Chapter 11

Daphne's P.O.V

Slowly, I opened my eyes, letting them adjust to the light above me. Where was I? was the first question that popped into my head, until I remembered what had happened last. Then, a gazillion questions entered my mind. Where's Brie? Why does she look like me in a way? How are the girls? How are the guys? What did Dylan think when I fainted? Why had I fainted?Then, I began to reanalyze everything, starting at the beginning. Finally, I realized that Brie probably was just as evil as myself, but maybe she was being controlled. At first, her eyes were blank, just like Dylan's. But...when we were both on the ground and injured, and Aaron had just given his opinion, I don't know...her face was just...different. So much different...and it hit me. At that point, her face had life in it. She wasn't getting controlled. Then, two images came to my head, one of her blank eyes...and one of her with life eyes....and I noticed that in the blank-eyes-ones, her necklace...it was glowing...and the hole was filled with a silver light....but when she had controlf of herself, her necklace...was just empty...and you could see her skin. What did all this mean?

I tried to sit up, then collasped onto my bed. Pain rushed through my body and for a moment I thought I'd scream. I looked around me, trying not to move much, and saw my mother's birthday gift on my desk...along with nine other ones. What the heck?

"D-Daphne? Are you up?" Came a voice from across the room.

"Yes." I called. "What's going on? What day is it?"

"Umm...Friday?" she told me, more as a question then an answer. I heard her get up and call the others up, telling them I was finally up.

Wait, finally? Friday...what?!?!?! The fight took place on Monday! I've been unconscious for five days??? Five days...

The girls came around me and Kairi helped me sit up properly to face them all. In chorus, suddenly fully awake, they shouted, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAPHNE!"

I gasped, forgetting. "Oh my gawd! You're right! Um...thanks for the prezzies....what time is it?"

"It's 7:30..." Bridgette told me, checking her alarm clock.

"You don't know how worried we were! You've been asleep for five days!" Lily exclaimed.

"Don't worry about the homework, though. The teachers are all giving a pass on this week. The doctor says you're not healthy enough to go to classes yet, even after you wake up so we're just going to bring you your homework." Isabella told me, relieved for me. "Can you wait for us to brush our teeth and change for school? It'll only be a sec, ok?"

"Sure." I told them, and they rushed off to do their daily things.

I closed my eyes and suddenly felt my neck was light. I opened my eyes and looked over at the nightstand and sure enough, there sat my locket. "Why isn't my locket on me? And where's Pynki?" I added the last question, seeing that the stone was gold instead of pink.

"Doctor took it off. He couldn't get to some of your injuries. Pynki...well, when you're hurt, so is your pixie, especially if you're transformed...we found out....Pynki and the rest have been taken away for examination down at the Little Creatures Hospital. " Bridgette answered, as she changed into our school uniform. She sighed. "I hope Eira is fine. Us girls were ok, but they used up a lot of energy, and the injuries were more painful to them then to us."

"Are...are you guys ok now?" I asked.

"Yep. Totally fine." Lily chirped as she came out of the bathroom, brushing her hair into a ponytail. Isabella zoomed in before Kairi could, making her stomp her feet, impatiently. Kairi sighed and went to grab her books, stuffing them into her book bag.

I sighed in relief. "Good. That's good."

Fifteen minutes later, they were all dressed and ready to go. Classes didn't start 'til 8:30 though so they all sat on my bed.

"Open your presents!" Kairi urged and the others agreed with her.

"Mine first!" Isabella dibbed, grabbing a small box off of the desk. She gave it to me.

I smiled. "Thanks, Iz." Then, as I opened it, Lily moved the rest of the prezzies to my bed, where they were sitting.

I tore off the red wrapping gently, and then shook the box a bit.

"No, don't!" she cried, almost reaching out to grab it. "Don't shake!"

"Sorry." I giggled. I took off the tape and opened it, only to find red tissue and an envelope. "Wow, Izzie."

"I got carried away..." She muttered, blushing a bit.

I opened the envelope first, and out came a gorgeously drawn picture of the five of us.

Hey Daphne,

I don't know whether or not you'll be able to open this on your birthday, so I just want to say Happy Birthday! You're a great friend.

Hope you like your gift,

Isabella R.

I took off the tissue, and gasped. Instead was a beautiful, silver, charm bracelet. There was five glass charms on it; a cloud, a flame, a leaf, a water droplet and lastly a heart. "It's beautiful, Isabella! Thanks!"

