Moving Mountains

Hey guys, I know I'm running behind in updates but life is hectic at the moment. As soon as it calms down we'll be back to updates every day. It rained all day today so I was kinda pissed cause I was supposed to go swimming and wouldn't you know it, it freaking rained.

Right um Chase got shot in the last chapter and Andie told a story about her past because Alex asked her to. I think that basically sums up the chapter. This one, at the moment I'm still trying to figure out who shot Chase so Andie won't know for a little while lol, yea I really need to working on my planning skills but sometimes I get excited and write stuff that I never planned out. That's what happened last chapter.

A/N-This one is named after Usher's song "Moving Mountains" cause it's a good song.

Disclaimer-Don't own Step Up 2, but I do own the idea of turning their characters into vampires.

Andie was so shocked at the fact that Chase had just been shot with a dart she did not react for nearly a half a heart beat. She didn't know who had done it, but Andie was certain that the person would be dead soon.

"Leave it!" Andie nearly shouted when she saw Alex moving towards his brother to take the dart from his neck.

"But—."

Andie shook her head,

"My friend Miles needs to be able to take the dart so he can test it and see what exactly is in it."

Taking out her phone, Andie pressed the number one button and Moose's cell phone numbered was dialed.

"Yes sister?" He asked.

"Moose come and get Alex and take him to Miles's place." Andie said quickly. "Chase and I will already be there."

"Wait, what?" Moose asked sounded confused.

"Robert!" Andie exclaimed in frustration. "Come get Alex, take him to Miles's house. Chase and I will be there when you get there."

"Why exactly will you be at Miles's?" Moose asked.

Andie could hear him moving he was on his way.

"Chase got shot with a dart." Andie hung up before he could reply and picked Chase up with ease, her face turning to show its vampire self.

"Whoa." Alex muttered stepping back. "He's gotta be over two hundred and fifty pounds and you're lifting him as if he's nothing."

Andie gave him a small smile and shrugged.

"Vampire strength. I'll see you soon."

Alex nodded and blinked, but when he opened his eyes again Andie and Chase were gone. Andie wasn't moving nearly as fast as she could have but it would have to do. If she didn't hurry, Chase could die. After all she didn't know exactly what he'd been hit with.

When Andie arrived at a large white house she clambered up onto the porch and kicked the door twice. She waited a few heartbeats before kicking it again.

"Alright, hold your fucking horses!"

"Miles this is an emergency!" Andie yelled.

The door flew open to reveal Tyler and Andie's friend Miles. He had one a pair of goggles that made his eyes seemed four times bigger and Andie couldn't help but snicker at his strong resemblance to a bug.

"Who's this?" He asked looking Chase over. "And what have you done to him?"

Pushing past Miles, Andie scowled out at him.

"I haven't done anything to him." She said. "His name is Chase and he was shot with a dart."

Andie knew where she was going, so she kicked open the door to the basement and took the stairs two at a time. When she reached the bottom she looked around at Miles's lab, it had not changed one bit since she'd last been there. About a month ago.

"Lay him—."

"–on a stretcher, yea I know." Andie replied lying Chase down on the closest stretcher as gently as possible. She brushed his hair away from his eyes and cupped his face.

"He's special to you." Miles commented as he rummaged around in his many drawers.

"Yes he is." Andie replied. "So could you hurry?"

Smirking, Miles returned to the stretcher and opened one of Chase's eyes. He shined a flashlight in his eye, moving it back and forth. Andie noticed that his pupil did not follow, that was bad.

"Andie there's a syringe in the top drawer of the cabinet directly behind me." Miles said as he took a pair of tweezers from the tray besides him. "It's got a blue cap, bring it to me."

Andie nodded and moved around the stretcher to walk over to the cabinet Miles had told her to. She pulled open the drawer and saw a whole bunch of different syringes. She searched through the drawer until she found the one with a blue cap and pulled it out. She closed the drawer and handed the syringe to Miles over his shoulder.

When she returned to her original spot, the dart was lying on paper towel on the tray next to the tweezers and the flashlight. Miles took the cap off of the needle and plunged it into Chase's arm. After pouring all the liquid into Chase, Miles pulled out the needle and picked the flashlight back up. He opened Chase's eye and shone the light back and forth, his pupil followed.

"He's gonna be fine." Miles declared straightening.

Andie let out the breath she'd been holding. Completely out of habit, she didn't even notice that she'd stopped breathing.

"Thank you so much Miles." She said sighing.

