Did I mention this story is dedicated to a certain Southern boy named after a city in Texas? Thanx a bunch for reviewing! Anyways, so we heard from Psiona, now aren't you curious about her twin?

Chapter 2: Princess of Blades.

            There was no Jennifer Kerrigan enrolled at Unity High on Garm. It was the only high school yet to embrace new legislation regarding Infested Terrans as Terrans. There WAS, in official records only, a Jennifer Blades. Her classmates knew her only as Demona.

            It was partly her looks. She had dark green skin with black features, large black wings, and dark, captivating purple eyes. She had a sort of a morbid beauty. It was partly her personality. She was sharp, bright but evil, playing twisted pranks on everyone else. But mostly, she was a loner. She actively shunned all gestures of friendship. She had a reputation to protect, ya' know!

            It was well known that she was Psychic. It was also well known that she was a Zerg, the daughter of the Queen of Blades. She liked it. It set her apart, made her a freak. Good. She would get respect.

            Once, a teacher made fun of her name. He got an apple psychically chucked at the back of his head and an "L" chalked on his forehead.

            Once, a teacher thought she was doing her a favor, being kind by not calling her Demona. "Would you like to go by Jennifer or Jenny, dear?" The class laughed. Jenny? Jennifer? None of them could speak for the rest of the day, and the teacher's do was found 2 days later, tied up in the broom closet.

            Demona had no dog. She had a Zergling named Bob. For some reason, he was not only allowed to participate in, but won every dog show he entered! They created a new section for Zerglings.

            She spent her free time in study. She studied means of controlling and enhancing her psychic abilities, new ways to use them, mid-flight acrobatics, self-defense, and her particular genealogy. She knew, though her mom would not admit it, that she was the child of the Queen of Blades. But what she DIDN'T know was who her father was. Of course, that's only what she knew she didn't know. Hers was a family of many secrets.

But now, at 16, she was restless. She knew all in the library about her powers, she knew all her mother could teach her of flight and combat, and she knew as much as anyone in town about her missing father. It was time to leave home. But she needed an excuse. She couldn't just LEAVE.

So she joined Urban Expeditions. Easy enough to get in on their twice-yearly offworld trips and get "lost" in a protoss training facility where she could send an e-vid to her mother. A bit primitive, perhaps, but their computer did not support the new i-vid standard.

She got her chance when they were taking a 3-week journey to Auir. The director was a bit apprehensive about her application, but Bob had a little talk with him to straighten things out. Her mother would be no problem to convince. Or so she thought.

"No. you're not going. You're too young."

"I am SO going!"

Demona tried a 'Jedi mind trick' on her, only to be astonished as her mother easily blocked the attack.

"So, you DO have psychic powers. What are you really planning?"

"Alright, you win. There is this thing… a Templar study group I wanted to enroll in, like a foreign exchange program, only one direction, not an exchange."

"Well… I suppose… just don't get mixed up in a Ghost program." Sarah didn't know why she had a strange fear of the Ghost program, but she did.

"Mother! I'll be fine!"

"Write once a week or I'll rip them apart getting to you, and then I'd feel a bit silly if u were fine."

Then the two women parted to go about their evening chores.

Tadah! Chapter 2, about Demona. Now you know who is checking my reviews. Now, can't you wait until the next chapter? No? HINT: what's on Auir? R+R, please!
