I wake up at the motel we stopped at last night. I should tell Charlie the truth but me.... about who my grandma is.... about who is after me... I should tell him all of it. I'm drowning in a sea of conflict. What will I do when the knights come for us? Charlie.... our.... our kid... I need to tell him. I need to tell him starting with the fact he is going to be a father. "Good morning my beautiful moon" I hear him say in my ear "I need to tell you something... many things actually Charlie," I say looking up to make sure he's listening "you're going to be a father a-" the door gets slammed shut. He left me just like that. We're only an hour away from town so maybe he wanted to do his job. I'll sit and wait and figure out what else to say.

"Well you see my grandma's Lilith so a lot of people and creatures want to hurt me and hurting you and the child is the best way of doing that," I say "no that's not the correct way of telling him" I shake my head "why not?" I hear a scratchy voice say "because it doesn't sound right and I don't know why he left last time... WAIT A MINUTE CHARLIE WHEN DID YOU GET HERE?!" I practically scream surprised by the fact Charlie came back... but I knew deep down he loved me and always will.
"I went to do my mission and get us some food I got this cute stuff for when she was older," he said holding a bag in it a dagger that has a dragon design a bodysuit, leggings, a side pack and a few small things that could also be helpful. "I figured you were hiding something and I know you have a knack for trouble then there's my job. I want are kid to be able to protect themselves" he said. "Than you Charlie," I say and hug him tightly.  The phone in our room rings Charlie makes me let go so he can answer it leaving me to pout. "Hello... hey kate... a boy named Timothy Wright is expected to be born in a week in Alabama what's that have to do with me? ... got it get information to see if he's material to be one of us I'll head that way soon" he hangs up "pack up were heading to Alabama the birth date expected is 11/17/1996 so we should head down their" I nod my head and pack getting ready for the long journey ahead. I jump in the car waiting for Charlie.

I'm in complete darkness I see a little girl in a white dress her eyes are hazel and her hair curly and wavy brown. "I love you, mommy," the little girl says. Is that... my child "what's your name?" I ask her "Kylie Luna when I get older and the family debt comes to me" she pauses and starts giggling evilly " I'll be known as lunie moon. The killer that kills thirteen on Friday the thirteenth and on every full moon I kill four people except on its peak on the second day you can see it I'll kill thirteen then but days it's both Friday the thirteenth and a full moon...
Hehehe... I'll kill one hundred ninety-one people"
She stopped laughing "you shouldn't have left me, mommy,... hehehehe you died at the hands of a six and eight year old" what does she mean "if dad never trained Timothy then he never would have killed him likewise to his friends" what happened to her I look back at my daughter to see a girl she looked like she tried to erase the curls her hair mostly wavy her eye honey brown her hair brown but looked like it was dipped in blood "your all the reason I turn out this way" she says I suddenly notice she wounded  "goodbye mother"
