Week of October 31- Secret Diary #3
Almost a year has passed since I gave Goliath and his clan the gift to become humans during the day, and I, Elisa, and Morgan have been teaching them the basics of living a human life. I also warned them that by dusk, they will return back to their Gargoyle selves.
Anyway, here's what the clan has been doing ever since I gave them the gift of being human during the day.
Well, Hudson had joined a Anonymous Soldier Club which has been quite interesting for him. Broadway has been going to cooking classes to have more experience at his chef skills when I am not around.
Brooklyn had joined a motorcycle club, and found a job within a mechanic shop, and to kick, he got a bad-ass wicked cool motorcycle! And for Lexington, he has applied for online high school, aiming for tech classes, and much to our amazement, he even skipped a couple of grades, and he has been deciding if he could go to college or not.
And as for Goliath...he became a partner with me in Private Investigating, and on the side, he has been a freelance parkour artist on the streets occasionally. And for Blaze, he has been taking art classes, and to Elisa's surprised awe on her birthday, Blaze gave her a self-portrait of her that he painted personally.
I got to admit that he's really good, and Hudson complimented that Blaze has reached the level of a great artist by the name of Leonardo De Vinci. And to make it more exciting, all the money we have saved up, and stored up in a series of jars, we used it to open up a bakery!
After everyone insisted that I open one as my baking skills are amazing, we named it Castle Cupcakes Bakery in honor of Castle Wyvern, and also next door, Broadway has his own cafe called Lion's Roar Cafe.
We open the bakery and the cafe at the same time which Goliath and his clan turn humans at dawn, and then we close it at dusk. My bakery has become a huge hit much to my joy, and also a lot of the officers, even Maria Chavez, they all come to the bakery to enjoy a donut and coffee. We also make cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and ice cream.
And for the cafe, it has become a huge hit as well, much to Broadway's delight, and many customers always come back again and again. And at the Bakery and Cafe, we have music playing, like Circle of Life, Can you feel the love tonight and lots of classic Disney songs, along with a few others that everybody doesn't mind at all, heck, the kids love it!
Also, Blaze was still with us, and it made everyone happy, especially Goliath and Elisa. He was spending lots of time with Goliath, and also with Elisa, but sadly, he and Elisa still haven't become a couple! It bothers me a bit, and Elisa told me that Blaze called her beautiful when she was turned into a Gargoyle which it might be due to his past.
And one more thing, it's actually funny as you see, a lot of the girls have mistaken Blaze as Michael Fassbender. As a Gargoyle, he does look kind of like him, but as a human,he definitely looks like him, and he even sounds like him! Due to this, Elisa has become protective of Blaze when he is a human.
Also, to both my annoyance and the clan's, Xanatos has visited the bakery a few times, and we found out that he was getting married to Fox, a member of the pack who tried to hurt Goliath and the others.
Anyways, both I and Elisa have been assigned a case, which a market had been attacked by a creature, and we arrived at the market to find that it was completely trashed. We then heard some growling, and we checked the hallway to see the creature eating something.
"Police! Freeze!", Elisa shouted, holding her gun at the creature. The creature then ran the other way, and Elisa and I tried to intercept it, but it came from behind Elisa. I then used my powers to make it go flying backwards, and I then helped Elisa back up as we then saw the police arrive, but the creature was gone.
"I got a good look at it. It was wearing the Eye of Odin.", Elisa said, looking shocked and sounding nervous. "Now this is bad! Where could it have gotten the Eye of Odin?", I asked in confusion.
It was now Halloween, and I and Elisa were heading to the clock tower as Morgan was already there. I was using my magic to fly us there as we then made it to the tower, and we went inside.
"Sally.", Goliath said with a smile, but then he stopped, and I knew it was dusk. He and the others then started to transform back into their Gargoyle selves. I then went over to hug Goliath.
"I can't help but say that I'm still not used to this.", Goliath said with a chuckle. "You will get used to it soon, Goliath. Everyone, did you enjoy your day at the bakery?", I asked curiously.
"You did great with the cake! Rodney said that he wanted to thank you for doing the cake for his little girl's birthday.", Brookyln grinned happily. "Indeed. The chocolate chip cookies I brought to the meeting today, they all loved them, and complimented your baking skills wonderfully.", Hudson smiled softly.
"I made a new friend there, and he seems good at playing darts over at the cafe as well.", Lexington chuckled lightly. "Everyone loved your Pumpkin Cookies, and couldn't help buying a bunch off my little stand at the cafe. And to mention as well, they all complimented my Nacho Specialty!", Broadway grinned with a laugh.
"You have done so good, my love. I think I may have gotten a few customers from my display of skills for you.", Goliath smiled as he kissed me upon the temple. "I'm glad." I said with a grin, and I then saw that Bronx was playing with Morgan.
During the day when he turns into a doberman, his color changes to black and brown similar to a doberman, and it makes sense because people would be asking why Bronx's hair is blue, not black and brown.
"Halloween! Tonight is the night.", Lexington said with a grin. "I can hardly wait. We can walk around the streets, and nobody will know who we are.", Brooklyn said with a chuckle.
"Better yet, no one will know what we are.", Broadway said with a smirk. "You got that right.", Morgan said with a laugh.
