Chpt.2
Dad sat at the table with his laptop placed in front f him. I still was unsure what he was doing. If he was looking at cars, he was taking forever finding some he liked, and if he was hacking government files, they must've had a billion fire walls.
I sat across from him, and was reading some depressing book titled "The Cries of Mary Beth Lou." it was a bizarre boring book. However it was addicting. I would have to tell dad about that. He would most likely believe that it was not an accident and go on a rampage to find out how a book so boring and depressing be so addicting. It was most likely a case of mind wash. If so I really shouldn't of been reading it. But there I sat. continuing to read a possibly life threatening book.
Anyway, dad was okay with me wanting to be a hero, as long as I told him where I would be. He wasn't exactly keen on the idea of Jess being with me, but he rather have a person with me, instead of leaving me out by myself. I was surprised that he was actually letting me do this. He was so paranoid about everything, but he allows me to actually be a hero. However he did call Mr. Travis (a.k.a the Crimson Avenger) and told him about his son's activities, and mom still didn't have a clue, and we planned to keep it that way.
When I reached the eighteenth chapter of my book, mom came walking into the living room, back from work.
"Hi mom." I smiled, not gazing up from my book. There was a long pause, and dad was still oblivious to mom's presence. "dad." I whispered, and he looked up from his work.
"Oh. Hello Helena." mom didn't say anything. She only had a sour expression on her face, which meant she was mad about something. Dad and I exchanged nervous looks. She brewed herself some coffee, then sat at the table with us.
"I was having a good day today. Everything seemed to be perfect. Until I started listening to News Radio." she began.
Oh crap. This can't be good. I thought to myself.
"The reporter was talking about two teenaged vigilantes near our area. I brushed it off, but then I got a call from Mr. Travis. He wanted to tell me that he would allow his son to carry on being Blood Boy as long as Eclipse was with him. He then told me who Eclipse was."
"Her idea!" dad stated pointing at me/
"His spare Fedora!" I countered, pointing at him.
"I don't want pointing fingers!" mom yelled. We quickly lowered our hands.
"So I'm taking it you're mad." I said sheepishly.
"No. I was mad when your father sterilized the house and ruined half the furniture. I was mad when you constructed a stink bomb in the third grade, and stuck it under your teachers desk. I was mad when your father crashed my motorcycle. I was made when you crashed my motorcycle. But now? Now I'm livid!" she exclaimed.
"Well… these fire walls aren't going to crack themselves. I will be upstairs working…"
"Yah. And I gotta finish a history paper. You know how Mrs. Levitan is very strict with return dates…" I stated. Dad and I both rose from the table and were about to make a run for it to make it upstairs, bur mom was able to stop us.
"Both of you. Sit down." she commanded, and we knew that it would be in our best interest to obey her.
"Carmela René Sage. Do you understand how dangerous it is to be messing with gun dealers. You could've been killed." mom explained.
"But I'm fifteen. I can handle myself. Besides, Jess was with me. We had each other's backs." I tried to explain.
"And dragging Jess into this too? I can't believe his father and your father agreed to this." Mom hissed looking at dad.
"Now wait a moment. I didn't say she could go out and do this, she did it on her own." Dad stated.
"Yes. But once you caught them, you were going to let them carry on." she stated.
"Helena. We live in a safe town. There is small crime, it is not like they are going against people who want to rule the world." dad persuaded.
"Out of all people, you actually want his to happen" mom exclaimed.
"I know she can protect herself." dad stated. After what seemed like hours of debating, mom finally gave in.
"Fine Vic. She can do this. But she needs to be with Jess, and I need t know where she will be at all times." she stated.
"consider it done." I stated.
"Good." mom said, pleased with herself. "Now I'm going to bed. And Vic?" she questioned.
"Yes?"
"You're sleeping on the couch tonight." she stated.
"But…"
"You're sleeping on the couch tonight." she said sternly, then walked upstairs.
"Wow." I stated.
"Don't make me regret sticking up for you." dad stated.
"I won't." I grinned.
"Good. Because you're walking to score tomorrow." he smiled. I let out a sigh.
Darn it. But I nodded my head. "Good Night dad."
"Good night baby girl." he replied. I walked upstairs and collapsed on my bed. Knowing my luck with dad not driving me to school, it would most likely be raining.
* * *
My alarm clock sounded, and I groggily turned it off. I could hear the pitter patter of rain hitting the roof. I couldn't help but think,
Bingo.
Hope you enjoyed! Please review!!!!
