Chapter 31:
Serena stared at the man that was her father in every sense of the word except the sense that
actually counted. He gave her money, or rather he just started giving her finaicial support. He
was unfeeling and not warm at all. But she loved him. She didn't get it though, he treated her
like shit every time she called him. She always called him, he never called her. The only reason
why they spoke was because she made the effort to be his daughter while he didn't give a damn
if he was her father. It got her mad and sad at the same time. Why couldn't he love her? She
loved him. "Dad what are you doing here?", looking at her watch "at 3:30 in the morning?".
"Can't I visit my daughter?", said Kal with his usual smirk. God she hated that smirk. It was
always mocking her. "NO not you, you don't have a daughter remember, that's what you said
the last time I called you", said Serena barely keeping her emotions in check. Zan grabbed her
and pulled her into a hug and kissed her forehead. She smiled at him. He always knew what to
do not to make her go crazy. Kal looked at Zna hugging his daughter, when did that happen he
wondered oh well never mind. "Look can I come in it's important?", said Kal rubbing his hand
over his eyes. Serena looked up and said, "What is it? Is it mom? Is she alright?" in a panic
tone. Kal rolled his eyes and replied, "Your mother is fine she is at my house now". Serena
narrowed her eyes at his reply and was about to yell at him about what exactly her mother was
doing at the jerk's house when Zan spoke up, "What do you want? Whatever you got to tell us
say it quick so you could stop making Serena feel like crap by you being here". Kal looked at
the young man with anger but sighed when Zan and Serena moved out of the way to let him in.
Everyone sat around the living room looking at Kal in a suspicion. He was their protector but he
didn't know the meaning of the word. He failed them numerous times. "Fine I guess Serena has
explained to you that I was supposed to be your protector". Maria snorted and laughed at loud
at that statement. "Oh yeah we heard that joke, some protector you are", said Maria sneering at
the man. Kal replied, "You know nothing about me little girl". "But you would have if you
protected them like you was supposed to, they have been hell and back, all of them plus your
daughter you know your flesh and blood that you seem to love to torture", replied Maria.
Serena got up and ran to her room slamming the door. Zan got up and followed her. Kal just
put his head down and rubbed his eyes again. He looked up and said, "Look I fucked up
alright, I'm not a good person sue me, I don't have time for this, look Kivar's men are in
Nevada" "We know that", said Liz looking at the man how failed to protect Max from the white
room. Her eyes narrowed at him when she felt her sister in pain in her room. Everyone must
have felt it because they just glared at Kal Langley harder. Kal looked at these bunch of
children really and felt their love for his daughter. It was something that he couldn't fully give her
even though he wished he could. She called him and made the effort but he always treated her
like she wasn't nothing. "Yeah, look they having the Harvest but that could be taken care of but
it's Kivar's skin that's down there that I'm worried about, He is strong on Antar but if he gets
that skin he will be even stronger. His strength killed you on Antar with other factors of course
but that was what he had on you. Zan was a king that didn't want to be king. He hated it so
much that he wanted to advocate the throne but his mother begged him not too". "Yo thanks for
the history lesson, but Serena can give us this, how do we kill him is what I am wondering", said
Kyle. God he couldn't stand Kal. That man is what people were afraid of aliens for. "Yeah
alright, he dies like the regular skins but if his soul travels into that body its going to be hard to
defeat him.", replied Kal. "What do you mean soul, wouldn't he have to die for his soul to come
here, why would he kill himself?", asked Liz. Her mind was traveling a mile a minute trying to
think of reasons why this man would want to do this. "Yeah how did you know that?", asked
Langely. "Serena told us, she explained us how people travel though lifetimes together, soul
mates are always together because their soul recognize each other even if they are in different
bodies", replied Liz.. Kal looked impressed. He then saw the door open and Zan walk out with
Serena following behind him. She was hiding her face with her long hair. Zan put her arms
around him and kissed her hands. He sat on the couch and pulled her onto his lap. "Alright
what's up?", asked Zan. Serena was still keeping her head. The others knew tat she was just
covering her tear-stained face. Michael walked over to her and said something in her ears that
made her laugh and put her face up. "Thanks", Serena replied. Michael walked back to his seat
where Maria whispered in his ears, "What did you say to her?". "You know the usual that her
