A Twist in the Starnik's Past
Chapter 6: Everything Happens For a Reason
Myka's P.O.V
"Wait, why was he under you?" Dad asked mom.
"Dakota why were you kissing mom?" Lupa asked Dakota.
"How did you do that?" Mom asked Dakota.
"Mom, how are you in heat? You shouldn't be." Dakota said to mom.
"Kota what the hell were you doing?" I exclaimed. Things have taken a turn for the worst, and I'm not sure how to feel, happy we could finally go home, scared that mom and dad have seen us or concerned that I've just witnessed my mother making out with my brother. We were all talking and shouting over one another, no-one was getting anywhere as we were. But I couldn't silence them or myself, things were just so messed up. We could smell mom was in heat, but she couldn't be, she told us the first time she did was a few months after she met my sibling's father, yet here she was, reeking of that scent. It would explain a part of why she gave dad those scars; it did make some sense in a way. Maybe since grams wasn't around to teach her these things like mom did to Lupa and Lexi did to me, she didn't know what heat felt like, she maybe she didn't think much of it, maybe she didn't know what heat felt like. It can make us a little edgy if our "urges" aren't satisfied, but that's what the coping mechanisms are for. When a she-wolf first comes into heat, it's bad, just not as bad as it gets the second time, so maybe she didn't think she was or recognised it afterwards. I remember her telling me how it was dad that taught her about the she-wolf stuff, I guess that time hasn't come yet, so she can't have known that she had already been through it. It explains why she snapped, terry's return and heat, not a good combination.
But now we were in a big mess, and shouting over one another was not helping. So I quickly thought of some words to deal with it temporarily. "All these people are acting like a like a pup, please just make them all shut up!" Suddenly, there was complete silence around me, and when I looked around at everyone, they were mouthing words, trying so hard to talk and yell again, but nothing was coming out. Lupa and Dakota looked straight to me. "Ok, we can deal with this quietly." I said with a sigh and waving my paw, each of them let out a breath as if they had held them, but I think it was because they just wanted to hear something.
"What the hell was that?" Mom exclaimed.
"Was that you?" Dad demanded.
"Did you call me mom again?" Mom added. I shot a glare at Dakota, so he makes out with our mother, then he calls her "mom" again.
"Sorry." He sighed and shaking his head. "Force of habit."
"No, there's more to it then just that." She snapped. "First you all call me that…"
"Then you make out with her." Lupa scowled.
"I couldn't stop her, and I didn't want to use my powers in front of her!" He replied hotly in his defence.
"Powers?" Dad said puzzled.
"Just shut up!" I yelled, but that yell seemed to have triggered something I didn't want seen. I bolted to the right and heaved into the hedges what we ate yesterday; I was surprised I was able to keep it down for this long. I felt a paw on my back and rubbing it a few seconds later, and another white one beside me, so I knew it was Dakota. "Oh god." I was able to say in-between gaps of throwing up.
"What's wrong with her?" I head dad asked.
"She's not well." Lupa replied. The last of it came up moments later, but I was stuck with the after taste seeing as there wasn't anything around to drink. I turned around, but stayed where I stood as I looked back and mom and dad.
"Done?" Dakota asked.
"Yeah, god it's horrible." I replied and spitting one last time to get as much of it out.
"How did you do that?" Mom then asked. "I know it was you, you made us unable to talk."
"And I saw you and you…" Dad added pointing to Lupa and me. "…Do something else. Who and what are you?" He demanded to know. Lupa, Dakota and I all looked at one another. We should just run, run and get home while we could, but we couldn't, as far as we know, this didn't happen in mom and dad's past, so we had to fix it, and fix now before anything else got out of paw. We couldn't ruin this anymore then we had. But then my sister decided to take matters into her own paws.
"We're your children." She answered.
"Lupa!" I exclaimed and Dakota sharing the same shocked look as I.
"Face it Myka, they know or their going to know everything sooner or later, so we may as well."
"Know what?" Dad then asked.
"We're from the future." She replied. "We came here when one of Myka's spells went wrong, we needed to find something to get back and now we can, but you've seen us."
