Heck yes I will!

Plus, I get to go to rehearsal tonight, which should be fun. =)

Sadie looked around as someone turned on a light, and she was temporarily blinded, even thought the light was dim. When she came to her senses, five men were staring at her, their looks mean, but... there was something else to them. Pity, maybe? She couldn't tell. Her eyes followed one of the men as he moved behind her, then placed a gun against her back.

"You fell right into the trap my dear. Now, we'll begin your trial. You've been accused of helping vampires, supplying human blood, turning humans and werewolf loyalties, and, worst of all, creating a half blood. How do you plead?"

Sadie's mind was reeling. So, it hadn't been just about hurting Cosette, Lucy and Max. The ultimate goal was to kill her; she was the root of their problems. Another gun, this time pressed to her temple.

"Guilty." She replied coolly, bowing her head.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

At least she said the right thing instead of fight against them, Evander said mentally to the others, which caused all of the others to nod in agreement. A chorus of 'Yup's echoed through the though path.

Brandon still wasn't convinced this was the right thing to do at all. They had wanted Sadie all along, and they had what they wanted. So she wasn't a distraction at all-- she was the centre of their attention.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

"So, you know your transgressions then," the voice replied, the man stepping out of shadow. He was an intimidating figure, tall, lean, with eyes as black as coal, dark skin, long black hair. He reminded Sadie of the evil villains from childhood fairytales, but this was real. "Do you know what the penalty is, for your case, my pet?"

Sadie looked up into his eyes, showing no tears, so sign of fright.

"Death," the man said, pulling out a pistol of his own, and aiming at her heart. "To your knees," he commanded, stepping forward and pushing down on her shoulder, forcing her to the ground.

"Stop," Lucy whimpered, curled up in a corner, her face bruised and bloody. "Stop!"

The man looked over at her, smiling. "Oh, don't worry. killing her will be an act of mercy, after what I do to you. And..." He walked over to a crate, then picked up something, cradling it in his arm. "The little one."

Cosette started shrieking again, tears pouring down her dirty face.

Sadie flinched, grief crossing her face. "No please! Please!"

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Sorry, I totally forgot to reply to your ooc.. xD

Sounds like fun. Isn't your performance in about three weeks now?

The vampires continued to listen in patiently, though facial expressions gradually changed to becoming more anxious. Brandon couldn't take anymore when the filthy scoundrel touched Cosette. He easily broke from Angie's grip, grabbed Blaise's gun from her own hand and stormed into the 'interrogation room', as it were.

"Get. Your. Hands. Off. Of. My. Child," he sneered, pointing the gun at the leader. "Set your minions on me, do what you like, just get the hell away from my girlfriend and my daughter."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

something like that =)

The man's face went from surprise to delight in a matter of seconds. "Oh, this is wonderful! Now that you're here, we can teach all of you a lesson. When you break the natural order of things, it only leads to trouble. The greatest punishment of all is watching the ones you love suffer, is it not?" He pointed his gun at Lucy and shot, just once. Without a sound, she crumpled to the floor, and blood pooled around her. Down the hall, Mikey felt his mouth watering, and he let out a low growl, not used to human blood.

Then the man pointed the gun at Cosette. "You come any closer, and I'll shoot the little brat. Baby or not, she is a danger to society."

Sadie screamed, "No, no, take me instead! I'll do anything, just don't hurt her!"

"Quiet you!" The man screeched.

Sadie winced as one of the men holding her kicked her in the ribs.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Angie instead held onto Mikey's arm instead and patted it reassuringly, knowing he could handle it, and wanting him to know that she thought that, to help him.

Brandon winced at the gunshot and then again when one of the men hurt Sadie. He switched his aim to him for a few seconds and said, "Do that again, and you won't live to see it through a third time."

He turned back to the leader. "Danger? Explain to me how you came up with that idea. She'll do nothing wrong."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

I can't wait, it's going to be awesome!

Mikey placed his hands on his head, wincing and moaning. "The blood... there's too much of it... I can't..." He growled again, curling up on the ground.

"She'll grow up, blending in with other human children. The problem will be, her lust for blood as she grows up, and as a child, she won't be able to control it. The children of other families will die because of her, and her powers will grow stronger, and she could wreak havoc upon the while city!" The leader looked at Cosette with disgust, snorting once.

