Vampire Chronicles: Book 1
-x-
Kagome looked at her new daughter through the rearview mirror and couldn't help but wonder about her life. Telia merely leaned against her right arm against the door armrest, looking at the passing scenery like she had never seen anything like it before. Her eyes were shining like a little child who had come home to a room full of present, or much like Kagome did when she went on that shopping spree in New York city. Though as she looked at her she couldn't help but notice she was scrawny even for a vampire, heck even more so than Alice is.
"So Telia why don't you tell me more about yourself," Kagome said trying to sound positive for the child.
Telia looked at her before she looked down at her lap. "Well I don't how much of my life was like before my mom abandoned me, heck I didn't even know she had abandoned me till another one of my mom's friends that she used to shoot up with told me. She said my mom was like most pretty teenagers, got all the looks and very susceptible to the world around her. She got pregnant with me when she was fourteen and ran away from home with her best friend Monty, and my supposed dad Kenny. Monty told me that my mom tried to do right by me the first year, but it was stressful, they were kids from a small town always running from their problems. He told me my dad had started dealing when I was three and he and mom got addicted. When I was four, my mom and dad abandoned me to go to California.
I found out they died in a car crash high on laced heroin and other narcotics only a couple of days after abandoning me from an old newspaper when I was seven. Monty tried to take care of me, he would leave me at the library from when it opened to when it closed getting his fixes then, but his addiction was almost as bad as my mom's, he died two years after my parents had abandoned me, though he died in a bad drug dealing. After that I kind laid low for a while, because living on the streets without Monty for protection was dangerous. I was thankful though, cause all of those trips to the library help me to learn how to survive and what I didn't learn there the streets and Monty had taught me," Telia said.
Kagome listened, she felt anger that any parent would do that to their child, but felt relief that she had someone no matter his background. "I'm sorry you had to go through that. I can't comprehend how you feel, but I assure you that will not happen with me around. You won't have to ever suffer," Kagome said, it was then she noticed that despite the way Telia looked she spoke much more mature.
"So Telia you said that you found out when you were seven, so how old are you exactly," Kagome asked looking at her quizzically, eyes darting to the rearview mirror, then back to the rode again. They were about fifteen more minutes from the Cullen's house.
Telia cracked a slight grin. "I'm eleven, but because of my lack of food I guess I didn't really grow much. I used to pretend to be younger though when I begged for money and food," she said sounding quite proud of her trickery.
"I used to sometimes pick pockets too, but I was never as good as Monty," she said.
Kagome nodded, not exactly proud, but she knew how life could be. She had seen her fair share of struggling in the feudal era, famine and poverty had wracked the lands back then, the earthquakes as well as the wars didn't do anything to help either. Sometimes, when Inuyasha thought she had left to own time she would come back and go ride Kirara to deliver rations and foods to the people, such as grains and salted meats that were hard to come by at that time.
"So I guess you've never ridden in a car," Kagome said.
"Well, kind of I rode the city bus with Monty a few times, but the weather was always dreary and raining harshly when we rode the bus, otherwise we walked everywhere. After Monty died riding the bus didn't seem as safe as it used to be, so I just didn't ride the bus. I once thought about going to a social services, but then one of Monty's lady friends, Roxanne said that it wasn't always ideal, that a lot of times they got abused and mistreated, in fact Roxanne told me she got raped several times and when she finally thought she had found a good family her foster dad raped her.
She ran away and came to Seattle to get away from it, but then she met her greatest "demons" she said, heroin and alcohol. After that I got kind of scared and dismissed the idea of going to the social services, plus the streets gave me much more freedom," Telia said a look passing through her eyes at the word freedom.
"Freedom is nice, I want you to know that if you ever feel uncomfortable just tell me okay," Kagome said trying to be a little more motherly.
It had been years since she had been a mother to anyone, her heart clenched not since, Shippo, Rin, Kohaku and the village children back when she was really eighteen.
Telia nodded her head shyly, "I will, but I think I'll be fine and I'm glad, this is really the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me in a long time," Telia said with a sad smile on her face.
Kagome felt like glomping her but kept her eyes on the road.
'All this emotional, motherly love it reminds me of when Shippo first joined the Inu-tachi group.'
Shippo had unfortunately passed away nearly a century before he made it to her time. Though she had the pleasure to meet his children, even though they themselves we grown up. They had children who were younger looking than her that called her Kagome-baa-chan all the time.
