Disclaimer: Ok these get old after the second one. I don't own Jack. Not only do I not own Jack, but I also don't own Twilight, or anything having to do with the Twilight series.
I'm sorry it took so long to update, but my life's been nuts lately, and I just haven't had time. You'll probably be disappointed with this chapter, since it took so long to write something, not that good, but I hope you like it.
I think I will have Jacob references in the next chapter. And a Robert Pattinson reference, also. So pay attention, and if you get them, well I don't know what I'll do, but I just wanted to see if you guys would catch them.
Previously on "A New Danger"
We reached the door, and he reached out and turned the knob, opening the door, to the house full of vampires. Friendly or unfriendly, I didn't know.
"Temper tantrum" or "More questions"
The inside looked a lot like the outside, wooden.
The first thing that I noticed was two people sitting on a couch talking, words too fast for my ears. A man and a woman.
The man had rust colored hair, and looked to be in his 30's. He looked so calm and tranquil talking, but as he turned to me his look became disapproving.
The woman had dark brown curly hair and never stopped smiling, as she looked at me.
The man stood up and walked over to us.
"Now, you should have told us we were going to have guests." He looked first at Connor as he talked, then to me, then at our hands which were still entwined. He then turned back to Connor as he continued.
"Connor, she, she looks like-"
"I know." Connor replied his smile fading, and his voice turning icy.
The man then looked back at our hands.
"What have I always told you? Talk it out first." The man looked back up at Connor.
Connor quickly released my hand.
"Sorry." He mumbled to the floor. The man shook his head then turned back to me.
"I'm sorry for that; my son can be quite rude at times. My name is Victor Bowen, welcome to our home." Rude? What was going on here?
"Um, thanks. I'm Bella. Bella Swan."
"Ah, Chief Swan's daughter." He then turned back to Connor.
"May I speak to you? Privately." He asked. Aw, crap, now I have to sit in here with a vampire I don't even know, while father and son have a heart to heart chat?
"She knows." Connor answered simply. Victor looked stunned. Then as that passed, I saw anger start to flair. The woman walked over to Victor, and grabbed his hand.
"Now, Victor, I'm sure we can talk this out. No need to lose your temper." She soothed. I was very appreciative for that.
She then turned to me, looked me up and down then spoke.
"Hello, Bella. My name is Gladelle." Why was everyone being so nice to me? Why didn't they just kill me?
"Can we just sit and talk this over?" Connor asked breaking the silence. Victor simply nodded, and Gladelle walked over to the couch holding hands with Victor.
Connor and I walked over to the couch facing the one holding Victor and Gladelle and sat down.
"Ok, so the fact of the matter is, I was hunting and Bella came across me, and I didn't really know what to do. And I wasn't sure if I could trust her to just walk away, but then I discovered she knew a covin before, one that lived in town, and went to school and everything, they ate only animals, and resisted human blood all together! And, well I just wanted to know more about it, and I wasn't sure what to do." Connor rambled on, and I wondered how he knew all this about me. I only told him that I knew a vampire. How did he find out all the rest? Could he read minds too?
I realized my mouth had dropped open as Connor turned to me. He shrugged, smiling.
"Sorry about that. Victor says I should control myself more, but it's easier this way." Control himself? What is he talking about?
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. What is going on here? How did you know all that about me, I didn't tell you that stuff." I almost yelled at Connor.
"Oh, right. My bad. Did the vampires you knew have . . . special powers? Other than normal vampire ones, of course."
"Um, yeah. Yeah they did."
"Ok, well, see I have a special power too." I was right, he must read minds! But he couldn't tell me if I was right or not, because at that moment someone else walked through the door.
You could say that she was a blonde beauty but that wouldn't be enough. She was one of the most beautiful creatures I'd ever seen, right behind . . . but I still couldn't think his name. Her hair reminded me of another vampire, a pixie. Because it was short, but not like the pixie's spiky hair, this one's hair was soft and silky looking and as blonde as hair could get, and not one hair was out of place. She had light black eyes and looked to be 16. She was wearing a glittery white top and a white mini skirt.
