"If you want my opinion, I think cheese taste pink" Rashel stated. And receiving and angry glare from Jez and a pittied look from Quinn and Morgead.

"No way! Cheese taste-" Quinn started but Morgead finished his sentence with "purple, why thank you Quinn, you have finally seen the light" said Morgead triumphantly while they reached a stop light. Than all of a sudden there was a BOOM from glass breaking. And gun shots.

"Morgead! Quinn! Cover Jez!" Rashel shouted even though they were already covering her before.

"Arggggggg!!" someone shouted in enormous pain. "Drive!" Jez shouted.

"Quinn! Quinn! Are you okay?" Rashel asked with solid panic in her voice. The car drove through the red light.

"Yeah yeah, fine. But one question. Why am I not healing from the bullet wound? It should be half recovered by now," he said slowly as if losing energy. Which he was. And that explains why he fell unconscious right after speaking.

"Quinn?!"

"He's okay. Just unconscious. The reason he's not healing too fast is cause that was a custom made wood bullet." He said while ever so gruesomely prying the bullet from Quinn's shoulder with a tweezer from the Safety Kit." Not much of those now a days. It was just in his leg. From what I hear, the pain is unbelievable and some just die from the pain alone. He should be okay with it out though, good thing it was only in the shoulder" Morgead mumbled.

"Who were those people?" Jez asked Rashel and Morgead.

"All I saw was what seemed to be a witch and what seemed to be a vampire" said Rashel.

"Um, Jez, come drive. Switch places" Rashel suggested. Jez and Rashel swiftly switched places as if they flew through the space between the seats. When they both settled Rashel put Quinn's head in her lap.

"Professor Plummmmm!! With the rope, in the Lounge, I win again!!!!" Quinn shouted dazedly right before he fell back down into Rashel's lap. Everyone sat quietly and stared at the unconscious Quinn.

"Hmm, he seems to be reliving a game of "Clue”. Well, drive on Jez, We're almost there. Few miles more" Rashel mumbled.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I hate long drives!" groaned Winnie while clutching her stomach.

"Quick! Open the window she gonna blow!" shouted Galen. Delos and Maggie started snickering.

"Oh shut up Galen" Winnie said while sticking her head out of the window. "Hey, Keller! Some guys in a car are speeding up. Looks like they're following us" Winnie said tiredly.

"Speed it up, Nissa" Keller said calmly. To Nissa speed it up was known to be the speed of "Speeds" Keanu Reeves Run away bus" It was a long chase, Swerve to the right. Then a sharp turn to the left.

"They're still following us! Turn Left again Nissa! Right! Straight! Right! No Right!" Keller, Galen, and Delos shouted at Nissa. While Maggie and Iliana started screaming. Boom! The followers crashed into a wall.

"Well, looks like we lost them. No doubt they were trying to get the Wild Powers," said Galen.

"Is everyone okay?" Iliana asked worriedly.

"Nooo! Im not!" Winnie said while throwing up out the window. Her head came back in and she had a tinge of green in her face.

"Here Winnie try this" Iliana grabbed Winnie's wrist and pressed a place below her palm "I saw it on Xena Warrior Princess, it's a great show. She did this for Gabrielle when they were on a ship.”

"I saw that one! Didn't we Delos? Or was that another one? No, no, I think we saw it." Maggie interrupted.

"It might work for cars too. Heh heh" Iliana pressed Winnie's other hand on her other wrist.

"Hold it there Winnie" Iliana Added. "Is it working?" Winnie was turning back to her normal skin color. "Yeah, I guess so, thanks" Its a good thing we only have 3 Wild Powers found, thought Keller as they pulled up into Thierry's gate.

"Thierry! Their all here! The Wild Powers are here! They made it safely. But they had a little trouble. But they managed to get away" Hannah said excitedly. "Good good. The rooms are all ready" Thierry replied. "Hannah would you mind telling the others that the Wild Powers are here. Thea was excited on meeting the Witch Wild Power. Their all in the game room" said Thierry with his calm voice. "Sure thing"

"Oh, oh good, we're here I want some ice for my shoulder. That wasn't quite pleasant for me," Quinn said angrily. They walked through a little rock garden in different directions before getting to the view of the door. Rashel turned around to yell that the door was here. But before she could shout she bumped into a boy about her age. A shapeshifter. Yep, that's what he was. He had blond hair, and easy enough to take on. And why was he behind her?

