"Keep your fire!!!"
"They're not dying. She is only summoning more and more everytime we kill one."
"That's not our biggest problem."
"Haa!! Darkness won't stop you."
*Pu....pewww*
*Phooom*
"*pu..peww*
"Your animals may be able to see in the dark, but mine can see farther than they."
"Retreat!!!!!!
RETREAT!!!!!"
"The cloud is getting too dark. RETREAT!!!!"
*Boom…boom.*
*Pow*
*Pue…peww*
*Phoom*
*POW*
*POW*
POW*
*POW*
*SLIT*
*Pershuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*
"OPEN THE GATES!!!!!!!"
*Boom…BOOM….BOOM.*
"I SAID, 'OPEN THE GATES!!!!'"
"YOU HEARD HIM. LIFT THE ROPES!!!!"
*Churr….chur...churr…churrr…..churrr….churrr….churr….chur…..chur….chur…..churr…..churrr….churrrr…..churrrr...ting*
"Come on you little angel. It's time to show you what true family looks like. Now pick up your feet.
SWEEPERS!!!!
GET DOWN HERE AND CLEAN THIS PLACE UP. I WANT NO RECOLLECTION OF THIS IN THE MORNING."
"How was the battle, sir? It pains me to see so few of you return."
"It's okay. Their deaths were not in vain, for remember….."
"The dead make the roses bloom. What was brought from earth shall return and water the field it lay."
"Glad someone still remembers. Now get this prisoner in custody and make sure her cell is perfectly sound with no cracks and screws missing. Also, make it as far from the woods as possible…..with no window.
I'll call for her shortly."
"Brother, why are you doing this? I saw good in you…not death. Do you not care anymore?"
"HOLD IT!!!!"
"HOLD!!"
"HOLD!!!"
"HOLD!!!!"
"Is that what you think of me, Sister? You think your big brother does not care anymore? Since he has found a new family, will he forget his old? Maybe you should've never become queen, if you think like that. It is because I care that I am now risking my life, same as Shadow did for me."
"Brother, I came to save you. Come home with me and we can be a family again."
"Does it look like I need saving? As far as I can see, the shoe is on the other foot. See, he used his character and influence to make sure that other families were also protected. All you see…..all anyone sees…is his bad, and therefore, you judge him. Now I'm taking my skills and what I know to bring my family up so that we can do the one thing you should be doing, which is, protecting your world. Dreamworld is a place I barely remember, and yet, I'm willing to sacrifice my family to protect what is. Didn't Shadow do that as well?"
"He….he…..he did."
"Shadow brought my family to life. I bred them to be killers, and now it's time they prove it. Again, I ask. Are you certain I am the villain?
I rule all realms and do my best to protect….ALL REALMS. The only thing I see from you is that since you lost your family which wasn't perfect, you think it is ok to rage on others' families who aren't, and then use your healing to give them the best family…..you never had. Is that what God gave you the power for? See, I have no powers, and yet I know what ought to be done, and try my hardest to do it."
"Let's go, sir."
"See you. I'm off to defend some more 'Imperfect families', instead of mock them for it. Smell you later."
"Come on, Miss. This way."
"Wolf, what about the others? You said there might be more that follow."
"I did? Welp, guess Abby was willing to sacrifice all for family. Imagine that.
Send the car to the workshop to get fixed. We need it faster where we're going."
"Yes sir."
"Are the plans still set?"
"Follow me this way, please. In your absence, I made some minor…..modifications."
"Modifications?"
"Yes."
"Are the Lilies still on?"
"That's the issue. The girls can't be reached."
"I wouldn't either if all that was received were weird calls and texts. Tech may have changed but that shouldn't be our excuse to do so as well. Send two messengers with a gift basket to there premise. Tell them that the sends his condolences."
"Oh no. Please don't…"
"Fear not. Auroa didn't die. Stephanie."
"May I?"
"Hey!!! Bring them here. Family first. Heart second."
You're limping."
"....Doors open!!!"
"Come on."
"Look, I'm sorry. Wouldn't you do anything for family? I thought he was being held. As his sister, I….."
"I don't care if you're his sister or not. You're gonna have to prove true…just like everyone else.
"Is that why I have to sign all this paperwork?"
"Just stating that you indeed are the boss and our new legal guardian."
