered the room only to find Lucas on the computer working on god
knows what project. Kristen shook her head as the two entered the room. Lucas was
startled and quickly shut the link to the chat room and opened up an old program he had
completed months ago.
"I thought you were going to get some sleep" Nathan said as he sat down in a chair near
Lucas.
"I was but when I got here, I wasn't sleepy anymore."
"You better rest now, it is 12 am."
"It is?" Lucas glanced at his computer watch and Nathan was right, it was 12 am. He
couldn't believe that the whole night was gone just chatting away with Kat. "I guess
working on this programmed..."
"Understand, but can you save your work and get some sleep. I want to take you out
tomorrow." Nathan said.
"Where"
"Somewhere special."
"But.."
"No buts, just be ready at 8 am sharp. And bring you walking shoes; tomorrow is just for
you Lucas. All day!" Lucas was about to argue with the captain but he knew he couldn't
win; the captain was at the same level of stubborn ness as Lucas was. Maybe more.
"Alright. Good night." Lucas said as he went to the restroom to change. He didn't
expect the Captain to be around him all day; his plan on meeting a friend alone was going
down fast.
Lucas thought of another plan but couldn't think of one… he was going to ask Damien
for help. Lucas went quietly out of the bathroom and checked on the Captain and
Kristen. Sure enough the two were sitting out side in the balcony, chatting away like to
love birds. Lucas saw his laptop near the sliding door that lead to balcony. Lucas took a
deep breath and went to his laptop. Lucas quickly opened the net and was happy that
Kat, Jezzie, Ayne and Damien were online.
=I cant talk for long, I was wondering if your help is still being offered?= Lucas typed.
=Anytime Jacob, what's on your fucken mind?= Damien said.
=I am going to spend the rest of the day with my dad, he said all day! I was wondering if
someone could meet me where dad is going to take me and then I can go with one of
you?= Lucas typed, what was he doing! He was going to a strange place with total
strangers. But these people felt more like family; there was no doubt in Lucas mind that
these people were just average young adults struggling with life.
=Yeah. Sure. I will meet you= Damien typed
=Damien, he don't want you, I think I should go and meet Jacob.= Ayne typed
=What fucken right you have Ayne?=
=First Damien, I am a chick or so you haven't notice… It is more believable for a girl to
come up to Jacob and for him to say I was an old girl friend in college. Or just a good
friend that he wants to spend time with. Besides, one look at you, he will start running
away. One look at me, he will be running towards me!=
=Very funny girl, whatever Jacob what.=
=I like Ayne's idea.= Lucas replied.
=Great Jacob, where do you want me to meet you?=Ayne typed.
=I don't know what my dad has planed, maybe if I could call you when I am there.=
=Where are you right now?=
=Near Butler Beach=
=Ok, I will go around there and wait for your call, my cell phone number is 926-4654.=
=Thanks a lot Ayne.= Lucas typed as he memorized the number
=Thank you, now I am going to have a hot date for the RAGE!=
=Shut up!=Damien typed.
=Mak..= Was all Lucas got when someone came over and shut his laptop screen down.
Lucas looked up to see an angry looking Kristen with her hand on the closed laptop.
"I though you were going to bed?"
"So did I!"
"Go now!"
"Fine." Lucas stood up and headed towards his room. He quickly stopped as he made his
way back to get his laptop. Kristen took hold of the device first and took it with her
outside. Lucas frowned but turned around and went to his room. Lucas smiled as he
closed the door, he didn't need his computer anymore, he knew Ayne's number by heart.
Nathan waited for Kristen to come back outside, it was such a lovely night and Kristen
was missing out on the sight. Kristen came out with Lucas' laptop and set it down on a
chair. Kristen made her way to Nathan and let her be embraced by Nathan strong arms.
"Is he asleep?" Nathan said softly
"I think he is now. I took his toy away." Kristen said, referring to the laptop.
"You think he will be surprised?" Nathan asked
"Yeah. He deserves a little fun, a party just for him at the hotel hall is a perfect idea."
