We just looked at each other for a second. Then, Starla turned into Eros automatically and charged after him. Vladimir stood up and flicked his finger. An invisible force pushed her back.
"Vladimir!!" she hissed. She got up, but fell down immediately.
"Alex!" she yelled in pain. Her foot was twisted in a way that feet aren't meant to be twisted in. Jen put a shield around us and I ran up to Starla holding my hand against her foot. Vladimir broke the shield and twisted her other foot, which made Starla scream and clutch my hair. Her talons dug into my head and I winced in pain.
I healed her other foot and she got up, wobbling. I held her steady and summoned my Tonfa Blasters and blasted Vladimir so many times I couldn't count. I found him there holding Jen as a shield. I dropped my guns.
"Jen!" I yelled. I don't like telling people this, but Jen is my half-sister. I sort of...just shot her. It's a normal reaction when you shoot you family, no? I ran up to her, but Vladimir pushed me back. He looked at Jen with a cruel smile and was about to wrench her neck, but Jen turned into a lion and bit his hand. He yelled in pain.
Jen fell down as a human being. Or angel in technical words.
"What the hell are you doing?! What has she done?!" I yelled.
"Why should I answer that question? Now, its time for the little princess," Vladimir said, looking at Lucy.
No way in fucking hell will that happen. I rushed over to Lucy, and stepped in front of her.
Just in time too. Lucy wasn't hurt what so ever, but I felt something piercing through my chest.
A katana.
I pulled it out of my body and winced with pain.
"What the hell is wrong with you!?" Lucy screamed.
"I'm fine, idiot," I said as I fell down.
"No, you're not! You-" Lucy said as tears formed in her eyes.
"Idiot. Haven't you forgotten my healing powers? This will be over in a flash," I said. I raised my arm to my cut and started the flow of magic. I felt a little better, but I didn't have enough power to even sit up properly.
Before I knew it, Starla had Vladimir by the neck. He struggled and tried to wrench his way out, but Starla held him tighter. As soon as I knew it, he...
"He's gone," Starla said.
"The hell happened?" I said.
"Fools!" I heard him say. We looked around, but I couldn't find him anywhere.
"VLADIMIR!!!" Starla yelled with her banshee scream. We covered our ears.
"Stop it, Starla," Jen rasped. We looked at her.
"Jen!" we said altogether.
"We should have never attacked him," she said.
"Why? He was Vladimir," I said.
"But that wasn't him. That was a clone," Jen said, "This wasn't the same power I felt in Mrs. Rachmaninoff's house."
"But that means..." Lucy said.
"Yeah. The Vladimir you fought wasn't him. And the real one is stronger than this one," Jen said.
That was all I heard before I collapsed.

Chapter 27 ~ Jennifer
"So, what are these ninja costumes for, again?" I asked.
"We need to blend in the dark. Plus, ninjas are awesome," Alex said, passing us shurikens.
"He has a point there. Not the ninja part, but the blending in the dark," Lucy said, "Hey, where's Starla?"
"I'm invisible, idiots. Think harder next time," Starla's voice said. Everyone sweatdropped in their ninja costumes. Soon, only Alex was wearing a ninja costume.
Along with a a bloody mouth and black eye.
I decided that if Starla was invisible, I might as well change as well. I felt myself getting smaller and smaller until all of them were giant size.
"Here, Lucy. You can have my invisible cap. I had it for my 123rd birthday," Starla said. She gladly took it, but accidently dropped it. The cap landed over me and I was stuck inside.
"Help!" I squawked. Lucy quickly picked up the cap and looked at me. I had huge eyes, big talons, and beautiful gray and white feathers.
"You're...you're..." Lucy said.
"A barn owl. This is my transfiguartion powers. Didn't I explain to you about it?" I retorted as I flew up to her. Lucy looked like she was about to faint, Alex put on the invisible cap and she disappeared. Soon, there was a pool of blood on the ground. Alex picked her up.
"Man, this is not stealthy," he grumbled.
"We're not trying to be stealthy, we're trying to fucking attack Vladimir!" Starla said.
"Jesus, we'll be seen if you two won't be quiet!" I hooted.
"Huh?" someone's voice said. We all jumped, at least I knew me and Alex did.
"Oh, it's Lucy," Alex said.
"Yeah, its me. Why'm I bleeding?" she asked seeing blood fall what looked like...nowhere.
"Oh, forgot. Hold still," Alex said, holding his hand against her head. I heard something of a slight sigh, but I couldn't tell who it came from. Could be Alex, exasperated. Could be Lucy, satisfying or feeling better or something like that. Or Starla, who was probably...
I shouldn't say anything or she might hit me.
"There," Alex said, taking his hand off. I had no clue what it looked like, but I could see it wasn't bleeding anymore.
"Thanks," she said.
"Can we get going now?" Starla said. I couldn't see her facial expression. Hell, I couldn't see anyone's! But, whatever, I led the way through the palace. It was night time, probably around 9:30 European Time, since we bombed accidently bombed the White House...which reminds me.
"Starla, can you do a time reverse?" I hooted.
"Sure, for what?" she asked.
"The White House, smart one," I cooed.
"Oh, yeah," she said, sweatdropping. Once again, I couldn't see her, but I could hear her whispering the enchantment. I summoned a screen of the White House and everything was coming back to normal slowly and slowly. People were going backwards into the building and I saw the tracker/nuclear bomb slowly rise up.
I used my ice power to freeze the tracker and I saw it fall down, without an explosion. Just the way it should be. And now that the thing cooled down, it probably won't spontaneously combust again. Thank God for that.
"Let's see...we need to go this way!" I said, flying to the left. I was going to make another left after that, but I saw two guards walking up and down the aisle speaking fast in a British accent.
"Leave that to me," Alex said. He pulled out a contractable bow and arrow and aimed carefully. He skillfully shot two arrows in each of their necks and they fell down. Alex walked over and yanked out the arrows. Then, he wiped the blood on his ninja suit. We trampled/flew/walked our way there.
We flew down more hallways before Starla said, "Stop!" We all froze. Starla summoned some white powder (hopefull not an illegal substance) and blew it straight forward. Soon, lazers and wires were showing.
"Just as I smelled. The smell of electricity," Starla muttered.
"The switch is on the other side," Lucy said, pointing.
"Easy," I said, as I flew around, avoiding the security systems. I pushed a button with my beak and the lazers came off and the trip wires going back into the wall.
Without my owl abilities, Starla's dragon scence, and Alex's stealthiness, we would have never made it there to the final door.
"This is it. He's behind this door," I said. Starla tried to punch the wall, but it hardly made a dent. Alex got out his bazooka, but there wasn't even a scratch. Instead, some writing appeared and a tablet.
"I've been around for thousands of years, but I'm not even a month old. Who am I?" Alex read.
"Oh, shit. A riddle, I'm horrible at those," Starla said.
"Let's see...what's been around...month...?" Lucy rambled on.
"I'm officially stumped," I said.
"But...it must be something in...?" Lucy muttered.
"Lucy?" Alex asked. Lucy had walked up to the tablet. We all crowded over her and saw her write the word "moon". The door started to shake, but it didn't open. Another riddle appeared on the door.
"Lucy!" Starla said.
"Lovely and round, I shine with pale light, grown in the darkness, a lady's delight. What am I?" I hooted. Lucy stood there for a moment with her eyes closed. After a minute, they opened again and her fingers wrote the word "pearl". The door shook again and...well, you already know.
"If you take off my skin, I won't cry, but you. What am I?" Starla read. Lucy autimatically wrote "onion". The door shook again and rose up.
"Lucy, you did it!" I cheered. Lucy turned pink.
"It was nothing. My mom and dad always gave me riddles when I was young. I guess I still got some skill left," Lucy said sheepishly.
"That was great, though," Alex said.
"Thanks," Lucy said. Starla didn't say anything, though but hissed at a man straight across from us.
"Vladimir..." she muttered. The mad smiled cruelly.
"Welcome, children. Ready to play a game?" he asked.

Chapter 26 ~ Starla
After that rude interruption of Zach, I continued to explain the rest of the situation.
"Well, this is new," Jen said.
"What?" Alex asked.
"That, I don't know what this is," Jen said. Starla and I sweatdropped.
"It sort of explains it. You know, usually there's one guardian angel for everyone, but three...there must be some kind of precaution to go with her," Alex said.
"You have a point. There must be something in Lucy that we don't know about," I said, "Something that Headmaster and the rest of the council doesn't want us-anyone-to know."
"Jen! It's finished!" Lucy yelled.
"I got to go. We'll finish this up later," Jen said.
"I'll go with you. I can't stay in the room with Starla alone for more than five minutes," Alex said, following Jen.
"Bastard," I muttered as I followed them. No use staying here.
"This looks right," Jen said, examining the tracker. Lucy slapped her.
"The instructions were in fucking German! Hell, I had to get help from Mr. Cloud Guy!" Lucy said.
"Don't call me that," Zach said. That must be Zach in his human form.
"I'm sorry they were in German alright? It's a habit," Jen said.
"That's a strange habit," Zach said. Everyone nodded, but Jen who turned scarlet.
"Shut up," she said.
"Why can't we just relax until another wave of murders strike?" Lucy pointed out.
"Point," I said. And that's what we did.
For at least five seconds.
The alarm thingy went off and we all took some of Zach and made earmuffs out of them, including little microphones so we can talk. Which I found really gross.
"What the hell?!" Alex said.
"It's the tracker!" Jen said, "Lucy, what does it say?"
"Buckingham Palace!" Lucy exclaimed.
"Oh, fuck, now Kate and Willam are gonna get killed?!" I said.
"They will until Zach steps on it," Alex said.
"Not helping!" I yelled. The earphones went all staticky. I was about to take them off, but then I remembered the tracker has a banshee scream.
"Don't yell in the microphone," Lucy muttered.
"Zach, step on it!" Alex said.
"Um...if you haven't noticed yet, the tracker looks like its about to explode!" Lucy said. She had a point. If you lisstened over the banshee scream, you could hear a faint ticking noise.
That was growing faster and faster.
"Drop it!" Jen said. Alex quickly pushed through the puff and shoved it out of Zach.
"No, wait!" Lucy screamed. More static. Then, the tracker exploded. Little bits of it came flying everywhere in the sky, but most of it landed on...
"The White House!" I screamed. The static was longer, but you could hear people screaming and running for their lives. Man, this reminds me of the the time when the White House was burning down. Lucy ducked as a piece of debris sailed over her head.
Forget that, though. We just bombed the fucking White House.
"Serves you right, Obama!" Zach said. We became all silent.
"What? I was rooting for McCain," he replied. More silence.
"Just get to fucking England!" Alex said, "Oh, no offense if anyone is Brittish."
I sighed and fell into the leather seat. When will we ever get a break?
"Hey, look at the news," Jen said, turing the volume on the flat screen louder.
"...reported dead and their daughter Lucy Cross gone missing. Officials are still unsure about her whereabouts, ut there was no trail of evidence, but of this letter V hanging over the Mr. and Mrs. Cross's heads," the reporter said. Then, the TV showed "BREAKING NEWS" on it.
"Every politian is fearing for everyone's safety in the White House. Yes, the White House was bombed-" the man said, before Alex punched a hole in it.
"Hey! That hurt!" Zach said.
"What was that for?" I asked.
"I don't know. I couldn't control myself, I guess," Alex shrugged.
"So, the way to calm yourself down was punching a hole into a TV," Lucy said. Alex shrugged again. The idiot.
"Hey, we're here," Zach said. We all crowded around the window, Jen's face smashed into it. We saw Buckingham Palace.
And as I looked up, I saw a single dark feather falling from the sky.
"This looks right," Jen said, examining the tracker. Lucy slapped her.
"The instructions were in fucking German! Hell, I had to get help from Mr. Cloud Guy!" Lucy said.
"Don't call me that," Zach said. That must be Zach in his human form.
"I'm sorry they were in German alright? It's a habit," Jen said.

