Dark Shadows II: Rebuilding Collinwood

by Daryl Wor

This is what I have for a sequel. I asked "What if?" after the end of the movie and our beloved Barnabas and Josette gave this so far. I hope you enjoy it. I'd like to do more, but I have a ton on my plate right now. Feel free to get in touch. It was a fun, fantastic movie that I still love. After watching five years of cyber dupes being hostile over it: Forget 'em! :P

23. Chapter 22: Stoking the Collinwood Heart

Chapter 23 a Brief aside two kids:

Buzz and Carolyn stepped outside the class holding hands, Buzz pulled Carolyn Stoddard around and toward him for another kiss as like they had shared earlier that day, "I need to ask you something, sweetheart," Buzz breathed lovingly at her and she noticed, saying, "Yeah! I noticed! What's up, man?"

"We're good together Carolyn, is there anything I'm missing sweetheart?"

"Nah," Carolyn told him, "I'm only wondering…"

"What? Honey?" Buzz peered his crystal blue eyes shining into her gaze as warmly as he could.

Then she trusted him to ask, "Why us? WHY? Why Wolves? Why is it We have to be this way?"

That was the question, of course, Carolyn Stoddard was the right girl to ask this of anyone to ask. "What do you mean?" Buzz wondered, "Why us? What do you mean specificially?"

Carolyn simpered at her new boyfriend, "You know, Buzz. You and I are werewolves, what the… HELL? WhY? Why do WE have to be THIS? Why?" and Buzz naturally asked his Carolyn, "What else would we be, Babe?" and she respomded, "Like anyone else our age, man!Why can't we JUST BE ANGRY teenagers like anyone ELSE our age?" and "WHY NOT?!" "Why not angry teenagers, and why do we have to be werewolves? Why?"

Buzz felt the need to answer his mistress, "I don't know, Babe, just lucky, I guess." He had no idea, he agreed why should it be they couldn't simply be angry teens and not wolves or whatever? No sense did it make to him either. Maybe they would ask the professor after this drive back "home". Whatever 'home" meant these days. If they dared to ask such things now.
