After school Jennifer walked home alone. She was offered a ride but she turned it down, she needed the exercise. Jennifer walked with Will instead, he offered to walk her home.

"So what have you been up to?" asked Jennifer, trying to start conversation.

"Nothing really, just playing sports and hanging out with you," replied will, kissing her on the forehead. In return to his kiss she slid her hand into his. They walked that way down the curvy road Jennifer lived on until they reached her house.

"Want to come in?" she asked.

"Sure," he replied and Jennifer led him in, hand in hand.

"Want a drink?" offered Jennifer, he just shook his head no.

She walked back into the large living room to where he was sitting on the couch and sat beside him. Jennifer looked up into his blue eyes and he looked back down at her. He was quite a bit taller than she was and he had quite a bit of muscle. 'He looks a lot like Stanton' she thought to herself as she leaned in and gave him a long passionate kiss. Then she pulled back teasingly and looked into his eyes again. She was just so drawn to them.

Will looked like he was older than he actually was. He was only 17, two years older than Jennifer was. He had shaggy blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. He looked almost exactly like Stanton but a tiny bit different. When they went out, everyone always thought that Will was Jennifer's older brother.

Jennifer laid down on Will and looked up at him. She smiled and they went into a kind of trance, then the phone rang. Jennifer jumped a bit and looked at the time, it was almost five o'clock. 'Crap!' she thought to herself as she sat up and walked lazily to the phone. "Hello?" she asked.

"Hey Jenn!" replied Alex.

"Oh hey," said Jennifer.

"So are we still on for tonight?" asked Alex.

"Its Monday right?" questioned Jennifer.

"Yeah," replied Alex.

"Okay then," said Jennifer, "I am allowed to, just you have to tell me your phone number and address. And what time do you want me over."

Alex told Jennifer her address and phone number and said what time she wanted her over at. "Oh and Jennifer," she said, "You don't have to bring any clothes, but you might want to bring clubbing clothes. But not revealing ones."

"Alright, I have just the perfect outfit," replied Jennifer, then Alex hung up.

"Who was that?" asked Will who was sitting on the couch still.

"It was Alex, I'm going to her place tonight," said Jennifer.

"Well are you still going to planet bang tomorrow?" asked Will.

"You can bet on it!" exclaimed Jennifer as she walked back over to where he was sitting and sat on his lap and started to kiss him. They made out for about a half-hour and then she looked at the clock and it was quarter to six. She leaped off of Will.

"Damn, I have to be at Alex's in fifteen," said Jennifer as she got off the couch.

"Alright, I'll go. But I'll see you tomorrow at school right?" asked Will.

"Yeah, and at planet bang too, don't forget," she answered as he walked out the door. "I love you." She whispered but she knew he didn't hear, the door was already closed.

Jennifer ran up the stairs to her bedroom on the second floor. She grabbed a shirt with a motorcycle logo on it and a pair of black leather pants. She strapped the belt in and out of the belt loops and took out her earrings. Jennifer glanced in the mirror, she looked almost like a follower. 'How the hell am I going to do my hair?' she thought scanning her brain for ideas.

Jennifer ran into the bathroom and grabbed tubes of red and blue washout gel and some funky hairpieces. She put her hair up and teased it all over with the colors then she snapped in the hair clips. She went back into her bedroom and took a look of herself in her large mirror. "Great, now I really do look like a follower," she moaned but didn't care and then she ran down the stairs.

Once Jennifer was down she wrote a note telling her family where she was and Alex's address and phone number. Then she locked the doors from the inside and turned invisible and floated her way to a street away from Alex's. Jennifer slid into a side ally checking to make sure no one would see and then she turned visible and ran out onto the street down to Alex's.

Jennifer stopped infront of an older house on the quiet street, she looked at the address on her hand, then the number on the door and it matched. Jennifer walked up the many steps to the front porch and looked inside through the glass, it was an apartment. She walked in and looked for Alex's last name, found it and pressed the button.

"Hello?" asked a breathless Alex.

