A/N:: Alright it had been awhile since my last boom of stories. Sadly I do not have another story in mind after this one but I hope this one is at least amusing in the least. If you hate Vivi you will probably like it. It will probably not be laugh out loud funny but we can just say it is so you cannot sue me if I somehow tickle your funny bone. I know this notes have been lacking I apologize. I will work on this I promise. Without further ado… The story!!!
~~~
The night was young, and the stars were shining. Their reflection shined in tune with the full moon against the puddles that were beginning to freeze into patches of ice. The weather was causing travel to be a big problem and for that the people of Lee decided to stay over. The night was young but the weather made all those who dared to enter outside think twice. For that reason everyone was sitting in the great hall. Whisper and Enigma were both reading, Rhys and Sarah were taking a nap, Damon was sitting with a bored look on his face with Damian sleeping in his lap. Walter was getting them all things they needed, let it be another blanket, something to drink, or a new book. Everyone was accepting the fact they needed to spend the ‘day’ together seeing this was the warmest room. Not to mention no one was leaving this castle any time soon.
Everyone was in the room save for Innocence. She was busy doing something no one was sure of and it worried a few people. However when a knock on the door was heard everyone snapped their attention towards the strange knock. Enigma putting down her book went to the door and allowed Walter to take a seat. When she opened the door she was surprised, it was Jezebelle bundled up in layers with her uncle leaning again the small woman. Jezebelle gave her a happy smile, “Hello Dovie… Um. Sorry to interrupt your night but I found Lion fall in the middle of the path.” Enigma gave her and small smile before frowning at her uncle. She took him from Jezebelle and allowed her to come in to the warm room as thanks.
Jezebelle closing the door took Rob’s right arm while Enigma took his left. The two of them then took him to the sofa where Walter and Whisper both stood up quickly so he could lay down. Just then Innocence game down the stairs, she had found the things she had needed. She went to pass them out when she noticed her uncle. That caused her to drop everything and freak out. “Ah! Sister what happened to uncle?!” Enigma noticing her sister just bent forward to pick up the fallen blankets, sweaters, and scarves. She then dumped them over Robert. “Nothing serious. Jezebelle just found him… I think he is sick.” Walter bent forward for a peek and placed a hand on Robert’s forehead before flinching.
“Yes… I believe you are right. I shall be right back.” With that Walter left the room once again. Innocence frowned, she was glad it was not anything to bad but… If Jezebelle had not found him he would have gotten really badly hurt. Damon at this moment stood up carefully and stood next to the sisters. He looked down to see Robert’s face was flushed and he was panting slightly. “… You should probably get him out of his damp clothing, he looks like he has a fever.” Innocence looked at him surprised before leaning and catching her sister’s eyes. Enigma just sighed, “Well do not look at me, I am not changing him. Knowing aunt if she caught wind she would behead me with a glare…” Innocence frowned, it was true. At this point Rhys woke up and watched silently.
And knowing her damn aunt she found out one way or another… With a sigh she noticed Walter was coming back. He had his hands full with a bowl of cool water in one hand, a change of clothes in the other. He also had a cloth across his shoulder. Innocence and Enigma watched as he placed the wet cloth on Robert’s forehead and waited a moment. He went to say something but then Robert’s eyes snapped open and he sprung forwards before looking around confused. “How did I-” Enigma kneeled next to him and made him sit back again. “Jezebelle found you… What the hell were you doing walking around sick?” Robert paused a moment before giving a cheesy grin.
“Uh… Duty called?” Enigma glared at him, “What are you a barbarian? Use the bathroom…” Robert just chuckled before coughing. Enigma frowned before it melted into worry. Innocence kneeled with her sister and looked up at Robert. “Seriously what did you do it? You could have gotten really hurt!” Robert just looked surprised for a moment before he grinned again, “Lucky got out. I had to go after him.” Enigma sighed before rubbing her temples. “Uncle…” Innocence looked confused, Lucky was the cat that Vivi had tried to get rid of… She had heard Lucky was no longer living with them… She looked at her sister who was not buying the story. Robert held the grin before sighing.
“Alright if you must know your aunt needed something.” Enigma froze for a moment before holding an icy look. “Which one?” Robert just gave her a blank look, “Cruella Devill…” Enigma fought the urge to smack him but Innocence caught the drift of who it was. Mary would never be mean enough or selfish enough to ask for something that could possibly wait. “…How did you get sick uncle?” Robert gave Innocence another surprised look before smiling, “That is something you do not need to worry about.” Robert then tilted his head back and looked Walter in the eyes. “Hey, can I get some of that soup you are so wonderful at making?”
Walter looked surprised at the request before making a dramatic bow with a grin on his face. He then left the room to start making some soup. Enigma sighing got up from her knees. She then looked at Damon and then looked at Rhys who was awake… Walter was busy but… “Hey, uncle you need to change.” Robert looked at her surprised at the statement. “I do?” Innocence pointed to his wet pants from falling in a puddle. Robert however just grinned, “I knew I forgot to do something… Told you duty called.” Enigma just fought back a grin and tried to look serious. “That is not fun-” Before she could finish she heard Innocence start laughing. Sighing she put her hands up in defeat.
Rhys smirked, “Man you really are getting old.” Robert noticing Rhys chuckled, “I know I have such a horrible memory… Who are you again? Oh wait that is right you are my cousin George. Come over here!” Rhys kept his smirk at the continuing joke. Damon watched with mild amusement before going to sit down again. Damian at all the noise woke up. He looked around before noticing Robert.” Baaaat!” Innocence looked back at him before smiling. He was trying to say Robert again but it only was able to say Bert which came out sounding like bat. It was amusing seeing what she heard about vampires. It was amusing how he had his own little nicknames for everyone. The funniest had to be Enigma’s as he called her Ma and she had taken it the wrong way the first couple of times.
Robert just waved at Damian from his resting position. Damian giggled and clapped before looking up at Damon who just glanced back with a semi bored expression on his face. Walter came back with the soup which Robert sat up for. Walter had expected he would only need one bowl but after fifteen seconds of the spoon on the table and Robert’s face being hid by the bowl he set it on the table and it was empty. He then smirked. “Thank you.” Walter just laughed before taking the bowl back. Innocence then noticed he had a tomato mustache and started to laugh. Robert looked at her amused, “What?” Enigma at this point was laughing as well. Robert looked at the two and then gave an confused expression to Damon. “What? Seriously I am missing the joke here.”
Damon blinked twice before laughing. He however was able to point out the mustache. Robert taking his tongue just tried to lick it off which made the girls laugh harder. Damon just shook his head in amusement. Finally Robert grabbed the cloth meant for his head and rubbed his face. After a moment another knock was heard. This caused the girls to finally quell their laughter. Enigma standing up rubbed the tears from her eyes and went to answer the door. When she did she was surprised to see her Aunt Mary standing there. Mary hearing the door opened and listened to the breathing of the one who opened the door before smiling. “Ah Enigma, good I got the right house.” Enigma just looked at her amused before allowing her to step in before closing the door.
Mary then frowned, “My god, if I had to listen to that wench complain one more time… Oh did Robert make it here? That woman needed some stupid cloth for her newest project… I tried looking for him but I could not find him.” Enigma frowned before sighing, “So that is what happened? Well he is here.” Mary smiled at that, “Ah good. Then no real harm done.” Enigma rose her brow before following her aunt into the room. Robert noticing Mary gave her a worried look, “Mary you shou-” Before he could finish she took of her shoe and threw it with deadly position at his head. “I was worried about you idiot! I did not raise you so your wench of a wife could kill you!” She paused for a moment before smiling, “Innocence come her and give me a hug.”