"Guess that's why not a lot of people kill their own crime boss. If you don't have great penmenship, then it's a hassle. Too much paperwork involved nowadays. You can't just kill someone and walk away. You have to kill them, sign over all the deeds, estates, transfer the accounts, and the talents. Then you can relax."
"Wolf, once you're done, then think of it. All of the Homes will be ecstatic that you are back. I think a personal tour to them all would suffice."
"That will have to wait. Gotta make sure my family is safe before I can make sure 'my family' is safe. Speaking of which, what do we have here?
"Let me go!!! Let me go!!! Hawk, your men's grip on my arms are sure to break me one of these....Wolf?"
"Hello Valentine. You know what I'm going to ask. Why did you run away this time, and where were you running to?"
"My Uncle has a place for me. I just know it. The rest of my family may not like me, but I know he does. He never stopped."
"Yea, I know he likes you. He went to his grave believing you would change. There is no Uncle for you anymore, though. Your family turned your back the moment you did what you did. Don't you see that we are trying to help you? We are giving you a home."
"I can make it on my own. You watch."
"Again, I did watch. You were pretty good actually, running for your life. Thing is, when I saw you, didn't I see you…what are those things called again? Oh yea. Weren't you in handcuffs."
"Okay, maybe I can't run forever, but I have grown smarter this time. You can't lock me up and take away my freedom forever."
*Click*
"Take this paperwork to the books and then spread the word. Alpha's back.
May joy once again fill their hearts."
"Yes sir. Glad to have you back, sir."
"Now, what should we do to you this time, Valentine, to make you believe that we only have the best of intentions for you."
"Please don't send me to the Cell. I just got out. Don't make me go back."
"Until you stop running, I have to. You may not like it, but what good is me telling you please stop? That is like a fire with no oxygen. If I don't enforce your stay, then you will scorch. Do you want that?
Hey, look at me when I'm talking to you. I said, 'Do you want that?"
"....No, Sir."
"My name is Wolf, not sir.
One of these days, me and my men will be sleeping and you will sneak out never to come back. Once my dogs finally do find you, instead of bringing back a body, they'll bring back a corpse. Understand?"
"I'm sorry. It won't happen again."
"Don't lie to me.
Richard, James, release your hold.
Valentine, Hawk may have been a bad guy but Shadow and I are not. It may seem like it with all our rules and states you have to follow, but we are not.
Can you give me a hug, please? I won't do anything.
That's it.
Valentine, you're a good kid. Just don't want to see you getting hurt. I love you and always will but just because Jesus says that He will chase us to the ends of the earth, that doesn't mean we should test His legs!!
There's that smile. Keep your head up and you'll be fine.
*Snap*
"Take her to her cell."
"Sir, that's the seventh....this month. I haven't counted the other homes yet, but I'm sure they are up as well."
"Nobody said raising a family was easy, especially a foster family."
"Where were you? It's just that…we could've used your help here."
"I can't look for homes and babysit. That's why I entrusted a few of you guys. Didn't let me down did you?"
"Well, ummm…It's just that none of us are as skilled as you nor ever will be."
"I hope you're not as skilled as me. I hope you're better, Remember my saying?"
"If God wanted us cloned then He would've made known His ways."
"Cars ready sir."
"Car?
"Oops. Was I not to tell them?"
"It's okay, Topac. It's out now."
"Car? You don't mean the Healer Car that has been traveling around carrying with it the Blue Hood? If so, then wow!!
I didn't know that you were the vigilante that towns have not stopped chanting for. You were there 'protecting us' against Hawks cruel tensions these past few years. Topac must have been your inside man then, huh? You two off saving the world together. We….I….thank you for your service. Without you, many of us would've perished under his rule. The only thing I wish to now is that...
WHAT USE IS CHANGING THE VARIABLES IF YOU DON'T EVEN SOLVE THE PROBLEM?"
"Wooh, wooh, wooh. Back it off."
"Get out of the way,Topac. You defend this coward?"
"WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THE EARTH FELL INTO THE SEA? YOU DIDN'T STOP HAWK. ALL YOU DID WAS DECREASE HIS ENERGY. TOO SCARED TO FIGHT YOUR OL MAN? AFRAID YOU AND THE REST OF US MIGHT LOSE? NEWS FLASH, WOLF. FEW OF US WOULD BE MORE THAN WILLING TO DIE FOR YOU SO THAT MANY WOULD LIVE, but that doesn't suit you does it? You have nothing to say?
