A/N: HELLO people! Sorry…I'm really hyper today c(: probably from the little sleep I got last night (lol I get hyper when I should be tired). Therefore, here comes along chapter 17! There are only 11 more reviews till I reach a hundred! EEEEEPP! I'm excited! This is my most popular story =D and I LOVE YOU ALL! Thank you Man-Suz-She for the idea! Hahaha…I'm eating Merci chocolates…yumm!
Chapter 17: (This is going to get involved with TVD a bit…not too much…but…let's just say I'm going to involve them but they're not important in this story and the fact that they wouldn't do this in the show but they are in this story. LOL run on sentence that totally doesn't make sense…)
James yelled out triumphantly, jumping up from his place on the couch. "I found it! I found it!" he sang, doing a happy dance. When seeing everybody looking at him, he quickly calmed down, returning to his now-normal serious face. "Sorry…uh…"
"Well, where is it?" Shane butted in, staring intently at James.
"You can't read my mind?" James sidetracked.
Shane rolled his eyes and said, "Just tell everybody else where it is!"
"It's in Mystic Falls, Virginia!" James blurted out, glaring at Shane afterwards.
"Virginia? That's hundreds of miles away!" Gustavo fumed.
"That's why we have the jet! Now, let's pack and go!" Logan said, rushing out the door with everyone on his heels.
"What the heck, Logan? Feeling a little rushed, are we?" Shane snickered. "We do have forever, you know."
"You guys do! We don't!" Logan snapped.
Shane rolled his eyes but followed him anyway, standing right behind Kendall and staring at the blonde's butt. He quickly snapped his gaze up when hearing James' thoughts.
That's MY boyfriend, you know. James glared.
So? He's cute. And he just might fall for me… Shane thought back.
Compel him and I kill you. James growled out in his head.
You wouldn't kill your own brother…right? Shane thought back snidely.
You're not my brother. James thought back before blocking off his mind from Shane.
Shane rolled his eyes and sighed. He was only joking with James. He didn't think he would fall for the blonde. Kendall just wasn't his type. He was James'. But…there was just something about Kendall that drew Shane in…maybe it was the fact he was so thoughtful? So protective? So…alluring? He was just James' type…rebel streak and stubborn…while Shane was caring, thoughtful, and over-cautious. The older boy rolled his eyes and continued walking behind the other four boys, knowing that one move made on the blonde and he was dead.
They walked to the apartment, where the four boys walked to their respective rooms to pack while Shane sat on the couch. As soon as the boys were done, Kendall and James being done first due to James' speed, the five of them drove to the airport and met Kelly by their private jet.
"Ok, guys. We're going to take off in ten minutes. So get ready for Virginia and say goodbye to California for a while." Kelly looked back at Kendall. "I already told your mom what's happening and she's fine with it."
Kendall nodded and replied, "Thanks."
"Now, while you guys are off getting that dagger, Gustavo and I will be sorting some…complications out with Griffin. He wanted you guys to perform last week and wasn't too happy to find out you weren't fully human anymore. Now he's kinda pissed and, well, we need to catch him up on everything." Kelly sighed.
"You guys aren't coming with us?" Carlos' head popped out of the jet.
"No. You're on your own with this one." And with that, Kelly left the five boys in the jet.
"Well, now what do we do?" Carlos plopped onto the sofa in the compartment.
"We just head to Mystic Falls, get the dagger and ash, and come back to perform the…reanimation of my humanness. And Shane's, too." James stated.
"No der, Sherlock. I think he meant what do we do on the plane?" Logan clarified.
"Talk, play games, sing, dance, and other stuff." Shane answered.
"That…sounds like a party." Carlos said.
"Thank you, Captain Obvious. It's kinda what he was getting at." James said.
"Well then." Carlos huffed.
"You did replenish the vodka…right?" Kendall asked Logan.
"Yes…I did." Logan sighed out.
"Good. Let's party."
The next four hour flight consisted of partying and drinking together; laughing without a care in the world. Kendall was constantly at James' side, the two sharing kisses occasionally. Logan and Carlos, though, were talking to Shane, getting the older Diamond to reveal more of his past.
"So, after you changed, you just kinda plunged through college and didn't really do anything?" Logan asked.
"Yep. Then I found James and all this happened. It's amazing what leaving your family can do…you miss out on everything." Shane sighed. "Don't ever do that. It sucks…a lot."
Logan laughed. "I wasn't really planning on it."
Shane smiled. "Sure." The forest-eyed boy looked down. "What if the dagger doesn't work and kills both me and James?"
"I don't know. We haven't really researched it a bunch." Logan confessed. "Gustavo only just told us."
"I know…I was there." Shane looked up. "I'll go first, though, when we do the reanimation. If I die, I die, and you'll have to find a new way to keep James alive while making him human. I owe him that much."
"Aww! That's so sweet!" Carlos wiped away a fake tear.
"What?" Logan asked.
"He's willing to die for his brother." Carlos replied.
"Well, James kind of hates me. I want to gain his trust back because he is indeed my brother." Shane confessed, looking at James who was laughing with Kendall.
"You're a better person now. You'll gain his forgiveness; I know you will." Logan said, patting Shane's shoulder.
"I hope so…"
About an hour later, the five boys landed in Virginia, and were ushered into a limo and sent off to Mystic Falls. The ride there consisted of the plan of how they were going to get the dagger.