At that moment Innocence was staring wide eyed in shock at the direct hit at her uncle’s head via flying shoe. She then heard the request, standing she went over to her aunt and hugged her. Mary feeling her arms wrapped her own arms around Innocence and picked her up in a bear hug. Innocence squeaked in surprise before laughing. Mary then went over to where Damon and Damian was. Sitting down she pouted, “I missed the period of picking those two girls up… Oh well.” She then poked a finger softly in Damian’s cheek. This caused him to giggle and start nibbling on the finger. Mary just smiled and allowed him to.
Robert recovering rubbed his head and frowned. He then with a sigh tossed the shoe back at her. She snapped her free hand out and caught it before putting it on her now cold foot. Robert then sighed and leaned back. He was feeling dizzy again, to much excitement. Enigma noticing all the people now flooding in wondered if it would be wise to call the night earlier… It was not exactly old yet but Robert was and she wanted him to get some rest. She figured Mary would be staying to avoid being stuck with Vivi and she could not blame the woman. Vivi was hardly someone you would want to be stuck in a room with.
Robert was starting to fall asleep with his neck craned backwards but Enigma walked behind him and propped his head up with her hands. “Uncle do you want to look your age? You cannot sleep in random places anymore in awkward positions.” Robert whined mocking a child before he went to lay back again. The moment he did his nose closed up and he sprung up again. Enigma sighed and Rob whined again. Mary then taking her finger from Damian forced Damon to replace her finger before she stood up and sat next to Robert, pressing his head to her shoulder. Enigma happy about some neck support went and sat next to Damon, taking Mary’s spot.
Robert then opened one eye. “Innocence? Can you do me a favor?” Innocence who had been standing where Mary left he went over to his side and tilted her head. “Sure, what can I do for you?” Robert hid his grin, “Well can you sing a bit?” Innocence looked surprised before she blushed, “Why?” Robert pouted, “Well… Your singing is nice and I am not feeling so well…” Innocence looked at him for a moment before she began playing with her hair. “… What do you want to hear?” Robert pulling a few music sheets from his pocket handed them to her. Surprised she took them and then glared at him. “Are you sure you are really sick and this is not just some long very well acted prank?”
Mary pointed to Damon before pointing to Walter. “Those two… Do they know how to act?” Innocence gave it a thought before sighing. She had a point, Enigma only let Walter off the hook cause she needed him alive and Damon was horrible at acting… “Alright then…” Walter pouted from his area leaning against the wall. “Hey…” Innocence just grinned at him before looking at the music. “Uncle, I cannot sing these songs, some of them need music and I have no one to play the music for me…” Robert nodded slowly, “I know, that is why you shall take the piano while singing, your sister can take the violin, and the pretty boy butler can take the guitar.” Walter choked at being called a pretty boy which caused Rob to smirk.
Innocence sighed before she looked at Enigma. Whisper who had been silent up to this point proceeded to stand up and get Enigma’s prized violin. She then handed it to Enigma before sitting back down. Enigma being handed her violin sighed. Damon saving her the trouble took her hand out of Damian’s now sleeping mouth and replaced it with his own just in time to keep Damian asleep. Enigma wiping her hand dry looked at Innocence. Innocence looked surprised before sighing. Moving towards the piano, Walter grabbed the guitar Jezebelle had made as a gift. He knew how to play but he never really was the type to play for others. Nor did he really have the time to practice. Innocence leaning back tilted her head back so she was looking at Robert upside down.
“You better enjoy this…” Righting herself up she muttered ‘I cannot believe I am doing this’ before she started to play the piano. Enigma waited a moment before she placed the violin to her chin and started to play with the piano. Walter waited for the cues Innocence would give him for the guitar parts. After a moment he no longer needed the cues and Innocence just sung the song. Robert and Mary sat on the sofa with grins on their faces, happy to hear a song from so long ago. It of course in their opinion was much better then the original but that was obviously cause it was, not because of annnnnything else.
“Makin' my way downtown,
Walkin' fast,
Faces pass and I'm homebound.
Starin' blankly ahead,
Just makin' my way,
Makin' a way through the crowd.
And I need you,
And I miss you,
And now I wonder...
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
Tonight.
It's always times like these
When I think of you,
And wonder if you ever think of me.
'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong.
Livin' in your precious memory.
'Cause I need you,
And I miss you,
And now I wonder...
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
Tonight.
I, I, don't wanna let you know
I, I, drown in your memory.
I, I, don't wanna let this go.
I, I, don't.
Makin' my way downtown,
Walkin' fast,
Faces pass and I'm homebound.
Starin' blankly ahead,
Just makin' my way,
Makin' a way through the crowd.
And I still need you,
And I still miss you,
And now I wonder...
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
Would pass.. us by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
oh oh
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you.
If I could just hold you....
Toniiiiight.
”
After she finished she looked at both her sister and Walter. Both seemed pretty amused with the song but with a look at Robert and Mary she could tell they wanted more music. She looked back at the two helpers again and they both shrugged. It seemed they were up for it if she was. Sighing she spun on her piano bunch and looked at the group. Rhys was drifting off again, Damon seemed rather relaxed too. Sighing she leaned back and grabbed the music before changing it. It needed guitar, drums, and vocals only. So no piano or violin was needed. Enigma sitting next to Innocence rested her head on Innocence’s shoulder. Innocence smiled before she began singing. Enigma helping with the back up with Robert and Walter helping as well.

Innocence looked at Robert and he seemed to be relaxed. He had a goofy smirk on his face and his eyes were closed. She looked and saw Mary was also smiling with a relaxed expression on her face. Innocence smiled and relaxed. That was until Damian snapped his eyes opened and started to cry. Damon looked confused and glanced at Innocence for help. Innocence trading spots with Walter went over and grabbed Damian who just cried harder. Enigma rested her head against Walter’s shoulder and frowned. It had been suddenly. Enigma then noticed Rhys was staring at the hallway leading towards the door with a slightly feral look on his face.
She went to ask what was going on but she heard doors slamming and a couple of screams. Enigma frowned, she looked at Innocence who gave her a worried look in return. Enigma standing up went to go to see what was going on but was stopped when she saw Vivi turn the corner with Marleigh in one hand and Satisfaction in the other. Mercy was following Vivi trying to get Satisfaction down. Vivi tossed the maid randomly and held onto Satisfaction. Mercy kept trying to get her down which caused Vivi to snap and picked him up before tossing him at Robert who caught him. Enigma glared. “Put her down…” Vivi snarled with a frown.
“After you explain why Robert never came back.” Enigma had a blank look, she went to reply but Mary beat her to the punch. “Would you return to yourself?” Vivi snapped her head towards Mary and snarled out the words, “SHUT UP!” Robert held onto Mercy as he buried his face into Robert’s chest. Robert noticed that the tensions were high again. He loved Vivi but he was wondering why she was such a buzz kill… She knew he was sick, he had no control over the fact he fainted. He would die for her… Shame she could not see that. Innocence seeing her aunt had placed Damian back in Damon’s arms before pressing herself closer next to Damon.