Chapter 25 ~ Lucy
"Jen!!" I said as I went up to hug her.
"Nice to see you're okay," Starla said with a smile, crossing her arms. Alex looked over and his eyes seemed to say 'Welcome Back'.
"I...I got some bad news though," Jen said and filled us in. All our smiles faded.
"Vladmir...kills people for power?" I asked.
"Yep. And its growing. Fast," Jen said.
"Now, what? We have no way of tracking thanks to Master Alex here," Starla said, which made Alex glare at her.
"I got a blood sample of him from Professor. We can use that. And let me do the work," Jen said, glaring at Alex too. Alex looked at me for help.
"Leave Alex alone. He helped Starla and I avenge my parents," I backed up.
"Starla, didn't you say you needed to tell me something? Jen, hurry up and fix it. C'mon, Starla," Alex said as he twisted her arm and pulled her into a different room.
"Lucy, can you do me a favor and fix this? I think those two alone could cause an early apocalypse. The instructions should be on my phone," Jen said as she walked over to the room Alex and Starla where in.
I looked on her phone and saw the instructions.
In German.
She probably took German when she was in school before. Times when I actually hate her more than Alex and Starla are now.
"Jen! I can't read German!" I said, but she closed the door and didn't here me.
"Hey," someone said. I saw a boy about my age.
"Who the fuck are you?!" I yelled, "And how did you get on?!"
"It's Zach. No need to yell," he said.
"But, I thought you where the cloud...that was driving...and why are you human..." I said, confused. I reached over and tried to touch him.
Zach smiled and said, "Don't worry. It's on autopilot. And I AM a cloud. I can take human form too. You see, part of me is this car and part of me is what you're seeing. I got bored so I decided to freak you out and stuff."
"It's getting harder for me to be 'freaked out' since everything in my world is messed up like hell," I said frustratingly.
"You need anything?" Zach asked.
"Didn't you hear me screaming, 'I can't read German!'?" I said.
"No. I was too busy listening to Train. Let me guess. Jen left you alone with something important that's only read in German. Figures. Jen and I were in German class together," Zach said, scratching his head.
"That's great! You can help me right?" I asked.
"Well, my German's sort of rusty. Jen uses it all the time and I haven't spoken it for a few hundred years. Plus, I really didn't pay attention much," Zach said, turning red.
"Fuck. Now what are we going to do?" I asked.
"'We'?" he said.
"Well, you're now a part of this," I said.
"Who said so?" he asked drinking a glass of champagne.
"Me," I said with a glare. Zach dropped the glass and shuddered. Huh. Looks that my glare can kill.
"Fine. As long as you don't kill me," he said, grabbing Jen's phone. And that's how we got almost finished.
"All we need now is the blood sample," Zach said.
"But, Jen has it," I said.
"Exactly. That's why you need to get in there and take it," Zach said.
"Why can't you?" I asked.
"Because, I helped you enough," Zach said.
"It'll be too noisy. The door creaks," I said.
"Then, I'll turn you into a cloud," Zach said. I widened my eyes.
"Relax. Only for a while. That way, you can become part of me and take the antidote by using my body," Zach explained.
"Fine. But, you better know how to change me back," I said. Zach smirked and said, "I always do." He touched my forehead. I felt one hundred pounds lighter, but still solid. I looked around and found Zach.
"Just melt into me," he said.
"That's fucking gross," I shuddered, but I melted into him and into the wall. I found the wall where the three angels where in. The blood tube was in her pocket, hanging out. I tried to reach for it, but almost fell off Zach (it still sounds gross).
I turned my hand into a claw and reached for it again. This time, Jen moved around so she was nearly sitting on it. Damn it. I can't get it without touching her ass and that will be...what's the word I'm looking for?
AWKWARD.
"Oh, I'm sitting on the blood sample," Jen said. She put it on the table. Yes!
"Thank God its not smashed," Alex said.
"As I was saying, Lucy turned into the freak monster," Starla said. I froze. I'm not an eavesdropper, really. But can you not listen when one of you friends talks about you?
"Everything died in her path and she killed Abel in one blow," Starla said. When did I do that? I got to focus. The tube. I need to get the tube-
"Then, she turned back to normal with no memory," Starla finished. No memory. Why didn't she tell me?
"Why didn't you tell me!?" I yelled. The whole room became silent.
Oops.
"Lucy? Is that you?" Alex asked. Please. Please. Please believe it was the wind.
"Maybe it was the wind?" Starla said.
"Or maybe it's this weird arm sticking out trying to take the tube," Jen said, taking the tube away from me. I almost whined, but then remembered to stay silent.
"Lucy?" Alex asked, reaching out to touch the arm.
"Gotcha!" I heard someone say.
"Zach?" Starla asked.
"Duh! It's obviously a trick. You morons fell for it!" Zach said happily.
"Don't do it again or I'll rip the fluff off you neck," Jen said, "Lucy can't know about this."
"Ditto," Zach said, "BTW: I need the vial to finish the tracker. I'm helping Lucy finish it and she asked me to get it for her. And you just had to get the German instructions did you?"
"Sorry," Jen said, turning red. She handed the antidote to Zach and we got out of there. Then, I felt a sharp pain on my ass.
"What was that for?" I screamed.
"For blowing your damn cover. Now let's get this done with," Zach said with another slap.
"You can stop slapping my ass now," I muttered.
"Nice to see you're okay," Starla said with a smile, crossing her arms. Alex looked over and his eyes seemed to say 'Welcome Back'.
"I...I got some bad news though," Jen said and filled us in. All our smiles faded.
"Vladmir...kills people for power?" I asked.
"Yep. And its growing. Fast," Jen said.

"No. I was too busy listening to Train. Let me guess. Jen left you alone with something important that's only read in German. Figures. Jen and I were in German class together," Zach said, scratching his head.
"That's great! You can help me right?" I asked.
"Well, my German's sort of rusty. Jen uses it all the time and I haven't spoken it for a few hundred years. Plus, I really didn't pay attention much," Zach said, turning red.
"Fuck. Now what are we going to do?" I asked.
"'We'?" he said.
"Well, you're now a part of this," I said.
"Who said so?" he asked drinking a glass of champagne.
"Me," I said with a glare. Zach dropped the glass and shuddered. Huh. Looks that my glare can kill.
"Fine. As long as you don't kill me," he said, grabbing Jen's phone. And that's how we got almost finished.
"All we need now is the blood sample," Zach said.
"But, Jen has it," I said.
"Exactly. That's why you need to get in there and take it," Zach said.
"Why can't you?" I asked.
"Because, I helped you enough," Zach said.
"It'll be too noisy. The door creaks," I said.
"Then, I'll turn you into a cloud," Zach said. I widened my eyes.
"Relax. Only for a while. That way, you can become part of me and take the antidote by using my body," Zach explained.
"Fine. But, you better know how to change me back," I said. Zach smirked and said, "I always do." He touched my forehead. I felt one hundred pounds lighter, but still solid. I looked around and found Zach.
"Just melt into me," he said.
"That's fucking gross," I shuddered, but I melted into him and into the wall. I found the wall where the three angels where in. The blood tube was in her pocket, hanging out. I tried to reach for it, but almost fell off Zach (it still sounds gross).
I turned my hand into a claw and reached for it again. This time, Jen moved around so she was nearly sitting on it. Damn it. I can't get it without touching her ass and that will be...what's the word I'm looking for?
AWKWARD.
"Oh, I'm sitting on the blood sample," Jen said. She put it on the table. Yes!
"Thank God its not smashed," Alex said.
"As I was saying, Lucy turned into the freak monster," Starla said. I froze. I'm not an eavesdropper, really. But can you not listen when one of you friends talks about you?
"Everything died in her path and she killed Abel in one blow," Starla said. When did I do that? I got to focus. The tube. I need to get the tube-
"Then, she turned back to normal with no memory," Starla finished. No memory. Why didn't she tell me?
"Why didn't you tell me!?" I yelled. The whole room became silent.
Oops.
"Lucy? Is that you?" Alex asked. Please. Please. Please believe it was the wind.
"Maybe it was the wind?" Starla said.
"Or maybe it's this weird arm sticking out trying to take the tube," Jen said, taking the tube away from me. I almost whined, but then remembered to stay silent.
"Lucy?" Alex asked, reaching out to touch the arm.
"Gotcha!" I heard someone say.
"Zach?" Starla asked.
"Duh! It's obviously a trick. You morons fell for it!" Zach said happily.
"Don't do it again or I'll rip the fluff off you neck," Jen said, "Lucy can't know about this."
"Ditto," Zach said, "BTW: I need the vial to finish the tracker. I'm helping Lucy finish it and she asked me to get it for her. And you just had to get the German instructions did you?"
"Sorry," Jen said, turning red. She handed the antidote to Zach and we got out of there. Then, I felt a sharp pain on my ass.
"What was that for?" I screamed.
"For blowing your damn cover. Now let's get this done with," Zach said with another slap.
"You can stop slapping my ass now," I muttered.

