Here's chapter 2, a quick note before hand.

In Love is Worth Fighting For I meant to mention that the heroes ages were different in the T.V show, so

I'm going to describe them here:

Theresa (in LIWFF- 18, in 5 Years Later-23)

Jay (In LIWFF- 18, in 5 Years later-23)

Archie (In LIWFF- 17, in 5 Years later-22)

Atlanta (In LIWFF- 18 in 5 Years later-23)

Herry (In LIWFF-17- in 5 Years later -22)

Neil (In LIWFF -17- in 5 Years later-22)

Odie (In LIWFF- 17-In 5 years later, still 17, since he doesn't age)

These ages will make more sense as the story goes on.

Now on with chapter 2.

Chapter 2

Chloe sighed and wiped away more tears as she watched one of her best friends, Sarah, walk out the door of the orphanage, never to return, she had just been adopted, and Sarah was the same age as Chloe, they were both thirteen, so it was very rare for children of their age to be adopted, parents only ever wanted babies, so of course Chloe assumed that Sarah and herself would be in the orphanage forever, and when they finally turned eighteen they would run away, and start a life together, however now Chloe was going to be stuck in the orphanage for what looked like forever.

"Chloe?" Came Sandra's voice, the owner of the orphanage, Chloe liked her, she was nice, and actually treated her with respect, after all most of the other children in the orphanage had never known their parents, Chloe on the other hand had watched her Mother, named Anna, be killed in front of her very eyes, by a man in a black suit, luckily, or unluckily depending on your point of view, Chloe ran away to safetyand Chloe had ran for days, trying to stay off the roads, in case that strange man had been following her.

She never stopped, she just kept running, stopping every once in a while to grab a drink from a stream, or to eat some wild berries, or mushrooms, her Mother had taught her which ones were good to eat, and which ones were poison. After surviving in the wild for about 6 or 7 months, Chloe was sure that she would be able to survive for the rest of her life in the wild, she had taught herself how to hunt, and even made a weapon out of a rock, and a stick. However one day while she was cooking a bird that she had killed over a fire, a bear had shown up to her make shift camp site, and while Chloe could have probably fought it off easily, her weapon was sitting by a tree behind her, and Chloe knew better then to run from a bear, so she took a small step back, trying to not intimidate the bear, luckily that worked, and she took another step backwards, and then another, so far so good she had thought to herself, as she took another step, before cursing as she tripped over a root that she had forgotten was sticking out of the ground, her fall caused the bear to turn growl at her, before running full blast at her. Chloe closed her eyes not wanting to watch the cause of her death running closer, and closer to her, however then everything changed, and when Chloe didn't hear the bear running at her anymore she risked a look, and almost had a heart attack when she saw a big strapping man shoot an arrow right at the bears heart, hitting it dead on, Chloe watched dumbfounded as the bear fell backwards.

"Are you alright?" The strange man had asked as he walked closer to her, Chloe stood up never taking her eyes off the man, he was older, maybe in his mid-fifties, and he had a long beard, and he was tall, he must have been well over six feet, but then again Chloe at the time had only been six, so of course he looked tall to her, now she almost came to his chin, so she didn't find him all that tall anymore. After he had introduced himself as Chris, he had taken Chloe, who was too tired to resist, to the orphanage and that's where she had met Sandra, Chris' wife, who once she had learned of what happened to Chloe's Mother, had taken her under her wing, and for the past seven years, and now that Chloe was thirteen she wished that she still had her Mother more so then ever, since there were things that she needed to know, but she had managed this long, by herself, and Chloe was sure that she could last three more years until she was eighteen, and she would finally be out of here.

"Are you alright?" Sandra said sitting down beside Chloe on the bed, and touching her shoulder.

"Yeah." Chloe said looking out the window as Sarah got into the car, and drove out of sight, to her new life.

"I know it's hard, but you'll be adopted too." Sandra said.