Vivi hearing the crying snapped around. She noticed the idiot who had beat her the first time along with her slut of a niece. She then grinned looking at the little human girl she was holding onto. “Want to take a flying lesson?” Satisfaction just looked at her with fear in her eyes, unable to answer. Vivi taking it for a yes, arched her arm back and proceeded to toss her. Innocence opened her eyes wide and saw she was aimed at them but was going to high for her to simply land in her lap. Thinking quickly she stood up and caught Satisfaction before the blow caused her to fall over the back of the sofa and they landed on the floor.
Satisfaction let out a cry of pain which alarmed Innocence. She sitting up looked and saw nothing really wrong with the little girl. Placing her in a hug she stood up and glared at Vivi who snarled under her breath. Innocence saw Mercy was with Robert, she looked down at Satisfaction who was looking at Mercy. Walking carefully she dodged her aunt’s arms and placed Satisfaction next to Mercy so the two of them could be together. She then glared at Vivi who snarled, “Surrounded by your useless brood and you suddenly get the will to fight me… Just wait…” Damon snarled at that comment and Damian just cried harder.
Mary then sighed, “If you cannot even get your own stuff from the store and need your poor husband to get it, how do you hope to ever get to cause her problems?” Innocence froze, that was right, Mary did not know. She went to say something but Vivi just let out a crazed laugh. “Oh you stupid bitch, you have no clue what I can do, or what I have done already!” Rhys snarled and Sarah who had woken up at this point gripped onto his arm slightly. Mary was silent for a moment, before she tilted her head up and in a emotionless icy tone laced with undertones of blood thirst spoke, “…What?” Vivi not hearing the tone just grinned before she began to list things off.
“If you must know, I have broken bones, pushed her useless ass down stairs, I have carved so many truths into her flesh, and of course I am going to start on her son soon enough. The son of something so useless is even more worthless. Congrats you little whore, you are no longer the most useless thing on this earth!” She then let out another string of laughter. Mary was silent before she forcefully pushed Robert off her shoulder. Robert snapped his head at Mary with alarm on his face. “Mary don-” It was to late however. Mary had already grabbed Vivi by the arm and twisted it into an awkward angle causing Vivi to arch her back to lesson the pain. Mary just gripped her arm and pulled it harder. She then pressed her cheek against Vivi’s and spoke into her ear. “No one who is blood is allowed to hurt my family and you bitch, are the farthest from family…”
Robert just watched with a look of urgency on his face. Mary was doing it again, he looked at Innocence who looked back with fear, surprise, and alarm. Robert wanted to stop her but he had sobbing children on his chest and… While he would die for her, he could not deny she was asking for this… He held his breath before he let it out. He could only watch and hope Mary would not kill her by accident… Vivi went to say something else but Mary keeping Vivi’s arm at the awkward angle let go just before winding back her leg and slamming it into Vivi’s exposed stomach. This caused Vivi to go flying a few feet and scream. Mary then looked at Robert. “Did you know?”
Robert froze, he felt like a child again, “Well I-” He started off slowly but Mary just snarled, “DID YOU!?” Robert frowned, “Yes…” He could not lie but he knew what this meant… Mary paused for a moment before turning back towards Vivi who was starting to stand. “Well this means you have to die…” Vivi looked at her in surprise before grinning, “Oh please, like you cou-” Before she could finish Mary had winded her foot again and kicked her in the face knocking her back further. Robert handed the children to Innocence who took them and sat next to Damon. Mary proceeded to kick and twist Vivi.
Enigma watched in alarm, she had moved while standing so she was now next to Walter who watched just as surprised. Suddenly while Damian was taking a deep breath for another loud scream a bone being snapped could be heard. That caused Enigma to wince and turn away. Robert then wrapped his arms around Mary and lifted her up, she froze and allowed herself to be brought over. Placing her down, she started towards Vivi who was moaning in pain. Robert held her back, “Stop it sister, please…” Mary paused before looking at him, “Stop what?” Robert sighed, “Please…” Mary paused before she stopped fighting. “I will… When she is dead.” Robert felt torn again and Innocence noticed.
Putting the kids so they were hiding against Damon she stood up and went to Mary. “Please stop… It is not that big of a deal. Seriously, we came here to have fun and mellow out right?” Robert gave Innocence a surprised look but it melted into a thankful one as Mary seemed to calm down. That was until she grabbed Innocence gently and brought her over to Vivi. “Kick her… She has kicked you while you were done and you deserve this much at least.” Innocence looked at her with horror, she looked at Robert but he just sighed. Innocence pulled her leg back and softly kicked the woman hoping her overdramatic scream would make it seem worse then it had been.
The scream worked, the only probably was Vivi had used her good arm to grab Innocence by the ankle and dig her nails into her flesh. Innocence bit back an scream and tried to shake her leg free. Vivi snarled and just dug deeper. Mary noticed something was wrong and took her foot and swung it into Vivi’s back. That caused her to leg go and Innocence hopped backwards. She then looked at Robert who seemed quite upset over the whole ordeal. Innocence then had an idea. “Aunt Mary…” Mary stayed quiet but tilted her head to look at Innocence. “I have an idea… Uncle loves her so much… Lets not kill her but along the lines of your revenge do all those things she did to me to her… You already broke her arm… All you need to do is pour tea over her head.”
Mary paused for a moment, she then looked towards Walter. “Get me some tea…” Walter nodded and with Enigma gripping at him, he went to the kitchen to make the woman some tea. Mary then looked at Innocence, “I know she did more then just that… She had bragged about pushing you down the stairs and breaking your ribs… Among pushing you out a window.” Innocence gave a cheesy smile and waved her hands in front of her, “She was um… Gloating… You know she was so caught up she tried to make it seem like she was uh… Doing all these things to make you upset which worked. You cannot listen to everything she says…”
Damon bit back a comment. He had no idea why she was defending the bitch. He then noticed the look on Robert’s face. Mary paused for a moment before she was presented the tea. Grabbing the pot she poured herself a cup. She then gave the cup a sip before she dumped the whole pot over Vivi causing her to let out a long scream. That then caused Rhys to groan and Damian to sob harder. Mercy fainted against Damon’s chest at all the emotion that he was not used to feeling. Innocence noticed and she poked the pot so it was pouring onto Vivi’s hair instead of her head. It caused the scream to crease slightly.
Innocence then took the pot and gave it back to Walter who took it. Mary was going to do the next thing but Robert suddenly collapsed. Innocence noticed and left Mary’s side to help her uncle. She patted his cheek and flinched, his fever was bad. He was panting and seemed to be in pain. Mary seemed to be getting ready to continue in on Vivi which almost shocked Innocence. Mary had always been so caring… She never saw her like this before. Enigma and Walter looked at each other before looking at Mary. Mary was frozen next to Vivi who was moaning. Innocence waited to see if she would come over and when she did not move Innocence started to tear up. “Auntie Mary…” Mary heard the tone and suddenly she switched back.
She left Vivi and went over to Innocence. She placed a hand on Robert’s forehead and frowned, she then patted Innocence before with her help, they got Robert back on the sofa. Mary then let herself be used as a pillow as Innocence placed the wet cloth on his forehead. She then took one of the fallen blankets over him. With a sigh she saw Walter and Enigma checking on Vivi. She was out from the pain. With the stress killed Innocence left her uncle who was now in her good aunt’s hands. She then went over the maid. “Are you alright?” She just nodded and held her head. Some blood was coming from it but she was awake and seemed alright. She then went over to the kids to see if they were okay as well. With a brief look at Rhys she noticed he was relaxing as well.
