Michael Corvin has a half sister. Though her Corvin blood is making her quite popular. Will the past of hers that Michael knows nothing about destroy what the lycans and vampires plan. Or will her falling for a vampire or lycan choose their fates. HollyPOV
Holly jumped down from the fence and ran cross the lawn as fast as she could. Her boys were right on her tail and she could hear the shouts behind them all. They jumped over a lower fence and ran across the street and through an alley. They went up a street into a neighborhood, behind two yards, and through Carlisle's open basement window. They threw their bags on the couches and chairs and collapsed. They all gasped for breath as they looked at each other big grins covering thier faces. All of a sudden, they burst into laughter.
"That was the best TPing we've done yet," Gary commented and grabbing a bottle of water off the table.
"That's the first time we were almost caught," Charlisle replied, breathing deeply and trying to get used to this new exercise they were trying.
"And it was the first time we went into the enemy's camp and totally destroyed them," Holly's hand punched through the air with her military expression. She got up and stood on the couch at the end of Johns feet. They laughed at her still energetic form, jumping on the couch after running nearly a mile, "There is so much toilet paper, tomorrow the world will know that the AC's have totally taken control of this territory."
Carlton threw water bottles to them all and Holly caught hers, while falling to a sitting position on Johns feet. Carlton rolled his eyes, "How you can be so hyper is beyond me."
"I had a lot of caffiene!" Holly exclaimed as if that was all there was to it. The only thing was that she drank mostly water and didn't drink pop so now with the three monsters they put in her she was a ticking time bomb.
"Well, I would say this was the best night," Charlisle sighed almost about to fall asleep. Johns snuggled to his pillow and nodded in reply. Holly mouth fell open as Gary put his feet up and Carlton leaned his head on the wall.
"NONONONO!!!" She shouted, "You guys can't go to sleep already! Not now! Not yet!"
"Oh come on Holly," Gary scowled, "We had a really good run tonight we all deserve some sleep."
Holly frowned and looked around at her boys. They weren't used to her extreme sugar rush mood. They all looked like they were in the first day of military camp or something. So warn out it was all they could do to keep themselves awake. She jumped off the couch and started climbing out the window.
"What are you doing?" Charlisle asked starting to stand up but she waved her hand at him.
"Don't worry about me. I'll be back in a little bit. I am just going to run to the store and back, get some hot chocolate to make so I can calm my nerves and get to sleep," She got all the way out and stuck her head through, "Don't wait up for me. I'll be safe."
With that she got up and jogged out of the neighborhood. It was a nice safe neighborhood that Charlisle lived in with his new parents. They were so nice to them all. They were the best foster parents for him. They cared about him and wanted to keep him safe like a real son, but they also let him live his summer running around with the rest of the misfits. That's what they would have called themselves had it not been taken. So the all called themselves the Abandoned Children, cause that's what they were.
It was Holly, Gary, Charlise, Carlton, and Johns. Everyone but Charlisle didn't have a family at all at the moment. Of course Gary and Carlton had just turned eighteen, had stable jobs, and were probably going to move up in the adult world. Johns and Holly had become run aways from the places that tried to contain them. Johns was deadly and they knew it. His past was one that was never talked about and they knew nothing about it. Though it was the way that he acted that made them know he had committed the worst crime possible. It didn't phase Holly though cause Johns always treated her kindly. Charlisle was the youngest. Only fifteen at the moment but he kept up with the group. After everything he had been through he was mature enough to hang with them.
Holly was almost to the store when she saw a bench on the sidewalk right outside the park. She sat on it quietly and put her hands on the sides of her head. Tonight was fun. They had gone to the rival gangs territory and thrown so much around, it would take all day to clean up. Forks, signs, toilet paper, spoons, flamingos....don't ask....... and they stuck post its on every car they knew belonged to them. She felt weight on the bench beside her and turned quickly. A nice looking boy... man. A little older than her in light jeans and a white shirt smiled at her.
"Rough day?" He asked, looking at her. She was on alert but no one would ever suspect it. She always acted at ease.
"Best day of my life actually," Holly replied, looking up at the moon that finally came out of the clouds. It was almost full. Just a couple more days and it would be, but then she would watch the eclipse. This time... she wouldn't miss it.
