Chapter 51
Alpha Dillion and his Beta Arthur made their way to the fighting ring towards my brother. They stood side by side in a ready fighting stance. He stood in the middle waiting. Jacob didn’t even look phased from the first fight. They were going to go at him head on and all at once and not from opposite sides. I think they wanted to see what he would do with two at the same time. Jacob is fast on his feet and creative in his fighting. They stayed in human form and ran towards my brother. Dillion went high with his claws extended towards Jacob. Arthur went low. Arthur dove down towards his legs, he tried swiping with his claws extended to claw at his thigh. But my brother jumped over him up high in the air and summersaulted down and slid passing under Dillions launch. Dillion flew over Jacob not expecting his movements to be so f
Chapter 52 Barnett looked just like Id imagine Albert Einstein would look like in real life, maybe a little bit younger in mid-forties. But I was bad at guessing ages, especially now that I know about werewolves. Since we age slower. Father doesn’t look more then forty. I’m not even sure how old mom and dad are. That’s something I’m going to need to find out. I don’t even know when their birthdays are. Even after almost three years of living here. I never thought to ask about such details. We never celebrated it before, just our birthdays ever mattered. Back to this Barnett guy. He was sitting with mom, in dad’s office. We seemed to have a lot of meetings in here. He had a stack of old leather-bound books siting on the table in front of him. Mom and Barnett looked like they were just casually talking like they were old friends. &nb
Penny and Jacob were born and left abandoned in a small town almost sixteen years asgo. They were found in a basket covered in a mans flannel shirt, near a Massey Pizza restaurant. They didn't know much about thier past; only a note saying' Please keep my twins together I am unable to care for them, Thier names are Penny and Jabob'The local news named them the Massey Twins. The names stuck. When no one came forward to claim the twins they ended up moving from one foster home to another. They never stayed long in each home. They were not bad kids, they kept mostly quiet and mostly to themselves. Penny was born unable to speak, but this was not discovered untill she was nearly ten years olf. Most of the foster parents assumed Jacob spoke up for Penny and let it be. At the age of three the twins had already been in three differnt homes. on the fouth home they were placed with an abusive older woman,
I can hear the rain hitting my window and it helped me relax. I have had a few nightmares this week. I keep waking jup crying. I keep thinking about what that old woman, Mrs. D was her name. Well it was what e were told to call her. The last dream I had was of her hitting me with the attitude adjuster. Yup, she had this four -foot-long wooden spoon and she would use it to hit me and Jacob. When she wasn't using the attitude adjuster it was a long switch from a tree in the back yard she made Jacob get himself. I could just be sitting their being quiet and playing with toys and she would accuse me of giving her a dirty look. As if a small child could do this. She would say I was evil because I never talked. She said God must have been angry with me and took my voice. She was very religious. I dont even know what religion could be this cruel. In that dream while she was spanking me with the attitude adjuster Jacob was trying to get her to stop. He told her whatever I did to mak
I could feel the sun warming my face throught my open curtains, normally Id have the closed. I like to keep my room dark it helps me to sleep, keeps the shadows away. But because of the storm last night I kept them open, I like seeing lighting flash. I love thunderstorms, its so exciting to see nature so angry. Today is saturday and I would normally be still sleeping, but because I had my curtians still open it was bright out ways to early. It was our last weekend before we started eleventh grade at our new school. Eight AM is way to early on the weekend though. But I cant wiat to go back to school. I love school. The sun was bright, there were no clouds in the sky. Just endless bright blue skies. The storm must have worked itself out. I reached behind me to see if my brother was still in here, nope he must have left in the night. "Jacob, are you awake?" I called him from my mind, still lying in bed. I waited a few minutes then I heard him reply. "no, P
Mrs. Carter has a driver, he is a tall dark and a scary looking man, and he answers with grunts. He kinds of reminds me of Lurch from the movie Adams Family. He is a nice guy though and apparently has been working with the Carters for a long time. His name is David; he has a small house in the forest and stays there until one of the Carter's calls for him. We sat in the back of the black limo; Jacob was talking to Mrs. Carter. “Sweetheart what do you need the most” Mrs. Carter suddenly asked me. I looked up like I was thinking about it then told my brother what I'm interested in and the things I needed the most. 'Umm, tell Mrs. Carter, I really need more jeans, matching under clothes and some new sweater because it will be getting cooler soon' I told this all to my brother while looking at her.
We sat in silence all the way home. Well to Mrs. Carter it seemed like it was silent. But me and Jacob were having a full-on conversation. “Jacob what do you think she meant by making sure we were the right twins? And that we will fit in with the family? Don't we need to meet them to know if we fit in? If we don't fit in is, she going to get rid of us”? I was bombarding his mind with a massive number of questions. “Hey, hey calm down I'm sure it will be fine, I think I just caught her off guard with that question. And I don’t think she will get rid of us. I can tell she and Mr. Carter like us. Besides they got us into that fancy new school. If they were going to get rid of us, do you think they would have bothered taking their time placing us in that school?' Jacob was trying to reassure myself that it will be alright. &n
After one of the best days, I have ever had they are going to spring bad news on us, I just knew something was going to happen. “Kids I have something important to tell you and I don’t want you to be upset, and please hear me out before you get mad at us” Mrs. Carter was looking worried, like we might attack her or something when she give us this bad news. I gave a look of unknowing to Jacob and he returns the look back to me. We have no idea what the Carters are going to lay on us? “You cannot have a birthday party” Mr. Carter blurted out with a hint of uneasiness. “What Richard means to say, we won’t be celebrating your birthday
Chapter 7 We were still sitting at the small table eating our Chinese, but I could tell all of us were not interested in eating anymore. Mrs. Carter had said she had more to tell us, but it has been an awkward 10 minutes since she had spoken. I had so many thoughts running through my mind. Are we seriously werewolves, and why now is this all coming out? We have been living here for nearly three and just now we find out she’s our mother and he is our father. I have always wanted to meet my parents, I held no resentment over them abandoning us, but Jacob is taking this very hard. He has always held a deep bitterness towards the ones who abandoned us. It’s too quiet, I needed to hear the rest of the story even if Jacob was not ready. I
