ME: Tah-da! I'm alive! Were ya'll worried? ...I didn't think so. Sorry this
chapter took me so long but I've had mountains of homework, got a new video
game, and I've been sick. I also went on a vacation for Spring Break! It
was a blast! We went skiing in Durango, Colorado! I went snowboarding the
first day, but switched later 'cause it was excruciatingly painful. And I
couldn't get off the stupid lift without falling... Hey! It's harder than it
sounds! But anyway, then I switched to skiing, and that was fun. We've been
skiing for Spring Break every year for the past seven years, so I know what
I'm doing.
Lonna: Tell 'em about getting run over!
ME: Oh, yeah. We went skiing with my friend and her family and her little sister RAN OVER ME!!! It hurt like freakin' hell!!! I was skiing, doing my parallels, nice and smooth... then I see a flash of green and purple jacket and BOOM! I'm on my ass, missing a ski, and in excruciating pain! She didn't even apologize! She goes, "Well you were in my way."
I wanted to strangle the little...
It took me ten minutes to get my ski back on.
Jaeger: Ouch.
ME: Yeah.
Van: Hey Dark Angel! Am I you're favorite character? Do I have a fan?
Jaeger: Yay! You finally have a fan!
ME (Agent-G): Sorry bout the country/continent mix-up. I was checking emails and thinking about US History notes I was supposed to study over spring break at the same time. It mentioned country expansion and Canada so I meant continent, but it came out as country. US History can do that to people. That's why it's evil.
(Dark Angel): To be honest, I didn't know you went by Van. Van is based off a combination of my cousin and a friend of mine. But hey, that's still cool! I like it when people can relate to my characters.
While I'm at it, I'll mention that Jaeger's based off a combo of me and two of my sister's friends. Well, I kinda count them as my own friends too.
Celeste is based of my aunt and my mother.
Lonna's based off two of my pals.
I already mentioned Jasper's based off Jasper. (The horse.)
Oh, a question for all of you: Do ya'll actually read this crap? I mean, I don't know most of you and yet here I am, typing about my life...
Jasper: That's ok, life is interesting.
ME: Really? NAT, REVIEW!!!
(Don't ask, NAT just needs to review. She reads, but neglects her duties as reader by not reviewing. Keep this up NAT and you're fired!)
Chapter 8
_~*~_
Jasper
This place is huge! I love it! The only bad thing is... the cats! That stupid black one follows me around and tries to eat my tail! I haven't stopped sneezing!
At first I didn't get along real well with Lonna because of the cats. But I forgave her when she taught me the "Sacred Art of Halo." I kicked Jaeger's ass!
She was all, "Dammit! You shot me!"
I was all, "Yeah!"
Lonna was all, "No, that was me. Jasper shot a wall."
Sigh. Good times, good times.
I strummed my guitar, trying to pick up a good beat when Jaeger burst in.
"Dude!" she yelled. "They're coming back!"
"Who?"
"Everyone! Come on! You gotta meet 'em!"
I put my instrument down on my bed and let her pull me downstairs. The others were waiting for the arrivals too. I saw a car pull up in the driveway and a tall, dark-haired guy step out. He waved as the car pulled away and came up the steps.
~*~
Van
My life is ruined. My mom hates me, my dad hates me, my brother hates me, even Kimmi hates me! Why? Because when I told them, "I'm a vampire," they got real freaked out and didn't talk to me for the rest of my break. I hung out with my old friends, and since they didn't know it was fine. But there's something about when you're family no longer thinks of you as family that all the good stuff just doesn't matter anymore.
But hey! I'm back baby! People like me here, I can be happy here, and maybe if I play my cards right score a date with Rogue.
I noticed Jaeger inside and next to her a... hmmm. What is that? I ignored him and focused on Rogue. I could ask questions later.
"Rogue," I opened my arms to embrace her. "My darling, you look good enough to eat!"
She pulled away. "Wha' do Ah look like? A blood bank? Git away from me!"
I heard a snicker. What, does the demon-boy think I'm funny? Cool, I like him.
"And you are?" I asked him.
"Hi," he said.
"Hi Van," Jaeger greeted me.
"Dija miss me?"
"Uhhh... you know it?" she said, trying not to hurt my feelings and doing a terrible job.
"Didn't think so. So when did you finally decide to break away from the Dark Side and come over here?"
"About two days after you left."
"Ok, cool." I looked back at "Hi." "Who's he?"
"Stupid."
"I am not!"
"Then introduce yourself!"
He held out his hand to her. "Hi, I'm Jas-"
"To him dumb ass!"
"Oh." He turned back to me. "I'm Jasper."