First, James and Shane were to walk around, reading everybody's minds, searching for any mention of the dagger. As soon as they found someone, they were to pry there mind for more information before telling the rest of the group about that person.
Second, Logan was to walk around looking for people wearing rings with a lapis lazuli stone. That would indicate another vampire, who might have information on the dagger. Once Logan found a person, he was to report to the rest of the group via cell phone about it.
Third, Kendall and Carlos were to spy on anybody's conversations, run through the forest for any mysterious places, and report back to everyone if they discovered anything.
All in all, their plan was pretty full-proof, and they split off into their respective groups. James and Shane immediately went to the park in the middle of town, where many people were gathered to watch an old movie. They started the slow process of scanning human's minds as soon as they sat down, knowing it was going to take a while.
Logan had followed them, walking around with a tray of food and drinks for the townsfolk to buy while watching the movie. He had started his search, finding absolutely nothing so far.
Kendall and Carlos, on the other hand, had stumbled across and little cave leading into the ground. As soon as they explored it, they discovered that it was contained jail cells and shackles, and they suspected it was for when a werewolf turned on the full moon. They texted their find to everyone, immediately confirming to everyone that there were indeed mystical creatures here.
That didn't even compare to James' find, though.
James had left the movie about ten minutes in, bored to death. He left Shane to keep searching the human's minds for information while he walked to the outskirts of the town. He immediately stopped as he walked by a sweet, colonial house when he heard the thoughts coming from inside.
Oh God…how are we going to kill Elijah with the dagger if Stefan and Damon can't hold it? This is bad, very bad…They are having the dinner party right now! What am I supposed to do? Go over there and kill Elijah myself? I can't do that! I'm no Salvatore!
The thoughts were coming from a pretty girl pacing her room, a necklace full of Vervain resting on her neck. James mentally cursed the girl, knowing she couldn't be compelled with that necklace on. But the pretty boy shook it off, sending everybody a text of the house number and street.
Shane was the first to arrive, hiding in the bushes on the other side of the street from the girl's house. "What happened?"
"This girl's involved with the vampire crap. She has a necklace of Vervain on, though, so we can't compel her for information. We'll have to act like we don't know our way around, and maybe get the address of the vampires she was thinking about. Damon and Stefan Salvatore. They have the dagger that we need." James whispered frantically to Shane. As soon as the others arrived and were filled in, James went up to the door and rang the doorbell.
The girl opened the door and stood there with confusion written on her face. "Uh…hi?"
"Hello. I'm new to this area and was wondering if you could direct me to the Salvatore house? Everyone's out and you have been the first to actually answer the door." James smiled.
The girl frowned. "Why do you want to know where they live?"
"Personal business." James smiled again.
Her eyes flicked to James' hand, where the lapis lazuli ring rested. In that amount of time, she looked back up and said "I'm not sure they would want me to tell you incase this is a prank."
But James had already seen the flickering thought in her mind…the address of the Salvatore's. "Well, ok. I'll go ask someone else. Thanks." And with that, James left her front door and walked down the street, sending a silent message to Shane. He was immediately met with the others, and they continued walking to where the dagger resided. James and Shane pulled the other three into the forest, taking a short cut where they wouldn't be seen.
"She was annoying." James muttered, taking Kendall's hand.
"Good. For a second there I thought you were going to kiss her or something." Kendall confessed.
"I would never do that. You're my one and only…" James trailed off, kissing Kendall's cheek.
Kendall blushed and looked up again, seeing where they were. "We're here."
James looked up and scowled. "Great…She drove here."
"What?"
"That girl…her name's Elena apparently, drove here to warn the brothers of our…arrival." Shane frowned. It was truly amazing how similar he and James looked.
"Great. That just made our job that much harder." Carlos muttered.
"Well," Logan spoke up. "How about James and Shane go in there and tell them our predicament while we wait outside?"
The two brothers laughed and looked at each other. "Someone's afraid!" Logan rolled his eyes and pouted. "But that's Plan A. Plan B…we bring you guys in." Shane said.
The three boys nodded and the Diamond brothers walked up to the house and rang the doorbell. They heard the soft footsteps of someone, a vampire more importantly, came to the door. Once the door opened, they were met with the icy blue stare of a dark haired man.
"What do you want?" The man seethed.
"We need to talk to you." James said, his voice never wavering.
"About what?" A light haired man, about James' age, came up behind the older one. It was clear they were brothers.
"The dagger and white oak ash. We heard you had it and we need it." Shane spoke up.
"Well, well, well…too bad." And with that, the vampire shut the door. James tried to stop it with his hand, but was met with an invisible barrier.
"Damn it…" James swore, speeding off to where Kendall, Logan, and Carlos were followed by Shane. "Vampires can't get in unless a human invites them in…ugh. A stupid witch must have casted that stupid spell over their house. We can't get in." James said.
"So what now?" Carlos asked.
"Uh…you go in." Shane stated.
"What?" Logan asked.
"You guys go in and get it. We'll have to wait outside until you guys obtain the items. We won't be able to go in unless that Elena girl lets us in." James scowled again.
"Stop making that face or it'll stay like that." Kendall muttered, taking James' hand in his own.
James laughed and looked at the others. "Good luck, you guys. You're going to need it."