Chapter 24 ~ Alex
"Shit...where are they?" I wondered to myself. The GPS sort of hates me and even though I've been following it for almost an hour, I still haven't found them. And just when I think I was getting close, it just has to die on me.
C'mon. Laugh. Laugh at how all electronics hate me. Then, my phone rang.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Alex? Where the fuck are you?" Starla said.
"In the redwoods, but the GPS hates me so it doesn't work And worst of all it died, so now I'm stuck in this fucking tree praying the signal doesn't die! Does that explain the shitty question?!" I yelled.
"Of course it does!" Starla said sarcastically, "Just tell us which tree you're on and of course we WON'T FUCKING FIND YOU!" Then, a bunch of static until I heard Lucy.
"Alex?" she asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Sorry. Starla's just mad. It's all my fault. I hurt my damn ankle and Starla was helping me up. After that, Starla and I flying to the landline until I saw a tree branch. I was yelling 'Duck! Duck!' and then Starla had to fly upward and say 'Where?' and then her wing got fucking busted and we're now trapped here," Lucy explained.
"Fine. This will be impossible to do, but I'll try and find you, okay?" I offered.
"Okay, just hurry up before she becomes Eros and tries to eat me," Lucy said as she hung up. I looked at my phone and remembered that there's a GPS on there! If all goes well, I can transport Angel Data on my phone and track them down.
Then again, usually all my experiments backfire. What was supposed to be Vladimir became that Abel dude. Who knows what might go wrong. Maybe my phone will turn into a nuclear reactor and destroy the whole Redwood National Park.
I'm just saying.
I undid the wires inside the GPS and sort of shoved them in the charging plug on my phone. I waited and...
My phone screen blacked out.
"Fuck!" I cursed, but then heard an entrance fanfare coming from the GPS.
The GPS must have taken the battery from my phone and used it to charge itself. So...it cancels out, right?
When the GPS turned on, it said a bunch of instructions, which I didn't listen to in the beginning. But one part caught me.
"When navigating yourself to find the angel, you must NOT follow the arrow but go the opposite direction, as if you were flying an airplane," the soothing voice saying all the instructions said.
So this is why listening to directions is important. Kids, listen up, always listen and follow directions or you may get yourself stuck in a national park lost with an I-don't-know-how-it-works GPS.
After five minutes I found them sitting at the landline, playing Angry Birds on an iPod touch.
"Yo," I said.
"Alex!" Lucy said as she ran up to hug me, Starla pushed her out of the way and punched me in the face.
"Really! It took you that long to find us?!" Starla asked.
"Yep. Now let me see that wing of yours," I said. Starla sighed, but pointed to the wing that was bent.
"Ouch," I muttered as I examined the damage. Her wing was bent pretty badly.
"So, now what Doctor," Starla asked.
"We'll need to get this wing amputated," I said.
"WHAT!?!" Starla yelled.
"Of course not, idiot. Now sit down. I'll fix that wing. Let me check Lucy," I said.
"And after Lucy, you may need to check your face!" Starla said, growling. Lucy held her back and sat down closer to me. I looked at it.
"You twisted this badly. Luckily, I can fix this instantly," I said. I placed my palms around her ankle and concentrated my energy on her ankle. Lucy winced, but that's natural. This is probably the first time magic has coursed through her body. Then, I let go.
"There, now try moving it," I said. Lucy cautiously turned her ankle.
"It doesn't hurt! Thank you so much!" Lucy said, as she gave me a hug. I pushed her back. I'm not much of a hugger.
"Starla, this is going to hurt, okay? It'll hurt to fly for a while," I said. I summoned a wing brace and some gloves. First, I numbed the wing and then bent the wing back in place. I used my magical energy to seal the bones inside and then put the brace on.
"Done. And I was nice enough to numb the pain for you, even though you don't deserve it Nightwalker," I said. Starla passed away that remark which is I guess her way of saying thank you.
"Now, let's go. I'll get Zach for us," I said.
C'mon. Laugh. Laugh at how all electronics hate me. Then, my phone rang.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Alex? Where the fuck are you?" Starla said.
"In the redwoods, but the GPS hates me so it doesn't work And worst of all it died, so now I'm stuck in this fucking tree praying the signal doesn't die! Does that explain the shitty question?!" I yelled.

Chapter 23 ~ Jennifer
"Whoa," I said. Dead Rachmaninoff mommy. Scary.
"Now what? We have no way of knowing goals or weaknesses, unless you want to travel to the Dark Side," Alex said.
"Dark Side should be our last plan. There has to be some other ways we can find more information on Vladimir Rachmaninoff," I said.
"I know someone," said one of the exterminators. Alex and I turned to look at him.
"My friend Louie has been researching Vladimir Rachmaninoff all his life. He should know some stuff," the exterminator said. We looked at each other, thanked the man, and then hopped onto a cloud.
"You know Louie Thomas? Take us there ASAP," Alex said.
"Sure, but it will take a while," the cloud said.
"We'll pay double the grease," Alex said. The cloud nodded and started to drive. My cellphone rang.
"Hold on, I have to take this," I said as I typed in the code to enter my iPhone.
"Jen!" Starla said.
"Starla? Where are you?" I asked.
"In California! Near the redwoods! We had a mix-up with one of Vladimir's lackeys. Lucy beat him up and we-"
"Lucy beat him up?" I asked questionably.
"Don't interrupt!" Starla said, "Anyway, we're...I don't know. My cell died so we had to use this stupid landline. Just use the GPS!" Then, the thing was cut off.
"Lucy beat up, who?" Alex asked.
"One of Vladimir's workers. Listen, you have to find them," I said as I passed him the GPS.
"Why me? I always do man work," Alex whined.
"That's because you're a man. They're somewhere in California, near the redwood trees," I said.
"Trees look the same," Alex pointed out.
"This one has red...wood?"
"Shut up. Fine, I'll find them. But you owe me something...like...a penguin!"
"A penguin?" I asked.
"A penguin!" Alex said as he flew off the cloud.
Fucking idiot.
"Now what? We have no way of knowing goals or weaknesses, unless you want to travel to the Dark Side," Alex said.
"Dark Side should be our last plan. There has to be some other ways we can find more information on Vladimir Rachmaninoff," I said.

"Mr. Thomas?" I asked knocking on the door. A tall man opened the door with a beard. He was holding a mug of coffee.
"It's Dr. Thomas for you," he said.
"Sorry, sir, to interrupt. But, may I please come in? I have important business with you," I asked. Dr. Thomas nodded and I walked in. I sat down at the coffee table.
"What do you need?" Dr. Thomas asked.
"I need some information on Vladimir Rachmaninoff," I whispered silently.
"I see. This is about the attacks. Come in my study," he whispered. He got a cup of coffee and then beckoned me to follow him into a wall.
"Um...sir?" I asked with a whisper, but Dr. Thomas signaled me to be quiet. Then, he pressed the wall really fast at random to me. Then, the wall tore apart into a secret study.
"Here is all the work I've done on Vladimir," Dr. Thomas whispered proudly.
"Why are we whispering?" I whispered.
"Because we are. Anyway, the folders are alphabetized so you'll be able to find info in a flash. It has the same technology as the archives," Dr. Thomas whispered. I nodded and thanked him. I then rushed to the W's. I took out the Weaknesses folder and plugged the card into my phone.
What it read was "Weaknesses: Unknown".
"Dr. Thomas?" I asked, not in a whisper. Dr. Thomas walked next to me.
"Unknown weaknesses?" I asked, gulping inside my head.
"Oh, yes. At his rate, no one had any chance of recording it. He'd strangle them before it happened. His mom might have been the only one to know, but she was a special case. I'm researching that right now, but it will take a while until I get solid proof," Dr. Thomas said.
"Shit," I muttered. This is a hell of a mess.
I wandered over to the G's and then pulled open the "Goals" folder. I plugged the card into my phone. At least this one wasn't unknown.
"Goals," I read out loud, "Vladimir's main goal is to achieve immortality and become the highest dark angel in time. So far, this hasn't happened, but because of a recent incident in the Cross household, Vladimir might have achieved his immortality." He hasn't yet. I mean he hasn't reached his full power!
But I pray to God that he'll never make his dream, or nightmare, come true.
"Sorry, sir, to interrupt. But, may I please come in? I have important business with you," I asked. Dr. Thomas nodded and I walked in. I sat down at the coffee table.
"What do you need?" Dr. Thomas asked.
"I need some information on Vladimir Rachmaninoff," I whispered silently.

Chapter 22 ~ Starla
I opened my eyes, slowly.
"HOLY-" I yelled. I was in a cage next to Lucy. What the fuck is going on? How did we get here? And more importantly-
Oh. Fuck.
"Lucy, wake up!" I yelled. She punched me in the face again.
"Stop with the damn punching!" I yelled, holding me nose and praying I don't have a nose bleed.
"When did you get here?" I asked.
"I was going to ask you that. But first of all, WHY DID YOU DROP ME!?!?!?" Lucy screamed.
"Wait. When did I-" I asked and then I remembered.
"Yeah! When you dropped me from probably a shitty 7 stories hight! It's a miracle I didn't die! I might have ruptured my ear drum too!" Lucy yelled.
"Well, sorry. That's what happens if you were going about 130 miles an hour," I said.
"WHAT?! BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!" Lucy screamed. I was about to break her arm until someone said, "SILENCE!!!"
"And who the fuck are you?" Lucy said angrily. Hey, wait. Why does he look familiar...?
"Is that how you greet the right hand man of Vladimir? And that the right hand man killed your shitty parents?" he said.
"Wait? YOU'RE the KILLER?!" Lucy screamed, "I'm going to kick your-"
"Let me explain. Vladimir killed you parents for a reason. They gave birth to a Child of Misfortune. The world doesn't want another! They were so dirty that the almighty Vladimir wouldn't put his hands on their heads," he said.
"Hey! Now I know who you are! You're Abel Kichiki! You're such a cheap person that you'll do anything for money! I bet you don't even want to work for that bastard, but you need the money! You fail!!!" I said.
"So this guy killed my parents...for money!?!?!" Lucy screamed in rage. I haven't seen her this angry. I mean, her face was red. She punched the cage and a dent came through that.
"Lucy, calm down!" I said trying to hold her arm. She turned around and I saw that her skin was black and her eyes white. Scarier than Eros. A mask grew over her face and her hands and feet became claw like. I saw fangs coming out and her mouth was dripping with blood. She swiped the cage and the cage broke in half. I let go of her arm and looked at my hand.
It was burned.
Lucy, or should I see the demonic person in place of Lucy, roared. Everywhere she went, plants died and animals where dead meat...bad choice of words...wait...you know what, I don't know.
Anyway, she looked like a demonic hulk...but evil and stuff... You, know what, I should just say what happened. Imagine what she looks like. Think of a devil's spawn.
Lucy grabbed Abel by the throat. He winced and tried to make her let go of her. He got his knife and cut her hand, which instantly regenerated.
"Where's Vladimir?" Lucy roared. It sounded like three Lucy's were talking at once. Abel pointed over the side. Lucy threw Abel over to the side and turned back to normal and passed out. I ran over to her.
"Lucy?" I asked. Lucy punched me and opened my eyes. I clasped my eye.
"Again?! With the punches!" I yelled.
"Huh? Why are we out of the cage?" Lucy asked.
"Wait, you don't remember?" I asked.
"What do you mean remember? Hey! Why are all the trees dead?" Lucy asked. I was stunned. She had no memory of the recent event. Should I tell her? Should I leave it be?
"Nothing. Playing tricks on you. Let's go," I said, shaking my head in confusion. I took her hand and flew off, slowly (I bet Lucy's happy right now) One question laid in my head.
What is Lucy?
"Hey! Now I know who you are! You're Abel Kichiki! You're such a cheap person that you'll do anything for money! I bet you don't even want to work for that bastard, but you need the money! You fail!!!" I said.

