It was morning. The sun had just barely reached the sky when Cover woke up. She herd a loud noise and got up, as she was thinking 'It's nothing, I should go back to sleep' but she knew it wouldn't hurt to look. She carefully and quietly walked to her door and peered out into the hall. There she saw a hooded figure hidden by the shadows that the sun created through the window at the end of the hall.
She quickly and quietly shut her door and walked to the bookcase and pulled out a red book titled 'Dragons and there Whereabouts' and pushed the bookcase to the left, it slowly moved to reveal another brown door. She knocked on it and herd a "What do you want?" from the other side.
Cover opened the door to Tala's room and said quietly "There's someone out there" she whispered as she walked to his bedside. He looked up at her with sleep-filled eyes.
"what?!" he hissed. His mother was awake down stairs. He saw her talking to Bryan's mom when he walked up to go to bed. He hastily picked up his beyblade and told her to stay as he went into the hallway.
He looked and saw nothing. He opened all the boy's doors and told them to get up and follow him. They all walked quietly down stairs in their pajamas. All wearing black silk baggy pants and no shirts. Unknown to all but Bryan and Ian, Cover had followed.
They all herd two screams of pain and saw Bryan's and Tala's mother's being rapped. Bryan and Tala lit up with fear and anger. When Cover saw this it ticked her off. She jumped on the banister and flew by the boys who hissed "Stay back!" but she paid no heed.
When the men looked up, they laughed at this girl in paw print Pajamas.
"Hey, she looks like fun, we'll take her after were done with these two" the hooded figure over Catalina said to the other.
"Kiva!" Cover yelled and launched her beyblade. It was half-white and half-black. Then Kiva appeared in all her glory, spiked wings flapping and her snarling at the two men. Her teeth glowed then she howled. This made the men freeze.
"Wall of Flames" Cover said as she calmly sat on the end of the banister. A wall of fire appeared around the men as they backed off the girls. The boys ran down and Bryan and Tala went to their mothers. Everyone watched as this fierce wolf like girl glared at the men.
"You are aware I don't like bullies and rapists, right?" she asked the two men, who gulped.
"Well guess what I do to em." she stated glaring at them.
"Let em go?" one of the men asked.
"Dead wrong, I like to teach em a lesson, so does Kiva." she said indicating the half wolf half panther "Well Kiva?" she looked at her bit beast who nodded. Cover silently chanted 'wake me up when it's over, let my alter ego out…Wolver" She suddenly was engulfed by a white light.
When the light died down they all saw a wolf. She had black fur and glowing green eyes. She was big for a wolf, more muscular then most and her fangs showed under her lips. She glared at the men as the light died down. The firewall also went away with Kiva. The men tried to run in their shirts and boxers but they all herd a low growl. They all saw a red fox there with glowing green eyes.
The men tried the other escape, to the dining room, but they all saw a germen shepherded also with glowing green eyes there. They all growled at the same time.
"Cover, Clover, Cove?" Ian asked.
"Wrong shrimp, Roxy, Foxy and Moxy." the wolf said, most likely Roxy.
"Now, what shall we do about these two?" the fox, Foxy, asked.
Roxy suddenly pounced and bit one of the men who screamed in pain. Foxy and Moxy did the same to the other man. When the men looked like piles of dog shit, the girls let them run.
"Don't EVER com back!" Roxy yelled at them. The girls were surrounded by a bright light and there on the floor lay Cover. Laughing her ass off.
She stood up and look at Chelsea and Catalina, who were hugging their sons.
"You okay?" she asked. The women nodded, scared for their lives.
"The dogs….." Ian's voice faded. Cover opened the door and saw that the dogs were all cowering.
"Scared, they must have had a bigger animal with em at the time." Cover said and walked back inside. "Fire wall" she said and the door lit up but the faded.
"What does that do?" Tala asked.
"Whoever is not a friend gets burnt" she stated. She picked up her blade and yawned. She walked upstairs and screamed. The boys all got up and ran to her voice. She sat with a blood-covered arm, out side of her door. Leering at her were dark green eyes, boring into her soul.
The boys all called their bit beasts and got rid of the thing. Cover sat with her eyes widened. "What the freak was that?" she asked turning to Tala.
