Delilah was at the loud family home. She was sitting on the couch. She was still kept thinking of what lincoln said to her yesterday.
Luan at that moment was coming down the stairs. She took notice of delilah.
Luan:well you visit like clockwork.
Delilah turned around to see her on the stairs.
Delilah:Oh it's you luan?
Luan:Orange you glad to see me.
Luan said as she jumped from the stairs landing onto the couch.
Luan:You know you can watch tv right?
Delilah: Oh yeah right silly me ha ha.
She gave a fake laugh. Luan raised a eyebrow. She knew she her laugh wasnt real.
Luan:Okay whats wrong. One thing i can stand in this world is a fake laughter. Id this about what happened with lincoln.
Delilah:Yes. Im still kinda shook up. After the whole thing. I know something is wrong with him.
Luan:What do you mean. How did he become what he was.
Luan asked delilah.
Delilah:Look orlok told me how it happened. You see when we used that knife. You know that disable are abilities. Well orlok to mention to lincoln that when the person heal and get their powers back do not make them angry. You know why?
Luan:No why?
Delilah:Because the person in that is unpredictable and it make the person gives off spiritual energy. In my case demonic energy. This got into lincoln's body.
Luan:Okay so what did lincoln turned into?
Delilah:Luan he turned into a vampire.
Luan:What are you talking about he already a vampire.
She asked scratching her head in confusion.
Delilah:No luan this vampire is different. This one is basically a demon. Its called the strigoi. The strigoi is a vampire in romanian folklore. You and your siblings are have some traits of the north american vampire.But vampires changes throughout time. The strigoi is a troubled spirit that comes out the grave to feed on the living.
Luan:a Troubled spirit? Wait how is lincoln troubled. Like did he say something to you when he was a strigoi? To suggest something was wrong with him.
Delilah:(began to tear up) He said he didn't know what he ever saw in me. Lincoln said i am the biggest mistake in his life.
Her confession stunned luan.
Luan:You know lincoln didn't mean any of that. He was just angry.
Delilah:I starting to doubt that even more than ever. He started do some changes. Lincoln began to wear a coat more often. He now developed a short temper.
Luan:Oh.
She Replied not knowing what to say. Delilah look directly at luans eyes seeing her uneven pupils.
Delilah:Your lucky you have awesome looking eyes. But me if someone saw these are my real eyes people will flip out. They called me freak,marilyn manson, a bug.
Luan:Look i have i told you the story about how i sung at a concert in memory of mick swagger.
Delilah:No?
Luan:I sung starman dressed like the thin white duke. I did a perfect bowie impression but how i got chosen to sing was because of my eyes. That boost my confidence alot.
Luan explained. A idea popped into delilah's mind. She began to smile from ear to ear.
Delilah:I got a idea. But first i got do something.
Luan:What you gonna do?
Delilah:Im gonna be myself. By the way is luna home.
Luan:Yes she is but…
But before she could finished her sentence delilah vanished into thin air. She reappeared in luna and luan's room. Luna was sitting on her bed strumming her guitar.
Luna:Sup delilah!
Delilah: Luna i have a idea. It involves me making a music video. But i need a few people to play some instruments.
She told her. Luna put down her guitar giving the teenager her undivided attention.
Luna: I don't have a band anyone to help play instruments anymore.
Delilah:Oh?
Delilah replied as she hung her head in disappointment.
Luna:Let me finish. I dont have anyone to play instruments anymore that are human. I met some people in the underworld.
Delilah:Really. Who are they.
She asked luna.
Luna: well ones named tyz but his nickname is kaard he's a wendigo. There's Draco shes a demon like you. But she's not a cambion. And finally there's luciana she's a kitsune i think. They are awesome and talented musicians.
Delilah once again smiled.
Luna:What you gonna sing love?
Delilah: im gonna sing dont look back in anger,the great pretender and finally imagine.
Luna:Why those song dee dee?
Luna asked in curiosity.
Delilah:Because they are reference to how i feel at the moment. Don't look back in anger is symbolism to forgiving other who treated me bad and called me names. Basically i'm not looking back in anger.
Luna:What about the great pretender.
Delilah:That represents me pretending that my real eyes are fake. In the song im showing who i actually am.
Luna:What about imagine.
Delilah:It supposed to express my message to the world. That i want to live in it in peace without persecution. After i'm done with the video im gonna upload it on youtube.
Im gonna tell the world these are my real eyes.
Luna's smile then faded as delilah explained her plan to her.
Luna:Why do you wanna do that.
Delilah:I'm so sick of everyone calling me a freak and other types of names. Not to mention im sick of keeping secret.So this music video is me saying this is me. If dont like then fuck you. So what do you say will you help me.
Luna was still trying comprehend what she said.
She realised if delilah tells the world monsters do exist. Then it will be all bad. But at that moment luna flashed back to the time where lynn was calling lincoln a unholy monster. Then she remembered the time when she talked bad about delilah.
This whole vampire secret thing had been stressing everyone out including her. Luna quickly made up her mind.
Luna:Lets do it. We all wanna show that not everyone's the same. We both need to tell the world that every creature bleeds and feel the same. So when do you wanna start.
Delilah:Tomorrow at 3 am. We will play and record the music in a studio at my house. And we will make the video hopefully on the same day too.
Delilah stated with excitement.
Luna:What about lincoln?
Lincoln:What about me?
The two girls turned toward the door to see lincoln standing there.
Luna:Sup little bro.
Lincoln:Look i need to talk to delilah for a moment.
Luna:um sure.
He then snapped his finger teleporting him and her to his bedroom.
Delilah:What you wanna talk about.
Lincoln:Look what did yesterday was horrible. I didn't mean to do any of that. You know i love you.
A whole lot.
Delilah:You sure have a weird way of showing it.
She said turning her back to him.
Delilah:Something's eating you up inside. What you turned into yesterday was a strigoi the romanian vampire.
Delilah angrily explained.
Lincoln:So whats your point ? i turned into another vampire big deal.
Delilah:(yelling) You idiot if you read up on stuff you would know that the strigoi is a unrested or troubled spirit coming back from the dead.
Lincoln:Oh.
He said taking a sit on his bed. She takes a sit right next to him putting her arm around. His shoulder.
Delilah:Tell me what's going on with you for real this time.
Lincoln:Okay i will.
