Chapter 22: Taken

Kevin's POV:

I was super excited for today. I was going to watch Angel show off her powers. I wonder what it'll look like. Since she left, I've been becoming good friends with Zane. His leg healed up but he had some trouble shifting. He managed to heal up completely. He finally able to shift again. I told everyone to come to see Angel's performance. I've been working at the library and Mr. & Mrs. Graves have been acting weird lately. They keep giving smirks and hidden messages to me and each other. Mrs. Graves is a Seer so she knows everything I don't. But today, I over heard her say she had a terrible vision.

I couldn't listen because more students from the school showed up. We arrived at the Magic Council. Sarah saw Angel and pointed her out for me. She had a nervous breakdown and ran to the bathroom. Her family showed up with her. So did Kalil and Charlotte. She got into it with Angel. Angel kept running to bathroom because her anxiety acted up. I took her to the bathroom. So Dillon casted a spell to make everyone invisible. She killed her performance. Especially the last few creatures. It was like she automatically knew how to defeat them.

Which is strange. No one knows how yo defeat. I even had trouble with them. She lit herself on fire and detonated herself. She can explode herself? Fucking badass. Things went smoothly until she threw up on the floor. She said it was because of oysters. They're actually good. Yeah. When salted. I guess she's not much a oyster person. Lydia said a toast to Angel. Then my dad showed up. He targeted Tasha and walked towards her. Angel got up and defended her.

My dad hit her and me, Zane, Manny, and the rest of us jumped up to defend her but he had a gun to her head. *SNARLS* *GROWLS* FUCKING BASTARD. He walked out the room with her. Her mom, Charlotte and Kalil walked out the room. They tied her up. He's taken her. This was crazy. "This is bullshit." Said Zane. "It is. Stephanie, any idea where he would go?" Lawrence asked her. My m shook her head. I looked over at Kacey. She was really pale. I read her mind. Angel's pregnant? And she fought those creatures? Oh hell no. We want her safe.

Don't worry. I'm gonna get her back. Just then Mr. & Mrs. Graves appeared. "Mrs. Graves, any idea where he took her?" Kacey asked. "Her mom is taking her to Mako Island. They're all gonna try to take her powers." She said. "Ah no. They'll kill her if they do that." Dillon said. "Fuck man!!" Deshawn shouted. I share his frustration. But sitting here talking about it isn't gonna help get her back. "Okay, so where is that?" Asked Sarah asked. "Lawrence?" Mr. Graves asked. He sighed. "It's where our pod is. Its where Angel was born. FUCK ROCHELLE!!!" He screamed as he threw a table. His wife calmed him down.

"Kevin, you're the fastest vampire ever. Do you think you can catch up to them?" Zane asked. "Maybe. I don't know. If we all leave now, we might be able to catch up to him." I said. He smiled. He then shifted and ran out the room. Other werewolves shifted and ran. The rest of us did the same. I flew around, trying to search for Angel's scent. Come on Angel, give me a hint of something. As if she heard me, i found her scent and led everyone to her. I looked around. Witches, werewolves, vampires, and every other magical beings working together to get back a Tri-ling. I smiled.

This is what Angel would've wanted. I know. But you say that like she's already dead. I know she's not. Otherwise we would've felt her pain. I followed her scent to an airport. "Here?" Dillon asked. "They would need to fly in order to make it back home." Lawrence said. "But how can the get Angel through there? She was tied up. There's too many security. They would've stopped them." My mom said. "Unless they put her in a bag." Zane said. We looked at him. "Its the only way. I used to do that too." He said. "You used to smuggle people through the airport?" I asked.

"Nooo. I mean think about it. They wouldn't want her seen so a bag or suitcase will be the next best thing." He said. True. I learn new things from him everyday. We walked inside. I followed her scent to a bathroom. "Wby would she be in here?" Tasha asked. "She was throwin up because she was nervous." Tanisha said. I sewn Kacey, Dillon, and my mom look at each other. Lawrence caught it too. "Uj uh. What's up? You guys know something we don't?" He asked. They quickly shook they're heads.

"Man yeah they do." Deshawn said. "Come on now Kacey." Lawrence said. She grew pale. I moved behind Lawrence. I know he was gonna hit me once she said something. I looked for a way out. "Not only Angel was nervous, she's also....pregnant." She said. Everyone gasped. Lawrence looked around for me. I slipped out the way and into the crowd. "KEVIN!!!!" He shouted. Ah shit. Well I'm dead. I looked around. I ran into a direction where Angel's scent was. "KEVIN GET BACK HERE!!" Lawrence screamed. "Yeah not a chance Lawrence." I said over my shoulder.

I found a plane where it could've taken her. Something caught my eye. I looked out the window to see Kalil and Charlotte. There was a portal in front of them. Kalil opened a suitcase. Angel's hair stuck out. He hit her and pushed her back in. I snarled loudly enough to gain attention. He then threw the suitcase in the portal. "Angel?!" I cried. I took a step but was pounced on by Lawrence. "You got my daughter pregnant?!" He asked. "Right now I'm the least of your problems. Look out the window." I said and pointed to the window. He looked up and gasped. "Angel?!" He cried and got off me and ran.

