Good Riddance, Nobody's Home (Avril Lavigne)(Green Day)

BeeeeeeeeeeeeP……………

"Still no heart beat?" A mans voice whispered from beyond the pressing sheet of darkness. "That's just not possible, she's still breathing…" He sighed tiredly. "All our machines can't be wrong…"

"Doctor," A females voice called softly. "Dr. Thomas Manning from the FBI is here, he says he would like to take a look at your patient."

'Manning?' I thought unconsciously.

"Yes, of coarse send him in please." He responded and I could hear the clanking of some metal tools being moved around just off my left side, and the Doctor clearing his throat just as the door swung open and closed briefly before opening again letting me know Tom Manning had entered.

"Doctor Allen, inform me on the patients situation." A older mans voice asked moving closer towards me.

The doctor cleared his throat again and I could here him picking up what sounded like a clip board from the table near my head.

"Well, she was found near Chicago after the apartment building she had been occupying with her mother and brother collapsed. We've hooked her up to about four of our heart monitoring machines which suggest she has no heart beat," He breathed wearily. "but she's still breathing so that's impossible. We tried to apply an IV but all the needles we tried just weren't able to pierce her skin, I, I just don't know what to make of it Dr. Manning. When she was admitted the paramedics said she had a pretty bad bit mark on the left side of her neck…most likely from a dog, but from we can tell its already healed except for a thin scar, and its difficult to believe an animal would have done it the ambulance was on site pretty fast and it seems unlikely that an animal would have just ran up, bit her neck and left before anything could have been seen…this whole case doesn't seem to fit together," He informed. "What do you make of it Dr. Manning, you are after all the one who insisted she be transferred here."

"I think she needs specific help, and for that I will have her transferred to a special hospital where doctors under my control will look over her," He replied. "Nothing against you, of coarse, Doctor Allen, but my superiors and I want her looked over by specially trained personal."

"Oh well, Dr. Manning do you really think all that's necessary?" Dr. Allen asked uncertainly.

Manning breathed deeply. "Lets talk outside," He said calmly. "There's some paper work I would like you to fill out."

The men left the room and I could hear the door click shut as they did. I took the opportunity to 'feel' around the room, it was empty now, except for me. I opened my eyes quickly and sat up, the absence of IV's made it easy to slide out of the bed. There was no bandages on my arms and my skin appeared unmarred. Looking around the room I could see every detail of the wallpaper, and I could see every thread in the bed sheets. My eye sight was incredible. I walked over to the window and looked down at the ground that was four stories underneath me.

'Great how am I gunna get out of this…' I thought frustrated. I noticed the sign by the side of the road that read, "New Jersey Hospital".

"New Jersey!" I whispered as a sick feeling rose in my stomach. "I have to get out of here…"

I spun away quickly and noticed my ripped up bloody cloths where laying on a table across the room. They'd have to do for now. I pulled off the uncomfortable hospital gown and pulled on my equally uncomfortable cloths. Torn Blood stained jeans, torn black t shirt, and my old boots.

I ran back to the window and looked out, voices from the hallway where getting louder and I knew I'd have to jump.

"Merde!"

The door in the room swung open swiftly and I looked back at the two men rushing at me, I panicked and let my grasp slip from the window sill and I fell, feeling the sick sinking feeling in my stomach as I did.

There wasn't time to try to grab on to anything to try to save my self before my body crashed into the concrete.

People screamed in the distance and loud talking surrounded me as I laid there in a crater of broken tarmac. Sitting up I noticed no blood anywhere on me. No marks. No blood. I was complexly fine.

I jumped up and ran away from the hospital as I heard shouting from behind me that I heard clearly as, "Stop Her!" It didn't faze me, as I continued to run, faster than I'd ever run. I didn't try to calculate just how fast I was moving, but the cars I easily passed on the surrounding Highway gave me some idea. Running though the swarm of rushing cars I maneuvered though them with easy, seeing every move they made, hearing every sound with ease. I raced passed the highway until I finally stopped dead in a dark dingy looking back alley. Looking around once realization hit me that I had no where really to run to. I was in a dark part of some town I was unfamiliar with. I had crossed a busy highway and gone down about twenty side streets and found myself lost in a dark alley.

