A/N: I love this movie, and I've tried to write fanfictions for it before, but none were worth posting, ending in me deleting the stories, but I decided to give it one last shot. This story is inspired by my younger cousin in part, because the day I wrote this was the first time she'd ever seen The Little Vampire. R&R, and tell me what you think!
"Lord McAshton!", Bob called, trying to get the older man's attention.
Said Lord walked over to us.
"I'd like you to meet my son, Tony. This is Bonnie Duff-McCay. She's Tony's babysitter.", Bob told him.
"Finally, little Tony Thompson. Let's feel that firm American grip.", but as Lord McAshton said this, we both saw my step-father's truck coming up the road.
"Shake Lord McAshton's hand.", Tony did as told, though rather terrified.
"Tony's very excited to hear about your family history, aren't you, Tony? Bonnie is as well, I believe, right?", Bob asked us.
"Not right now we're not!", we chorused.
Lord McAshton looked around in the direction we were looking, Tony having jumped into my arms.
As I tried to calm him down, Lord McAshton said something about his family, then hurried off towards Rookery.
"I want you both to stay away from that guy. He's crazy.", Bob told us.
"Don't need to tell me twice. He's my step-father, though I don't claim him.", I said a tad bit Icily.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Bonnie. I didn't know.", Bob tried to apologize.
"It's okay. He's the reason I make sure to let people know my last name is hyphenated.", I replied, feeling Tony pull on my sleeve.
"Is it okay if we look around. Tony knows Lord McAshton's youngest grandsons from school.", I asked.
"Sure, but stay with him at all times, Bonnie.", Bob replied, getting to work with the blueprints in his hand.
We followed Lord McAshton and Rookery into the house, sneaking around behind them.
"My ancestor, Elizabeth McAshton.", the lord said, pointing up at a picture of a very pretty woman with red hair.
"The stone of Attamon.", Rookery said dreamily, his hand practically flying to his own necklace.
They talked for a bit more before I became interested.
"His name was Von Sackville-bagg.", I gasped as my step-father said that.
My darling Gregory's uncle had managed to stay alive. I sat pondering that, making a mental note to tell Fredrick that the rumors were true, until Tony shook my shoulder.
We hurried after the two men, and one quick appearance of the Lord of the Underworld later, we were in the McAshton tomb. Rookery and Lord McAshton opening the tomb that she was supposedly in. I say supposedly because when the lifted the lid of the tomb, she was not there.
"Bonnie, she was moved!", Tony whispered excitedly.
"Shhh!", I hissed, turning back to the men.
But just then, the rail Tony was leaning on broke.
"TONY!", I yelled, making my step-father shut the tomb and turn to find me.
"YOU! I KNEW IT! YOU TURNED THE THOMPSON BOY, DIDN'T YOU GIRL?", he yelled, causing me to fall through the railing.
"Sorry, my Lord, but I must deal with this one on my own.", he growled, carrying off, but not before knocking me out.
When I woke, I was hanging upside down, in a dark, torch lit room. My step-father was sharpening a steak.
"Well, someone's decided to join me. I'll give you a choice, because you're family. One, you tell me where the rest of your clan is,", he spat the word 'clan' out, "and then I'll kill you, or I could torture you until you tell me, then kill you. Either way I'm going to find out. Your mother would hardly notice your absence.", Rookery told me, grinning evilly.
"Never!", I spat.
"Option two it is then, girly.", he cackled, taking a torch off of the wall.
He brought it towards me, letting the flames lick my neck. I screamed, and the tears sprung to my eyes.
"GREGORY!", I yelled, praying he could hear me.
"Who is this 'Gregory' person, or rather demon?", Rookery asked.
"GREGORY!", I screamed though tears.
"Is he your demon lover I saw fly away from my house, Girl?", he asked, getting angrier as I just yelled for Gregory again.
(GPOV)
I was asleep, happy the my father had apologized to Bonnie, when I heard my love's screams of my name echoing in my ears.
I sat bolt upright, glad the muzzle was off. I saw my sister, wide awake as well, trying to wake our brother, Rudolph.
"What?", I heard him mutter.
"Tony's calling. He could be in danger!", Anna whispered, causing Rudolph to shoot straight up.
"Gregory, what's wrong?", Anna asked, noticing me.
"I need you to untie my hands. Bonnie went with Tony. I can hear her screaming. She needs help!", I told them, which made Anna run around to my back and untied my hands.
"The sun. Well, daylight or not we must go.", Rudolph stated, taking some things from around us.
Dressed as ridiculous as I believed possible, we hurried off to find them.
My siblings were hurrying towards the McAshton place, but I found Bonnie's scent. She was at her own home. I tracked her to the basement, where I could hear the screams outside of my own head. I came to one solid conclusion as to what to do. I kicked in the door, determined to get my darling Bonnie out of there without harming her.
(Back to BPOV)
I continued to yell his name for what felt like hours, but stopped when I heard the door of the room fly open. I looked over and saw him. Gregory was standing there, a wild look in his eyes. He ran forward and grabbed Rookery by the throat.
"You dare to touch her?", he said in a deadly voice.
Rookery said nothing, but tried to fight Gregory off. I mentally laughed at his weak attempt to fight off my vampire boyfriend. Gregory flung him across the room, then picked him back up. Reminded of the Incredible Hulk, I just watched as Gregory, thanks to his vampire strength and agility, threw my step-father around like a little rag doll.
Gregory released him only when he had fallen unconscious. Gregory then untied me and held me in his arms.
"What did he do to you?", he asked, gently moving my hair over my left shoulder.
"He took the torch and held it against me, questioning me about your family. He laughed every time I called for you. He told me he saw you leave one night.", I said, shaking as I felt the burns on my neck.
