So, I haven't updated in forever because I've been lazy and this chapter doesn't really make up for it cuz it's sucky in my opinon. But enjoy. Or not.
SL: *Rolls on the floor all secret agent like* My target is in sight.
Evra: Not anymore! *Picks me up* No Steve for you!
SL: Evra, you meanie! Put me down!
Chibi Steve: I want my pot roast.
Xina: *Pops up out of nowhere* SL-nee-sama doesn't own The Saga of Darren Shan or any of it's characters.
"I want to know what you did to Xan and I want to know now." Daryl said, folding her arms.
"I told you! I just taught her how to be nice!" Evra replied, rolling his eyes.
"Xan wouldn't be that nice to someone even if they got hit by a truck," Daryl half-joked. "You used one of her potions, didn't you?"
Evra laughed, won over by how cute Daryl looked when she pouted. "Fine, you're right."
"I want you to undo it."
Evra frowned. "Why?"
"Because she's just...not Xan when she's like this."
Neither of them said anything for a moment then.
"Daryl, you're not...in love with her, are you?"
"Of course not!" Daryl cried, trying to hide her blush. "She's just my friend! Of course I'm not in love with her!"
"Then who are you in love with?" Evra asked shyly.
"No-one!" Daryl lied. "Why are you asking me all these questions anyway?"
Evra shrugged. "Just curious."
"Mom and Dad were actually upset when I left?" Xan gasped.
"Of course, you're their daughter." Xina replied.
"But I didn't think that they...you know, liked me much." Xan shrugged.
Xina seemed taken aback for a moment. "I know they got mad at you sometimes but they always loved you, Xan...and they still do. Which is why you should come back home with me."
Xina wished she could take back her words when she saw the angry look on Xan's face.
"I knew it..." Xan whispered. "I knew it!" This time she said it a little louder. "I knew you'd try and take me back home! You think that I can just go home and Mom and Dad are going to welcome me with open arms! You've always lived in a fantasy word, Xina. Where everything is perfect. Life doesn't work that way! Mom and Dad don't want me, they never did and they never will. That's why I ran away. And if you think that you can fix all that then...you're more stupid than I thought."