Chloe wanted to roll her eyes but she fought against the urge, Susan had gotten lucky, and the couple that had adopted her had wanted a teenager, that was a brunette, with brown eyes, and had dimples, and a petite figure, which is exactly what Susan was, not like Chloe who was a strawberry blonde, with blue eyes, and had no dimples when she smiled, or had more of a muscular build, Chloe wasn't like a guy by any stretch of the imagination, but she did enjoy working out, so she was a little bit more built then the average girl.

"I kind of want to be alone." Chloe said not meeting Sandra's gaze.

"Alright." Sandra said kissing Chloe's head, before walking to the door, before she turned the light off she turned back around to face her, "try and get some sleep."

"I will." Chloe said laying down, to make Sandra happy, although she knew that she would be getting no sleep tonight, without Sarah that meant that she would be the oldest orphan in the whole place, and that would also mean that she would have no one to talk to, sighing Chloe looked up at the moon as a tear escaped from her eyes, "I miss you Mom." She whispered as she closed her eyes letting more tears escape.

As Anna lead Odie to a place where he could feed she couldn't help but look at the moon, sighing she thought of her daughter, Chloe, Anna used to love watching the moon with her, sometimes it was the only way that Chloe would fall asleep, Anna would hum to her and rock her until finally Chloe fell asleep on her chest, and sometimes in her arms, how Anna wished that she could see her daughter one last time, to tell her that she was fine, well as fine as she could be being a vampire… but Anna couldn't risk hurting her.

"Are we almost there?" Odie asked sounding annoyed, although Anna was surprised that he wasn't attacking her, since Odie had just woken up and he would be dying of thirst, and usually when vampire's first wake up they can't control themselves, how is Odie able to? Anna thought to herself.

"We're almost there" Anna finally said, looking at Odie for a brief moment, the joys of being a vampire was at least they didn't have to watch where they were going, since they couldn't get hurt anyways, apparently Odie hadn't figured this out yet since he was looking straight ahead, never taking his eyes off where he was going.

"Odie, look at me." Anna commanded.

"Are you insane?" Odie asked fear in his voice.

"Trust me."

"How can I trust you when you haven't even let me feed yet?!" Odie asked, and Anna realized he was really mad now.

"Odie, we're almost there" Anna said looking ahead again, the clearing that she was looking for was just minutes away, "but haven't you noticed that you're not getting winded running?"

As Odie thought about this he realized that Anna was right, and he was able to talk while running something that he had never been able to do before "yeah I do." Odie said after a very brief moment, "I can think faster!" Odie said sounding excited.

"Good" Came Cronus' voice from the necklace, "we're going to need his brains when it comes time to break me out." Cronus sounded very pleased with himself, Anna was glad that only she could hear the necklace, since she was sure that if Odie had heard what Cronus had just said then he would never go along with it, after all he was, and probably still is, a hero.

"OK Odie, do you see that clearing up a head?" Anna asked.

Odie looked straight ahead, before nodding.

"That's where we're going." Anna said watching as Odie's pace picked up.

After Odie ran through the clearing he stopped dead in his tracks, since there was a baseball game going on, and as Odie looked at the people, he forgot all about the thirst.

"Odie, what's wrong?" Anna asked stopping beside him.

"I can't…" Odie began before running back through the clearing, Anna hesitated before following him.

"Odie!" She called trying to catch up to him, but to Anna's surprise Odie was running at an extremely fast pace.

"Odie stop!" Anna called, and finally Odie stopped, not meeting Anna's gaze.

"Odie, what is going on?!" Anna demanded, knowing that Cronus wasn't going to like this.

"I can't…" Odie stated again.

"Can't what?!" Anna demanded.

"Those people have families, they have lives!" Odie cried, "I can't kill them!" Odie said shaking his head, "I'd sooner starve to death."

Anna couldn't believe what she had just heard; she had never met a vampire that could resist the smell of human blood, "there is another way." Anna said thinking fast on her feet, she knew that Cronus wasn't going to like what she was about to say but, she refused to make Odie do something that he didn't want to.

"What's that?" Odie asked curiosity evident on his face.

"Take a deep breath." Anna commanded.

