"Come with me" she pleaded.
"I can't" he whispered.
Her eyes closed and then re-opened showing a fierce determination, they were near, and she was NOT going to leave him.
Jasmine acted quickly, knowing that the only way she could win against Arodi was if she surprised him.
She let the Order's hunters in and allowed them to sense what was happening, then she with a heart felt unspoken apology hit him with her mental power knocking him unconscious with that she left and headed for the airport and from there to LA. She trusted her theatrics had saved her lover, however it meant she would be followed. The enemy luckily could only materialize if they knew where she was going she thoght of the beach and how she had an advantage there as she streamed into the night. She got to the airport right on time, the tickets were a ploy of couse as she checked in a ploted her emergency flight and took off in the Cessna that had been a gift from her adopted fam-NO do not think about any of it! She focused on flying, by morning she would be in LA she hoped her parents didn't mind a visit from their long lost daughter, she would stay with them untill she could wire the money to get her own place. Damn, she'd arrive as the moon was setting, when she so needed to find Chris. Chris, where are you? She thought. She pondered all the new events as she flew, she would go to LA either get her parents or Arodi to take up her guardianship. The order would send him and a few others west coast after her, but they needed the corrupted power source of Bright Morning so would leave their base there. Once Arodi got there they would have to figure something out. One thing for sure, she was not giving him up oposite side or no. She would transfer to a new ballet school, regular school, and UCLA, and she would take up her birth name. She would move her life here. And when the enemy followed her, far away from their power base she would destroy them.
As she expected she reached LA as the Sun was rising and the Moon setting. She would find Chris tomorrow night, but for now: She walked into a Coffe Shop and ordered a Chai, and a punpkin scone. She flipped open her cel and dialed information.
"Los Angeles California" she said authoratatively answering the operators question.
"Killingsworth, Serena" she said to the next question.
She paid her tab after finishing her scone and hailed a taxi and gave the guy the address she had just received. She automatically blocked the views she was receiving from the driver's gross mind. But she could do nothing to block the conversation in Castilian, however. The moron was obviously talking to a friend and it basically translated to "You should see this Chick I just picked up she is totally doable" Normally Jasmine would have let it go. She had just seen her adoptive parents die, met her real parents, found out her boyfriend was the enemy and was had no idea where her best friend was, normally was a few worlds ago. As she paid the taxi after he pulled up to the address, she responded in the language he had used "I would do you..with a nice Baretta Tomcat" She left the poor guy white and shock and walked up to the driveway to where she hoped was her parent's home
