Fighting Academy by Fire of Hearts (Closed)

Bella rolls her eyes at him and then created shadow in her hand. "Oh like I care about family issues...I don't see why he's Scorn's favorite anyways....Jace is annoying, Sethos doesn't have complete control but maybe that's why Flower is so close to him." She said sighing and then threw the knife at him without a care and it hit his heart. "By the way, I was ordered to kill you."
 
(Oh mai gosh it is! We started on the 9th of January a year ago. Woh O.o )





Jace gave Flower an odd look as she told him he didn't want to know what harder meant, then as they began walking he nodded, looking to the floor with a grin, "Yeah, you're right, I'd rather keep my head attached to my neck if you don't mind" He barely chuckled as Flower mentioned the evil version of herself turning her clothes black, but listened seriously as she began her spoken thought process.


He shrugged as she finished, "It's not that odd that he's alive again, I mean, Sethos brought Kol back with the intense hatred we have for him, and this Master guy sounds like a class A bast*rd, so I'm sure plenty of people hate him enough to bring him back to life so they can kill him themselves. They might have just screwed up like we did and accidentally let him get away" Jace didn't even notice he was using 'we' in his sentences; obviously implying both he and Sethos.


----------


Faye listened to Nick seriously. She didn't want to get bitten. Not only would being a full vampire suck ass, but she remembered when Raina had bitten her - before she knew they were related of course - and it had damn hurt, even if it didn't kill her. She nodded as he kissed her forehead sweetly, "Okay." Her voice is quiet, serious even, and she glances around afterwards, as if looking for someone.


"When is she getting here?" She glanced back to him with this question, her tone half-way between worried and neutral.


----------


Raina was standing idly by as Alex and Sheena greeted her family - Sheena seeming a bit withdrawn - but when Alex walked over to her she glanced with him with dis-interest plastered across her face. When his smile dropped she wondered why she hadn't expected it. She was glad when he said he wasn't going to give her a lecture, she'd had enough of those already. But his question threw her. And what did he mean her answer wasn't being judged by him? Was there some sort of secret microphone attached to him and someone else was judging her answer instead? The possibility of not being judged at all didn't come to Raina's mind. She had always been judged.


"Good. I've already had enough damn lectures from Macal." She paused before answering his question, should she lie? He told her not to. But she was never really one to do what she was told unless her life was being threatened. Crossing her arms, she answered back with a slightly snappy tone, "Your help? I don't need your damn help. I'm fine on my own; always have been. I just wish you damn idiots would realise that and leave me the hell alone" Lies had always came easy to Raina, but for some reason this one was proving trickier to pull off than usual. She glanced behind Alex to briefly watch Mabel, who was currently grinning up at Sheena, speaking to her about something Rai was hoping wouldn't come back to bite her in the butt.


"Anyway, it's better for you and your little family if I just stay out of it." Of course, by this Raina meant she would just screw it up. Just like how she screw up having her own family.


----------


Sofia nods to Alex after shaking his hand with a smile, "Thank you." She says this before he walks over to her daughter, deciding to give them privacy as she turns back to Sheena. She had noticed the girl's reluctance to speak to them, and quickly chalked this up to loss of her family. She wouldn't be surprised if she was right, Mabel had told her a little about the school's inhabitants, and it sounded like most of them had lost loved ones.


Mabel is the first to break the silence - of course - with a grin in Sheena's direction as she informs them she is Macal's daughter, "I know. I'm Rai's guardian angel, so I know who she's met and what she even feels most of the time. I know Faith, you, Macal, Alex, Liza - she seems really fun - um, Chameleon - I love that name, Faye, Flower, Jace and Sethos, Atherton---" She is interrupted by her mother as she places her hand on her talkative's daughter's shoulder. It's understandable, the girl hasn't been able to talk to anyone besides her Mother and the occasional other angel for seven years. "She gets the idea sweetie." She looked to Sheena with an almost apologetic smile, trying to explain her child's rambling, "Mabel and I died seven years ago, she was assigned to be Raina's guardian angel five years ago. Your Father Macal was somehow able to bring me and Mabel over from the afterlife for a few hours so we could visit Rai one last time."


Mabel chirps up now, "Yeah, we need to tell her off and make sure she stops killing humans!"


(Okay, can you just give some notice when you are going to skip though? Sofia and Mabel will only be around for less than a day anyway, so I want them and Rai to have a proper goodbye before we skip)
 
Flower looks at Jace. "No, no you don't understand...he was the most feared vampire ever! He was more powerful then Scorn...in fact even scorn served him!" She said and then opened the door. She looked inside and then sighed relieved her room was seemingly left alone. She looked back at Jace. "No one would hate him enough to bring him back....if they do he'd kill them first." She said and then walked in. She opened her closet checking her clothes real quick. "Ah! It's here..." She said with a smile pulling out her normal cloak and tunic outfit. She laid it on the bed. "Besides only a key holder can enter the secret place and only I or my father can open it." She said looking at Jace.


Nick looks at Faye and then shrugs. “Don’t know but I think I’ll be soon.” He said and then scratches his head. “I can feel it.” He said and then looked behind him a second. He sighed stretching out his arms.
 
Sheena blinks, somewhat taken aback by Mabel's continued chatter and enthusiasm. For a dead little girl, she sure seems lively to Sheena. Yeah, definitely she and Liza would get along great, she would replace Little Batman as Liza's new bestest friend. She gave the girl a small smile, which drops when she mentions Atherton. If she had watched Sheena and Raina with Atherton, she had watched her with Evangeline. If she had watched her with Evangeline...and she was dead...was it possible that she was in contact with Lina now? Were they in the same plane of existence? Did that mean Sheena could bring her back...apologize? Explain? Could she...