"You're one of the only vamps I know that still breathes." Miles commented.

Andie shrugged, her hands cupping Chase's face gently.

"Habit." She replied. "When can he leave?"

Miles looked down at him,

"I need to talk to him first." He said. "So after he wakes up and I get to question him."

Andie frowned,

"What about?" She asked.

Miles pointed to the dart,

"That was some of the most poisonous snake venom in the world and it was mixed with vampire blood."

Andie took in a sharp breath.

"That's bad." She muttered.

Miles nodded.

"It's very bad." Miles put a finger to Chase's neck. "His pulse is racing and I'm not sure exactly if that one syringe will be enough to get rid of all the poison."

"But you can't get rid of the vampire blood." Andie said. "It will have already mixed with the human blood."

Miles nodded.

"He'll need to be tested and everything." He frowned. "He won't be a vampire but I'm positive he won't be purely human either."

Andie cursed under her breath. Miles watched her bury her face in her folded arms on the edge of the stretcher. He looked from Chase to Andie and then back again.

"Andrea," He said slowly. "What exactly is he to you?"

Andie glanced up at Miles, making a face at the use of her full name.

"He's my boyfriend." She said quietly.

"Boyfriend?" She could hear the surprise in Miles's voice. "You haven't had significant other since, two years before I was turned."

"Yes I know, that was what?" Andie paused. "1929?"

Miles nodded.

Before Andie could say anything else, there was a knocking—well kicking sound at the door.

"That's Moose and Chase's little brother Alex." Andie said.

"Another human?" Miles asked rasing an eyebrow. "Is it safe?"

Andie nodded,

"I'll explain about him later." She said. "Go get the door before either one of them breaks it down."

Miles muttered something that Andie didn't catch but it wasn't like she'd have heard him if he'd said it louder. Andie's only concern was Chase and whether or not he was seriously hurt. She rested her cheek on his forehead and felt how hot he was.

"This is so bad." She muttered.

Andie heard Alex coming and she stepped back from Chase half a step, when he came bursting into the lab he nearly ran into the stretcher and Andie laughed slightly.

"How is he?" He panted.

"He's gotta wake up first." Andie replied softly. "Miles has to question him and determine whether or not he's still purely human."

"Purely human?" Alex asked frowning.

"The dart, that was shot into his neck was full of the poisonous snake venom there is and it was mixed with vampire blood." Andie explained. "Miles gave him a shot to get rid of the snake venom but the vampire blood will have already seeped into his human blood."

"So is Chase a vampire?" Alex asked.

Shaking her head, Andie opened his mouth.

"See?" She asked smiling slightly. "No fangs."

Alex looked disappointed.

"Then what will be different about him?"He asked.

"I'm not exactly sure." Andie replied.

"But he'll be okay?" Alex asked.

Andie nodded.

"Yes, he'll be okay."

Alex gave her a tired smile before his eyes lit up.

"Andie it was cool getting here!" He exclaimed.

Laughing, Andie raised an eyebrow.

"Oh really?" She asked. "How did you get here?"

"Moose put me on his back and he ran." Alex replied. "It was so cool, I could barely see anything because it was moving so fast but it was still cool."

Andie smiled, leave it to Moose.

"Where is my dear brother?" She asked Alex.

"Upstairs talking to man who opened the door." Alex replied. "Is he Miles?"

Andie nodded,

"When was he turned?" Alex asked.

"1929." Andie replied. "And it was an accident."

Alex tilted his head to left, his eyebrows knitting together.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"It wasn't supposed to happen, Nora lost control and nearly killed him." Andie explained. "She was only a hundred years old, she didn't know how to turn anyone. Not to mention she hadn't meant to turn Miles in the first place."

"So how come he lived?" Alex asked.

"I helped." Andie replied. "Nora and I were in Chicago, performing up on stage together just to see how it felt. Miles watched our show one night and took a liking to Nora. They went up to her room and about an hour later, Nora was screaming for me to come and help."

Andie took a breath,

'I've really got to work on that.' She thought to herself.

"Miles was bleeding to death on the bed, Nora and I both had to give him blood." Andie shrugged. "So technically he has two sires."

"What's a sire?" Alex asked.

"A sire is the vampire that turns another vampire." Andie explained. "A sire will always know where every one of its children is and the children always have to do whatever the sire tells them to. People who are turned too young often make horrible sires because they don't take the time to teach their children in their first year."

"Teach them the ways of the vampires right?" Alex asked.

Andie nodded.