We all ran outside but they disappeared. "DAMN IT!!" Lawrence screamed. "Okay let's calm down. I can open up another portal. It'll take us to them." Kacey said as her and Dillon uses they're wands to open a portal. I got scared. "Ladies first?" I asked. They looked at me with a blank face. "Fine." I said then jumped through it. Zane came through next. Everyone else followed suit. Zane then shifted and took off. I found her scent and followed him. I transformed and flew over him. I flew high enough to get the lay of the land. I seen my dad in the distance. I flew after them. My a gee fueled my flight, making me fly faster.

I looked down to see wolves and bats following us. Almost there. Angel please be okay. We followed them to an island. Angel's mom grabbed the suitcase and dove in the water. So fid Kalil. My dad transformed into a bat and flew across. Charlotte stood there for a minute. Kalil came back up and gave her seaweed. They both dove in. I landed and transformed back. "Okay so now what do we do?" Manny asked. I looked at Lawrence. He stared at the island. He walked in and swam towards the island.

Jaquan, Deshawn, Tanisha, and Tasha dove in. "So we came all this way for nothing." Tyler said. Taaha came back and had a bunch of seaweed. Tanisha came back too. She used her moon ring to enhance it. They passed it out to us. We ate it. "Yeah, you crazy if you think I'm eating that." Said Dillon. "Just eat it. Its not that bad." Kacey said. She hesitated but ate it anyway. "Oh my God that's good." She said. We dove in and swam to the island. I looked at Tasha's and Tanisha's tails. Its so freaky. I know. Its like looking at long fish.

We swam to the other side. "Okay. You guys follow the trail up the hill on the island. We're gonna use the underwater entrance." Tasha said. "Wait, why don't we use the underwater entrance?" Asked Zane. "You wanna swim 50 meters, without coming up for air? Those seaweed let's you hold your breath for 10 minutes." Tanisha said. "You're right. Air is good." He said. They dove under. "So where's this trail?" Manny asked. I looked around. Its gotta be around here somewhere. Sarah walked off. "Sarah, where are you going?" I called after her. "The trail." She said, pointing.

We followed the trail to a waterfall. "There's nothing here." My mom said. "Its gotta be-" Dillon cut off because she fell. "Dillon?! Are you okay?" Kacey called. There was silence. "Yeah I'm good." She answered. "What's it like down there?" I asked. "Its too dark to tell. But I see light." She said. "I'm going down there." Zane said a d jumped down a hole. "Owww." Dilln said. "Heads up." He said. "Jackass." She said. I laughed then jumped down. I landed in sand. I lit my hand on fire to see.

I felt someone bump into me. Then another. Then more. "Yeah, might wanna get out the way Kev." Dillon said. I got out the way because that shit hurt. I looked down to everyone piled onto each other. I rolled my eyes. I walked towards to light Dillon was talking about. I seen mermaids and mermen. Thousands of them. "Whoa. Their pod is huge." Kacey said. "Look there's Tasha." Sarah said and ran towards her. We ran after her. The mer people saw us and gasped. Sheesh they acting like we seeing them naked. "Tasha!!!!" Sarah screamed. Tasha looked over at us.

Just then Tasha got hit with a green blast. "NOOO!" I screamed. I ran towards her. She was knocked out. More blasts came through. Charlotte. I ran to find her. I seen her and Kalil throwing blasts at everyone. "Kid, we'll take care of them. Go find find Angel." Manny said. I stared at him. He gave me a stern look. I nodded and snuck behind them. I tan to find Angel's scent. I looked around and saw like giant tanks. The ones where the put aquatic mammals in.

There was light at the top of every one of them. I saw what looked like tadpoles. I looked closer. They were tiny mermaids and mermen. I followed the lights to find more tanks. I turned a corner to see Lawrence fighting Rochelle. I transformed and flew over them. I flew til I saw a room with Angel in it. I flew closer. She was almost passed out. She was tied up on a table. No he didn't. I looked at Angel's stomach. It was big. Did we go through a time portal? I seen my dad approach her with his pants off. No. Noo. NOOOO. I transformed and ran into the room.

I pushed him across the room. I quickly untied Angel. "Ke-Kevin?" She mumbled. "Shhh baby girl. I'm getting you out of here." I said. I felt harms wrap around my throat. "No you're not." He said. I felt him press himself against me. Not this time. I kicked him and flipped him. I picked Angel up. I looked around for her clothes. I noticed what looked like an ultrasound. I picked it up. It had Angel's name on it. Angel twitched in my arms.

Then I was tackled and Angel fell to the ground. "Angel!!!!" I cried. My dad slammed me on the table. I kicked and punched with everything in me. He flew across the room and hit a tank. The glass broke and water spilled out. I looked at Angel. If she gets wet, she'll be too heavy to carry. I picked up the ultrasound and Angel and ran out. "Kevin you bring her back right now!!!" My dad screamed. Just then Angel screamed. "Angel it's okay. It me Kevin." I said. She screamed even more.

She pushed away from and shifted from a wolf to a bat. It was back and forth. I watched her writh in pain. I don't know what to do. She continued screaming. She growled and snarled loud. It hurt my ears. I covered them. Her screams was so loud it broke the tanks. Oh God. What's wrong with her? She got up and ran past me. I grabbed he. She continued to pull away from me. "Angel what is wrong with you?" I asked. She stared at me with red eyes then shifted in a wolf and took off. I ran after her. "ANGEL WAIT!!" I cried. She was too fast.