"No problem." she said. "I made everyone one too." She then went to her nightstand and pulled out another box, slightly bigger than mine. She opened it, and pulled out four more bracelets. Then, as she came back to sit on my bed, she handed them out.

"Mine next!" Lily shouted, giving me a bag. I took out the letter, read it, and gently placed it onto Isabella's. Then, I looked into the bag. It was filled with green tissue. I took it all out, throwing it into the garbage beside my bed. At the bottom, laid a pink basketball. "Wow! Thanks, Lil!"

"I knew you'd like it." Lily remarked. "Unlike some people here." she added, shooting Bridgette a look.

Bridgette giggled. "Now, mine." She gave me a medium sized box. I took off the silver and purple wrappings and laughed. "Pink pom-poms and make-up. Nice. Thanks, Bridgy."

"Finally, mine." Kairi gave me her box shyly. "I didn't know whether or not you'd like it...but here." I took it and carefully taking off the blue wrappings and discarding it. But it was no ordinary box. It was a treasure chest. A very small, miniature treasure chest. I opened the lock, and inside was a beautiful shell necklace. "Wow, Kai-Kai. Thanks. It's wonderful. All of these presents are. Thanks so much!" I tried to hug them, but couldn't move. "Air hug?" They laughed and gave me an air hug.

I checked my alarm clock. "It's almost 8. I better open that present of my parents." I took the box, with the pink and black wrappings and opened it. A letter tumbled out. I opened it slowly and read through the contents.

Dear Daphne,

Happy Birthday! Finally, my baby girl is fourteen! We have actually been afraid of this day...because we have some things to tell you....and it's not easy for us to write this, as it won't be easy to read. We just want to say, we love you. With all our hearts. The truth is, you're adopted. Well, sort of. See, we've always wanted a child. Just one. That would have been enough. But there was just no way, the doctors have said. So...we were quite depressed. Then, that one day, at around 9 at night, a knock came on our door. We opened it, and found you! How happy we were. But there was serveral papers with you, including a letter from your real parents. Two, actually. One was for us, and one for you. The one for us told us everything we needed to know able you...plus when we were to give this to you. On the day you were born, at the hour you were born... It is quite shocking actually. Please, just know, we love you. The letter is down there.

Dear Daphne,

I know how weird this must be, reading this letter on your fourteenth birthday. But I am just very sorry, very very sorry that I could not raise you myself. Anyway, I would just like to tell you, Happy Birthday, and congratulations on becoming...a vampire. Yes, hun, you're a vampire. From a very royal, long line of the first class, the best, the strongest. Vampire children do not get their full powers until they are fourteen years of age. That was why you were not to know until today. Congratz. There is more. You have a sister. I do not know if you guys have reunited, but being vampires, there is a certain bond between families, especially brothers and sisters. You guys must have at least met once or twice and not have known. She is your twin sister, an even more pleasant surprise. Her name is Gabriella. Sadly, Gabriella was lost, all of this has even been written. The only thing with her is a small necklace, giving her her name. I hope you will find her soon. There will be pain, during your transformation, but hopefully, this little present will subdue it. Also, when you are sixteen years old, you...will be called home. You will know when, at that time. For now, live your life happily, and please remember, not only does your foster family love you...but so do we. All of us.

Take care, beloved one, take care.

My hands shook. "This can't be...this can't be..." My eyes suddenly went to my clock, and it said 7:59 a.m. Only one minute 'til the moment I was born.

"What is it?" Lily asked, full of concern. "L-Lily...read...read...this...letter...please...and...tell...the others..." I said slowly., my eyes still on the clock. As I gave the letter to her, the clock turned to 8:00 a.m.

Suddenly, there was a piercing scream in the room and I wanted to cover my ears...until I realized it was me screaming. A hot, burning feeling went through my body, and it lingered. I felt as if I was being roasted alive, and my heart was pounding hard in my chest. Every beat hurt and I could feel hot tears rolling down my face. I fell, laying down, looking up at my friends' worried expressions. They were shouting something, but I could not hear them. I wanted to reach out to them, to hold them, but instead I grabbed at my chest, wanting to tear out my heart. The pain rushed through, right down to my toes, over and over again. My head hurt, and I felt as if I've been upside down for over an hour, but I was not. I could feel myself screaming, but couldn't hear it over the pounding of my heart, and I couldn't feel it above the pain that was already at its seventh round through my body.