"Ahh…this can be happening to me…" I sighed hopelessly.

I fell against the dirty brick wall on the left side of the ally.

"What's happened to me…" I moaned. Then it all clicked in my mind, the memory of what had happened flashed through my mind in play back, like a movie someone was forcing you to watch even though you knew the outcome.

She was dead, my brother was gone, and I was now stuck in New Jersey. But why had I been brought to New Jersey, And what had happened to The Troll and that Man Drakkar? My eyes widened with comprehension. "He bit me…" I whispered. "Vampire…"

My eyes widened and the sick feeling returned like a sack of bricks in my stomach.

No that's not possible…is it. He was I a Vampire but….is that what I had become? That's why I didn't have a heart beat. It all fit. My wounds had all healed with the exception of the scar from where he had bit me, and I felt no pain when I had impacted the hard concrete, that must be why the FBI wanted me.

I rapped my arms around my legs and let my energy flow around me. I looked at the dumpster across from me and squinted my eyes causing it to moan and creek as it dented and bent under my energy. Looking back down I let a single tear fall unmonitored from my cheek.

"I just want to go home…." I whispered.

I felt my eyes close and then blackness over took me into sleep.

…………………………dreamless sleep…….................................................

"Eh, boys look what we got ere'"

My eyes shot open. It was dark out, I guess I'd been out for a while again. I stood up to face the source of the voice. Surrounding me was a group of rough looking street walkers.

"Eeh, sexy why you out here all alone," A tall broad man asked. "We can help Ya…"

I looked them all over before replying. "No I'm fine…" I said bluntly.

They all laughed a bit at that, for some reason I could not see.

"Aw, come on Babe…"

"Don't call me babe…" I shot dangerously.

The man stepped closer and gripped by wrists tightly in his hands. Flashes of his memories and thoughts hit my mind as he touched me. This man was wanted for the rape and murder of over seventeen women, and he and his gang believed I was going be his next victim. As his thoughts hit me he pulled away quickly as though a electric current had shocked him, but he shook it off quickly.

"Aw come on lets ave' some fun…"

I brought my eyes up to meet his. "I said I'm fine, I don't feel like doing this right now so get your hands off me before I have to make you.." I said through gritted teeth.

He flipped a knife up to meet my gaze. "I said lets have some fun…"

I drew my power through my veins and my eyes flashed bright green. "Get off of me!" I shot 'throwing' him across the ally.

He hit the wall opposite of me and the side of his head was cut on the rough brick structure.

The bright crimson liquid ran from the fresh cuts and dripped onto the concrete, and suddenly something snapped inside of me and my stomach growled hungrily as the air was filled with the most amazing aroma I had ever smelled. I tried to look away and run off but I was drawn to him. I strode towards him and ran a finger over his cuts as he sat frightened by what I'd just done.

I licked the blood off my finger and my mouth watered for more and my stomach growled savagely. "NO!" I shouted to my self. "Your stronger then that…" I whispered.

I stood up as I was overcome with a wave of horror. I was actually thinking of killing someone.

I slammed my fists into the bricks breaking several of them. "I am not a murderer!" I yelled eyes flashing dangerously as I surveyed the group of men who looked confused and frightened. With one last look at the bleeding man in the corner I ran from the alley way and left them behind me, bright lights shown on the sky line, and so I race towards them leaving cars, people, and this dark town behind me. It had to be New York, and that was my best shot, I couldn't live in these dark streets here. And in New York maybe I could become some kind of vigilante, there was always a load of crime in New York, and from what Sam had told me it was known for its freak paranormal occurrences. And who better to aid the people then a Vampire. New York by far right now, seemed to be my best hope if I want to live and maybe to some good in the world. A sense of meaning suddenly flooded me, I would avenge my mother, I would stop The Troll and Drakkar from resurrecting their priest and I would stop them from all in all destroying the world.

