Kay trampled down the alley beside the cafe hoping the daughters of the moon wouldn't follow after her. She looked back to check just in

case. No one was there. She turned her head back forward and noticed something slither down the wall towards her. Kay skidded to a stop and

pressed against the wall as the shadow materialized in front of her. She let out a sigh of relief as Stanton came into view.

"What's up?" she asked breathlessly. A wierd feeling pushed into her head. "What are you doing?"

"Just reading your mind." replied Stanton cooly and the feeling was gone.

"Well stop it's creeping me out." she said as she started walking down the alley."You obviously want something from me, I can tell something

is nagging you."

"Not really, just wanted you to go to Planet Bang with me tonight." Stanton said walking beside her and staring up into the sky.

Kay stopped. "You want me to go to Planet Bang with you? What about the whole Serena thing?"

Stanton kept walking, "Did she tell you?"

"No, I just guessed by the way you sounded the last night, a bit betrayed perhaps."

Stanton stopped and turned around, "Look, Serena was a great girl, but her heart lies with the daughters of the moon. Not me."

Kay bit her lip. She really hadn't meant to hurt his feelings or remind him of anything but it just came out. If he wanted her to go to Planet Bang with

him then he would have to explain. Wouldn't he?

"Yes or no?" he asked impatiently.

"I guess so." said Kay grinning a bit. A date. Something she had never been on. It was a miracle she even knew what it was. But a feeling

overcame her. What about Serena?

"What about her?" asked Stanton.

Kay forgot about her and smiled "Will you stop reading my mind!" she ran towards him and playfully shoved him.

Stanton smiled, "I take that as a yes?"

She just kept smiling and walking.

"Hey, I'll walk you home." he said shoving his hands in his pocketts. "But I'd rather take you by shadow."

"Sounds like fun."

His hands came out of his pocketts and one took her hand. Her body slowly dissolved until it was a fine mist of grey. With that he took off slowly

at first, slithering up walls and going across front lawns without a care if anyone saw him. They would just think it was their imagination.

Abruptly they landed on Catty's front porch. It had gone by faster than she thought it was actually gone. Before she could say anything the fornt

door opened and Kendra stood there.