She then left the room to get first aid. First she went to the fallen maid. She wrapped a good amount of bandage around her head and allowed her to return to her room. She then went over to Mercy and Satisfaction for the small scratches and bruises. She then looked at Vivi with a slight frown. She looked at Whisper and Jezebelle who had been watching in shock. They were calm as well. She then looked at Enigma, as if in silent agreement. Walter was released from Engima’s grip and he proceeded to pick her up and bring her to the table. He put her down and Innocence started to splint her broken arm, dab her face clean, and wrap all the small cuts she had gotten.
Right as she was wrapping Vivi’s head, her eyes snapped open and she glared at Innocence. That caused her to freeze for a moment in fear. She then glared and continued to wrap the bandage. Vivi was confused to where she was but she just glared at Innocence. Whisper to avoid causing more drama went to her room and Jezebelle went to go back home to avoid being a trigger. Damon kept holding onto the kids and Rhys just allowed Sarah to hold onto him while he began to glare at Vivi. Enigma and Walter sat next to Damon and simply watched. After a moment Vivi spoke, “Why the hell are you helping me?” Innocence frowned, “Because, Uncle loves you…” Vivi snorted and winced, “Liar… I do not need your pity either way.”
Innocence paused for a moment before pouting, “He does love you… He would have let Aunt Mary kill you if he did not love you like he does… And I do not pity you, I am to worthless to be able to process such emotions…” Finishing the wrapping to the head she went to stand up. Vivi however stopped her, “Sarcasm…” Innocence just looked at her before she pointed to herself “I am not able to process this sarcasm either, but you should go to sleep so you can start healing.” She then went over to Damon, picking up Mercy and Satisfaction. She left the room to put them in another room. She figured placing them with the nice maid would be something but they were both calmer now and figured letting them sleep alone would be fine. They would have each other anyways.
When she came back she noticed that Rhys and Sarah had left the room and it was only her uncle, her aunts, her sister, Walter, and Damon who was still holding Damian. Moving to Damon she picked Damian up and sat in Damon’s lap. Vivi glared at Innocence, “You know when you do that stuff in public it makes you come off as a whore…” Innocence felt Damon hold his breath, Innocence looked at Vivi surprised before she broke in a smile, “But it is fun… Plus if you do it with the one you love it is hardly a crime. It is a show of affection. I bet you would make Uncle’s day if you did it when you are both feeling better.” Vivi looked at her surprised at the lack of depression in the response.
Vivi just attempted again, “… Such a stupid thing to say… Stupid girl.” Innocence just rolled with the punches again, “I may be stupid but I am happy.” Enigma looked at her sister and Innocence smiled with glee. Enigma just rolled her eyes with her own smile growing. Vivi saw the two of them and grumbled, it was so unfair… Here she was, having to deal with so much scum and she could not even get a good reaction, among the fact her husband was running to his damn sister leaving her alone, and her stupid nieces are having sisterly moments… She never even had a sister it was so unfair… Mary noticing the change of emotional currents waited a moment.
“I think we should go to sleep now…” Enigma and Walter agreed then they stood up. Innocence was not all that tired, at least not until she felt herself relax and noticed the emotions tired her out. Robert was still out and Innocence wanted to go to sleep but she knew she had to help her family. Handing Damon Damian again she sprung up to go help Mary with Rob. She however bent forward and gave Damon a little kiss on the nose before whispering, “I will be up in a moment.” She then went to Mary and helped her uncle. Enigma with a sigh helped also, Walter went along to carry Vivi who seemed rather unhappy to be carried.
They were both taken to a spare room. Enigma and Walter left right away to go to their rooms, Innocence stayed to make sure she could give Mary a room. Vivi was awake and waited a moment before asking, “Why are you so close with your sister?” It was an honest question, and it was so innocent it almost caused Innocence to question if she was hearing things. The look of partial embarrassment showed that it was not just hearing things. She paused for a moment before shrugging, “Because… I am not sure why but I just feel a connection to her that makes me feel safe… I am not sure if I could explain it in words… It just feels nice…”
Vivi sighed, “Fine…” Innocence looked confused, “Do you have a sister?” Vivi growled, “No… I was an only child.” Innocence looked surprised, “Wow… Well I am sure Mary could be your sister.” Vivi snorted at the idea before growling lightly. “She hates me…” Innocence pouted, “I do not always get along with sister, sisterhood and even brotherhood is never always happy. Just look at Damon and Rhys or Uncle Rob and Aunt Mary. Even father and Uncle Rob had their moments…” Vivi was silent for a moment, Innocence then looked at Mary. “I think the two of you would have fun together if you gave it a try… As far as I care this never happened and everything in the past is forgotten. It would be nice if we could be a family…”
What was left anyways, from what she knew her other uncle was dead, her father was dead, her mother was dead… Her only living family save for her sister was in this room. Although if she thought about it, Damian was her family as well and if things went right so would Damon. Which she never actually gave thought to but he had to have parents… Although from their lack of appearance she guessed they were either out of the picture of passed. She would have to ask him sometime… She had remembered him mentioning his mother but never his father. Hearing Vivi’s voice again she snapped out of her thoughts. “I suppose I can try…” Innocence looked at Mary who nodded softly.
Mary then yawned and Innocence took her arm in a hug. She then looked back at Vivi, “I bet you will enjoy it once you try, and after you get better I can help you understand why I act so affectionate in public, uncle will probably enjoy it if you did it too. Well see you tomorrow night. Ring if you need something…” She then took Mary and led her to her room. Getting Mary comfortable she went to her old room. She was so surprised at the sudden turn of events. After all those years… It seemed Vivi was not exactly the evil she came off as… Not that she was totally over the fear of memories but she could try for the sake for everyone. If it meant more laughs she would try her very best.
Reaching her room and opening her door she noticed Damon was comfortable on the bed, Damian napping on Damon’s chest. Innocence smiled at the scene before closing the door. She then crossed the distance and lay down on the bed. The movement caused Damon to open an eye. He gave her a worried look, “Are you ok? You took longer then I figured it would take.” Innocence just smiled softly at him before resting her head on his shoulder. “It was fine, my aunt just had some questions…” Damon looked confused for a moment before he wrapped his arm around her waist. At least she seemed happy, Damian shifted slightly before falling back to sleep. Innocence felt herself fall asleep, the emotions were so tiring. After a moment Damon fell asleep to. Hoping tomorrow will be less stressful…

A/N:: Holy shit! Vivi was actually civilized by the ending of this! The world is ending! OH MAH GAWG! … Well anyways I figure you all think this is the end of the story and technically it is but after I get a few questions answered I plan on continuing this story. Only it technically will be a part two/mini story that is not so mini/continuation of the last story. Well seeing this is already posted there is no real need to wait with me… So continue reading!
EDIT:: I had 30 pages and therefore I will be posting the other half of the story after this one due to the character limit. Please look down and continue reading ^^ OH and forgive any obvious and goofy grammar or spelling. I have not checked it, to many words for my lazy ass. I might edit it someday but knowing my track record I will never edit it... Anyways.

The day had turned to night again. The weather had turned warmer and the moon was out. One by one everyone began waking up and retreating back to the great hall. The only ones missing were Innocence, Mary, Vivi, and Rob. Innocence had sent Damon down to meet everyone while she went to check up on her uncle and aunts. After fifteen minutes, Innocence and Mary along with a limping Vivi made it down the stairs. After a good rest Robert looked much better. He could breath, he was not coughing as much, but he still was fairly dizzy with a slight fever. Mary sitting down allowed Robert to rest his head. Everyone besides Innocence and Robert seemed tense at Vivi but she looked worse for wear and was not speaking to anyone let alone looking at them.