Kagome looked as the Cullen house came into view. She heard Telia's sharp intake of breath.
"Okay well it looks like were here. Don't be afraid Telia the Cullen's are really nice and very friendly I can assure you," Kagome said.
Telia nodded shyly it looked like she was done talking for the moment as Kagome pulled into the driveway. The Cullen's came pouring out of the house onto the doorway, most likely smelling a foreign scent as they couldn't possibly sense her with the barriers she had in place over the car..
Kagome unbuckled her seat belt and opened the car door.
"Wait for a minute Telia while I catch them up okay," she whispered to her new daughter.
Telia nodded watching curiously as her new mom closed the door walking towards the group.
She felt fear and anxiety swell in her chest hoping that the accepted her like Kagome did. She would hate to come between them, or worse for Kagome to choose them over her.

"Carlisle, before you say anything. She's different, she's doesn't want to fight and is willing to become like you," Kagome said approaching the matriarch and head of the family. Edward seemed to be trying to read Telia's mind from the car, but was coming up with a blank slate thanks to her barrier.
Carlisle nodded. "Who is she exactly," he asked Kagome's car .
"She is one of the newborns. I've already satiated her hunger and have informed her of your ways, and she wants to try it out," she said.
Carlisle seemed to be thinking about it, having a almost silent conversation with his family through his eyes. Esme nodded her approval, the other's hesitantly. "Okay then we'll take her in and—"
"Actually I kind of told her that she could live with me and that I would adopt her as my own," Kagome said laughing awkwardly.
Carlisle's eyes widened when she said that. "Are you sure, I mean you would be willing to risk it," he asked.
Kagome blinked before realizing she had failed to inform them of vital information. "Oh…. See funny thing I guess I forgot to mention is vampire venom doesn't work on me, another tried it and well it ended in a failed attempt, plus I can easily get blood until she adjust to life as a vegetarian or continue to give her blood bags if she can't adjust to that life right now," Kagome said.
The whole family seemed blown away, but Kagome was used to shocking people. "I should warn you she looks very young but is older than she appears," Kagome said, before tentatively calling Telia's name. Telia who had been listening to their conversation from the car, slowly unbuckled her seat, before opening the door to the mini-cooper. It was like the star wars music was playing in slow motion as Telia came around, flitting to her surrogate mother's side, hiding shyly behind her.
Carlisle eyed the child, she looked much younger than the one they had tried to save, but failed to thanks to the Volturi.
"Hello, my name is Carlisle Cullen and this is my wife Esme, and my children Edward, Rosalie, Emmet, Jasper and Alice," he introduced his family each one giving a slight wave or indication when named.
Telia cautiously stepped from behind Kagome.
"Hi, my name is Telia, Telia Higuirashi-Taisho," she said stumbling a little over Kagome's Japanese last name.
Carlisle smiled. "Well it is nice to meet you Telia." He looked at Kagome grimly.
"We tried to save another by the name of Bree Tanner, but the Volturi wouldn't allow it, that she had to pay for her master's doings," he said softly.
Telia's ears perked up at the name.
"Bree Tanner," she said.
"I knew Bree, though our meeting was very brief. She was very nice and even more shy than me, she used to hang with this other boy once, but I guess they're both in a better place now," she whispered the last part to herself.
The Cullen were silent, feeling slighted that they hadn't been able to save the innocent child. Kagome looked at them before realizing Bella wasn't with them.
"Where's Bella," Kagome asked her eyes narrowing, had they left out something important. Bella had talked to her briefly on the phone to say they had won, but that was it.
"She's fine," Edward said abruptly sounding kind of aggravated.
Carlisle looked at his eldest son before answering Kagome. "She went to visit Jacob. He got a couple of ribs broken saving one of his pack mate's from being hurt by one of the newborns. I have set them already, I'm going to leaving soon to bring more medicine since his body is burning off the painkillers quickly," he explained.
Kagome nodded. "Can I come with you? I actually specialize in healing and could help ease his pain. And maybe Telia could talk with the female of your family to be more informed," Kagome suggested. Carlisle agreed seeing no problem with it, while the Cullen women seem thrilled at the chance to talk with the younger girl.
Telia was hesitant at first but after some encouragement from Kagome she left inside with them to talk.