Odie took a breath, and at first all he could smell was the human blood, he let out a small snarl.

"Focus Odie, not on the humans" Anna said upon hearing Odie's snarl.

Odie tried again, this time he smelled something different, it had a gamey smell to it, almost like it could be an animal, when Odie opened his eyes he looked at Anna, clearly she smelled it too.

"Follow your instincts, Odie." Anna said turning Odie in the direction of the smell, "you can do it." She whispered in his ear, as Odie took another deep breath before taking off in the direction of the smell.

As Odie ran deeper into the woods, it didn't take him long to figure out what he had been smelling, since he found a deer drinking from a river, a few minutes later, Odie hesitated for a moment looking at the deer, jumping into the air, landing on the deer's back, breaking it, Odie smiled as he picked the deer up like it weighed nothing and began sucking the sweet blood out of the its neck.

Anna watched as Odie finished off the deer, she had fed before she had woken Odie up, so that she wouldn't kill him when she had to drink his blood, once Odie was done with the deer he dropped it before looking at Anna, with a confused look on his face.

"Odie, are you alright?" Anna asked running beside him.

"Yeah." Odie said looking down at the deer.

"It's OK Odie." Anna said putting an arm around him.

"I feel bad that I killed an innocent deer." Odie admitted, "but I'm glad that it wasn't a human."

"Did it quench your thirst?" Anna asked curiously, she had never tried drinking an animals' blood before, when she had been turned she fed on a human and had never looked back.

"Yeah." Odie said smiling, "hey Anna, does this mean that I can live on animals' blood?" Odie asked sounding hopeful.

"I guess." Anna said before looking up at the sky, "we should get back it's almost dawn, when we wake back up then we'll see how you feel, OK?" Anna asked.

"Wake up?" Odie asked confusion evident on his face.

"Come on." Anna said as she began running again, Odie looked down at the deer one last time, guilt washing over him, "I'm sorry" he whispered before running after Anna.

Theresa held her breath as Persephone and herself walked into Hera's room, where Hera was talking to Zeus, upon hearing the door open they stopped their conversation and looked at both of them.

"Theresa." Hera said surprised as she stood up from behind her desk, Zeus remained sitting. "What are you doing here? I assumed you would be getting ready for the prom." Hera said before finally noticing the concerned look on Persephone's face, "what's wrong?" Hera asked as she looked at Theresa, and Theresa wondered if the same confusion she was feeling was written on her face.

"Hera" Persephone said before running over to Hera and whispering in her ear, Theresa looked at Zeus who shrugged, "girls" he mouthed to Theresa before rolling his eyes, and in spite of herself Theresa smiled, although it didn't last long since not a minute later, Persephone and Hera both turned to face her, and the looks on their faces told Theresa that something must be wrong.

"Theresa" Hera began, "in your vision you say that you changed into something?"

"Yes." Theresa said remembering how she had all of a sudden found herself on all fours, and had thrown Odie off of her.

"You also saw Odie, and you think that he was a vampire?"

"I'm more then certain that he was" Theresa said remembering how Odie had had the blood around his mouth.

"That's not good…" Zeus said trailing off as he looked at Hera.

"No it's not." Hera said sitting back in the chair.

"Why?" Theresa demanded.

"Theresa, in a few weeks the planets are going to be aligning again…" Persephone finally stated.

"What?!" Theresa said feeling light headed, Persephone noticed this and rushed over and grabbed her arm before she could fall over.

"We're going to do all we can to make sure that Cronus stays in Tarturas, but if Odie is in fact a vampire then that's going to be difficult…" Hera said looking at Zeus.

"We have to make sure he doesn't get out!" Theresa said almost yelling, she couldn't go through that again she just couldn't, not when her life was almost perfect, and she had just gotten over, well kind of over, Odie's death.

"And we will." Persephone said in a final tone.

"How?" Theresa asked.

Persephone looked at Hera who nodded, Persephone nodded back before looking at Theresa again, "Theresa, you're a shape shifter."

"I'm a what?" Theresa asked shocked.

