Chloe: *Reads over chapter* Hmm.

Me: Hmm?

Chloe: Hmm.

Me: Give me something more then 'Hmm'.

Chloe: Mmhmm.

Me: For goodness sake, I'm getting Liz.

Chloe's POV.

Derek didn't have time to react. The log hit him straight in the head-hard-knocking him down. I cried out and crouched next to him. He blinked but looked dazed. I glared up at Dr. Davidoff.

"I want to see how powerful you are, and that means no Derek to help," He brought up a rock the size of my fist. "After all, you did kill me."

"You killed Liz! And Brandy! And goodness knows who else!" I cried.

Dr. Davidoff glared back. He threw the rock. And Derek-bless him-dived at me. We both fell to the group with an umpt.

"Chloe?" Derek put his lips near my ear. "Who is it-ah!" Davidoff flung Derek off me. I scrambled up only to be knocked down log that had hit Derek. I fell, head first the ground. Rain was pouring down and it was getting darker and harder to see Davidoff. I got up again and ran towards Derek.

"I-I-it's Dr. D-Davidoff!" I said when I reached him.

"Can you banish him?" Derek breathed.

"I-I-I think-" I was pushed into Derek. Derek swore and i saw him fail for a second. We jumped up and started running away from Davidoff. I came to a stop when he appeared in front of me.

"You can't run from me," Davidoff grinned evilly. "Seems that you aren't all that powerful. Unlike me. Watch." He flung his hand at me. I sailed into the air. I heard Derek calling my name. I bashed into a tree. I blinked. When i re-opened my eyes, Davidoff face was inches from mine.

"I'm going to finished my job Chloe, one way or another. I am going to FINISH IT!" He yelled.

"Oh yeah?" I pushed at him with everything I had. I threw my hands out. He fell backwards, screaming and kicked. He flew through a tree and faded. I sagged against the tree. I saw Derek running up to me. I gave him a weak thumbs up. He breathed a sigh of relief and sat down next to me.

I looked at him. His head was bleeding, his cheek was slightly darkened. His hair and clothes were soaked. He looked back at me too. He brushed his hand over the side of my head. His hand had blood on it.

"We need to get that cleaned up," he said.

"Ditto," I pointed at his own cut.

He gave me a crocked-smile. I rested my head on his shoulder.

"I take it he's gone?" Derek asked.

"For now."


After we cleaned up and changed into dry clothes we told everyone what happened. Aunt Lauren kept shooting worried glances at the window, like she was afraid he'd come back. Tori on the other hand was fuming. She glared at the wall.

"I hope he rots in hell while cats eat his eyes out and the Devil sets his ass on fire!" she snarled.

"Isn't that a little harsh?" Simon asked.

"Not for him!" She snapped.

"Geez. What's up with you?"

"My inner bitch woke up, and she's in a foul mood."

Note to self: Leave Tori alone for awhile.

I went into the kitchen and naturally, Derek followed. I made a sandwich. When I turned around Derek had taken half of it.

"My sandwich," I took the last bit. "Mooch."

"Got no money," Derek grinned.

"Find some. H-hands off my sandwich," I warned.

He laughed. He made a reach for the rest of it but I dodged his reach. I put the sandwich in my mouth- most of it anyway- and ate it.

"Yum," I grinned.

"Try biting your food," Simon said as he came in. "I hear that's the way to avoid choking."

"Listen to him, Chloe," Derek said. I glared at him. He put his arm around my waist.

"Speaking of food though, Simon you need to check your blood sugar-"

"Already on it, bro," Simon grinned. "I'm grabbing something to eat now. Okay?"

"Good," Derek grunted.

I rested my head on Derek's chest. His head was beating quite loudly. I smiled.

"S-so, what's the plan for tomorrow?" I asked them.

"We go to Rae, if Liz can lead us there?" Simon said, looking around for Liz, who suddenly appeared beside me, making me jump.

"I sure can!" She said happily.

"S-she can," I smiled.

"Great," Simon smiled back. "Better get the bed then. Dad wants to set off early."

Dare I say it, but things are going pretty well.
