1518, OUTSKIRTS OF FLORAROMA TOWN: MAPLE RESIDENCE
NORMAL POV
"Wake up guys! Wake up, wake up, wake up!' yelled a girl with brown hair and emerald green eyes while jumping on the bed of her only brother, Paul. She goes by the name Audrey. Her pokemon partner is Vulpix. She is very optimistic and always cheerful. Oh and the youngest in the family.
Paul woke up first obviously. He was the eldest and had purple hair and onyx eyes. His pokemon partner is Elekid. He trusts his family and his family alone. He growled and pushed Audrey off his bed.
Next to wake up was a girl with orange hair and cerulean blue eyes; the 2nd eldest. She goes by the name Misty. Her starter is a Staryu. She is very athletic for a girl and thinks things over before doing anything.
Last to wake up was the second youngest named May. She is a brunette with sapphire blue eyes and her starter is a Torchic. She loves to travel and acts like the mother whenever their parents aren't around.
They all have some things in common though. The first is that they all have short tempers so don't mess with them. And second is that they were all orphans until Caroline and Norman Maple adopted them.
Paul quickly made his bed and walked to the bathroom with his clothes. He quickly washed his face and then changed. When he went back to his room, the beds were all made and his sisters were waiting for him to get his shoes.
"Okay you got your hoes already. Now get out of the room." Misty said pushing him out the door. He let himself be pushed out of the room. Paul stepped out onto the hallway the door behind him shut.
"Girls." he muttered under his breath before walking down the stairs to the kitchen where he saw Caroline and Norman sitting in the rectangular table and eating one apple each. "Good morning."
"Morning Paul." Caroline said smiling at him. "You're up early." Paul sat his seat beside his father who was sitting at the head of the table. (AN: Seat of Power~)
"Well, Audrey doesn't want us to waste perfectly good vegetables we could sell in the Market." Paul said filling his plate full of berries. Then before he could forget, he walked to the back door and called out his family's pokemon for breakfast. They came right away.
"Eat up all of you." Norman said putting the bowl full of berries for each Pokemon. There was Elekid, Vulpix, Staryu, Torchic, Salkoth and Vigoroth and Slaking (Norman's), Flareon and Leafeon and Glaceon and Jolteon and Umbreon and Vaporeon and Espeon (Caroline's).
"What are you planning to gather today?" Norman asked as he took his seat back in the table. Paul opened his mouth to speak but a rather high pitched voice said "Potatoes, corn, and carrots!" Audrey, May, and Misty entered the kitchen in unison and took their seats in the table.
"And if we have time, apples." Misty said getting fried egg (sunny side up), bread, and a few berries for her breakfast.
"Which apples?" Norman asked.
"Whichever is ripe enough." May said excitedly. To top it off, Norma is a fisherman whenever he doesn't teach in the school nearby.
"Will you be going to the market today?" Misty asked Caroline who shook her head.
"I plan to stay here and help you with the farm and tend to the flowers." In the market, the Maple family is the most successful. They sell animal meat, everything that grows on the farm (which are vegetables, fruits, and flowers), and fish.
"Well, I'm off to the school." Norman said standing up and grabbing his cloak and knapsack. He kissed Caroline in the lips for a second and kissed his children on the top of their heads. "Goodbye everybody. I'll see you at 6PM."
"Bye dear." Caroline said waving.
"Bye daddy!" Audrey said grinning. A few minutes later, everybody was already finished with their food and everything was washed and kept in the cupboard. Paul and the pokemon arrived in the kitchen carrying four big baskets each just as the girls finished fixing their hairs.
"I dibs watering the fruits."
~o~
"Espeon, use psychic to get those big red apples off the tree!" Audrey ordered her mom's pokemon who followed obediently. They all made their way to one of the baskets nearby in a single file. Amy inspected them for any bruises or holes before they went in the basket.
"There are a whole lot of corn this season." Misty said smiling to herself. She adjusted her sun hat and kept gathering the corn. Slaking, Slakoth, and Vigoroth were beside her and also gathering corn for the cart.
Just as promised, Paul was watering the flowers and now the other plants that weren't disturbed yet with Staryu and Vapeoreon using water gun. Later he would clean up the fruits and veggies they have gathered. A little far off, May was in the vegetable field with the other eevolutions picking up the potatoes, tomatoes, and carrots.
"Good job you guys!" May said praising them. Everyone's partner pokemon was right beside them as well. Caroline, with Leafeon at her side, was watering her beautiful flowers in the field beside the vegetable garden May was. She looked at her children and smiled to herself.