"Hey! Watch where you're going! Your with the people that attacked us aren't you?" demanded Rashel.

"I'm-" But before the guy could answer she did a roundhouse kick and sent him flying into the gravel. Then all of a sudden appeared a girl with black hair and misty gray eyes. Almost as black as hers. She was a few inches taller. Hmm, I'd say, a shapeshifter too. She looked at the boy on the ground. Well, he was unconscious. Rashel looked back at the girl. They just stared at each other for a while. Neither of them had to be told. But they knew that both of them had been through a lot of fights, and won. And neither of the two graceful hunters knew the word lose or fail. But it wouldn't matter in the end. They both lunged at once, both kicking and punching in mid air. Rashel did a graceful flip before landing on the ground at the same time as her opponent. They both landed with a soft and quiet "thud" Then they got back into their fighting stance and moved gracefully throwing kicks punches and more. They seemed like they were flying. They ran at each other again but Rashel did a front flip and flipped over the other girl and kicked her head that made her neck give a "snap" sound. Then she landed behind and kicked the girl in the dirt face first. But the other girl did a "back bronco" and used her legs to make herself get up. Interesting, very interesting. She isn't that bad. But not good enough. Rashel thought as she threw and evil grin on her face. She grabbed the girls arm and turned a bit side ways then kicked her head that made her neck snap backwards this time. The she kicked the shapeshifters stomach. That made the girl left out an "oomph" The guy shapeshifter started to wake up.

And he yelled "Keller! Get away from her!"

The boy lunged at her then Rashel gave another one of her nasty smiles. Then she put her left foot back and brought it forward to give her strength to use her right foot to hit the boy in the face with extra energy. While still holding the arm of the one called Keller. Keller jabbed Rashel in the stomach with her elbow. As she escaped from Rashel's grasp. But Rashel spun and dropped to trip Keller. And while Keller was getting up Rashel was getting tired of this even though they both knew this was nothing. Almost kind of a warm up. So anyway she grabbed Keller and was just about to make her knee crush the shapeshifters rib cage to make it puncture her own lung.

But then someone shouted "STOP!" it was Quinn. "It's a good thing Ash was watching for a while. He only NOW decided to tell me," Quinn said while snarling at Ash. The lamia vampire. With ash-blond hair with eyes that changed by the moment.

"Yes well, it was very entertaining. But I got you before anyone got hu- well died didn't I?" Ash said lazily. Quinn gave another snarl at Ash.

"Rashel meet Keller. Keller meet Rashel. Keller was bringing the 3rd Wild Power over for the valentine's party. And that guy on the ground," Quinn said with distaste "is her soulmate Galen Drache. Of the First House of the Shapeshifters. And Rashel is, well, you might know her better as The Cat" Quinn explained with a devilish grin at the end.

"The...The Cat?"

Keller's face had gone pale. She had just fought the cat. The Cat had done as much, and maybe more damage to the Night World than Keller’s ENTIRE team did. That explains why she was so good.

"So that's why there was a CHANCE I could have lost," Keller said while trying to make her voice sound normal and tough.

"You are the one that has killed many many Night people. And the entire Night World is afraid of you. They even have an award out for you if I'm correct? Oh, let's not forget even some Day Breakers are afraid of you too." Keller added.

"Yes, that's right. Let's see Keller, Keller, yes, I have heard of you as well. You and your team fought one of the ancient Dragons that were awakened. I must say, it must have been hard," Rashel said clearly not meaning any of it.

"Come on Rashel, let's go in and greet the others. Sorry about that Keller" the vampire said. He wasn't that bad looking. She guessed she was kind of busy trying to stay alive to notice. She looked at Galen. What was she doing?! She was comparing The Cat's soulmate with her own. But she couldn't help but feel a tinge of jealousy. But then she remembered the joy Galen brought to her.

"Hi boss. Are you alright? You sure kicked her butt" Winnie said obviously just trying to make her feel better. Keller sighed.

"Just get Delos and Iliana inside Winnie"

"Yes boss"

Oh well, she was The Cat anyway. So, she did do well.

"Hello, Quinn I presume?" Mary-Lynnette asked.