Suddenly a knock was heard. Paeilze one of the elderly maids opened the door. Jezebelle had returned to check up on everyone and she brought Brishen, Marko and her mother along this time around. She noticed the silence and sat on the floor. Her crew followed her lead and also sat on the floor. Jezebelle then looked at Innocence, “Why so quiet?” Innocence looked at her friend before shrugging. “Not sure…” Robert then smirked, “Well how about we have a little singing?” Mary snorted silently getting Rob to look at her confused with mock offense. “What?” Mary just grinned, “You are sick, and I hardly think these girls want to sing with men.”
Robert looked up at her with mock hurt, “And what is so wrong with us men?” Mary just kept smirking, “It is a woman’s secret… Right girls?” After a moment, Innocence, Sarah, Enigma, Jezebelle, Whisper, and Jalilah all shrugged before agreeing much to Damon, Rhys, Walter, Marko, and Rob’s surprise. Rob then looked at Vivi, she looked at Rob for a moment before nodding as well. Rob just let his job hang open before he pumped a fist into the air in mock declaration. “Well then, we men will show you that we are more then work singing with but are better at singing!” Mary just snorted at the idea before shrugging.
“Fine, we need judges… And people willing to fight in this so called battle.” Rob paused for a moment, “I got five…” Mary shrugged, “I got more then that but I suppose… Innocence, Enigma, Whisper, Myself, and Jezebelle… Who do you want?” Rob paused again before glaring at Mary who was grinning knowing he had no choice in the matter of who to chose. He however just listed them off to keep from looking foolish. “Well if you must know, I have myself, Walter, Damon, Marko, and Rhys…” Marko seemed unfazed by being called out but Walter and Damon seemed slightly flustered about the idea. Rhys just looked on bored.
Mary nodded, “And the judges?” Rob thought for a moment, “Well let me see… Vivi, Sarah, Jalilah, and the four children.” Mary paused before nodding. Alright, then it is on. The judges should stay here, I will take my girls into the kitchen and you go somewhere else. Make a battle plan and then it will be on…
[/b]” Rob just laughed before standing. Walking off with the men, and Mary stood up and took the girls she called with her. It took almost a full hour but each person had one song, and everyone would sing in the last song. Everyone had their song explained, and it was explained that those who were not singing would provide the music. After just passing an hour mark both teams returned to the great hall. Rob and Mary then placed a hand behind their back, then with a quick two out of three, Rob had won the game of rock, paper, scissors. That meant the boys were going first. Mary then pondered something, “ Shall we have people matched up and do it that way or shall it be a free for all?” Rob thought for a moment before smirking, “ Well I say we should have one on ones and depending on what are line ups are, have the judges give votes based on each song before having six votes towards which group sings best together and then add all the points together. Deal?” Mary gave it a moment of thought before grinning, “ Sounds good, alright Rob dear, who is first?” Robert grinned before placing a hand on the small of Damon’s back and pushing him foreword. “ The pretty boy. ” Mary paused, “ The lord or the butler?” Rob snorted before speaking, “ Sorry, forgot we have more then one pretty boy… The lord.” Damon blushed at the nickname and the fact he had to do this… He thought it could not get any worse before Mary grabbed Innocence and placed her less then a foot away from him. “ You put up Lord Pretty Boy and I put up my little princess.” Innocence gaped at Mary but Mary just grinned. Damon looked back at Rob who just grinned as well. Damon went to complain but Rob just placed a hand on his shoulder. “ Do it for your fellow man, bite the bullet, and just do it. You know how she works so it should be a breeze…” Damon almost pouted, he knew how she worked it was true but… He was going to be embarrassing himself in the process it hardly seemed like was going to work well… He however ignored the heat in his face grow as Rob backed off and had the remaining men make some sort of a beat out of household objects. He sighed and looked at Innocence who was just looking at him with a mild look of amusement. He then heard the cue and decided he could bite the bullet, if it got him a reaction from her it would be worth it… “

” To say that was easy to sing was a pure hearted lie, but the look on Innocence’s face had almost made it worth it. She had her mouth opened ever so lightly with a large blush on her face. He almost jumped out of his skin when he felt Rob place a hand on his shoulder and was chuckling. “ Now that is the spirit! Damon muttered, “ Kill me now…” Innocence recovering looked at her aunt who was still just grinning. She figured it was her turn and so she patted her cheeks quickly to try and rid her blush from her face. She then felt that familiar boldness, she had a need to win this challenge… The Tiamorre clan was known for being competitive… She had not really believed it until now… The girls copying the guys used household objects before Innocence got her cue to start singing. “
I still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams.(my dreams)
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive.
'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch, I feel this static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat slow...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.
Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry. (I cry)
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.
'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch, I feel this static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat slow...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.
'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
” Damon had figured his song would have caused her to end up faltering like normal but he just stood there frozen. She was staring right at him with a grin on her lips. Mary and Rob looked at the ‘judges’ all had a quill with paper. After a moment those who could actually write, wrote a name. With the cue to show, Jalilah, Vivi, and Sarah all had Innocence written. Satisfaction and Mercy both had Damon’s name written. Mary poked Innocence and Innocence smiled, “ I think I won…” The groan from Rob and the muttering of it being close caused Mary to laugh. Rob then grabbed Walter who had not expected to go so soon. He gave Rob a look that looked almost feral. Robert however just laughed at the look, knowing the butler had not expected to have to do his part so soon. In front of so many woman no less. Walter went to ask him if he really needed to do this but the look on Damon’s face explained that he really had no choice. Mary looked in Rob’s direction. “ Who next?” Rob laughed, “ This time it is the pretty boy butler.” Mary nodded slowly for a moment before grabbing Enigma. “ Then I will use my second princess.” She then flung her a little to hard towards the center of the room. Making it so she almost lost her balance. Walter had been so nervous he almost did not notice. When he did however he caught her and she glared over her shoulder at her aunt who just was grinning. Rob then cleared this throat. Walter let go of Enigma like she was made of glass and the music began playing. Walter rubbing his face trying to get over the embarrassment. “
Baby let me be,
Your lovin teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck,
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.
I don't wanna be a tiger
Cause tigers play too rough
I don't wanna be a lion
Cause lions aint the kind
You love enough.
Just wanna be, your teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.
Baby let me be, around you every night
Run your fingers through my hair,
And cuddle me real tight
” Walter had been told that he was singing a song by a old favorite artist in the old world who often swung his hips. Now Walter had been against he idea and now he was reeeeally against the idea. He had already done it like Rob had instructed and the look on Enigma’s face made he want to hide behind her uncle. Rob just kept laughing, this time harder. The look on his niece’s face was so amusing. She had her mouth hanging open, her face matched her widened eyes, and she was frozen in place. She then broken from the frozen position and whined. She pointed at Walter and looked at her aunt before she remembered she did not have the sight to see what just happened. She then turned to her sister. Innocence just had an amused look on her face. “ Who knew he could dance…” Enigma just let out the breath she was holding and it sounded like a stressed laugh. She had been told what to sing and dance but… She could not form words let alone sing. Vivi who had been doing this for the hell of it frowned, “ Oh come on, so he knows how to swing his hips, you are a woman, you know how to swing more then hips…” Enigma paused for a moment before giving her aunt a confused look. What she said was true… She went to ask her aunt what the hell she was being nice for but she suddenly felt her other aunt tear the sleeves off her dress and bend forward and rip a good two feet of her dress off so it stopped right before the bandages began. She snapped her head at her other aunt, “ What the hell?!” Mary just grinned, “ What? It is hard to shake your pretty little ass in a dress like that.” Enigma glared at her aunt, funny she missed Walter dancing but she could tell she was not wearing something that allowed her to dance… She had selective… Well whatever she used to sense things, it was very selective. Looking down at her dress she sighed, it was an expensive silk dress… She then looked up and saw Walter was frozen and she almost laughed. The look on his face was amusing. She looked over to Innocence who was leaning on Whisper cause she was laughing to hard to stand herself. Enigma shrugging looked at Vivi to see if her words had been true, she almost fell over when she was giving a thumbs up with a blank look. She then started to dance and sing. “
I love to love you baby
I love to love you baby.
