Chapter 7 pt 2

Meanwhile, Thorne was studying the same ancient books Selene had looked through not long ago. Searching through one book, Thorne noticed some of the page had gone misisng. ''Sullen!'' She yelled to the door. Sullen entered, looking as shakey as he always did.

''Y..Yes ma'am?''

''Who was the last person touse this book!''

''I...I'm not sure ma'am.''

''Urgh! Nevermind'' She too slammed the book, and tossed it to one side. She gripped her head in her hands, and looked back up at Sullen. ''Have you found the whereabouts of the Stone yet?''

''No, Ma'am. But we do know it is not far from here. Xenobia is examining the map at the moment.''

''Good. Now, tell him to hurry, if we want our plan to succeed.''

Moments later, Xenobia entered the room. ''Ma'am we have found the location ofthe Stone. Its is in the centre of the Sacred NightFall Caves.''

''Excuse me! Its been there all along!''

''Yes ma'am. In the highpoint of the immortals, although, the guarding Lycans were indeed slain years ago.''

''Go find Selene, tell her it is urgent. Keep Michael occupied, although that shouldn't take much, seems ashe has that little brat to worry about now.''

Sullen and Xenobia left the room, and Thorne walked towards one of the wall mirrors. Stroking her long black hair, she smiled in the mirror, whispering ''Poor Michael, so stressed with his new daughter, and his forever distant mate. You shall be mine, we shall be together. As soon as you bite me, you and i will survive the Stone, and you will be mine.''

Michael and Selene headed back to the building. ''Im glad we've got everything sorted now.'' Michael smiled, wrapping his arms around Selene and Gemini. ''And now we must make our decision.''

Selene turned to Michael. Her eyes were radiant. They made her seem softer; not her usual cold hearted self, but showing her maternal side, her caring side.

''I can't leave you Michael. I couldn't do it. Nor to Gemini. You are my heart, my soul, and my family.''

Michael smiled, and hugged her showing that he appreciated her every word. Selene fumbled with a small piece of paper, staring at it, then smiling.

Xenobia and Sullen ran towards the small huddle, gasping for breath. ''Sel...Selene...Thorne...wants to...speak with you.'' Sullen spoke.

''Urg..urgent..'' Xenobia finished.

''I wont be long'' Selene told Michael, kissing him and Gemini on their foreheads. ''You go and change Gemini'' She continued. As she walked with Xenobia and Sullen, Michael leaned his nose closer to his daughter, and pulled a sour face.

Selene arrived in Thorne's study, and sat down.

''Selene, we need to come to a decision. This war will not wait, and neither will the Stone. Xenobia and Sullen has discovered the Stone can only be destroyed in an Eclipse. W emust seize this opportunity tomorrow. We have located the Stone, which means there is nothing in our way.''

''Apart from my decision?''

''Well, yes. Please tell me you have made up your mind...''

''It was a tough dilemma, but yes, i have.'' Selene replied.

''Well?'' Thorne was on edge to hear Selene's answer. She also seemed pretty psychotic.

''I have decided that i will be destroing the Stone.''

Thorne's face lit up with a smile. She seems pretty happy considering she'll be dying tomorrow Selene thought.

''But on one condition'' Selene added. ''I need a video camera.''

''A video camera?What for?'' Thorne questioned.

''Personal business.'' Selene replied sharply.
