Darius paced the length of Lillith's living room, about four hundred times since he heard the news of Lillith surviving being in the sun, he had rushed over quickly as he could with Tessa and Alec hot on his heels.
"Tessa, I'm fine. It doesn't even hurt anymore. I should be back to myself by tomorrow night." Lillith complained.
"Look, you went out into the sun in Egypt, for crying out loud, I will do what I think is best for your arm, now where is Cole with that first aid kit." Tessa growled.
"Tessa, calm down." Alec states but flinched when Tessa snarled at him.
Cole shimmered in with a white box with a red cross on it, "Here Tessa,"
Tessa went to work, bandaging Lilith's arm and wrapping to her side, "I don't want you to move that arm until tomorrow night,"
"Yes, Mother." Lillith replies sarcastically
"What I don't understand, is why this happen?" Darius asks,
"There was protective charms around the lair, I had no other choice." Lillith answers, "Maybe calling you was a bad idea."
"Darius," Alec stated.
"What?" Darius asks,
"I think I may have a theory," Alec suggests
"Go on," Darius replies,
"Maybe Lillith is destined to be the next True Queen," Alec states,
Darius was flicking his eyes between Lillith and Alec, "That isn't possible, you have to be a blood descendant of the Queen then turned into a vampiric,"
"Darius, shut up and listen to me, legends tell that the true Queen of vampires was able to have children, for all we know, Lillith is a descendant." Alec states
"It's a legend, it doesn't mean it's true." Darius replies, "but it does add to the mystery,"
"What mystery, you said it yourself, we're strong because of the blood we drink, it could be the fact that I have a diet of demonic blood," Lillith interrupts, "I have a vampire to hunt down,"
"You're not leaving this country until we find out what caused this," Darius replies,
Lillith stood up and glares at Darius, "You think, since you're the Eldest. You can come into my existence and order me around, I don't think so."
"Lily, calm down," Cole states,
"No, I will not calm down." Lillith replies, "I never had to put up with anyone telling me what to do, since I was turned, and I'm not about to start now."
"Why do you care so much about this vampire?" Tessa asks, softly.
"Because I was given permission to end his existence, if he isn't caught and vanquished then he's going to keep on creating chaos," Lillith answers, "It was the Old One's last request, wasn't it?"
"Only you, would keep a request such as this," Tessa replies and shook her head,
"I know, it's foolish of me, but I can't help but feel that I should be the one who will vanquish the vampire who turned my father into our kind, when he shouldn't have been one." Lillith explains,
"She's not going alone," Cole spoke up,
"She's not going at all," Tessa replies, "It's stupid,"
"I am to going, and you have no say in what I do." Lillith growls,
"You're my sister, I can't lose you." Tessa states
"Well I think you don't have worry about that, Gabe might be settling down and Darius, I know for sure is." Lillith replies,
Tessa looked at Darius, "What is she talking about?"
Lillith looked at Darius, "Her name's Sophia,"
"Stop reading my mind," Darius growls,
"Stop shouting it to the roof tops," Lillith replies, "This mind reading thing doesn't have an on and off switch, you know."
"Darius," Tessa states, with her eyes bright with excitement,
"No, absolutely not." Darius replies, "Don't even think about it,"
"Too late for that," Lillith muttered.
"Darius, you've got to let me plan your wedding," Tessa states,
"Whoa, I'm not getting married!" Darius exclaims, before looking at Alec and Cole to help him out of this one.
Cole rises his hands, "Don't look at me, I'm divorced,"
"Not going to happen, Bro. You dug your metaphorical grave, you lay in it" Alec states,
"You forget, my big brother, what my Talent is, I can see you are connected to this Sophia, but your bond is not as bright as those two," Tessa states, before jerking her chin in Cole and Lillith's direction,
"Alright, that's it, Get out, Get out," Lillith states, as she stood up and began pushing her siblings toward the door,
"But we need too..." Darius states but the sentence was cut off as the door slammed in his face,
Lillith pressed herself against the door, and listened as Darius', Tessa's and Alec's footsteps retreated down the hall, "I said leave!"
"Damn, she didn't fall for it," Tessa replies,
Lillith was listening with her mind as well as her hearing, then breathing a sigh of relief as she couldn't hear anyone's thoughts,
looking on the clock on the wall, she knew she couldn't leave tonight, because of the time difference, so she resigned herself to go over her mail and see what was there,
"Bills, bills, bills, letter from the Elders," Lillith mutters to herself as she tossed the envelopes to the side before swiftly turning back, "Letter from who?"
Lillith flipped open the folded piece of paper, and scanned it's contents, "Well that's real nice of them, telling Leo to get the sisters to forgive me, ha ha like that will work,"
"what's next from them, finding out you're related to the Charmed Ones?" Cole asks,
Lillith turned and frowned "Don't even joke about that, it would be hard to accept."
"but it would be funny," Cole states,
"Yep, I can see it now, 'Hey, remember me, I just found out I'm one of your Ancestors' half-sister four hundred and fifteen years removed, so where can I put my coffin?'" Lillith replies, "Speaking of, it's almost morning, I need to rest."
Lillith stood up and walked over to her bedroom, she changed into cotton shorts and a shirt, made sure her pillow was nice and fluffy and climbed in,
Cole leaned over and kissed her, "Sleep well,"
Lillith smiled at him, "I will."
she laid back and felt her eyes drift closed, in the comforting darkness of her coffin,