Chapter 21 ~ Lucy
Look, Nathaniel! Lucy's taking her first steps!" Mom cried. I walked into her arms laughing. Then, as soon as I was about to reach into her arms, Dad picked me up.
"Oh, Lucy...Lucy...Lucy..."
"LUCY!!!" Starla yelled. I woke up and punched her in the face. She shrieked and fell backwards.
"Starla! Oh, my God, I'm so sorry!" I yelled. Starla rubbed her cheek. That's a reflex. Now what, is she going to go Eros on me now?
"It's okay," Starla sighed.
"Hey! No fighting inside me!" Zach said. We both mumbled an apology.
"So, what's up?" Starla asked.
"More flashbacks of Mom and Dad," I said.
"Once again, I'm so sorry," Starla pouted. I sighed. Suddenly, an alarm rang.
"WHAT'S THAT NOISE?!" I yelled.
"IT'S SOMETHING ALEX INSTALLED!!! VLADIMIR STRUCK AGAIN!! HANG ON!" Zach said. We covered our ears as Zach drove (?) us to what seemed to be in the Redwood forest.
"Here! Now hold on!" Zach screamed.
"Wait, what do you mean by-" I asked, but then our seats jumped off the limo and then (since it was cloud) shaped into a parachute. Starla, on the other hand, jumped off her seat and flew.
"No fair! I was scared to death!" I said.
"Pays when you're an angel," Starla said as she smirked.
"You want another punch?" I growled, until Starla smelled something.
"Blood," she said and she took me by the hand and started to fly.
"Wait! Slow down!" I yelled as she flew upwards and above the redwood trees. I was clasping to her hand as if it was the most important thing in the world as she flew at full speed. I barely hung on as she made a tight turn. Soon, she flew to the left and I was blown off.
"STARLA!!!" I screamed, but as she turned around, I was gone and falling.
"LUCY!!! WHERE ARE YOU!!!" she yelled, but I could barely hear her. My head was spinning as I fell to the forest floor. I must have ruptured an ear drum. The only thing I had left was Starla's cell phone. I turned it on and then passcode was on.
Passcode? I didn't think Starla was smart enough to remember her password. 4 numbers. That's all I needed. Birthdate? Um...um...oh yeah! I pressed the numbers 1211.
Wrong.
That's when I started freaking out. 1111. Nope. 1112. Nope. 1113. Nope. One more try. Oh, shit. Um...what's Jen's birthday? 0212. I wondered if this is how she remembers Jen's birthday.
Ding. Ding. Ding! I went to the phone and opened up her contacts. I couldn't call Starla because it was her phone. How about...Jen! I went to press her number, but then the screen went black.
Fuck. Battery's dead.
Now what, I paced along the forest floor. I remember what my mom told me once. Stay where you are and we'll find you. And if possible, hug a tree. I went to the nearest redwood tree and did my best to wrap around the fat truck.
"Oh, Lucy...Lucy...Lucy..."
"LUCY!!!" Starla yelled. I woke up and punched her in the face. She shrieked and fell backwards.
"Starla! Oh, my God, I'm so sorry!" I yelled. Starla rubbed her cheek. That's a reflex. Now what, is she going to go Eros on me now?
"It's okay," Starla sighed.
"Hey! No fighting inside me!" Zach said. We both mumbled an apology.

"Wait! Slow down!" I yelled as she flew upwards and above the redwood trees. I was clasping to her hand as if it was the most important thing in the world as she flew at full speed. I barely hung on as she made a tight turn. Soon, she flew to the left and I was blown off.
"STARLA!!!" I screamed, but as she turned around, I was gone and falling.
"LUCY!!! WHERE ARE YOU!!!" she yelled, but I could barely hear her. My head was spinning as I fell to the forest floor. I must have ruptured an ear drum. The only thing I had left was Starla's cell phone. I turned it on and then passcode was on.
Passcode? I didn't think Starla was smart enough to remember her password. 4 numbers. That's all I needed. Birthdate? Um...um...oh yeah! I pressed the numbers 1211.
Wrong.
That's when I started freaking out. 1111. Nope. 1112. Nope. 1113. Nope. One more try. Oh, shit. Um...what's Jen's birthday? 0212. I wondered if this is how she remembers Jen's birthday.
Ding. Ding. Ding! I went to the phone and opened up her contacts. I couldn't call Starla because it was her phone. How about...Jen! I went to press her number, but then the screen went black.
Fuck. Battery's dead.
Now what, I paced along the forest floor. I remember what my mom told me once. Stay where you are and we'll find you. And if possible, hug a tree. I went to the nearest redwood tree and did my best to wrap around the fat truck.
x.X.x
"She still hasn't found me? What happened?" I asked. I was starting to get worried. I've been hugging this tree for almost two hours and no one has been here. Starla, where are you?
I took my sore hands off the trunk (yes, I held the damn thing for about 2 hours) and called her name.
"STARLA!!!" I screamed. I walked around and after about five minutes, a cage came over me.
Damn it! I was trapped.

Chapter 20 ~ Alex
Author's Note: Please everyone tell people about my blog. Plus give me some feedback by putting some comments. I'd appreciate if you'd also follow my blog, but for now here's chapter 20.
"Let's get out of here now. Quick, before the police come," Starla said. Lucy nodded and wiped her eyes. I sighed. Vladimir struck again. Jen muttered something.
"Jen, what's wrong?" I asked. Jen looked at me and I saw a worried look on her face.
"It's...just...dreams..." Jen said.
"Dreams as in scary dreams or dreams related to this thing," I asked. Jen pointed a shaking hand to the door. I nodded.
"You have to tell us. When you're ready, okay?" I asked. Jen nodded quickly.
"Hey, I'm coming with you," someone said. I turned around and saw Krystal, looking worried as well.
"Krystal, you have to stay here and watch your boyfriend," Lucy sniffled. Krystal sighed.
"I'll keep you guys updated on what's going on. I have Lucy's phone number anyway," Krystal said sadly. Lucy looked at her. Then she ran up to her and gave her a tight hug.
"I'll miss you," Lucy said. Krystal smiled and hugged her back.
"Let's get going," Starla said, "Lucy, I have a special way of traveling for you so, Alex, don't worry about carrying her." I sighed in relief.
"But you'll have to carry her for a while," Starla said.
Fuck.
"Meet Zach, a friend of mine," Starla said. Lucy looked at her.
"Where is he?" Lucy asked.
"It's the cloud," someone said. The cloud changed into a human shape.
"I'm Zach, traveling cloud and friend of Starla's," Zach said. Lucy stared.
"Clouds? Angels? What else? Flying horses?" Lucy yelled to the sky.
"Actually, flying horses really exist you-" Jen started, before she caught Lucy's glare. Damn, that glare is piercing.
"Climb in," Zach said, changing into a limo, "I won't bite. Hell, I don't have fucking teeth, I'm a cloud." Starla climbed in automatically and Jen went in right after. Lucy looked at me.
"Ladies first," I said.
"What, you scared?" I asked.
"Hell no. Jen is always talking about me being a gentleman," I said. Lucy smirked, but hopped in. I climbed in afterwards.
Zach, the cloud limo, was awesome, for a cloud limo. It was probably the biggest and most comfortable you can get with limos. Somehow, the cloud got us some beds to fit inside and personal TVs. Included with that is a nice bathroom with a shower and a Xbox 360 for us. Radio stations all around the world, kitchens, and some wonderful prepared food for us.
"Nice," I said. Then, some food appeared at the table. Bacon and eggs and pancakes.
"Breakfast's served," Zach said. Lucy picked at her pancakes. Starla and I shoved egg in our mouths and Jen put a helping of bacon on her plate.
"Now let's talk serious," I said. Lucy looked up.
"I was thinking we go look up things on the Angel Archive," I proclaimed. Now Starla and Jen looked up.
"We can't do that. Lucy can't come," Jen said.
"Jen, you and me can go to the archives. Starla and Lucy can use my laptop to see if anymore casualties have happened and investigate," I said.
"But, first...I wanna tell people about my dream," Jen said as she explained what happened. Oh, fucking hell.
"Vladimir better rot in hell after we're done with this damn mess," Lucy said.
"Let's get out of here now. Quick, before the police come," Starla said. Lucy nodded and wiped her eyes. I sighed. Vladimir struck again. Jen muttered something.
"Jen, what's wrong?" I asked. Jen looked at me and I saw a worried look on her face.

