A Daughter Out For Revenge Chapter 2
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN THE NIGHT WORLD SERIES OR CHARACTERS
"Whoa, what? We can't have a new leader, Thierry's our leader, not you, Johanna!" Galen called out from beside Keller. "No offense, though."
There were murmurs of agreement all around the room.
Jez turned to Thierry. "Is this true? Are you giving her the position as leader? I honestly don't know, Thierry. Why not give the spot to someone who's been here longer? You know, instead of a newbie?"
Thierry's jaw dropped wider than it had been before. It wasn't true! He was still the leader, and would be as long as he existed!
"Relax, everyone." he said, then he turned to Johanna. "I'm sorry, but you're not the leader, Johanna, I am. I will be for a very, very long time as well."
"What do you mean?" Johanna asked. "I'm ALWAYS the leader of everything. I don't see why I can't be in charge here…"
Thierry cut her off. "You're a part of the team, not the leader. That's my job. And, anyway, if anything happened to me, James would be up at bat. If Hannah somehow got hurt, Poppy would take her place. That's how it works. The longer you've been here, the closer to the top you get."
Johanna glared at him and then sat down.
"I think that she seems kind of, well, cold to be in Circle Daybreak, Jamie." Poppy whispered to him. "I don't really like her too much already, and I don't even know her. There's just a funny feeling inside telling me that this isn't right."
James nodded back. "I don't think she quite understands what Circle Daybreak is."
"Why her? What's she to us?" Ash asked from the back of the room.
Thierry smiled. "Johanna is a witch, and a very, very powerful one at that. She is only 18, true, but she has much power and potential. I chose her because she can help us if we need something protected with a spell, seeing that that is her specialty."
Ash nodded in understanding, but still held a look of dislike on his face.
"Don't worry; you'll see soon enough…" Thierry started, but was interrupted by a loud crash downstairs.
Everyone seemed to get up and rush down the long, spiraling staircases. When they arrived, a tangle of midnight red hair was blowing in the soft breeze that came from the enormous gaping hole in the wall. Two of Thierry's guards were on the floor, unconscious, or maybe even dead.
"Blaze!" Morgede whispered. "She's found HQ!"
"Where's Thea?" Mary-Lynette asked worriedly; Thea was one of her closest friends in Circle Daybreak.
Poppy glared at her. "Blaze has broken into HQ and all you care about is where Thea is? We need to worry about getting her out first!"
"Right you are on that," Blaze said, a sly look crossing her face. "Thea and Eric, along with Rashel, Quinn, Delos, and Maggie, are at my HQ for Circle Midnight. I'll let you have the six in exchange for one." Blaze said.
"What do you want?" Thierry questioned.
"Easy. Her." Blaze said, looking at Jez. "She'll come in handy once she's on my side."
"We'll let you have Mary-Lynette and Ash!" Poppy said quickly. "That way when they turn I can get my hands on them without getting in trouble, particularly her…"
Ash snarled, cutting her off. He leaped at Poppy, but James leapt in his path. Both broke out in a quarrel on the floor, wrestling as they tried to get a hold of the other's neck.
Great, Keller thought. Two problems at once. A vampire has six of our team members, and will only give them back if we give them one of our most powerful, not to mention one of the four wildpowers. And, Ash and James are clearly out to kill each other, but that's pretty normal. I bet on James though….
Just then, another huge crash broke Keller's thoughts, coming from upstairs….