"Why, yes I am. And you must be Mary-Lynnette. I caught a glimpse of you with Rowan. I must say you look better close up" Quinn said charmingly. Then kissed her hand and gave a small smirk as Ash gave a warning look. But then appeared a smile as he saw Rashel. Ash gave an evil grin at Quinn and took Rashel's hand and kissed it. "Hi there, I've been dying to meet the brave girl that could stand BEING with Quinn." Ash said silkily.

"Oh, hi there" Rashel said as if she didn't even notice Ash. After pulling her hand out of Ash's grasp she walked right over to Quinn and he put his arm around her lovingly.

*heh heh* Quinn said to Ash with his mind. And Mary-Lynette started giggling at the two and kissed Ash on the forehead.

*heh heh* Ash said to Quinn. Then Ash and Quinn both looked at Jez and Morgead that were standing in front of the t.v kissing even more passionately and guessed Morgead or Jez knew they were being looked at cause Ash, Quinn, Mary-Lynnette and Rashel heard a *heh heh* from Morgead. Then they all started laughing.

"Hey Rashel! Mary-Lynette!" the shouting came from two girls. One with red coppery curls, which was Poppy. And one with golden hair known as Thea.

"Come, we'll take you to your rooms."

Then Mary-Lynette, Thea, Poppy and Rashel turned to look at Ash and Quinn. Then they both picked up ALL of the luggage and hauled it up the stairs limping behind the girls. "Well, Mary and Ash, this is your room" Thea said. Ash gave a squeal of delight and threw the bags down on the ground. And pointed a finger while laughing at Quinn holding all the bags.

"Don't worry Quinn, both of your room is right next door" Poppy announced. Quinn kicked open the door and threw the bags on the ground as well. "Phew!"

Thierry entered the game room. David and Eric were playing pool. Blaise, Gillian, Hannah and Iliana were putting up pink and red streamer decorations. Morgead and Jez were watching T.V with Delos and Maggie. And everyone else was upstairs resting. Or...doing other things that are none of our business.

"So Thierry, are we going to have to do anything special for this party?" Hannah asked.

"I don't know, should we have a small meeting and see what everyone thinks?"

"Yes, that would be the best thing" replied Hannah

"Blaise? Do you think you could do some spell to make everyone come down here? We don't wanna disturb what ever they are doing. And it would take to long" Thierry pleaded Blaise.

"Sure thing Thierry, Dearie! HeeHee!" Blaise put her hands together and rubbing it against each other as if it were cold. Then she slowly separated them inch by inch. While she was doing that, a bluish blackish sphere appeared. It started the size of a grape, than a golf ball, then a baseball then soon it eventually turned into the size of one of those giant beach balls. Then she yelled something in an unknown language. "Arise!" Blaise yelled in a clear strong voice. Then a giant being appeared. It sort of resembled a dragon. Then the dragon looking being dove into the ground and it shook the whole mansion bringing everyone running down the stairs.

"Blaise! You were only suppose to use that in emergencies!" Thea yelled.

"That was cool! What was that?" James and Poppy yelled.

"It was just a forbidden spell of protection and more of a battle thing. I’m only able to put the illusion of the dragon and not even half of the strength in that spell. But we were only suppose to use it for emergencies like Thea said. It may be strong but not as strong as the Wild Powers blue fire" Blaise explained.

"Anyway, I asked Blaise to somehow get everyone down here without DISTURBING them so much" Thierry said while glaring at Blaise. But Blaise only shrugged and said; "I wasn't disturbed"

"I wanted to call a meeting to see what we should do on Valentines Day"

Thierry went on. "I think the guys should write a poem for their soulmates!"

"Uh uh, I don't think so," said all of the guys. The debate went on for about 3 hours. And in the end the girls won. The guys would read their poems at the party. All the guys started whining. Some looked as if they were about to cry. "Vampires writing poems. How strange" Thierry said. Well 4 more days to think of a poem all the guys said to themselves. Just enough time. Heh, just enough time, my butt. They said to themselves.

