Once again, I am truly sorry about what had to happen to Vanessa. It took
me a while to think about what ships I'll put in this fic, but I just
decided Serena/Stanton, Catty/Chris, Jimena/Collin, Vanessa/Michael.
This is the chapter where the Daughters actually meet 'The Messenger'! Please be kind and leave a review.
Serena was pacing back and forth at the entrance to Planet Bang. Catty and Jimena were watching her awkwardly. Serena kept murmuring, "Where could she be? . What's Toby going to do to her? . Why? .."
Catty interrupted. "Serena, you're going to make us all go crazy. We need to do something about it, not just walk!"
"Yeah, but why does Toby have to rape Vanessa?"
"I don't know."
Jimena cut in. "Yeah, and I'm getting a weird feeling that Toby raping Vanessa is a lot worse than just raping her for revenge. It's like, because she's not a virgin any more, then.It's just going to be bad."
There was a collective shiver going up their spines as they thought of the potential danger.
A small voice interrupted their thinking. "You're them." The voice belonged to a small girl, who couldn't have been older than twelve or thirteen. She had jet-black hair that was shoulder-length. She was short for her age, and she had a complexion that made it look like she was not a native of L.A. Possibly San Francisco, but not L.A.
She cleared her throat, as if striving to be known. "I said, you're them." Serena gasped.
The girl spoke again. "You're them, aren't you? The Daughters of the Moon."
~Meanwhile~
Toby grinned maliciously at Vanessa, squirming on the floor. Blood was leaking from the inside of her thighs, spilling onto the floor. Her face was ashen, and her face was contorted into a look of horrible pain. And while Toby watched her, she dreamed.
Vanessa was dressed in pearly white sheer material, and kneeling before the lady. The goddess had beautiful blond hair tied up in a shiny knot, and was wearing iridescent silk. An elaborate headdress made of moonstone rested on her head.
"Vanessa." she said.
"Lady." she replied. She didn't know why she was addressing this woman as 'Lady', but she just knew that it was right.
The Lady caressed Vanessa's cheek. "Oh, ohh, you poor thing."
A delicate tear ran down Vanessa's face. "What's going to happen to me, Lady?" she inquired.
The Lady replied, "Vanessa, I will be frank with you. Losing your virginity will give you new powers, and it will soon be required of the others to do so as well. But, losing it to a Regulator will make these powers incredibly weakened."
"I'm ready to take that risk."
"Good, for you have no other choice. Now, I am going to send you back, and I will rescue you from Toby. I am not sure where I will send you, but I will drop you off somewhere in time."
"What if I end up, like, a month before Toby took me or something?"
"Catty will retrieve you." The Lady smiled, and Vanessa flew into the tunnel at the speed of light.
~Back with the other Daughters~
Jimena took the girl into the alley behind Planet Bang, and said, "Okay, little girl, who are you and how do you know who we are?"
The girl bared her teeth at Jimena, as if threatening to bite her. "First of all, I am not a little girl. I am twenty-two years old. This is simply how I prefer to be seen."
"I ask again, who are you?"
"I am a messenger of the Lady."
"Who is the Lady?"
"She means the goddess Selene." Jimena, Serena, and the mysterious girl turned to look at Catty.