"Anyways, I and Elisa have something to tell you.", I said with a frown, and we then told them about the creature that tried to attack us. "And you've no idea what this beast might be?", Goliath asked curiously with a bit of confusion.
"Besides mean and hungry? No.", Elisa said, shaking her head lightly. "Even Draven couldn't sense something about that creature.", I said with a soft sigh.
"Oh, you could have been hurt. I should have been with you.", Blaze said to Elisa, grabbing her hand with a frown, and a worried glint in his eyes. "Anyway, we have bought some costumes for you guys.", I said with a smile, trying to change the subject.
1 hour later, we were all walking down the street, and everyone thought Goliath and his clan were wearing costumes. Anyway, I was dressed up as Cinderella, Elisa was dressed as Belle, and she was holding onto Blaze's arm. My sister was dressed as Elizabeth Turner from Pirates of the Caribbean, and Brooklyn was dressed up as Jack Sparrow.
"It should be Halloween more often.", Blaze said with a smile at Elisa, looking thoughtful. "And we wouldn't have no worries with nobody screaming or anything.", Elisa grinned with a wink. We were walking to see some couples dancing.
"May I have this dance?", Goliath asked politely and lovingly as he held out his hand. "You may.", I said with a giggle as we both bowed, and we then started dancing. I saw that Elisa was dancing with Blaze, and then Can you feel the love tonight was playing.
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things
I sighed deeply as I saw that Elisa was staring at Blaze with a loving look in her eyes, but he still doesn't realize that Elisa has feelings for him.
"Sally, what's wrong?", Goliath asked, looking at me with concern, and I looked at him with a weak smile and a shrug.
So many things to tell her
But how to make her see
The truth about my past? Impossible!
She'd turn away from me
"I just can't believe Blaze still doesn't realize that Elisa has feelings for him, and that it's almost been a year since he has been staying with us.", I said with a barely audible growl.
He's holding back, he's hiding
But what, I can't decide
Why won't he be the king I know he is
The king I see inside?
"He was only 13 when he lost his foster family. Usually in a clan when a Gargoyle turns 15, they notice females then, but without a clan or a family, he doesn't know the full details. You cannot blame him for being emotion-controlled as he must have realized that emotions gets him into trouble, hence never learning that love is a good thing as well.", Goliath assured me softly, whispering closely.
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things
"I just don't want Blaze to hurt Elisa.", I said with a sigh.
Can you feel the love tonight?
You needn't look too far
Stealing through the night's uncertainties
Love is where they are
"Little Shadow is a adult, so grown up, but he may not realize that he's hurting Elisa somewhat, but as you and I know, Elisa can be stubborn, so she would have to wait for Blaze to realize his feelings for her.", rumbled Goliath warmly with a smile. I sighed, nodding in understanding.
After our dance, we were walking through the alleyway, along with Blaze and Elisa, and we then came across Xanatos who asked us to help him save Fox. Of course Elisa didn't want to believe him, and neither did Blaze, but both Goliath and I knew that he was telling the truth, so we then followed him to where Fox might be.
We soon found Fox, and Goliath then tried to grab her, but Fox threw him to the side. I saw Elisa grab her gun, but Xanatos then destroyed it. "Sorry, Elisa.", I said, grasping her shoulder briefly in apology, and we then followed Fox to the roof.
Goliath and Blaze were trying to grab a hold of her, but she was too strong, and I then used my telekinesis to keep Fox still. "Xanatos, go get the Eye of Odin off her!", I shouted hastily.
Xanatos then ran over, and he grabbed the Eye of Odin. I saw Goliath, Blaze, and Xanatos getting shocked before it sent them flying, and I went over to Goliath's side while Elisa went to Blaze.
"Goliath, you okay?", I asked in worry as I helped Goliath get back up. "I'm fine.", Goliath said, rubbing his head lightly with a reassuring smile.
"What about you, Blaze?", Elisa asked in concern as she helped Blaze get back up as well. "I'm still in one piece.", Blaze said with a smile.
I then turned around to see that Xanatos has the Eye of Odin in his hand, and we saw Fox returning to normal, but she was naked! "I'll take of that.", I hastily used a spell to make clothes appear on Fox, and then a helicopter arrived, seeing that it was Owen who was driving it.
"The Eye. Give it to me.", Goliath said, reaching out his hand with a look. Xanatos then gave the eye to Goliath, and he was carrying Fox in his arms as they left in the helicopter.
"Well, let's go back home." Morgan said with a exhausted groan, and we all then went back to the clock tower. I then told Goliath and the others that they needed to take a long rest as today was their day off.
"You mean it, Sally?", Brooklyn asked with a grin. "Of course, you all deserve a long rest.", I said with a smile and a firm nod.
"I can't wait to take a nap.", Hudson said with a tired smile as he headed over to his favorite chair. Goliath gently wrapped his wings around me, hugging me around the waist. "I sure enjoyed dancing with you tonight, Sally.", Goliath said to me with a soft purr.
"Me too.", I said softly, and I turned around, bouncing slightly to kiss Goliath on the lips, and I shivered lightly at his muffled rumbled growl as our kiss became passionate. It was the best Halloween ever in my life!