x.X.x.
After we had entrance to the Angel Archives, we ran straight in the R aisles.
"Rachmaninoff," Jen muttered. I looked at the beginning and started to look through cabinets. Jen did the same.
"He can't be too far off, right?" I said until Jen pulled out the folder of Rachmaninoff.
"Thank God Starla isn't here. She would have been stupid and looked farther on," I said.
"Thank God Starla isn't here. No more bickering for now," Jen sighed. I took the folder from her hands and laid out the card. I walked to the nearest computer and plugged in the card. For all you new timers, the archives couldn't hold all the files in these folders, so they scanned the files into an electronic holding card, like a flash drive. Plug it in the computer and then you got all the info on whatever.
"This is shitty hell," I said.
"No kidding," Jen replied, "Anyway, this has way more information than the online encyclopedia. And check this out his brother Sergei was born a light angel and Vladimir was born dark. That means-"
"-one of his parents must have been light and the other dark." I finished. Jen nodded. Rare how those two fell in love. Wonder how.
And also whoever the light angel was is fucked up.
"Anyway, Sergei is a light angel and his specialty was music. Vladimir had a specialty as a strangler. It says in his childhood he was friends with his brother and also played piano. He was good until his brother became more famous. Vladimir became jealous, strangled Sergei's girlfriend, and then ran into the darkness. Then...well, you know the rest." Jen interpreted.
"Is there anyone we could talk to that's close to him?" I asked.
"Other than the Darkness? There's not many, but I think his mom is alive. His mom is the light angel," Jen said. I ran out the door and flew up to a cloud.
"Mrs. Rachmaninoff," I said. Then, my phone rang. Fuck. I picked it up.
"Idiot! You left me!" Jen yelled.
"Keep researching. I'll find out some info," I said. I hung up and then looked ahead.
"Here," the cloud said. I gave it a tip (extra fluff) and then ran inside.
"Ma'am?" I asked. I walked around on the creaky floor. I summoned my knife, just in case. I opened the bathroom to take a piss and then gasped. There was a dead woman in the bathtub and a bloody V carved on her forehead.
Looks like her son got to her first. I took away my knife, in case someone thought I was the killer and sighed. Then, I took out my angel contacting device and called Headmaster.
"HELLO?" Headmaster yelled in a deafening voice. His nose was all I could see. I almost dropped the thingy.
"Um...you don't have to scream," I said, "It's Alex. Alex Hagane?"
"Oh, go ahead," Headmaster said.
"Take a look. I was just here to meet Mrs. Rachmaninoff," I said holding the communicator over her.
"Oh, that's not good," Headmaster said. I sighed.
"I took some pictures and some fingerprints. I need to head back in the archives to do some research. Can you send some backup?" I asked.
"Of course," Headmaster said as he hung up. I looked back to the V.
Fuck.

Chapter 19 ~ Jennifer
"Dude, I can't take school anymore," Starla said to me on a Thursday afternoon. I looked at her.
"You know, what's more important? Lucy, or your sanity...oh, wait, that's kind of the same..." I said.
"Hey, check this out!" Alex said, as he took out his laptop. We walked over there and crouched over the screen, along with Lucy.
"Remember how Lucy was talking about seeing that stranger that looked like a strangler and had blood on his hands and stuff?" Alex asked. We nodded. Lucy shivered.
"I looked him up on the LD Encyclopedia (BTW: LD stands for Light and Dark) and this came up," Alex pointed to the screen.
"Vladimir Rachmaninov," Starla said, "Dark Angel. Status is dead. Was in prison due to killing thousands of people, mainly from strangling. Alive from 1134-1297."
"They obviously need to update this," Lucy mumbled, "Jerks."
"But, if he's dead, why is he alive?" I asked.
"See, that's the problem. He's not supposed to be fucking alive," Alex said, "But he is."
"Whatever the reason is there's another problem. How come I can see him and you can't? I'm not even an angel!" Lucy asked.
"Another problem," Alex pointed out.
"So let me get this to the point," Starla said, "There's a fucking strangler who's supposed to be dead on the loose and only Lucy can see him and we're out of ice cream."
"Ice cream?" I asked.
"I ate the last of the ice cream we bought Monday," Starla explained.
"Forget ice cream. Focus!" I said.
"Well, what can we do?" Starla said, "But one thing we can do is buy ice cream."
"He hasn't really been a threat. Maybe Lucy was hallucinating," Alex suggested.
"I wish it were that, but it seems that I could hear his breath and see the blood dripping on his hands on the sidewalk afterwards," Lucy said, disappointingly.
"Blood or not, we shouldn't worry. He hasn't been a threat," Alex said.
"Not true. We should worry. What happens if something happens to Lucy or one of us or worst of all...something happened to me?!" Starla said.
"Let's just stay calm and not worry for now. If something bad happens, we can start to get serious. Warn us when you see something, okay Lucy?" I said. Lucy nodded worriedly.
But we're all worried.
"You know, what's more important? Lucy, or your sanity...oh, wait, that's kind of the same..." I said.
"Hey, check this out!" Alex said, as he took out his laptop. We walked over there and crouched over the screen, along with Lucy.

But we're all worried.
o.O.o.
"It's nice to know that school is finally over!" Starla said, sighing on her blankets. I was relived too. Alex took out his bow and arrow and began to polish the black bow. It was night time and thankfully, there was no sign of Vladimir. I put down my head and began to sleep.
When I sleep, I always think of four categories. The first one is "Happy". It's like you won the lottery or find your lost dog or something. The second is "Crazy". Crazy as in you walk in to a building with no pants on and your teacher is a fluffy rabbit or something. The third is "Nightmare". This is like you're being sold away as a slave captive. The fourth is "Future". Events that happen in the future.
But whatever the reason was my dream decided to go down road three or four...
Blood. Blood everywhere. The scent of blood reeked in the room and fallen humans everywhere. Vladimir's face looked around for more victims. He ran through the corridors and found a lost baby. He cackled and took him by the neck. He twisted harder and wider until the baby's face became a pale blue. Then, he stomped on it. The smell of blood was everywhere. He greedily drank.
"Finally," he whispered, "I AM IN FULL POWER!!!" Then, everything became black.
I woke up sweating my palms off. I looked around and saw Lucy, Alex, and Starla looking worried.
"You're late. There's some bad news," Alex said, pointing in the kitchen. Lucy was sobbing silently in her pillow. Starla was trying to comfort her. I walked down the stairs and into the hall.
Blood.
I rushed into the hall and found two adults dead on the floor, the woman's ribs sticking out and the man's head turned in a way heads should NOT be turned in.
And worst of all they were Lucy's parents. Then, I looked above them and on the bloodstained wall and saw something worse.
The letter V was carved in the wall.

Chapter 18 ~ Starla
Mt. Lebanon High School, eh? Doesn't seem like my type. I walked into the big building and tried to get to my locker, thankfully next to Alex, Jen, and Lucy's locker.
"So, how do you like the school so far?" Lucy asked.
"It's crowded!" I said. The student's were walking down the hallways like they were a stampede of buffalo. I looked around for the classroom and straightened my skirt. Then, I walked in. A bell sound rang over my head.
"Just in time," the teacher said, "Class, meet Starla el Bridget." I bowed like I usually do. "Starla, you can take a seat, over there." I walked down the aisle and realized that the boys were staring at me. The girls were all jealous looking. I took my seat.
Do I really have to relive school? The first time was painful.
One boy said, "Hi," and took my hand. It was cold and very...wrong. I pushed it away.
"Don't touch me!" I said. The class was taken aback. I took my seat and sighed. What the hell was in my backpack. Pencils. Notebook paper. Pens. What about what we use at Heaven's school? Calligraphy pens with pure Indian ink always writing on pretty white paper is more today.
"I'm sorry, Starla, but there's a test today. Would you like to take it now?" the teacher, Miss Vi, said. I shrugged and then said yes. I got the test from her and took it.
"Thank God school is over," Alex said on the way home.
"I can't bear it. I have to relive fucking prison," I sighed.
"It wasn't as bad though," Jen said.
"Come on, idiots. Cheer up!" Lucy said.
"By the way, Starla. Looks like you have a new nickname in the school. 'The Untouchable Queen'," Alex said, "But you'll always be my little Nightwalker." I was ready to rip his tongue off, but Jen and Lucy pushed me back.
"The Untouchable Queen? Where did you get that?" Jen said.
"Every boy in the school is always talking about you. It's like you're a celebrity. But why 'untouchable'," Lucy asked.
It may have something to do with pushing off anyone who touches me, cussing, acting like everyone's a nobody compared to me, and lies saying I come from New York and my mom is a famous model in Times Square. No use saying that though.
"Never mind that," I grumbled.
"Um...guys?" Lucy said. I turned around. I saw nothing.
"What?" I asked. Lucy looked seriously scared.
"If you don't see that, I swear to God I will murder you all if I live," Lucy said.
"WHAT?!" we all yelled.
"There was a guy who looked like he was a strangler or something and his hands were big and rough and caked with blood and..." Lucy said.
"Dude, you're probably hallucinating," Jen said. Lucy looked pained, but said she probably was.
Or was she?
Author's Note: Sorry for really short chapter. I won't be active for next to weeks due to a bunch of camps and stuff. I know, its crap, but its already been paid for and ARGH. Anyway, hope you enjoy.

