This idea so isn't mine so I give the credit to Selene Daughter of Nyx.
Chapter 29
Selene's POV.
I passed out. I could sense Erik was near my body. I could still feel everything I just couldn't move or speak because my soul was taken out of my body. I knew where I was so I walked up the stairs that were in front of me. I entered the building without being told I could come in because this was my mothers kingdom in the other world. I was not afraid because many times she had called on me to make sure I do certain things or check on me. I was now standing in the living room waiting for my mom to appear. "Hello my daughter." I heard my mom say from behind me.
"Hello mom." She came up and hugged me. "What is it now that I must do?" I asked her because every time I was here I had to do something to stop the end of the world.
"Do you remember Kalona. The one who feel from the kingdom?" She asked me.
"Of course. You sent me to earth after him." Which was true. She had asked me to leave the kingdom to go and look for Kalona.
"Exactly. I know you know that he is back."
"Of course I do."
"Can you feel him getting more and more powerful?"
"Yes." I paused to look up at my mother. We looked so much a like. "What is it I must do?"
"You must stay with the chosen fledgling Zoey Redbird. Make sure you protect them and stop Kalona." It felt like a mission out of a Charles's angels movie.
"Okay. Is that all that must be done?" I asked her. I knew it wasn't though.
"Not quite yet. You are connected to all of my Vampire and Fledgling's I have marked so you have every gift I have given them." Which was true I could access the five elements, never miss my mark and whatever else was out there. That's why I could never get mad or loose control. "Have you been practicing?"
"No." I said. I knew I should practice but it was just to dangerous to the people around me.
"You need to start practicing because you and Zoey will need to return to Venice to stop Kalona." She said looking very serious. "You must help Zoey and her friends. Teach them how to use the elements to there advantage."
"I will do as you wish." I said. I was my moms little warrior goddess daughter and she loved me more than anything. I was the most powerful person walking earth right now. Kalona was never a match for me that's why I was chosen to go after him. It is my mission.
"I will give Zoey a new gift. The gift of speed. It will come in handy because you two are going to be running a lot in the near future. Help her with that one as well." I nodded.
"Where is Erebus?" I asked because he was every where my mom went.
"I am here Selene." He came walking through the doors. I ran up and hugged him. He was the dad in my life other than Kalona. But I had to shut Kalona out because I knew he had turned evil. "Where have you been?"
"Earth." I say it so simply. "But I must return. I have a new mission and an old one."
"Kalona still?" I nodded. "You truly are a moon goddess but at the same time a warrior of the night." He said to me. I smiled because he always called me his little warrior daughter. "How have you been though?" I saw my mom move to his side.
"Good. I have a boyfriend well kind of." I said blushing a little.
"What's his name?" My mom asks me.
"Erik Night." I smile just thinking that he's going to be there when I wake up.
"Ah! Yes Erik. He is a boy with the gift drama." My mom nods in approval. "Do not let him get in the way of you mission." She said. I nodded. Nothing would get in the way of this mission.
"I should go." I said.
"Do you have to? I mean you just got here and we so rarely get to see you now." Erebus was saying to me. I knew that I didn't send my spirit here to visit because there was no reason to. If my mom wanted me she pulled my soul up to her.
"Yes." I say looking at the man I call dad. "Mom?"
"Yes?" She said looking as if into my soul.
"Can I have my warrior and goddess tattoos back please." I asked her because since I had to fallow Kalona to Earth she had put them safely away so no one would know I was the moon goddess at first or the night warrior. It gave me the advantage of looking like a normal vampire even though I was a powerful vampire.
"Of course. It would be best if you had them so Kalona could recognize you." She comes over to me and touches my heart. "You are my daughter the moon goddess and a warrior of night. I am so proud of you Selene. I will always be with you in your heart. I will watch over you like normal." She kissed my forehead and pulled me into a hug. "Good bye. I love you." She said. Then Erebus came over to give me a kiss on my forehead and hug too.
"Good bye. I love you."
"Good buy. I love you both." I said waving. I walked out the doors and into the light that would take me back to my body, to my new family, Erik and my marks that show who I am and that puthe the fear into anyone who looked at me.
Zoey POV.
