Jamie awoke refreshed and regenerated. She stood up and swished her tail back and forth. She then.... TAIL?

"What the?!" She gasped staring at the long and large snake tail that had sprouted from her behind.

"You continued to evolve through the night," Garet said from leaning against the doorframe.

Jamie looked at him and almost jumped with surprise. His skin was green patterned and scaly. She looked in the mirror and found that hers were too. With closer inspection she also found that her eyes had never looked more conniving and evil. Her pupils were reduced to a mere strip of eye. She could still see perfectly though. She stuck her tongue out at the mirror and was shocked to find it was forked. She gasped and jumped back. Garet walked over to her and stared over her shoulder.

"You look beautiful considering your changes," he said reaching down and holding her hands.

"Thank you," she responded finding it quite strange to have her tongue flick in and out of her mouth.

"We should go down to the training hall," he said smiling "we have to train you so that your appearance does not change anymore."

"Alright," she sighed.

He led her along holding her hand and they walked through many large and small doors holding many treasures and paintings. They quickly arrived inside a large hall with close to nothing filling it. Garet led her over to a box and pulled out a long cloth.

"What is that for?" asked Jamie.

"It is for your eyes," he said and he fit it over her eyes then tied it at the back.

"Why?" asked Jamie as he tied it.

"We must heighten your senses so that you do not need your eyes to see," he responded.

"Alright," she answered, "where are you?"

He kissed her softly on the cheek.

"Right here," he answered and pulled her along into the middle of the room "now I want you to catch me. I won't give you any advantages or else you won't be able to do it properly. Now go."

He let go of her hand and she heard him rustling about. She listened intently then followed the noises. He tapped her on the back then jumped up and behind her again. She felt the air in front of her knowing that he had just been there.

"I will talk as I run," he said his voice wavering as he ran around her "try and catch me."

Jamie lunged forwards knowingly towards him. He jumped up and out of the way. Jamie twisted around then ran forwards.

"Oh Garet I don't think I can do this," Jamie said uselessly waving her head back and forth.

"Just concentrate on your heart not your eyes," he said.

Jamie concentrated on finding Garet. Suddenly a small pendulum image appeared in her mind. It stood completely still. Then suddenly it flew backwards and Jamie whirled around then grabbed Garet out of mid-jump. He fell to the ground landing cat-like on his feet.

"Ah I see you have the pendulum gift," he said smiling "you see all the talismans do different things and have different gifts. There are three possible gifts to have. The pendulum, the fire ball or the energy drain."

"Energy drain?" asked Jamie pulling up her blindfold.

"The ability to drain energy from weaker opponents," he answered.

Jamie stomach rumbled and she blushed profously.

"I am starving," she said looking at the floor innocently.

"Well we will have to fix that now won't we?" He answered smiling.

He held out his hand and Jamie gladly took it. They walked silently out of the room and towards a giant hallway. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "Jackie!" Yelled Uncle.

Jackie huffed then walked over to uncle.

"Yes Uncle?" he asked.

"Need more green tea!" He yelled.

"Yes Uncle," responded Jackie picking up the teapot and pouring tea into Uncle's cup.

"Thank you Jackie," Uncle said sipping his tea.

Surianna walked in yawning. Everyone was staring at her. She looked at them and raised an eyebrow. She looked at herself. She had wings! Large wooly fluffy sparkly wings!

"Does this mean I have to shave my wings?" Asked Surianna feeling them.

"Um...no," Uncle responded.

Jade walked in behind Surianna's. She was rubbing her eye and yawning. She suddenly caught sight of Surianna's wings and suddenly snapped to attention. She jumped onto Surianna's back and held on tightly.

"Can I have a ride?" asked Jade in wonder.

"NO!" Surianna yelled shaking Jade off "1 your to heavy 2 I'm to lazy."

"Are you calling me fat?!" exclaimed Jade.

"No, no, no, no, no!" Surianna yelled "well maybe a bit bulgy."

"Hey!" Jade yelled "I'll have you know it's pure muscle!"

"Yeah and pigs fly on Venus," she whispered to herself.

"What did you say?" asked Jade.

"Oh nothing," responded Surianna.

"That is enough!" Jackie said standing between them.

