The girls were silent for several moments.

"What was that about?" Kate questioned watching Selene trying to calm her self down.

"This..the lion king was Bellas favorite movie. Mom is still upset about her disappearance."

Kate straightened up with interest as she learned something new about her mother.

"Soo my mom is childish??" Kate says amused.

"She...she was a child" selene looked over at her. "When...when she ran away. The only memories they have of her..." selene walked over to her dresser.

Kate froze as she looked at Selene. "I...I didnt know"

Selene pulled out a picture and handed it to Kate.

Kate took it and stared at the picture with awe.

"This is mom?" She questioned.

"She didnt like pictures" Selene says with a shrug. "Doesnt mean that I dont have any" she added as she pulled out a picture book.

Kate and Selene sat on the bed as Selene opened the book up showing Kate the different pictures of Bella.

Selene was surprised when she saw Kate's eyes flash to red.

"I'll find out and get it back. I swear to the gods I will." Kate says in a cold dark tone.

Selene shivered at the tone and stepped back away from her a little fearfully.

Kate's eyes went back to normal when she saw the look on selene's face. She looked away with her head down. "I...I'm sorry."

"Y-you...just...your eyes." Selene stammered a little.

Kate sighed and rubbed her eyes. "Yeah...I know...it happens when I get angry. I try not to but..."

"J-just like his" Selene whispered with a conflicted look in her eyes.

Kate looked up at Selene with puppy dog eyes. "I'm sorry..."
