"Oh shit." Reid stated, slumped against the coach, watching the reactions of the others around him, both Sarah and Snicks looked like they were at a lost for what to do. And honestly he couldn't blame them. Even Caleb looked worried.
What if that happened to one of them?
"You can say that again." Maddie said sitting next to Sam on the steps. They should be dead! There is no way this should have ever happened to them. They didn't deserve this. Anger building towards Sam, if only she got there fast enough. Shaking the thoughts out of her head Maddie suppressed her anger… for now.
Kara unknowingly chose now to walk in to the house of all the times in the universe. That girl sure knew when to come make things seem so much worse. In Sarah's mind Kyra was an angel compared to Kara. Kara just made their lives unbearable.
"Oh am I interrupting something?" She questioned smirking at the glare she received from both Maddie and Sarah. Sam had to wonder if Kara lived only to make their lives hell. 'Why did I tell Liam she could stay here again?'
"No you aren't Kara. Did you need something?" Sam questioned calmly secretly planning way to rip Kara limb from limb.
"Actually I need to talk to you privately." She said to Sam who glanced at her questioningly.
"Oh secrets. I love secrets." Sam joked gesturing to Kara to follow her up stairs, against the glances from Maddie. Kara obediently followed realizing that this was her only chance.
As Sam climbed up the stairs with one last hopeful look at the others down stairs, she walked down the long corridor into her room. "Alright what do you need Kara?"
"I'm not Kara." Said a dark crackling voice as Sam turned around Chase grabbed her by the neck and lifted her off the ground. "I knew there was something different about Sarah but who would have thought you'd come around. Huh, little sister. Too bad you weren't able to join us for the first introductions and your brothers attempt to kill me. But I have more power this time around. No one will be able to stop me. Not even the pathetic little Covenant. Even with all of them ascended. There is no way to stop me. "
"Chase Collins." Sam stated as if it was the most natural thing in the world, a well developed technique adapted from her way of life. "Obviously you have never met me in your lifetime, because I will find a way to stop you, whether or not you like it."
In total outrage Chase pushed harder on her windpipe cutting off all oxygen to her body. Laughing evilly he watched her squirm. "You look just like Sarah did when I kidnapped her. But my new friend gifted me more power."
"The Source." Sam said wide eyed, chocking on her words.
"Oh and she's intelligent too." Chase laughed stepping out of the shadows, more into the light. He looked the same as Sarah described, of course he couldn't age in hell. Sam couldn't be that lucky. "And how are my darling brothers?" He questioned.
"Asssssskk ttheeem yourrrseeelllfff." Sam chocked out struggling for air. 'Come on Sam think how do you get out of this, oh what's every guys weakness.' Chase laughed moving his body closer to hers to get a better grip on her his movement giving Sam the perfect opportunity; she kicked him right in the legacy. Chase immediately let go, while Sam started coughing and feel to the ground. "HELP!" she shouted.
"They can't help you." Chase said darkly. "I like them feisty you'll be the perfect little wife and mother." He stated approaching her, eyes black as night. 'Whoa back up a second, wife and mother, hell no. It will never happen.' Sam thought.
Sam stood up, standing her ground protectively. "Go for it big man, I'll kill you." She stated. Chase shoot an energy ball at her which Sam caught and intensified, lightning and fire now circulating around it. She pitched it back at him, softball paying off for something. The door burst open as he was hit. "I'll never marry you." Sam said while he disappeared milla seconds before being hit.
Sam sighed quickly pulling the ball back at her before it had a chance to demolish the house she forced it to disappear. 'That could have been bad, horrible actually. Turning towards Sarah, "I take it that was Chase."
"Uh Huh."
"Lovely." Sam said walking out to the closet and pulling down a soccer bag. "I have to go. Don't wait up. I'm not coming back tonight after my watch." She finished, walking towards her dresser and grabbing clothes while Sarah and BQ looked on. "Well this is surprisingly easy." Sam muttered.
"It's not like we could stop you Sam." BQ answered, "You'd lay our asses out."
"You will be safe though right?" Sarah questioned. "And I am not telling those boys down stairs."