The thought was laughable though, I mean really? I was going to save the world? Maybe that would have seemed impossibly far fetched a few days ago but now it seemed to fit.

I had just a little further to run now, I had crossed two bridges and tons of intersections. In the distance there stood group old warehouses just a bit further towards the shore line, I could spend the night there.

The noise of the city was outrageously loud, horns blared, people talked and shouted, and sirens blared in the distance.

Bright lights and people flashed by me and a clock in a Walgreens window told me it was 12:36 AM. The closer I came to the ware houses the less the noise became until it was just a background hum.

I could see The Statue of Liberty was visible on the horizon light gleaming from her torch, it gave me a weird feeling as I stood looking at the monument. I thought about all the people who has come to America and looked upon this same statue for the first time, it was amazing.

I stayed looking at the statue for a couple minutes, listening to the gentle lapping of the waves against the docks not far from my right letting it soothe me.

I closed my eyes and breathed steadily in and out placing my self in a meditative state until a loud crashing from with in the warehouse made me turn. Just inside the ajar metal doors was a large serpentine creature with bright yellow eyes.

It hissed loudly and headed straight towards me. "Oh shit." I muttered jumping out of the creatures way as it lunged forward.

I drew on my power and blasted it back into the steel frame causing it to moan and dent intensely. "Oh wow, I'm actually fighting a monster, who'd of known!" I half laughed, though I stopped quickly as the creature lunged itself at me and swinging its tail around slamming me face first into the concrete.

Now it was my turn to hiss in anger. I used my telekinesis to lift me off the ground as I jumped over the serpent, landing on the roof of the warehouse just out of its reach. But, it seemed to have methods of getting me into its range as it began slamming its body into the already dented metal wall causing the roof to waver and crack. I leapt off the roof combining by new vampire abilities and my telekinetic powers to land on its head slamming its skull into the concrete shattering it instantly, killing the vicious creature. Blood splashed up onto my skin.

I stood looking down, shaking slightly.

My cloths where now almost completely soaked with blood. I raised my right hand and watched momentary as the blood dripped from my fingers before hungrily licking it off.

I knelt down to the creature in a sort of trance craving the tasted or its blood; But before I could feast the sound of heavy footsteps behind me made me pause.

"Damn…" A deep male voice said.

I turned quickly power ready to strike, my hands up in defensive position only to be dropped instantly.

"Oh my God…" Was all I could whisper as I stood looking at the figure.

The bright red demon had a huge grin on his face as he causally lit a cigar.

"Looks like you took care of the situation, saved me a lot time, Thanks kid." He said.

I snapped out of my trance. "Yeah, no problem…"

I leapt of the snakes head and landed gracefully in front of my idol trying not to look like a geek.

He looked down at me, seeing as he was greatly taller than me.

"So what's your story?" He asked.

"Huh?" I idiotically responded.

He laughed slightly. "What's your name, kid."

"Shawna Zander, But, um…everyone just calls me Nash…"

He grinned wider and then began to laugh. And I was sure I was blushing uncomfortably at this point.

"So you're the kid Manning was gunna bring back to the bureau, but from what I heard you jumped out a four story window," He explained. "But don't worry I would have done the same thing, Manning's such a pain in the…"

"Red what's going on?" A soft male voice said from behind him cutting him off.

Hellboy turned to face the new comer. "Hey Blue I found the New Guy."

"New Guy?" I questioned.

The new man stepped beside Hellboy and I saw him clearly. He had blue skin and fish like features, and was wearing some sort of apparatus around his neck, I guessed it was for breathing.

"Manning's had agents looking all round Jersey for Ya, guess he didn't think ta look in New York…Idiot" Hellboy explained. "But hey I'll give Ya a choice, if you don't wanna come back to the bureau with us and deal with manning's crap, I'll let ya's go now and I wont tell him a thing, but if ya wanna come back with us ya got an open invitation."

The Blue man looked at me with a look of sorrow, almost as if he knew something.

"I think I'll go with you… actually." I replied looking back at the man. "I've got no where else."