"Theresa, in your vision you changed into a werewolf, you have the power to do that."

"But why didn't I have the power to do that when I was a teenager?" Theresa asked not fully believing what she had just been told.

"Because your powers are growing, you've always had the power to, but you weren't strong enough when you were a teenager, now that you're twenty three, your sixth sense is much stronger." Persephone said Theresa couldn't believe what she had just heard; she could turn into a werewolf?

"So how do I turn into one?" Theresa said unable to say the word werewolf.

"That's what we're going to have to figure out, Persephone will help you." Hera said smiling at her.

"Of course I will!" Persephone said excitedly hugging Theresa, "it'll be just like old times!"

"And when we do find out, hopefully it'll be before the planets align, we're going to have to talk to the Oracle." Hera said.

"But not tonight." Zeus said noticing that Theresa looked over whelmed, standing up and walked over to her placing a hand on her shoulder, "go home, and get yourself ready for tonight."

"OK." Theresa said as she walked out of the room and back down the hall, once she made it to her car Theresa broke down and started crying, she had just gotten her life back on track, and now she had this to worry about, but Theresa knew that she couldn't tell her friends, well not tonight, she wouldn't ruin their fun, since this was the prom that they hadn't gotten when they graduated, plus this would be the first time in at least three years that they would all be together again, and Theresa wouldn't ruin that. Taking a deep breath Theresa wiped away tears before looking at the clock on her dash board, she had just over a half hour before Jay would be at her pace to pick her up.

"Looks like I'm going to be fashionably late." Theresa said smiling to herself; she was always running late for one reason or another, so she was sure that Jay wouldn't mind waiting… again.

As Theresa pulled into her driveway she was pleasantly surprised to see that Jay wasn't there yet, "perfect" she said to herself, running inside, nearly bumping into her father who she wasn't expecting to see in the foyer.

"Oops sorry Dad." Theresa said forcing a smile.

"Where have you been?" He asked looking kind of annoyed, sometimes Theresa thought that he forgot that he was twenty three, and not a child anymore.

"I just went out for a drive, didn't you get my note?"

"Yeah I did." Bill said taking it out of his pocket, "pretty long drive though, don't you have that prom reunion thing tonight?"

"Yeah I do, in fact I do need to go get ready." Theresa said kissing her Dad on the cheek, running for the stairs, Bill watched as she disappeared upstairs and heard her door shut, smiling he shook his head, before walking into the living room sitting down on the couch turning the T.V on.

As Jay pulled into Theresa's driveway, he began feeling sick as the nerves came over him, what would he do if Bill said no? Or worse what happens if Theresa said no? How would he react?

"It's OK Jay." He whispered to himself, "Think of all the things that you've been through." Taking a deep breath Jay felt into his pocket, to make sure the ring was still there, smiling when he felt the box; Jay got out of the car, and walked to the door, at a much slower pace than usual. After Jay made it to the door he knocked on it, and held his breath as the door knob turned and the door opened revealing Bill.

For what felt like an eternity neither one of them spoke, finally Jay cleared his throat, in hopes that his voice wouldn't go high pitched like it always did when he was nervous. "Hello sir." Jay said happy that his voice stayed at the right pitch, but even Jay could hear that he sounded nervous, and if he could hear it Bill could definitely.

"Jay." Bill said after a moment stepping back and opening the door wider so that Jay could step in, once he did both Bill and Jay stood in the foyer awkwardly.

"Uh can I talk to you for a second, sir?" Jay said a few moments later.

"Yes, but let me go see if Theresa's ready." Bill said not waiting for a response before walking up the stairs, Jay watched taken a little a back, Bill and him had never exactly been that close but usually he was more talkative then that.