"Hay you guys! I know you missed me!! Hope I wasn't gone too long . . ." She trailed off as she saw me, her bubbly face turned from happy to ticked off to happy again in about five seconds.
"Oh, I see you brought dinner for us, little brother." She assumed, a hunger growing in her eyes. My mouth fell open for what seemed like the hundredth time today and she slowly walked over to us.
Connor stood up, and so did I. He looked back at me, then he turned to the girl.
"Kira, I didn't. She's not." He said unable to find the right words. Kira's happy face turned back to the ticked off one as she glared at her brother.
"Kira, just calm yourself down." Gladelle tried to persuade her, but Kira ignored her.
"What?" She asked Connor.
"I found her in the woods, and I, well I didn't want to hurt her, and she use to know a vampire coven, so it isn't a big deal." He explained. I still wanted to know how he knew this stuff about me.
"Isn't a big deal?! You brought a human to our home, Connor! And we can't even eat her! I don't care if she knew the king of the moon, that was a stupid thing to do!" She yelled, but Connor stood his ground.
"You're wrong Kira." He simply stated.
"Uh!" she yelled as she flew up the stairs at vampire speed.
"Kira! Come back here and we can talk it out." Victor said.
"Excuse us." Gladelle said as they both stood up and flew up the stairs to talk to Kira.
"I'm so sorry about that, Kira can be . . ." Connor said as he turned back to me.
"Difficult?" I said, trying to finish his sentence.
"I was gonna say a real jerk-off, but that works too." He laughed lightly.
I thought of Charlie, and looked out the window, it was starting to get dark.
Connor followed my eyes.
"You should be getting back." He said. I nodded.
"Ok, well then come on." He said, grabbing my hand again as he started to walk to the door. As he reached it, he looked down at our hands, and let go as he opened the door.
"Sorry about that too." He smiled. I looked at him puzzled as I walked though the door.
"I'll tell you some other time. If there is another time." He answered as he grabbed me and put me on his back. I was sure that the last part was not meant to be heard by human ears. But I heard it anyway.
I buried my eyes in his back, and he chuckled, then ran back to my home.
Before I knew it he was pulling my death grip from his neck.
"Home sweet home. Well basically." He said, smiling, I looked around we were at the edge of the forest, right at my house.
We stood there for a minute just staring at each other, his expression somewhere between amusement, and curiosity, and mine was just plain confused. Finally he broke the silence.
"Charlie will be wondering where you are."
"Yeah." I answered not moving an inch.
"Well, maybe I'll see you around." He said hopefully. How? It's not like I'll see him at school.
"Yeah, maybe." I said.
He grinned, then almost too quickly for me to realize it, he bent down and kissed my cheek. His expression turned confused.
"That might complicate things." He whispered, but I had a feeling he wasn't talking about what had just happened. I opened my mouth to ask him, but he was gone.
I reached my hand up to touch the cool spot on my cheek where his lips had just been. I then turned and headed towards the house.
Well this had been an interesting day. More vampires?! How could I handle this?! But somehow, it didn't hurt when I was with Connor. He was like my own little sun, making everything seem bright and cheery, even when it wasn't. His family seemed nice enough. Well except for Kira. But I guess all vampire coven's need a Rosalie, but this one was a little bit worse. And she seemed sixteen, and yet she called Connor her little brother. But if there was one thing I had learned in the past year and a half, is that everything is not always what it seems. I reached the house still thinking of many questions that had not been answered. But there was one that kept resurfacing. What was Connor's special power? The suspense was going to be the death of me. I really wish Kira hadn't come in and ruined it! I walked up the few steeps to the house and opened the door.
"I'm back." I yelled weakly. I needed a nice hot bath, and about ten hours sleep.
Wow. Not a cliffy. I didn't know that I could do it.
Well what did you guys think? Did it suck like I thought it would?
I wanted to tell you guys, that I still want those questions, they're a big help, so after every chapter, just ask the question's that are on your mind, about this chapter, or a previous chapter, or even the future of the story. Thanks!!
And please tell me which chapter name you like better, cause I couldn't decide.
Oh, and review, review, review!! Please?!
