To all my reviewers: YOU GUYS KICK ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, to start, I'm insanely sorry for the short chapters! I wanted to post SOMETHING so that I didn't loose anyone, although I'm sure I have...I don't know. Anyways, here it is, chapter eight of Cuándo Angeles Vienen A M:
#####
Suze's POV:
When I woke up this time, I was laying down on this really comfortable couch inside. I don't know how I got there, but I assume it had something to do with the people calling themselves my parents. I groaned, putting my head in my hands as I remembered them.
"We are your parents...We are your parents..." The phrase bounced around in my head so much that I wanted to scream. "Dad?" I whispered, hoping for once he would come when I called, even though he was mad at me for getting knocked up and married. (A/N: Bet ya'll thought I forgot about that, didn't you??)
"Hey pumpkin." Dad said, materializing next to me. He seemed to be less mad at me, so I took this as a good sign.
"Dad, I have to ask you a question." I said. I took a deep breath.
"Ok, pumpkin, shoot."
"Was I adopted?"
"What?!" Dad asked, jumping up from the couch. "How'd you find out?! You were never to know!"
"So it's true?!" I exclaimed. "These people- the Henlee's- they're my real parents?!"
Dad looked around. "Never thought I'd come back here," He sighed wistfully. "Well, the cat's out of the bag. Might as well explain."
"Ron and Lara Henlee are your real parents. Your mother and I couldn't have children, and when Ron entered the military life, he wanted to shield you from it, since you had inherited their Mediator powers." Dad stopped here for a moment, to see my reaction.
"So, both of them are mediators?" I asked. Dad nodded. "Then where did I get the shifter stuff?"
"None of us are too sure about that, pumpkin." Dad said. "So, while Ron and Lara moved around the world, living the military life, your mother and I raised you. We could never have children, and we were thrilled to have you. After awhile, you started calling us Mom and Dad, and since Ron and Lara couldn't visit or call or anything...."
"You raised me as your own." I finished.
"Well, yes." Dad said. "But it never mattered that you weren't our daughter by blood. You were in every other way, and that's what mattered."
I sat in silence for awhile. "Why now?" I asked. "Why now, that I'm 18, married, pregnant," Dad winced at the P word. "Why now do they choose to KIDNAP me?"
"Because you are carrying a very important child, Susannah." I heard from behind me. I turned my head to see Lara standing there. "Hello, Peter. I see you're glowing these days."
Dad shrugged and gave her a hug. "Wait just one minute. I'm carrying a very important child?"
"Yes." Lara said simply. She moved- more like floated- over to the couch and sat beside me. "Your child, Susannah, will the most powerful shifter this planet- or any other- has ever seen."
My jaw dropped. Literally. "Sweetie, you're drawing flies." Dad said, closing my jaw.
"What the bloody hell?!" I screamed, leaping up. "Most powerful shifter?! I DON'T THINK SO! THIS KID'S DAD USED TO BE DEAD! HOW THE BLOODY HELL CAN IT BE MOST POWERFUL SHIFTER WHEN ONLY ONE PARENT IS A SHIFTER?!"
"I take it Jesse never told you about his previous life?" Lara said gently.