"You really think we're that stupid!" Dad spat. It was obvious that he didn't think highly of this or think that any of it was true. But then again, this was back in the day when they thought they were the only supernatural beings on earth, so how were they supposed to believe this. I looked at mom; she had a more serious face on rather then a disbelieving one. Her eyes were narrowed as she stared Lupa, Dakota and I out as if looking for a sign of a lie.
"What did you say before?" She then asked.
"We're your children." I replied.
"It's not possible, I don't have a mate."
"Not yet you don't." Lupa chuckled.
"You don't seriously believe them do you?" Dad asked.
"You know me, they're not lying." She replied. He looked back up at us and studied our body language.
"Fine, tell us something only we know." He said and crossing his arms.
"Mom gave you those scars." Dakota added and pointing to his neck. He placed his hand over them and ran his finger tips down them. "Terry came back to find grandma, but then he left again Mom was depressed for days, so when you tried to snap her out of it she lashed out." His eyes widened and he looked down to mom, they both knew there wasn't anyone around at the time it happened.
"Then there was the time mom taught you to howl." Lupa chuckled. "You sounded horrible."
"That was only tonight." She snapped back as if she'd caught us out. "Anyone could have heard that.
"Even the fact they matched?" Lupa then questioned. "Pretty weird we'd know that right?" She took her shocked look to Scott who returned it with his own.
"You came here with your friends, Tony, Dean and Skye on a trip when you met Grams and was shot. Therefore the Starnik was re-born." I added. The look on their faces said it all; they were astonished that anyone could know what we did. But then again, they did tell us, just not yet.
"Ok, answer this, what gives the Starnik away?" Dad then asked. We didn't answer, not in words anyway, but in actions. We all looked at each other as our eyes turned into that swirling, pulsating green and we turned to look back at them. The faces turned into a whole new level of awe and disbelief. Why on earth were we doing this? We shouldn't be, grams said and I know that we could be changing our very history by doing this. I just hope Grams could do something about this afterward, because we were in deep trouble
We settled our eyes after a moment and let them take in everything they had just witnessed. So know they knew, but what would their reactions be. "Y…you…your eyes." Mom stuttered in awe as her started to turn the same out of whatever it was she was feeling, but it was only dim.
"That's not all." Lupa giggled. She then held up her paw and one of her electric shield balls appeared, hovering above her paw. Their jaws dropped as she then settled her mind and the ball faded away. Dakota jumped and reappeared beside her which only then seemed to magnify their awe or fear, we didn't know what they were feeling. Where was my mate when I needed him? They then both looked at me, but I didn't say or so anything, I stood where I was.
"Can…Can you do anything?" Dad asked. I looked towards my siblings just as Dakota bit a minor cut into his leg. He winced and let out a small yelp which only made us all think what was he doing? But I understood. I walked up to him, taking his paw in one of mine and then placing my other over his wound before I began to heal it. That green light appeared from under my paw and the blood started to seep up his leg and off his paw and back into the wound as it then healed over and left nothing behind. I set his paw down while saying.
"I have your power."
"And Sc…" Dakota was about to say but I cut him off when I slammed my paw down on his and silencing him. He muffled his yelp, but he understood, it may not sound good for them to hear how mom mated with a human as he was now.
"It's true?" Mom gasped.
"It's true." Lupa smiled. "We're your children."
"Oh my god." She muttered again, but with a grin growing on her face. We started to walk towards her as she and Scott to us when she then opened her paws to us in which we all wrapped our paws around her. Her heart beat frantically in her chest, but I'm not sure if that was out of fear, surprise or happiness, most likely a mixture of them. But it was good, It felt like a giant ton weight had been taken off my chest, and I bet my siblings felt the same. "I can't believe this." She chuckled while we all embraced one another but dad was still stood to the side trying to piece it all together.
"Neither could we when it happened." I giggled.
"How did it happen exactly?" Dad asked as we all let one another go.
"Another power I have is Wicca, and a spell I said which went wrong and sent us here. We've been trying to find our way home but now this has happened."
"So that's why you called me "mom" the other day." Mom giggled.
"When we woke up after you found us, we didn't know it had happened until grandma found us." Dakota replied. She looked at him as he answered, but then her entire facial expressions changed when she did, I think the reality of the fact she just made out with him hit home and her face contorted into that of a sickened one.
"Oh my god, I can't believe I did that." She said blushing seriously bad and hanging her head.
