Chloe grinned as she saw Derek in Mikey's signature greenish khaki pants, mossy green flip flops with muck-covered fuzz on the straps, and grey muscle shirt. Silently, she appreciated his bulging biceps. She looked at his face, slight acne covered bymake up, lashes longer, eyebrows plucked- they were red and agitated still. She grinned as she noticed his slight haircut. He still had his hands in his pocket.
"How do I look?" Brady came out, in a hoodie and light blue jeans. His hair had been spiked to look crazy and wild, and lightened with temporary dark blonde dye. He looked gorgeous, exactly how she pictured Emit. Liz came out, hair trimmed around her shoulders, curved side bangs, and lightened to bleach blonde. She wore a white sundress and an army jacket Leslie always wore. Midge came out, auburn hair greasy and short, though somehow she was still the cutest little girl ever. Her big brown eyes were enhanced by slight make up, making them look as big as Chloe's. Chloe couldn't help but grin.
"Looks good," Simon said as he walked up to Chloe and wrapped an arm around her. Chloe leaned against him, aware of the flicker of something in Derek's green eyes. She ignored it, somewhat bothered. She felt Simon kiss her head, though she didn't feel the warmth it usually gave her. Again, she ignored it, again slightly bothered. Kari walked up.
"Time to start the first scene with Midge and Emit." They'd be doing Brady's part first, so that he could be done sooner, as his family had made an impromptu vacation in just over a week.
"Alright, people. Brady, go to your first marked spot- you've got blue, Midge has yellow, Liz has red, and Derek has gree-"
Just then, a girl bolted through the door. Everyone turned to see a panting black girl, with coppery hair, skin, and eyes, panting. She wore her hair in dreads, wore a camo tank top, and distressed brownish jeans. She looked up, and grinned.
"Derek. Theo sent-" Another boy barged in as Chloe stared in confusion. He looked a bit like Derek, only shorter and less muscular, with hazel eyes and short hair. He smiled nonchalantly and looked at Derek.
"Grandpa sent us. What're you doing? You haven't been home in nearly a week."
"Um, you can't be in here, this is-" Kari began, but Chloe waved her off. Her jaw set as he smiled at Chloe.
"Well hello there. I'm Carter Cain. This is Rae Rodgers." He walked forward and kissed Chloe's hand. Derek came close to them and shoved him away. Chloe looked at him, confused.
"Tell him I won't be home until I can pay it off." Carter let out a laugh, and Rae frowned.
"Derek, you don't actually have to repay your dad," Derek glared.
"Yes, I do. I'm not a charity. Now leave." Chloe frowned as he walked back to the stage and stood on the green number one. Carter laughed and smiled at Chloe, then leaned down and kissed her temple. She stood frozen in shock, then felt someone shove Carter away.
"Keep the fuck off my girlfriend, werewolf." She looked at Simon in shock. Kari gawked, and Chloe waved her away. Reluctantly, she left. Chloe looked at Midge- who looked pissed.
"What's wrong with werewolves?" The little girl asked, crossing her four year old arms. Carter grinned - well, wolfishly. Simon said nothing, just glared at Carter, who took a step forward. Simon instantly shot him into Rae with a knock back spell. Both of them hit the floor, and whereas Carter snickered bitterly, Rae looked outright pissed. She walked towards him, hands turning visibly red, then bursting into flame.
"Wanna play with magic, asshat?" She challenged. Chloe stepped forwardinstinctively and yanked her pendant off, then used all her controlled power to pull her Demi-Demon servant, Diriel. A sickly sweet scent filled the room as the beautiful woman stood in front of Chloe.
"Leave, child." Diriel put out her hand and sucked the flames from Rae's hands, and turned them into ice. Rae glared up at her as Chloe felt all eyes on her, or Diriel.
"Rae. Come on. That's a demon. A real one." Carter was on his feet, a protective hand on her shoulder. Jaw tense, Rae gave one single nod, then turned and followed Carter out.
"Holy shit," Brady gawked. "I had no idea you were a necro," Liz nodded slowly.
"I didn't know you were that strong- you didn't even need a ritual." Chloe looked back at her cast.
"Let's shoot this."
A/N: Does anyone know what kind of powers Brady had? Thanks for the reviews already! I tried to make this one longer, due to the suggestion, but I can't tell until I publish it.
