Note- Otac means father.

Magnus sat behind her computer and frowned as she did abnormal search of the area, Nikola's abnormal signature came up on the edge of New City, not far down the river from the Sanctuary. She frowned again as she saw a similar life form, close by to his. This was odd he always traveled alone.

Her frown deepened, "Oh, Nikola, what are you up too?"

Nada woke to her alarm clock and groaned, "Dad, get up!" She shouted pulling her duna over her head. She heard him groan in the other room, they'd been up late last night testing on of his Wireless Energy experiments, even though Vampires didn't need much sleep when they didn't get the little they needed they became very cranky.

She groaned as she sat up, her head pounding in a headache, "Too much wine" She muttered, "Too much wine"

She had a cold shower and got dressed in her favorite clothes, black jeans, a sleeveless corset top that showed her back through crossed lace and a pair of black and red Doc Marten's.

She walked out of her room the same time her father walked out of his, "Can we go somewhere? I'm sick of sitting on my ass"

He nodded, "We need to get more wine"

"And food" Nada told him, "We still need food"

He rolled his eyes, "I know that, I've been a Vampire longer than you have"

"I'm only half, Otac" She murmured as they left the building.

"And I love you for that"

"No you don't"

He laughed, "Of course not"

The walked onto the crowded main street and Nada gathered the courage to ask Nikola something she'd wanted to know for her whole life, "Tell me about my mother"

Nikola frowned back at her, "Why do you suddenly want to know?"

"You never tell me about her" Nada whined not telling him she'd had a dream about a woman with beautiful brown hair last night, "What was her favorite food?"

"Mexican, she always had a taste for spicy food" Nikola smiled.

"Her favorite color?"

"Good question, she loves black and white but those are shades, so I'm going to guess red"

Nada tucked her hands in her jean pockets, "Why did she name me Nada Vera back in 1948 when Serbian names weren't exactly at the top of the list?"

"You know what your name translates?"

"Of course, Nada means hope and Vera means faith"

"She hoped that you had enough faith in you to believe every life form has value, like her"

"Nice twist of words" Nada laughed.

"She had a way with words?"

"What was her name?" Nada peered up at her father, "Otac?"

Nikola sighed, "She's going to kill me that I haven't told you her name"

"She alive!" Nada said shocked, "Otac, this was 64 years ago" Realization dawned on her face, "Don't tell me"

"Your mother is Helen Magnus"

"Oh my god, Otac, this is 1984 all over again"

"That wasn't my fault"

"You vanished off the face of the Earth for 2 and a half weeks, had me sitting in your lab worrying the whole time and you came back to tell me that your experiment, that I had no idea you were doing I might add, had gone wrong!" Nada laughed remembering his face when he saw her sitting there as he came back into the right dimension.

"And your point is?" Nikola taunted.

"That your deceiving bastard!" Nada laughed back, "I should let the Government take away your money"

"That's going a little too far" Nikola mocked.

"It is not, you could blow up the whole continent if you wanted too!" Nada shouted back playfully, "I should be watching your every move when you get into that state of mind"

"Your evil just like your mother"

Nada rolled her eyes, "That explains me, where did you get it from?"

He scoffed, "Another good question"

She rolled her eyes again, "So what are we doing now?"

"We're going to buy a car, go shopping and get you ready for school tomorrow"

She groaned, "I'm all for the car but the school stuff not so much"
