Here's my disclaimer: I do not own Daughters of the moon or any of the characters from the books. I only own my characters that I created.
A/N: Okay I decided one chappie in Stanton's POV. I guess I forgot to explain the Stanton/Serena situation in this story so here goes:
This is set somewhere after they started dating (you pick a spot lol) and they got into an argument because no matter what Stanton is still evil (I know we don't think of him that way because we all love him but that's how she thinks of him for now in my story sry) And so they don't agree and oh ya in the last chappie when Serena stiffened and looked his direction it was because he was making smart ass comments to her and telling her she looked like she was dressing to impress. Just thought I'd add that in lol but ya so they don't exactly see eye to eye.
"I'm only here with you because of Kylie." Serena stated coldly to me.
"Sure," I said skeptically. At that moment I spotted Kylie sitting on a bench almost ready to fall off of it. And standing above her behind the bench was Tymmie. I pushed the gas petal farther and farther down to the floor. Kylie finally looked up as if she were waiting for someone to rescue her. She saw my car and then turned back to Tymmie. Tymmie, however, was too fixated on his prey that he didn't notice the car speeding down the street until the headlights flashed on his face. He quickly turned to look at who it was that disturbed him, but as soon as he noticed it was me he bowed down slightly and mentally apologized while slowly backing away.
"This girl is off limits! Tell the rest of them that too." I placed the thought into the teenagers mind. Tymmie turned and started walking away from the scene. Serena jumped out of the car and ran over to the stunned girl who was staring after Tymmie. I slowly stepped out of the car and stood there silently watching as Serena questioned the girl on her well-being. Kylie told Serena again and again that she was fine, but I wanted to make sure. I tried again to push inside her mind. I hadn't been able to before when I tried, but I had assumed her mental voice was just quieter and so I needed to be closer to hear.
However, I couldn't hear her thoughts now even. "Serena can you hear her thoughts?" I whispered the thought across Serena's mind.
"No," she replied, slightly shocked herself. "I can't."
Just then Kylie looked up and saw me standing by my car and a confused expression came over her face.
"I thought you said he was bad news?" Kylie whispered to Serena while pointing at me. "Why are you with him then?"
"It's…complicated." Serena said and left it at that as if it answered the question. "Come on, we'll take you home."
"No," Kylie said defiantly. "I'm not going anywhere with you until someone explains to me what the hell is going on!" She began to raise her voice more and more. I stepped forward at this and walked over to the confused girl.
"I'll explain to you in the car." I said as convincingly as I could.
"No you won't!" Serena yelled across his mind. I just gave her a daring smile.
"Your secret had to come out one time or another." I stated back mentally. Serena looked from the girl to me and then glared at me.
"This is about what Jimena saw isn't it?" She asked maliciously. "Well you can forget it because it's never going to happen!" She stated coldly into my mind.
I thought about the images I had gotten from Jimena's premonition. I smiled slightly and looked at the girl, realizing she had been watching our private conversation without hearing what was actually being said.
"No," I finally answered Serena's question. "This is because she deserves to know the truth. She just became a part of this. Other Followers will try to test my boundaries by any means necessary. And some won't back down as easily as Tymmie did. She deserves to be prepared for what's coming."
"How can you include her in this? She has nothing to do with this battle!" Serena screamed across my mind. "Leave her out of it; I know you can protect her without her knowledge of it, so do it. Prove your power." She finally said.
Kylie looked extremely confused and I motioned for her to come to me. Serena laid a hand on the girls arm, but the girl shook it off and continued walking. Once she got to the front of my car she stopped and looked at me questioningly. I walked over to the passenger side of the car quickly and opened the door for her. I looked at Serena sitting there on the bench with a slightly defeated look on her face. I tried to read her mind to see why she would give up so easily, but she blocked me out.
"Are you coming or not?" I said aloud to her.
"Do you – " But at that moment a van came around the corner and stopped in front of Serena.
"We got a problem." Jimena said from the driver's seat. "We need you right now Serena. If Stanton is as good as he says he is then he won't hurt her. But we really have to go right now, Maggie called an emergency meeting." Serena gave her a skeptical look and then looked back and forth between Kylie and Jimena, then at me. "It won't be tonight, don't worry, she was wearing different clothes." She said reassuringly.
"Fine" Was all Serena said as she got into the old van.
I watched them drive away, and then looked back at Kylie sitting in my car, still waiting for an explanation of everything that just happened. I sighed and walked around to the driver's side, opened the door, and got in. My fingers curled around the keys as I twisted them to start the engine. All the while the same question kept running through my mind.
"Where do I start?"
A/N: Okay do not worry you will find out what Jimena saw I just don't know how I'm going to put it in yet ^_^ As always tell me what you think.
