He swatted Seth away as he was set on the couch, "I'm okay..really..just..amazed. How could she have survived? I sensed no life in her at all..." He leaned back on the couch, closing his eyes as he placed his arm over his head, "And this..being here...I hate it...I made it specifically clear to Serus that I..." He trailed off, moving his arm to look at Hayden. It wasn't likely she knew that Serus killed him upon request. He sighed, "I don't understand it..even Serus and Jaelynn combined couldn't pull th--"
"That my boy, is my handiwork~" Mystic appeared, his hands on his hips and a huge grin upon his face. "I had almost given up hope, but alas! You're alive~ My my, you're even cuter when you're conscious~ I can't imagine how incredible you were in your old body..some of Hayden's memories..mmph!' He trailed off, his mind slipping into Not-So-PG-13-Land again. He coughed, bringing himself back, "And before you ask, I'm a demon, and you're welcome." Hayden moved away from Serus, able to stand on her own now, "I..I don't really know myself So-" Solomon narrowed his eyes at Mystic, "Why did you bring me back? I don't..don't want to be here if.." He sighed, looking away from them as his thoughts drifted to Holden. His body shook a bit; his first thought very vivid images of him jabbing the knife into Holden's heart. He glared at Serus, fighting back his emotions, he thought he made that very clear to her. Serus held up her hands, "I'm sorry! It wasn't my idea." She pointed to Seth, "It was his idea because he wanted to make Hayden feel better. B-but don't be mad at him, please. I should've stopped them, per your wishes." Hayden looked at Serus confused, "W-what do you mean? S-Solo? What does she mean?" Serus held up her hand, silencing Solomon. She gently, yet firmly, grabbed Hayden by the shoulders, "You have to understand, I did not want to do this but he made me promise. A year or so after everything had happened, he ordered me to kill him; to put him out of his misery. H-Hayden listen! Please!" She shook the girl slightly, staring her dead in the eyes, "I really did not want to do it; I made him wait and think for weeks...I..never wanted to do it. A-and..I'm so sorry that I couldn't tell you the truth two years ago..but you have to try and understand where I'm coming from here." Hayden felt weak at the knees again as Serus told her what really happened. While she was furious with Serus, she understood why. She know how much Solomon loved Holden and that he could not live without him. She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath, "I..I understand.." |
Seth sat down on the bed as everything unfolded, his mind went to other places mainly Holden. "No Seth don't even think about it." He whispered to himself. "No Seth no." He thought to himself. He body was rocking back and forth, he couldn't say it. "We could bring Holden back." He said as he quickly covered his mouth. "Damn it!" He said with his hand still over his mouth. He looked down at the floor, disappointed in himself. Seth wanted to say something but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
|
Before Solomon could react, Serus swatted Seth with telekinesis, "Seth! Did you not see what happened to Mystic when with Solomon?"
Solomon pinched the bridge of his nose, "No..we can't...things are already messed up..as they are.." Even though he desperately wanted Holden back. He wanted nothing more than to hold him in his arms, kiss his lips[among other places], and many other things but he knew it wasn't possible. He knew of Serus's account of attachment, and both of them were lucky it had worked at all...yet alone, that they managed to survive. He looked away, bringing his hand up to wipe the tears that were building up. Mystic frowned, "Oh, don't be sad Solomon~" He sat down on the couch next to him, putting his arm around him, "Look, tell ya what, I will bring Holden back for you...because I can't stand seeing you or your pretty sister so sad. It's just heart breaking," He smiled a bit, "Come on, don't give me that look. I can do it, just like I did for you. He might even regain consciousness right away, or..not..it varies." Solomon frowned, jumping a bit as Mystic sat next to him, "You're..very strange..and I couldn't possibly allow you to do that. Without his sister, Holden might not be stable, and I don't want her back; as there's really no logical way to explain to her what happened without her knowing about us. And.." He sighed, running his hand through his hair, "I don't even want to be here right now...I..." Hayden came over, slapping Solomon across the cheek, "Solomon! You're going to just..throw away everything I just did for you!? I can't believe that you would rather be dead all because of one little boy! I understand that you love him, but he's just one person. You loved your wife, but you moved on...you can move on from this too..I know it'll be hard..." She sat on the arm of the chair, wrapping her arms around his shoulders and letting her head rest against his, "..but I know you can do it Solomon. O-or..let Mystic bring him back..Holden would be more than thrilled to be with you again...he would understand why Amanda can't come back.." Solomon rubbed his cheek after she hit him and before he could speak, she was ranting on. He sighed, looking away as she held him. She was right, after all...but...who knew how long it would take for either of the events to happen... Suddenly, Mystic stood, clearing his throat as he pointed to the floor, the complex circle reappearing, "If you're aiming to do this..I'm all set....just go find me a body." |
Suddenly a ghostly figure appeared in the room and the room got colder, no one could see it. But this figure knew that this Mystic could sense it. The figure floated over to Mystic and whispered something incoherent into Mystic's ear.