We shook. "Van," I said. "Van the Vampire Man."
"Uh-huh." He nodded slowly. He had this bored voice that made him seem completely disinterested in everything. His face had this real calm expression that said, "Quick! Call an ambulance, you're boring me to death!" and that voice just adds to the whole thing.
"When'd you get here?" I asked him.
He shrugged. "Last week."
"What's your power?"
"Scaring the shit outa small children." He smiled mischievously. "Sometimes I manage to frighten an adult or two."
"Cool."
"You guys are so boring," Jaeger complained. "I'm gonna go talk to Scott."
"Bye!" I waved at her and Four-eyes laughed again. "I'll miss you!"
"Whatever."
"You really a vampire?"
Huh? I turned to Jas. He was smiling like an idiot, but still sounded bored. "You betcha. Those horns real?"
He looked up at them and nodded.
"Nice."
~*~
Jasper
Van's cool I guess. He could cut back a bit with the flirting in my opinion, but he's still a nice guy. I just hope Rogue doesn't kill him...
"Jasper!" Jaeger yelled at me from across the room. "Come on!"
I walked up to wait for more people to show up, Van followed me.
"She your girlfriend?"
"Huh? Wha..."
"Jaeger," Van said. "Is she your girlfriend?"
"No...she's my si-"
"Dude, there's no need to be shy about it." Van ran his hand through his hair a couple times. "You should be proud to get a girlfriend like her when... well no offense... but when you look like that... girlfriends can be hard to come by."
"But-"
"Fine man, say what you want. I'll keep this between you and me." He winked at me (kinda odd...) and stood by Rogue.
Weirdo.
We watched as some more people came, Jaeger introduced me to her friends Bobby, Evan, and some German guy.
"Hey Kurt."
"Guten tag." He looked me up and down and smiled. "I'm Kurt."
He held out his hand for me to shake when-
"Ah! My demonic brethren!" Van threw an arm over the poor guy's shoulders. "May I introduce to our long lost demon-brother, Jasper?" He threw his other arm over me.
"Ja... zhat's very nice." He tried to get away but Van held strong. "I've got some unpacking to do so if you'll excuse me..."
"But you just got here," Van argued. "Relax, get some food, and maybe help me get a date with your sister...?"
"Ja right," Kurt said rolling his eyes. "No offense man, but even if I tried I couldn't get her to go out vith you. You know zhat."
"Hey." Van jerked his head at me. "If he can convince Jaeger to be his girlfriend, you can get-"
"Vhat!?" Kurt exclaimed. "You're dating Jaeger!?"
"No! She's my-"
"Dude," Van yelled over us. "Take it easy! It's ok to have a girlfriend."
"Are harassing my-" Jaeger started.
"Boyfriend! No. I'm-"
"Kurt's not my boyfriend!" she argued.
"Duh, if I couldn't get you to like me Kurt doesn't stand a chance."
"Hey! Zhat's not true mein friend!"
"I was talking about Jasper anyway. Your boyfriend."
"Dude," she said. "Jasper's my brother."
"... You're joking, right?"
"No."
Van looked at me. Then he looked at Jaeger, and back at me again. He nodded slowly. "I see Jaeger got all the looks."
Gr. I raised an eyebrow. Van threw his arms around Kurt's and my (A/N: or would it be Kurt's and mine? I never got that...) shoulders and started walking around the Institute, hauling us with him.
"Can I go unpack now?" Kurt asked.
"You need something to eat," Van told him.
"I'm really not hungry," Kurt shot back.
"But are you relaxed?"
"Ja, can I go unpack now?"
"Are you sure you're not hungry?"
"Yes!" Kurt was starting to turn red. "May I go unpack now?"
"Are you feeling alright? You look a little flustered."
"I'm fine!" He looks a little pissed, not flustered. "Let me go unpack!"
"I think you should go see Miss Celeste about-"
Before he could finish his sentence, Kurt hit a few buttons on his watch and- BAM! Blue guy right there! Then- BAMF! He was gone in a puff of smoke! I couldn't believe my eyes. "Whoa..."
Van was waving his hand around, trying to chase off the smoke. "Man, I hate it when he does that!"
"I think it's cool!"
"Not as cool as vampirism." He stopped waving his hand and smiled. "See ya later, I gotta get Rogue to go out with me."
He left, calmly walking to where Rogue and everyone else was. I wasn't gonna join him at first, but then I pictured him flirting with my sister, so I followed. For her sake.
~
I got my first holo-watch yesterday! It's just like Kurt's! It is sooooooooooo cool! I spent all day turning it on and turning it off! Not even Jaeger could recognize me! It's great! No one even knew it was me, with an exception of the Professor of course. He knows all.