"I think I can handle getting him out of the hotel for a couple of hours. I don't know
what do to do after we go to the mall and buy him some new clothes…"
"Well whatever you do, make sure you don't get back here by 6pm! It wont be a surprise
if everything is not ready for him."
"I will try… by the end of the day, I am going to be flat broke!"
"Your idea!"
"Half true- it is Ben's idea. I think I wil take half the expeneses off his pay."
Kristen elbowed Nathan on the chest as she hugged him tighter. It was really a wonderful night.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-**--***--*-*
Early the next morning, Nathan and Lucas went around walking the endless mall. Lucas
was enjoying the Captains company. It wasn't everyday that Lucas would get five new
pair of jeans and a huge banana split and a chocolate milk shake for breakfast. It was
almost lunchtime and Lucas had returned from unloading the stuff into Bridger's rented
car trunk. It was lunch time and the two entered a nice restaurant for lunch.
"What do you want Lucas?" Nathan asked the teen.
"I am not really hungry sir."
"Sure you're not! It has been five hours since we have eaten a meal"
"I did eat!"
"Junk food is not food."
"Fine fine fine, the lobster sounds good" Lucas joked.
"Hey, I am going to make you eat but not eat like a king!"
"You asked!"
"I set the limit!"
"Fine, just get me a club sandwich."
"Ok, I will be right back" Nathan said as he went to place his order. Nathan had seen a
great change in Lucas behavior- it seemed like the kid is acting like his old self. Nathan
looked back at the teen; Lucas was looking out the window and watching the other
people walk by. There was something troubling him though, Nathan thought as he
simple shook it off and moved ahead to order the meals.
Lucas was no sure if going to RAGE was a good idea. It seemed it was a great idea at the
time but he was mad at the time too. People seem to make big mistakes and bad
decisions when they are mad. But Lucas had promised his friends that he was going to
go. If he can only distract the captain to stay here until 5 pm, maybe there was a chance
for Damien's plan to work. If he couldn't, he would just simply apologized to his friends
and hope that they could forgive him. Lucas snapped back into reality as the captain
came back with the order number. He placed the number on the table and the two
continued to talk. 'It was just like in the ship' Lucas thought, the captain usually stopped
on by just to talk. Lucas was surprised that the captain had remembered some of their
conversations since the captain had told Lucas that he heard this story before. Lucas
laughed but then the bad side of his brain took over. 'What if this was what Damien was
talking about, the captain could just be nice to me just to keep me in his favor. What if he
really is trying to buy me off... No one would spend this kind of cash on a total stranger.'
Lucas thought but simply answered the captain that nothing was wrong when he was
asked. The two finished their meals and went back to the shopping spree. Lucas had
seen a video arcade and dragged Nathan with him. There was a really great video game
built for two players and Lucas pleaded with the Captain to join him. With in 2 seconds
of the game, Lucas had beaten the captain. Lucas cheered and played this time against
the computer. At the end, the computer won and also won Nathan's wallet of 10 dollars.
After the arcade, the two saw a show opening, Burning Souls 2 and Lucas was thrilled to
see it. After what seemed two boring hours for the captain, the movie had no plot – it
was just another scary teen movie. The lame movie ended and Nathan saw his watch, it
was almost 5pm. He still had to keep the teen buys for 2 more hours. They had seen
almost every store and Lucas declined the offer of seeing another movie. They both went
and sat on a bench near a store.
"Captain, why are you doing this?" Lucas finally asked. He had never paid attention to
the movie after he saw the captain's reaction in the first half hour. The captain had not
like the movie at all and there must have been a good reason that he was sticking up for
it. Lucas had thought why would the captain see that movie if he didn't like it, or the
Captain just to spend time with Lucas but maybe keeping him away from something....
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, it is great that we are spending a good time together, I am very grateful and all
but why?"
"Do I have to have a reason?"