Seth noticed the chill in the air but said nothing. |
Solomon shook his head, "I said no! He can't come back and I shouldn't even be here myself!" He stood from the couch, pushing Hayden away, "Now one of you best kill me or I-" He shuddered a bit, feeling the chill. He was about to walk off when Mystic spoke.
Mystic looked over, puzzled, "Strange..that's never happened before..rather interesting~ Ah, I shall wait until you come to your senses Solomon~ I know you want him~" He grinned deviously, leaning back on the couch as he crossed his legs at the knee. He patted the couch, looking at..well..no one really he spoke in a tone of voice that only the Spirit would be able to hear; he didn't want to announce it right this second, "Come, sit. I can keep you here without you getting hurt. I have a feeling we know who you are~" He jumped a bit as he heard a commotion to the left and saw Solomon and Hayden on the floor. "Well~ I had..wait..Hayden!" Hayden grinned as Solomon said someone should kill him, "I see I was wrong in my selfish act..I'm sorry Solomon. At least, I can get a good meal out of it~" She lunged forward, biting down hard on his neck. She knocked him to the ground, quickly drinking his blood. She held him down with her hands as he struggled, "I knew you didn't really want to die Solomon, but you made up your mind." Soon, Solomon stopped moving and his heart stopped. Hayden sat up, licking the blood from her lips, "Well then...moving along." She moved her eyes up and down, counting in her head; she doubted either of them would notice. Suddenly, she pulled a knife from a sheath on her leg, dragging it across her palm, "Trust me Mystic, I know what I'm doing. Solomon didn't say how dead he wanted to be, and I know that once he's turned and had a good meal, he'll be thinking clearly..he'll want you to bring Holden back.." She shoved her palm on his mouth, forcing him to drink. |
The figure was ready to sit down when it saw Hayden and Solomon on the floor. The figure looked to Mystic and then back to Hayden and Solomon, the figure used its weak TK to push the lamps off of the night stands. "I want to talk to them now..." The figure said to Mystic, noticing that Solomon would now be a vampire. The room dropped to a very cold level as the figure got angry.
Seth jumped as the lamps flew off of the night stands, "How...?" He asked as he noticed the room getting colder. |
Mystic waved it off, "Don't worry about it Seth, we just have an angry guest~" He grabbed onto the air; to them at least, but in reality, the spirit, and forced him to sit down, "Now, you can't go wrecking someone else's house, that's just rude. And you should know she could never really harm him. Just relax, would you Holden?" He gave a sly look to Hayden and Seth, knowing Solomon could not hear at the moment.
