Chapter 500-Birth Of A New Alliance.

Marlene's steps were light, her mind calculating as she walked towards the center spot of where Catherine takes her swims. It's been about 2 days since she left, and the first thing that Marlene did was move towards the same place that Austin was called to before he left.

As Marlene walked, all the others around her gave her way, each of them giving her a light nod as she kept walking by. The majesty she displayed had increased from the past, and her path remained smooth and uninterrupted until she reached the end of the very large pool where Catherine lay. Catherine's eyes focused on Marlene, as Marlene stood above the pool.

"You've changed," Catherine replied, her eyes narrowing as she focused on her long-time friend. With just a single glance at Marlene, Catherine could tell that something huge has happened, and her best friend has changed in a very significant manner.
