This is the story of two sisters, in a big lonely house.
One born of in flames, one born in frost.
Even though the two were different, they shared the same heart for each other as sisters should.
This is the story of two sisters, whose lives were changed by a few guests from a party.
(The timeline for this story is between the episodes of #THINMAN and Blade Runners in Supernatural, in between Fear Her and Army of Ghosts in Doctor Who, and a few months after series 3 in Sherlock after Moriarty returns.)
Chapter 1
Everything Is In Place
Down the road, past the woods, and up a hill, sat a manor. This manor was made of brick, window frames painted white, two balconies, and an entrance with marble columns and a large mahogany doors. There were many wondrous things outside of the home, with its flower beds, grand fountain, and beauty, inside the house held even more wondrous things. The manor's interior held many rooms, decorations, and such marvelous designs. This large manor could hold nearly one hundred people, but is only occupied by two sisters. On this day, the eldest sister will be hosting a party, in honor of the manor and the many memories it holds.
Although it was the eldest sister's idea, at the moment the youngest sister is preparing for the party. "Alright, let's see what we got," she thought to herself, "we have the little platters, decorations set, the tiny finger foods, the desserts." She stared at the food set neatly on the table, and looks around to see if her sister was in sight.
Before she could stuff her face full of mini-cupcakes, she hears her sister's voice call from upstairs. "You better not touch any of the food down there! You can eat them when the guests arrive!" The eldest sister comes down the stairs, all ready for the party. She's dressed in a red strapless gown, black high heels, a black necklace with matching earrings, and her golden blonde hair curled and put up. "Christine, you better get ready, they'll be arriving soon and you're still in your jeans."
"Do I really have to attend, Olivia?" Christine replied with a snarky remark, disappointed in not being able to eat anything. "You know I really don't like large crowds, let alone people."
"I've already put out your dress and makeup, you know how to do the rest." Olivia was the older sister who was more outgoing than her little sister Christine. Whenever there would be a party or event, it was always Olivia to be the first to attend, and longest to stay. Meanwhile, Christine was more of the "stay-at-home" sister. Whenever there would be a party or event, she would always be the last one to go, and by that meaning not go at all, unless her sister forces her.
"Look, I know how much this party means to you, but I really don't want to join." Christine insisted. "I already helped you prepare for it, which in fact I did most of the work, but I still deserve a break by not being at this party."
"Oh come on Chris, you haven't been around people in a while!" Olivia exclaimed, taking Christine's hands before she could get away. "Who knows, maybe you'll find a guy."
"Well there's going to be a bunch of guys thanks to you inviting everyone in a twenty-mile radius of us." Christine tried to make her sister let go of her hands, but Olivia kept hold.
"Please Chrissy, for me?" Olivia looked straight into Christine's eyes and gave her the ol' puppy dog eyes.
"No, no no no don't give me the look," Christine tried to look away, but Olivia didn't stop. After consideration, Christine finally gave in. "Fine! I'll put on the stupid dress..."
"I knew you would give in." Olivia said. "Now hurry up, it's almost six and they'll be here any time now."
"Okay, but I'll only be here until dinner, after that, I'm out." Christine started up the stairs. "What's for dinner anyways?"
"A type of sirloin with potatoes and stuff."
"Did you make it all?"
"Yes, yes I did. Now hurry up! I already picked out your dress and shoes, I just bought them today and I think you'll like them." Olivia added. "The dress matches your eyes."
Christine continued to walk upstairs, and as she did, the doorbell chimed meaning the first guest had arrived.
"Well, let's put on a show." Olivia walked up to the door, and prepares for whatever will happen tonight.