The idea is as intimidating as it's exciting, and Sheena does not mention it at first. She listens to Sofia's explanation and nods, distracted, but Mabel's words quickly refocus her attention as she turns to stare with sudden intensity at Raina, blurting out, "You're killing HUMANS?"


She shakes her head, not even waiting for a response. "Whatever...let's just go see Faith and my dad already." Let THEM deal with it, the last thing Sheena wants to handle right now, as much as she dislikes Raina at times, is having to possibly take care of her like she had Lina.


She waits until they have already migrated into the academy and are standing before her living quarters, waiting for Macal or Faith to answer the door, before she turns to Sofia, whispering in her ear. "Have...you've seen my sister then, right? Evangeline? Have you...since what happened...have you seen her again?" She is almost holding her breath.


(no is a perfectly fine answer, either way though)


It is not Faith or Macal, however, but Liza who opens the door. Her face wrinkles with confusion as she takes in her sister, Alex, Raina, and two people she doesn't know, and she crosses her arms. "I don't even know you guys. Plus also Mama says I can't even hang out with you no more Raina 'cause you are so bad."


Sheena looks at Liza now too with some curiosity. What exactly was going on?
 
*Before Alex leads them inside, he stares into Raina's eyes for a moment then smirks at her.* Oh my god you're so full of crap Raina. *Turning back to everyone else and smiling again* Ok lets go I got what I need. *When Liza opens the door and declares that she can't play with Raina anymore, he kneels down and pats the top of her head.* It's ok Liza, they're here to see your parents..This is Raina's younger sister Mabel and their mother Sofia, they want to thank your father for their reunion.


*By the time Alex explains, Macal walks out of kitchen with a massive sandwich in hand, big enough to feed at least four people. He starts to speak with a mouth full of food but catches himself and after swallowing the mouthful he taken and places the sandwich down. He steps forward extending his hand to Sofia.* Ah I see you both made it across ok, it's always a bit tricky when you try to summon two souls to one place. Liza why don't you tell your mother that we have honored guest. You must be Sofia and you. *kneeling down and pats Mabel's head* You must be Raina's much much older sister? *winks at her* I can tell cause you're so tall. *He makes no effort to make eye contact with Raina it almost seems like he doesn't even acknowledges her in the room. Why don't we all sit and talk, I'm sure there is much you have to say.
 
Liza looks up at Mabel and Sofia with renewed interest, then smiles at them, excluding Raina from her smile, as she holds out her hand to them politely for them to shake. "Hi. I'm Liza Kathleen Cord. Raina is supposed to be my sister but she's been so bad and done bad things so I can't even play with her anymore. I think you need to ground her and make her good again, Raina's Mama. She has been BAD."


She says all this very seriously before turning to Mabel, her smile widening. "Ooooh you look little. Are you little? Can we play? I'm five. How old are you? There aren't many kids who aren't real big around here. Except my boyfriend Little Batman. And my friends Ty and Z but they haven't been around much no more. Let's go play with Little Batman!"


Macal has asked her to get Faith, however, so she says to Mabel, "I'll be right back. I'm getting my mama. Maybe she can play with us too." She darts off shouting for Faith, and emerges with her a few moments later, dragging her by the hand. "You gonna play with us, Mama?"


"Not right now, Liza. If Mabel wants to play, that's fine, but she probably wants to stay here with her mother and sister," is Faith's somewhat distracted reply. Her eyes are on Raina more prominently than Sofia or Mabel. She knows she will have to decide what to do with Raina, and soon, or all her words to the other students will be nothing but bluffing. What, is the question.


Sheena remains quiet, hoping that Sofia will find time to answer her question before they all start the discussion.
 
Mel had found her way to the roof of one of the towers. With her chin resting on her knees, she began thinking about what her next move should be. She didn't want to wait until Lil gave her enough reason to attack but if she didn't, then most likely people would interfere. It'd probably be better if she didn't have to take on too many people at once. God knows how well that turned out for her. Still, Mel was a bit afraid to think of what Lil had to do first before she was allowed to kill that that @#$%ing b*tch. Was someone going to have to die? Or was injured just enough?


She hoped that the skank would act soon. Mel just wanted to get her body back and leave this hell hole already. She'd have to eventually anyway. This place was like the others. There were a few people who treated her with a few shreds of respect but the majority still believed her to be an eye sore. It was only a matter of time before they chased her out. No one would want a murderer to stay. The problem was what she was going to do about Riff and Vash. Both seemed to be getting attached to the people here. She'd probably leave them behind. What Riff said probably made it clear that they didn't want to follow her.


Letting out a deep sigh, she lied down on the roof and looked up at the night sky. She then began pointing to random clusters of stars. "There's Alice who was drowned for stopping a nobleman from hunting a tiger. That one's Shun who tried to kill a corrupt councilman by himself and failed. And that one's Maria who was burned at the stake for becoming pregnant out of wedlock." There were plenty more names and each one was etched into Mel's mind. These were the people she avenged. Those were the deaths of people who had been forgotten by everyone else. But it didn't matter what her reasons were. She was a murderer. She was evil. And the only people who accepted that were . . .


Mel stood up and shouted at the top of her nonexistent lungs. "RIFF YOU BIG FAT IDIOT!!! WHO THE HELL NEEDS SOMEONE AS INCOMPETENT AS YOU!!! GO DIE YOU JERK!" Letting all that out made her feel a bit better.
 
Sky suddenly came down and landed beside Mel. She tilted her head and then blinked at Mel. She folded her wings and then sat comfortably beside her. She was Flower's bird but Sky had free will and sometimes disappeared for days on end. Sky was the type of bird to come when needed. She only happened to be in the area and saw a doll screaming as loud as she could. Sky looked at her and then started grooming herself, her large beak sliding against her feathers straightening them out.
 