"Heat." He chuckled. "Not the first time it's made you do something crazy."
"There was a time when Dakota, Scott and I walked in just after you and dad and some "fun"." Lupa giggled.
"Dad?" She questioned. "Oh who is he, what's his name?" She asked suddenly going all giddy. "I bet he's someone from the pack right?" We all only just laughed lightly.
"No, he's from Canada, his name's Shadow." Dakota answered.
"Canada?" She questioned. "We don't plan on going to Canada do we?" She asked looking up to dad.
"Nope, we've got everything we need right here." He smiled.
"Oh trust me; you go up there at some point." Lupa sighed; Dakota and I knew what she was thinking. The night the Valley Pack are killed and they taken to the Ditori's base couldn't be that far from now.
"So now I see why you look so much like mom." She said towards Lupa.
"Yeah, and Dakota is pretty much a look-a-like of Dad." She replied. "So if you want to know what he looked like, look at him." She added, pointing to him. So that's what she did, she looked him up and down and I guessed trying to picture what her future mate would look like, it must have been hard to think that the wolf of her dreams was out there somewhere and their children was before her now. Pretty strange. But then again, another future mate was standing right beside her in the form of a human and my father. She then looked at me and her face contorted into a puzzled one.
"You don't look anything like them." She replied. "Where did you get all that black from?" My eyes widened and I looked frantically and desperately towards my siblings for an answer, but their faces were the same as mine. I couldn't think of anything to say other then…
"You were mated twice, I'm their half-sister." Everyone's eyes widened again.
"Really?" She asked. "What happened to "Shadow"?" She asked.
"You two grew distant." Lupa answered before I did and winking at me after she did. I understood, she may not take to well to hearing her future mate dying before hers and her children's eyes. "You split up after a few years, but you stayed really good friends."
"He visits regularly." Dakota added, it was kind of true.
"So who's your father?" She then asked looking back to me.
"Well…" I said and rubbing the back of my neck in awkwardness. "He's closer then you think." I couldn't say it, but her face said how badly she wanted to know. "My dad…the one you married…that wolf…he's kinda… just…there." I said finally bringing myself to say it and pointing to him. Dad's eyes widened again, he didn't expect to be brought into this.
"Me?" He spat. "No way."
"It's true." Lupa replied. "You two married nearly four months after our dad."
"You had me four months after that." I added.
"But how? I'm human and she's a wolf." He asked and completely confused whereas mom was just down right embarrassed and confused.
"I think tomorrow night you turn into a wolf after Grams gives you the gift of Lycanthropy, you turned every full moon, but then you learnt to turn at will. When you fell in love, Grams reversed it so you were a wolf that turned into a human, I get my fur and eyes from, you." He stared blankly into my eyes, I wanted to laugh at his reaction, but it may not have been the best thing to do at this time. I guess he didn't take it well, because he turned around while he was deep in thought and walked a few steps away. Mom didn't seem to be fairing any better and stood staring either at him or me. Who could blame them? In this time, my mother was a Wolf and my father a Human, who would take well to that?
I padded up to him and stood opposite him, he turned to look away, but before he did I jumped up onto his chest as he gave me a puzzling look. "What are you doing?"
"Lift me." I replied.
"What?" He asked again.
"Use your power, lift me. We do this all this time." He sighed and placed his hands on my sides and moments later did. I felt my paws lift off the ground and I started to go up. At the same time his eyes shone brightly, as did mine and therefore he started to rise as well. He gasped as he looked around and down as we hovered a few inches off the floor. "We do this all the time." I said again. "You taught me how to use it, I didn't know how and I hurt some people with it before." He looked at me as we then started to descend back to the ground. "I have yours and mom's power as well as my own." I added as my paws touched the ground again. "You're my dad." He stared me in the eyes while I stayed up on his chest. It was when he crept his hands around me and I laid my head against his chest that he then understood and showed that in an affectionate hug.
"I'm a dad?" He asked as in disbelief
"My dad." I giggled. "And your little girl." He chuckled lightly as I did before I looked back over to the others who looked on with smile. But then something caught my eye. I looked passed him, Grams was stood behind him a little way but gestured for me to be quiet. I looked to my siblings to see they too had seen her just as a voiced filled our heads.