"Even if he did, who would believe him?", Gregory asked, placing an ice cold finger on my neck.
"No one other than Lord McAshton. Thanks for that. The burn doesn't hurt as much.", I responded, letting him tighten his hold on me.
His hold did not loosen as we went to find Tony, Rudolph, and Anna.
"You found her!", I heard Rudolph cry out.
"Rudy, quiet down please.", I muttered.
"What happened?", Anna whispered, hurrying over to her eldest brother.
"Rookery took her and burned her neck.", he growled.
"Oh dear!", she exclaimed, her and flying to her mouth.
"Anna, I don't think it's the best time to be that loud.", Tony said softly.
"Of course, Tony dearest.", Anna replied, batting her eyes at my charge.
"Anna, could you come here for a moment?", I asked, leading her off to the side.
"I said something I shouldn't have again, didn't I?", she asked in a panicky voice.
"Well, I guess it's kind of my fault. I've been meaning to explain dating, or as you know it, courting, to you. Now, it usually doesn't occur until girls, and guys, are generally around thirteen. Tony is too young to really even be interested in girls. They, as to say boys, don't really start to notice girls until their about twelve, sometimes eleven. Tony may return your feelings eventually, but now, he just thinks girls are gross.", I told her, giving her a smile.
"Things really have changed over the last several hundred years, even us. I have never seen my brother, Gregory that is, happier than he is when he's with you.", Anna whispered, her smile brighter than any smile I had ever seen.
I hugged her close, both of us giggling. Carrying Anna in my arms, the two of us went back to the boys.
From there, we split up. Gregory took me to the cliffs to make the call. Anna, Rudy, and Tony went to find the stone.
The area I saw was just like it had been in my dream. Obviously, due to recent events, Gregory had me right next to him. His arm was around my waist, not that I minded.
"Are you all right, darling?", he asked, continuing to spin Fredrick's necklace over his head.
"I'm fine. I was just remembering my dream.", I replied, shuddering slightly.
"Bonnie, I love you. I won't let my cousin near you, even if it means I won't get my humanity back. I'd rather you be alive and happy. If I was to die or miss the ceremony, I'd be happy as long as you were happy.", he told me, smiling down at me.
"But if you did die, I wouldn't be very happy, now, would I?", I asked him with a smirk on my face.
"Therefore, I cannot die, I suppose.", Gregory said, making me giggle softly.
"Damn straight.", I whispered, leaning into his side.
"Now, I must ask, where did you learn to use that sort of language.", he said jokingly.
"School, you, my mother, my step-father.", I answered, watching as he smiled even more.
"Now I regret using that sort of language around you.", he joked, making me gently slap his shoulder.
"How did you hear me calling you? I meant to ask that earlier.", I asked, curious as to how he knew.
"I am not quite sure. I woke up with your voice screaming my name in my head. Anna was awake, saying Tony was calling her. I knew the two of you were supposed to be together, so I, along with Rudolph, found what we could use to sneak out during the day. I found a long cloak and a pair of gloves, surprisingly, that I used to get to your house.", he said, finishing just as the first sounds of leathery bat wings filled the air.
"They're here.", I said in a whisper, not wanting to be anywhere near Andrew.
"Hello, Cousin. I thought Uncle would be making the call.", the tall blonde said.
"He has another responsibility to attend to.", Gregory lied.
Even I knew he had stolen the necklace when he came to rescue me. Freda and Fredrick were probably trying to get Bob and Dottie out of the house before Rookery shows up. As for the kids, we were both clueless.
"Who is this beautiful creature?", Andrew asked, taking a step towards me.
Gregory pulled me as close as he could, and just as Andrew reached for me, the amethyst stone in my necklace sent him backwards.
"What was that?", Andrew asked, looking like he had been hit with an electric shock.
"Amethyst. It protects women from seduction. I was given this necklace for the sole purpose of keeping you away from me.", I said, sounding braver than I really felt.
"If I can't touch you, then why can he?", Andrew asked, pointing at Gregory as his sisters rushing to help him.
"Because, you pathetic low life, she is mine.", Gregory bellowed.
I clung to Gregory, my dream fresh in my mind. He was so not getting sent over the cliffs this time.
"What do you mean by that, Cousin?", Andrew growled, oblivious to Gregory's arms around me.
"Are you as thick as you look, Brother?", one of the girls said.
She was tall, slender, had long, light brown hair, and was obviously quicker on the uptake than her brother was.
"Shut up, Catherine.", Andrew snapped, rounding on his sister.
"What if I don't?", she questioned, having more nerve than anyone I had ever known.
Andrew raised his hand, ready to strike her. He swung, but Gregory's hand grabbed his wrist. There was a cold fury I had never seen before shining in Gregory's eyes. When he next spoke, I thought I was hearing Fredrick.
"Andrew Adder Sackville-bagg, your father taught you better than that. You do NOT, under any circumstance, harm a woman. You should count yourself lucky that one, you have Catherine as a sister, and two, that only your father can punish you for your actions. Catherine, dear cousin, where is Uncle Brian?", he said, his tone towards Catherine much nicer than it was towards Andrew.
"He is on his way. We were out hunting when we heard the call.", Catherine said in a kind, gentle voice.
I looked over at Andrew, who was backing away from Gregory. I smiled, glad to see him terrified. Gregory seemed to notice as well, because I heard him let out a faint chuckle as he continued to make the call.
A/N: I figured I should stop there, and yes, I know it's short. Would you rather nothing? I've already covered most of the movie. Remember, this is what Bonnie is seeing and hearing. As Rookery knows her, she must be hidden from him when he gets close to the Sackville-baggs. R&R, and please remember this is a fanfiction. I get annoyed when people seem to forget that. :D Smiles :D
