Monkeys are scary. So are lawyers with law suits. . . now I know what your saying, but your wrong. I am NOT a fourth generation metal smith, ok?!? Geez, glad we got that out of the way. Ok, read.

'Ok, so who the hell are you guys?' Serena said bluntly.

'What's your rush?' Drew asked her, his sensual green eyes blazing.

'No rush, we just want to know who the hell you are and why you're following Serena,' Vanessa responded.

'Well actually, that one is quite easy to explain,' Proteus replied with his sexy British accent. Catty was surprised, though, that she didn't find this really sexy. Usually British accents made her go crazy.

'Ok, why aren't you attracted to us?!? And why aren't we attracted to you?' Tianna asked.

'That's also an easy one,' Tyson responded, his eyes dazzling in the afternoon sun.

'Well you better answer them soon, or my fist will be going through your mouths in a few seconds,' Jimena threatened.

'I'd like to see you try,' Proteus challenged.

'Sit your ass down Proteus,' Sean yelled as he pulled on Proteus's leather jacket to pull him back into his seat. 'We'll explain, but we just have one question for you guys. Why are they're five of you? There's only supposed to be four daughters.'

'Say what? How do you know that?!? And how do you know we're daughters?!? Who the hell are you guys?' Tianna asked quickly.

'Ok, so now we know you definitely are who we thought you are,' Tyson said, smiling.

'And who are you?' Jimena asked threateningly, 'Probably some type of followers, eh? Sent from the Atrox to destroy us?'

'Actually, just the opposite,' Drew replied, 'We're here to help you guys.'

'Oh,' all five girls asked in different tones.

'Well you guys are the "Daughters of the Moon, right? Well, we're the Sons of. . . come on, it's not that hard to guess,' Sean said, his bright white teeth showing in a wide smile.
'Sons of the Sun?' Vanessa guessed what they were all thinking.

'Yup, he's the one. Helios, god of the Sun, son of the Titans, father of Phaethon,' Tyson recited.

'Um, cool?' Catty said, confused.

'So technically, we're, cousins?' Serena asked.

'Yeah, I guess.' Drew told her, 'it would explain why we're not attracted to each other.'

'Well, how do we know that you really are who you say you are? And how do you know who we are?' Vanessa asked.

'Well, we know who you guys are because we've been watching you guys. Hence the "stalking" thing. Me and Drew felt Serena going through our minds and Sean saw you turn invisible and James, I mean Proteus saw Tianna bring a chair over with her mind to help Jimena when she was having a premonition. At least that's what we're pretty sure happened. Proteus would know.'

'Why, do you have em?' Jimena questioned sarcastically.

'Actually, yeah. Why do you think they call me Proteus? For bloody shits and giggles?'

They all laughed at that, and started asking each other questions.

'So what can you do?' Vanessa asked Drew.

'That's easy, he can read minds,' Serena said before Drew could.

Drew nodded. 'Was blocking only parts of my mind that obvious?'

Serena nodded back and they smiled at each other. 'And you?' Catty asked Sean.

'I can teleport,' Sean responded.

'You mean travel through time,' Catty corrected.

'Nope, I can teleport. That's why Tianna and Jimena didn't see me before. See, look,' he said, disappearing from his chair to next to Catty, only a little high in the air. He fell down next to her, and the girls all laughed. 'I'm still a little shaky on the landings,' Sean explained and Catty nodded, knowing what that was like.

'And you?' Vanessa asked, nodding towards Tyson.

'I can stop time,' he said with a grin.

'Cool!' Catty yelled.

'But you can travel through time? That's way cooler,' Tyson responded.

They all started talking to their cousins, excitedly about the semi- different powers they had. Jimena and Proteus talked excitedly about how Proteus had actually stopped a few of his premonitions from coming true. Vanessa, Sean, Catty and Tyson all talked together about landings, being able to go from one spot to another without being seen and the space time continuum. Drew and Serena were talking about the ways to mask their presences in a mind and ways to plant things into people's minds while Tianna listened in. They each, somehow, came to the subject of the transitions.

'Yeah, I am not looking forward to turning 20,' Tyson said when the topic came up.

'20?!?' all the girls screamed at him.

'Yeah, you know, the transition year,' he said, rubbing his ears.

'What? We have it when we turn 17! That's so not fair!' Tianna complained.

'Really? Well, you have to think about this though. When were the Greeks ever fair to their women? In Athens they couldn't even go outside!' Sean told them.

'True, true, but still. Tianna's right. It's not fair that you guys can go until age 20,' Vanessa responded.

'Yeah, and I bet our powers are a tad bit stronger then yours,' Proteus said.

'Lets see it then,' Jimena answered him with a challenge.

'Hey, hey, cool down. I hate to admit it, but Proteus is probably right. I mean, they've stopped they're premonitions? Drew can do things to people's minds that Serena can't? It sounds like we've been a bit jipped,' Vanessa said.

'No, it's not that,' Drew said, 'It's the fact that we've been alive longer. We're all 17.'

'Oh, ok,' Vanessa replied, feeling a bit better.

'So why are you guys here anyway?' Serena asked.

'Oh, yeah, that. Well, actually, it's because you guys are going to die without our help,' Tyson responded.

That's all for now! Hahaha. So now you know they're really not evil. Or is this all just one big trick?!? ahahahaha! I love cliff hangers :-P ok, until next time; ADIOS!