She got into her miny-cooper following after Carlisle down the road. She pushed the pedal speeding feeling excited, she was going to try to be the best mother for Telia, but when she was by herself this was her one freedom. She rolled down the widow the breeze blowing her hair back; she changed gears cruising down the road
-00-00-00-
She was okay as long as no one came in and saw her, because well…she was currently straddling Jacob's lap to keep him from thrashing about. She heard him groan in relief his hands that been digging into her waist eased as his hold on her eased, a guttural sound came from the back of his throat. His chest and body was covered in sweat, his muscles convulsing in his veins. Her eye twitched a little when she felt something poke her.
'What the fuck'
Oh who was she kidding it was obvious this would happen it was a normal physical reaction, but it was big one.
She shook her head, underage kid. 'But he looks so much older and you're not that much older' the darker, perverse part of her thought.
She pushed away that thought and concentrated keeping her healing energy flowing into Jacob's ribcage. She could see the ribs healing themselves fusing together, so she worked more on soothing the pain away. Jacob had passed out and was trying to get comfortable, thrusting upwards, which didn't help a certain priestess who was straddling him, trying to ignore his big normal bodily reaction.
'Why was this the day she had decided to were a G-string?'
Just then there was a knock on the door, before it swung open to reveal Billy Black who's eyes widened at the sight before him. His son lying very still on the bed, the lady who was supposedly a healer straddling his son's waist. Kagome's skirt was bunch up around her waist because all of Jacob's earlier struggling and her touching his bare skin.
Kagome blushed, but couldn't move her hands.
"It isn't what it looks like. He was thrashing about so this was the only way to keep him still while my powers did their job," she said quickly. She didn't need Jacob's father thinking she was molesting his son.
"It is quite alright, Ms. Higuirashi, though I am a bit envious of my son right now," Billy Black said jokingly, closing the door behind him.
He rolled himself beside his son, his face was so peaceful and at ease. "So how long do you have to…ahem cough cough stay like that," he asked blushing lightly.
"If I were healing it probably an hour considering it's not myself, but I'm just soothing because I don't want to confuse his genetic cells into thinking that I am taking over for his already fast-acting regenerative abilities, which may make his abilities might not work later on if and would be bad if I was not present. So once his injury is fully healed, which should be by tomorrow morning I guess from how fast his powers are working," Kagome said trying to explain it to his father.
"Hmm, well then I'll just lock the door and so no one else walks in on you and I'll call the Cullen's to tell them you'll be staying the night," he said giving her a wry smile.
"Thanks, oh umm and if you could tell Carlisle to take care of my daughter for the night I would really be grateful," Kagome said. Billy seemed surprised when she said daughter but nodded his head as he rolled by the door turning the lock, before exiting the room, closing the door behind him.
Kagome sighed, lying down as gently as possible on his toned stomach keeping her hands firmly on his ribs.
This was embarrassing to say the least, just think happy thoughts, think…think…sex….no no bad thoughts…Telia, yeah think about her new daughter's shy, awe filled expression when they were in the car. She felt everything slip away as she concentrated on Telia, slowly she felt her eyes beginning to droop and she was out like a light minutes later dreaming about her new daughter and her.
-00-00- (Next Morning) -00-00-
The birds were twittering and tweeting about, making a lovely melody. The sounds of the forest and some rays of light shining into the room, made for an enchanting and peaceful scene to wake up to, but not for a certain sixteen year old almost seventeen year old teenage boy; oh no quite the opposite he was in shock. He had woken up feeling better than he had in a long time, the feel of a womanly body pressed up to him made him think for a moment that Bella had stayed instead of leaving, that she had slept beside him. He tightened his arms around her waist but when his eyes fluttered open it was not Bella who was lying on top of him.
Jacob Black was then officially drawing a blank. For nearly a year since Bella Swan had come back into his life he had dreamed of the day he would wake to see her angelic face next to him, but never ever had he ever thought he would wake up shirtless with Bella's sister on top of him with her in such an erotic position straddling him, but it wouldn't even be so bad, but he could see her plump ass practically naked and his morning wood was cushioned in between her thighs so close to her sex.
He was afraid to even wake her up. Had he missed something last night? He remembered having a hot dream about deflowering Bella had he slept with her sister, but he reasoned not likely as his boxers were still on and the room didn't smell of lovemaking.