All the guys were at the Library. Getting some quiet time to write their poems. Many of them were stuck. Some wrote anything. Cause they were in a hurry. When they finished they would get to go to the pool with all the girls. Hurry Hurry Hurry they ordered themselves. Thierry dropped his pencil, obviously on purpose and went over to get it. While walking over to get it, he carefully looked over everyone's shoulder to see who had written the most. It turned out to be Galen. So Thierry cautiously peeked over Galen's shoulder looking at his poem. There was no running away from it. Thierry may be the Elder, but he could not write a poem.

"Hey!! Stop cheating Thierry. Oh gees. What a great Lord of the Night World." Galen shouted while desperately covering his paper. David, Eric and Morgead stared at the two. "Are you mocking me Galen Drache? Son of the First House of the Shapeshifters?" Thierry inquired.

"Just go back to your table and do your own poem" Galen mumbled.

"Fine" After Thierry sat down, out of god knows what coincidence; David and Eric "accidentally" dropped their pencils too.

"How do you think they're doing?" asked Gillian.

"By all the grumbling I'm hearing from inside, I'd say, their not exactly having a party." Keller said.

"Ready set go!" Rashel shouted. Jez and Keller sped off racing to the other end of the pool and back. Rashel was feeling a bit queasy. Keller reached the end first and came back first. "Pardon me? Did you just call me Jezebel?" Jez splashed some water in Keller's face. When she was about to turn around Keller slapped her hand on the surface of the water and got some water on Jez's hair. Then they both started giggling like mad and making a ruckus in the pool. Keller managed to crawl out of the pool. Then out of no where, before anyone could see what it was something pushed Keller back in the pool. Rashel got ready to dive and get Keller but then she recognized who the attacker was. Keller thrashed her arms and tried to grab her attacker but saw who it was and started to relax. Galen. "Gees, you sacred me! Aren't you the little poet. You're the first one done" "Yeah well. All I did was describe how great you were. That's why I was done so fast. Not much to write about" Galen said with a grin. Keller dove down and pulled him under water. They both bobbed up. "Just kidding! Just kidding! I guess I just write fast"

Rashel went back to her room. She dried off and went to take a shower. As she relaxed in the tub, she heard the door open.

"Rashel, is that you?"

Quinn’s voice, Rashel concluded.

"Who else would be in here?"

"I guess so then. Why'd you leave the pool early?"

"I wasn't feeling very well. In fact I wasn't feeling good at all. I just had the honor of greeting my breakfast in the toilet" Rashel replied grumpily. "No, we can go after. I do feel a bit better now"

"Sure, okay"

"I think you will like my poem the most out of anybody else's. You do remember your how to speak French right? I remember you telling me about when you went to France to.... Eliminate a dangerous Vampire or something like that. And you had to disguise as one of those prostitutes that he took blood from..." Quinn asked while chuckling at the end.

"Is everybody ready? We decided last night that it wasn't exactly fair that we girls don't have to do anything. So we chose to do a talent show kind of thing. Well, some of us did. Poppy, Jez, Winnie, and Thea will be singing. Keller will be doing gymnastics. Blaise will be playing the flute. Rashel was going to do gymnastics, but as you all heard, she wasn't feeling to up to the weather. So she will be playing the piano. A piece by Beethoven, called, Fur Elise. I think its the best song that can be played on the piano if I may say so myself. We have a surprise also. Three lovely girls by the name of Rowan, Kestrel and Jade Redfern will be doing magic tricks. Maggie will sing a solo. Last but not least, Nissa will be twirling her staff. And thanks to Nissa's lessons, I will be joining her!" Hannah happily announced.

"Starting off we will have Poppy, Jez, Winnie, and Thea " Hannah said.

The four girls came out on the stage in matching outfits. Black short dresses with a bit of silver in some places. Another thing they had in common was that they all looked completely stunning. And they all sang beautifully except for Winnie being off on one note. They each had a microphone. Winnie was just singing the background. Out of them all, her voice was the lowest. Kind of like Posh. That's why she only got the background. When they were done they walked off the stage.

"Next up we have Keller doing flips and so on. Her and Rashel are like rubberbands or something"

Keller walked out. Or should I say did a front flip and cartwheels. Her movements were like a graceful feline. Always landing perfectly on her feet. Everyone watched silently with awe. She then flipped off the stage into a seat next to Galen.

