Chapter 1 *Debbie* "I swear to the Gods, if you don't get your ass up I'm going to have Cassie set your hair on fire! AGAIN!!" Lori screamed from the doorway. "Okay okay, I'm up." I said half asleep into my pillow. As Lori turned away with a snort of anger i made a rude gesture with my hand to my oldest sister. "I saw that! Its your fault you can't wake up on time Debbie!" Lori yelled. "Stop playing Black Ops II all night on that damn Xbox, and maybe for ONCE in your life you'll be on time!" Of course she saw that. She was the only one of my three older sisters who had been given the strong powerful gift of sight. I just laughed and crawled out of bed, literally, i crawled out of bed and into the restroom to shower and brush my teeth, i had no strength in the morning unlike my other sisters. For some reason they all thrived during the day while i just wanted to curl up and go back to bed. But night time...now that was where i felt at my most powerful! My sisters and i are special you see...we have these abilities. My oldest sister Lori who is a total hard ass but she is the most loving and caring person out of all of us and would do anything to keep us safe. At 5'1 and a half with black wavy hair that reaches past her shoulders, eyes the color of warm chocolate but always so cool and focused, lips the color of a beautiful pink rose and tattoos that completely cover her arms hide her light skin and piercings on her face she can be quite intimidating yet beautiful. Men drool all over her, chasing her any chance they get, sadly for them my sister is too focused on protecting us that they don't have a chance. As i told you before she has the gift of sight, which means she can see anything and everything. What i mean by that is that she can see the past, present, and future. Which, honestly, i find annoying and amazing. She can also project thoughts and images into peoples minds and make them believe whatever she makes them see, hear, smell, taste, and touch. Its scary... Then there's Gabby, at 5'1 with dark brown straight hair, eyes almost black you could get lost in them, skin the color of the lightest shade of brown you have ever seen. She's what you would call a seductress, every man falls for her and loves to play games with them. She can move anything she wants no matter the weight and size with her mind. I remember once i saw her lift a whale that had gotten beached, and a car that had crashed into a kid riding her bike and had her pinned under it. Luckily the damn drunk driver hadn't killed the poor little girl! Gabby loves kids so the fact that he hadn't killed the girl was the only thing stopping her from killing him. Still my other sister Cassie still had to hold her back. Cassie...ah Cassie, she's so quiet and soft spoken that you'd never know she could set you on fire if you crossed her! Its always the quiet ones huh? Haha! She's the tallest out of all four of us at 5'2. She has a quiet beauty about her with her creamy skin, and dark brown eyes that turn down at the corners which gives her a sad scared look that guys find so cute and adorable that they want to just hold her and keep her safe. Her small springy brown curls are kept at bay by being cut short so they don't tangle every where. And her breasts...let's just say she takes the cake in the boob department! She once with a flick of her wrist set a whole building up in flames in less than a second and it was completely ash in a minute. And of course ME! At barely 5ft I'm the shortest of us. My big copper eyes are played up by the strange blood red highlights in my drab, mousey brown, big bouncy curls that just reach my shoulder. My skin so pale, it was almost translucent, you can see my veins through it. Completely the opposite of my sisters...you would never really know i was related to them to be honest. I'm so different looking with my skin, eyes, and hair at complete odds with them. I'm no beauty at all compared to, not that I'm ugly...I'm just not on their level. Oh yeah! My ablities! I can do a little more than my sisters can. I can conjure fire like Cassie, move things like Gabby, and have a little bit of the gift of sight like Lori, but my abilities are by no means as strong as theirs. Which frustrates me to no end! The only things i can brag about is being able to run fast and teleport, which seems a bit mundane compared to their abilities...though my sister are a bit jealous that i can teleport at will and that takes the sting away a bit. Chapter 2 As i headed down the hallway to the kitchen i remembered why i was up so damn early and paused...it was our parents anniversary...exactly 9 years ago today our parents died in a horrible accident. Their car stalled on the train tracks on their way to pick up my sisters Gabby, Cassie, and me from our schools. Lori had been the one to pick us up instead...she took us to the hospital where we went to identify what was left of our parents. That's when our abilities started to manifest. Since then Lori has been taking care of us, at 19 she became a mother and a father to us. She never cried or complained, she just took charge and its been that way ever since. I sighed as i then realized that my birthday was tomorrow, the big 21! Yet i could never muster any enthusiasm when ever my day came around each year...the reminder of my parents death just the day before it was too much to bear. I entered the kitchen with a fake smile plastered on my face. Lori looked up at me from the newspaper she was reading at the table. "Breakfast is in the microwave keeping warm." she