"It's not me you would be defending?
"Hey, got off me. Get off me. I'm cool. I'm cool."
"Take him Downstairs."
"HEY!!!!
HEY!!!
HAWK MAY HAVE BEEN A BAD GUY, BUT AT LEAST HE HAD A BIGGER HOUSE PICKED OUT FOR US. NOW THAT YOU DESTROYED IT, DO YOU NOT SEE THAT THIS CASTLE IS NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR YOUR EVER INCREASING FAMILY? WHERE ARE WE GOING TO GO, HUH?
I SAID, WHERE ARE WE GONNA GO?
"WHERE ARE WE GONNA GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Sorry about that, Wolf. Hawk has been getting under his skin."
"I think his skin is not the only one Hawk's been crawling under. They're all staring at me."
"Keep your head down. No need to draw attention.
EHEMM!! BACK TO WORK EVERYBODY. WOLF MAY BE THE HOODED VIGILANTE BUT I DON'T NEED A HOOD TO CRACK YOUR SPINE!!!!"
"Ehermmm…ehemiraaahee…"
"Thanks, Topac."
"For what? Standing up for you? Wolf, you know I'd defend you in a heartbeat. Hell, I'd lay down my life for you."
"No, it's not that, but I pray you may never have to act upon those words. Thank you for always being there and helping keep the fire lit,"
"If I have to prove my worth, then will you please let me start with you? Here, let me heal your limp."
"GET OFF ME!!! GET OFF ME!!! WOLF JUST SAID NOT FOR YOU TO HOLD ME SO TIGHT."
"WELL, HE AINT HERE. WE ARE. NOW GET IN THERE."
"NO….NO….NOOOOOOO...HELP!!!!!"
"Hey, she said hands off."
"Ow…owww…owww…owww."
"Now that means, hands off."
"Ouch!! Ooohh…my hand.
Beat it, girl. What's it to you?"
"I don't know what Wolf has said to you, but although he may not physically be here, his sister is; and I don't think Wolf told you to be rough to her like you just were. Now the Bible says do unto others as you would have them do unto so. So, since you were rough with her, I have no choice but to be rough with you. Whose cheek do I get to slap first?"
"Ha…ha…..haha!!! Get lost little princess or else I'll have too…Huh?"
"Missed me, missed me, now you gotta…..
"Oooooo….My Christmas bells. I'm going down."
"Kneel before me. Oh, for the record, I am no Princess. I am a Queen. Queen Abby. Hiyaaa!!!! Aaaaghh!! Aaaaggh!!! *SQUISH*
*Crieaaaak…..Criirreaakkk*
"That was my brother's head you just squished open. Do unto others, eh? Welp, now I'm gonna squish you. Come here."
"Whoop. Whoop. Missed me. Come on. Can't you try a little harder, big…..oof. That was solid."
"Abby!!!"
"Ouch!!! Ouch!!! Okay, I'm sorry. Don't you know not to hit a lady. I promise that if you…ouch!! If you continue, then I will have no choice but to….okay!!!!! You asked for it.
Huuuuuuuuurrrrrrrr….....Aaaaaaaaaaaaghhhhh!!!!!"
"Huuuu!! Uuuh…Blertipp. You…you….you're a wolf."
"Yes, yes I am. And now, I'm gonna steal your heart.
"Wait, wait. No…no....nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!"
*RIP*
*Aaarmfmmmm…..noff….nofff…noff…noff..slieerrrrrrrrrrerp. Aaah. *Burp*
"Nothing like the taste of fresh blood in the morning. Happy little wolf?"
"Berrggggggrrrrr*
"Th….the….thank you."
"Oh....that? That was....oops. Got a little blood still on me. There we go. I'll just lick it off. Hi, My name is Abby. What's yours?"
"Valentine."
"Valentine? That's a sweet name. What they get you in here for?"
"I killed my brother. One day, I got so mad that he was the golden child, that while he was drawing water from the Well, I snuck up behind, stabbed him, and then threw his body down the Well so that no one could find it."
"You wanna know a secret?
That's how I killed my dad. Well, actually he was a clone, but no one will ever know. Shhh!!!! Your secret is safe with me."
