Chapter 2
Stanton waited out side of La Brea High looking for Serena. The school day had ended and he looked amongst the crowd to find his love. He knew she didn't have a cello lesson that day, so where was she? Maybe she was home sick, he told himself, and turned to make his way to Serena's house. He moved three steps when he felt an arm grab his shoulder and turn him around.
To his dismay it was Jimena, Serena's best and closest friend. She looked very angry. "Por que estas aqui? Why are you here?" Stanton looked around her to see if Serena was anywhere nearby. His heart dropped when he didn't see her. "I need to talk to Serena." He stated very clearly. Jimena's eyes became darker as rage built up inside of her. "Serena has been missing since yesterday, and I think you have something to do with it!" Stanton looked at Jimena confused. "Jimena, what are you talking about?" he asked. "Don't pretend with me Stanton. Serena loved you. I can't believe you could break her heart like that. Especially with Catty" Jimena turned on her heels and made her way over to Collin who was waiting for her in the parking lot with his van.
Stanton disappeared into the shadows and made his was to Serena's house. He slipped into her room and looked around. What was Jimena talking about with this betrayal to Serena? He thought to himself. He would never betray Serena; he loved her too much. Plus, he hadn't seen her in a week and he wasn't even in town until this morning. He continued to look around her room for some sort of sign. All of the clocks in her room had been smashed into oblivion. This had told him someone from the Artox must have been here, since they hated clocks because it reminded them of their eternal bond to evil. He hadn't done it; it must have been a Follower or even worse.an Infidus.
Stanton grimaced and screamed out of rage. Someone had tricked Serena into believing that he had cheated on her with Catty so she would turn over to the dark side. "I will NOT let that happen!" Stanton pledged as his evil side took over. He became a shadow and slipped out Serena's bedroom window just as Collin and Jimena were pulling up to the house. He was going to face Tymmie and Karyl again, he knew it was a trap but it was the only way to save Serena.
