Strike took a leap at Demona but was kicked away. She growled in pain and she hit the ground. Brooklyn was fighting to get Demona's foot off him but to no prevail. Strike stood up and growled. She threw off her sunglasses to show her eyes were burning red. She was about to attck Demona again when she heard a shot from behind her.

"No more of this! Do you have it Demona?!" A low voice grolwed.

"Yes I have the gem. These two fools have been wearing the most powerful gem and didn't even know it." Demona said.

"Hey we're not fools!" Brooklyn and Strike growled.

Strke whiped around to see a man. His blond hair was cut to the bottom of his ears and cold blue eyes that could freeze the warmest heart. Stirke's breath quickened as she back away. She bummped into Hudson makeing her stop cold.

"Lass are you alright?" Hudson asked resting his hands on her shoulders.

She only nodded but Hudson knew something about this man scared Strike. He put a little preasure on her shoulders to remind her that he was there. The man stepped foward up to Strike. He smiled evily.

"New friends?" He asked.

She didn't answer and looked down at the ground. Hudson got between the man and Strike.

"Foolish gargoyle you can't stop me now it's to late." He growled.

A light suddenly engulped Hudson and when the light faded he was gone. Through the group were gasps. Strike looked up at the human.

"You thought you could lose me huh? Well I only let you get here because I need you here." He growled.

"I don't know you. What do you want?" Strike growled.

"I want the Granolum Arcranolum (I don't know If I spelt that right.)"

"Well I don't have it."

"But your feiend Xanatos dose."

Strike growled loudly then snapped "He's not my friend."

"Fine he's not but he still has it." The man said turning to Demona "Go get it but leave the gem here."

Demona placed the gem in his hand and headed into the castle. He turned back to Strike.

"So why do you need me?" Strike asked.

"You know I need a half gargoyle and returning you to you orginal form was easyer then makeing one. You just needed a couple of blood interjections."

"What are you talking about? I was all human untill Demona and her danm expermients."

"You have forgotten. Well that will change."

"Here it is Artemis." Demona yelled running out of the castle.

"Good." He said takeing the book. "Now sleep Demona." He added and waved his hand over her.

Demona fell to the ground. She was out cold. Brooklyn suddenly pounced at Artemis but was stopped in mid-air. He had hit a feild and a shock went thou his body then suddenly he was thrown agenist a wall. Brooklyn slumped to ground.

"Fool." Artemis said and turned to Strike.

Artemis started to chant as a white light hit Strike. She fell back to the ground. By now Brooklyn had gotten to his feet and stagered over to his clan. Artemis started to chant faster. Strike lept to her feet but the white light hit her down again. It covered her body. The gargoyles and Elisa had to cover their eyes. A sound of a painful scream caused them to look.

The light had cleared and there stood a new gargoyle. Her hair was long but silver with a red streak in it. Her green eyes seamed wild and untamed. Her body was a deep deep blue and her clothes were made of leather. A pair of loose pants and a shirt that was tied in a knot near the bottom of her ribs. A sliver band hugged her right upper arm muscle that it looked like it was on for good. Also a large scar crossed her left eye.

A small smile croosed her face. A low chuckle began the grow in the gargoyle then she bust out laughing.

"What's so funny Strike?" Artemis asked

She suddenly stopped and looked at him. Her eyes narrowed and she took a step closer to him whispering: "You never should have done that."

"Why?"

"Because I remember now. I remember everything, down to the part where you killed my clan." She roared and tackled him.

"Get off I order you!" He shouted.

Strike lept back and smailed.

"I knew you were under my comand." He said standing up.

"No I just want a real fight." She said chuckleing.

Artemis rush Strike and she doged then attacked. Brooklyn watched as the two enemies fought but his mind was telling him to stop watching and help. Strikes tail shot out and wrapped around Artemis's waist. She jumped over him throwing him to the floor. He lept to his feet when Brooklyn tackled him. Brooklyn lept back next to Strike, his eyes glowing slightly. Strike looked at him and a smile crossed her face.

"Thanks I'll need some help." She whispered in Brooklyn's ear.

"I'll always be here for you." He answered.
