special ...special-ed:) BTW I don't own anything! (Sadly)
Rose went home that night with Brittany's book. She said she would bring it back the next time she came. This would be sooner than she thought...
Rose was sitting at home skimming through the pages stopping every now and then wondering what the Latin words said. She'd have to get her friend to translate it for her. The phone rang suddenly startling Rose into letting the book fall. She picked it up and answered the phone. "Rafkin residence. Rose Rafkin speaking." A hearty laugh echoed from the other side. "Rose. Do you always answer the phone like that? If you do you might lose your Death Watcher to a heart attack!" Rose blushed. It was pretty funny but that was how her father used to answer the phone. She just picked it up from him. Brittany calmed down a bit and started talking again." Rose I've got big news. I found some people that can help us. How fast can you get down here?" Rose blinked. "Twenty minutes tops." She said already putting her shoes on. "Nothing takes twenty minutes. I'll give you thirty before I come out with the truck to find ya." Rose laughed. "Fine... Thirty. I'll bring the book and we'll talk a bit more over it. Maybe you can help me with the Latin." Rose said grabbing her coat and bag. "Okay Rafkin. I'll be waiting." And with that she hung up. Rose did so too grabbed the book and ran to her car. What could Brittany mean by "news"? Did she find out more about the White Zodiac? Did she find out it won't work? No...she would have told Rose over the phone. Everything was to confusing so Rose put on the radio. As normal her Simple Plan CD started blasting out the windows. So loud that when she pulled into the garage parking lot she could have sworn that the old tower of tires was shaking. Rose stepped out of the car and started up to the trailer. She knocked and Brittany answered. She looked quite different then when Rose had met her. Instead of the grease stained garage uniform she had on jeans and a t-shirt. Her hair was no longer white but it was a faint shade of blond now. "Come on in. I've got some friends I want you to meet." She said closing the door behind her. Sitting at the table skimming through the Arcanum sat two girls. One looked about sixteen. She wore baggy pants and a black shirt that said Daddy's little defect on it. Rose smiled. Her hair looked like a brownish grey color and she had haunting green eyes. The girl sitting next to her had almost the same thing on but her shirt said I'm up is that not enough?. This girl had shoulder length red hair that had a bit of blue on the bottom. Brittany coughed. The two girls looked up. "You must be Rose Rafkin. I met your father. Wonderful man. He always tried to call you to make sure you were okay. I'm so sorry for your loss" one of the girls said getting up and walking over to Rose. She reached out and put her hand on Rose's shoulder. Rose flinched but nothing happened. The girl laughed. "It's my gloves. As long as I have them on you can't see anything. Interesting huh?" Rose shook her head yes. She was very happy that she could seem normal around these people. They all seemed so kind. How could they be related to such evil people? The other girl smiled and stood up. "My names Kira Oretzia. My mother was Kalina. You know her right?" Rose shook her head yes. "Yeah. My daddy told me about her. Said she tried to stop Cyrus from doing what he was doing. You know. Catching souls." The girl in front of Rose shivered. So did Brittany. Rose looked at the two of them. "Who are you?" She said looking at the girl in front of her. She looked up. "My name is...Christina Kriticos. I'm Cyrus' youngest daughter. It's because of my father I met Brittany." She said turning to her friend.
flashback
Christina stood looking out over the auto graveyard as screams echoed out of it. She knew people were dieing and she knew she couldn't do a thing about it. She gasped and looked to her father who was standing there looking like he had been hit by a large plank of metal. "Daddy. What's going on?! Why won't you go help him?" she said pointing out into the graveyard. Suddenly Kalina appeared out of nowhere and started up to Cyrus. The two of them kissed and Christina gasped and ran off. "Christina, wait!" Her father yelled after her. She didn't turn. She should have though. She ran down the rows when she was picked up into the air by someone. She put her glasses on only to see the Juggernaut had her in the air. She closed her eyes waiting for him to drop her or rip her apart. But it never came. He just put her back down and left. Cristina opened her eyes gently and saw her. Brittany Mahoney stood there looking at her father as he turned and walked away. She turned and smiled at the girl on the ground. Brittany lowered her hand. "Don't worry. I won't hurt you." Cristina took her hand and there started a friendship.
end flashback
Christina let a tear fall and Brittany came over to help her. "I never thought my father would do that. I always thought my father was a kind man. Now that I look back on it I realize. I was wrong. I wish I could have had your father, Rose. He was always worried about you. He called when ever he could. He sent what little money my dad gave him to you. He was a good man. I just hope this will help me fulfill my vow to the ghosts." Rose looked up.
There ya go. The plot unfolds! Hope ya'll like it! More to come later, if my computer will let me...