Bill didn't even bother knocking on Theresa's door, he instead ran into his office locking the door and leaning on it. Bill knew exactly what Jay wanted to ask him, he had seen the signs for the past few weeks, Jay had been spending a lot more time with Theresa, and they had been talking about possibly moving out together, and even as Jay had walked into the house Bill had seen the nervous look on Jay's face, it was the face that every man had before they asked the father for permission to marry their daughter, Bill had gone through it when he was going to marry his wife, Elizabeth. As Bill thought of Elizabeth he had to fight tears, how happy and excited she would be that Theresa was going to be getting married, she would be handling it a lot better than Bill was. Sighing he walked to his desk, and looked at a picture of Theresa and himself dancing, back when she was seven, how Bill missed it when she was a child, he had missed quite a bit of her growing up since he had taken a lot of business trips, and after the death of Elizabeth he was all alone and was trying to keep the business going, and be a father, sometimes he wondered if he had done a good job, but as Bill looked at Theresa, now that she was a young woman, he knew that he did, and now it was time for her to start her new life with Jay. Sitting down at his desk Bill looked at Elizabeth, before pouring himself a small glass of Whiskey, raising it up to the picture, "well Elizabeth our little girl is getting married" Bill said before taking a drink.

Jay walked into the living room looking around at the pictures of Theresa, and there were quite a few of them, especially since she was an only child, in one of the photos she was dressed up like a princess, wearing a tiara, and in another one she was having a tea party with her stuffed animals. As Jay kept looking he smiled as he came across a family portrait of Bill, Theresa, and her Mother, Jay picked it up to examine it closer, in it Theresa couldn't have been more than ten, and Jay realized that that would have been the last family portrait where it would be all three of them, since her Mother had died when Theresa had just turned eleven, putting the picture down Jay looked at the next one down the line, it was one that Jay had seen numerous times, especially since it was her background on her phone, it was a picture of Theresa and her father dancing. Smiling Jay remembered that Theresa had told him that after her Mother had died; dancing with her father was the only thing that cheered her up, they had always been close but after the death of her Mother they became even closer. Jay, was sure that Bill must have known why he was here, well to pick up Theresa for the prom, but also Bill must have noticed how nervous Jay was, since he knew that he wasn't hiding that very well, and that's probably why Bill disappeared upstairs, Jay had never even heard him knock on Theresa's door. Smiling again Jay leaned into look at another picture, and was taken aback as he heard Bill's voice, he had been so wrapped up in his thoughts that he hadn't heard him come back downstairs.

"Ain't she something, son?" Bill asked as he walked over and stood beside Jay.

Smiling Jay looked at the pictures one last time before looking at Bill, "yeah she's quite a woman."

At hearing that Bill fought back tears, it was hard to think of his little girl as a woman, in his eyes she was still the same little girl in the pictures that Jay had been looking at, the same girl who enjoyed dressing up like a princess, who would stand on his toes and dance with him around the living room, but it was true Theresa was twenty three, she wasn't a little girl anymore.

"Sir, may I ask you a question?" Jay asked after a moment.

"Sure." Bill said walking over to the couch and sitting down, he didn't want to let Jay know that he knew what the question was, he would much rather be asked for his daughter's hand in marriage, and he was quite impressed that Jay was willing to ask him, he was a good guy.

Jay hesitated before sitting on the couch across from Bill, for a few minutes neither one of them said anything.

"What's your question?" Bill asked ending the awkward silence.

"Well sir," Jay began taking a deep breath, "I'd like to ask you for Theresa's hand in marriage." Jay said hoping that he didn't talk too fast since he wasn't sure if he would be able to repeat himself.

Bill eyed Jay before crossing his arms, "well Jay why do you want to marry my daughter?" Bill asked sounding like he was interviewing someone for a job rather than talking to his future son in law, but he wanted to make sure that Jay was truly ready to marry his one and only daughter.

"Well…" Jay began, "I love her, sir, whenever I'm having a bad day simply holding her in my arms makes everything better, she's my everything, and I can't imagine my life without her, I love her more than anything else in this world, and I just want to start the next chapter of my life with her, and I never want to go a day without Theresa, I want to have a family, and go on more adventures, and I want us to grow old together." Jay said smiling, "I love her more than words can explain, and I don't know what I would ever do if I lost her, she is my life."

