Entwined
Chapter 1
Life used to be simple for me, like most people I had a plan graduate from college, get a job, house, marriage and kids then grow old moaning about how the world has change. It was simple for me a year ago, looking back my biggest problem was finding time to spend with Shaun before he become a priest like my uncle. Life had become easier in the last month or so but something in the back of my mind warned me it was the calm before the storm. I blink a couple times as I pass the Welcome to Mystic Falls sign proving that I had reached my destination the streets were quite but after the bustle of New Orleans that seemed like a welcome change for a while, I had no idea where to start my search but the local bar seemed like a good enough place, once I parked my car in a space I walked through the doors.
It was a normal looking bar bigger than the one I worked in but it looked like the only one in town, I scanned the room taking in the sight of the people sitting in booths with their friends eating and catching up to the guys trying to drown their sorrows with the 10th class of scotch. Asking the bar tender seemed like the step in the right direction trust me, local bar tenders get to know a range of different people.
'What can I get for you?' The bartender asked he was an athletic looking guy with blonde hair couldn't have been much younger than myself
'Some information and a diet coke please'
'I can get you the diet coke but I'm not so sure about the information' he smiled as he filled a glass of diet coke from draft
'I'm looking for someone'
He placed a napkin on the bar and placed my drink on top
'His names Enzo' his eyes flickered of to the side before looking back at me his smile had vanished from his face
'Why are you looking for Enzo?'
'An old family friend I was told that he was staying here for a while so I decided to come and say hello…sentimental reasons you know' He didn't look to happy about me looking for Enzo but he pointed towards a table where I young man sat drinking by himself, I thanked him and walked over to the table with my drink in hand
'Enzo?' I made it sound like a question but for some reason I knew that this was the guy I was looking for, he looked me up and down
'Have we met, I never forget a pretty face but I can't seem to place yours'
'No we haven't met, do you mind if I sit down I have something to ask you and I think you may have the answer'
'Be my guest it's not every day a pretty young women makes the first move' I smiled as I sat down he had a certain charm about him
'I have something I want to show you and for some reason it's linked to you' I opened my bag and pulled out the dagger I had found still wrapped in its cloth
'I found this and underneath where I found it was your name and where to find you, can you explain that to me' I pulled the cloth away to reveal a dagger with a handle that held four jewels two larger jewels and two smaller jewels in a jade colour it was finely made with diamonds and different patterns on the hilt someone had gone to a great length to make sure that dagger looked like it did.
I placed it on the table between us and looked up to find a hint of fear in Enzo's eyes, when he saw that I was looking at him he blinked and the fear was gone
'Sorry love never seen that dagger before I don't know why my name was linked to it but you are mistaken'
'I don't believe you'
'Believe what you will but I have nothing to say about it, I'm sorry that you wasted your time, maybe we could get a drink some time'
'I'm taken'
'All the pretty ones are'
'If you suddenly remember anything here's my number' he took the last swallow of his drink and got up and left, before he was out of sight I saw him take out his phone and ring someone
I didn't believe him one bit he knew about the dagger I just don't get why or how it ended up where it did, sighing I finished my drink and thought about my next plan of action, it didn't take a long before I decided that I had done all I could for today, my next step was finding a motel and getting some sleep, Enzo denying he knew anything about the dagger had drained me of the last bit if energy I had left, I placed the glass on the bar and asked the young bar tender for directions to the town motel he gladly obliged and told me he hoped I enjoyed my stay.
Before I climbed into my car I noticed Enzo talking to two other guys they seemed troubled about something and something in my gut told me that I was to cause of that trouble.
Hi guys so this is a short opener to my new story that takes place in my own little timeline. I like the idea of this story so even if no one reads this story I'm going to carry it on for my own enjoyment. Chapters will be getting longer.