"Actually, yes. Half the places we went was because I dragged you into them and never
did you complained. Surely on seeing your reaction to the movie- you didn't want to be
there. Plus you are spending money like a maniac on me. There has to be a good reason
for this."
"I just feel terrible that I forgot your birthday..." Lucas had heard the first few words that
the Captain said- Damien was right, it was all just a plot to get him to behave. Lucas
tuned out the captain; he was going to put his plan into action.
"Captain, I have to go.." Lucas said as he began to stand up.
"Where?"
"The restroom" Lucas whispered as he began to leave.
"Oh, ok. I will meet you back at the Knick Knack store. I have to pick up something for
Kristen." Lucas nodded. 'Yeah captain, got to keep her in line as well.' Lucas thought as
he made his way to the public restroom. He turned back to see where was the captain and
he was nowhere in sight. 'Good' Lucas thought and turned to the other direction, to
where the phones were. Lucas quickly got out some change and connected his call to
Ayne's cell phone.
"Yeah? Ayne speaking" the voice from the receiver answered.
"Its me Ayne, Jacob."
"Oh, I thought you were going to let me drive around here forever! So where are you J?"
"I am at the mall"
"What a sport, thanks, now I will go search the whole 50 malls out here and look for
you."
Lucas laughed. "Sorry, I guess I should be more specific."
"Yeah, I think so too." Ayne laughed.
"I am at the Woodridge mall near St. Augustine."
"Great! I am here at Butler Beach, its not going to take long. What you look like and
where do I meet you?"
"Meet me by the Hot Topic. I am wearing jeans and a..." Lucas said as he looked at his
shirt. "Red, blue flannel with a white undershirt."
"Being patriotic are we? Good, be there in half an hour."
"Wait, how will I know it is you?"
"You will..." Ayne said before she hanged up the phone. Lucas looked up at the mall's
clock, it was 5:00. Lucas made his way to the Knick Knack store and found the Captain
buying a nice small porcelain figure for the doctor.
"Hey Lucas, what do you think?" Nathan asked the teen as he held up the little figurine.
"Great. She will love it." Lucas said as he looked at his watch, 5:25. "Do you think we
can get an Icee?" Lucas said to the captain, the icee stand was not too far from the hot
topic.
"I don't see why not." Nathan said as he signed his name to the credit card bill and lead
Lucas to the stand. "I remember these, when I was growing up, they only had two
flavors- cherry and blue berry. But they all tasted the same."
"Yeah but you are talking about the age where there was no technology at all." Lucas
joked. He looked at his watch again- 5:30. Lucas shook his watch, thinking it was dead
or something. Lucas asked the captain what time did he have and it was the same.
Nathan asked if his watch was ok but Lucas said it was. He just thought that is was 5:30
a while ago. Lucas and Nathan both sat down on another bench and began finished their
white cherry icee in silence. Lucas looked at his watch again, 5:40. Lucas stood up and
pretended to stretch. He caught a glimpse of the hot topic store and quickly searched
with his eyes for a red blue highlighted hair girl. Lucas faced the captain and asked if he
could go into the store. Nathan was too tired to join the teen and agreed to wait for the
teen at the bench. Lucas walked into the gothic store and pretended to be interested on
the shirts. They weren't bad but the prices were too high. Lucas looked at his watch
again, it was now 5:50 and Lucas was growing nerves on meeting Ayne. Lucas walked
passed the shirts and now staring at some tight leather leopard pants. Lucas laughed as
he got a pair off the hanger and faced the mirror near the wall. He placed the pants over
his own and looked at the mirrors reflection. Lucas laughed as he thought about sitting
down and ripping them as he sat down, when someone can behind him and covered his
eyes.
"Guess who J?"
"Ayne?" Lucas questioned.
"They look good on you" Ayne said as Lucas kept holding the pants. Ayne let go and
Lucas turned around to face her. Lucas was taken back by Ayne's appearance. She was
dressed in a small dark dress with laces tied to the side. She wore dark lipstick, some
black half boots and by the looks of it, she was fit. Ayne in the other hand looked up and
down at 'Jacob'. Ayne went around him and whistled.