Solomon awoke to something warm flowing down his throat. It didn't take him long to know it was blood. Dammit Hayden! He couldn't stop her though, of course. He knew that this was going to happen at some point..might as well get it over with. Then he felt another familiar sensation, pain. His eyes shot open as he curled up in a tight ball, his body felt like it was on fire. Hayden stood up, licking the dagger clean, looking to Mystic with red eyes, "I suppose it saves us the trouble of finding him..now all Solo needs to do is find a man he can stand to look at for eternity." She sighed, her eyes fading to blue, "How did he get here?" She then went down to Solomon, trying to ease the process for him. Mystic turned to face where the spirit sat, "Yes, do tell me how you managed to get here in this Plane, it's very difficult you know." |
If the figure had a face it would be frowning right now. "I don't know, something told me to go through a portal that appeared. And I ended up here." The figure said. "It was very painful, I don't want to go back..." The figure said starting to flicker. "No! Please... Don't... Make... Me go... Bac..." The figure said as it disappeared.
|
Mystic sighed, "I thought so..farewell for now~" He tapped the spirit lightly on the forehead, sending it away. He looked to Hayden, "How long will he be? It'll be a lot easier for me while Holden's spirit is so close to the Border."
Hayden put her forehead to Solomon's, "Couple days? I'm not sure..." She lifted Solomon up and placed him on the bed with a sigh, "Is there any way you can keep him close while Solomon turns?" Mystic shrugged, "Not if you want me to bring him back...I can't stretch my power like that.." He leaned back on the couch again, "We shall wait and deal with it when the time comes." Serus finally spoke, "Wait...could Jaelynn do it? She's rather proficient with spirits...she could probably hold him a day or two if Seth and I provide her with blood and extra power..correct?" Mystic shook his head, "That could be dangerous...that's why vampires don't usually get Ethereal powers...no offense.." She frowned, "None taken..." Suddenly, Solomon's eyes flew open and he bolted upright. He looked around, then quickly, but gently, clutched his head as a headache came on, "Dammit...ugh, I know I'm not fully turned yet..I still need to breathe..but..I overheard..." He looked away, then to Hayden, "You know me better than anyone, you can pick out the body while I finish turning. I trust you.." He smiled, laying back, twitching every now and then, "Unless, you want to wait..I don't care." Hayden shook her head, running over to grab Seth, "Take me back to London, please?" |
Seth nodded to Hayden and teleported to England, he did everything that he did before. "Well I feel Déjà vu. Pick 'em out." He said pointing to the crowd of people. "Serus, I don't like that Mystic is doing this again, he was very hurt the last time." Seth said waiting for Hayden.
|
Serus leaned up against the doorjam, watching silently, "I know Seth..but..he won't change his mind. I know he's set on it...Maybe I could get Jaelynn to help him out a bit, make the stress a bit less for his body.."
"No..I will analyze the body afterwards, as always. You know I can't really do much with spirits Serus...besides, it uses up way too much power.." Hayden looked through the crowd carefully. She scanned all the guys' minds to make sure they were single before choosing...she had forgotten to do so with Solomon and prayed she didn't make a mistake. After a moment, she pointed to a red haired man, "Him...I think Solo will like him. He's rather cute." Mystic looked over, sensing a bit of distress from Serus, "What's wrong, love? You seem upset? Oh, dear, don't worry about me. I will be fine, Holden's spirit will be much easier to attach, since I've spoken with him. His bond to the Realm is a lot weaker than Solomon's, especially considering the fact he wasn't even a vampire for a year...or was he? I don't know, but still...please don't look at me like that, I need you to have faith in my abilities." He gave her a reassuring smile, "Trust me, alright?" She sighed, "I trust you with this more than anyone." |
"Ok." Seth said as he swooped out of the alley. He ran up behind the man and put his hand over the man's mouth. But before he could knock out the man, he bit Seth's hand. "The son of a bitch bit me." He said to Hayden. He growled as he locked the man in place with TK and knocked him out. He wanted to let the man fall to the ground but he knew Solomon wouldn't like 'damaged' goods. He grabbed the man and went back over to Hayden, "He is a feisty one, just like Holden was. So I think he will do." He said putting his free hand on Hayden. He teleported back to the room, and put the body down where Solomon's laid almost two years ago. He let out a growl, "You better like this one Solomon, the little bastard bit me, I don't know how he felt me... But he did." Seth said looking at his hand, which was fully healed.
|
Hayden chuckled as Seth complained to Solomon, "You know he's unconscious again right?" She smiled going over and checking on Solomon before skittering back over to Mystic, "Do you need me this time?"