It was lunch time. I had gone to all my morning classes because Lenobia thought it would be best if we all went on with our lives like normal. Stark was sitting beside me at our usual table. I saw Erik walking into the dinning hall. Stark waved him over. "Hey." Stark and I said.
"Hey." Erik was out of breath.
"Where were you?" I asked because as soon as drama class was over he ran out of the room.
"I checking to see if she had woken up yet." He had so much hope that Selene was going to wake up soon. I wish I could be that hopeful but she was so still and hardly took a breath.
"Did she?" Stark asked. I could tell he was hopeful with a side of doubt. The two of them were going through so much pain. They would talk to her and say there sorry that they couldn't protect her or wish she would just wake up already. I wish she would wake up to. There's no one to talk, have fun with or a good girl night with. I hardly saw Stevie Rae now because she was so wrapped up with Dallas. I knew she was upset to and wanted to be with him right now.
"No she's still the same if not worse. Her heart beat is irregular and now she takes one breath every ten minutes." Erik ran his hand through his hair.
"Every ten minutes!" I was shocked earlier it was every five but now it was ten. I felt a sharp pain when I hear the bell ring. Something wasn't right. "Do you have to teach?" I asked Erik hoping it would be a no.
"Nope. Why?" Good because something didn't feel right.
"Are you going to go stay with her?"
"Yeah. I always do when I don't have to teach a class." He smiled a little. It was the first time he had smiled since Selene had fallen three days ago. Time was starting to fly by.
"Good I think that she might need you. Stark and I will come by after next period since Lenobia told me I could skip last period to go and see her." I said.
"Please don't call Selene a her,she because she isn't gone yet. She's still there." Erik said looking a little bit hurt.
"How do you know she's still there? I mean her body is here but her soul could be gone." I said. I didn't know what I was saying but my head was so messed up. All I could do was worry is she ever going to wake up again.
"He knows Z." Stark said looking at me now.
"How?" I said still a little doubtful.
"When he holds her hand or when we talk to her or even kiss her on the forehead Selene smiles." He smiled remembering a time he had seen it happen. I saw it to because he was opening his mind to show me the memory of when Selene had first fallen and Erik held her hand and kissed her fore head. I saw her blush and smile at him. Any doubt I had of her not returning was all gone. She was still there and we just needed to be with her now.
"Your right S is still here. I'm sorry I was doubtful." I said to both Erik and Stark.
"I should go." He got up and was walking away when I yelled.
"We'll be there soon and don't leave her side for any reason." This feeling had gotten worse.
"Never." Then Erik left the dinning hall.
"Do you think she's coming back to us?" I asked Stark when Erik had left.
"I have to. She's my sister and I wouldn't want her to die or get stuck where ever she is." Stark said. He was so sad.
"I feel the same." I kissed him gently. "Let's hurry and go to the last class were going to today." We left and went to Vamp Soc.
Erik POV.
I walked into Zoey, Stevie Rae and Selene's room. I used the key Zoey had given me because I was here so often now. I walked over to the bed where my sleeping beauty laid. If a kiss could awaken her I would give her millions of them, but life isn't a fairy tale its reality. All I could do was hope and pray to Nyx that Selene would come back to me. I would wait for however long it takes for her to come back even if I had to wait my whole life. I just wanted to see her smile again. Sometime she smiles when I talk with her or hold her but it is a smile that is not her own. It is a life less smile. I wish I could hear her laugh. She had the best laugh I have ever or will ever hear it was like music. I started to talk to her. "Hey I'm back. You must be sick of me by now but even if you are I'm still not going anywhere. No matter what." I took her hand and held. I brushed a piece of hair that had fallen onto her face. "I miss you. A lot. There is no one clever enough to challenge me the way you normally do S." I really missed our little challenges and disses. They weren't mean but they were something only we knew what they really meant and they were so much fun. "Want to know what keeps playing in my mind?" I paused even though I knew she wasn't going to answer me. "When we jumped off of the roof of the East building and had our first real kiss. It was magical and when I told you I liked it I really meant it. Every time we kiss it feels so different but they are a equally special kisses to me. Wanna know what else is on my mind?" I paused again for no reason. " Every time I'm happy it just gets taken away from me. First Z and now you. You know what else? I feel in love with you the very first day I saw you. I said Erik you need to be with that girl. Well it came partly true. I was with you but it was cut short." I looked at her very still body and saw how weak, pale and small she looked. I wanted to cry and beg her to wake up. I stopped talking for a while and watched her breathing it had been half an hour since her last breath and her heart was beating fester than ever. "Selene!" I called when I felt her heart stop. She had stopped breathing to. "Wake up!" Tears were falling out of my eyes but I kept yelling at her to wake up. "Please Selene breath." I was on my knees by her bedside clutching her hand. Zoey and Stark came into the room about a minute later.