Mabel giggles lightly as her head is patted by Macal, her grin grows as he declares her to be Rai's older sister; because she is much taller. She of course knows this isn't the truth, but she plays on it. "Well Mummy says I'm really actually twelve and not five because I was five when I died but that was seven years ago, and seven plus five makes twelve." She pulls a face now though, "But I'm kind of glad I'm not thirteen because Mummy says when you're thirteen that's when you want to kiss boys and stuff, but boys are gross, especially when they pick their noses."


Mabel shakes Liza's hand as it is offered, much like her mum had done, "Hi, I'm Mabel, um, Sharpe. Raina's my older sister too, she's bad sometimes, but I still love her a ton." Liza then directs her babble at Mabel, and she grins even wider as she is questioned. "I'm five too! But I don't have a boyfriend, boys are yucky."


----------


Sofia waits until all introductions are done before glancing to Sheena curiously. Her sister? Mabel was the one who dealt with Raina's life, helping her when she could, unfortunately Sofia wasn't chosen as a guardian angel - only few are - but she knew of Evangeline. She speaks in a light whisper to Sheena, so that the others don't hear, just before Macal enters the room, "Your sister, Evangeline Sadovsky, joined us a while ago, only partly, as she was also somewhere else, but her soul and spirit joined us a long time ago. She's very sweet, kind as well, it was just a shame she had to leave this world so early." Her voice is soft, gentle, as she knows this will be hard for Sheena - losing a sister is never easy. She is of course talking about the child Evangeline, the girl who died after being attacked by Atherton that fateful day, not the vampire Evangeline.


She then turns to Macal as he addresses her, smiling politely and taking his hand in a shake. She watches him with her youngest, smiling as Mabel grins back at the man, then also shakes Liza's hand gently, she grins at the child as she talks on. She sounds an awful lot like her Mabel, except of course the accent difference. "I agree, Liza is it? Raina will certainly be grounded." Sofia says this as she glances at the girl in question, giving her a grin with a twinkle in her eye, Raina chooses then to walk over to her Mother.


----------


Raina made no comment on Alex's words to her earlier, and has been ignoring all the Cords'; hating how much it stung when they did the same to her. But she wanted this. She needed this. For them to hate her. So this is what spurred on her to walk over to her Mother and take her wrist lightly, "Mum, can we please go?" She sounds more like a whiny child then an aggravating teen and Sofia shakes her head at her, "No sweetie, you need to at least say Thank You to Macal for bringing us back." Raina shakes her head, "Nuh-uh. I don't say Thank You" Mabel runs up beside her sister then, prodding her with a scheming grin, "And that's really rude Rai-Rai! Liza's right, we should ground her Mummy!" "I'm not staying here!" Raina declares this, turning to leave as Mabel shakes her head, "Nuh-uh!" She grabs her big sister by the hand, then proceeds to tug her back, Raina pulls back as well, trying to pull Mabel in the direction of the door, and for a few moments it's just both girls tugging on each other. Then, with a grin Mabel lets go and Raina falls back on her butt. "Hey!!" Raina has little time to protest though, as Mabel then leaps on the girl and begins trying to tickle her to death.


"Mabel! Stop it!" "I'm not going to stop until you promise to stay Rai-Rai!" Raina is tossing on the floor now, trying to hold back her laughter, and she succeeds, finally giving up, "Okay okay! Uncle! I give!" Mabel leaps off her easily then, and grins up at Sofia, "It still works Mummy!" She addresses her next line to Macal, "I never thought I'd get to tickle Rai-Rai again, thank you!" She turns to Raina now, pouting lightly, "But you've gotten worse at it Rai! You used to laugh and wriggle like a worm and your face would go all red, remember? One time I wanted the pink dolly but you wanted it too so I---" "I remember Mabs!" She speaks quickly, trying to kill her embarrassment before it grows.


Raina stands up, letting out an 'annoyed' puff of air as though that would make up for what just happened.


(Lemme know if I need to change Sofia's answer, she's basically saying that Evangeline's soul/spirit joined them when Evangeline was turned. As I'm assuming by your posts that she lost her soul at this point. Oh, I'll reply to Flower and Nick tomorrow, I reallly got to go to bed, early start tomorrow)
 
Mel looked down at the bird who landed next to her. "What the hell do you want?" At first she thought it was a random eagle, but on closer inspection, Mel recognized the keyholder princess' pet. She glared at Sky. "Leave before I make you a kabob. I'm still a little pissed off at that owner of yours." No. That wasn't fair. Mel shouldn't resent an animal for the things their owner did. She knelt down and started stroking Sky's feathers. As with just about everything else, she couldn't feel anything. Whether they were cold or warm, smooth or bristly, she had no clue. "Advocate of humans, my a**. She's just like everyone else. Hateful hypocrites with their noses so high up in the air that they can't bother to look at what they've stepped in. I hope she steps in sh*t."


Mel remembered when Riff had initially suggested that they come here. He talked about the keyholder queen who supported the nearly extinct humans and welcomed them with open arms, who even decreed it a law that no humans could be killed. He said that if it was here, Mel could be treated like a normal girl and not the hated Princess of Lucifer. And although she should've known better after nearly seventeen years of persecution, she had gotten her hopes up.


Yet when they had gotten here, none of the claims he had made came true. There was no one to ask her side of the story. There was no one who welcomed her. There was no one who tried to understand her even the slightest. Instead, not even a month since they arrived and she was attacked. And the oh-so-great Flower, supposed advocate for humans, had Mel legally classified as a demon just so that it was okay for those stupid vampire twins to kill her. Of course that would @#$%ing piss her off. Even in her eyes, Mel was not worth saving.


Mel eyed the bird again. "You should probably go back to your owner. It's not like there's anything you can do for me anyway."
 