As Jay finished Bill examined him for a moment before standing up holding out his hand, Jay stood up taking his hand and shaking it, "I give you my blessing Jay, I don't think she could do any better then you." Bill said smiling.

"Thank you, sir." Jay said smiling and trying to stop himself from jumping up and down.

"One more thing, Jay." Bill said causing Jay to get nervous again, what would Bill ask of him?

"Stop with the sir stuff, if you're going to be my son in law you can call me Bill." Bill said smiling.

"Oh of course sir… uh Bill." Jay said trying to get used to calling him by his first name, laughing Bill and Jay both looked as one of the maids walked into the room.

"Ah Lucy" Bill said nodding his head at her.

"Good evening sir" Lucy said nodding at Bill, before smiling at Jay, "Theresa's ready whenever you are."

"Perfect thank you, Lucy" Bill said "tell her we'll be ready in just a moment." Lucy nodded and walked out of the room, Bill then turned to Jay putting a hand on his shoulder, "you ready, son?"

"Yes." Jay said as he and Bill walked back into the foyer, and Jay walked to the little table beside the door picking up the corsage that he had bought for Theresa.

"Here she comes!" Lucy called as Jay heard Theresa's door open, he heard her soft footsteps walking to the stairs, and as she emerged at the top of the stairs Jay felt his heart skip a beat, Theresa was wearing a floor length, form fitting dark blue dress, that had sparkles all over it, making it glimmer, her hair was in a bun, and she had a small tiara in it, laughing to himself Jay couldn't help but remember the photo of her dressed up like a princess, now she was a princess.

As Theresa walked down the stairs the only thing she could think of was that she hoped that she didn't fall, while she could walk in heels she hadn't actually practiced walking in the dress and heels. Once she made it to the bottom of the stairs she let out a small sigh of relief, and smiled as Jay walked over to her, pulling Theresa into a hug before staring into each other's eyes.

"You look beautiful." Jay said in awe, he always thought Theresa looked beautiful but she looked even more so tonight.

"And you look very handsome." Theresa said smiling.

Jay couldn't help himself as he leaned his head down until their lips met, which since Theresa was wearing heels wasn't much.

"Ahem." Bill said clearing his throat, causing Jay and Theresa to stop kissing and look at him, "shall I leave you two alone?" Bill asked laughing.

"No Daddy." Theresa said blushing.

Jay could feel himself blushing as well, but he lifted up Theresa's hand kissing it before putting the corsage on her wrist, Theresa smiled as she looked at it, he had gotten a pretty simple corsage but it matched her dress perfectly, it was blue and white, "oh Jay it's perfect!" Theresa said as Lucy walked over holding the boutonniere, she had gotten for Jay.

"I hope I know how to do this" Theresa said laughing.

"Just don't stab me with it." Jay said laughing as well; Theresa focused and managed to put the boutonniere on Jay without stabbing him.

"We'd better get going." Jay said a few moments later.

"Alright." Theresa said turning to face Bill, who was fighting back tears.

"Jay, why don't you go start the car?" Theresa asked, Jay nodded walking outside.

"Dad, are you OK?" Theresa asked, Bill after Jay had closed the door.

"Yeah." Bill said smiling at Theresa, "you just look so beautiful and you reminded me of your Mother."

"I miss her too Dad." Theresa said as fighting back tears, so that she wouldn't ruin her make-up, Bill pulled her into a hug.

"I love you sweetheart."

"I love you too Dad." Theresa said smiling up at him, as she remembered when she was a little girl and she used to play dress up, and how she used to dance with him, but that was years ago. Theresa was so glad that, thanks to her friends she and her father were still alive.

"You'd better get going." Bill said hugging Theresa once more.

"Alright, I'll see you later." Theresa said as she walked out the door and got into Jay's car. Bill watched as Jay and Theresa kissed again, before Jay drove out of the driveway and drove out of sight, smiling Bill closed the door and walked back into the living room sitting on the couch as he thought of the night that he had asked Elizabeth to marry him, and the night that Theresa was born.

That's the end of Chapter 2, I hope that you liked it.