said and looked back down at the paper to continue reading. "Thanks." i replied. "Cassie left with Gabby to buy some flowers." Lori said without looking up this time. She didn't need to look up though, i could feel the pain in her chest as much as i felt my own. I grabbed the plate from the microwave and ate the bacon and pancakes half-heartedly not tasting a single thing though i knew it was most likely delicious seeing as Cassie made it. After i finished my other sisters walked through the door with four beautiful boquets of flowers. Pink roses for Lori, white lillies for Cassie, yellow daisies for Gabby, and purple orchids for me...i sighed to myself once more, mom and dad used to laugh at how different our tastes in flowers were. We piled into Lori's silver BMW and headed to go see our parents...not knowing we were being watched... Chapter 3 *Allistar* I watched them from the shadows as they walked out of the house to the car. I looked at each of them slowly figuring out what powers they possessed. They had great power! They hid it well but my powers were greater and i easily saw behind their shields. As i made my way down to the last of the four my heart studdered for a moment which shocked me since my heart hadn't beat in almost 5000 years. She's...she's breath taking! My eyes glued to her. Her hair was streaked with a red so deep it looked like blood, if my sight had been that of a human i would have simply thought her hair had been colored but i could see it was natural. Her skin looked almost as pale as my own and i marveled at the beauty of it. I had yet to see her eyes and a need to see them started to frustrate me. Just then she turned her head and it shocked me to my core! Those eyes! The color of copper that slowly bled into a color much like the blood color of her hair. I had only seen those eyes once before... I finally found my mate and she turns out to be the offspring of my most hated enemy!? But how did she come to be with this family? Surely they could see she looked nothing like them? Where was her true father? This does not bode well... Chapter 4 *Debbie* It was late afternoon by the time we made it back home. I was drained from the sun and days event. I needed a shower and nap to recharge. I looked to my sisters and they nodded, knowing what i was going to say. I headed to my room grabbed my favorite skull pajama pants, SLAYER shirt, and some undies and headed to my bathroom. Thirty minutes later i was laying in bed fast asleep when a dream took me. I was dreaming of laying on the grass in the backyard looking up at the stars when i felt as if someone were watching me. I sat up and looked around not finding anything but then as i started turning back i caught a shadow out of the corner of my eye. As i turned towards it i could feel an evil presence in the shadow...hate eminated from within it. I could not make out the form though, but i got a distinct feeling it had wings...and a tail. The shadow started to reach for me and i felt as though i were being pulled. I started to panic and tried to get up and run but i was frozen, i felt like someone or something was holding me in place. I had a feeling that whatever was in the shadow was what had me. Just as i was ready to scream someone stepped in front of me and the shadow quickly vanished with a hiss. My body relaxed after it disappeared as if i had been released. I looked up and saw that it was a man infront of me, his back still to me i couldn't see his face but from what i could see, this man was tall, 6'7 I guessed. His shoulders were massive and wide that tapered down to a narrow waist which led to powerfully muscled legs. As i was about to ask who he was, he turned...all i saw were the most marvelous green eyes i had ever seen in my entire life. The green the color of forests but...as i looked more i saw silver surrounding the pupil! Such wonderous eyes i thought. As if he knew what i was thinking i saw a smile light his eyes as he raked his own gaze over me and a look of what i could only assume was lust filled it. I felt myself shiver, and knew he was smirking though i had yet to look any where else but his eyes. I stood there, lost, looking into his soul. Finally i found my voice, it was only a whisper as I asked, "What is your name?" He just stood there looking at me and for a moment i thought he wasn't going to answer or perhaps he hadn't heard me. I opened my mouth to ask once more but he replied, "Allistar." His voice was so deep and melodic it was beautiful with an accent i couldn't place. Then he leaned forward, i felt my eyes start to flutter closed and felt him kiss me so softly but i felt it all the way to my toes. He moved back, my eyes opened and still all i saw were his eyes. A hand caressed my cheek and i leanded into it. "You must awake now dragul meu." Chapter 5 I awoke with a start, sitting up so quickly my head swam a bit. As my head cleared i recalled the dream clearly and my hand rose to my lips. It had felt so REAL, even now i could still feel his lips against mine...and what was that shadow? And why did i feel so afraid all of sudden? Just then i felt something in my mind...love and a soothing feeling washed over me. I felt safe. I looked to my right where i had my phone laying on the nightstand i pushed a button, it read 12:33am. It was my birthday...hooray for me i thought to myself. I lay back down and closed my eyes but sleep would not come, i was about to give up when i felt that same loving, soothing, safe feeling wash over me again and somehow i drifted off to sleep...