fathers head was the shape of a dick that why he was being a dick head to her", said Michael
with a serious face. Maria just shook her head and laughed. Isabel looked at them and smiled
and returned her attention to Kal again. "Alright Liz asked you why he would want to kill
himself", said Isabel. "Because he is stronger here and he know there is no way that you can get
back to Antar so he is coming with the fight here instead", replied Kal. Kal looked nervous
about something and Serena noticed that. "What is it dad, what are you hiding, we deserve to
know", said Serena. "Yeah umm, Kivar found a way to bridge the gap between here and Antar
like a worm hole but he has one shot to open it here on Earth it only happens once every 50 or
so years. Well anyway he can bring technically any soul he wants to bring through the worm
hole like Rath's old army that basically is his army now", replied Kal. "My army?", asked
Michael. It sounded weird saying that. Michael who was just a poor kid from the wrong side of
the tracks had an army. "Yeah your army, with Kyle is that your name?", asked Kal. "Yeah
that's my name, what do you mean my army too", asked Kyle looking confused. "Well you
were my brother's second-in-command but you headed a small faction of Rath's army too, they
reported to you when Rath was away or busy, it was your army too", said Serena looking
confused. "What is it Serena?", questioned Alex. "Nothing really its weird remembering stuff
like that, and it comes out of no where", replied Serena to her brother. "How do you know that
Kyle was Michael's second-in-command?", asked Max. "Yeah Serena's gift is similar to mine I
got to see past events to plus I know by how tight he is hugging Angelina over there", replied
Kal. "Angelina?", asked Isabel. "Yeah that was my name on Antar", replied Ava. "Isabel there
is something I got to tell you, my future self told you that were not Vilondra which is true your
soul isn't, but you have her essence what makes Vilondra who she is, so when Kivar comes
here and I know he will, he is going to play on the Vilondra part of you. I hate to say it but the
pull is extremely powerful. Alex has to be there with you every step of the way so he can't get
you alone because he can tap into that part of yourself that is Vilondra, and you too Ava he can
do that too. Vilondra and Ava's DNA is what makes you able to tap into your powers and so
when using your powers Kivar can tap into that frequency too to get the best of you", said
Serena. Isabel and Ava looked worried but Alex and Kyle pulled them closer showing them
that nothing can keep them away from them especially Kivar. "Why didn't you say anything
before?", asked Alex. "I just got the info in my head now, I don't know where its coming from",
said a confused Serena. Zan pulled her closer to his body and kissed her forehead. "Alright we
will deal with that, we won't let Kivar touch you guys you know that, so nothing to worry about,
now back to Kivar being powerful, is there a way for us to tap into his powers like he could tap
into Ava's and Izzy's", asked Zan looking at Kal. "I think so but that would mean that he can
tap into yours too", replied Kal. "What is his weakness?", asked Kyle. "I mean everyone has
one, there has to be a way to kill him, yo Serena did you get any visions of how the other
timeline of us killed Kivar?", asked Kyle. "Nope it didn't come to me yet, I'm still only up to the
part when I met you guys", replied a disappointed Serena. "Don't worry it probably come soon
then we must have killed Kivar not long after that form what future you said", said Liz. "Alright
what are you guys talking about, what future Serena", asked a confused Kal. "You didn't tell
him", said Ava. "No I forgot to, look dad this is how it went down", said Serena. She relayed
the whole future version of Serena coming back to the past to save them all. "So you telling me
that she did a transference, that's a lot of power, it usually takes 5 people to do it and they are
usually exhausted after, she must be really powerful then, so that means you will be too", said
Kal. Serena looked at him and said, "I guess, my powers grow faster every day, faster now
then ever before in my life, I don't understand why though". "Well she was pregnant at the time
too", said Isabel regretting the words as soon as they came out her mouth. She winced when
she saw Zan and Serena stiffen. "I was pregnant?", asked Serena. "Yeah you were, the baby
was sick for a little bit but I healed you, I mean future you, but that baby won't exist that way
any more it will be Zan and yours now and besides she brought us pictures of the future or
whatever and they disappeared when she did meaning that everything changed", said Max. His
statement seemed to calm them down. "Xan is going to be born two years later now, the future
is changed", said Liz rubbing her belly with Max. "The babies name is Xan after Alexander this
Alex right here because he dies", said Serena to Zan when he looked confused. Zna nodded his
head understanding. "Wow I'm honored, you named the kid after me that's cool", said Alex.