Hellboy looked from me to blue and nodded. "Ok, well then lets pack it up and go home…"

He turned an walked aback towards where he had come from but I hesitantly grabbed the blue mans arm and held him back.

"My names Nash, just so you know, Nash Zander." I explained.

He smiled slightly. "My names Abe Sapien," He said. "it's a horrible name but…"

"I don't think its horrible…its unique, I like it…"

I swore I saw his face flicker dark blue. "Oh well…um thank you…"

We began to walk again, back to where Hellboy had gone, but Abe suddenly stopped me.

"Nash you feel sad…are you alright?" He said seriously concerned.

"Oh um…just a lot of things have happened in a small space of time…but I'm sure I'll end up having to tell everyone when we get back to the uh…bureau…"

He nodded. "Well um if you ever want to talk, just maybe you and me, I'd me happy to…" He started. "I'm telepathic, I can read things…people," He stopped seeing my worried expression. "You look frightened I'm sorry…"

I looked away quickly. "Oh no it nothing… its just, I'm telepathic to a degree, but when I read people it hurts them, and I've never met anyone one else who could"

He put his hand on my shoulder. "I wont read you with out permission, I promise you…Nash…I would never invade your privacy like that." He assured me seriously. "Maybe I can help you learn to control it"

I smiled up at him. "Um…thanks Abe…"

"You guys coming or what!" Red said walking towards us. "Oh…" He grinned upon seeing us. "Where you two having a moment?!" He said grinning wider. "Cause I'll come back later…"

"Abe and I where just talking about…my… abilities…" I replied blushing again I feared.

"Oh…" He said looking not as enthusiastic. "Well come on or Manning will be wondering where we are…and he'll accuse me of stopping at dunkin donuts again…"

"You did stop at dunkin donuts…"Abe said lazily.

He laughed. "Yeah but he doesn't need to know that!"

"You had the cup with you to prove it." Abe stated back.

He looked a bit defeated but wouldn't admit it. "Well…whatever come on…"

I followed my new comrades over to a large garbage truck and watched Hellboy climbed into the back as I stood staring oddly at him.

"A garbage truck? Why?"Abe climbed in after Hellboy. "Well we have to be hidden from the people, every aspect of the bureau is a secret," He waved his hands in motion with his words. "Officially we do not exist."

I nodded oddly and took his hand as he offered it to me to help me in to the large lab compartment.

The door closed after us and I could feel the truck begin to move.

"So according to what I've heard," Hellboy started. "You're from Chicago, so how come you ended up here? Manning drag ya?"

I breathed deeply trying to avoid his eyes and I felt Abes hand on my shoulder.

"She's hurting…she will explain everything when we get back to the bureau…"

Hellboy cocked his head then nodded.

As the ride continued Hellboy and Abe explained more about themselves and the bureau to me.

Abe was found in a state of suspended animation, in a water filled tube of sorts, under St. Trinian's hospital in Washington D.C 1978. He had no memory from before he was awakened with electrical stimulation. He's telepathic and is impressively intelligent.

Hellboy was summoned by Nazis in 1944, but was found by a group of allies, which included Professor Trevor Broom, who had raised him as his son, and who had been murdered by a man named Kronoen. Recently he had found that he was summoned my a Russian monk named Gregori Rasputin.

"Rasputin?!" I asked startled.

He grunted in response. "Yeah, but I did away with him last year…""He's dead?" I asked quickly.

"Yeah…Dead as dead can get. Him and Kronoen."

I sighed. "Then I defiantly have something to tell you guys, but I'll wait till where at the bureau so you can hear the whole story…" I explained.

He eyed me. "Huh…"

We only had time to talk a little longer before the truck slowed to a stop and the door opened allowing us to exit.

We jumped out of the truck and saw a balding man in a suite and small reading glasses coming towards us.

"Ok so…" She stopped seeing me. "Uh…who's this, you brought a civilian back to Head Quarters are you trying to get me fired!?"

Hellboy grinned evilly and laughed and placed a hand firmly on my shoulder.

