Hey, here's chapter two! I hope this formats better than the first chapter;but I'm not getting my hopes up. Disclaimer: See chapter one
Reviewer: J, Thank you so much for reviewing. I love Underworld so much,and I appreciate your patience with my format. When I have a better computer maybe I can fix it.
Chapter 2. Breakdown
Selene led Michael through the cold,damp sewers. She was sort of numb. She was still clutching Sonjas necklace in her hand. Things just weren't reaching her brain.
Michael was worried about her. She hadn't said a thing since she'd tried to plead with Viktor not to kill him. He knew she must be suffering a great deal;but didn't want to make her mad just now by talking. He was well aware that he was much stronger than she was;but he didn't want her running off on him. He could sense somehow that sunrise was only a few hours away and he might be able to stand it, but she wouldn't.
Selene stopped abruptly as the full weight of what had happened descended upon her. It was like a thousand pounds had settled on her shoulders. She had killed Viktor, defended a lycan,and killed other death dealers. Now both covens would be after them,and god knew what the lycans were up to. And there was still Kraven to deal with,unless by some stroke of luck someone had killed him;but she doubted it. Kravens sense of self preservation was almost as well defined as his ambitions of power.
Michael almost ran into Selene when she suddenly stopped. He waited for her to warn him to move or get down or run;but she didn't. She was silent and he finally whispered, "Selene?" She didn't answer and he stood there waiting for her to move again. When she did move it was because she was collapsing onto the floor.
Selene heard Michael say her name from some far away place. She couldn't muster the energy to tell him to be quiet. Her legs were beginning to shake a little. They were turning to gelatin. She leaned against the wall and slid down slowly.
"Selene!?" Asked Michael. He quickly went around in front of her and saw the tears running down her blank face. Not knowing what else to do he sat down and pulled her into his embrace.
Selene knew what was happening;but she couldn't move. She was relieved when Michael hugged her. He was warm and real. She found she really could move,and hid her face in his neck.
Great shuddering silent sobs wracked Selenes' tiny frame as Michael held her. All he could do was stroke her hair and tell her it was okay. He knew it wasn't; but there was nothing else he could think to say.
He rocked her until her sobs eased and she was weeping quietly. Soon even this ceased, and her breath evened out. She was completetly relaxed and Michael realized she was asleep. He needed to get them some place warm and safe. It was anyones guess where. He knew the lycens and the vampires both knew where he lived. They'd most likely be able to track them wherever they went as well.
"What am I going to do?" He asked the air.
Well, here's chapter 2. Hope you like .Sorry it's so short. If anyone has any ideas for the next chapter feel free to let me know. I have no idea where they r going to go. I was planning on having them go to Michaels friend Adams';but it didn't seem like they knew each other too well,and I don't think Michael would endanger him by going to him. So any ideas are welcome, Thanks.
