Chapter 11 "repent"

3 months had passed since lawlent ran away.

Karen still Hans refinished her training but she knows how to track Lawlent down now using the book.

She discovered that the book has a page where she can see where a person is and find their location.

She wasn't sure what she would do once she finds him so she knew she was gonna have to tell sal about her little secret.

She hoped that things will go good.

She decided to go over to Lawlent's house at around 8:00pm to explain everything.

Karen studied her book of spells and made sure that everything she had was correct.

She can't mess this up.

She also hoped that sal would be able to explain to her about Lawlent.

The time eventually came and Karen called a taxi to take her to Lawlent's house.

She eventually got there

And headed over to the door

She took a deep breath then knocked.

Sal opened the door with a welcoming smile.

"Hey there Karen.i wasn't expecting to see you"

"Haha yeah...I just wanted to talk to you and Olivia about Lawlent if that's okay..."

"Yeah!cmon in!" Olivia said warmly and welcoming Karen inside

They say down together and Karen explained about we book and all and that she found his exact location. He was in a apartment in metropolis according to the book.

"If you look at my book lawlent is the red dot on the map" Karen said pointing to the map drawn in her book.

"Thank you Karen, we'll take care of the rest " sal said calmly.

"Oh and one thing I forgot I me ruin is my book mentioned something about rocks being able to affect lawlent? Isn't he just a normal person like me and you?" Karen added

"Well...Karen...lawlent is a little different..."

"Oh also the rock that supposedly made him rebellious and this way was red."

"Red?...interesting...well Karen I'm gonna go find him, you can head for rushing you out but I need to find my son" sal said

"Alright I'll be on my way"

Karen replied

She went outside and called a taxi that quickly arrived. She told the taxi to follow sals truck.

Sal went into the woods and later came out with a. Blue rock in his hand which he then put in his pocket.

"I wonder why he needs that." Karen thought

Sal got in his car and started to drive.

The taxi followed but at a good distance to not seem suspicious.

They eventually got the fancy apartment complex in metropolis

Sal got out of his truck and headed inside.

Karen got out of the taxi staying unnoticed from sal.

She followed him.

He went up 4 stories to reach Lawlent's apartment room.

Once he got there he knocked.

Karen watched from a distance

Lawlent opened the door

"What the hell do you want?" Lawlent rudely said

"Son...you're not yourself...that Rock is affecting your emotions. Unlike the blue rock that effects you physically, this one effects you emotionally.

"Really?!" Lawlent replied quite surprised.

"So will you take it off?" Sal asked

"Haha I wish I had found it sooner. Shows who I can really be." Lawlent said

"Son...you need to stop using your powers for bad..." Sal said firmly

"Powers?" Karen thought to herself.

"Dad you won't do anything to me...we both know who would win if we fought." Lawlent said

"Lets see about that " sal said

Sal quickly pulled out the blue rock

And aimed it in Lawlent's direction.

Lawlent's smirk quickly went away and he limped away then fell on the floor.

"How...how could you..." Lawlent said looking at his dad

"Son your not yourself..." Sal

Said

Lawlent was slowly trying to crawl away. His vision blurred an he felt really weak.

Sal tried to get the necklace off lawlent but the chain was made of the Rock material too and it was strong.

Karen saw what was happening and jumped into action.

She surprised both of them by jumping in and opening her book.

Pages flew everywhere

A laser came out of he brook and turned Lawlent's necklace into ashes.

Lawlent passed out after that.

Sal quickly put the rock way in a box.

"Normally I'd be mad thy you followed me here Karen but...I needed the help..." Sal said

" heh...yeah...you're welcome I guess?" Karen replied unsure about what to say.

"You didn't uhh...hear our conversation did you..." Sal asked worried

"Actually I did..."

"...well I can't hide the truth forever...Lawlent is adopted and everyone knows that but thing is...Lawlent is from another planet...these meteor rocks seems to be his weakness..."

"Really? That's...actually really cool..."

"You think...that's cool?" Lawlent said waking up.

"...I'm your best friend...how would I feel about it?"Karen replied

"I...I thought you would think I was some sort of freak...how could..."Lawlent's voice got softer and he was fast asleep.

"Well...I'm gonna get him home...man this is gonna be difficult considering all the stairs." Sal said

"Trust me its way easier than that."

Karen said pulling out her book

She hooded with her head and the book flipped to a page automatically.

Then the book began to glow and pages flew everywhere untill the pages made a box around around them.

Sal was amazed.

Then all the pages fell to the ground and they were in Lawlent's backyard.

"Wow...that was amazing..."

Said

All the pages on the floor suddenly all returned to Karen's book. And it stopped glowing.

"Studying this thing for 3 months...I should know how to do stuff like that." Karen said proudly.

"We'll...damn..." Sal said concerned.

"What's wrong ?" Karen asked confused.

"My truck is still in metropolis..." Sal said

"Haha right I forgot about that. Don't worry just leave it to me. Get Lawlent inside."

Sal brought Lawlent to the couch to rest.

Karen was working on getting sals truck back to the house.

Just then Karen realized how carried away she was by the book that she forgot to go back to the moon to talk to nul-el,Lawlent's father.

She also remembered about the stone that she had taken from Lawlent. The weird grey one with the symbol on it.

"Once I'm done with this I need to go back...I'm so clueless...it's been 3 months...and that stone...I feel like its meant for Lawlent...I'm gonna finish this up and head back to the moon."
