This Story has been adopted from EveDuncan2. There are only minor changes in this chapter. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did when Eve wrote it :)
(Bubbles POV)
My name is Bubbles Utonium. Ordinary girl with a an ordinary family living in an ordinary world, right? WRONG! My world has been anything but ordinary these past seven years. I can still remember when the news hit our little city,like it was yesterday.
I was eating breakfast with my sisters, Blossom and Buttercup, at our favorite diner, Sunny's, when the manager burst in. He looked agitated and downright scared.
"Turn on the news!" Joey demanded, out of breath.
Daphne,his wife,fiddled with the remote to the small diner's only TV until the news channel came on. Everyone went silent.
Rosie Rodriguez was staring intently into the camera, "You heard it right folks, vampires. They're real and they're making they're way into our lives. Last week, an odd group of people approached a high school in Washington, claiming to be vampires. They made it quite clear that they were telling the truth by draining the life out of poor sophomore, Genine Smithers. Vampires are officially coming out of the coffin, when will they get to your town? We'll have more information after the break."
Daphne turned the TV off, gaping at the blank screen. I was nine years old at the time and I gazed at my older sisters, tears in my eyes, "Vampires?"
Blossom, age eleven cleared her throat, "Its probably just a world wide prank. Halloween is right around the corner. It's gonna be just like that time everyone thought aliens were attacking."
Buttercup, ten years old, shrugged, "Even if they are real, you've got us. Would we ever let a monster touch you?" I shook my head, the tears falling anyway.
Blossom rubbed my shoulder, "Hey, now. We're going to be fine."
If only she knew.
Now, we're all students at Townsville High. I'm sixteen, Buttercup's seventeen, and Blossom's eighteen. The VC, or Vampire Crisis, was dimmed down into a minor threat. The vampires rarely bother humans and we never bother them.
However, in order to keep this peace, every town must be willing to sacrifice a select few high school students as mates for the vampires. I shuddered just thinking about it. It wasn't that I thought there was even a slight chance of vampire clans coming to little Townsville, GA, but if they did... I would worry about my sisters.
They were both so beautiful and vibrant, standing out always, there was not a doubt in my mind that the vampires would take them. I was prepared to hide them or fight for them if needed, no matter how much trouble I got into.
I sighed shakily and pushed all thoughts of vampires out of my mind. Thinking about it wouldn't solve anything. I had more important things to worry about.
Today was supposed to be a good day. I'd done all my homework, studied for the big test, and today we were getting blue berry muffins in the cafeteria.
What could go wrong?
I shimmied into a white sundress, brushed my hair into low pigtails, and slid on some blue sandles. I looked cute.
"Are you girls ready?" I called, slinging my blue messenger bag over my shoulder.
"Waiting on you!" Blossom yelled back, sounding irritated.
I flushed, "Sorry!"
I shuffled out of my room and skipped down the stairs to find a glaring Blossom. She was leaning against the wall and practically fuming. She looked really lovely today, I couldn't help but notice. Long red hair held back by a pink head band, light pink polo and a knee length khaki skirt and pink flip flops.
I smiled apologetically, "Sorry, I was day dreaming."
She still glared, "We're going to be late."
I gnawed on my lip and thought of a way to change the subject.
"Where's Buttercup?" I asked curiously.
Her shoulders slumped, "I'm not sure. She could still be sleeping for all I know." she rolled her eyes.
I sighed, "I'll go check on her."
I ran back up the stairs and knocked on Buttercup's door.
"BC, you up?" I asked.
She sniffled, "Yeah!"
Her voice broke and if I didn't know any better, I would have thought she was crying. I walked in to her room and what I saw made me want to collapse.
A red letter.
I sucked in a sharp breath, "Is that..."
She nodded, wiping furiously at her eyes, "They're coming this morning."
I felt my lip start to quiver, "No."
She hugged me fiercely, "Don't worry. I'll protect you."
I allowed one little drop of moisture escape from my eyes before I pulled myself together. Why did Buttercup and Blossom always feel the need to protect me? It was them I was worried about.
I looked at Buttercup, the tan version of what I picture snow white would look like. Lime green eyes, deep black hair and a wonderful figure, even if she (being the tom boy she always has been) didn't like to admit it.
"It'll be fine. They probably won't even notice us." I said, trying to convince myself. Blossom and Buttercup were incredibly beautiful,of course they would notice them.
She nodded, "I'm going to tell Blossom."
"Okay." I whispered, numbly.
When I heard her footsteps retreating down the stairs I fell to my knees. My worst nightmare was about to become a reality. I took deep breaths, trying to calm myself. I wouldn't let them get near my sisters without a fight.
And I was going to fight with all I had.