I'm feelin sexy

And I came to party
” By the time she finished she had gotten over the way Walter had been dancing and the fact her very expensive dress had been ripped apart. The whole thing was almost made worth it when she noticed Walter had remained frozen but had actually begun to get a slight nose bleed. She just purposely bent forward and picked up one of her fallen sleeves before pressing it to his nose with a devilish grin on her face. Vivi watched with the same blank look on her face, “ And those hips don’t lie…” She then along with everyone else voted. Everyone besides Mercy voted for Enigma who just grinned as Robert had to help the poor man sit down. Well maybe breaking out of the bubble that Innocence and Damon had done had been a bit cruel. He was her exact height so when she was rubbing up against him it probably made him suffer a tad bit more. She just laughed as Robert sighed. He was down two, he needed to win the next three… If he lost anymore the only hope was to win the group and that might not be possible with Walter ready to pass out. He mockingly glared at Enigma who just licked her finger and made a sizzling noise when she touched her hip. Rob sighed, well he had thought the men did well but apparently the judges were not as pleased… It was time to start getting serious. He then alerted Marko who had no blush, had no bashfulness, and looked almost happy to be able to dance for pleasure and not work. Jezebelle taking charge, went before Mary even said anything. Marko and Jezebelle was used to battling like this, normally it was duo dances that caused the two parties to dance together while dancing against each other. IT was hard to describe unless you actually saw it, however this would make it easier as they did not need to dance together and were free to try and beat the other one out. Jezebelle watched as Marko sung his song with a big fat grin on his lips… “
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
Just like Shakira belly dancing in the grammy awards
Like Beyonce clapping her booty in the MTV show
She's so amazing
She drives me crazy
Baila Baila mamita que te quiero ver
Rompiendo la pista abusadora
Eres bien tentadora
De todas la mas seductora
Baila Baila mamita que te quiero ver
Rompiendo la pista abusadora
Eres bien tentadora
De todas la mas seductora
(chorus)
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
For me it's so tempting that I can't deny
For us to be together side by side
La noche esta buena para expirimentar
Just me and you together sin parar
Excuse me Zion don't mean to interrupt you but she's fire
The way her body jiggling all in her attire
Dropping it down low while she bring it up higher
while we singing....
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
Shorty so sexy
I want to take you to my crib
Ella se ve de lo mas bien, quiero sacarte de aqui
Por si no lo sabias esta noche
Your gonna end up with me
Then I can just ride you
You know slip n slide you
Flip you over
Good lovin is what i can provide you
If you don't want it
Then walk away cuz it's your right to
But I wanna show you to the world
Never hide you
Cuz you're the most beautifullest thing I’ve ever seen
And you got the potential to blow me up like gasoline
Well I’m trying to be patient
Trying to be a gentleman
Can you see what you're doing to me hey?
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she's waiting for me
I love the way she moves
I see the way she's coming
I wanna rock her body
I know she' waiting for me…
” When he finished Jezebelle looked on with mild amusement but otherwise showed no real emotion over the song. She was not as bashful as Enigma when it came to dancing and she was hardly as naïve and easily effect like Innocence was. Marko looked at her with the same grin that he had from the beginning of the song. He knew she was going to be pulling out the big guns, but he refused to show any reaction… He knew the men were far behind and he would not lose just because Jezebelle was his woman, no he would treat her like any old woman and by the gods he would win this… Jezebelle could tell he was not going to break easy but that just made it more challenging. She waited for the remaining girls to start playing some music before she broke out her moves mother dearest had been teaching her in private… “
Everybody look at me, me
I walk in the door you start screaming
Come on everybody what you here for?
Move your body around like a nympho
Everybody get your necks to crack around
All you crazy people come on jump around
I want to see you all on your knees, knees
You either want to be with me, or be me!
Maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard
Make you want all, of her love
She's a maneater
make you buy cars
make you cut cards
make you fall, real hard in love
She's a Maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard
Make you want all, of her love
She's a maneater
make you buy cars
make you cut cards
Wish you never ever met her at all!
And when she walks she walks with passion
when she talks, she talks like she can handle it
when she asks for something boy she means it
even if you never ever seen it
everybody get your necks to crack around
all you crazy people come on jump around
you doing anything to keep her by your side
because, she said she love you, love you long time!
Never ever met her at all!
you wish you never ever met her at all!
you wish you never ever met her at all!
you wish you never ever met her at all!
you wish you never ever met her at all!
” Jalilah seemed happy about the sudden change. Marko who had decided he would not be effected was deeply effected. He could only gape and look back at Rob with an apologetic look on his face. Rob just sighed… This was a losing battle. He should have known the girls would have blushed and maybe giggled but when it was their turn they would just take it as a challenge… Ugh this was going horribly. He looked at Rhys who just looked back blankly. He knew it was his turn so without any fight he just walked up. Whisper who as well knew she was the last one stood near him. Rhys looked at her blankly and she returned the blank look. He then with the music began to sing. “
Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell
It was love from above that could save me from hell
She had fire in her soul it was easy to see
How the devil himself could be pulled out of me
There were drums in the air as she started to dance
Every soul in the room keeping time with their hands
And we sang
Ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And the voices bang like the angels sing
We?re singing, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And we danced on into the night
Ay, oh, ay, ay, oh, ay, oh
And we danced on into the night
Like a piece to the puzzle that falls into place
You could tell how we felt from the look on our faces
We were spinning in circles with the moon in our eyes
The room left them moving between you and I
We forgot where we were and we lost track of time
And we sang to the wind as we danced through the night
And we sang
Ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And the voices bang like the angels sing
We?re singing ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And we danced on into the night
Ay, oh, ay, ay, oh, ay, oh
And we danced on into the night
Ay, oh, ay, ay, oh, ay, oh
And we danced on into the night
Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell
It was love from above that could save me from hell
She had fire in her soul it was easy to see
How the devil himself could be pulled out of me
There were drums in the air as she started to dance
Every soul in the room keeping time with their hands
And we sang
Ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And the voices bang like the angels sing
We?re singing ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And we danced on into the night
Ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh
And the voices bang like the angels sing
We?re singing ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And we danced on into the night
Ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
Ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
Singing ay, oh, ay, oh, ay, oh, ay
And we danced on into the night
” Being probably the only couple paired up that had no underlying relationship made this more of a challenge. There was no real way to make the opposing party flustered nor make yourself stand out more. Not that either of them really cared, they were doing this because they both knew they had no real choice in the matter. Whisper waited for him to finish before curtsying and starting her own song to get it done in over with. “
Do, do you got a first aid kit handy?
Do, do you know how to patch up a wound? Tell me
Are, are, are you, are you patient, understanding?