"Wow, wonder what could make it so good," He said looking up at the moon too. She checked him over and saw the look in his eyes. She felt more at ease at the careful, knowing look he had towards the moon. He was just a mellow guy. He noticed and looked into her eyes, "I'm Alex."
Holly bit her lip and then took a solid breath, "I'm Holly."
A small smile played his lips and he looked at his hands a small blush coming to his face. It made her smile and face towards the store. They sat in silence for a moment, until she heard someone coming down the street. She recognised the voices, "Shooooot," she mumured, looking to see if she could make it to the store in time.
"Got a problem," Alex asked and she smiled sheepishly at him. He rubbed his forehead and blushed a little deeper, "I could technically keep them from even paying the slightest attention to us."
She nodded and he frowned. She put her hand on his and he whispered, "You wouldn't like it."
"I'm okay with anything," Holly replied quickly giving him a hopeful glance. Just before they came into view of the Volvo Boys, Alex pulled Holly into a sharp but sweet kiss on the lips. Their lips were pressed together but he decided kissing her deeper would cause a complete smack down in front of many people. Holly was completely taken off guard but pulling back wouldn't be good. She instinctively put her hand on his neck and his hand slid down onto her back. His lips brushed hers as he pulled back and she realized they were a little rough.
She bit her lip and looked down at her lap, the red rushing into her face now. He faced towards the store again and muttered, "I'm sorry."
She smirked and replied, "It's not your fault you're not the greatest kisser in the world but you could have done worse."
His mouth dropped open as he stared at her. She made the situation so much lighter with a smile and the cocking of her head, "It doesn't bother me to much that you were trying so hard to flirt."
He looked her right in the eye playing along, "First of all, if I was flirting you would be blushing a whole lot more. Second, I can kiss you so good you would have fallen off this bench."
Holly rolled her eyes and brushed her cheek with his hand, "Want me to prove it."
Her breath caught in her throat as she stared into his gorgeous chocolate brown eyes. Even though she acted like a child her mind was completely adult and she wanted more than ever to say yes to his request. It was the first time she was so open to a stranger, though this was the first time she felt such a good aura around someone.
Before her breath could move she felt a hand on her back and jumped almost into Alex's lap. She turned to see Johns standing behind her, giving a deadly glare to Alex. Alex just gave him a cool glance but when Holly looked into his eyes he could see that his only worry was for her. Did he think that Johns was a bad boyfriend or dangerous stanger? She stood up and Johns said, "We began to worry."
She nodded and leaned her head to Alex, "He saved me from having a run in with the Volvo Boys."
Alex's eyebrows raised at the names and she laughed. He held up a hand, "So, I just have to say... you call the most dangerous gang on the north side.... the Volvo.... Boys."
He burst out laughing and Holly couldn't help but think of how cute his laugh was. He seemed older but his personality was sweet and a little boyish. It made him attractive but nice to be around. She felt Johns arm wrap around her protectively and she leaned her head on his chest, "This is Johns and Johns, this is Alex."
Johns nodded and Alex smiled politely, "Nice to meet you."
He stood up and stretched. Then smiled at Holly, "I really do hope fate brings us together more ofter. It was really nice meeting you."
Holly automatically bit her lip in excitement. He turned around to walk away, so she pulled from Johns, "Do you have a cell phone?"
Alex turned a little shocked at the question, but nodded. She skipped to him and handed hers to him. He gave up his and they added themselves, picture and all. Holly looked up at him and smirked, "Call me."
He nodded and turned, jogging across the street. She turned to see Johns watching him suspiciosly and wrapped her arms around his middle. Everyone automatically saw Johns as a threat. He was tough and could or would kill if neccessary. Anyone could see it in his eyes. Though Holly wasn't scared of him at all cause she didn't believe he would hurt her but she was scared for him... if he ever hurt someone else.
One of his hands wrapped very tightly around her back and the other tried not to pet her head to hard. His body was almost shaking and she could tell he was angry at her a little. It didn't bother her at all cause she did things to make him mad all the time. It was the stranger who had his hands on her that she was worried for, so she held on to him in a childish way so he would be calm down by her being there in his arms.