"Say goodbye, they've heard enough." I jumped off dad as we then walked back to Dakota and Lupa, Grams remained stealthy and crept around them as not to be seen. I sensed that mom and dad were puzzled as to the sudden silence and they too noticed the shift in change of the atmosphere around us.
"You have to go don't you." Mom replied.
"We can't stay, we have to go back home." Lupa answered.
"So, we won't see you again?" Scott asked again and sounding and little hurt.
"One day." Dakota replied. Grams started to walk casually towards them, but her paw steps were silent, none of us heard a thing as she approached them. But what was she going to do? "You'll see us when we're born.
"And one day you'll meet your grand-pups." I added.
"What?" Mom muttered with a grin and a tear that fell down her face.
"We're all married." Lupa answered. "I have three children."
"And I'm expecting." I added.
"You're pregnant?" Scott gasped.
"And one day you'll get to see them all. Just remember that family is everything and nothing will go wrong." I replied as Grams stepped right behind them and raised her paw to do something. But it was my own saying that suddenly made me become all fearful for them. The night they are taken is soon, we could stop all that. "WAIT!" I yelled and Grams froze in confusion and Lupa and Dakota just as puzzled. "Soon there's going to be some people that come to the Valley."
"Myka." Dakota seethed but I ignored him.
"When they do, stay away from the Valley Pack, just stay away."
"What, why?" Mom asked.
"Please." I pleaded with a tear falling down my cheek. "Just stay away." Suddenly, Grams waved her paw behind them and they fell to the floor unconscious.
"What the hell were you thinking?" Lupa snapped.
"I couldn't do it, I had to warn them."
"They have to do it, they have to be taken." Dakota replied in a much calmer tone. "If they weren't taken, then mom wouldn't have met dad, they wouldn't have found one another and Scott and mom wouldn't have had you and if they didn't have you then that means Sam would still be alive. If they didn't go then they wouldn't have done what they have done, the time we come from wouldn't have happened and the Ditori could have won."
"Nothing different can happen sweetheart." Grams added. "Everything that happened in your time must happen in this one, nothing can be different." I sighed and hung my head.
"I just can't think of the things they have to go through. I didn't think of that."
"Don't worry; if you're here then I'm sure you'll know that everything works out for the best." Grams replied as she then placed a paw on both mom and dad's head and from under her pad came a white light that shone brightly onto them as well as what looked like a white mist that came from it.
"What are you doing?" Dakota asked.
"Doing what Sirius asked me to do in this eventuality, erasing their memories. They won't remember anything about you, nothing." She smiled.
"So they won't remember us."
"Not a thing. But I will need help moving them, we should put them somewhere that won't arouse suspicion before I do this to myself."
"You're going to erase your memory?" I asked.
"I know too much, it's my duty to do it, I can't risk stopping anything in the future." She replied as she then removed her paws and stepped to the side. "Do that thing you do, take them to the cliff, I shall meet you there." She added before fading away. We stepped up to them and each placed one of our paw's on both mom and dad before Dakota jumped us to the cliff where they were thought it would be a good idea to lie them side by side as if they had fallen asleep, if any memories hadn't been erased then at least it would make it seem it was a dream. So we laid them side by side, mom under dad's arm before retreating back towards the trees. "So, I guess this is goodbye." Dakota sighed and facing Grams.
"Oh you should know better then that, I'm not going anywhere."
"Oh we know." Lupa giggled.
"Now go on, get home." But that's when I realised something, the spell should have taken us home when we found the event we were looking for, but we were still here.
"That's a thing, why aren't we home?" I questioned. "The spell should have taken us by now."
"Try another, maybe that's it." I nodded and placed my paws over my sibling's before saying one of my classics for when I want a spell to end.
"Guided spirits, hear my plea, annul this magic, so mote it be." I felt my eyes light up, but we still sat there, we hadn't moved and Grams still sat in front of us. It wasn't a spell we needed. But just to be sure I tried another and making it up as I went along. "We've done what we want and got what we need, abort this spell and make it guaranteed." Still, we stood where we were in the same time. It hadn't worked. I sighed; our mission to find what we were looking for wasn't over.
I know it's been a while, i hadn't had time to put this one up, I've had a very busy week. But that was then, this is now and here it is. I hope you enjoy it as much as the others and my other stories. Until next time. :)