So anyway, last night I had my watch on, and I started flirting with Kitty, this real cute girl. Well, I freak her out normally, but with my watch on...
I had me girlfriend for five minutes! That's a new record.
Then I turned my watch off and scared the crap out of her. I wonder, will she ever speak to me again?
But now, last night's over and I'm currently in the back of Scott's car next to Evan (with my watch on, of course). Van was supposed to come with us, but he said, "No, I got a surprise."
Scott went, "I hope you're wearing pants this time."
Pants this time? Boy, does this guy have a reputation or what?
"We're here," Scott announced.
Wow, this place is big... I wonder how many times I could get lost in a place like this...
Eventually we found the girls and when Kitty asked where Van was I went, "He's walking to school."
My sister rolled her eyes and Kitty sighed, "What's the Pants-less Wonder got planned for us this time?"
Ok, I'm scared now. The guy freaked me out before, but this whole no-pants- at-school idea is just disturbing.
...
Well, it's not pants, but...
They guy just walked up to us, and whacked Kurt with a plastic sword.
"Ouch! Vhat zhe..."
"Nice skirt..." Jaeger seemed to be having trouble not laughing.
Van looked insulted. "It's not a skirt! I'm a gladiator! See the sword, the shield, and this really cool helmet?" He fiddled with it.
"Zhat hurt..." Kurt rubbed the back of his head.
"Sorry," Van shrugged. "Must be that vampire super-strength coming into play here."
"This is so embarrassing," Rogue hid her eyes. "Ah hope no one Ah know sees me with him."
"Here, here," I agreed.
Jaeger started toward class. "Maybe if I walk away slowly..."
Everyone followed suit. Well, not me. I don't where my classes are. So I turned to ask Van, but the gladiator-boy was already halfway down the hallway.
Guess I'll just have to play this by trial and error...
No, that's a math class. History. Science. But no English! What's up with that!?!
I crossed my fingers-No! Claws! As I rounded the corner, hoping my class would be there.
It wasn't, but this is just as good.
"Oh hi," she said. "You wouldn't happen to know where the English class is, would you?"
My brain turned to mush. Is it just me, or are things getting a little hot in here?
"N-n-no..." I managed to stutter. I spread my wings (that thankfully no one can see cause of this cool watch-doohicky) just a little bit so I wouldn't start sweating.
"I'm new here," she continued.
"M-me t-t-too."
She cocked her head. "Are you feeling alright? You look a little pale."
"I'm f-fine," I ran my claws (that, again, no one can see) through my hair; a habit of mine I do when I get nervous.
She nodded slowly. "Well, I'll see you later, I guess..." She started walking away.
"W-wait!" I called to her. "I didn't get you name."
She smiled. "I'm Regan."
"Oh, yeah. Me too."
"You're name is Regan?"
"Huh? Uh, no! I'm Jasper."
"Ok," she backed up a bit.
I laughed. Not because I found something funny, but because I'm just so nervous. She walked away and I felt like a total idiot! I completely choked up! I've been in this school one day (not even that long!) and I'm already in love!
Hold it! Didn't she say she was looking for the English class?
I ran to catch up with her.
"Oh," she said when I ran up beside her. "Hi again."
"I'm looking for English too." I looked down at the floor. "Who do you have? We might be in the same class."
"I've got Mrs. Torno," she said.
I smiled stupidly. "Me too!"
"Great," she said. "Now I don't have wander around like an idiot all day."
Sigh... I'm in love...
~
I don't know how we found the English class, but we sat next to each other and made obnoxious comments about everything the teacher said or did. It was a blast!
Sigh. But now that's over and I have Chemistry/Science/whatever they call it here with Jaeger, Kurt, and Vampire-boy.
Since Kurt was already sitting next to Jaeger, and some other girl was sitting next to Van, I sat at the table to right of Jaeger's table next to some girl with a pierced nose. (A/N: if any of ya'll remember [and if you do, get a life!] in the second chapter, when Jaeger chose to sit with Kurt because her other option was a girl with a pierced nose... Sorry, I had to throw that in there) I would've sat next to that Chinese guy, but the teacher, Mrs. Sullivan had everyone partnered with the opposite sex. I wish Regan was here...
This sucks. We're doing some genetic outcomes thing, we flip coins and stuff to determine what our child would look like... you get the idea. Kurt's over there flirting with my sister, and Van's scoring points with his lab partner(I think he just got her number), and my partner's trying to flirt with me. I'm talking to Jaeger, Kurt, and Van though. Trying to ignore her. I think she's a slut, but maybe I'm being too harsh.