"It's the new guy…" Hellboy stated then adding. "Nash Zander…"

Manning looked startled then composed himself.

"Miss Zander….oh um…"

Hellboy Answered Manning's unsaid question.

"We went to the location where the snake thing was seen and she'd already taken care of it…"

Manning flipped some pages on his clip board and the cleared his throat like he had done at the hospital.

"Oh well, will you please come with me Miss Zander I'd like to ask you some questions about the night of the accident."

Hellboy eyed me. "Accident?" He murmured.

"Of coarse but I'd like it if Hellboy and Abe would accompany me, Id' like them to hear the story as well." I said casually.

He breathed deeply then answered. "Yes, of coarse, please follow me Miss Zander."

We followed him down about two halls made of plain gray concrete with different pipe and wires chris-crossing the walls before we entered a large conference room with a large table made of a dark hard wood in its center, an array of chairs placed all around it.

We all took seats as Manning addressed me. "Now can you re account the events of that night for us, Miss Zander."

I closed my eyes and nodded. Taking a deep breath I began divulging my memory of the night.

"Me and my boyfriend had broken up, and I left to my friend Sams house to unwind, we talked a bit and looked at some amusing pictures she'd found of Hellboy on the internet…" Hellboy cut me off excitedly.

"OoO… which ones!!!"

I laughed a bit. "I recall you where giving the peace sign…"

He burst out laughing. "Oh yeah, that one in Central Park!"

Manning cleared his throat loudly. "Please continue, Miss Zander."

"Well we experimented with my telepathy and it was almost eleven before I left for home, my mum usually calls before then to make sure I'm ok, but when she didn't I got worried, I called her about seven times on my way back home…"I breathed out shakily. "But she never answered any of the calls and I ran home as fast as I could. When I got there the security door was open and when I went up to our level in the building and our door was…" My voice wavered slightly. "It was open and I found her…" My breathing became strained. "I found her in her bedroom, and she…she was gone..." Tears rolled down my face and Abe gently rapped his arms around me soothing me with telepathy I stared past everyone glaring at the wall as the event replied in my mind. "Then a man came up behind me, Drakkar, he was the vampire who bit me…he was with a man named Michael Schaumburg, who mum had married when I was seven, he was always abusive towards me and her and he said he'd had taken my brother to where he belonged. He told me they where trying to resurrect their preist, a man they called Rasputin. He told me that he and Drakkar where followers of the Ogdru Jahad and that they wanted me to help them retrieve the Right Hand of Doom after they had resurrected Rasputin." Hellboy shifted uncomfortably. "I used my telekinesis to throw them away from me, but Drakkar lunged at me and bit me and I lost control and sent out a wave of energy that brought the building down. I couldn't see them after that and I remember laying next to my mother and just dying…"

Tears fell unmanaged down my face and Abe continued to hold me.

"These men are trying to resurrect Rasputin!" Hellboy said loudly.

I nodded and looked away from the wall to him wiping my tears away with my right hand. "Yeah… and they are after some right hand of doom thing."

Hellboy held up his stone right hand. "Well they'll have to cut it from my cold dead body…"

My eyes sifted to his hand. "That's the right hand of doom…why didn't I figure that out?" I looked down and stared towards the floor.

Abe continued to hold me and I got to thinking that maybe it was something he needed, maybe he was lonely? Maybe I'm lonely…Oh Dear God what am I thinking!?

………………………………...................................

"Miss Zander?" Manning questioned and I snapped out of my trance. "Miss Zander I am sorry for your lost and I want to offer you a position as a special agent for the bureau, I have a room for you and all you needs will be taken care of, if you would like of coarse, or we could help you get on your feet if you'd like to pursue a normal-er life."

I nodded. "No, there is nothing out there for me…I accept fully."

Manning nodded and pulled his clip board back to him.

"Ok now I need to ask you some background questions." He stated. "What was your mothers name?"

"Rose Schofield…"

"And your father?"

I shook my head. "His name was Akron Zander, I never knew him. My mother said he was from another country and left before I was born."

