DISCLAIMER: I don't own Daughters of the Moon or any related things, but
I've made up some characters for this.

"It's Catty. The rest of us are here and we have her," Catty spoke into the speaker of the apartment building. A voice okayed her and the door buzzed, letting them know it was unlocked.
They walked up some stairs and down a hall where a small lady was waiting for them by an open door. Although she had silver hair, she seemed very young. She wore a simple, but elegant, dress and the sound of wind chimes sounded from inside the apartment.
"Welcome, my dears," she greeted them all and embraced them. "Come, we have many matters on our mind," and she led them in.
"I'm Maggie. Carmen, you are very lucky. Tu es dea, filia lunae," Maggie said while they were sitting at a table. How did she know her name?
What she said sounded like Latin, but she could only pick up parts of it. "I'm a what? Moon girl?" Carmen questioned.
"You are a goddess. A Daughter of the Moon. Selene, the goddess of the moon, needs help. She needed a Daughter with courage and intelligence, and she picked you. There are already five Daughters," Maggie concluded by looking around the room at the girls.
"We told her about Pandora's box, the Atrox, Followers, and protecting hope," Jimena commented.
"Well then," Maggie thought for a bit and went on. "The other night, you had a dream with Selene coming to you."
The ghostly figure? Carmen nodded.
"When Selene touched you, it was real. She gave you a power. The power of transfiguration. Selene wanted to give you proof she was really there, so she opened your window on her way out."
Carmen was in awe. So the whole dog thing wasn't wishes or some freaky occurrence of nature? "Was she following me through the house, too?"
Maggie frowned. "No. I'm afraid that could've been a Follower, one of our enemies. After they failed to get Tianna, they've been wanting to get you. All of you girls have power. Tianna can move things with her mind, Serena can read minds, Jimena gets premonitions, Catty can travel in time, and Vanessa can become invisible."
That explained how Serena knew her thoughts all the time. She looked up at Serena, who nodded in response.
"This is a very odd situation. Carmen, you are a year younger than them. They will have to go through the transformation at seventeen when they loose their power, but you'll get another year. Perhaps Selene has her reasons." Maggie looked out the window at the moon. "If you have not noticed, the rest of the Daughters have amulets. The amulets warn them and offer some protection. But they are only a symbol of your power."
Carmen hadn't noticed the moon necklaces on them, but before she knew it, Maggie's hand was outreached presenting her with an amulet.
"I believe this is yours."
Carmen took it, the cool metal felt nice against her skin when she clasped it on. She was a goddess. At the thought, she weakly smiled; but she was still had fear and nervousness.
"Girls, I'd like for you to visit but your families must be expecting you. Have a safe trip home."