Chapter 17 ~ Lucy
"Mom! I'm home!" I said as I ran into the kitchen.
"Whoa!" she said. I whizzed passed her and into my room. I saw the three still there.
After the run-in at the park, Starla and I rushed inside, Starla being invisible. Mom and Dad yelled at me for coming home so late, I quickly said an apology and they forgave me. Alex came in breathless on the balcony and Jen woke up soon after, probably from hearing a string of cuss words coming from their mouths. Then, I woke up today, left for school, and now I'm here.
"Finally," Alex said, with his mouth stuffed with marshmallows.
"You took forever. How long is your school time?" Starla said, with her mouth also stuffed with marshmallows. I looked at Jen.
"They're trying to see how many marshmallows they can fit in their mouth," Jen explained. I nodded.
"Fourteen," Alex said, squishing another one.
"Dude, that's freaking disgusting," I said, "Besides, what are we doing?"
"I don't know. Don't ask them, though. They won't answer," Jen said. I flipped through my iPod and put on some Gym Class Heroes.
"Lucy! Krystal's here!" Mom shouted. Starla swallowed.
"What?" she said.
"I know, I know. I don't know why the fuck she's here, but she isn't supposed to be here for another half hour!"
"I'm waiting!" I heard Krystal say from downstairs. I gulped.
"Shit," Alex said. I glared at him and they scrammed. Then, I raced downstairs to meet my friend.
"Starla!" Krystal said. I hugged her quickly and then looked at her.
"Krystal, listen I-" I started, but she raced up the stairs and into my room. I raced after her. She blew open the room. I sighed as I saw that the three idiots weren't there.
"So, what is it you need to tell me?" she said in her Pennsylvanian accent.
"I-nothing," I said. She smiled. Krystal is great and another castaway of our high school. She's what you call a delinquent. She'll spray paint the school wall one day and think of egging a house in her neighborhood the next. Plus, she's like Starla, cussing out pretty much everyone in the class.
Best Friends Forever.
"Hey, what's this?" she said. She picked up a gleaming white feather and held it up in the sunlight. Shit. Whosever feather that was, I made a mental note to mentally murder that person.
"Um...I don't know," I said as I shrugged. Krystal raised an eyebrow.
"Dude, this is a perfectly good angel feather. What the fuck is going on?" Krystal asked.
"Why would you think this is an angel feather?" I said. Man, I am so getting better on my acting skills.
"I...I mean, you have a dove here or something?" Krystal said. Wait, this couldn't be.
"Angel...you? You've got to be kidding!" I said in a joking voice. Krystal started to laugh nervously.
"Y-yeah," she said.
"Spit it out, Seaver," I commanded.
"Okay, I'm a guardian angel alright? I'm here to watch Leo," Krystal said quickly.
"You mean you're watching your boyfriend?" I yelled loudly. Krystal slapped me.
"SHUT UP! Wait, why haven't I disappeared?" Krystal asked.
"Baka! The only reason you haven't disappeared is this!" I yelled. Alex, Starla, and Jen came out and was laughing.
"Nice word play!" Jen said, smiling. Krystal looked angry.
"You mean you knew?!" Krystal retorted, "This is going to look ugly on my profile!"
"Who gives a crap?" Alex said, "Headmaster knew this was going to happen anyway." Krystal looked horrified.
"Why are you three here anyway?" Krystal said. We quickly filled her in. She had this blank look on her face the whole time. When we finished, Krystal was still mad.
"Anyway, we need to find you three a way to track Lucy at school," Krystal said.
"We already got you," Alex said.
"You guys are so lazy! It took me forever to get in the school!" Krystal retorted.
"This is easy though. We can just pretend we're each other's parents," Starla said.
"And when you're trying to get in with Alex?" Krystal said.
"Jen can wear a wig," Starla answered.
"Why me?!" Jen said.
"Then, again, if you don't want to wear it, we can always be lesbians," Starla said. Alex smirked while Jen and Krystal looked horrified.
"Fine," I said.
"Lucy, we need to talk," Jen said. We walked out into the balcony and I shut the sliding door.
"I'm not so sure we can trust Krystal," Jen said. I looked surprised. Jen is usually an easy going person.
"Why?" I asked.
"Well, that's because...well, Krystal is still an Ignotum," Jen said.
"Dude, stop being confusing," I said.
"Ignotum is Latin for 'unknown'. She's an unsure person. That means she can be passing on info to the Darkness and stuff like that. Something like the middle of a Light Angel. She can't be trusted enough, you know," Jen explained.
"So you're saying my best friend could sell me out," I said angrily.
"Well..." Jen started, but I already slammed the door.
Krystal would never do that...right?
"Whoa!" she said. I whizzed passed her and into my room. I saw the three still there.

"I know, I know. I don't know why the fuck she's here, but she isn't supposed to be here for another half hour!"
"I'm waiting!" I heard Krystal say from downstairs. I gulped.
"Shit," Alex said. I glared at him and they scrammed. Then, I raced downstairs to meet my friend.
"Starla!" Krystal said. I hugged her quickly and then looked at her.
"Krystal, listen I-" I started, but she raced up the stairs and into my room. I raced after her. She blew open the room. I sighed as I saw that the three idiots weren't there.
"So, what is it you need to tell me?" she said in her Pennsylvanian accent.
"I-nothing," I said. She smiled. Krystal is great and another castaway of our high school. She's what you call a delinquent. She'll spray paint the school wall one day and think of egging a house in her neighborhood the next. Plus, she's like Starla, cussing out pretty much everyone in the class.
Best Friends Forever.
"Hey, what's this?" she said. She picked up a gleaming white feather and held it up in the sunlight. Shit. Whosever feather that was, I made a mental note to mentally murder that person.
"Um...I don't know," I said as I shrugged. Krystal raised an eyebrow.
"Dude, this is a perfectly good angel feather. What the fuck is going on?" Krystal asked.
"Why would you think this is an angel feather?" I said. Man, I am so getting better on my acting skills.
"I...I mean, you have a dove here or something?" Krystal said. Wait, this couldn't be.
"Angel...you? You've got to be kidding!" I said in a joking voice. Krystal started to laugh nervously.
"Y-yeah," she said.
"Spit it out, Seaver," I commanded.
"Okay, I'm a guardian angel alright? I'm here to watch Leo," Krystal said quickly.
"You mean you're watching your boyfriend?" I yelled loudly. Krystal slapped me.
"SHUT UP! Wait, why haven't I disappeared?" Krystal asked.
"Baka! The only reason you haven't disappeared is this!" I yelled. Alex, Starla, and Jen came out and was laughing.
"Nice word play!" Jen said, smiling. Krystal looked angry.
"You mean you knew?!" Krystal retorted, "This is going to look ugly on my profile!"
"Who gives a crap?" Alex said, "Headmaster knew this was going to happen anyway." Krystal looked horrified.
"Why are you three here anyway?" Krystal said. We quickly filled her in. She had this blank look on her face the whole time. When we finished, Krystal was still mad.
"Anyway, we need to find you three a way to track Lucy at school," Krystal said.
"We already got you," Alex said.
"You guys are so lazy! It took me forever to get in the school!" Krystal retorted.
"This is easy though. We can just pretend we're each other's parents," Starla said.
"And when you're trying to get in with Alex?" Krystal said.
"Jen can wear a wig," Starla answered.
"Why me?!" Jen said.
"Then, again, if you don't want to wear it, we can always be lesbians," Starla said. Alex smirked while Jen and Krystal looked horrified.
"Fine," I said.
"Lucy, we need to talk," Jen said. We walked out into the balcony and I shut the sliding door.
"I'm not so sure we can trust Krystal," Jen said. I looked surprised. Jen is usually an easy going person.
"Why?" I asked.
"Well, that's because...well, Krystal is still an Ignotum," Jen said.
"Dude, stop being confusing," I said.
"Ignotum is Latin for 'unknown'. She's an unsure person. That means she can be passing on info to the Darkness and stuff like that. Something like the middle of a Light Angel. She can't be trusted enough, you know," Jen explained.
"So you're saying my best friend could sell me out," I said angrily.
"Well..." Jen started, but I already slammed the door.
Krystal would never do that...right?

Chapter 16 ~ Alex
"Okay, this is weird," Lucy said. I smirked as she flapped her blue colored wings.
"Funny, those look like Hatsune Miku wings," she observed, "From Project Diva."
"That's because Hatsune Miku is the angel who created that spell," Starla said.
"Hatusne Miku is an angel?! I thought she was a computer," Lucy said.
"You got a lot to learn," I said.
"At least we all have ways of transportation," Starla said, "But who's going to carry Jen?" Lucy and Starla looked at me.
"Bloody hell," I grumbled, but I picked up Jen and hung her over my shoulder.
"Let's get going," Starla said.
"Hey, wait! We have no idea how long this spell's gonna last!" Lucy complained.
"We'll wing it," I said.
"You're technically saying you're winging my death," she retorted.
"No, I said-now that you mention it, that IS what I was trying to say," I observed. Lucy kicked me in the shin.
"That means we just need you to get home as soon as possible," Starla said, "Let's go." I took off and so did Starla. Lucy didn't look so sure.
"Don't be scared. Come on!" I said. She smiled and lifted. She wobbled unsteadily.
"Um..." she whispered.
"It's okay. Just go nice and easy," Starla said. She flapped her wings forward and sighed. She started to move forward.
It was a silent day on the way and we would be there in an instant if it weren't for Lucy's inexperience. I looked at the sun and the scrolled down my iPod. I clicked "Both of Us" by B.o.B. and Taylor Swift. I listened to the music and felt calm again.
"Um...Starla?" Lucy said. She looked over.
"We got some company," Lucy gulped. Starla paled. I took off my earplugs and looked. A swarm of black angels were closing in on us.
"I'll deal with them," I said.
"Idiot! You can't take this much!" Starla complained.
"You need to keep Lucy safe!" I yelled back. I rushed up to the dark creatures and looked over my shoulder. I smiled.
"This is going to be a hell of a fight," I said. I summoned my viola and started to play a concerto by Schubert. The dark angels stopped. I started to smile. This is one of the pretty ones. I set my bow on the C string and flew closer. They all closed their eyes.
Yes.
I took out more hidden sword in my bow and cut off each head silently while still playing the concerto. I cut off wings, stabbed some in the chest and sometimes did a blow to the head. Soon, the last one found out what I was doing.
I summoned my bazooka and said, "Sucker." Then, I did a giant blow to the head. Nice explosion to go with it.
Hopefully the bystanders don't find any melted wings.
Sorry again for the late update! I'm done with school so I'll be posting quicker...hopefully!

Last Night Good Night
UPDATE: You can find Chapter 15 under this post.
Now, some of you have probably wondered if the song is real or not. And it is real. Sung by Hatsune Miku: Last Night Good Night. It doesn't have all the instruments, Alex is just on his violin...and Lucy should be able to hit those high notes...
That's the video. I'll put the MP3 download if any of you want it as soon as I find it. Thank you and continue reading! I love all my fans! Tell everyone about my story.