Sky screeched at her. She stayed there. She looked up at the moon. She then looked at Mel. Sky couldn't talk but she sure wished she did. She looked as a pair of hands appeared and pulled the rest of a human form up. "Sky you crazy bird! I'm a dog not a-" She looked at the thing beside her. "uhh Sky?" She stood up and put her hands into her pockets.


Sky flew to Hunter’s shoulders. Hunter sighed and then petted her. “Now I see….Geez hunter you’re such a bother.” She looked at Mel and then blinked. “So you’re Mel huh?” She said and then kneeled down. “Master was real upset after she heard what happened. She said and then looked at Sky. They looked as if they were talking to each other but their mouths didn't move.
 
"I don't think you look that old," Liza tells Mabel bluntly after looking her over again, as though to make sure. "My daddy is just silly. He calls me mouse and I'm not even a mouse."


She looks confused by Mabel's continued talk, then makes a face, giggling as she shakes her head at her. "Noooo I'm not never gonna kiss no boys. That's yuck and bad. And anyway Little Batman just sleeps with me, that's all. He don't kiss me. Batman don't kiss! But he's not yucky. Unless he's playing in mud. But that's kinda fun even if I don't like taking baths 'cause I don't like Mama washing my hair. Are you really thirteen? I'm not never gonna be that big 'cause you know what? I'm not never growing up. Aren't I lucky?"


Liza watches with her hands on her hips as Raina refuses to thank Macal, then is put into place by Mabel. She giggles, smiling as she points at Raina. "She kicked your ass, I think. Plus also, I didn't even hear you say thank you, and you should. 'Cause my daddy is nice to you and he loves you and you are being bad and mean and you know what? I might even have to kick your ass even though I don't want to. 'Cause sisters don't let sisters be bad....oooh you know what would be a cool, cool wicked cool nickname for you? Rainbow!!!!"


"If anyone's kicking anyone's ass, Liza, it's me," Faith breaks in, but she is watching Raina's interaction with her mother and sister too, eyes narrowed thoughtfully. She still has her eyes on them rather than Raina as she says aloud, "I don't think there's anything to talk about. No offense, but you'll both be gone soon, and she-" avoiding Raina's name- "is still here, my responsibility, my liability, and she'll have to be dealt with as I decide. We're not talking about a minor rule breaking here. She killed a girl in cold blood and honestly, it's too late for either of you to do anything about it short of giving her life back, and I'm thinking that's beyond your ability. So, nice to meet you and all, but I'm not sure why you're here...and she sure as hell doesn't deserve a special privilege like that," she says to Macal pointedly, turning to him now.


Sheena is ignoring everyone but Sofia, her eyes locked on her alone as she takes in what she's just told her. Her sister has joined them....her sister is sweet? It must be Lina before she was turned she is talking of...the innocent. The human.


Could she be happy? Could she be okay...could she be watching Sheena, like Raina's family has watched her?


There is so much she wants to ask, so much she wants to know, but she can only catch her breath as tears fill her eyes. Faith, seeing this, but not hearing the conversation, is concerned, and doesn't want her to stick around, knowing that it is unfair to let Raina, who Sheena has been at odds with, see her while this vulnerable.


"Sheena, can you see if we have any drinks for Mabel and Sofia?" she gives her the opportunity to escape, and Sheena takes it quickly, heading into the kitchen area and leaning against the counter as she takes in several more breaths, half praying that Evangeline can see her right that very moment.
 
Mel looked at Hunter skeptically. "If she is so sorry, how come she hasn't said so to my face yet? Or am I so lowly that it doesn't matter? Everyone else has apologized or tried to. Well except those vampire princes who actually blamed the whole thing on me." She rolled her eyes when those two came to mind. She felt uncomfortable with Hunter bowing to her. Only Riff does that and it's still uncomfortable. "Get up. It's not like I'm an actual princess or anything. It's just a stupid title. It doesn't mean anything." (Actually it kind of does but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.) She turned around so that she didn't have to look at them. "Anyway, you can tell that master of yours that I'll be out of her hair soon enough. As soon as I get my body back, I plan on leaving. It's not like I belong here anyway." (She's not going to leave but I hope she does find a reason to stay eventually. If it comes down to it, I'll probably make it so that she stays for some small reason or one that I can't say yet.)
 
Hunter looks at her. "Flower finds it hard to face her mistakes. She fears your reaction....and she fears you'll continue to hate her." She sighed a bit. "And I wasn't bowing I was sitting." She said and then looks at her. "Flower will face you soon...she does care it's just hard right now." she said and then looked up at the moon. "Mel...do you know much about Flower?" She asked and then lightly smiled. "I would be surprised if you knew all about her life. It might explain why she choose to classify you as a demon." (Well Flower could face her and ask for forgiveness...she would even ask her to stay.)
 
"I know that she's said to be the one who helps humans. I know that I came here hoping she'd do the same for me. And I know that I hoped that she wouldn't let this stupid title get to her. Other than that I just know what everyone else does. Lost her parents at a young age, forced to go to war as a child, captured by vampires long ago and tortured." Mel looked back up at the sky. There were barely any clouds anywhere, making it easy to see the stars. "I don't know much about your master. But then again, what does she know about me? What does she know about the forgotten people who are killed everyday by the greed and pride of those with power?"


Mel hated being called a demon. She was human, goddamnit. She had always been called a demon, determined as evil even before she left the womb. She turned to face Hunter again. "Afraid of her mistakes? If we cannot face our mistakes then we might as well be walking backwards. Mistakes are the only way you truly learn. But if she's afraid to apologize just because she's afraid of me hating her, then I don't need that apology."


People hated Mel wherever she went but that never stopped her from trying to help those who've been wronged. It didn't stop her from killing people that needed to die. If such a fear was keeping Flower from just apologizing, then Flower was a bigger coward than Mel had thought.


