Ok so i have a confession to make... The reason i hadn't updated in so long before these last few chapters was that i got really caught up in everyone else's stories... Obviously i was first drawn to this site because im obscessed with stories...anyways... i started reading everyone else's stories and then i couldn't keep mine straight...like i couldn't remember what i had wanted to happen in my own story because like a dumbass i didn't write some sort of outline so that i wouldn't get sidetracked (i wanted the story to evolve on its own). so then as i read other people's stories more and i forgot my own i started to look at my story as un original and dumb, which obviously did not encourage me to continue it... but then i re-read it and i actually laughed at my own jokes like it was the first time i had read them (a little embarrassing)

But the only reason i re-read my story was becasue of a couple new people that added me to their story alert and a couple old people that said they missed me...so thank you for making me get off my lazy ass and out of la la land to keep going with this story...oh and sorry this chapter is a tad on the short side (i had to leave you hanging!!)

Chapter 19

Jess didn't have time to organize her thoughts before she hit the ground hard. Everyone paced nervously above her, knowing she had 3 minutes to recover before Becca would go through the same thing.

Immediately remembering the task at hand, Jess opened her mouth to give the gift to the sons when Chase's voice made her stop dead.

"What is this? A family gathering? Oh but I didn't get an invitation!! And what is this protective barrier I see? Don't you know that's rude!!" Chase began circling the barrier held up by Becca, throwing bursts of power at it as if he didn't have a care in the world.

Reid stepped in front of Jess, trying to block Chase from her line of sight whispering, "you only have 2 minutes before we are all dead."

Jess nodded and immediately grasped hands with the sons (so they all formed a circle). Knowing what Jess was about to do, Chase began to fight furiously against Becca's defense before it was too late, and Becca was losing her grip on the barrier.

"I freely give you the ability to use without aging!" Jess screamed, worrying she was too late. Jess was instantly on the ground, the force of her gift would have knocked her out cold had it not been for the four boys holding her up.

With only one minute to recover Jess tried in vain to clear her head and stand up. Chase was taunting her in her mind, willing her to give up so that he could finish what his ancestors started. Becca was starting to shake from the effort it took to keep the barrier up. Tyler stood behind her incase she fell, screaming at Jess to focus.

Thirty seconds left now……Get out of my head asshole!!...never princess. You could have ended this months ago, but now all of the people you care about will suffer…Fifteen seconds….Jess could hear Reid begging her to open her eyes, but Chase's pull seemed too strong….Ten seconds…nine…eight…seven…six….five…

It was Becca's ear piercing scream that finally woke Jess up. Unable still to stand, Jess tried to put up the barrier from the ground, knowing that she only had one chance to get it right. God damnit Jess, hurry up. If you don't get this right everyone else will die, Jess thought to herself as she started to build up a barrier.

Just as Becca collapsed from ascending, Jess managed to get the barrier up, but Chase wasn't going to make it easy on her. While circling the barrier, that was already weak, Chase started to taunt Jess' mind again.

Come on baby, is that all you've got? It seems that I've got more power in my pinky than you've got in your entire body. How long is this really supposed to keep me out? It doesn't look like Becca even survived the ascension.

Jess instinctively broke concentration on the barrier to look to see if her friend was alright. That was her first mistake.

Noticing that the barrier had slipped slightly, Chase continued to pummel it with bursts of power and increased his hold he had on Jess' mind.

Who is she by the way Jessica? I was under the impression that you were the last of the sisters.

Well you were wrong fuck face, Jess thought back as she laughed out loud. That was her second mistake. The barrier needed all of her concentration and energy, which she was wasting on Chase by talking with him in her head. The laughter had only distracted Becca, who was trying in vain to stop shaking long enough to say the words.

"You know what Jess, I think I might keep you after all. I'll kill your friends and then make you my pet. Who knows, you'd probably be a fantastic mother," Chase said aloud, hoping to rile up more than just Jessica this time.

Motherfucker, Reid thought as he started to drop hands with the sons and Becca causing several things to happen at once.

"Reid stay where you are," Jess yelled, once again tearing her gaze and concentration from Chase and the barrier she was trying to sustain. This was her last mistake.

Chase, using Jess' slip to his advantage, thrust an enormous jolt of power at the barrier at the exact right moment, penetrating the barrier and hitting Jess square in the chest.

Chase, laughing over Jess' still body turned to the sons and Becca raising his arms to jolt again as Becca opened her mouth and turned to the sons still united circle.