Mystic opened his eyes as Hayden addressed him, "Hm? No, I do not. I've already gotten a taste of Holden's spirit so I'll be able to find him myself. Oh, I would suggest moving Solomon to a room downstairs, the cold temperatures would not be good for him." He went over, examining the body and the circle, doubling checking everything. Hayden nodded, going over to Solomon and gently picking him from the bed and taking him to a small room on the second floor. She set him on the bed and lay next to him, "I hope I did good..." She sent an image of the boy's face to him via telepathy with a slight smile. Mystic pulled a rather strange knife from his belt and if you looked closely, one could swear the flames changed colors. He ran his finger along the edge, but did not cut the skin, checking it's sharpness, "Perfect..now..anyone who didn't like it the last time, I suggest you leave.." He winked, kneeling down by the edge of the circle. "And that is my cue~" Serus turned and left the room without another word. |
"Yes I do." Seth said with a small chuckle. "I will stay, I didn't mind it to much last time." He said as he walked over to the couch, he sat down and got ready to heat his skin. "Plus I will be here if you fall over again." Seth said with a smile.
|
I have the feeling that something worse will happen, he thought with a smile as he placed his hand over the body while he began to mutter again. Like before, the room became extremely cold and ice soon coated everything again. After a moment, Mystic soon entered the Ethereal Realm, it's smokey appearance changed colors since the last time he was here and was now in various tones and tints of green. "Oh Holden~"
|
"Yes?" The figure asked as it floated close to Mystic. "I'm ready to go." It said as it extended a part of itself.
Seth closed his eyes as the room got cold, "Serus how come I have a feeling that something is going to go wrong?" Seth asked warming his skin up. |
Mystic took the figure's hand, and as he held it the figure's appearance began to change to resemble Holden's old self. Mystic smiled, "Marvelous, now you might experience something rather uncomfortable.." And with that, his physical form stabbed the boy in the heart while his Ethereal form threw the spirit into the the body. He placed both hands over the body as he continued to mutter attaching Holden's spirit to the body.
After a few minutes the room slowly returned to normal and once it was Mystic's form curled forward, his forehead being driven into the floorboards. He was thankful his hair was so long as it served as a sort of blanket covering his face and torso. His face was violently contorted with pain as he grabbed at his shirt by his heart. This spirit attachment business was risky..no wonder there was always a group. His body trembled a bit as the pain wracked his body and what skin could be seen was almost pure white; as before. "Jae..?" he tried to speak with a normal tone, but was mostly unsuccessful. Jaelynn was there in an instant, instantly hovering over the body, analyzing it and reinforcing the bond. "You almost slipped Mystic..." she said, making sure only he could hear. Once she was finished she picked up the body, and set him on the bed, "Well then, how ya feeling Seth? Didn't freeze did you?" |
The boy heard voices, but he couldn't open his eyes or speak.
Seth opened his eyes when Jaelynn spoke to him. "Ya I'm fine, since I wasn't heating up Serus. I was warming myself up." He said standing up. He rushed over to Mystic and helped him up. "Next time you do this, you need a ring of demons." He said moving Mystic to the couch. He set him down, "Need anything?" Seth ask kneeling down. |
Mystic swatted at his hands, "D-dont move me..." He winced as Seth grabbed him and set him on the couch. Instantly he was doubled over in pain, "I was...fine on the floor.." The pigment of his skin refused to return, "How is he?" He rested his head on his knees, his pale skin almost translucent; revealing the various indigo blood vessels beneath. He was purposefully ignoring Seth's comment about a ring. He was perfectly capable of doing it himself, so as long as it's not right after the other.