"Now we have Blaise playing the flute. Blaise has been training as well as practicing the flute. She has managed to turn the flute into a weapon or a beautiful instrument. Or do her spells. But, you're lucky that she's just going to be playing normal music. Hopefully, Blaise?"

Blaise walked onto the stage with her beautiful shining flute. She started playing a soft melody. It was one of the most pleasant things any of them heard. It was truly beautiful. Even the careless Ash seemed mesmerized. After the final note she waited for about 10 seconds then walked off like a model aware of people staring at her. And she was thrilled. After Blaise walked off the stage Hannah walked back to the microphone and introduced Rashel and her piece Fur Elise By Beethoven. Ash, James and Delos hauled the Grand Piano up onto the stage while mumbling and grumbling words that can't repeated in public.

"Oooookay, thank you for getting the piano up there and teaching us very....colorful words" Hannah said while gesturing to the three. "As I said, Rashel will be playing the piano. So, why don't you come on up" Hannah said.

Rashel walked up. She placed herself comfortably on the piano seat. Then cracked her knuckles a bit too loudly. She took a deep breath and started playing. The music was just as beautiful as Blaise's flute. Rashel went back through her memories of having being sent to Piano Lessons by her foster parents. They thought she needed some kind of activity. They even watched her through the whole 2 hours. They had learned from the first time that she had to be watched. She ran out on the first lesson. But her teacher had said she was a fast learner. And played very well. Her piano teacher had been very kind to her. But some vampires had killed her. They had seen The Cat kill some vampires then walk to the Piano Studio. They had tried to make the Piano teacher talk but she had no idea what they were talking about so they just...killed her. Just like that. But that's in the past. Rashel had finished without even realizing it. Everyone clapped. She walked back to her seat with her head high. Her hair was up. Blaise had clamped it up with something. She didn't know what it was. It was a pin thing. But she looked enchanting. She had her bang down and wavy. Her green eyes shined brightly like a demoness with emerald eyes. Her dress was black and short. It helped bring out her eyes. Far prettier than how Buffy the artificial-blond idiot looked. It was very pitiful that Buffy needed Slayer Powers to slay. Tsk tsk Rashel thought. She took a seat by Quinn. He squeezed her hand. *You did great kitten* He said.

*You okay? that's right. We can take you to the doctors tomorrow morning. Eric said it's probably the flu. Thea had it when she came here but she got better. Gillian just got it from Thea. But they both got better cause there's a rumor that the witches can't get any more human sicknesses 'cause maybe the millenium is near. And many things are changing* During the time, Hannah had done her introduction for the three Redfern sisters. And they had done their Magic Tricks.

"Now Maggie will be singing her solo. Her solo will be ‘Let the Spirit Move Me ‘ It’s a song from Xena Warrior Princess. It is truly beautiful". Hannah said. " It sounds witchy or something" she added with a giggle.

Maggie walked up the steps. She took the microphone from Hannah. Maggie had on a red dress. It fit her perfectly. Her nails were also red. Her hair was down. But it was wavy and shining. Delos looked very proud of her. Everyone clapped loudly. Especially Delos who gave a very loud whistle. Maggie just giggled and kissed him. Then she sat down.

"Now Nissa and Hannah will be twirling the staff" Jez announced in a clear voice. Nissa walked out gracefully with her staff. It had a very VERY sharp end. She should have been nervous but she wasn't. Hannah then walked out with her staff. It wasn't sharp. She wasn't ready for a dangerous one yet. They started with a few easy figures but still artistic. Then after about 5 minutes Hannah walked off and Nissa did her own thing. She did a bunch of graceful moves, which would have been deadly, if she were using it in a fight. She twirled it around her. Then she put it down and stood there with her head down for about 5 seconds then she ran then kicked the wall. While still holding the stick with its end on the ground! Nissa put her other hand on the staff. It looked as if she was running on the walls. If people were standing next to her they would have been kicked. And kicked very hard. Then she somehow got enough strength to push off the wall and do three fast front flips and land on her feet with her staff on the ground. She looked as if she had done nothing but just stand there. Her hair was perfectly in place. She was the kind of person that could go through a mud slide, a typhoon, and a wrestling match and still come out without anything out of place. Everyone was impressed. Hannah walked back up and got the microphone from Jez.