Van adjusted his funny lookin' hat and randomly asked my sister, "Jaeger, where do babies come from?"
She gave him a funny look. "Uh, mothers."
Van flipped his coin. "Where do mothers get them?"
She said bluntly, "Sex."
Everyone within earshot (about six tables) burst out laughing! It was so funny!
"You're gonna be such a blunt mozher!" Kurt laughed.
Van collected himself and said, "You're kids are gonna be like, 'Mommy, where do babies come from?' and you're gonna say, 'Mothers.'" Laughter. "Then they're gonna say, 'How do mommies get them?' and you're gonna say-" More laughter. "You're gonna say, 'Sex!'" He laughed harder. "But since they're just little kids they won't know what sex is," He banged his fist on the table, still laughing and turning red. "So they're gonna say, 'What's sex Mommy?' and you're gonna say, 'I'll demonstrate with your father.' And! And!"
He couldn't finish he was laughing so hard. Everyone was! Van, the pale gladiator, was redder than a lobster, and poor Jaeger was laughing and shaking her head in embarrassment.
But she stopped as soon as she saw Mrs. Sullivan standing over her. "What is the meaning of this?" she asked, tapping her foot on the floor.
Everyone was still laughing when Jaeger said, "We're just discussing how being an honest parent can affect the lives of your children."
"You caused quite an uproar," she growled.
"It's what I do," Jaeger choked out before breaking down and having another laugh-attack.
Mrs. Sullivan didn't seem as amused. "I'm writing you up." She looked Van: The Gladiator up and down. "You too."
"No need, Mary," he said lazily (I guess her first name's Mary then). "I've already got detention tomorrow."
"Why am I not surprised?" she asked before slithering off.
So we did our science stuff as quietly as possible (though not too quiet) and had a relatively good day at school.
I can't believe I just had a good day at school! Did I really say that?

ME: Ok, I know I cut a little short at the end there, but this chapter was getting a bit long, so...
Van: I shall rule the empire!!! *Whacks D-m-n-w-t with plastic sword and waves shield around like a maniac.*
ME: Oh take that costume off! It's fine for a story, but please just... You're embarrassing me! (Kurt's right, that does hurt...)
Kurt: Ha! I told you! *BAMF.*
Van: I ain't taking off my cloths in fronta' you!
ME: ...Go away and change!!!
Van: *Snorts and walks off, dragging his sword on the floor.*
Jaeger: Can you kick him out of the story? Please?
ME: No, go away.
Jaeger: Oh come on! You know you want to! The story'll be so much better with him gone.
Van: *Upstairs changing.* I can still hear you, Poopsie!!!
Jaeger: o.0 Did he just call me Poopsie...?
ME: Here's a stick, go stab him. *Hands Jaeger a sharp, pointed stick.*
Jaeger: ( Yay!!! *Skips around happily, waiting for unsuspecting Van to finish changing.*
Van: I'm done... *Comes back downstairs, wearing normal cloths.* Hey, what's that stick for...? HELP ME!!!!! *Runs from Jaeger like his life depends on it. Which it does...*
ME: *Watches as they chase each other away.* ...Good riddance. Anyway, you know what to do! R&R!!! Tell me what you think!
ESPECIALLY YOU NAT!!!
Lonna: Tell 'em about getting run over!

"Oh hi," she said. "You wouldn't happen to know where the English class is, would you?"
My brain turned to mush. Is it just me, or are things getting a little hot in here?
"N-n-no..." I managed to stutter. I spread my wings (that thankfully no one can see cause of this cool watch-doohicky) just a little bit so I wouldn't start sweating.
"I'm new here," she continued.
"M-me t-t-too."
She cocked her head. "Are you feeling alright? You look a little pale."
"I'm f-fine," I ran my claws (that, again, no one can see) through my hair; a habit of mine I do when I get nervous.
She nodded slowly. "Well, I'll see you later, I guess..." She started walking away.
"W-wait!" I called to her. "I didn't get you name."
She smiled. "I'm Regan."
"Oh, yeah. Me too."
"You're name is Regan?"
"Huh? Uh, no! I'm Jasper."
"Ok," she backed up a bit.
I laughed. Not because I found something funny, but because I'm just so nervous. She walked away and I felt like a total idiot! I completely choked up! I've been in this school one day (not even that long!) and I'm already in love!
Hold it! Didn't she say she was looking for the English class?
I ran to catch up with her.
"Oh," she said when I ran up beside her. "Hi again."