Jaelynn came over, hovering close to Mystic, "He's doing well..considering. We mean it Mystic, no more unless you have a full ring of demons..understand?" She gently put her index finger on the tip of his pointed ear with a frown, jumping as she pulled it away, "Ouch...Mystic..why are you so..cold?" Mystic jumped as Jaelynn touched his ear, "Do you have..any idea how cold it is in there? Now someone warm me up I'm freezing!" He shook again, in tremendous pain from the cold. By now, a bit of pigment has returned to his skin, "I have no idea why it's so much severe than last time..." He trailed off, shivering again. |
Seth rubbed his hands together, "Since your so cold this might hurt." He said as he pushed up Mystic's arm warmers. He put his hands on Mystic's arm and sent a wave of warmth over Mystic's body. He suddenly felt a pressure on his heart, he stopped and clenched his chest. "What the hell?" He asked painfully. "Annemarie Elisabeta Augustin! Stop!" He said sending a blast of TK through her link. "Damn child." Seth said putting his hands back on Mystic, to warm him up.
"Solo...mon..." The boy said weakly. |
Jaelynn went over to the boy, placing her head on his head, "Hmm..interesting...Maybe your almost screw up was helpful Mystic..." She sent him an evil smile then left the room, "I'm going to check on Hayden and Solomon."
Mystic winced as Seth touched him; even before he gathered up any power the man's hands were burning on his skin. Suddenly his body felt as if it was on fire, and it might as well be for the amount of heat going over him. His skin quickly flushed with purple pigment then faded slightly as Seth removed his hands. He shivered a bit, but it was no where near as bad as before. |
"Better?" Seth asked looking over to the boy. "Hopefully it doesn't take two years like it did for Solomon, or eight years for Serus." He said with a sigh. He stood up and sat down next to Mystic, "He is going to want to be turned." Seth said leaning back on the couch.
Suddenly the boy's eyes opened and he glanced around. He sat up and his attention went to where the voices came from. "WH-..who are you people? What are you going to do to me?" The boy asked as he rolled off the bed. "I-I'm sorry, whatever I did. I'm sorry.." The boy said running into the bathroom. He locked the door and sat on the floor. Seth's attention snapped to the boy, he was going to say something but the boy was suddenly in the bathroom. "I had a feeling this was going to happen." He said as he stood up and went over to the bathroom door. "Holden, Holden, it's me Seth. Come out, you didn't do anything wrong." Seth said pounding on the door. "Serus, Jae, Hayden, and Solomon, you might want to come in here. Holden is up, and he has no memory, he is just like you were Serus." |
Mystic stood with a slight shudder, "Ah..well, there's our answer." He went over to Seth, shaking his head, "It's best they stay away for now. Let him settle down; the bathroom has now windows so we know he won't slip away. Just let him calm down first." He took Seth's hand away from the door, "You don't have to hit it so hard..." He looked to the door, "Wait here, alright?"
Suddenly his appearance changed; his ears became human and his skin was now tan. He tapped the door where the lock was then opened it as it unlocked. He quickly stepped inside, shutting and locking the door, blocking off the room with telekinesis. He smiled a bit to Holden, "What's your name?" Solomon was suddenly awake, but he didn't move. He really wanted to go upstairs, but he just felt so weakened right now. He looked over to Hayden and Jaelynn, "Hayden, come on...I need to feed..." Hayden hurried over, helping Solomon up, "Of course." She smiled slightly, teleporting them to an alley way. She leaned him up against the wall, "I'll be right back, alright?" She hurried off and moment later she came back with an unconscious woman. |
The boy jumped when the man walked into the bathroom, "I-..I'm Connor Evans. What is going on? Where am I? Who are you?" The boy asked shaking a little bit. Tears were falling from his golden eyes.
