Poblius Polius Felix was dined at his seat with all of his freinds with him. They were all eating but him. His three daughters were dining in the other room, having their own little personal talk.

Everyone was talking here with their mouths full. Just like pigs. thought Felix. He grasped his wine cup and took a sip, wincing as he realized something was different about it. The last sight he saw was of a huge table full of patricians eating away while one smiled rufelessly at him.

It was a nice warm sunny day and three girls ran down the beach. One was taller than the others and the fastest. They all three had curly hair. But the tall one had blond curly hair, one of the shortys had bronze curly hair and the other had brown curly hair. They ran down the beach to the shorline. When the tidal wave went back to the ocean the girls chased it, and when it came back for revenge the girls ran away. The tall girl finally stopped and stood watching her sisters squeal with exitement. She smiled.

"Why arent you out there having fun?" Came a voice behind her. She twirled her head around to find her dad, the most charming man in the all of Italia. He always had perfect white teeth, beautiful straight hair, a tan complexion and his eyes always sparkled. It was sometimes said that he was a God himself, rather than a human being. His voice was also said to real in new commers. But Pulchra, the taller girl out of the three, knew he wasnt a God. He was just her father. But it seemed today that his spell he has been pulling off for years to come has went away. He wasnt smiling and he now looked like he saw ghosts everywhere he turned. Pulchra didnt seem to know why though. He's always had that perfect smile all the time.

"I just got tired."

"That was pretty quick."

"Well it was pretty quick-" she started to say but cut herself off. She was going to say that it was pretty quick for her father to loose his charm, but she didnt want to say any more.

"Quick what?" he urged her.

"It was just that it was pretty quick for them to pull back from that wave. See?"

They both looked out the two little sisters and one of them dragged one out of the way from the tide and she jumped back so she wouldnt loose the game of tag. The two laughed and ran up to their sister and father. They circled them, laughing and giggling with good cheer. Felix just watched them while Pulchra spinned around to keep track of the two. The little girls then hugged Felix's legs and he ruffled their hair. He felt a sheepish grin spread across his face and dim away.

"Alright" he sighed." Lets go." He set off toward their home, the Villa Limona, and they girls ran ahead to their giant house.

Felix lay beside his wife's bed. Tears streaming down his face while her pale face shone in the light of the moon. He gasped a few sniffles in, and started praying. When there was a rasping knock on his door.

"Daddy?"

"Go away..." he whispered.

"Daddy?"

"Go away." he said a little louder.

"Dad-"

"GO AWAY!!" now he screamed at the top of his lungs. A slight whimper of sobs came from the other side of his door. Felix resumed to watching his wife.

"I will miss you...my dear." he whispered.

All of those things ringed through his head as he was trying to pull his own hair out. Painful gasps and moanss escaped his throat, every eye on him now. He got up and banged his head against the wall. Falling on his knees now, he heard a few laughs from his long trusted patricains. The man that was watching him the whole time snickering at him, walked up and put his boot on Felix's head. He watched him for a few moments then kicked his forhead making him pass out.

The moon shown through the window and on a pale face that was unconcious and dreaming away. When suddenly he shot up from laying down and screamed. He looked around his room realizing it wasnt the dining room of his. A dryness in his mouth made him favor water. The bedside table had none as he could see. The only place to get some water was in the kitchen. He started to pull the covers back when a searing pain erupted through his head and he screamed aloud. It was like last nights pain, just worse.

"Dear Apollo." he hissed through his breath, now holding his head in his hands. "Like everything else wasnt enough!"

Pulchra and her sisters sat in their rooms reading to each other.

"...And so when a Prometheus opens a Pandoras box-" CRASH! All the girls took their gazes to the door of their room.

"Is that Pater?" Asked the little blondie.

"Or a..." replied the little brunette.

"BURGLAR!" yelled Pulchra. All three girls hopped off their beds and ran out the door, across the triclinium, up the stairs and through the hallway and finally to their dads door. By the time they made it there, their breaths came out ragged and their hearts beat fast. Pulchra cracked the door open, whispering "Pater?" when the door creaked open revealing their dad. But he had pale skin, pure black eyes, his shirt ripped off his spine showing as well as his ribs, sharp nails and canine teeth. He growled at the three.

"Pater..." the girls said nearly at the same time. He growled again and opened his mouth and letting out a lion like roar. The girls screamed as he lunged towards them and attacked.