Suddenly Kagome began to squirm, as her nose crinkled. She sat up almost making Jacob groan not only at the feel of her on his dick, but he must have sweat a lot last night because the front of her shirt was slightly damp making the white material see-through giving him a full view of her top half. He couldn't help but blush when she raised her hands above her head stretching letting out a soft yawn. He thought it sounded so cute, then her eyelids snapped open her eyes connecting with Jacob's and froze.
Kagome flushed when she felt his morning wood twitch under her, while Jacob looked away rightly embarrassed.
He laughed awkwardly. "Umm morning, uh would you mind getting off of my….um," he said trailing off. Kagome's eyes widened a fraction as she was scrambling off of him. Then she felt a slight breeze come in from the cracked window freezing her ass. She blushed pulling down her skirt and shirt looking anywhere but at him. Jacob quickly moved picking up a pair of jeans running into the adjoining bathroom slamming the door shut. Kagome let out an exasperated sigh plopped down on the warm bed.
She put her head in the palm of her hands and wiped her face. She only looked up when Jacob came out a few minutes later with the jeans on. "Yeah sorry about that I shouldn't have fallen asleep," she said apologizing.
"No it's okay, umm but yeah how did we…..well you know end up….." he just stopped talking not knowing what to say as he sat down beside her.
Kagome was quickly shaking her head. "We didn't do anything," she practically shouted. "I'm a healer by nature and your medicine would have kept wearing off and I knew how you pack felt about the Cullen's being on your land, so I used my powers to soothe your wounds while they healed, unfortunately it requires me to have contact with the person, but you kept thrashing about so I had to straddle you just to keep still," Kagome said over the initial embarrassment as she rose from the bed.
"You seem to be in top shape, so we should probably go see your father since he saw me straddling you last night wouldn't want him to think that we were doing anything risqué," she said she stretched once more, before walking towards the door. She turned back to Jacob who was still sitting on the bed, one brow rose. "Are you coming," Kagome asked.
Jacob nodded dumbly getting up.
When they came into the kitchen Billy Black was at the table reading a newspaper. He set it down when they entered. "Good morning," he said greeting them jovially mirth dancing in his eyes at his son's blushing face while Kagome smiled bidding him a good morning.
"Morning Mr. Black, I should probably get going have to get back to my daughter best not to keep her waiting," Kagome said. "And thank you again for locking the door," she said.
Billy smiled, "No problem, but the guys are really curious about you son and are waiting for you at Sam and Emily's," he said. Jacob nodded saying he would stop by later, but by that time Kagome was already out the door climbing into her mini cooper. She sighed only now taking notice of her shirt, so that was why he was all weird.
She shook her head as she sped off towards the Cullen's house.
-00-00-00-00-
Kagome and Bella were outside of the Cullen house talking about what had happened. "You kissed him, but you still love Edward, and you say I have problems," Kagome reiterating the gist of what her sister had just told her.
"I know, but Edward doesn't seem that affected," Bella said naively.
'Of course he's affected.'
Sometimes Kagome worried about her sister, but she wasn't really any better. "Look Bella it's all good. I'm going to be trying to spend more time with Telia, maybe take her abroad for a little while. But if you decided to tie the knot you have my number," Kagome said.
Telia was already waiting in the car, "Oh and Bella please think clearly about what you said because I can assure you if I was Edward and I loved you as much as he did, I would at least be jealous, but I think for him it's eating at him, especially with how Edward feels about you being with someone normal, or at least human," she said walking off leaving her sister to think about what she had said.
She got in the car looking at her daughter. "Seat belt," she said.
Telia smiled putting on the seat belt, Kagome buckled up before pulling out the driveway heading towards her home.
"Maybe we should go to a foreign country, like Transylvania just to have a laugh what do you think," Kagome asked Telia who blinked twice.
Kagome almost face palmed.
"Transylvania is supposedly the origin in which vampires came from, but who knows. It became a really popular place to visit after a man name Bram Stoker's book about a Count Dracula who was a vampire and his three brides," Kagome said, Telia nodded.
"I think it would be nice to go to this Transylvania," Telia said shyly.
"Okay then, I'll get my connections to get everything prepared, you'll need a passport and adoption papers need to be drawn up, but don't worry I'll take care of it all," Kagome said with a bright smile on her face.
TBC. Review tell me what you think!