'It's so peaceful here. I never would've guessed that we would be able to live so peacefully here after that last mission we had in Canada. I wonder how Jay is doing right now with Jake.' She looked at the sun with a blank expression and estimated the time. '9AM. We're a tad bit late.'
"I'm going to get the fertilizer for the plants." Caroline said and walked back to the house, Leafeon following closely behind.
"Alright!" her kids said together. Caroline smiled. She went to the basement and got the bag of fertilizer when she heard four shouts of agony. That did it. Caroline's eyes turned bright red and she sprinted out the house so fast she wasn't seen.
"Curse you to hell!" she screeched when she lounged at the man who had just gathered up all of his clones. (AN: O_O this will get kinda nasty...) He didn't have the time to react when Caroline bit his shoulder off with her sharp teeth and snapped his head off.
Her children were all on the floor, almost dead with blood gushing out quickly. The pokemon of Norman and Caroline understood what was happening and carefully brought the bodies of her almost dead children. Seeing their faces only angered her more and she took it out on the lifeless body of Apollo.
~Flashback~
A shadow was hiding in a trees nearby the entrance to the forest. He saw Caroline enter the house with her Leafeon, leaving her kids defenceless and out in the open. He smirked.
'This is too easy.' he thought to himself. He created his own clones and assigned to them a kid they will stab with a knife. Mind you, when the clones disappear, the knives will as well but the damage of the knife will stay.
He made the signal and his clones went to the kids and stabbed them all at once. The kids let out cries of pain and the clones retrieved their knives from where they stabbed them.
"This is what you get for killing my family Caroline and Norman." he muttered stepping out to the sun and revealing his bright red eyes and fangs. He looked liked the angel of death, extremely beautiful but very dangerous. He retrieved his clones and was about to gather the bodies for disposal when...
"Curse you to hell!" He felt his arm get ripped off and everything then went black.
~End of Flashback~
Caroline gathered branches and even full trunks of trees quickly and gathered them in a pile in the middle of a field. She ordered the fire pokemon to put it to flames. When the flames looked like they reached the heavens, Caroline threw the limbs of Apollo in it and watched as it burned to ashes.
Her eyes were cold and lifeless as she stared at the flames. She signalled the water pokemon to use water gun and the flames died out completely. She walked over to her children and a sudden rush of sadness overwhelmed her.
She knelt in front of them and sobbed for a good five seconds when she remembered what Norman had told her the day they adopted them.
'You will have to turn them into vampires when the time is right. Good things are going to happen to these kids. They were destined to be vampires.' Caroline suddenly grinned, tears gone completely.
"I'm so happy I won't have to burn you kids." Caroline said and made Paul's almost dead body sit up. Then she bit him in the neck. She did the same to Misty, May, and Audrey. "It will be done in an hour."
~o~
12PM
NORMAN POV
Apparently my boss said I am such a good teacher that he wants me to have the rest of the day off. How cool is that?
"Now, any questions?" I heard Caroline say to the kids. I was just about to enter the house and I know they were near the forest entrance. I sniffed the air. Was that blood?
"Uh yeah." Audrey said innocently. "Does that mean we have powers too?" I closed the door quietly behind me and dropped my things to the floor.
"We'll see in time." Caroline said. I was just about to hold on to the door handle of the back door. "Sometimes, a vampire's powers arrive after a year or so."
"Oh." May said. "Okay."
"Here's my family." I said casually and entered our huge backyard. All heads turned toward me. May, Misty, Audrey, and Paul were sitting on the floor with their backs to the house. Caroline was the only standing up. I went to Caroline's side in a millisecond (literally) and kissed her cheek. "Did you tell them already about it?"
"Yep; I sure did." she replied smiling. Paul was looking at me.
"What powers do you have?" he asked plainly and the others nodded.
"Well, it's something like mind-reading only I have to have something that you own in my hands so I can see what's happened with you in your whole life.'
"So what do we do for food?" Misty asked frowning at the idea of killing people. I had to smile a little.
"Well, there are several types of vampires. The first one is vampires from the Barbaro Clan. Those kinds of vampires are already extinct. They feed on other vampires so you could say they're cannibals. Then there is the Karaniwan Clan and they're the kinds of vampires who feed on human blood. There aren't much of them left in this world. Then there's also the Diwa Clan, also extinct now, and they feed on people's souls. Then lastly, there are the kinds of vampires that can feed on natural resources, human food, and blood all at the same time; the Tangi Clan. That's us."