Sadie said, "Leave her alone or I'll kill you myself!" She tried to get up, but then felt another gun being pushed against her. "Cosette! Cosette, don't cry. Mommy's here, daddy's here, we won't let anyone harm you."

"Nor will I," Prudence said, darting into the room. She bared her fangs, and looked quite terrifying as she snarled, "Leave them alone, Emilio."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I bet =D

Another I won't get to see, though! D:

Angie crouched beside him. She wrapped her arms around him tightly and did everything in her power to distract him. "Shh.. It's okay, Mikey. You can handle it, I know you can. I believe in you. Just don't think about it, close off your senses except for your hearing and touch, so you can only feel me, okay? Can you try to do that for me?"

"You don't know that. If she gets used to it now, she'll be as strong as the rest of us at resisting. She'll have years to get used to it. Her human part will help as well," Brandon said. "What would you know about it, anyway, wolf? So few exist, none around these parts. You're just biased, and you want to get rid of her now because it's easier for you." When Prudence appeared, he, without looking at her, asked, "You know him?"

Back in a bit. I'm going to the shop

 

[Bunny_grl07]

Okiday, see you when you get back!

well, at least there will be pictures =)

Mikey nodded weakly, then wrapped his arms around her, concentrating solely on her and their time together. "Angie, I love you," he whispered, burying his face in her hair. "I'll always love you, okay? And I'm sorry for putting you through all this... crap I have going on."

Prudence said, "Know him? He's been on my tail now for nearly fifty years... and before he knew anything about vampires, and himself, we went to the prom together. When was it? 1946, a year after world war two. Time flies, huh..."

Sadie squirmed, breaking free from the wolves, and charging at the leader. "You give me my baby!" She yelled, snatching Cosette from his arms, then running to where Lucy lay.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Yes, there will

Angie held him closer still and smiled slightly at the fact that she was helping him cope. "I love you, too, Mikey. You know I do," she whispered, "And don't you worry about this. We've all been through it here, and I know it's hard, you just have to wait for it to pass, and you'll be stronger for it afterwards, okay?"

Brandon seemed relieved that at least Sadie had gotten Cosette. He moved quickly, to stand in front of them and Lucy, so that Emilio couldn't get to them. "How interesting," he said, in reply to what Prudence had said. "So you must know a lot about what makes this guy tick?"

 

[Bunny_grl07]

:3

So, do you know what kinds of shows your school plans on doing next year?

Mikey nodded quickly taking a few deep breaths, even though he didn't necessarily need them at all. Somehow, it made him feel a bit better, because he smelled Angie. "I believe you," he murmured. "Just... hold me, please. Evander, you can go on ahead, we'll be fine here."

Prudence said, "Just an uncanny-- and twisted-- sense of justice and morality. Please, shoot him, get this over with." She went up to Emilio and kicked him. "How dies it feel? You're the defenseless one now!"

The other wolves left quietly, not wanting to be a part of this madness any further.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Well, since we're going on tour we're not doing a musical. That's usually the only show we do anymore ):

Evander nodded quietly and went through, along with Blaise, to help everyone else with the scene in the other room. Angie just nodded and happily did as he'd asked her to, holding him close. She planted a soft kiss on his cheek and asked him, "Are you feeling a little better?"

Brandon passed the gun over to Prudence. As much as he hated the guy in front of him, he couldn't bring himself to pull the trigger. Had he done more to his family, he wouldn't have even considered backing down, but he just couldn't at that point. He then quickly turned to check on his said family, to see how they were doing. "Are you alright?" he asked Sadie.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

Aw darn! Still, a tour sounds like a blast!

Mikey nodded weakly, then closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down even more. He smiled slightly and said, "Angie, you're the best, believe me. I'm so glad you're here for me."

Prudence said, "Look away, everyone. This is going to get ugly." She aimed the gun, then pulled the trigger, closing her eyes slowly. "How's that for justice? Your reign of terror is over." She put the gun away, then turned to the family. "I'll have to tell you some other "acts of morality" he's done... at a later time, of course."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I know! It's going to be awesome! <33

Plus, I'm joining Jazz Band, which means that I'll get to take my guitar along =D

"It's my pleasure, Mikey. You're worth it, of course," Angie replied, running her fingers through his hair gently. "I knew you'd get through this just fine. You just needed someone else to tell you."