"Missy just finished her year with me about a month ago." She continued.

"So what about Miles?" Alex asked. "Which one of you taught him the ways of a vampire?"

Andie smiled slightly.

"We split it, Nora and I." She replied. "Nora was still young and didn't fully know what she was doing so she took him for a half then I took him for the other half."

Alex nodded.

"Have I answered all your questions little one?" Andie asked ruffling his hair.

"Hey," Alex protested. "I'm not little."

Andie laughed.

"I can see over the top of your head." She replied. "Ergo you're little."

Alex opened his mouth to say something when footsteps could be heard on the stairs. Miles appeared at the bottom of the steps and he motioned for Andie and Alex to follow him.

"Yo little man." He said. "Come tell me about this story that Andrea's been helping you write."

Alex's face lit up and he turned on his heels to follow Miles up the stairs.

"You too Andrea." Miles called back down to her. "Chase ain't going anywhere."

Sighing in both defeat and annoyance, Andie followed the boys up the stairs. They led her into Miles's living room where Moose was sitting on the couch waiting for them. He gave his twin a small smile and Andie returned it. She plopped down next to him and Moose pulled her into his side.

"Now." Miles said once they were all settled. "Tell me about your story."

Andie thought Alex was going to explode from excitement. He told Miles everything, from the beginning of his dreams to the conversation he and Andie had just had down in the lab.

"Is it alright if I put you in my story?" Alex asked Miles.

"Why would you want to put me in it?" Miles asked curiously.

"Because Andrea said every vampire or new person I met should go into it." Alex answered. "She said everyone will play a key part in the final chapter."

"Really?" Andie asked sitting up. "When did she tell you this?"

Alex frowned in thought.

"Two nights ago." He said after a moment. "I fell asleep on my notebook and we talked."

"Just about putting people in the story?" Miles asked.

Alex shook his head.

"No, she told me that every big detail that happens must be put into the story." He looked at them all. "I think this counts don't you?"

They all nodded.

"So has she ever told you how this stories going to end?" Moose asked.

"No, but I think she knows." Alex replied.

"What makes you say that?" Andie asked.

"Because," Alex said slowly. "She told me on the night that we talked I needed to be extra careful in two days. That would mean she wanted me to be careful today."

"She knew about the dart?" Miles asked.

Alex shrugged,

"She's mysterious Andrea is." He commented quietly. "It's like she wants to tell me what's going to happen but something is stopping her from doing it."

"Did she tell you anything else?" Moose asked. "Like why she hasn't informed the real Andrea about your meetings."

Alex shook his head.

"She said it's all part of the plan." He looked at Andie. "She said her real self will figure it out soon enough."

Andie frowned.

"What is there to figure out?" She muttered to herself.

"Hey Andie." Miles said suddenly, his eyes glazing over slightly.

"Yea Miles?" She asked.

"What do you know about time travel?" He asked.

Andie's frown deepened.

"What are you on about?" She asked.

But before Miles could answer, there was a scream from the lab.

When Chase woke up, he kept his eyes closed.

He hurt everywhere, in places that he didn't even know could hurt, hurt. His eyes were the worst though, it was like a needle had been stuck in both of them. Dead center right in the middle of his pupil. Hence the reason he kept his eyes closed. But Chase didn't think he'd been stabbed in the eyes.

Had he?

No, he'd gotten stabbed in the neck. By something thin and tiny. Bringing his hands up to his neck, Chase felt around but there was nothing there. Except a quite large bruise that was tender to the touch. It was then Chase realized that he was lying on something hard and cold.

Where was he?

Gripping his pant legs and preparing for pain, Chase slowly opened his eyes. Or at least he thought he did. His lids were parted yet Chase couldn't see anything.

There was nothing but inky blackness that moved across his eyes like squids. Every time Chase thought the inkyness was going to fade away more seemed to fill the old places.

Frowning the blond haired boy rubbed his eyes.

Why was couldn't he see and why was the blackness moving? It was almost like black worms had taken over his sight. Chase had been rubbing at his eyes for a good ten minutes when a voice popped into his head.

'You idiot.' It said, realization sounding as if it had just dawned on the voice. 'You're blind.'

It was then, that Chase let out a horrible loud scream.

Another cliffhanger. Damn it that's my bad ya'll. I so didn't mean for that to happen but all of this I'm making up off the top of my head lol. I've got the basic outline just not what happens inbetween and the details lol.

A/N-This is probably my favorite chapter so far.

Reviews keep my fingers typing chapters!