He pulled her in the direction of Charlisle's and they started walking. After a few moments she started to feel sluggish but Johns just picked her up and cradled her gently. She felt him stop and set her on her feet. It was all she could do to slide into the basement and lean against the wall. Johns picked her up and sat her on the couch. He laid down on it and pulled her to lay on top of him. She complied and pulled a blanket up over them to keep warm. Johns kept her safe and warm through everything. He was like a silent guardian angel to make her feel better. His arms were strong and comforting as she fell into a deep sleep.
Michael shifted through all the papers in his apartement. Selene leaned stoicly against the wall, watching his slow progress. He ran to the next drawer and flipped through some old photos, throwing them into the bag he'd grabbed. Selene had told him, anything to do with her was to be taken and in a hurry. They didn't have much time till the next shift of cops came past here.
He grabbed as many things as he could and was about to go out the window with Selene when something called to him. He turned around and went for the shoebox under his bed. The cops were at the door right after his feet left the window ledge. They never saw a thing. Box and bag in hand he jumped into the passenger seat. Selene took off in complete silence but gave him a small glance.
"I don't know if any of this will help," Michael's voice was almost a whisper but to them in the silence it was to loud to thier sensitive ears. He shuffled through the bag and took out a photo of the young blond girl curled in his lap. He had thought she was his cousin that day. He'd carried her on his shoulders, thrown her in the lake, and watched movies while eating popcorn.
Then he found out the truth. That little eight year old was his half sister. His father wasn't able to tell him but his mother did with sadness. He'd almost killed his father at the news of his affair. He had been so nice to that little girl and she was the worst thing in his life. He had been eight when she was born, so it wasn't like he could really tell but, the fact that she was corrupt.
He threw the picture in the bag. She was going to be in danger now because of who she was and he wasn't about to be the one to let her down. He was going to protect her through this. He set the bag on the floor since it was no use. Selene sighed, since they were almost to the airport and Michael had no idea where they were to go. He opened the shoebox. Something his father had given to him but he had never opened. After the funeral it was just taken everywhere, but he couldn't bare to know his father secrets that lay inside, cause that's what the letter said was there.
The funeral was the worst, cause she was there. He was twenty-two by then and the fourteen year old stoicly stood their at the funeral. All she did was stare as the coffin as it lowered into the ground. She didn't even go near the people, standing in the distance by someone elses grave. When everyone left but him, his mother, and that girl, she came down to the coffin. His mom just nodded sadly at her and walked away.
Michael's fist had lost all color. What right did this girl have to come to the funeral? Hadn't she caused enough trouble in his life? Though she just stood at the side of the coffin mumbling something and laid a single white rose on top lightly. He was mad at how white that flower was... like she was pure. He'd told her so many rude things. As an adult he she have been mature, though he had said things.
Things like, you were never supposed to be born. Or she had no right to come here since it wasn't her father. She was just some stupid silly girl who thought she could destroy everyone's lives. She was a mistake.
Though she just nodded and never looked at him. She was one of the toughest people he had ever met....the strongest will. Why had he tried to crush her?
When he opened the box he found a letter.
Dear Michael,
You may never forgive me for what I've done but you don't understand. As much as I loved your mother
i fell in love with someone else. I regret not telling you sooner. I regret not letting you two be close to
each other. Your mother forgave me but she never felt the same love towards me. Don't blame your
half sister for my mistakes. She has always said since that day she met you that she wanted to be the
best sister ever. If only you give her the chance. She doesn't have a father figure because of seperation
so I am hoping even when I am gone, you will protect her. Her mother is gone and I was her only hope.
Please, protect Holly when I never gave it a chance.
You only get one chance, whether you regret it or not is yours. This is your chance to have someone that
will look only to you for help. She will definitally help you get ready for like.
If not for you... please do this for us.
Love,
Your Father
Michael looked at the many pictures in the box. They were between the time Holly was born and until she was eleven it seemed. It had contact numbers and something that stuck to him. It was a letter the one thing that helped him the most was the address and a name. The name Charlisle Joles, a boy who was said to be the one person she would be with forever, was what they went on. It was thier only hope at finding the lost Corvin.