"So we don't have to drink kill humans to satisfy our hunger?" May asked looking relieved. I nodded.
"That's right. But every once in a while, we will have to drink blood so that we won't go berserk all of a sudden."
"Oh."
"So when were you originally planning to turn us into vampires?" Audrey asked Caroline.
"Well sweetie, we were planning to turn you into vamps in about five years."
"Why?"
"We want you to enjoy your human life first before you turn into vampires."
"Wouldn't it have been so much easier if you turned us unto vampires right away?" How many questions does she have? She's a curious girl.
"She sure is." Misty said as if reading my mind. Everyone but me looked at her weirdly. She looked at them weirdly. "What?...I am not crazy!" she said angrily glaring at Paul who looked surprised. Misty please say my name.
"Norman." she said plainly. "What is going on?" she asked me looking very confused.
"I think we have a mind-reader with us." I said to Caroline. Misty brightened up.
"That is so outstanding!" Caroline nodded and looked at our kids one at a time. I know exactly what she's doing. She's trying to find out their powers.
"Wow!" Misty said grinning excitedly at Caroline and me. Caroline blinked in surprised and grinned.
"Well, Paul can make things invisible, May can manipulate people, and Amy can control the elements, as in, all the elements including shadows and light."
"Sweet!" Audrey said pumping a fist in the air. Paul smirked and May frowned.
"I'm hungry." May said plainly. We all laughed. Paul controlled himself first before us.
"Way to kill the happy mood."
"Shut up." Paul wasn't able to open his mouth for one minute. "That's what you get."
"Meh."

2011, SLATEPORT CITY MALL
MAY POV
Shoot he's right there! I don't really want to see him now. It would make things worse.
"Harley?" Misty said raising a brow. I nodded my head.
"He somehow found me is going to tackle me in a hug." I said dully. "I'm sure of it." I don't really know why but I've always been so sure of what would happen. Just as I said it, Harley tackled me in a hug.
"Hey Gingerbread!" he said in a voice not normal for men. I pretended to choke on his 'death-hug.'
"Harley, I can't breathe!" I gasped. Misty gave me a slight nod. Oh I am good. Where's my award for best actress? Misty rolled her eyes at me. Harley let go off me instantly and I pretended to stumble and catch my breath.
"So sorry Gingerbread." he said in total sadness. "Guess I don't know my own strength." He flexed his so called muscles and I had to smile a little. Misty coughed once to hide her giggle. He grinned happily.
"We would really love to stay and chat but we have to go now." Misty said cutting off whatever Harley was supposed to say. "We're moving to LaRousse tonight after all." she reminded him. Harley frowned. I did really want to speak to Harley right now since he isn't jerky as he was before.
We met Harley and Soledad on the day we moved here. I didn't get along with Harley at first but then I found out his horrid past and I tried to be friends with him. He eventually opened himself up and we became close friends with Soledad here. Both of them would act like our parents whenever Caroline and Norman weren't around. They were really fun and I am so sad to leave them.
"Well, I hope you two don't forget us!" he said pulling me and Misty in a hug. We smiled behind his head and hugged him back. "Tell Paul and Aud I said hi also. Oh and before I could forget," Harley got a box from his back pack and handed it to me. "Cookies for your whole family!" he smiled widely as I put it in my shopping bag.
"Well, gotta go Harley." I said waving. "Tell Soledad we also say hi."
"Will do!" he said and happily walked to the store where he was working. I sighed and shook my head.
I'm so going to miss it here.
"Ditto." Misty answered.
~O~
PAUL POV
Aud was in the kitchen cooking dinner for all of us; fried rice and roasted chicken. Caroline and Norman were going back to Slateport right now from LaRousse. They were making sure our house was ready. They moved almost all of our stuff the nights previous and all that's left are our personal stuff for show.
"We're ho~ome!" May said as she and Misty entered the house. I slid down the side of the grand staircase and met them in the first floor.
"Welcome back." I said smiling. "Did you guys get my new books?"
"Yeah we did." Misty said handing me four cloth bags. Caroline is so obsessed in saving the world so you wouldn't see any member of our family holding a plastic bag. We always have cloth or paper bags with us.
"Great. Thanks." I said getting a book out already and starting to read. Norman had promised I will have my own Library right beside my room and I am very excited to put my new books there.
"Fried rice and roasted chicken?" May asked after sniffing the air.
"Yep!" was Aud's soft reply from the kitchen which was all the way across the mansion. "I'll be ready in five minutes or less!"
~O~
"This is probably the biggest house we've ever stayed in so far." May noted.