"Your not that bad... we could lose the innocence boy look and get you into a leather
jacket and some boots."
"No thanks. You on the other hand seems that you belong in this store."
"Gee thanks... now lets go." Ayne said as she began to pull him out of the store.
"Whoa.. Wait, I got to tell my dad."
"Oh come on J, he will not notice you are gone."
"Still...." Ayne complained as Lucas dragged her to meet the captain.
"Captain." Lucas yelled
"Why you call him captain?" Ayne questioned.
"Oh because if I yell dad, I will get all these dads out here looking at me... captain, I will
only get him..."
"Good thinking." Ayne said. 'Nice recovery Lucas.' She thought.
The captain turned his head and was surprise that Lucas was in company of a girl.
"Captain, this is Ayne, a friend from college! I haven't seen her in ages!" Lucas said as
the captain greeted her.
"Nice to meet you Ayne…"
"Ayne Laveaga. Nice to meet you too." Ayne said as he shook his hand.
"I was wondering if I could spend time alone with her.. that if it is ok with you...." Lucas
asked.
"Sure thing kiddo, I need to get back to the hotel anyways and get more credit cards...
Here." Nathan said, handing Lucas his only credit card. "Take it. Just in case." Nathan
said as he looked at his watch. 6:20. Perfect timing. This can give Nathan a chance to
get Lucas another birthday present and see how it is coming along at the hotel.
"Thanks!" Lucas said as he shoved the credit card in his pocket.
"Hey-ya J, I need a new pair of boots.."Ayne joked.
"Oh and did I mention that the charges on the card will be deducted from your salary?"
"No boots Ayne." Lucas laughed.
"Ok you two, go have fun. I will be here around 8 pm to pick you put ok kiddo?"
"Sure, thanks allot." Lucas said as the captain began to walk away. When the captain
was out of sight, Lucas let out the breath he had been holding what seemed forever.
"Though he wasn't going to let me go."
"Hey, if he didn't, I would have kicked his ass and drag you here with me! Come on,
let's go!" Ayne said as they both exited the mall. Ayne and Lucas walked into the
parking lot and Lucas was amazed when he came across a very expensive looking sports
car.
"This is yours?" Lucas asked as he drooled over the car.
"Yup! All mine, bought and paid for. I guess you can say I love good things..." Ayne
said as she opened the driver side door and hoped in. Lucas was still drooling over the
car when Ayne yelled him to get in already. Ayne entered the freeway and headed
towards Jacksonville.
"So where is the RAGE?"
"Jacksonville."
"Is everyone going to be there?"
"Yup! The whole Coven."
"What is that anyways...Coven."
"A name for a... a ...group that cant be broken. So tell me Jacob do you believe in faith?"
"huh?"
"I mean, it is faith that is making you come to us.. it was faith that made you open the
chat box, it was all faith..."
"I thought you guys don't believe in god."
"Faith has nothing to do with HIM. Faith can be either good or evil..."
"Well, if you put it that way, I say it is just plain luck."
"No one can be that lucky Jacob."
"But they can... I don't know, I have to see something in order to believe in it."
"We will prove that."
"Huh?"
"Nothing, I said that how would you prove that."
"I don't know, but time will tell. Do you have to drive this fast?" Lucas said as he read
that the car was doing 100 mps and not the limit, which was 80.
"I got this car for the speed, I am going to use it."
"Don't you worry that you are going to get caught?"
"If he wants it, he will give it to me." Ayne laughed, Lucas was totally confused by her
statement. 'He hasn't learned yet..' She thought. "The police I mean, he can try but I can
out run him" Ayne said as she pushed more on the accelerator.
-**-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Nathan walked into the hotel; he had some presents for Lucas and entered the hotel. He
was smiling when he saw the hotel hall- it was being filled with balloons and Kristen was
on a ladder trying to hang some happy birthday signs on the wall. Kristen turned to see
who had entered and almost lost her balance when she saw it was Nathan.