She did hate Flower. She hated everyone but Flower was near the top of the list. It was more of an envy powered hate though. Whether it was her family, her subjects or even the vampire royalty, everyone loved Flower. The girl was surrounded by love. Even now, she had someone trying to defend her. No matter what she's been through, the keyholder always had someone there to return to. Someone who'd comfort and love her. And Mel who had always been surrounded by hatred, of course she'd hate anyone who had what she couldn't. It just seemed . . . unfair.


Tired of discussing this anymore, Mel stepped to the edge of the roof. "Well, I'm going to leave first." And with that, she jumped off and into the window beneath. She then began walking through the poorly lit halls of the academy, just wanting this to just be over with.


(Sorry if she seems mean. Would it be too much to ask that Flower not have spies following Mel? Only because the thought kind of disturbs me.)
 
*Alex leans against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest, staring at the floor as he listens to everyone, when Faith notes that Raina shouldn't have been given such a powerful gift even after he's pretty sure Macal knew what she did, even he has to question his mentor.* That's a good point Macal why did you give this chance to Raina after what she did and considering you've never done such a thing for me...So why her?


*Mac is quiet for a moment before turning to Faith* I know what Raina did and I haven't forgiven her for it but I made a promise to her, that she would have 24 hours with her mother and sister, despite what you all think, this was not something just for Raina, don't you all think that Sofia and Mabel deserved another chance to see Raina? As for why I've never done that for you Alex, that is my business and that's all I have to say on the matter. Now both of you be polite to our guest..Whatever punishment you have in store for Raina can wait...Especially since you're not even sure what to do, besides once the soul of my friend fully recovers back at the Citadel I will be fully informed of her crimes. Till then I suggest we wait till all the facts are in, after all the only thing we know is what Raina has told us..And I'm no longer convince she's a cold blooded killer. *His eyes flash* Her aura does not look like that of a killer. She looks like a little girl that's trying real hard to be a lone wolf badass but in reality she's a little girl that misses here mother and baby sister...Rather or not this is the real Raina, I can't tell..I'm a bit off my game lately.
 
(Just thought I'd let you guys know Rai's offical birthday is the 18th of January both in the RP and real life xD Though in real life she'll be one year old (made her 18th of January last year) but in the RP she'll be turning 18)


As Flower and Jace entered their room, Jace immediately plopped himself down on his bed, staring at the ceiling as he listened to the key-holder chatter. He sighed, well this made no sense. "Don't we have enough power crazy psycho's running around here?" He chuckled lightly, "I'm surprised half of us got into the school, including me." He looked to her, noticing she was about to change clothes, "Oh, do you want me to leave?" He rolled over on his bed, his face now pressed into the duvet so all he could see was black, "I used to just do this when my mum changed in the same room as me." His voice was muffled but still audible. He grinned and turned his head, but so he was facing the opposite direction from where Flower was.


"I mean, this bed is just soooo comfy, I could just...I could just fall asl.." He began fake snoring, rather loudly, with his eyes squeezed shut.


---------------


​Faye frowns, looking around at Nick's words, "You can feel it?" Damn, how long did they have? Long enough to go have some fun first? "Is Deathwish gonna say hello to her as well? Or is she just here to see you?" She couldn't see Deathwish anywhere, but he usually showed up at the very last second anyway.


"Wait, do I have to speak all posh when she arrives?"





--------------


"No. Please don't call me Rainbo--" "Yeah! That's a really pretty nickname!" Mabel chirps up, agreeing with Liza as she responds to her earlier questions as well, "Well, I'm actually five too, and I'm not growing up anymore either because I'm dead, but I've been dead for seven years so really I'm twelve." Raina and Sofia listened to Faith talk, then Raina nodded, turning to her Mum, "See Mum, we don't have to stay here anymore because there's nothing to talk about!" "Killed a girl in cold blood?" Mabel spoke up now, eyebrows furrowed in confusion, and Raina turns to look at her, Mabel glances up at her, then her eyes flood with realisation, "Are you talking about Abbey Lockwood?" Raina frowns at her, "I didn't know her name." "The girl you hurt in the alleyway?" Raina nods now, her expression clouded, "But you di--" "Didn't care? I know Mabs, let's go."


Raina was getting more uncomfortable by the second. This was so conflicting. She needed to be a non-caring, badass b*tch around the Cords'. But she couldn't do that infront of her Mother and Mabel, she couldn't do it to them. What was the point in killing that girl if it was just going to all unravel within a day anyway?


Raina hid her inner worry as Macal spoke of his friend in Citadel, fully informed? Does that mean he'll find out it was a pity kill? Damn. Why does he have to be so annoyingly resourceful! She hasn't met any of the Cord's eyes while being here, and had only spoken to Alex, but that was because he had spoken to her first, but now with Macal's last statement the vampire scoffs, her eyes dragging up to stare into his eyes, even if he wasn't looking at her. "My aura doesn't look like a killer's aura?" She rolled her eyes, "That is such bullsh-poop." Danggit. Her defending her right to be a killer sure as heck fell flat when she couldn't even say bullshit in front of two five year olds. Oh well. Might as well carry on. "And if I was going to be a lone anything, it would not be a lone 'wolf' Wolf's are gross, they slobber everywhere and they absolutely reek, not to mention they growl like a retarded puppy."


Mabel giggled lightly and Raina glanced to look at her, "What's so funny Mabs?" "You sound so American, doesn't she mummy?" Sofia was smiling lightly, and she nods in response, "Incredibly." Raina frowned, "Yeah well spend about five or six years with them and it tends to happen" Mabel ran over to her sister, grinning up at her, "You're not even English anymore Rai" "I am so!" Raina's accent had slipped back as she began to talk with her sister, "I bet you couldn't speak in an English accent anymore" Mabel is grinning, almost bouncing on her toes as she teases her big sister, "Of course I can! I am right now, so ha! And there's no point speaking in my accent here anyway because most of the kids here are American."