?Cause I might need some time to clear the hole in my heart and I
I tried every remedy and nothing seems to work for me
Baby, baby this situation?s driving me crazy
And I really wanna be your lady
But the one before you left me so
Damaged, damaged, damaged, damaged

And you can blame the one before
So how you gonna fix it, fix it, fix it?

Do, do you know how to patch up a wound? Tell me
Are, are, are you, are you patient, understanding?
?Cause I might need some time to clear the hold on my heart and I
You try to gain my trust, talking is not enough
Actions speak louder than words, you gotta show us something
My heart is missing some pieces
I need this puzzle put together again
Damaged, damaged, damaged, damaged
I thought that I should let you know
That my heart is damaged, damaged, so damaged, so damaged
And you can blame the one before
So how you gonna fix it, fix it, fix it?

And you can blame the one before
Damaged, damaged, damaged, damaged

And you can blame the one before
So how you gonna fix it, fix it, fix it?
(It?s that type of pain)

How you gonna fix it, fix it, fix it?
How you gonna fix it, fix it, fix it?
(It?s that type of pain)
(That makes you pray, makes you cry)
My heart is damaged, damaged, damaged
(But it?s gon' be alright one day)
My heart is damaged, damaged, damaged
My heart is damaged, damaged, damaged
(This too shall pass)
My heart is damaged, damaged, damaged
My heart is damaged
Sometimes you gotta go though the pain
To experience the joy
This too shall pass
Danity Kane
This too shall pass
” Rhys listened and watched with a bored expression. He could tell by the emotions given off by the woman she too was just doing this for the hell of it. It had been amusing to watch the other three couples but now it was there turn and they had to ‘take one for the team’ as well. Rhys was not stupid, no matter who sung well, the whole judge jury was made up of woman and one small boy who would pick the woman because of that fact. Not to mention the two little babies would ‘vote’ for their mothers. It was obvious they were going to lose. Although he had to admit watching both his brother and the butler struggling had been amusing… Whisper when finished bowed her thanks before backing away to stand next to Innocence. Rob looked and saw that Whisper had won by one vote. It was clear that it was either up to him or them as a group. He looked at Walter who was standing with his nose clear of blood. He seemed already, looking at Damon he saw he was not as flustered. Marko and Rhys were good to go as well… If he could not get at least one point… Hopefully they could work together. Together they could fight the woman right? … RIGHT?! It was his turn… This was the last change as a single to get at least one point. Currently they were losing and losing badly. He knew the judging was fixed but he liked a challenge, even if it was impossible. Standing he faced his motherly sister and paused. He then remembered his lyrics. He knew dancing would be pointless and it would be fairly difficult to dance to this song anyways. He cleared this throat and waited for the music before he started to sing… “
It's early morning
The sun comes out
Last night was shaking
And pretty loud
My cat is purring
And scratches my skin
So what is wrong
With another sin
The bitch is hungry
She needs to tell
So give her inches
And feed her well
More days to come
New places to go
I've got to leave
It's time for a show
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
My body is burning
It starts to shout
Desire is coming
It breaks out loud
Lust is in cages
Till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it
With someone I choose
The night is calling
I have to go
The wolf is hungry
He runs to show
He's licking his lips
He's ready to win
On the hunt tonight
For love at first sting
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
” Mary waited for him to finish, she knew that song and she was by no means surprised he picked it. She remembered he used to love singing that song when he thought he was all alone… She knew that fact but would keep it silent, the moment to use taunts was over. For her at least she figured it would be mean to kick while the males were down anyways. If she won their only hope would be to band together… Which would fail no doubt. Alone the woman could dominant, together they would trash the males… And trash them they would… With a calming breath she began to sing her own song. “
Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy
(Hey, what up girl?)
Grab my glasses, I'm out the door, I'm gonna hit this city
(Lets go)
Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack
'Cause when I leave for the night, I ain't coming back
I'm talking pedicure on our toes, toes
Trying on all our clothes, clothes
Boys blowing up our phones, phones
Drop-topping, playing our favorite CDs
Pulling up to the parties
Trying to get a little bit tipsy
Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock, on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Ain't got a care in world, but got plenty of beer
Ain't got no money in my pocket, but I'm already here
And now, the dudes are lining up cause they hear we got swagger
But we kick em to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger
I'm talking about everybody getting crunk, crunk
Boys tryin' to touch my junk, junk
Gonna smack him if he getting too drunk, drunk
Now, now, we go until they kick us out, out
Or the police shut us down, down
Police shut us down, down
Po-po shut us
Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
DJ, you build me up
You break me down
My heart, it pounds
Yeah, you got me
With my hands up
You got me now
You got that sound
Yeah, you got me
DJ, you build me up
You break me down
My heart, it pounds
Yeah, you got me
With my hands up
Put your hands up
Put your hands up
Now, the party don't start 'til I walk in
Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no…
” After she finished Rob turned to see the ruling. After about half a minute it was a tie. Rob pouted, it was something but it was not enough… He needed to win that one. Well the last one was worth six so even if all of the girls technically won, if they all won this last round it would be alright in the end… He then smirked, “ Mary dear, why not make this a bit more interesting.” Mary looked at Rob, “ I am listening…” Rob grinned, “ Alright, the winners get to have the losers wait on them hand and foot. No complaints, and it lasts for the whole week… Or until something happens to stop it like needing to go home or being sick of being helped all the time. How does that sound?” Mary waited a moment before allowing a devilish grin to cross her lips. “ Why… That sounds delicious. Look darling, looks like you will be able to get the butler without needing to pay him.” Enigma glared at her aunt and then at Innocence who tried to hide a laugh but just ended up falling to her knees. Enigma rolled her eyes, “ What are you laughing about, that means you get to turn Damon into your slave… And knowing you it will not be a butler… That is until the bedroom needs to be cleaned up.” Innocence froze and glared at her sister and the two woman continued to glare until Mary bopped them both and told them to focus. Damon and Walter just blushed as the small fight, but they kept silent waiting for the next part of this horrible nightmare to start. With another game of rock paper scissors, the guys were able to start first again. With everyone singing the girls had to play the music. Which they did with grins on their faces for the most part. Wanting to see how well these idiots could band together and try to win at the last second. “

” By the ending of the song, the two sisters had lost their smiles and were looking at each other in surprise. Mary held her grin, and Whisper had a blank look on her face. Jezebelle was holding a similar look but it had a knowing grin on her face. They boys had surprised her but… Knowing Mary she would be able to surprise them right back and win this thing. The girls getting over their emotions looked at Mary who allowed the household instruments to be passed to the guys. When the music started she knew what to do, if they went they ‘sexy’ route the only way to take them by surprise and win this thing was to go the more… Sensual and innocent route. The girls getting their cue started to sing, enjoying the looks they got for the lack of sexy in their song they had been expecting. “
I don't like anyone but you...
Nikki says, we're all downtown
What's my problem I don't wanna socialize
Why don't they leave me alone...
Bad boys, jealous girls
Been there, done that, I just wanna fantasize
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...)
Starring at the ceiling thinking 'bout you
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...)
It's a freaky feeling, what can I do...
I don't like anyone, the way I like you
I don't go anywhere, if you're not there too
It's not as if I'm hard to please
You're the only one good enough for me
Those others just won't do
I don't like anyone but you
Anyone but you...
Oh yeah, they think I'm a little obsessed
Up here sending mental telepathy
I'm concentrating on you...
