HELLO! Alright, this is Fluffy96 writing chapter two of "Return to Transylvania!" I haven't written anything in quite awhile, so please, no flames! I can't wait to write chapter four! (Nicola's writing chapter three) ENJOY!
Young Todd stared out into the glimmering Transylvanian night sky from his royal balcony, awaiting his parent's arrival. He had been doing this every evening for over 8 years, yet his parents hadn't come.
"Little brother?" a whisper sounded from behind him.
Alarmed at the ghost-like, voice, the youth gasped and swung around only to find an alabaster hand grasping the cream satin curtains. A beautiful teenage girl with an angel's face clad in a strapless white silken nightgown emerged from behind the curtain. Her thick, long, healthy, wavy golden-blond hair flowed freely from the top of her scalp to the swell of her curvaceous bottom. Violet.
"Big sister," the emerald-eyed pubescent boy sighed with relief. "What are you doing up?"
"The question is: what are you doing up?" the sixteen-year old asked whimsically, tapping her long burgundy painted nails against the castle's milky marble wall.
"I…was, um…" Todd stammered, attempting to not look his sister directly in the eyes.
Violet's eyes were a gorgeous, unique lilac that stood out stupendously in the moonlight. Todd couldn't bear making eye contact own sister, her eyes were just so…hypnotizing.
Todd glanced back at the stars and stared down at the crashing waves of the moonlit shores below. He let out a "huff" as hot tears began to pour from his jade eyes. The boy covered his head, almost choking on his own sobs.
The blond-haired girl's face softened as she let go of the wall and approached her brother.
"Todd," she whispered, kneeling down and placing a hand on his shoulder. Todd shivered at the feeling of her warm breath tracing on the nape of his neck. "It's mother and father, isn't it?"
"Y-yeah…" he sniffled, letting out a whimper.
"Little brother…" Violet cupped his tiny heart-shaped face in her soft hands. "It's okay…they'll be home soon! I promise!"
"NO THEY WON'T!" he screamed, kicking his sister away. "You've been saying that to me every night for the past eight years! And did they ever come? NO! WHY THE HELL SHOULD I BELIEVE YOU NOW?"
"Brother," her voice was a bit sterner now, yet still calm. "You know it's not my fault that they're not back on the planet of Transsexual!"
"True…but why did you lie to me?"
"I only lied to you so that you'd have a bit of confidence, a bit of reassurance that everything is going to be alright! It's out of my own politeness! Consider it as a benefit!"
"How do I benefit from a lie?"
Silence filled the outdoors. No sound but the crashing waves of white foam and seawater.
"Go to sleep, child," Violet answered, yawning, running her hands through her brother's shaggy red hair. "It's late."
"Do you think they'd come home tonight?" Todd piped hopefully.
Violet turned around slightly in the doorway of the balcony.
"Possibly," she said with suspicion.
"…promise?" Todd asked.
With a giggle and a slight smile of her strawberry lips, she stared at Todd with warm eyes. "Cross my heart and hope to die. Sweet dreams, little brother…"