"Its me," answered Jennifer, then the door buzzed open and she stepped in and started towards the door at the far end of the one long hallway. Some dark shadows started to appear rapidly and she increased her walking speed to a jog, and then a run. Once she reached the door it opened and Alex stood there waiting.

"Coming in?" she asked.

"Yeah," replied Jennifer as she walked in. The apartment she had was a small and dark place with only a single window lighting the tiny living room. Alex left the light on in the bathroom and there was a small kitchen and an even smaller bedroom. "Alex, did you run away to find me?" asked Jennifer.

"Yeah, why else would I be living here alone," Alex replied, "Nice outfit."

"Yeah, yours is nice too," said Jennifer as she looked around some more.

Alex went back into the bathroom and finished applying her make-up, "Ready?" she asked once she got out.

"I've been ready for like ten minutes," answered Jennifer.

"Okay, then lets go," said Alex as she opened the door and waited for Jennifer to walk out first. Then once they were both out of the doorway Alex shut the door and they walked down the hall to the front door. They walked out into the night.

The moon wasn't visible in the sky, but Jennifer's moon amulet didn't give any warning so she just walked on down the road. "So where is this party?" she asked.

"It's around here," Alex replied then she turned down a deserted street. Once they walked past a few houses you could start to head pounding music coming from a warehouse fifteen houses down.

Jennifer and Alex continued to walk silently and then they soon were outside the warehouse. Alex walked up to the guard and whispered something in his ear, or so it looked it, and he let them both into the party. Immediately once they were inside Jennifer's moon amulet started to glow and thrum against her chest. She tucked it into her shirt, keeping it hidden from sight.

Alex was crowd surfing, it would be impossible to find her now, so Jennifer just started to dance. Soon plenty of guys came up to her and asked her to dance with them. She danced with plenty of guys then one came up to her, his eyes smiling.

"You want to dance?" he asked.

"Sure," Jennifer replied as she grabbed his hand and went into the middle of the dance floor on ground level. They danced for a while then Alex came up and grabbed her and dragged her away from him. Jennifer's moon amulet came out from under her shirt by the sudden jolt. It was glowing and heating up rapidly. It sensed something dangerous very close. She looked up and saw the hansom guy just standing there.

"Come outside with me," she pleaded and he followed.

Once Jennifer, Alex, and the guy were all outside she looked up at the sky, then at them. Her Amulet glowing and growing hot very quickly. She glanced at their eyes, both eyes were glowing phosphorescent yellow. She screamed.

"Alex!" she yelled, "you told me you weren't one! Why did you lie to me!"

"His name is Jake," Alex said and then she smiled. She clung to his arm and kissed him on the cheek. He then smiled and kissed her back.

"So this was a setup huh?" questioned Jennifer, "Is it?"

Jennifer screamed at the top of her lungs, some teenagers that were outside making out glanced over and ignored them.

"Yeah, I guess it was," replied Alex calmly, "Jennifer, come with me. I'll bring you to the dark side. You'll be able to step into the cold fire and burn away your mortality and stay the way you are forever. Come with me please?"

"Never," spat Jennifer, she so badly wanted to punch the both of them.

"Fine, if you won't go willingly, we'll bring you to the Atrox ourselves," said Alex and she nodded to Jake, he grabbed her arms and then Alex clung onto him. They were taking her in shadow.

Jennifer drifted in and out of sleep, trying to build energy for a surprise attack. She let her energy attack them and immediately she fell from the arms of Jake and rolled onto the asphalt road. She got up and started to run when a piercing scream came from behind her and she looked ahead, only being able to see a truck coming right for her. Its horn honked and she turned around and was hit.

Jennifer lay motionless on the road, roars of an ambulance and police cars coming fast. She couldn't open her eyes but she could see the lights from the cars slithering over her. She tried to move but her body felt as if it were trapped. She started to cry, but that's the only thing she could do. She left so helpless. She finally fell asleep trying to forget what had happened, right there on the road. She drifted into sleep and was taken to the hospital by ambulance.
