Ch. 4: Home Again

Casey orbed into her old house. It hadn't been used since her parents were killed. No one wants that type of house even if it has good land. 'Funny when we were living here everyone wanted it, including demons. Maybe, just maybe it could be home again. There are good memories, wonderful memories; but then there were also bad ones.' She starting walking into the family room and her eyes filled with tears.

'Stop this Casey, get a hold of yourself. They're dead and they aren't coming back.' Casey thought as she was heading for the entrance hall. She looked down and saw two blood stains. She didn't want to look at it but she couldn't get herself to turn away. 'They didn't deserve this. No family does. I'll kill them, I promise.' She crouched down and touched were her parents dead bodies laid two years earlier. Casey remembers that day all too well.

"Casey, honey. Dinner is ready." Casey raced down to see her mom. "Sweetie I made your favorite."

Casey smiled, "Chicken Cordon Blue?" Her mother nodded. "And for desert?"

"For desert we have home made cheesecake." Her mom answered.

Casey's eyes sparkled. This was going to be the best birthday ever. Tyler bounded down the stairs when he heard that Casey was told what was for dinner. He smiled at his baby sister. "Here's your gift from me." Tyler said handing Casey a small box.

"Tyler what is it?" Casey said while opening her present. At this time her father and Brian was orbing in. Casey looked up holding a locket, a heart locket.

"Wow, Tyler it's so beautiful!" Their mom said.

Brian walked up to Casey and gave her a hug. "Happy 18th birthday Case.", then handed her a package.

Brian you didn't have to." Casey's mom said.

"Of curse I did, Joanne. Henry here helped me pick it out." Brian said.

Casey carefully opened the package. It was a journal and an expensive pen with her name on it. Plus ink refills for the pen. "Thanks Brian, I Love It!"

"Well let's eat before Casey opens her last gift." Joanne said leading them into the dining room.

"It smells really good mom." Casey said. 'This is definitely the best birthday ever.'

After dinner Casey was given her last gift. "A laptop computer! Thanks mom, thanks dad."

"It's for college. We both thought you would need one." Henry said to his daughter.

Later

Casey went up to her room to pack her things for Kirsten's house, when her cell phone rang. "Hey Kirsten. Yes, I'm packing right now. I'll be over at nine. Alright see you then." Casey closed her phone then put her backpack by her door. Casey looked around her room. Everything was very tidy and plan looking. Casey picked up her bag with clothes and her new computer then headed down stairs. 'I think I'll watch TV until it's time to go. That gives me an hour, until I have to leave.'

8:30 PM

Two demons had appeared and were attacking Casey's parents. Brian and Tyler were gone and she couldn't reach them. 'Damn those Elders!' Casey thought. She decided to go help her parents as best she could with her new powers. Right as Casey reached the door the demons quickly stabbed her parents. "NO!" Casey screamed. The demons looked up smiling. They both ignited energy balls and threw them at her. At that same time Brian was orbing in and grabbed her and her bag.

"Brian, where were you? I tried calling you, but you didn't show up. They killed my parents." Casey said starting to cry. Brian pulled her into a tight hug. Tyler ran over to them.

"I was with your brother. I thought everything was fine until I felt them die. So I came for you." Brian said holding Casey tighter.

Tyler pulled Casey from Brian and hugged her not wanting to let go. "I should have been there!", his voice sounded so full of rage.

"It's not your fault, either of you." Brian said. "We have to get somewhere safe. Just in case those demons come after us, but I don't think they will."

'But they did Brian and they took you and Ty away from me, forever.' Casey stood up and heading up to her old room. She hadn't slept in days. Once she got to her room she looked around. It was the same, nothing was moved. 'At least now I can have my stuff back.' She thought as she laid down and fell asleep.
