So the quest for Robbie begins!! I think I spelled Lacey's name like Lacy in past stories, but I always meant to spell it as Lacey, so I changed it here. Sorry for any confusion! I don't own the Secret Saturdays, but I do own my OC's.
Finding Robbie
Part One: Family
So, Beeman, Doc, Drew, Zak, and I all left the meeting and got into the Saturday's airship. And, at the last second, Doyle decided that he wanted to come along, so he caught up with us using his jetpack. We didn't notice him for about a half hour. Poor Doyle!
So, we let Doyle in and then we all debated on where to look for my brother first.
"We should probably go to where you were raised." Doyle
"I wasn't raised Doyle. Oh, that's right, you missed the story. I'll tell you later though." me
"Alright." Doyle
"How about we go where you grew up?" Zak
"Zak, I grew up all over the country. That wouldn't work too well." me
"Oh." Zak
"I think I know where we should go. But, you're not gonna like it too much Yin." Beeman
"Where?" me
"I think you know." Beeman
I read Beeman's mind
"You want to go to my old house." me
"Yeah. They might know about your brother." Beeman
"I'm not sure how they would know, but it's worth a try…" me
"Why wouldn't they know?" Doyle
"I raised Robbie, not them. I don't even think they know Robbie exists…" me
"So, do you still want to go there?" Drew
"Yeah." me
"Ok, I'll put in the coordinates." Doc
We flew for about three hours before getting to my old house. It was a pretty boring three hours. All that happened was some arguing between Beeman, Doyle, Zak, and me. After we got out of the airship, we all walked around town until we came across a giant mansion.
The mansion had periwinkle painted wooden siding, a white roof, white bordered windows, and a giant white porch. The house was about seven stories tall. The porch wrapped all around the house and had at least thirty chairs on it. The front yard was filled with fountains, ranging in designs of dogs to dragons. There were also carved bushes and trees that had elaborate patterns on them. One was a miniature replica of the mansion itself. The sidewalk connected the driveway to the stairs that lead to the front door. The walk took about five minutes. The yard was about a mile long.
When we finally got to the front steps, we met an escalator! It lead up to the front porch, which in turn, lead to the front door. The front door was white and was about ten feet tall and five feet wide. It had a solid gold knocker on it.
"Ok, this thing is heavy!!" Zak, trying to knock the door using the knocker.
Finally, Zak was able to lift the knocker. We waited at the door for about a minute.
"Hi! What do you…oh. Who are you guys?" A girl I recognized as Lacey.
"Lacey!? I haven't seen you in years!!" me
"Wait, years…Yin!!! YinYang!!!" Lacey
"Yeah, it's me." me
"What are you doing here!? Wait, you can come in if you want! I just, I haven't seen you in years Yin." Lacey
"So…where is everyone?" me
"They're not home right now. Well, Kate's here, but I'm not sure where she is right now…" Lacey
"Ok, so when do you think they'll be back?" me
"About an hour. I'm not sure they'll be too thrilled to see you though. Well, only dad, Carrie, and maybe Lori. I'm not sure if Lori likes you or not…" Lacey
"Lacey!!! Do you know where my guitar is!?" Kate
"I know I put it somewhere, but now I can't find it and…" Kate
"Wow. Somewhere…very descriptive…" me
"YINYANG!!! You're here!!!?? OMG!!!" Kate
"Ok, let's not freak out!!" me
"So…these are your sisters...?" Beeman
"Yup. We are, but…why are your glasses…pink…?" Lacey
"WHY DOES EVERY DANNIE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY GLASSES!!!" Beeman yelling
"Ok, someone got up on the wrong side of the bed…" Kate
"Wow." Doyle and Zak
We all talked for about an hour. Apparently, every Dannie has a record deal, so that's why the Dannies are billionaires. Apparently, my dad got remarried, but then got a divorce. Dad was never a very good husband…
After a while, the rest of my "family" came home. Talk about awkward…
"Ok, so that was a great night!! Right Lori!?" Carrie
"…oh…yeah…great…" Lori
"Carrie, you do know that Lori's not your slave, right?" Hayley
"Stay out of this Hayley!! Right Lori?" Carrie
"Yeah…right…sure…" Lori
"Ok, settle down girls." Dad
"Hey Robert…" me
"Yin!?" Dad, Carrie, Lori, and Hayley
"Yeah…Yin…" me
"And a dude with pink glasses!!!" Hayley
"Ahhhhh!" Carrie
"Why are you scared of Beeman!?" me
"Are you saying I'm not scary?" Beeman
"No. Oh wait, yes!" me
"Beeman. Scary!" Zak, while laughing
"Ok, I don't give a damn about the man with pink glasses. Yin, why the hell are you here!?" Dad
"I'm here to see if you know anything about Robbie Lee Dannie. Who I gave to Elizabeth Smith." me
"Give me one reason why I should help you." Dad
"As much as I hate to admit it, I'm your daughter. And, if that's not enough, you ruined my life. I could have just lived a normal, fine life, but no. You had to kick mom and me out of the house all because I could bend some elements. You screwed up my life. And by the way. Mom is dead!" me
The rest of my family was in shock. Lacey, Kate, Hayley, and Lori all started to cry. Dad and Carrie didn't seam to be in too much shock.
