Chapter 7: The Fight
Song's POV:
My sister and I arrived into town and there was a lot of people there. I overheard some people say that Vlad has a daughter while someone else was saying that was not true. I did not pay attention at all. River and I continued walking until we came to a stop. It was a store.
"Hey, sis, why are we stopping?" I said to River. I noticed that she was looking at a dress through a window. It seems like the entire character of Danny did not exist at all. I was able to break her out of her daze by pushing her out of the view of the dress. She laughed at what I did.
"Why don't we go and get something to eat? How does that sound?" Before I could answer, my stomach growled and River looked down. All of a sudden, she started laughing and I laughed with her. We went to the nearby food place, which so happens to be the Nasty Burger.
"Yes, may I please have the number two, small order, and a number one, small order as well?" River ordered for me. I could tell that she was watching her figure.
"That will be $10.56." I saw River grab a wallet from her pocket and give the person behind the register a credit card. The cashier was frightened as soon as he saw the name on the card.
"Are you Vlad Master's daughter?" Oh great. It looks like my sister and I are not going to be able to eat in peace.
River's POV:
"Are you Vlad Master's daughter?" As soon as the cashier said that, I felt all eyes in the Nasty Burger turn to me. There were the teenagers in there, some adults, and some kids as well. I knew that they were going to be bombarding me very soon with questions. I was right. The first person that ran to my side was Paulina Sanchez.
"Oh my god. I can't believe that you are Vlad Master's daughter. I am so jealous of you. We should, like, totally hang out."
"I am sorry, but I can't. I am here just to eat a nice lunch with my sister, Song." As soon as I said that she was my sister, even more people clamored around me. There was one person that I did recognize in the crowd of people that surrounded me, Jazz.
"Come on, sis. Let's blow this place. I do not want to be around this many people." I grabbed Song by the hand and we left the Nasty Burger. I knew for a fact that there was one person that was following me, Jazz. As soon as we were a good distance away, I turned away and spoke to Jazz.
"So, Jazz, how are you doing?" I was curious as to how she was doing. I still cared about her.
"Danny, I mean River, there is something that I have to tell you. Our parents, or more accurately now, my parents, are going to burst into Vlad's mansion sometime this week and take you back by force. They are, to use their exact words, 'Danny is going to be our little boy, not a girl.'. So they plan on taking you and making you to take off all of your clothes and the suit that you are wearing."
"Jazz, I am not even wearing a suit anymore. This is my real skin." I could tell that she was confused. I told her how Vlad, my dad, was able to make a machine that made me into a real girl. I even showed her that I was not even wearing a voice modulator anymore. I saw her smile as I was telling her all the good things that Vlad did for both Song and I.
"River, I am glad that your dad is treating you nicely. I wish I could just run away from my parents. It seems that they never understand that is too different. They never understood you at all, and they barely understand me either." I noticed that Jazz was about to cry.
Jazz's POV:
I was crying as I was talking to River and her sister. I tried to fight the tears, but I was unable to.
"Jazz, please do not cry. I will tell you what. Why don't you just leave the Fenton's and just come live with Vlad, Song, and I? It will be fun. I guarantee it." I looked at River and smiled. I looked at her sister, which I now heard that her name is Song. I thought about it, but I would have to go back and get my stuff.
"River, Song, the rest of my belongings is back at the house. I am going to take you up on your offer. Let's go." The three of us went to my house to get my belongings. As of today, I am no longer a Fenton. I am a Masters. I looked down at the two girls that were walking in front of me and I just smiled. I knew that a fight was going to happen between River and my parents, I mean, the Fenton's. I saw the house in the distance. As we continued to walk towards it, I felt an uneasy knot in my stomach.
"Jazz, it is okay. We are here for you. Don't worry at all." I smiled at River's words of confidence that she gave me. We arrived at the front door. I knew for a fact that there was going to be screaming. As I opened the door, I noticed my mother standing in the living room.
Maddie's POV:
I saw Jazz open up the door and I noticed two other girls with her. One of them I did not recognize at all, but the other one I did. The other girl was, or shall I say is, my son. I just cringed at the thought knowing that Danny wants to be a girl. He must not be in his right state of mind.
"Hello, Jazz, Danny, and whoever you are. Jazz, Danny, sit. The other girl can leave."
"No she won't Mrs. Fenton. She is my sister and she is staying." That caught me off-guard highly. Danny has another sister. No doubt she is the other daughter of Vlad Masters. I just looked at Danny with disgust.
"Danny, get upstairs now and take that shit off. You are staying here young man." I looked at Danny and he did not move at all.
"What did I tell you? Get upstairs now and take that shit off now." Danny just kept on sitting there.
"Why aren't you listening to me?" Danny got up from where he was sitting and looked at me.
"Well, Mrs. Fenton, perhaps you do not know this, but I am no longer your son. I am Vlad Masters daughter, River. I am no longer a boy. I am a girl. I should have been a girl. I am not even attracted to girls at all. You never understood me when I lived here, but at least my 'father' listens to me and pays attention to me. You hardly ever do. You always tinker with your inventions and always buy stuff for your inventions and you barely buy any food at all. The only food that is bought or brought into this house was either bought by me when I lived here or by Jazz. You always make food filled with ecto-plasm. I am surprised that you are not dead yet from the food that you have created yourself. And to top everything off, you should not have been a mother at all." There stood Danny, no correction, River, almost huffing and puffing from the rant that she gave me.
"How dare you talk to me like that? I demand that you take that shit off now." All of a sudden, I heard laughing coming from Danny.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. You just do not get it, do you? I am no longer a boy. I am a fully functioning girl so therefore; I am not a person that you can boss around, Madeline Fenton. Jazz let's go and get your stuff. We are out of here." I could not believe it. How is it possible for a boy to be transformed into a girl? I kept on thinking and there was no way, scientifically, possible at all, but someone must have done it. I did not pay attention to the bags that were being tossed downstairs. It was when I heard footsteps coming down the stairs.
"Well, mom, this is the last that you will ever see of me. Good-bye." Those were the last words that I heard from Jazz. I could not believe it. I lost both of my children. I broke down and started crying on the couch. Everything that Danny, I mean, River said was all true.