"Much later, thank you," Brandon said, chuckling humourlessly, checking up on Cosette and then Lucy. "She doesn't look too good," he said.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

is fb chat messing up? Dx

And that's awesome?

Mikey nodded weakly, letting his head loll to the side, closing his eyes. "Angie, my head still hurts. Does it always feel like this?" He asked softly, opening one eye slightly to peer up at her, exhausted.

Sadie said, "Luckily, he only shot her arm. If he had aimed any higher, it would have been her heart that had gotten shot."

Cosette was whimpering loudly, cuddling close to her mothers chest, her face streaked with dirt... and something else. "Brandon, she has a cut on her forehead!.. And a couple scratches on her arm! And there's a bruise!"

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Yeah, I'm sorry! D:

"It will for a while, until you get more used to it," Angie replied, nodding, putting a hand on his forehead, "We'll get you fed when we get home and that should help. And then a good night's sleep, so that hopefully you'll feel much better in the morning. It wasn't exactly the best way to first be exposed, but at least you'll get used to it quicker now."

Brandon looked down at their child. He smiled softly and took off his t-shirt, using it to clean her up a bit, to get the the worst of the dirt and the blood off. She already looked better by that point. He said, "Don't panic, love, she's not badly hurt. And she'll heal quickly because she's part vampire. look here, it's already starting to get better." He pointed to the cut on Cosette's forehead which was, indeed, already visibly healing before them.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

It's okay xD I was just wondering

Mikey nodded, then pulled himself to his feet. "I almost went in their, to get the blood... I could have killed Lucy. I would never have forgiven myself, especially seeing Jude again... Jude! We have to call him!" Mikey went down the hallway, to make the phone call.

Sadie kissed Cosette's cheek, but then noticed new blood on Cosette's cheek. "Wha--" Sadie coughed, hacked would be the proper word, and blood splattered everywhere. Cosette whimpered again, then squealed unhappily. "My ribs... it's..." She suddenly gasped for air. "Can't..." Another coughing fit.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Fb chat always fails on me xD

"It wouldn't have happened, Mikey. We could have held you back. But you should call him," Angie said. She got up and waited for him in the hallway while he called Jude. "It was just her arm that he got, tell him that, so he doesn't panic so much, okay?" she told Mikey.

Brandon's expression changed again quickly. He held his shirt to her mouth and urged her to take it from him, to cough into. Muffling it would help calm the cough down quickly. "Really, we need to bandage them up right now, to keep them intact." He looked to Evander and asked him for his t-shirt, which he gladly gave. Brandon tore it into one long strip and then pulled up Sadie's just enough to expose her ribs. "I know it hurts, but breathe right in for me, please, babe. I'll get you strapped up and then we'll get you some better help.."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

sad face tiem? Yes. D:

Still, fb chat is generally a fail.

Mikey came back a few minutes later, saying, "Jude is on his way right now. He sounded okay, but I'm pretty sure he was really upset. We just need to keep calm when he gets here, and give Lucy to him right away." He nodded slightly, with a tired sigh, sitting down on the floor.

Sadie still kept coughing, struggling to breathe at all. "He kicked them... inwards... my... can't..." More blood, all over the t-shirt she coughed into. "Hospital, now!" Her face grew paler and paler, her vision getting blurry.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Yes. Sadface D:

That's true.. I hate fb chat sometimes ):

Angie nodded and sat on the floor next to him, he head on his shoulder. "Okay, good. I think she'll be alright, he just needs to get her home.."

Evander appeared a few minutes later, carrying Lucy gently, who he then set down with her back up straight against the wall. "Jude's coming for you, okay?" he told her softly, wiping up the last of the blood on her arm, offered her a small smile, and then stood up straight.

"Evander, where've you been hiding that all along? I didn't know you worked out," Angie said to him, causing both her and Evander to share a chuckle.

"I guess that's one thing you don't know about me," he replied. "You also may not know that Prudence.. She's my girlfriend now."

"I know, I know. Just stay with me, I'll get you there as fast as I can, Sadie," Brandon said, having finished, and picked her up in his arms. He didn't wait for anyone, he just burst through a window, shielding Sadie and Cosette from the glass perfectly and darting to the hospital. They arrived in a matter of minutes, and nurses took Sadie in straight away. But before they could wheel her away on a hospital bed, Brandon gave her a loving kiss on the cheek and squeeze of her hand.