"As safe as I can be." Sam sighed, "I'll tell them. I want you two to stay on your guard. Maddie's been off a little lately, Seanie well he's just Seanie, Mililani is planning out everything for graduation in three weeks, and Liam well Liam is too obsessed with Kara."
"You noticed she was acting weird too. " Sarah said.
"Yeah, just be carefully alright and don't kick Kara out besides I really don't want to listen to Liam."
"We will be Sammy." BQ said hugging her.
"I'm a phone call away if for some reason things get to out of hand call me. And then do me a favor, please. Find out what you can about John Putnam."
"Isn't that the name on the grave in the very back of the graveyard? That's the one that power shot out of at you." BQ questioned.
"Yeah, that's the one." Sam replied checking her phone, one new text message.
Okay, I'll be waiting.
Quickly Sam throw her phone in here pocket. "Putnam." Sarah said. "I think I've heard that name before. I just can't remember where." Sarah sighed angrily sitting on Sam's bed.
"I'm not sure if it's connected to anything but its possible just like anything else. You guys should be safe besides any usually issues, I have a feeling the trouble will follow me." Sam stated.
"We'll look into it." Sarah promised. "What do I tell the guys about Chase?"
"The truth I guess." Sam replied.
"Yeah, that's not gonna fly over well." Sarah stated.
"So you go like this… HEY GUYS!" Sam yelled walking out towards the stair case bag and iPod in hand.
"What's up Sammy?" Pogue questioned.
"Well we kind of thought you might want to know Chase Collins is back and stronger than ever." Sam stated as though it were nothing again.
'Three, Two, One.' Sam thought, smiling at the end.
"WHAT!"
"Chase was just here as Kara in my room, blah blah blah… told me I was going to marry him and have his child…. More blah blah blah… he's stronger with powers from the source, which actually kind of pisses me off… oh and he tried to kill me… well that's it a think." Sam stopped and replayed the past events in her mind. "Yep that's it."
Almost instantly the living room of Sam's house turned into, what sounded like, a jungle. Each boy was involved in their own personal rant. Quietly Sam turned to Sarah "Now might be a good time for me to slip out don't you think."
"Yeah but be careful." Sarah whispered back hugging her before she ushered her out the door.
"Look after them for me." Sam said before hoping into her newly returned land rover.
"I will." Sarah replied as Sam drove off, "just please be careful Sammy. I have no idea what you're getting yourself into."
"She'll be back." Angel said from the deck appearing out of nowhere next to Sarah.
"Yeah I know, but will she be back in one piece?"
"That one is completely up to her." Angel answered as the reentered the house.
Inside the house the boys and Kate took it upon themselves to keep having a discussion without noticing Sarah and Sam's disappearance. Caleb was seeing red, the first time around with Chase was bad but now for the second he was after his younger sister.
"AND SAM IS NOT LEAVING OUR SIGHTS!" Caleb yelled.
"You're just a little late on that one Cal." Sarah stated finally drawing their attention to her.
"Where'd she go?" Tyler questioned.
"I don't know Ty, she left. Told a group of us earlier she was leaving and she'd check in when she got a chance. We have no idea where she went." Sarah replied glumly.
"Can't you track her?" Reid questioned.
"You can only track a slayer if she's willing to be tracked. That's the only reason you where able to track me besides the demon way but Sam mad sure all traces of her DNA are gone. She's not that stupid. We're just going to have to wait until she calls us… if she calls us." Sarah replied.
"WHAT! WE CAN'T JUST LET HER LEAVE!" Pogue yelled.
"Yes we can… and we have to. She'll come back, she always does. I have to go help BQ with the Orox for a little while. Why don't you guys try and catch some sleep. I'll leave my door unlocked in case you need me." Sarah replied, kissing Caleb goodnight and hugging everyone else before heading into the kitchen.
Sam sighed walking down yet another corridor, maybe this break was what she needed. Sure she'd miss graduation, but softball was all over. She had two months from next Friday to train.
"Flight 169 to California now boarding."
"Grabbing her pass and bag Sam headed towards the loading dock.
