AN/ hiya, everyone, ive got baby brother as my beta, he wrote the ending to this last chappy, so enjoy, and I do not own Malaria, LT. COMANDER RICHIE owns her. Sorry for the mix up. .AN/

Megan was having a bad day, first her brother nearly killed her, then the buss stalled mid flight, and if the fliers hadn't got it to stop falling, 35 kids would have been turned into pancakes. At school, powers had given them all detention, because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, and now she, Warren, Will, and Connor were sitting in the white room.

" Hey! I can make flames in here, want to bust out?" Megan said, holding a grenade of fire.

"Love to, where though? The roof?" was Warren's input.

"Nah, the grounds in front of the tree behind the school, I have doughnuts buried there. My treat, I have four dozen." Was Connor's comment.

" well, we still have to bust out of here, and I am the one doing it. Then she threw the fireball at the vent in the ceiling, blowing it away. Then she lifted herself up, and reached down for Warrens hand.

Once outside, the four kids, went to the tree, and Warren and Megan were up in the branches, talking.

" Where were you before Colorado?"

" I was in Hawaii, I was a shell diver before I moved for high school, and I want to go to college there, once I'm free of the curse. The curse of the zodiac."

" You never told me about your beads, what are they?"

" .. They hold my true form, without them, the malicious nature of the curse comes out in full force. and they are made of…."

"Made of what?"

" Human bones, they say the red ones are stained with blood, but I cant prove it. That is my existence, built on sacrifices. And I want to be free of this curse, if I can conceive a child with someone outside the family, I am free, and the child must of one I love, so…."

" will you love me, with or without this curse? I love you, Megan, and I cant give you up without a fight. And Dark…" warren was staring open mouthed as Megan removed her beads, and quickly changed to a repulsive creature, with an age old stench surrounding her, but Warren never flinched, that was the reason Megan never showed anyone this form, she reeked of death.

" Now what do you think? Am I as repulsive as everyone says? Am I as hideous as I am told? Do you still love me?"

" Yes, I love you, and yes, you do reek. An could you change back?"

" Hug me, and I will revert to cat form, and then you can put the beads on my neck, like a collar."

" ooooooooookay"

and Warren hugged her, did as he was told, and she changed back to her human form and looked at the arms encircling her, and realized she wasn't a cat anymore, and an old story came to mind.