She swoops up Mabel into her arms, resting the girl on her hip as Mabel snuggles her face against Raina's neck, grinning at Macal and Faith with playful black eyes, "Well me and my mummy want to say Thank You even if Rai-Rai won't, so Thank You and I promise to try my hardest to make Rai better again."
 
(ha, my birthday is the 19th! guys...what day is it? Because I know amdreams wants to have her thing by Dec 23 and I know Flower wants a birthday, and now Raina too...honestly, I don't mind at all if we skip any Christmas parties and the like, it looks like we'll be having a lot of parties anyway and I'm kind of over Christmas lol)


Faith raises an eyebrow at Macal's somewhat gruff response to Alex, because it's a question she herself has never considered and she thinks Alex has a perfect right to ask it of him. Macal has never brought back Sheena's mother either, or her sister before Evangeline showed up on her own. As loyal as Alex has been to him, he's never granted him the right to see his family either...and yet Raina, who clearly, obviously does not deserve it, who has just killed someone, is given that right? Faith knows her husband is fond of the girl, but she doesn't think this to be right at all.


Still, she doesn't question him in front of all the others. He must have his reasons...and what he is saying seems right, though Faith cannot understand how it can be. Had Raina not really killed the girl after all? How was that possible? But if she hadn't, why is she so intent on convincing them she has? Yet why would she be so clearly a child and sister, not some kind of souless killer with no heart, in the presence of her family, and even Liza, if she had done such a thing?


The girl was incredibly stubborn...was she doing this just to prove a POINT?


Her suspicion is increased when Raina wont' even swear in front of Mabel and Liza, cutting herself off mid word, and she openly stares at her. The girl can kill someone without blinking an eye, but can't say the word sh*t? She can play and giggle with a child after murdering an innocent?


It doesn't look or feel right, so how can it be?


"Wow! THERE'S ANOTHER GIRL LIKE ME, MAMA!!!!" Liza hollered with delight at Mabel's explanation of her age, grabbing her hands and jumping up and down, before she stopped and thought about it. "Well except I'm not dead. But other than that she is JUST LIKE ME, YAY!!!"


She giggles as Mabel teases Raina, joining in. "Rainbow Rainbow Rainbow....get Rainbow Mabel!!!"


Sheena is staying away from all of this in the kitchen and so luckily does not overhear Raina's comment about wolves and puppies. She can hear Mabel and Liza shouting and tries to think of this to distract herself from her own almost obsessive thoughts of Evangeline and her current whereabouts. How is it possible for her to be so sad and so happy all at once?


"You didn't kill her, did you?" Faith takes a shot finally, looking at Mabel and Sofia now as well as Raina. "Don't try to bullshit me anymore. You didn't kill that girl. Not like you want me to think, anyway. Come out with it, because I'm going to find out anyway. What happened?"
 
Flower looks at Jace and then giggled at him. "I see..." She said and then threw a pillow on him. "I'll just go to the bathroom." She said opening the door to the bathroom. She knew Jace probably wouldn't look but still for Flower's comfort she had to. She closed the door and then started to get dressed. She smiled getting her normal clothes on. She pulled her hair out of the tunic. She looked at the door smiling slightly.


Nick looks at Faye. “Yeah he will…sort of…” He said and then rubs his head. “And no you don’t have to.” He said and then looked around. “Come on let’s go take a walk.” He said and then started walking towards the door. “Unless you want to do something else.” He said and then pushed his hair out of his face with a prince like smile.
 
A spider in the bathroom came out of the shower. It was huge! As tall as a medium size dog! It looked at Flower and then attacked jumping on her and then tried to bite her. The spider was black and it's fangs dripped with poison.
 
Flower screamed and then kicked the spider off. She punched the thing and then ran to the door and tried to open it. "YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" She yelled and then blasted light at the spider's eyes. She turned to the spider. "JACE I NEED MY SWORD NOW!" She said extremely panicked. She looked at the spider and then swallowed. "Bella I am so killing you for this..." She said and then pushed her hair put of her face still panting. The spider was huge and it was only getting angrier. Man where a giant shoe when you need one!


Flower looked out…if she continued to lean against the door then she’d fall as soon as Jace opened the door. She jumped up and then jumped on the head of the spider. “Ok …bad thing….it’s huge and it’s poisons….good thing….if I’m on it, it can’t get me. Bad thing….I have no weapons….good thing…Jace is outside….bad thing….bella hid my sword!” She groaned with frustration. “Bad thing is this thing is creeping me out!”


Nick suddenly heard someone coming down the hall. He wasn’t shocked to see his mother but he was shocked to see a small child with her, a little girl. Nick shifted his weight uncomfortably and then looked at Faye. He looked at his mother who smiled, showing her huge fangs.


Isabel (Nick’s mother) walked over to Nick. “Nick, how nice to see you!” She said and pulled Nick into a hug. It was obvious Nick was uncomfortable with his mother. She looked at Faye. “Ah the firey girlfriend your father was telling me about.” She said and then looked at the little girl beside her. “Oh Nick…I’d like you to meet your little sister.” She said and then looked as Nick froze.


“L-little sister?! Mother!” He said and then pointed at her. “B- but….” He put his hand on his forehead. “…”


Isabel looks at Nick. “Well you have so many brothers I wanted a daughter. Sorry to surprise you Nick…” She smirks and then crossed her arms. “Your father is very happy in fact.”


Nick looks up and then swallows. He stands protectively in front of Faye. “What…..what’s her power?” He said and then looked at the little girl.


The little girl looked up with bright red eyes. “I have three powers….Blood coffin….shadow demon summoning, and…I control demons.” She said and then looked up at Nick. Nick had to step back…this girl…she had a strong evil ora. Nick looked at Isabel.