"And finally we will have the guys read their poems" One by one the guys came up and said their poem. Soon the only people left were Quinn and Thierry. Thierry went before Quinn . Thierry walked onto the stage. And unfolded his paper. And started his poem.

I tried to find her when I came;
Death had the same design;
But the success was hers, it seems,
And the discomfit mine
I meant to tell her how I longed
For just this single time;
But the First One had claimed her again and again
And it had scarred him
To wander now is my abode;
To rest,- to rest would be
A privilege of hurricane
To memory me and me

Everyone clapped then he sat down. Quinn's turn was next. Quinn walked up the steps and unto the stage. He looked at his paper that was crumpled from being stuck in his pocket for about 2 hours. He cleared his throat and read.

"Peace, a word I had never known Love, a feeling I would never have friendship, a thing I would never give Peace Love Friendship These nonsense word meant nothing to me But when I found you, you helped me see All the things that meant nothing to me Peace no longer a word I didn't know But a joy only you could share Love, a feeling only you could give Friendship, a thing you are to me You are my Peace my Love My Friend my Life But one question is left with me. ‘Veux-tu me marier?"

Quinn looked at Rashel as if waiting for something. Rashel just blinked slowly and took a deep breath.

"Hey Quinn, what was that last part? I don't know French," asked Eric excitedly.

"Yeah what does that mean?" shouted Galen. Quinn didn't answer. But by the look on everyone else's faces, he knew they had taken French in some other class or program. Rashel was stunned. Instead of Quinn answering Eric and Galen, Rashel answered them. Her voice shaky and stunned.

"It means ......."Will You Marry Me" in french." said Rashel. Everyone looked at Rashel.

"Well, what do you say Rashel? Will you?" Then everyone looked at Quinn. Then looked back to Rashel for what she would say.

"oui, cheri" Rashel replied with a grin.

"Ahhh!!!! What the hell does it mean?! What was the answer?!" both Eric and Galen yelled. "It means "Yes!" Quinn shouted happily. "Well, their soulmates afterall. And they ARE linked together. Plus Rashel turned 18 last month. And god knows how old Quinn is." Kestrel mumbled while Rashel and Quinn embraced.

"So James Rasmussen! When well you be proposing?" Poppy demanded.

"uh......uh.......um.......later" James said while fidgeting with a rubberband.

Poppy giggled. "I hope later isn't in 20 years" James grabbed Poppy's hand and jerked her onto the bed and gave her a kiss.

*It's too bad you're a made-vampire. If you weren't, We could raise a family. But, unfortunately made vampires, can't reproduce.... But we can do the fun part of it* James telepathically said to Poppy. Poppy giggled then sighed.

*Unfortunately your right* She put her head on James shoulder. *On the bright side, I'll be able to have you to myself.*

"Hi there, is Dr. Royce Redfern there? He is? good. Could be possibly schedule an appointment for today? He’s very busy? Ya know, I think I forgot to tell you my name. This is Thierry calling. What’s that? He’s available? Yes, thank you very much. Goodbye." Thierry hung up the phone.

Being Lord of the Night World is so damn convenient. I can schedule appointments any time I want. ‘Cause I Rule! Yeah! Thierry thought to himself and chuckled.

Gillian walked through the halls and ready to turn left to go to the game room and relaxed. Before she went in she heard whistling and clapping. She went in to see what the ruckus was about. She looked at what all the guys were looking at. They were watching Xena: Warrior Princess.

"Xena and some blond are fighting. And the blond leaned over and she accidentally revealed what probably catches the guys eyes" said Nissa while pointing to her chest.

"Is that so?" Gillian asked while looking at the person sitting in the front row of the guys. Who were all trying to get closer to the TV. And the one in front was no other than David himself. She glared at him.

"Hi Gilly, I um, I was just watching so I could further my knowledge on the Greek times" said David nervously.

"Right..." Gillian said. And grinned at Nissa. Nissa shook her head and laughed.

"Soulmates.... Its the wonder of the World" Nissa said.

"nooooooooo!" someone screamed. Nissa ran to the next room. She looked around and found Maggie kneeling next to Hannah.

"God! I'm sorry Hannah. I messed it up again," Maggie said while taking the screwed up nailpolish off Hannah's fingers. "It's okay Maggie, I don't really need them painted. Really" Hannah said calmly. Gee's. Nissa thought.