Chapter 15 ~ Jennifer
I woke up feeling lightheaded. If felt like my insides were tied up. Everything was fuzzy. I blinked and everything came into focus. I realized there was a wet rag on my head. My shirt was bloody and Alex was healing one of the cuts on my chest. I winced as the magic surged into my body. Starla was back, conversing with Lucy.
"Starla-" I said as I winced. Starla looked over.
"She's conscious again," Starla said with a sigh of relief.
"Jen, don't talk. Alex said not to. We cleaned up your cuts. We're in the forest now where the dark angel was camping out. You passed out. Starla went to freaked out and almost twisted Alex's head," Lucy said.
"Shut up Jen. When you move around, the bleeding starts again. Wait, until the magic settles," Alex muttered as he sent more energy coursing through my body. I winced, but I felt the flesh begin to close up. I sighed.
"Hey, Nightwalker,"Alex said. Starla winced.
"What baka?" she growled. This isn't a good time to piss her off, Alex.
"Why did you leave us? Four is better than three! We could have gotten the job done quicker and escaped, keeping Lucy safe!" Alex said. Lucy rubbed her forehead, the place where Alex said she was whacked in the head.
"Three? Lucy shouldn't have been fighting," Starla said.
"They're butts got whipped and I had to get in there. I couldn't help it," Lucy said, "I can't see my friends in danger."
Starla burst out laughing, "So lame!" I was ready to punch her in the face. I let Alex do the work. Starla squinted her eyes.
"I was half-tired from carrying Lucy. I couldn't have fought as well as I could," Alex argued.
"My situation was way more important than yours!" Starla said back.
"Hmm?" I asked. This I wanted to hear. So Starla explained everything that happened in the story.
"Thank God no one was here..." I sighed. The others nodded in agreement.
"Jen..." Lucy asked gently. She leaned over and brushed the hair off my face.
"Lucy, all we care about is your safety," I said. She looked up.
"What?" she said dazed.
"That's our job," Starla said, "We're like tools to help you. We have no meaning in life, but to protect the one."
"That means you have no life then!" Lucy said. We stopped and stared.
"Lucy forget it. I'll give you some wings so you can fly home. You need to be safe and away. It's dangerous here," I said.
"No!" Alex said.
"It's not my life force idiot. I still have some power inside me. I don't go down so easily," I smiled. Starla looked pained and looked away.
"Lux Angelus alis cresce Luceat viam in lucem!" I chanted as I blacked out. One thought came into my mind.
Let Lucy be safe...
Author's Note: I am SO sorry for the late update. The EOC's and Final Exam's were all these two weeks and I'm terribly sorry for late updates. I'll be up to date at the end of this week!
"Starla-" I said as I winced. Starla looked over.
"She's conscious again," Starla said with a sigh of relief.
"Jen, don't talk. Alex said not to. We cleaned up your cuts. We're in the forest now where the dark angel was camping out. You passed out. Starla went to freaked out and almost twisted Alex's head," Lucy said.
"But-" I croaked.
"Hey, Nightwalker,"Alex said. Starla winced.
"What baka?" she growled. This isn't a good time to piss her off, Alex.
"Why did you leave us? Four is better than three! We could have gotten the job done quicker and escaped, keeping Lucy safe!" Alex said. Lucy rubbed her forehead, the place where Alex said she was whacked in the head.

Chapter 14 ~ Starla
I felt bad leaving them, but there was some familiar smell from the forest and I had to check it out. I raced inside the forest and listened. I heard a crackling sound. I raced over there.
Remember? Enhanced hearing and smell? I smelled one aura that came only comes from a dark angel. I had to question him or her about what was going on. It might have something to do with the attack. As I raced through the forest the scent became stronger. A branch scraped my shoulder, but I kept on going.
And there she was. It seemed she was an escapee from heaven. Prisoner 0231 or Danielle Echizen.
Danielle is a dark angel, a dangerous one while at it. She's able to control the force of gravity. In the prisoner cells in Heaven, the officials strip all your magic away from the prisoner and they become a helpless thing. Her powers should be gone.
The campfire. She must be trying to renew her powers through the ritual called "Deflection". You have to chant something and your powers are renewed and stuff. The chant is so complicated, but she said it and a gray aura surrounded her. It smelled like death.
No chance getting your powers back with me around.
I tackled her and ruined the ritual. I stamped out the campfire and the gray aura from Danielle disappeared.
"Nightwalker!" she growled. Makes sense. I was the one who captured her.
"You want me to break out Eros?" I demanded. She kicked me in the shin. I hissed and began the transformation. My hair turned to white. My eyes turned purple and I grew fangs. I had a deep scarlet cape with black armor on. I held a spear in my hand. This blonde had an alter ego that can scare the wits out of the worst of the dark angels.
"You will die, Echizen. No more pity, bitch," I growled. I burst into blue flames. Danielle's face was full of fear as I crept up to her.
My alter ego: Eros the Demon. Nightwalker makes a sensible nickname, although I'm going to kill the bastard who made it up.
I rushed at Danielle who ran in return. I chased after her until I became invisible and ran ahead. When she came close, I grabbed her by the neck and became visible.
"Nice try," I hissed. My hair flailed wildly without the wind.
"You bastard..." Danielle said.
"What was that dark angel doing here? And the phantom dog?" I growled.
"I...won't tell...you...anything!" she gasped. I kicked her in the shin as my eyes turned red.
"TELL!!!" I screamed. I kicked her in all the places I could think of kicking until she began to choke up blood. I grabbed her by the neck again and my talons sank in her neck, deeper.
"Alright! They're here for the child of misfortune. Master Igneel commanded us," she rasped as she became limp. I dropped the corpse on the forest floor. It wasn't the kicking that killed her, but the talons in her neck. The blood poured out like hell.
I tossed the flower from my hair into her body. Then, I became normal again. I took a stick and lit in on fire. I tossed it on Danielle. Her body burst into flames.
"Rest in peace," I whispered in her ear. I trudged back to the others.
Funny how I didn't feel anything.

Chapter 13 ~ Lucy
Angel blood? How does he...
The guard grabbed me by the neck.
"Where are the angels?" he growled. The dog growled too.
"Never telling you! You'll never know!" I choked out. He tightened his grip. I clenched my teeth and shut my eyes. Then, he loosened his grip and then let go. I gasped for breath. Then, I saw vines wrapping around his hands and legs. Starla and Alex punched the guard in the face at the same time. Then, the stomach.
Then we made a run for it.
"Those vines aren't going to hold for long," Jen muttered.
"Who is that?" I asked.
"Dark Angel. Vive versa of guardian angels. Fluffy is a phantom dog. It's like he's...a more advanced form of Cerberus with one head," Jen explained.
"I'll grab your wings and pluck all your feathers off!" the guard said. He broke from his vines and raced after us.
"Come on. Time to fly," Alex said. He carried me bridal style and lifted me up.
"Ugh, Lucy. How much do you weigh?" Alex groaned. I slapped him in the face.
"Let's get going," Starla said. We took off. The dark angel and Fluffy flew up too. I saw that his wings were a dark color. Sort of purple-black.
Then I realized I was in the air.
Now it would have been fun. If you took out the part of the dark angel, phantom dog, and Alex complaining about my weight.
"Lucy, you need to try some diet skills. Eat lettuce and-" Alex said as I slapped him again.
"It's not her weight, dweeb. It's her bones. They're not hollow like ours," Starla muttered.
"I-I can't go any farther. Lucy's weighing me down and it hurts like hell," Alex said. I punched him in the face playfully.
"Fine, lets land and fight," Starla said. Alex put me down in a nearby bush.
"You guys fight him. I need to deal with something. Lucy, stay there," Starla said. I agreed, but I really wanted to help.
Alex gave the guy another punch in the face and summoned his new Tonfa Blasters. He shot and the whole place blew up. Alex smiled and them frowned. The guard was still at us.
"Oh, damn! They're scuffed up! I need to get this fixed," Alex said.
"Pretty impressive. You have a Tonfa. But, I have a Tonfa Weapon Shield. Hah! Now come here you puny things!" the guard said.
Jen chanted a spell that made him burst into flames. He jumped into the nearest pond. Jen cursed as he arose from the pond. Then, she summoned roots to tie around his ankles. She was pooped out by then.
The dark angel sent Fluffy flying at her. Fluffy grew bigger into the size of Alex, which is about five foot eight. He scratched on her chest and she screamed in pain. As Alex ran to help Jen, the dark angel became invisible and punched him in the stomach. He let out a cry in pain.
Damn it!
That's when I stormed in. I gave the guy a roundhouse kick and then a jab at the neck. Then, I used my pocketknife (which I always carry around) and stabbed him in the chest. He screamed and fell to the ground. I stomped on his face and took out the knife. He screamed again. He turned pale. I stuck out my tongue as he faded away.
Now to Fluffy. Jen, who was thankfully still alive, summoned lightning and zapped the phantom dog to nothing. Alex and I helped Jen into the water and washed her cuts.
"Such a fail, Alex. The mortal had to save the celestial," I taunted.
"Shut up or I'll shoot you with a Tonfa Blaster," Alex said. We fell on the water, not caring if some man eating creature was lurking around underneath.
The guard grabbed me by the neck.
"Where are the angels?" he growled. The dog growled too.
"Never telling you! You'll never know!" I choked out. He tightened his grip. I clenched my teeth and shut my eyes. Then, he loosened his grip and then let go. I gasped for breath. Then, I saw vines wrapping around his hands and legs. Starla and Alex punched the guard in the face at the same time. Then, the stomach.

Chapter 12 ~ Alex
I woke up the next day, tired from last night. The fish was yummy and Lucy snuck us some apple juice boxes from downstairs. The smoked salmon was great. Everyone was still sleeping. I stretched and did a quick flight to exercise my wings.

I looked at her in surprise.
"You really do know all the lyrics," I whispered.
"And the English translation. It's such a sad song...your profile/dreaming peacefully/without i even realize
/these tears falls on my cheek/i’m trying to hide/the heartbeats of my sorrow/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night/this night, i hold your hand tight/ and fall asleep/‘good night’/i think it would be wonderful/if i can spend another morning with you/even if that’s only a mere hope/miracle that i only imagine/when i can’t confess anything/i can’t say ‘good bye’, too/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night/even if this voice fades/this melody shall not fades/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night /and when i think that the end/will come someday/in this night sky i pray/for that smile to remain forever/‘good night’,"she sighed, "It reminds me of me." We sat there and watched the sun rise.
"I gotta go and eat breakfast," she said as she rushed out the door. She's like me. A Japanese.
"Morning, baka," Starla said.
"Do NOT start the day of wrong," Jen growled.
"I'm hungry," Starla said.
"We have leftover fish," Jen pointed out.
"Hey!" someone said. I turned around. Lucy.
"Oh, good morning, Lucy," I said.
"What do you want to do today?" she asked.
"I don't know. I was planning to practice my violin in the woods," I said.
"You play violin?!" she yelled. I shrugged. Then, I flew up to her and landed on the balcony. I summoned my violin and tuned it.
"Can you play a song?" she asked. I blinked but settled my bow on the A string and played. Her eyes sparkled.
"I know this song! Can I sing it?" she asked. I nodded and started again.

I looked at her in surprise.
"You really do know all the lyrics," I whispered.
"And the English translation. It's such a sad song...your profile/dreaming peacefully/without i even realize
/these tears falls on my cheek/i’m trying to hide/the heartbeats of my sorrow/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night/this night, i hold your hand tight/ and fall asleep/‘good night’/i think it would be wonderful/if i can spend another morning with you/even if that’s only a mere hope/miracle that i only imagine/when i can’t confess anything/i can’t say ‘good bye’, too/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night/even if this voice fades/this melody shall not fades/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night /and when i think that the end/will come someday/in this night sky i pray/for that smile to remain forever/‘good night’,"she sighed, "It reminds me of me." We sat there and watched the sun rise.
"I gotta go and eat breakfast," she said as she rushed out the door. She's like me. A Japanese.
"Morning, baka," Starla said.
"Do NOT start the day of wrong," Jen growled.
"I'm hungry," Starla said.
"We have leftover fish," Jen pointed out.

