So as I edit and rearrange these chapters, chapter 11 is Tink getting ready for 'the ball.' Chapter 12 is now the annual meeting. So let's move on to chapter 13.
Chapter 13 is that ball that Tink has dreamed of attending, pretty much, since she was a little girl. Just like Cinderella needed to leave the ball by midnight, Tink needs to be out of there as well by a certain time, in order to get away from Tommy, his family, and hers. In less than an hours time, Tink is no longer in the US. As we move to chapter 14, we switch characters and hop into Derek's head. This is an awesome chapter; it's the first time we 'hear' from Derek. His personality just shines through his words, although I did not say in a good way. He is selfish, self-centered, egotistical, manipulative, and just plain old evil. Derek reflects back to the day Tink first arrived, gives us his take on all that has happened since until he brings us up to speed--present time. He then continues to get into the real 'meat' of this story. The major plot basically revolves around him and his plans. I won't get into all of this; it would be giving a lot away at this point. What I love is his take on everything. As he is so cocky, so full of himself, what's cool here is that there are things that we, the readers, now know, that he does not. By the time we move to chapter15, something I can tell you is that Derek is now in Australia. Here, some of the coolest stuff happens. Moving on... Chapter 16--we now hop into Tommy's head. Tommy, his family, and the ninjas are given devastating news. Chapter 17--we are now back in Tink's mind. I am now, obviously, being more evasive regarding what is going on, so as this chapter is outrageous, I cannot comment on it, sorry. Chapter 18--now we hop on over to Demonica's head. Love this chapter too; she recalls back to when Derek left the US and went home to Australia. She discusses how this alter ego was 'born,' what Derek has been holding over her head for years now, and what she intends to do. She gives her take, from her perspective, about what went down in the last few chapters, and gives us a glimpse of how powerful she truly is. Chapter 19--'head-hopping' back to Tommy. He is so overwhelmed and devastated, that he just wants to find a way to end his existence. This one has a 'hot & steamy' section, but as this chapter ends, Tommy leaves the US. There are four chapters and an epilogue left, so we'll just stop here for now. Until next time, dream on...