"Hi-oh my goddess." Stark said dropping to his knees by her side. I looked over and Zoey was curled up in a corner crying.
"WAKE UP! S THIS ISN'T FUNNY!" I yelled at her through my tears. I finally realized her hand was as cold as ice.
"Erik it'll be okay." Zoey laid her hand on my shoulder while Stark looked at his sister with shock that she had just passed on. I felt for him because we all felt the same way right now. "Oh goddess! I had forgotten about Lenobia." Someone was at the door. Zoey stayed talking to the person for a little while then the person who I soon realized was Lenobia burst into the room was by Selene's side crying.
"Mene! Mene! Selene! Luna! Moon!" She called all of Selene's names. "I'm sorry. Nyx please help her she is your own child." Lenobia went on like that for a really long time begging Nyx to save her daughter. I stayed silent because there was nothing left for me to say that would change this.
Zoey POV.
I walked into my room Erik was crying. Then I saw Selene she was so pale. I could only have guessed that she was dead. I fell so fast and Stark went to sit by her side. Lenobia came and was now crying by Selene too. I couldn't bring myself to go and sit near her because I couldn't believe that Selene the outrageous, funny, beautiful, tough, moon goddess and great daughter of Nyx was dead it just didn't feel right to me. I cried for my lost best friend and sister.
Stark POV.
My twin sister was dead. I knew that it might happen but I didn't think it would happen this soon. It felt like something was missing from my life and heart. Selene held the half of my heart that Zoey didn't own because she was the sister I never had and she was the only family other than Zoey I could count on. Now it was just me and Z no Selene. She would never call me Star again. She would never come back but I prayed to Nyx she would return to us.
Lenobia POV.
My fledgling, best friend and daughter. She would always be the child of Nyx but on Earth she was like my own and a mother never wants to loose her own. My heart ached. I had just gotten her back and now I would never see or hear from her again. She would only be a memory that would eventually fade. Nyx please I prayed.
Selene POV.
I felt my spirit leave my body to go and get the marks that were kept safe for it. I felt the burning sensation of my goddess marks coming back to me with the marks my mom had given me and my night warrior marks coming back too. I felt my strength and power become one. I was now Selene the moon goddess, a Night warrior and the great daughter of Nyx. I was the most feared and worshiped goddess out there other than my mom of course. I was the Night warrior. Everyone who saw me feared me. I could kill without even moving from my spot. I was the only one to ever earn the title of Night warrior. I had my mom's love, grace, power and strength. With these things I could take on the whole world and win. The burning sensation went away and I felt my spirit go back into my body.
Erik POV.
I looked up at Selene and noticed she had tattoos all over her body that were not there before. They were all different colors some were even black and white. They looked perfect on her because they fit her just right. "Guys look." I called to everyone. The three of them came rushing over and gasped.
"Her" Zoey said.
"Marks" Stark finished for Zoey. "There colorful." He was smiling.
"They are her marks. As you can see every part of her is covered in a tattoo. The black and white ones represent her being the Night warrior. And all those colorful ones are her gifts. She has every gift Nyx has ever or will ever gift to someone and more since she is the moon goddess. That is how she knows so much about everyone's details even there most deepest ones. " Lenobia explained.
"So she knows everything about every vampire?" Stark asked.
"Yes and human. She is connected to all of us." Lenobia responded. I looked at Selene. Her eyes popped open so fast.
Hope you like it. Sorry its really long and not good.
What should happen next?
Love always,
Latisha
Ps. I will update tomorrow. Love all of my reviewers.