"Might as well see Pittsburgh if you're going to stay here for a few years," Lucy said.
"That's not too far," Jen said, looking up Pittsburgh in Google Maps, "But, you can't drive."
"You always have us," I said, extending my wings. I knocked over a vase. Lucy glared at me, but softened.
"Fine. But, who's going to carry me?" Lucy asked. I looked at Jen.
"Oh, shit..." she said.
Lucy got her backpack and packed a few things.After Lucy got permission to leave the house, we flew there in a flash. We flapped down onto a tree. Lucy spit out some leaves in her mouth.
"Welcome to Pittsburgh!" she said. That's right. It smells horrible here.
"So where to?" Starla asked.
"I can show you the conservatory," Lucy offered. Jen and Starla shrugged, but I was secretly excited. When I thought "conservatory" I thought "Music? Now that's something that can be interesting." Angels always have a preference. I'm in the medical arts and music part.
Wrong. As usual.
Because all there was were freaking flowers. But, hey, they got rid of the smell.
"Thought we might have a little picnic here," Lucy said. She pulled out four sandwiches.
Today, God is not in my favor. I mean, sandwiches are yummy, but they just had to be roast beef.
"Roast beef?" I retorted.
"Yeah, so?" Lucy said, "Oh, wait. Let me guess. You hate roast beef and you possible want to hang it like you did with Pikachu."
"That's stupid. Who hangs a sandwich?" I said. Starla and Lucy raised an eyebrow.
"Okay, maybe I do want to hang it-" I started.
"Good thing I brought those apples you picked. Along with spare salmon. Now you can eat an apple salmon shish-ka-bob. Happy?" Lucy said. I grabbed the shish-ka-bob and bit into the smoked salmon. Jen really is a good cook.
"Starla, what the hell are you doing?" Jen asked.
"Picking flowers. For my part of the roof," Starla replied innocently. She picked a light blue one and put it in her hair. At that time, one guard came by.
"Quick! Turn invisible!" Lucy hissed. We did.
The guard walked by us. He was walking a dig. This dog had pure red eyes and sharp teeth. It's coat was so black it looked blue and its sharp claws dug onto the paved concrete.
Its mane was Fluffy. It sniffed at invisible Jen, who bit her lip.
"Alright, miss?" the guard asked.
"Oh, yes. Just having a picnic," she replied.
"Four sandwiches?" he asked.
"My friends are up ahead looking at the flowers," Lucy replied nervously. He waved goodbye and Lucy saluted him in return. Fluffy barked though. He didn't move, but bit at Starla's finger. Soon, there was supposedly blood coming out of nowhere. Starla winced.
The guard sniffed. Fuck.
"Angel blood..." he muttered. Lucy whimpered and I cursed silently in my head.
As I said before, fuck.
"Starla, what the hell are you doing?" Jen asked.

Chapter 11 ~ Jennifer
I put my books in the corner and summoned our packsacks. I tossed Alex his and Starla hers. Then, I looked inside. My panda pillow pet, blankets, my laptop, extra clothes, spell books, and a communication system to the angels. I put my blankets and pillows down and my books in the corner. I looked at the first one. Matched by Allie Condie. I curled up on my pillow and started to read.
I looked up from my book and saw Starla flopping around in her bunny slippers. Alex was cleaning his new Tonfa Blasters. I smiled. At least they weren't fighting. Finally some peace and quiet.
"Shit-what did you do to Pikachu Alex!?" she yelled.
"Isn't it obvious? I hung him," he said.
"But-but," Lucy stuttered.
"It's mine, right? I put it in good use," Alex replied.
"Lucy!" I said. I couldn't bear the fighting.
"What?" she said. A sudden question popped in my head.
"How come you can see us? We did the invisible spell correctly, right?" I asked.
"That is a good question, now that you think about it. You can see us and hear us and feel us. Usually you can't and we'd have to turn visible," Starla pondered.
"Let's test that theory. How many fingers am I holding up?" Alex said. He held up all his fingers.
"Uh...five," Lucy said.
"No! The thumb isn't a finger. So its four," Alex said, "God, I thought everyone knew that." Lucy sighed.
"You can see us Lucy," Jen said.
"There aren't any glitches in the spell. I checked our spell log," Starla said, flipping through the log book, "Oh, I remember this spell. The one where Alex-"
"No! Don't say that out loud!" he begged.
"Why? No one can hear us," Starla said, smirking.
"Lucy can hear us!" Alex said.
As Starla and Alex bickered, I whispered, "Starla cast a spell on Alex where she set his head on fire and he didn't realize it. Half his hair was burned to a crisp by the time he realized it. It was on video. I can give you the tape..." Lucy giggled.
"Alex! Why don't you...go get us some dinner? Maybe some fish?" I asked.
"Sure. Lucy can I borrow 50 bucks?" Alex asked.
"You don't need fifty dollars to buy fish!" Lucy said.
"I know that. I just want to go buy a Ripstik, you know that cross between a snowboard and skateboard," Alex said.
"Take the ten dollars," Lucy said as she took some out from her pocket. Alex soared off.
"Don't fly, you idiot! Someone can see you!" I said. Starla sighed.
"Angels, huh? I wonder what the world really is..." Lucy said.
"The world really is? There's us the light angels," I said.
"Then there are the dark angels. The alter ego of us," Starla said.
"Then there are the pegasus, dragons, fairies," I said.
"Plus the werewolves, vampires, and dark fairies," Starla added.
"How big is the world?" Lucy asked.
"No one knows, but I can tell you, its beautiful..." Starla sighed. I smiled. Soon the angel communicator vibrated. I rushed over and listened to it.
"Jennifer Gomez. Headmaster awaits to speak with you," the messenger said.
In the back I heard Headmaster's voice.
"HELLO? JEN? CAN YOU HEAR ME?" Headmaster yelled. I kept the earpiece away from me.
"You don't have to yell, sir," I said. Headmaster calmed down.
"Oh, I just want to check on you three. Have you met up with Luigi?" he asked. I sighed.
"It's Lucy, sir. And yes, we have," I responded. The Headmaster was cut off.
"I'm sorry, but Headmaster is having some trouble breathing. We will get to you as soon as possible. Thank you," the messenger said. I clicked the off button. Another health problem, but he can't die. He's immortal...right?

Chapter 10 ~ Starla
Oh, good. Lucy's finally warming up to us.
We decided to rest for the day. I mean, that was a long trip from 5 AM to 7 AM and we're tired. You know, who else wouldn't feel tired. We summoned our packing bags and lay out our blankets in different places. I was under the bed. Jen was on the bottom of the balcony, invisible. Alex was on the beanbags Lucy had. We pretty much slept all day until night time. I woke up and saw Lucy on the balcony. I got up
"You can't stay like this forever you know," I said. She gasped and turned around.
"Oh, Starla," she replied.
"Who did you expect? Jen? Baka*?" I said.
"No one in particular. It's new," she sighed. She looked up at the moon.
"What's so special about the moon?" I asked.
"Nothing in particular. It just reminds me that I'll never be as pure as it is," she said. I felt something wet hit my head. And it wasn't drool.
"Rain," Lucy said she rushed in and grabbed her umbrella to keep Jen dry. Then, we walked inside together.
"Happens as usual. Perfect timing," she said. I looked at her confused.
"You don't know, don't you. I'm a cursed child. I don't know why, but bad luck follows me everywhere. I'm worried, Starla. Everyone hates me because of it. If I'm playing basketball with people, the ball will inflate for no good reason," she said.
"Maybe a hole was created," I said.
"In the talent show, a light breaks every time I'm in the show," she said.
"Technical difficulties," I replied.
"Raining 7/10 of the time I'm outside?" she said.
"Maybe the rain god hates you?" I said uncertainly.
"Starla, stop it. I've already given up. No matter what I do, bad luck is there behind my shoulder," she sighed.
"Don't give up! At least the bad luck hasn't killed you or anyone!" I said cheerfully, "Say 'fuck' to the bad luck. Don't worry! It's okay!" She smiled weakly and went to bed.

"Okay, here, lets make a diagram," I said. I grabbed a piece of paper from her room and a pencil.
"What? No fair!" Alex said.
"You fit! Just barely though," I pointed out.
"I'm going to rip your head off Nightwalker!" he roared.
"Bring it!" I challenged.
"No!" Jen said as he punched him in the face. Alex rubbed his cheek and summoned his knives. He didn't throw them though.
"Now, let's try it my way," Alex said. I waited to see his stupid drawing.
"Come here, baka. So, I can rip your legs off!!" I screamed in fury.
"As if!" Alex roared.
"Shut the fuck up!" Lucy yelled. We stared at her. Jen flew down and explained the problem.
"You all are idiots. Think about it. Make it 'equal'. Is that word even in your vocabulary?" she yelled. She grabbed a piece of paper and scribbled on it.
"Try this!" she said and then come down here when you're ready.
"So, shut up. Let's go," Jen said. We walked into Lucy's room.
"I got stuff for you guys! Starla, you get thee bunny slip-" Lucy said as I grabbed them from her hand.
"BUNNIES!!! OMG! I LOVE THEM!!!" I yelled, "I'll name them Fluffy and Fluffy 2."
"Please forgive her. She loves bunnies to the extent her girly side comes in," Alex muttered.
"Jen, I got you some books. You seem to be a bookworm..." Lucy said. She grabbed the stack of books.
"I'll take these two," Jen said as she grabbed the two books from the stack, "These are the only ones I haven't read. Have you read the 39 Clues series? It's really good. So, anyways, thank you." Lucy blink, but put the remaining books on her bed. I focused my attention on Alex, the last one.
"Alex, you have a stuffed Pikachu," Lucy said.
"Pikachu? Where the hell did you get the damn thing?" he asked, "And why a Pikachu?"
"God! I'm not a boy! I don't know what you like either and I doubt you know what I like. So shut up and take the Pikachu," Lucy growled. Her glare was piercing. Alex glared back, but he took the Pikachu by the head.
"Pika Pika!" it went.
"Fuck you, Pikachu," he muttered so quietly Lucy couldn't hear. Jen tried to keep a straight face. We went up on the roof and did a few enchantments. You know, invisibility, sound dome, and force field. The usual.
"Wait, I need to do something," Alex said. He grabbed the Pikachu by the head (Pika Pi!) and flew to the nearest tree. He summoned some top and tied a loop over Pikachu's head. He tied it around the tree. We watched as Alex hung the Pikachu. Emphasis on hang.
"Okay, I'm ready," he said.
