Rafe and Alison have been working for weeks trying to catch Stephen in the
act (well, Caleb, but they still don't have proof that's who he actually
is). They set up a camera in Stephen's loft, which wasn't hard to do since
Alison's mom, Elizabeth, was married to him now. Alison's nightmare about
turning into a vampire herself had made her really think about who Stephen
really was, and if he was hiding Alison's half brother or sister. And just
who was the mistress of her father that had this child anyway? There were
so many questions, but very little was being answered.
"Man am I ever exhausted!" Alison sighed heavily as she came into the bedroom where they set the TV monitors up. It took her almost an hour to clean around the house, and it was now 10:30.
"Yeah I know what you mean," Rafe said sleepily as he stared at the monitor. A huge blizzard was going through the town of Port Charles, and no one was supposed to go out except in extreme emergencies. Rafe and Alison decided to take turns watching the monitor. Rafe would stay awake during the night and Alison would stay awake during the day. They weren't making much progress, not even seeing Stephen reveal any fangs.
"Rafe, why don't we both just go to bed? I'm tired, and I know you're tired. Maybe in the morning we can come up with a better plan than watching the 24 hour Stephen show."
Rafe laughed. His wife had a point. "Ok, angel. Let's hit the sack." They both quickly got into their pajamas, kissed each other good night, and went straight to sleep. Meanwhile, down by the Port Charles docks..
A young woman fished a cigarette out of her purse and shook her head. There was no use in trying to quit. Those damn nicotine patches didn't work, and neither did the lame excuse for nicotine gum. It was hopeless. She would be a smoker until the day she died. After smoking she took out her compact mirror and looked at her face. With her wavy light brown hair and sparkling blue eyes, she knew she made all the men turn their heads. As she looked down to her neck, she noticed that the scar was still there.
"Damnit!" she cursed as she angrily put away her mirror. "I thought that mark would be gone by now." She thought back to the day she had gotten that mark..
"Raina, darling, don't you look beautiful tonight."
She looked up from the bench she was sitting on. "Excuse me, do I know you?"
"No but I know you. You're Raina Barrington. Or wait, is it Kovich? You people have me so confused."
"Well not that it's any of your business, but technically it's Barrington. I don't really know my father that well though. He died last year. So how do you know me anyway?"
Caleb laughed. "That's easy. My name's Caleb Morley. Or you can call me Stephen Clay, whatever floats your boat really."
Raina gave him a weird look. "Ok, Caleb...Stephen, whoever you are, what do you want?"
He stepped a little closer to her. "You have a half sister. And a half brother. Rafe and Alison Kovich. They're married as a matter of fact."
Raina's eyes lit up. "Oh my gosh, a brother and sister! I've been dreaming about having a sibling since I was a little girl. So where are they?"
"Well you see, I don't want you to find them. Because then they would know who I really am. And we can't have that, now can we?" He put his hands on her shoulders and looked straight into her eyes. "If you so much as call them, I will be obligated to kill you."
Raina, not wanting to hear another word out of this weird man's mouth, got up and started running. Caleb used his powers to appear in front of her, and knocked her over.
"Just to make sure that you don't tell them..." He sunk his fangs deeply into her neck. She let out a cry as she all too suddenly realized exactly what this man was.
Snapping back to the present, Raina started going back to her car. She was forever stuck with the evil curse that Caleb Morley had given her. She knew that she could easily get out of this if she just found Rafe and Alison Kovich. Rafe was supposedly a vampire slayer and could probably somehow defeat Caleb. But she remembered Caleb's cold and harsh words, warning that if she made any contact with them that he would kill her. There was no turning back now.
Back at their house, Rafe and Alison had finally woken up after about 12 hours of sleep. Ed was in the living room playing video games and knew nothing about his parents plans, obviously since he was too young. Rafe suddenly jumped up out of the bed and gave a slight laugh. "I can't believe we didn't think about this all along! Your mother is married to Stephen."
"Yes, so?"
"So..we can easily just ask her if she knows of any suspicious activity."
"But Rafe, what if Stephen threatened her or something if she tells what she knows?"
"Don't worry. I'm a slayer, remember? I can tell a vampire when I see one. And besides, with you by my side I can do anything. And I promise that I won't hurt your mother." Alison smiled and put her arms around his neck. "I love you more and more everyday."
"Aw angel, you're making me blush," Rafe joked. He nibbled on her ear lobe and whispered "I love you, forever."
"Man am I ever exhausted!" Alison sighed heavily as she came into the bedroom where they set the TV monitors up. It took her almost an hour to clean around the house, and it was now 10:30.