Manning nodded. "I'll have my superiors look into it, see if we might be able to contact him…" He noted on his papers. "Your half brother?"

"Charles Schaumburg."

"What side for your family did you inherit your telekinesis/ telepathy from, if any."

"I really don't know, if any it would have been my fathers side."

He nodded. "Ok and you've been turned by a vampire?"

"Yes."

"Have you had any blood?"

I looked down quickly. "Um…not really…see when I ran away from the hospital I ended up falling asleep in some alley and there was all these men around me and one pulled a knife on me, I threw him off me and he started to bleed…and something just clicked in my mind and I, I almost killed him…I said quickly. "I stopped my self, and ran…but I mean I almost killed someone…."

Manning cut me off.

"The man was named Jonathan Garcia, he was wanted for seventeen rapes in New Jersey and for murder in about three other states, so really it was a good thing you got him, the police arrested him shortly after you left I suspect. Now him and he's friends are facing life sentences."

Abe still held me, gently stroking my hair. and I felt a little better, it still scared me that I even thought about murder though. Abe seemed to ease my tension even more, he seemed to be calming me through my mind, and I silently thanked him for it.

"Well that's all for now…if you would like you could stay in the room that used to belong to Pro. Broom, its just above the library."

I turned to Hellboy to ask him if he would be upset with me staying in his fathers room.

He smiled at me. "It's ok with me kid, welcome to the family."

I smiled back at him. "Thanks Red."

Abe helped me up. "I stay in the library myself, I can take you to your room."

I nodded. "I'll see ya later Red," I said walking towards the door with Abe. "And thank you Dr. Manning."

He nodded.

Abe and I left the room and I became aware that he was holding my hand.

A strange feeling rose in my stomach, like the feeling I once felt with Ash…Oh God No….was I attracted to Abe?!

He has to be to old for me! Well, seeing as I was a vampire now I guess I would never age and so it wouldn't matter…but still!

My silent war in my mind waged on until Abes voice ceased the battle.

"Nash are you alright?" He asked concerned.

I snapped out of my thoughts and saw we were standing in front of two large gold doors.

"Oh yes, fine, I'm ok…." I said quickly.

He cocked his head to the side slightly before opening the doors and reveling a amazingly large library.

"Oh my God!" I said in amazement hurrying over to the book shelves. "Sam would just die! Its paradise!"

Abe laughed softly. "You like to read?"

"Oh yes! I absolutely love to!" I said sounding like a five year old on Christmas.

He placed his hand on my shoulder again. "As do I, I have read four books everyday for thirty years straight basically." He stated and my heart sank a bit. "Though it does get old…"

'Thirty years!' I screamed mentally.

I cleared my throat and tried to sound casual. "So, Abe, exactly how old are you?"

He cocked his head again, a gesture I found…attractive?

"I was found under the hospital in 1978, but I've been like this since , I mean to say that I never, in essence, was a child…I was always this way…" He said sound a bit sad. "Some times I do wish I could have been…"

He looked into my eyes and grabbed my hand gently and lead me over to what appeared to be a large fish tank.

He pointed to a small piece of paper encased in glass that read 'Icthyo Sapien, April 14, 1865'.

"I guess I had some sort of past, not one that I can recall, but, I do believe there was something…"

I rapped my arms around him and held him into me. "I'm sorry Abe…"

He seemed taken aback but held me to him none the less.

"And I'm sorry for what's happened to you…"

And that was that…we stood there, simply holding each other, feeling each others emptiness, sorrow and loneliness.

We linked, and I felt truly connected to him, more so than anyone I'd ever met or loved before. I was alone now in the world and so was he, and we needed each other, we needed to care for each other and we both found peace in one another, and I suddenly felt at home where I belonged.


Ok Ok Cheesy ending but thats what makes it a sweet moment. Nash is Alone and Abe Feels in away alone. I guess you could say he envys Red because he has Liz, but he wont admit it because hes Abe. So Nash Doesn't know what to do and Abe doesnt know what to do...Oh what attraction does to people. Rate and Message plz!!