“What the….heck is she?! Her ora is even stronger than Deathwish’s…and that’s only because of blood coffin!” Nick said.


Isabel pulled the girl in closer. “Nick…she’s your sister.” Isabel smirked and then chuckled. “You’re so cruel.”


Nick looks around. “The spell…how can she be in here with such a darkness around her?” Isabel just smirked. “Nick….why don’t you stop being mean and introduce me to your girl there.”


Nick clenched his fists. “How sick can you two get? You have children just to turn them into monsters….to treat them like tools…” He looked up at her with anger. His eyes go black and his fangs came out. “You corrupt everything! I bet she isn’t even Scorns daughter is she?!” He punched his fists through the wall. “How can you do this to all of them, to us?!!!” Nick yelled at her and then shadows started whipping around. Nick was so angry his demon was close to the surface.
 
*Mac smirks as Faith and him seem to come to the same conclusion.* I'm finding it hard to believe myself that I could have been that wrong about you Raina, I'm going to agree with my wife I don't buy your story about killing that girl in cold blood, I don't even need to use my powers to know this but just for the sake of arguing, I want you to look at your mother and sister straight in the eye and tell them you're a killer. Tell them how much you enjoyed it..the rush of feeling her life drain out of her body..See something didn't seem right to me when I saw the pictures of the body..This girl was small, weak, hardly a threat to you Raina a badass vampire killer, she was drained but she was stabbed..Tell me Raina why would you need to stab someone you could easily overpower with no effort? The more I look at the actual facts the less it makes sense to me that you killed the girl in cold blood..Here is a thought, you came across the girl she was dying already, you felt sorry for her suffering and wanted to do something but you didn't want to turn her, siring a new vampire means you have to watch over them and teach them, something you didn't think you were able to do..So you put the child out of her misery. What do you all think of my point of view?
 
(I made a spar between Flower(From here.) And Kira(From street kids.) I thought you might be interested in what happened.) Flower looked at Kal. She smirks and then nods. “Yeah…” She said and then opened the door. There was Kira standing in the middle. Flower smirked and walked up. A rather large crowd was already there. Flower pulled out her sword and pointed it at Kira. “Ready…”


Kira pushed her dark pink hair back. “Always Flower.” Kira said and then grabbed her gun. Kira started shooting first. She stood in a stance and watched as Flower jumped back and dashed to the right avoiding the bullets. Kira clicked the gun and watched as the empty holder came out. She loaded it back again and then dashed into a roll as Flower sliced down her sword.


Flower sliced her sword to the side and then looked at Kira who had avoided the sword. Kira fell on her back but she jumped right back up. Flower looked at Kira Flower’s hair flinging out of her face as her head turned. Flower got up and attacked again. She charged and then sliced, not giving Kira time to shoot. Kira had to keep jumping back to avoid the blade.


Kira used her gun to hit the blade off to the side. She shot at Flower once again but Flower redirected the bullets with her light. Flower created a light ball and threw it at Kira. Kira got hit with it and was thrown back. Kira shook her head on the ground. She looked at Flower and then suddenly turned into a tiger. Kira roared loudly and rushed at Flower.


Flower gripped her sword and then took a stronger stance. She held the blade on both ends and then blocked Kira’s attack. Flower slid back and looked at Kira who was biting the blade. Flower glared at Kira and then kicked her back. Flower jumped and sliced her sword down at Kira. However the sword just hit the ground with a clang. Flower was stunned for a moment as the vibrations hit her hands and up her arms. The shock made Flower cringed a bit.


Kira was now a lioness; she rushed at Flower and jumped pinning her down. Flower held Kira’s head away, however Kira’s hook like claws made flower’s sides bleed. Flower yelled out a bit. Flower got her feet under Kira and kicked her off. Flower rolled back and then stood up.


Kira turned human and then grabbed her gun again. Kira shot at Flower. Flower lifted her hands and streams of light went under the bullets and sent them away from her. However a bullet grazed Flower’s cheek. Flower stumbled back and put a hand to her now bleeding cheek. Flower looked at Kira and then summoned more light. She blasted it at Kira. However Kira had rolled out of the way.


The two girls charged at each other. Kira hit the side of the sword with the back of her arm. Once it was out of Kira’s hand she grabbed it however Flower kicked Kira’s hand that held Kira’s gun. Kira sliced the sword at Flower and Flower dove to the side. Flower grabbed Kira’s gun.


Flower rushed at Kira and then jumped as Kira tried to slice her again. Flower watched as the sword hit the ground. Flower jumped onto the blade and then pointed the gun at Kira’s head. Flower smirked. Kira tried to move the blade but couldn’t. It was over….Flower had won.
 
(Yeah, I'm over Christmas too xD Um, I'm not sure what day it is really? 19th of Dec maybe? Oh, and RAINA'S BIRTHDAY!!!!!! Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Rai-Rai, happy birthday to you! Heh, don't know if you can tell or not but Rai is officially my favourite character I have ever made. And happy birthday to you too Faith! :D )


Mabel giggles at Liza's enthusiasm, she had seen her through being Rai's guardian, and knew her sister cared more deeply than she would like to admit about the little pig-tailed girl, she was really fun though, and if Mabel had longer to be here she would probably spend some time playing with Liza, but she wanted to spend her time with Raina while she could. Macal was right; Mabel needed this as much as Raina did.


Raina was slighting hugging Mabel, the girl still attached to her hip as Faith finally spoke up, this time aiming her words straight at the murderous vampire. She looks to her as she speaks, trying to tell Raina she didn't kill the girl, that she would find out if she didn't anyway. Not like she wanted her to think? That part was right. But she did still kill the girl. "Of course I killed her." She rolled her eyes at Faith, "It's what vampires do right? Isn't that why you kill them?" Mabel openly frowns at Raina now, Sofia looking concerned as Mabel spoke up, "Rai, tell her the truth or I will." The little girl sounds very serious now, and Rai turns to look at her, faking a frown of confusion. But before she can answer back with a lie Macal speaks up.