"I'm looking for English too." I looked down at the floor. "Who do you have? We might be in the same class."
"I've got Mrs. Torno," she said.
I smiled stupidly. "Me too!"
"Great," she said. "Now I don't have wander around like an idiot all day."
Sigh... I'm in love...

I don't know how we found the English class, but we sat next to each other and made obnoxious comments about everything the teacher said or did. It was a blast!
Sigh. But now that's over and I have Chemistry/Science/whatever they call it here with Jaeger, Kurt, and Vampire-boy.
Since Kurt was already sitting next to Jaeger, and some other girl was sitting next to Van, I sat at the table to right of Jaeger's table next to some girl with a pierced nose. (A/N: if any of ya'll remember [and if you do, get a life!] in the second chapter, when Jaeger chose to sit with Kurt because her other option was a girl with a pierced nose... Sorry, I had to throw that in there) I would've sat next to that Chinese guy, but the teacher, Mrs. Sullivan had everyone partnered with the opposite sex. I wish Regan was here...
This sucks. We're doing some genetic outcomes thing, we flip coins and stuff to determine what our child would look like... you get the idea. Kurt's over there flirting with my sister, and Van's scoring points with his lab partner(I think he just got her number), and my partner's trying to flirt with me. I'm talking to Jaeger, Kurt, and Van though. Trying to ignore her. I think she's a slut, but maybe I'm being too harsh.
Van adjusted his funny lookin' hat and randomly asked my sister, "Jaeger, where do babies come from?"
She gave him a funny look. "Uh, mothers."
Van flipped his coin. "Where do mothers get them?"
She said bluntly, "Sex."
Everyone within earshot (about six tables) burst out laughing! It was so funny!
"You're gonna be such a blunt mozher!" Kurt laughed.
Van collected himself and said, "You're kids are gonna be like, 'Mommy, where do babies come from?' and you're gonna say, 'Mothers.'" Laughter. "Then they're gonna say, 'How do mommies get them?' and you're gonna say-" More laughter. "You're gonna say, 'Sex!'" He laughed harder. "But since they're just little kids they won't know what sex is," He banged his fist on the table, still laughing and turning red. "So they're gonna say, 'What's sex Mommy?' and you're gonna say, 'I'll demonstrate with your father.' And! And!"
He couldn't finish he was laughing so hard. Everyone was! Van, the pale gladiator, was redder than a lobster, and poor Jaeger was laughing and shaking her head in embarrassment.
But she stopped as soon as she saw Mrs. Sullivan standing over her. "What is the meaning of this?" she asked, tapping her foot on the floor.
Everyone was still laughing when Jaeger said, "We're just discussing how being an honest parent can affect the lives of your children."
"You caused quite an uproar," she growled.
"It's what I do," Jaeger choked out before breaking down and having another laugh-attack.
Mrs. Sullivan didn't seem as amused. "I'm writing you up." She looked Van: The Gladiator up and down. "You too."
"No need, Mary," he said lazily (I guess her first name's Mary then). "I've already got detention tomorrow."
"Why am I not surprised?" she asked before slithering off.
So we did our science stuff as quietly as possible (though not too quiet) and had a relatively good day at school.
I can't believe I just had a good day at school! Did I really say that?
_~*~_
ME: Ok, I know I cut a little short at the end there, but this chapter was getting a bit long, so...
Van: I shall rule the empire!!! *Whacks D-m-n-w-t with plastic sword and waves shield around like a maniac.*
ME: Oh take that costume off! It's fine for a story, but please just... You're embarrassing me! (Kurt's right, that does hurt...)
Kurt: Ha! I told you! *BAMF.*
Van: I ain't taking off my cloths in fronta' you!
ME: ...Go away and change!!!
Van: *Snorts and walks off, dragging his sword on the floor.*
Jaeger: Can you kick him out of the story? Please?
ME: No, go away.
Jaeger: Oh come on! You know you want to! The story'll be so much better with him gone.
Van: *Upstairs changing.* I can still hear you, Poopsie!!!
Jaeger: o.0 Did he just call me Poopsie...?
ME: Here's a stick, go stab him. *Hands Jaeger a sharp, pointed stick.*
Jaeger: ( Yay!!! *Skips around happily, waiting for unsuspecting Van to finish changing.*
Van: I'm done... *Comes back downstairs, wearing normal cloths.* Hey, what's that stick for...? HELP ME!!!!! *Runs from Jaeger like his life depends on it. Which it does...*
ME: *Watches as they chase each other away.* ...Good riddance. Anyway, you know what to do! R&R!!! Tell me what you think!
ESPECIALLY YOU NAT!!!