"A little nuisance we call Android, it just doesn't die" Tala told her. He helped her up and pulled her downstairs to take care of her arm.
"Bryan, can you do this? She keeps struggling" Tala said to the boy. He nodded.
"Well you would squirm if you had this crap on your arm!" Cover yelled at Tala as Bryan looked for something.
"Thank you Cover" Catalina and Chelsea said to her, their makeup was running down their pale faces.
"Hey, no problem, you helped me out, gives me a right to help you and your boys out" Cover said smiling at the two.
"Who were they?" Spencer wondered from his spot at the table.
"Not a clue" Ian said from hit spot on the counter by the stove.
"Damn" Tala growled from across the table.
"OUCH!" Cover yelled at Bryan who had just finished cleaning her cut, almost falling off the counter.
"Shut it, it helps" Bryan said wrapping a bandage around her upper arm.
After that, Catalina and Chelsea went upstairs to change and bathe, and Tala called the cops. While he was on the phone Cover got up, looked in the fridge, and grabbed some orange juice. Ian threw her a cup, which she caught easily. She poured herself a drink and put the juice away. She got back on the counter when Tala walked back into the room.
"They said their have been attacks lately." Tala said, everybody growled, but Cover's eyes also turned blood red for a split second, but she relaxed. After about three minuets of pondering and silence, Tala's cell rang. Cover jumped and fell off the counter. Everybody stared at her and she started laughing.
"what?" Tala asked.
"Hurry up, these girls are driving us nuts!" Kai yelled over the receiver.
"Okay okay, we'll be there in about half an hour." Tala said and hung up. Cover gave him a questioning look but told her to go get changed. She walked upstairs and into her now messed up beyond all reason room, locked the door and went to take a shower.
When she got out she put on navy blue lee pipe jeans, attached about seven chains to them, she then put on a black shirt then put on black studded wrist bands and a black spiked dog collar. She put her hair into a high ponytail and pulled on her black sneekers and tied them behind her anckle. She walked down the hall and sat on the banister and slid down.
When she hit bottmom, she saw the boys waiting for her. She grabbed her hoodie from the coat rack, she put it there last night, and put it on. She felt around in the pocket and grabbed her cd player and turned it onto Linkon Park's 'Breaking a habbit'.
They all left after saying good-bye to Chealsea and Catalina. As they walked, Cover was bobbing her head slightly. She smiled at the younger kids on the street bladeing, remembering that it used to be her and her sisters on the streets improving on their skills.
"Cover!" Cover looked up to see her sisters, Robert, Johnny, Oliver and Kai sitting on a bench, her sisters and her wearing the same cloths. If it wasn't for the hoodies, hair and eyes you wouldn't be able to tell who was who. Cover ran and hugged her sisters as the boys got up.
"Lets scate!" Clover said and pushed three red buttons on her shoes and a line of wheels came out. Cover and Cove did the same and they all took off leaveing the boys behind. About three minuets later the girls came back and stopped in front of them all grinning.
"Where we gonna go?" Cover asked the boys, they just shrugged and started walking. The girls followed and Cover turned on her cd player and noticed Clover had her bag.
"You got your speakers?" she asked and Clover nodded. Cover gave her the cd player and Clover hooked it up and turned on the cd, it happened to be Matalica's 'Sandman' the girls all sang along with it whail the skated.
The boys didn't mind the music at all and talked amongst themselves untill Cover tripped over a rock and fell into Bryan's back.
"Sorry man, damn rocks want me dead to" Cover said regaining her balance. Bryan just hned and started to walk with the others.
"Talk about self centered" Clover said. Cover just nodded and started to skate on.When they reached the park Cover started yelling "Duke!" repeatedly, when Bryan was about to say shut up a Doberman came bounding out of the bushes and stopped at her feet. She patted the dog on his head.
The dog went around sniffing everyone. "Don't be afraid, he can smell fear, he's a sweet dog" she said and kept skating. "Duke come" she said and the dog took off after her.
The boys and the two girls were just going right along when they all herd a screem and barking, then they all took off. When they arrived to the scource, they found Cover in the pond, and Duke trying to pull her out.
Bryan went and grabbed her wrist and pulled her up out of the water. Tala was nearby looking at the ground. "She didn't just fall" he said. He was looking down at the snow. "There is a shoe trail, they have a sort of run off so the person was running, and they probably saw Cover and turnined right here" Tala said watching the tracks.