I want to give you everything
But if I do, will you think the less of me
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...)
Everybody else, just wasting my time
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...)
Baby can't you tell, we're two of a kind
I don't like anyone, the way I like you
I don't go anywhere, if you're not there too
It's not as if I'm hard to please
You're the only one good enough for me
Those others just won't do
I don't like anyone (anyone but you...)
(Now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now)
(Thinking 'bout you) starring at the ceiling thinking 'bout you
(What can I do) it's a freaky feeling, what can I do...
I don't like anyone (I don't like anyone)
I don't go anywhere (yea, yea, yea, yea, yeah)
I don't like anyone (good enough for me baby)
I don't go anywhere (no, no, no, no)
It's not as if I'm hard to please
You're the only one good enough for me
Those others just won't do
I don't like anyone but you (but you...)
I don't like anyone, the way I like you
I don't go anywhere, if you're not there too
It's not as if I'm hard to please
You're the only one good enough for me
Those others just won't do
I don't like anyone but you...
” By the middle of the song it was obvious to Vivi who had won… She gave a small look to see if the others agreed, and from the small grins on the children and Sarah it seemed it was indeed an agreement. She however did not say anything and waited for two of the idiots to sit down to keep from falling, and watched as Robert seemed to deflate. He waited to the end of the song before sending her a desperate look. She however kept a stone emotionless look on her face. Granted she could use this victory to her benefit… As a woman she knew she had to choose the right side… And from the reactions and from the obvious agreement about the reactions it was the woman’s win… Oh Robert would be so upset… Oh well it was his fault for trying to prove something that was impossible. No man could ever out win a woman if she put her mind to it… After a moment everyone who was able to write wrote who they believe won the whole thing and to a win of four to two it was obvious, the woman had beat the men. Damon and Walter who had sat down next to each other gave a look of dread knowing what this meant. They both waited a moment before glaring at Walter who had gotten them in trouble in the first place. Rhys also glared, as far as he cared, the woman he was suppose to now cater to was not someone he had any real interest in catering to and from the look on her face did not want to get a slave. Robert however just sighed and looked at Innocence who had a smirk on her lips. Mary knowing from the lack of bragging that the woman had won held out her hand. Robert glared at the hand before taking it. He then placed her on his back, giving her piggy back ride. “ Well… It has been real…” All the men just glared at Robert who was to depressed to glare or defend himself. Mary taking the chance to rub it in, kicked her heels like a spoiled child. “ Hurry up Robby! I want to get home so I can make you do the dishes, clean the house, and go shopping with me!” Robert just sulked before ‘galloping’ outside so he could beat the dawn so his torture could begin… Vivi seeing her housemates leaving decided she too should leave. Standing up she stretched her sore body and headed towards the door. She was about to reach for the knob but she felt someone carefully place their arms around her waist. She froze stiffly before carefully craning her neck to see who was leeched to her. She looked surprised to see blond hair and the printed dress her youngest niece had been wearing. Returning to her previous stance she just sighed and looked blankly at the door. She could feel a dozen eyes glaring at her. “ What?” Innocence had not exactly thought why she had done it but she felt like she had connected on some level… And kind of leapt without thinking… She felt her aunt freeze but kept her embrace. That was until she was asked what, then she retracted her arms and rubbed the back of her head with a small blush on her cheeks. She then muttered something under her breath before darting over to her sister who took her sister’s hand. Vivi watched for a moment before bowing ever so slightly and turning. She had no wish to speak… Opening the door she left to chase after her annoying sister in law, and her stupid egotistical husband. After a moment the tenseness dropped and Whisper gave Rhys one look. “ Well this has been real… I need to go finish reading that book. Go please someone else that needs some coddling…” It came out a bit harsher then she wanted but she really had no need for him to be her slave, hell unlike half the couples she had no attachment to him therefore it would have been awkward. He had a woman and therefore even thought she did not sing, she could replace her. It seemed more natural that way anyways… If she wanted a slave she could just walk down the market place and pick up the first boy toy that tried to hit on her… Not that she would but… The option was always open and therefore she did not need this. With her part said she left for her room. Leaving the remaining couples and the small children to remain. Enigma and Innocence watched as Whisper left, they then looked at each other with similar grins. Both of which caused Damon and Walter to stand up slowly and start heading towards the nearest exit. Rhys watched with slight amusement as he gave the wall a blank look. He then muttered, “ 3...2...1...” At one the two girls tore from their standing positions after the two men who had started to run out of the opened door and down the hallway hoping to escape being a slave due to a bad bet on their part. Rhys then sighed, hearing the crashing and threats from Walter about grounding… As if that would work on those two demonic woman… Sighing he decided to head back home, he had no need to stay here and from the look of it Sarah was tired. Going over to Sarah he helped her stand and headed towards the door, giving a small goodbye to the remaining houseguest. Jezebelle and Marko who often lived this scenario out just watched the whole thing unfold with amused grins on their faces. Jezebelle then handed Brishen to Marko before grabbing Damian. From her stories, she doubted Innocence would be coming back for Damian… She then gave one look to Mercy and Satisfaction who looked mellow despite the screams echoing from the hallways. She knew if Enigma was anything like her sister, these children would not be watched either. With a hand movement she had the children follow her to the rooms she remembered them being in. She then took the room she had been given a few times and split it with the babies, and Marko. Jalilah however decided it would be best if she left. The gypsy would be in chaos if she did not return. With everyone else gone it was only the two sisters. Both who were chasing down their slaves who were not going down without a fight. Now technically an every man for himself would apply but due to the tag team they were dealing with they decided it would be best to team up and escape that way. Taking a quick breath behind a corner Damon looked at Walter. “ I swear to god… If we get out of this I am so buying you a drink…” Walter who looking around the corner gave a small smile. “ I might take you up on that… Also I do believe if we make a quick break for outside we can make it to Lee…” Damon gave him a serious look,. “ How fast can you run?” Walter gave him a grin, “ Faster then you think…” Just as Damon went to say something else Enigma poked her head from around the corner. “ BOO!” Walter felt his spine crawl and Damon went to yank him away but ended up bumping into Innocence who was standing behind him. Jumping at the bump he craned his head and saw the small woman looking up at him with a devious grin. Both men froze for a moment before sighing. They looked at each other with half lidded eyes and then shook hands. “ Well it has been nice knowing you…” Damon sighed, “ Yes… I must say it has been nice knowing you as we-” Before he could finish Innocence had gripped his collar and yanked it so she could drag him backwards down the hallway. Walter watched before he felt Enigma do almost the same thing, only it was his pants not his collar. Innocence then through a giggle spoke to her sister, “ Well nice working with you sister, we shall have to do this again reeeeeal soon.” Enigma just grinned, “ Of course we will sister… We have alllll week…” The two woman then with their slave in hand both headed towards their room laughing while going to make a list of things for their new little workers to complete… It was going to be a long week…. ~~~ A/N:: I finally finished it lol. Well before I had no story ideas but I think I will do a story based on the week these two morons need to face, and then a story about Red Hare based on what he has to deal with. I got a few ideas dancing around in my head. I am just happy I got this one finished at… 30 pages… Wow I think this is my longest darkling story. Granted it has a lot of lyrics but it has at least 20 pages of non-lyrics I think. Do not quote me on that, I did not check. I am only guessing. Anyways time to get some medicine and try to sleep. I am typing this up at 6:54 in the morning… My medicine never kicked in… Oh well. No rest of the weary. [/blockquote][/blockquote][/size] |