She directs her eye focus to him, a sarcastic comment about them finally acknowledging her presence settling in her mind momentarily, but when he tells her to look Sofia and Mabel in the eyes, to tell them she's a killer, to tell them how much she enjoyed it. Her cocky, annoyed expression falters a bit as she glances to her mother, then as Macal carries on, quickly and efficiently unraveling her beauty of a lie, she cannot look at him, only her mother, as if her eyes are trapped in hers.


Mabel on the other hand, her smile only increases as Macal very easily concludes the truth of Raina's 'kill' She hops down from her big sister's arms, nodding happily,
"You're even smarter than I thought! That's what happened! Abbey Lockwood was the girl's name, she was on her way home after being at her friend's house when she was attacked by a gang of girls and they stabbed her when they took her stuff, she was about a minute or two away from dying and I was going to take her to heaven when Rai-Rai showed up, she went to attack the girl as well, but then she stopped 'cause she felt bad. But then Abbey asked Rai to help her and stop her pain, so Raina did kill her then, but she was about to die anyway, Rai just made it quicker." Raina, by this point, breaks eye contact with her mother and is rubbing her forehead lightly the way one does when they are stressed. Mabel turned to look at Rai over her shoulder, "She went to heaven Rai; I took her there once you left"


"Great, just great" Raina muttered from behind her hands, her tone was sarcastic, but the girl had to admit she was glad. 'Abbey' as Mabel called her, she was certainly too young to die. Way too young. She looked about Faye's age, if not younger. Finally she pulled her hands away, sounding exasperated as she addressed the Cords' this time, "Well either way, I still killed a human, so we honestly have nothing to talk about here and you can TRY and fail to punish me later okay?" She turned to her mum then, "Please can we leave, Mabel said thank-you and I want her to meet Faye, I mean she wants to meet Faye."


------------


Jace grinned as he pushed the pillow of his face, Flower already hiding in the bath room. He lay on his back for a moment, wondering why his smile wouldn't go away as he couldn't get Flower's sweet little giggle out of his head. She had changed so much since they were kids, but for the better, she was stronger now, more independent, and there was something incredibly appealing about that. Not to mention she was even more beautiful than she had been before.


So when her piercing scream hit Jace's ears he left up from the bed immediately, thinking Vince had somehow got to her again. He heard her yell for her sword and he spotted the weapon, sweeping it up and using his foot to kick open the door, thankfully Flower wasn't in the way to get hit by it because she was sitting upon a giant, poisonous spider.


Wait. Poisonous spider? What the hell? Where did that come from?


He quickly chucked the princess her sword, then he thrusted his hands forward, causing numerous shadow hands to shoot around the spider, grab each of it's legs and try to drag it to the floor, pinning it hopefully. Still using one hand to control the shadows, the half-demon whipped out a dagger and threw it, aiming at the spider's chest, the heart to be exact. "Get the hell away from her!" He growled.


---------------------


Faye smiled at him, shaking her head, "No, walking's fine." When his mother showed up however, with a little girl by her side, she noticed how uncomfortable Nick was, and could easily relate. Though, her mother never really hugged her. But she was just as shocked as he was when a little sister was mentioned. She was his little sister? She had such a...creepy feel about her. Like those children you see in horror movies.


Nick stood protectively in front of her, which both worried and comforted her at the same time, but then he began to freak out. His eyes blackened, fangs coming out as he began to shout insults and accusations at his mother, shadows tearing around them. Oh, so he was allowed to be rude but SHE wasn't? Pssh, talk about double standards.


"Nick."
Faye spoke softly but with a strong hint of strength in her voice as she put her hand on his arm gently, trying to make eye contact with him as she looked up at him. Her own eyes were black already, as she had to give the impression she was a full vampire, "Maybe you should go find Deathwish, let him know your mother has arrived, I'm fine here." She was trying to get Nick to remove himself from the situation so he could calm down. She sounded so much like Myra it frightened her, usually she'd be shouting with him, at the offender, or she'd be at least a little heated, but she had to be on her best behaviour right?
 
(Hahaha! Congrats!) Flower looked at Jace and then looked at the spider. She got off of it and put her hand over her heart. "I'm going to kill Bella for this." She said clenching her fist. She backed away from the spider and shivered. "Even dead that thing creeps me out." She said kicking it's leg. When it twitched she jumped back. "Normal spiders I don't mind but that big thing..." She said and then looked at Jace. She sighed and put her head on his shoulder covering her eyes. "Uggggghhh." She groaned slightly. Trying to keep on that spider had warn her out. Not to mention the shock of a huge spider in her bathroom. She slightly sniffed Jace, her strong nose picked up Jace's scent. She smiled and then blinked pulling back. She looked away. "Hmm now what to do with this think." She said looking at the spider hoping Jace didn't notice her light blush.


Nick looks at Faye. He tighten his jaw his teeth as tight together as they could be. His lip even bled from his fangs. His mother stepped closer and wiped Nick’s lip with her finger. “Oh calm down…I know how upsetting it might be….for your father to think of you completely useless.” She taunted him. Nick turned his head away. “Useless to father….is how I want it.” He said and then looked at the little girl. Nick dropped to his knees and pulled the little girl into a hug. Nick was almost in tears. “This….is cruel…” He glared at his mother.


Isabel looks at Nick and then sighed. “Oh shut up.” She said and then looked at Faye. “I’m thirsty.” She said and then smirked. Deathwish came up behind her. “Try it and I’ll kill you.” He said and then looked at Nick.
