"He would loose his mind first." Alicia said with a sigh. "I think she has been doing it longer then we think Solomon. Holden told you about Abby right? She didn't die of a medical disease, she died from a mystical one. I think she has been planing this for years." She said with a frown. "I think that if we don't get rid of her soon, it will end him. And that is something neither you or I could live with." Alicia said with cold eyes.
|
"But why? I hadn't known Holden back then...you yes, but him, not so much. I mean, I've seen him with you..so what's her goal?" He sighed a bit, watching Amanda closely. She was stable, at least, but he had no idea if or when she'd wake up.
|
"I don't know, but I know someone who will." Alicia said, "Jasmine?" She asked looking to the corner where she knew Jasmine would appear.
"Yes Alicia what do you need?" Jasmine asked as she appeared. "When you were showing him the changes, what did you see?" Alicia asked. "He will bring peace to two families." Jasmine said looking at the child on the bed. "Oh she is the one." She said very cryptic. "What two families? And what do you mean she is the one?" Alicia asked slightly covering Amanda up. "The animal, and the vampire. She will help him obtain that goal, as will you, and Solomon." She said looking to Solomon with light green eyes. "You Solomon have a great future just like Holden. Alicia you will become powerful to." She paused for a second and inhaled deeply. "Holden has the gift of Clairvoyance, as well as elemental, there is one more but he will find that out soon." Jasmine's eyes turned white as she disappeared. Alicia sat there flabbergasted. "I hate it when she is fucking cryptic." She said looking to Solomon. |
Solomon tuned her out as she spoke, and when she disappeared he opened his eyes, "She's wrong you know..." Even though he spoke as if he was going to continue, he would not. After a moment he added, "Jaclynn could care less about the relationship between us and the beasts; in fact, she prefers it the way it is." He looked off to the side, his hands going into his pockets.
|
"I know, but I also know that there is something else Jasmine isn't telling us. She normally wouldn't come right out and state it she would of given us clues or something to what Holden's powers are." Alicia said looking at Amanda who was starting to wake up. "I can tell there is something that you know Solomon, I don't care if you tell me or not but as long as you protect Holden." She said smiling at the now awake Amanda. "Hey Amanda, how are you feeling?" Alicia asked.
"Wheres Holden?" She asked rubbing her eyes. "He went to run a few errands. Are you hungry?" She asked helping Amanda sit up. Amanda nodded, she looked at Solomon. She got up off of the bed and went over to Solomon. She gave his legs a hug, and gave his a smile. |
Solomon smiled, crouching down and giving Amanda a hug as well, "Maggy must've worn you right out, hm?" He stood, looking to Alicia, "I just happen to know her very well...I've had many run-ins with her before." He contacted Holden via telepathy, "Holden, Amanda is awake, but you should finish your errands first, she still seems fairly exhausted."
|
"Mmhmm." Amanda said as she grabbed Alicia's hand.
Alicia smiled and headed to the kitchen with Amanda. "Ok Solomon." "I'm almost done I just have to stop one more place." Holden said as he turned into a parking lot. "Does she have any thing showing that her nerves are bad?" He asked as he went into the store. |
"I'll have to watch her closely...she's going to go eat with Alicia right now. She'll let me know if she notices anything with her hand." He watched as they left the room, "Holden will be back soon..he's got one more stop."
|
"And just let me know." Holden said.
"Ok, Amanda's arm and hand show no signs of nerve damage." Alicia said as she reached the stairs. "So what do you want to eat Amanda?" She asked. "Anything." Amanda said still very tired. |
"Well that's helpful Alicia..I need you to watch her movements carefully, you don't need to report to me or anything, just watch her. I'll analyze your memory once she's finished." He went over to the bed and sat down, allowing himself to lay back on the mattress. "I will keep you updated Holden."
|
"Well neah." Alicia said trying to keep herself from sticking out her tongue.
"Thanks Solomon. I'm on my way back now." Holden said as he got into his car. |
Solomon sat up, looking at his watch. Holden should be back by now. Right? "Are you almost here Holden? Amanda really misses you."
|
I'm pulling into the driveway right now. I wanted to pick something up for Amanda." Holden said as he turned off the car. He got out of the car and went into the house, "I'm..." He started to say but was tackled by Amanda.
"Holden!" Amanda yelled as she hugged him. "Ow well hey there kid." Holden said hugging her back. "I got you something." He said reaching for one of the bags. He pulled out a teddy. "Surprise." Holden said with a smile. "A new teddy!" She said grabbing it and giving it a hug. "Ya now can you please get off of me your knee is digging into my ribs." Holden said with a sound of discomfort. |
Solomon headed downstairs as he heard Holden enter the door. He winced a bit as Amanda tackled him to the ground, "She's got a lot of power in the little body." He chuckled a bit, crossing his arms over his chest boredly. "As I scanned Alicia's memories, I noticed she has a very slight delay in her finger movements..the signal takes about.. .01 millionths of a second longer to reach her muscles. It shouldn't hinder her any, and she shouldn't be able to notice it."
|
"Ow ya she does." Holden said as he stood up rubbing his ribs. "That's good, ow I think she might of cracked one of my ribs." He said with a slight smile. "The funeral is in two days, and I have Amanda's trust fund set up, and I have reading materials." He said picking up three bags. "Oh ya Amanda, I have someone coming over tomorrow to look at the house." He said looking at his watch, "I need to start packing stuff." He said as he rubbed Amanda's head and went to his dad's office.
|
Solomon nodded, "Indeed she does. Oh, Alicia, since it's apartment that everyone's moving into my house, you're more than welcome if you think you'll get lonely at your place." He shrugged, watching the two, "I just hope Jaclynn will leave her alone now."
