It is close to midnight on Saturday. The group of Chosen Ones is sitting in the living room. Taina, and Aurora are asleep in the corner. The rest are on the opposite side of the room. Angelique and Carlos are filling Luna in on what has happened, and what they have learned from Aurora and Daniella. What they don't know is that Malkrth will be at the house within a few minutes. The group then splinters off into smaller groups. Javiar, Rudolfo, and Daniella walk into the kitchen. Marisol, Carlos, Rico, Angelique, and Luna stay in the living room.
(Luna) "What I don't understand is why are we not going to stop the ceremony all together?"
(Carlos) "According to Aurora, the ceremony can accomplish what we have been working for. Heaven will receive a soul, and that will save her from the urge to kill innocents. What we need to do is get there ahead of schedule, and stop them from tricking Heaven from draining the baby. Once she has the soul, the baby will disappear from this existance."
(Luna) "Are you certain that this soul will not corrupt Heaven? I want her to be cured, not still fighting."
(Angelique) "I assure you, Heaven will be "cured" of the bloodlust for innocents."
(Marisol) "I think we need to start to make shifts or something. If we all stay up, all night, constantly, we'll be easy pickings for when we face these "anti-chosen" on Monday night."
(Luna) "I can't believe that we all die in the future."
(Rico) "Well, now that we know, we can take precaution, and not let the "future" repeat itself.
(Carlos) "Can the future repeat itself?"
(Angelique) "Please Carlos, now is not the time for philosophical questions."
(Rico) "I agree. We need to focus on the plans that we've been working on."
Meanwhile on the roof, a figure appears. It is Malkrth. The amulet he wears is glowing brilliantly. He knows that the two time travelers are still inside. He opens the sky-light, and slips his way inside. In the kitchen, Javiar, Daniella, and Rudolfo make some food, and begin to talk.
(Javiar) "Does anyone else find this sad?"
(Daniella) "What Javiar?"
(Javiar) "That we are regulated to cooking duty, while the more powerful members are planning our futures."
(Daniella) "I don't think it's sad."
(Javiar) "I do. I think we are risking our lives, just as they are risking theirs. We should be in the living room with them, helping formulate the plans."
(Daniella) "Every member is playing an important part. If we doing this allows them to focus on the upcoming battle, and how to make sure we all survive it, then there is no problem."
(Rudolfo) "Javiar, you are not normally like this. Why are you disagreeable and on edge?"
(Javiar) "I'm sorry. I'm feeling very jumpy. Carlos and I have nearly lost each other twice so far. When you and Aurora came back, and told us we had all died, it was shocking. I'm very afraid."
(Daniella) "Javiar, please, calm down. My father, and the rest of them in the living room are very skilled fighters. And they now have an advantage they didn't before. Try to relax. Let's take this food into the room to the rest of the group. Once we get there, we can hear what the plans are.
Daniella, Javiar, and Rudolfo grab their supplies, and walk into the living room. Everyone begins to eat and drink, and continue to make plans. They are careful not to wake Taina and Aurora.......however, Malkrth appears at the top of the stairs.....he slowly starts to walk down the steps, and is almost at the bottom of the stairs. At this time, Aurora begins to stir. Her psychic powers are picking up on Malkrth's presence.....she slowly wakes up, and sees Malkrth, just before he sees her.
(Aurora) "EVERYONE!!!!!! MALKRTH IS BACK!"