My skin burned, showing me a pain I've never felt, never seen.

Then, I heard Lily. "WE'VE GOT TO HELP HER! The necklace! The necklace!" I watched in slow motion, although the pain did not slow, as they all scrambled to get my locket. What was that going to do for me? My breathing got rough, and I had to suck in hard and loud to get even a little oxygen. My lungs suffered badly, not being able to give my body what it needed. I suddenly went dehydrated and it didn't help my breathing. My feet, unable to take the heat, started to go numb. I felt disfigured, mangled, pulled in different directions, even though I knew I was laying in bed. I felt as if I was burning in hell, or worse, burning in Isabella's hometown river (which was made out of lava) without a suit on.

Then, suddenly, as it had came, the pain was gone. My eye-sight came back, and I could hear. I was still breathing hard, but at least I wasn't dying. Lily, Isabella and Bridgette cried out in relief.

"Thank God!"

"Are you alright?"

"Daphne! You scared us to death!"

"Kairi went to get the teachers and Doctor!"

"You'll be fine! Thanks to Lily!"

My hand, automatically, went to my necklace and it surprised me to find my locket there. I gasped as the jewel filled with a black. "W-what...h-happened?"

Then, teachers and the doctor rushed in, shoving my friends out. Kairi was crying, scared out of her skin for my life. What great friends I had. I laid back normally into the bed, the teachers surrounding me. The doctor placed his bag on my nightstand since there was no room on my bed, because of all the presents. My math teacher moved those over to the desk.

My breathing slowed and I laid there nervously as the doctor took out different things to check up on me.

"Looks like we got a first class vampire here. Very rare, but still have 'em. Time for their transformation, and we all know it. Could hear the screaming all the way in Xylon Toxic if you wanted." The doctor conversationalized, with a slight British accent. "You teachers could leave now, no dangers here. I'll get her rested. Won't be back in school for another week or two. Not only having to deal with the transformation, but also with the fact that she's got physical injuries from that nasty fall up on the roof. Glad she got away with minor scars. Ok, good day now."

The teachers one by one filed out, getting ready to go and teach. Finally, the room was empty.

"A vampire, eh? Didn't you tell your friends that you were one? They didn't have to call everyone but me, y'know." He informed.

I closed my eyes, not wanting to see what he was doing. "I didn't know I was one until this morning, right before I got this terrible pain."

"Ahh...that is quite sad. Adopted, eh? Yep, I know your type. Very, very high up. Sometimes, they don't like to raise their kids, and don't take them back until they're fully grown. Typical. But it's ok, now, see? No more pain...that locket, very powerful, indeed. Can do some amazing stuff, can't it? Saved your life five days ago, those girls say. Should be happy, you. Amazing girls, wonderful friends. That one who called us, a bit shy and odd, but still, amazing. Now let's see...you should just rest mostly. No medication needed. You look perfectly fine now. Y'know, several children go through this without an amazin' device like that around your neck. Should be thankful. Ok, I'll see you this afternoon for another checkup. Rest for now." he told me, and taking his bag, left.

I sighed, then settled down for some sleep.

A couple of Days Later (More like a week)

"I'm fine, I swear!" I told my friends. They sat on their beds, looking at me, giving me a suspicious look. It was nighttime, and we were getting ready to sleep.

"You sure?" Lily asked.

"Positive?" Kairi added.

"Absolutely ok?" Bridgette questioned.

"I'm fine!" I repeated. I sat calmly on my own bed, stroking the baby kitten Aaron had gotten for my birthday. It was a magical cat, knowing how to use the toilet and when. Also, it could take care of itself. All it needed was a place to stay, and of course, that would be in our room. Her name was Saphira, and she was white-ish tan. She purred in my lap, and I smiled. "I'll go back to school on Monday, ok?"

"Fine." Kairi answered grudgingly. She wanted me in my full health before going back.

"So...what are we going to do tomorrow?" Lily asked.

"Anything...anything at all."

That's it. sorry its soo short. sorta ran out of ideas. But I swear, or hopefully, the next one will be good. I just want the months to speed by, so maybe it'll be Christmas or Thankgivings in the next chapter! we'll see...

Thanks for reading and please review! Thanks.