"You didn't know?", asked Max. "No I never knew his name just that he was a he, Serena
never told me, not that Serena future Serena", answered Alex. "Alright what are we going to do
are we still going to Nevada when we said we would or are we going now just in case Kivar
gets his soul in that sick body, man that sounds weird, too sci-fi", said Michael shuddering. "I
know this fucker's soul is trying to kill us now, that guy won't quit will he", said Ava. "When is
the harvest supposed to begin Kal?", asked Zan. "It is suppoed to begin nest week so you guys
picked the right time to go, but what are you going to do with your mates, you guys have
powers too", asked Kal looking at Liz, Alex, Kyle, and Maria. "Yeah we do", said Maria
simply not elaborating any farther. She didn't like him because he treated Serena so badly.
"Alright I got to go", said Kal looking at Serena who was looking down at the floor again.
"What is mom doing at your house?", asked Serena. Kal rolled his eyes he knew she wouldn't
let that rest. "She is moving to LA and she needed a place to stay so I afford her a place to
stay, I'm not sleeping with her if that's what you thinking", said Kal. Serena's jaw ticked at that.
"She wouldn't sleep with you anyway, besides I'll call her later and make her move into a hotel,
she can't stay around you with out you trying to get with her. You hurt her too many times and I
don't want to go through that again, of you abandoning me I mean her", said Serena still looking
down on the ground. Tears were making their way down her face. Zan held her tighter and she
moved her face into his neck crying softly. He mumbled soothing words in her ear and glared at
Langley. Kal looked at his daughter and sighed. He never will get this father thing right. He
loved her but he just couldn't tell her, just like he couldn't tell Kim her mother that he was still in
love with her too. They deserved to hear it but something just stopped him. He looked at his
daughter one more time sighed and walked to the door and walked out of his daughter's life
again. Zan picked her up and walked to her room with her laying her down on the bed and said,
"I will be right back, I'll sleep here with you, okay", said Zan. Serena nodded her head and
said, "I love you, tell the others that the guest rooms have sheets and clean towels in the closets,
come back soon I don't want to be alone", said Serena looking like a lost little girl. She had
unshed tears in her eyes. Zan nodded his head and kissed her softly.
Zan walked into the living room where everyone was discussing the issues that Kal talked
about. "Hey guys I'm going to sleep Serena said there are sheets and towel and everything in
the closet of all those guest rooms upstairs if you want alright, we will train tomorrow okay",
said Zan. Everyone nodded their heads and maria said, "Let me go say good night to Serena"
following Zan into Serena's room. Serena was facing away from her and she walked up to her
and looked at her and made a connection, something she didn't know she could do. She
showed Serena how she felt when her father left her and that she got a part of herself back
when Michael came into her life, a part she didn't even know was missing. She then kissed
Serena on the forehead and whispered, "You are not along, I understand too, so does Zan and
Michael. We are here for you". Serena smiled at her friend and nodded her head saying a low
"Thanks Maria". Maria looked at Zan staring at her and smiled she kissed his forehead and
patted his shoulder saying, "Take care of my girl there". Zan nodded his head and said, "I will".
Maria walked out the room and closed the door softly behind her.