"You…you know she's dead!?" me
"Yeah. I figured it out and I told Carrie." Dad
"You're just unbelievable." me
"I know about Robbie." Lori
"No. No, you don't know Robbie, Lori." Carrie
"Yes. Yes, I do know Robbie, Carrie." Lori
"How do you know him!?" me
"His mother was Robbie Smith. Carrie and I are friends with the Smith family. Well, now they're the Johnson family. Robbie Lee Johnson. The family lived on the west coast, moved here, and then moved to somewhere near the Canadian border, but still in the USA. I think they live in North Dakota, but they may have moved to Idaho." Lori
"North Dakota!? Or Idaho!?" Zak
"Why did you yell that!?" me
"I don't know…" Zak
"Why do you have a red streak in your hair!? Why are you goth!? Why…" Dad
"Why are you going all parental on me!? It's not like you give a damn what I do…" me
"That might be true, but I don't want one of my daughters going around being goth and calling herself a Dannie!!" Dad
"So, you're too worried about the family's image to care about me. Which I'm guessing, is why you kicked me out when I was one…you didn't want someone to tarnish the Dannie name." me
"Yeah, your dad seams like a great guy, Yin." Zak
"Yeah, he really is…" me
"So…I don't want you to come dad, but who else wants to come help look for Robbie with us?" me
"I will!" Lacey, Hayley, Lori, and Kate
"You don't want to come Carrie?" me
"Nah, I'll just stay here with dad…" Carrie
"Alright then." me
"Why do you want them to come too?" Beeman
"Well, anyone could be useful in finding Robbie, especially Lori. She seems to know a lot about the family Robbie is in." me
"Yeah, I do." Lori
"Yin, before you go, I need to tell you something." Dad
"Do I really want to hear it!?" me
"Maybe…" Dad
"So…what?" me
"Um…you know how there are supernatural beings in the world?" Dad
"Yeah, go on…" me
"Well, our family has a lot of them." Dad
"What do you mean?" me
"I mean, most of the Dannies are wizards and witches." Dad
"But…I'm not a witch. I just control elements…" me
"Yeah, you and your uncle Ray are the exceptions." Dad
"So…I'm not a supernatural being? Well, besides the element controlling part…" me
"No, not really. Yin…you're a vampire…" Dad
"What!!? I can't be a vampire!! Not during all this Twilight crap!! Wait! How am I a vampire if I don't have fangs!?" me
"I guess your fangs are going to come in later." Dad
"But, how am I a vampire!? Mom's a mortal, and apparently you're a wizard…" me
"You were bitten by a vampire when you were one. Remember how you and your mother used to travel around the world?" Dad
"Yeah…" me
"Well, you were bitten somewhere in England." Dad
"You mean, I became a vampire in Transylvania!?" me
"Oh yeah, that's the place." Dad
"Ok, that is so cool!!" Zak
"Yeah…it kinda is. But, how is uncle Ray a vampire?" me
"He was bitten too." Dad
"So…pyro is a vampire?" Beeman
"Yeah." Dad
"I'm a vampire without fangs…" me
"But, you're allergic to garlic, hate the sun, and wear all black and red. Oh, and you have supernatural abilities." Zak
"Yeah…that's true." me
"So…how do we really know all this is true?" Doc
"Here." Lacey
Lacey uses magic to dye Beeman's hair pink.
"What!? Why did you make my hair pink!?" Beeman
"Well, now it matches your glasses…" me
"Ok, we believe you." Drew and Doc
"Can someone fix my hair!?" Beeman
"Oh, sure." me
I used my darkness bending to turn Beeman's hair back to normal, darkness is just like magic. You can use it the same way, well almost the same. Darkness is a lot harder to control than regular magic.
After Beeman's hair was turned back to normal (he's not going to hear the end of that for a while. I took a picture!!), we all got on the airship. Doyle didn't actually talk most of the time we were talking to my family. He was drooling over Carrie most of the time. I had to slap him to knock him out of it!
So, we were all off to North Dakota. We have a huge team now. Doc, Drew, Doyle, Beeman, Zak, Lori, Kate, Hayley, Lacey, and me. The quest for Robbie begins! If anything, when we find Robbie, he's gonna be freaked out by all these people trying to find him! Poor Robbie…
Author's Note
Ok, so the quest for Robbie is starting! In North Dakota! I have a six page "Interview With Achilles" paper due for English on Monday. We're reading the Iliad in case no one knows who Achilles is. Then, also for English, I have a four page essay due the same Friday. Ugh!! Too many papers! Then, my family are all going to New York for a week. Basically, I might not have the next chapter up for a while. It'll either be up on Sunday, Wednesday, or in about two weeks. I hope I can write it soon though! I'm aiming for Wednesday though.
Oh, and in case anyone wanted to know, I actually made allusions with Yin's sisters to some of my favorite musicians. They're probably not like themselves though. I've never talked to any of my favorite musicians, so I'm not sure how they'd really act. Here's a list
Amy Lee Dannie (YinYang Lee Dannie)- Amy Lee (Evanescence)
Lori Rose Dannie- Lori Lee (Solstice/Amy Lee's sister)
Carrie Marie Dannie- Carrie Lee (Amy Lee's sister)
Kate Marshall Dannie- Kate Voegele
Hayley Kayla Dannie- Hayley Williams (Paramore)
Lacey Moon Dannie- Lacey Mosley (Flyleaf)
Robbie Yang Dannie (Robbie Yang Johnson)- Robbie Lee (Amy Lee's brother)
Yeah, so the middle names are all made up though. Has anyone heard that Evanescence is going to have a third album out soon!? I am sooooo excited!! I've been waiting three/four years!! Also, they're going electro pop! It sounds so cool! I hope that some of their songs are still "Evanescence", but I really want to hear Evanescence being electro pop! I can't wait!!