"What are you doing here!" Kristen said as she stepped down from the ladder, missing
every other step. "It is not ready yet! You couldn't keep Lucas away for another 2
hours!"
"Whoa, calm down, Lucas is in the mall, I came by myself."
"You left him at the mall!" from bad to worse.
"He meet an old friend there, a nice girl by the matter of fact and I let them catch up on
old times."
"Oh, you should have said so in the first place!" Kristen said as she went back to her job
on hanging the signs. Nathan would be forever lost in the area of understanding women.
He made his way to the ladder and held it for the doctor as she hanged the signs.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The two young adults reached the RAGE around 8 pm. Ayne had begged Lucas to
change clothes. Lucas didn't want to but Ayne didn't care for what he said, she drove to
a near by Club Ax-cess store and bought a whole new outfit for Lucas. Lucas still didn't
want to go and change but there was no way of talking Ayne out of it. Lucas exited the
store with a whole new look. He had his old clothes in a store bag and was shy of
stepping out of the car when they arrived at the club.
"Oh come out J, you look good!" Ayne said as she held open the passenger door.
"I look so stupid in this! How did I get you to talk me into this!"
"Because if you didn't change, you would probably have been jumped! Trust me J, you
looked like a momma's boy wearing flannel."
"Fine" Lucas said as he got out of the car. Ayne looked again at the teen, he had a great
body underneath all that baggy jeans.
"I told you the boots you picked out are terrible!"
"Well I never wore tight black plastic jeans before, so I am not an expert on matching!"
Lucas replied.
"Still, I think the plain boot you have are ugly! The ones that had fire tips on them were
so much better."
"But they didn't match my chain wallet. And I didn't think it went well with this jacket!
The jacket has too many zippers" Lucas joked.
"Funny! Come on, we are early but its ok." Ayne said as she pulled Lucas into the clubs
doors. Two big guys stepped in front of Lucas and didn't let him pass.
"What are you doing here BOY!" one of the men said.
"Leave him alone Allen, he is with me!" Ayne said to the big man.
"Ayne, picking them from the streets today?"
"Fuck off, he's a friend."
"Let me see some id." The other man said to Lucas. Lucas began to panic, they were
going to find out he was not 18. Lucas nerves less answered that he forgot his wallet.
"Sure kid, I think we show throw him back!"
"Here!" Ayne said as she handed Allen a 50-dollar bill.
"Fine, go ahead and have a blast." Allen said. Ayne thanked Allen and placed her arm
around Lucas shoulder.
"Don't let them scare ya, you're with me!" Ayne said as she lead them to a group of
people huddled in a corner table. "Hey everyone!" Ayne yelled to the group. "I brought
Jacob." The whole group turned to see Ayne and then set their eyes on Lucas. Four of
the girls went near Lucas and began to flirt with him.
"Hiya Jacob, have you ever played a game that involves a pole and me?" a girl in a
skimpy outfit asked the teen. Ayne went around and pushed the girl away.
"Back off Jezzie, he's with me."
"How about we share Ayne?"
"I don't think so Kat, this guy is all mine." Ayne said. Lucas began to blush as he thought
that these girls were fighting over him.
"Ladies!" A young man pushed his way into the circle center of women that surrounded
the teen. Lucas turned to the approaching man; the sight of him made Lucas wanted to
run. He was dressed all in black and had some heavy chains around his neck. He had a
collar of spikes and some bracelets to match. He had a long tattoo that ran from his left
eye down to his neck, it was a black and yellow snake. Lucas then looked down at his
outfit, except for the bracelets and tattoos; he seemed to look exactly as the man. The
young man approached Lucas and pulled out his hand. "Finally we meet Jacob. I'm
Damien." Damien said as the group gathered behind Damien. 'He seems to be the
leader' Lucas thought. Lucas took out his hand and shook Damien's.
"Great pleasure Damien." Lucas answered back.