"Then right into the pond, and here is a mark that showed Duke jumping on the person, they fell and duke had his paws on either side of their head, then her must have herd Cover because it looks like he ran off and scrahed the crap out of the person because there is blood right here." he pointed.
"We should get her back" Bryan said, Cover had turned a light blue and was shivering.
"Oh shit" Kai said. He took off his pirka and put it over her. They all started back to Tala's house. When they reached the front gate, Duke started growling at one of the female dogs inside. She growled back.
"Duke……….Stand…………Down" Cover said between breaths she took. He did as told and followed the humans inside, but then he turned and went back out the door. She was put on the red sofa with a warm blanket and everybody sat down. Bryan at the foot of her couch, Tala in his chair, Kai in the other chair, Robert sitting next to Oliver on the other couch, Ian, Spencer and Johnny were on the floor. Clover and Cove sat in front of their sister on the floor.
It had been around a half an hour of relaxing when the power went out right when Cover had waken up. "Shit" she said and moved to stretch but felt something solid by her feet.
"Whoever I just kicked sorry" she said. She let her eyes adjust to the dark and saw Bryan.
"Okay, now what happened?" Cover asked as she sat up, but jumped when she herd thunder.
"Scared of a little thunder?" Tala teased.
"We all are" Clover said quietly, her eyes down cast.
"that's when it all started" Cove said, her eyes sad.
"Oh" Tala said, sorry for the three girls whose life is worse then Boris could ever make his team and his life.
"Lets go, I don't like being down here" Cover said, looking around.
"yeah, I feel like I'm being watched" Oliver said. They all stood, Cover grabing the black blaket and wraping it around her, and went upstairs. In the hall, they all saw through the window at the end of the hall that it was raining hard and lightning sounded outside. The tree in front of the window made things worse. Cover jumped and grabbed onto the nearest thing to her, which hapend to be Bryan when thunder crashed outside.
He tensed and kept his eyes on the window. Cover and the others noticed this and looked. The girls heartbeats all sped up. Cover clutched onto Bryan, Clover held onto Tala like no tomorrow and Cove hung onto Robert. They all saw a pair of red eyes stareing at them.
Cover was horrified. She slowly moved her hand to her shirt, the eyes not noticing, and got her silver dog whitsle. She blew, the eyes went straight to her, glareing intensely. They all saw, in the flash of lightning white fangs with drool dripping thikly from them.
When Duke didn't come, she yelled "Duke! HELP!" not even a second later they all herd the smash of the door and the barking of a dog. They all herd the sound of dogs running upstairs. Duke ran in front of Cover with three other dogs.
Duke looked at Cover for a command. "Window. Red. Eyes." she said shortly, never takeing her eyes off of those red eyes.
Duke looked to the window and saw the red eyes. He bent low, bared his teeth, fur riseing, and growled. The other dogs did the same. Three were in front of each pair of people, Bryan and Cover, Kai, Oliver and Johnny, Robert and Cove and Clover and Tala.
"Sick em Duke" Cover said, the dog took off barking, then in a flash of blue lightning, the eyes were gone. Cover looked fearfully around and went into Bryan's room. Everyone else followed. They all looked around and saw a small lump on his bed. Ian went over and poked it and it bit back.
"Good god woman! Let go!" Ian yelled. Cover had bitten him. She let go and started to laugh.
"What the crap was that thing?" Cove asked nobody inparticular.
"Might be one of Android's men" Tala answered. He was sitting on Bryan's work desk. Cove was sitting on the soft dark blue carpet, Clover was on the loveseat next to Robert, and Kai was leaning up aginst the wall. Johnny was lieing on the floor with his hands behind his head, Oliver was sitting in a chair and Bryan was leaning up aginst his bead.
"its eyes, it's like they bore into my soul" Cove said as she slid off the bed and started doing flips, being careful not to fall on anybody. Her shirt, being tucked into her belt, didn't fall up when she did her flips.
"Another habit to break, her flipping off walls" Cove sweat dropped when Cover litaraly used the wall as a boost to do a flip.
"Damn, didn't think you were serious" Ian said, watching this stressed out girl kick off the black walls.
