Don't worry, i'm sure this won't stay a horror story, I'm beggining to freak myself out! Even I don't know what the pregnant persephone was doing there, it will mean something though. Jeuneun's told me to tell Kitsune-chan that he loves his fan-girls! (However that might have changed this morning... disney movies have a strange effect on people if you know what I mean!)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jeuneun fought the urge to scream. With a spasmodic movement in both of his arms he managed to shake the things off and they fell to the floor. The bedclothes were covered in blood.

Perle and Imi made two little shreiks of unapproval at their rude awakening as they immerged from the under bed, back to their usual self and two more louder shreiks as they saw the blood. There were no marks on either of the girls heads, so where had the blood come from?

It seemed that the shreiks had alerted the Merovingian and Persephone, who (Jeuneun was relieved to note) was as beautiful and un-pregnant as ever. Persephone screamed at the sight of the blood and rushed over to her daughters stroking their hair and faces and asking them if they were ok. "What ze 'ell 'appened 'ere?" Asked the Merovingian looking from the blood to his son. Jeuneun shrugged.

"I asked you a question!" the older man snarled

"And I said I didn't know!" snapped Jeuneun "I had a nightmare and it was just there when I woke up!" The Merovingian looked at him coldly, he obviously didn't beleive him. Since Neo had beat him he didn't beleive in Jeuneun at all. He went over to tend to the girls.

Jeuneun growled. He never got that much attention when he was that age. Wait was he ever even that age? He went from four to fourteen to twenty eight. Nope, he was never 7. He hated having his childhood taken away from him all for the sake of a fight.

It looked like the storm had given up for now, but threatening thunder clouds still loomed outside the window. He looked at the clock. It was only six o'clock. Bu the couldn't get back to sleep even if he tried. "I'd like to take a shower if you don't mind." he requested. The two little girls were lead outside as he took off his shirt. He needed to get the blood off of him and out of his clothes too. He wasn't squeamish, as he was a demon, but that blood didn't register as human or animal blood, it was something else and that made him uncomfortable to say the least.

"What 'appened in zere?" The merovingian asked the lttle girls softly "Was your brother telling ze truth?" Imi nodded slowly. "What 'appened?"

"We got scared of the storm." Started Imi

"You got scared of the storm, not me!" frowned Perle.

"So we went into Jeuneun's room and he was having a nightmare. He was tossing and turning and muttering things." "like what?" prompted their father.

Perle shrugged "Just jibberish, things like 'the faces' and 'oh no, not you two.' Do you think he was dreaming about us? He says that to us alot!"

At that point Imi became quite distraugt "Why would Jeuneun be having a bad dream about us?" she squeaked. The Merovingian put an arm around her "I'm sure that was not the case. Carry on Perle."

"So he was having a nightmare, and we went to sit on the edge of the bed. I decided to wake him up so I touched his face. He moved his arm and I jumped out of the way but Imi was still in the way and she got scratched." "It was only a little scratch," said Imi shyly, defending her brother "And he said sorry." "Yes, he said sorry and then we fell asleep." "When he woke up he must have seen the blood because he threw us off the bed and then we woke up and screamed and then..." she trailed off "And then you know the rest because you were there."

"But where did the blood come from?" asked The Merovingian. Both twins shrugged simultaniously.

Two stretched as he pulled on his trousers. He looked at the clock that hung on the wall near the beds. It was six am. His gaze dropped to the people that were sleeping underneath it; the sisters, Salix and Cypress. They had been living in the chateau for months now and had their own room but the storm had scared Cypress (and probably Salix too, but she wouldn't admit it) and they had both come down to the twins room. He personally couldn't see why. He had been informed by The Merovingian's young daughters many a time that their's was the 'creepiest' room in the whole building and they were probably right.

Cypress' eyes flickered open "Where are you going?" she whispered innocently "Just out to see what that scream was Cy." he muttered.

They had all heard it but the twins were the only ones who took any notice of it and Salix and Cypress had gone back to sleep. "Be quiet or you'll wake your sister up." "I bet she'd like to see you without your shirt." "What?" he said in a louder voice, taken by suprise "Shhhh! She likes you. I mean like likes you. She told me. She's liked you ever since you helped us. Its like one of the stories in the magazines."

Salix moaned and turned over in her sleep.

Two shook his head and decided that Cypress was making it up. Salix liked every man within a hundred mile radius. She even had her eye on Jeuneun when she saw he was 28.

It was just a passing thing even if it was true, which was very unlikely. Cypress was NOT a normal child.

P.S. Perle means 'Gem' in french and 'imi' is sort of 'ini' so if you put them together you get 'gemini' which is the twins. I just thought 'imi' sounded cuter. I DO have reasons for the things I put in my stories. Lets just hope this won't go the way of some of the other sequels I've read *Shudder*, you have to keep reading!

P.P.S. There may be some Jeuneun/(insert female character here) later on. Does anyone find it weird that he's 28 and has never even looked at someone of the opposite sex? Calm down fangirls, he is straight!

P.P.P.S. I might have to take a brake for a couple o' days. I'm going to a sleepover at my friends house (See, I do have a social life!)
