Prologue:

20 years after Mick had the cure. Coraline is still in France with her brother Lance. Beth and Mick were now married and had a daughter. Of course Mick was a vampire now since the cure had worn off within 2 years but in those 2 years Beth convinced Mick they should start a family. They did hence the daughter. Her name was Joshua Rose John. Mick let Beth name their daughter after Josh Lindsey her ex-boyfriend. He felt no jealousy of it, in fact it was the least he could do considering how he tried to save the guy, failed, and Beth was devastated. Their daughter was about 18 now. They were all packing for a trip to Europe. Beth and Mick knew it was so they could find Coraline and save her. Josh didn't. They didn't tell anything to Josh about her father being a vampire, about his past or why they were going. All she knew was she'd be staying with Uncle Josef for the time her parents were away. They covered it up as a second honey moon trip.

Now...

Chapter 1

"But Mom I don't want to stay with Uncle Josef. I wanna go to Europe with you and Dad. For God sake's you're visiting four different countries and seeing some of the greatest works of history in the world. Plus I could get hit on by foreign guys with cute accents!" Josh said.

Mick chuckled. Beth shot him a look.

"Look Joshie this is just a little vacation for me and your dad. Mick's been working hard and he wanted to take this trip. Besides you've always enjoyed staying with Josef." Beth said.

"He got boring. All he does is offer me wine and money." Josh said.

"What?!" Beth said.

Mick burst out laughing. "Mick that is not funny."

"You gotta admit it's a little funny." Mick said. He knew his best friend pretty well and his daughter nailed it perfectly.

"Okay so he doesn't offer me wine but he constantly bribes me." Josh said.

"Well I'm sorry honey but you'll just have to deal with him until we get back." Beth said.

As if on cue the door opened. Josef Kostan walked in. He wore a red silk button down shirt, black blazer and dress pants. His sandy brown hair was neatly combed and his brown eyes gleamed with mischief.

"Ah Mick, great to see you. Beth you're looking lovely as ever. And Joshie how are you?" Josef said each word smoothly rolling off his tongue.

Josh rolled her eyes at Josef and ran up the stairs to get her suitcase.

"What's up with her?" Josef asked.

"She's mad because we're not taking her to Europe with us." Mick said.

"Teenagers. Gotta love their drama. Did you tell the little sport you two might die along the way? Or that you're actually hunting her daddy's ex-wife to save her from some crazy ass vampire brother-in-laws?" Josef said.

"Shh, she might hear you Josef." Beth warned.

"Probably not, I'll bet you she'll come down here with a pair of headphones on and she's listening to Queen very loudly." Josef said.

Sure enough Josh came down with her suitcase with her headphones on.

"That's Journey actually but good guess." Mick said.

Josef rolled his eyes and took the suitcase from Josh and lead her to his car. It was a 1969 Corvette Stingray, red with some black racing stripes. Mick looked at Beth.

"You think she'll be fine?" Beth asked.

"It's Josef what's the worst that could happen?" Mick said.

Josef sat in the passenger seat as Josh drived. Josef showed her a short cut road so they were going like 70 mph. They made it back to his place in the 15 minutes. He lived in a peaceful estate he had build the year Beth and Mick got married. He figured Mick would be having him play baby sitter all the time so this place was his cover for when Josh was over. It was a grand mansion with three floors of unused rooms. There was a garage filled with old cars and motorcycles of the 1900s and a backyard garden. Josh pulled into the paved driveway and parked the car. She got out and ran up the steps into the house.

"No worries I'll take your bags." Josef said sarcastically and got her suitcase bringing it inside.

He watched Josh spin around with her eyes closed. This started as a tradition since she was a little girl. She'd spin around pointing until she stopped and landed on a door. That'd be the room she was staying in for however long she was there. Her auburn hair swirled around her shoulders. Josef smiled to himself.

"I can't stand here all day you know. You have to pick at some point." Josef said.

Josh stopped and pointed. "There."

"Pick again sweetheart, that's my room." Josef said.

"You didn't mind when I was 6. Besides you're my Uncle so who cares if I'm an adult." Josh took her suitcase from him and brought it into the room.

"Mick you so owe me for this." Josef muttered.

Beth and Mick were at the L.A. airport waiting in line to board the plane. Beth was reading through a Tour of France pamphlet. Mick was scanning around when he noticed something. Two men in suits and sunglasses much like his own. To block out the sun.

"We're being watched." Mick whispered to Beth. "Just act normal."

"Right." Beth said.

She saw that people were now boarding the plane. "Let's go."

Beth and Mick walked up the gang plank heading into the plane.

In roughly 10 hours they were going to arrive in Paris, France the heart of the country. There they would find Coraline and bring her back along with the cure. And maybe, just maybe Mick could finally be human and finally be happy.

-Now you know my name.