"This is none for your business!" They yelled.

Jackie shrank back in fear of what they had started and hoped they would course their language. Suddenly Surianna and Jade started yelling at each other.

"I"M NOT FAT!" Yelled Jade.

"NO YOUR BULDGY!" Yelled Surianna.

"WHY YOU!" Yelled Jade back. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Meanwhile....

Jamie sat on her bed after eating some sandwiches. Watching her tongue flick in and out. In and out, in and out, in and out. She still couldn't get used to it. Garet walked inside and she stopped then blushed.

"Haven't you ever heard of knocking?" Asked Jamie.

"Actually the door was open," he responded.

"Oh," Jamie said.

Garet smiled then sat down on the bed next to her.

"I'm bored," Jamie said.

"Well I don't know what we could do," he said staring into her eyes.

"I don't know either," she responded smiling while staring at him.

"Well we could always train some more," he said moving closer to her.

"I don't think..." He suddenly leaned closer and kissed her.

She closed her eyes and he pushed her backwards until she was lying on the bed. He pressed against her and held her head gently. He kissed more heatedly and smiled. He slowly drew away and stared at Jamie for a while. She stared back at him feeling much more comfortable in that position than she would have thought.

"Garet this can't happen," she finally blurted biting her lip "I'm supposed to be the good guy and I'm supposed to defeat you or your supposed to defeat me. We can't fall in love."

"But I've already fallen in love with you," he responded smiling "madly in love."

"Oh Garet," she sighed staring at him pleadingly.

What was she going to do? She was supposed to be the one destined to defeat Garet and she was in his bedroom kissing with him!

"Don't think about it that way," he said staring at her.

Oh how she loved it when he was staring at her like that. Those beautiful eyes sparkling down into her. She could almost faint.

"Think about it as how we negotiate," he said and he began kissing her again.

He pushed her head onto the pillow and lay down on top of her. She smiled as he kissed her. His tongue entered her and began feeling seductively inside her. He pressed himself against her and began kissing more heatedly. She responded and he smiled. Suddenly there was a loud knock at the door. Garet moved away from Jamie and looked at the door loathingly.

"Hold on for a moment," he said staring at her affectionately.

"Alright," she responded sweetly.

He stood up and walked over to the door. He almost ripped it open and answered gruffly.

"What is it?" He demanded.

"We have infiltration in the landing," the rather portly man at the door responded "someone has entered the building sir."

Garet sighed in anger and looked back up at the man.

"Can't you handle it?" He asked gritting his teeth "I'm sort of busy here."

"We need your to help sir," he responded, "they need your help in the surveillance room."

"Fine but it better be quick," he growled walking past the man.

The man suddenly walked inside and closed the door then locked it.

"What are you doing?" Asked Jamie angrily.

"Jamie it's me!" Jackie said coming out of his disguise.

"And me!" Jade exclaimed coming out from under the trench coat.

"I really didn't need saving," Jamie said rolling her eyes.

"What were you and Garet so busy doing?" asked Jade raising an eyebrow.

"Nothing of your concern!" Jamie exclaimed blushing.

"Keep it down!" Hissed Jackie "ok we need to find a way out of here."

"There's a window in the bathroom," Jamie said pointing towards the only other door in the room.

"Good we better hurry before Garet comes back," Jackie said.

"But I want to stay with Garet!" Jamie whined.

Jade and Jackie looked at her surprised.

"Are you falling in love with Garet?" She asked her eyes wide with surprise.

"Yes," Jamie responded simply.

"You can't fall in the love with the person your suppose to defeat Jamie!" Groaned Jackie.

"I know," she whined "but..."

"No buts!" Jackie said grabbing her "we have to leave now!"

Jackie ran into the bathroom and kicked open the large window. He backed up a bit than ran forwards with Jade on his back and jumped out into the air. They landed in an alleyway. Jackie ran forwards then stopped and put Jamie down.

"All right Surianna come out now!" he hollered.

Surianna came out from behind a dumpster and grabbed Jamie.

"This flight is a one way trip!" She yelled and flapped her wings.

They took off into the air and were soaring towards Uncle's antique shop before Jamie could utter a word of protest.