"True that." I said carrying two boxes of my books out of the car. Electivire carried four boxes and followed me inside the house where I led him to my new Library. Norman insisted that we don't use our strength and speed to quicken up the moving. It will attract attention of many nosy neighbours.
Some of our furniture won't come until later this week because the movers had a hard time bringing them here because they were antique (very fragile) and a lot. I blame the three Grand Pianos we have.
"That could be a reason." Misty said coming out from the living room. Accompanying her was Caroline's Espeon because Gyarados couldn't possibly help out much here.
"Yeah well, it's true." I said walking up the stairs already. Norman led me to my room just moments ago and I memorized the way to it. I opened the door with one hand carrying the two boxes and swung it open.
My room was practically the Library itself. There was just a wall that Caroline built to separate my room from the Library. I still had shelves and shelves for books in every spare space in my room for my books. Caroline was an architect if you're wondering but she could also be a fashion designer and an interior decorator.
I opened the curtains and let the light shine through the huge window. My room was in the side of the house. The whole wall facing the East was supposed to be a huge sliding door/window that leads to a terrace but Caroline changed it a little so only half of the wall is a sliding door and the other half is a wall for more shelves of books.
I asked Electivire to get the other boxes from downstairs while I fix everything already. He nodded an walked back down. I began to unpack the boxes and looked at the contents of the first four. It was filled with all the books related to school. I got the first box, a complete encyclopaedia set (it's a very big box), and placed them in the top part of the book shelf nearest my study table. I wouldn't really need a study table but all this is just for show. The shelves reached the floor to the ceiling so I used a ladder Caroline gave me for this very reason.
When Electivire came back with six boxes this time, they were all still books, I was already on the second shelf for the second box. My room had a very nice home feeling to it. It was all shaped to look like a room for book lover who also likes antique and old fashioned stuff. The bed was king-sized and had my antique, royal purple, coloured chest with a gold (real gold) lock. The floor was covered entirely of a dirty white, soft rug. There was a painting I did in my spare time on the wall where Caroline put an even more comfy rug and some pillows and bean bags. A reading corner, literally. There was this flat screen TV in between two shelves and a couch in front of it.
Call me a book worm if you want. I seriously wonder why a lot of people don't like reading books.

NORMAL POV
"Argh! I hate History!" a dark blue haired girl with blue eyes that lost the hint of excitement since she started doing her home works said and collapsed on her cousin's bed. Her name was Dawn Berlitz. Her cousin, Drew Hayden, has green hair and matching green eyes. He smirked at her and flicked his hair out of his face.
"Dawn, you hate every single subject known to man." Drew's twin, N Harmonia Hayden, who has the same green hair but longer went up to "defend" Dawn.
"Well, every subject known to her besides shopping." he said rolling his eyes. Dawn smiled innocently. There were four other people were in that room.
There was Ash Ketchum, black hair and chocolate brown eyes, with his Pikachu with their backs on the floor. He was finished with his homework because his mom was watching over him so he had no other choice but to do it.
Then there were two boys playing catch with a tennis ball. One of them had black hair and pale eyes. His eyes gave him that very mysterious look. His friends call him Seth, Seth Ridsadre. The other had dark red hair and pure black eyes that gave him a mysterious look as well. His name was Ethan, Ethan Coleone. The two were already finished with their home works long before.
Then lastly, there was a boy who was sitting on the foot of the bed, listening to his iPhone. He had midnight blue hair and forest green eyes. He, unlike the others, had done his home works while in school. He has an average of 94 so it was pretty easy for him. His name was Tyler Adams.
"Have you guys heard of the new students arriving any time this week?" Ethan asked catching the tennis ball expertly. This was child's play in comparison to the things he does in softball practice.
"Who hasn't?" N asked sitting in the computer chair while leaning forward to the back rest. (AN: Does this make any sense? O_O) "It's been the talk of the school for a week now."
"I heard they were from Slateport City." Ash said sitting up straight already.
"They supposedly moved into the big mansion that's bigger than the Amaya's just this morning." Tyler said with his eyes closed. "The mom of the kids supposedly remodelled it so it doesn't look like a haunted mansion."
"You want to go and make friends with them?" Seth asked looking at his friends. He didn't see the ball head straight for his head. It bounced off his head and landed in Dawn's lap which made her yelp. Ethan was rolling on the floor laughing.
"It would be nice to make new friends." Dawn said glaring at the two who had been playing catch.
"Hey do you have food Drew?" Ash asked eyes suddenly brightened.
"No you may not get food."
"Nyaw..."
