"So, I got a real bad feeling about that girl." Alice said, laying on the couch. "pfffttt no" Cal said defensively. "I don't know...there was something wrong with her..." Viv murmured. Just then Viv's grandpa came out. "As long as she doesn't have la flor del mal she's fine." he rumbled "la flor del mal?"Cal asked "it's spanish for the flower of evil, they took your father Viv" she stared at him "the number of thorns they have counts how many of your kind they've drained." "what type of flower is it?!?" "A rose."he answered "NO!!!" Cal exclaimed "If she was she wouldn't of...NO!!"he denied "she is." Alice said calmly. "NO! I want some fucking proof!" he growled angrily and ran off "CAL!" Jen yelled after the shape quickly disappeared out the door, smashing it to bits "CAL!!!!" she fell to her knees and whimpered "come back."
Chapter 3:brutal truth and forbidden attraction Cal ran, anger fueling him. Even after spending only one night with her, his heart ached for the electricity. He needed it. Meanwhile Alexandra felt like a sick puppy. "hey Alex, how was that dude last night?" Nicole asked, chuckling as she washed the dishes. "He was...wow...and he was a virgin" she added "Wow, it's been awhile since we had such an awesome party!" Hannah trotted into the room. She was a bit new, only having drained 1 powercell. "I'm starving man! I haven't drained in 12 years. Last year was tough." You see, to obtain eternal youth, they had to drain powercells of their power, and life force. "Remember the Trojans? Man those guys were HOT" Nic said "Hehe yeah but they were losers." Alex rolled her eyes. She was still thinking about him. "I never noticed how nice blue eyes are on a guy..." she dropped the plate she was scrubbing into the sink. Nicole chuckled. "5,000 years and you've never felt this way before huh?" "Nope." Alex replied dreamily "then you should hope he calls you." Hannah giggled "Oh man I sure hope he does..." she said checking her phone
Once he'd cooled down back in central park he called Alex. After a bit of squealing she answered. "Um...Hi" he said awkwardly "Hi" she said. "So um...want to meet me in central park?" he asked. Muffled squeals came and she answered "I mean like totally yeah that's great." she said happily. "Hannah, while Alex is on her date I'll take you on your second Hunting." Nicole said, pulling the happy Hannah along. Alex ran to her room and leaned against the wall. "Oh Cal, soon you'll be mine. Heart, body, and soul." she smiled, and got dressed. "Guys we HAVE to find Cal!" Alice shrieked. Just then the rumble of a motorcycle was heard. Within seconds, two girls were walking up. "Who are you guys?" Alice said apprehensively. "I'm Rose and this is Jodie." the shorter raven haired one explained. "What is your business?" Damien demanded. "Were Cal's sisters." Jodie said solemly. She was blonde with intelligent green eyes. "He never said anything about sisters." Jen said doubtfully "Were his adoptive sisters. His parents died when we were only 12 and he 11. We were runaways and we decided we should take him. And I am a tracker. Jod here is clairvoyant." Jodie nodded "I saw that he was going to be here. I also know he's in love with a Drainer. Or those with the tattoo." She stated matter-of-factly. "Hmm..." "I see something!" Jod said taking a translucent form "I see...I see much danger in your path. And greatness. One of you will not survive this first journey. You," she pointed at Alice "you will be the destroyer. Of what, that is unknown. Remember, it is your choice." her voice was a cracky whisper, not her own. Then she fell to the ground, coughing up a slimy green substance. "Ewww" Jen said as everyone else stared. "oh Cal..." Alex said, her head on his shoulder, his arm around her. He kissed the top of your head. "You're so beautiful." he murmured. They'd spent the day talking and having a snowball fight. Now they watched the sun slink down on a park bench overlooking the sparkling pond. "Do you believe in love at first sight?" she asked him "after meeting you, yes." he said placidly "she giggled and sighed. "So, tell me, how'd you get that tattoo?" "Oh,um...I gotta go." she mumbled and quickly walked away from him. "Wait what?!?" he called, desperate to prove them wrong. "I'll call you later!" she called and then she was gone. "Oh god, it's not true!" he screamed and rushed back to Viv's Grandpa's townhouse. He kicked at the clumps of mushy snow. "No...NO!" he said to himself for the hundredth time.this is not happening I love her so much...I can't accept this...she isn't...she can't... he thought as he walked up to the door and rang it. Rose answered "ROSE!!!" he yelled and ran past her. "JOD?!?" "WHATTHEHELL I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE DAMNIT!!! CRAZY BITCHES!!" he screeched "wait what?" "Cal...?" "WE'RE HERE FOR YOUR OWN GOOD!!" Jod yelled. "THEY WANT TO TAKE ME BACK!!! NEVER!!!!!" Cal screamed and she tackled him, pinning him. "YOU HAVE TO LEARN CONTROL!!" She spat. "I CAN CONTROL MYSELF FINE!!" he then turned the tables and pinned her down. Suddenly they both flew apart, pinned by an invisible force. "Woah that was cool." Alice mumbled and looked at them authoritatively. "tell me now what the fuck is going on." she said.
"HANNAH! Do you smell that?"Nicole summoned her. She appeared beside her and took a deep breath. "Power cells. About 6.one place. Park Avenue." Hannah estimated. "Good girl." Nicole said. "Are you ready for the Hunting?" Hannah licked her lips. "always." they both slithered silently throughout new york, threading silently through the shadows. Meanwhile, Alice and co. were finally told about the life of Cal. "Well um, Cal has a power problem. He can consume others power's and use them as his own. Much like a drainers ability. You see, what the difference is, Drainers are made when a human and a Powercell have kids and don't give them this." she held up a vial of a cloudy, murky liquid. "This dulls their hunger for power. Usually, they know the recipe of the tonic or they contact a tracker to make it. Cal is a rare case. He took half of the vial, he is not fully stable." she continued. Alice thought so Sharon is a Drainer...that would make so much sense... "those who are offspring of two powercells have no need to do so. Basically, were aliens." Jod said calmly " wanna be a victim ready for abduction, boy you're an alien, your, touch so foreign. So supernatural, extra-terrestrial." Viv sang. "this is transcendental, on another level, boy your my lucky star." Damien cut in "for you I'd risk it all ALLL!! Kiss me, k-k-kiss me infect me with your love and fill me with your poison" Jen giggled and sang. After lightning the mood in the tense room, they went back to business. Hannah and Nicole were closing in. Then they heard a rustle and Alex joined them along with Dan. "how many of them do you guys have?" "6" "nice"