Seth sighed as Mystic walked into the bathroom, "Why did this have to happen?" He asked himself as he went over to the chair. "Serus? What are we going to do? Why did I have to come up with this idea? I should have just left well enough alone. But no, I had to get more involved then I already was." Seth said pinching his nose. |
Serus appeared next to Seth, pulling him into a hug, "Seth, just relax. Don't worry about it..Hayden's happy that Solomon is back, and Solomon and Holden will have each other soon enough. It'll be alright." She gave him a kiss on the cheek, looking to the bathroom, "No memory I take it?"
Mystic came over, crouching down with a soft smile, "Pleasure to meet you Connor, just relax alright? You're not in any danger here. Before I can tell you anything, I need you to be calm, okay?" He held out his hand, his long claw-like nails quickly shrank to normal proportions, "Oh where are my manners? Name's Mystic." |
Seth smiled a bit and hugged Serus back, "No he does not." He said with a small sigh. "Why are you so good to me? I mean twenty-one years ago you kicked my ass because I was a jerk to you." He said looking in Serus' eyes. "And look at us now." He said as he sat down in the chair, he pulled Serus down so she was sitting on his lap. "I love you Serus." Seth said resting his head on Serus' shoulder.
The boy tried to crawl away from the man but since he was already in a corner he couldn't. "I wanna go home, to Connecticut." He said drying his tears. |
"Love you too," Serus smiled, playing with Seth's hair a bit, "Twenty-one years? Been that long? I can't believe it..." She chuckled a bit, resting her head on his, "He'll come around in due time."
Mystic frowned, putting his hand on Holden's shoulder, "Ho-Connor, please try and settle down. I know this is very shocking to you.." He quickly removed his hand with a frown, "Are you hungry or anything Connor? I'm sure you must be.." He backed away a bit, giving him some space. |
"I know, we are getting old." Seth said with a small chuckle. "I know he will, I just wish I could help him. I don't want to shock him into remembering, like I did you." He said with another sigh. "Did you know that I actually fell in love with you when you killed Cecil?" He said taking in Serus' scent. "Your power and evilness really turned me on." Seth said with a evil smile.
"You almost called me Holden, just like that man." The boy said pointing to the door. "There is something weird going on here and your not telling me everything." The boy said as he stood up leaning on the wall. "I'm not hungry, and I wont do anything until you tell me what the hell is going on here." The boy said clenching his fists. |
Serus grinned darkly, swinging one leg to the other side so she was straddling him. She kissed him lightly on the lips, "Ohh?" She rested her forehead on his, "Well then, I surely can be evil~"
Jaelynn appeared, swatting Serus upside the head, "Don't you even think about it Serus! You are worse than rabbits!" She pulled Serus off of Seth, "Now behave until everyone's gone." Mystic sighed, standing up, "I won't tell you anything until you calm down, that's the deal." His eyes turned violet for a second and his skin flashed to it's traditional indigo color, "Alright fine, I don't have much time or power left so I'll just jump right to it. Your name is Holden Micheal Evans, alright? Three and a half years ago, you were murdered along with everyone you loved. Two years ago, your boyfriend's sister came out of her coma and asked me to bring him back..." He sighed, leaning up against the sink, holding his head with one hand. With a slight groan, he reverted back to his real appearance, "And about 20 minutes ago, I brought you back." He could tell Holden didn't believe him, and that he was getting rather scared as he took in Mystic's appearance. He stepped over, grabbing onto Holden's forehead and pushed him against the wall, "This is going to hurt and it's going to be bloody..." He entered Holden's mind breaking the block on his memories and letting them pour into his conscious mind. |
"I miss you evilness." Seth said with a smile as Jaelynn appeared. "Hey we are not animals, well mostly not." He said with a wink to Serus. He held up his hand to Jaelynn, "Ya I know." He said as he slapped himself upside the head. He snapped his attention the the bathroom as he heard commotion. "Great.."
The boy got wide eyed as he saw Mystic's true appearance. Suddenly he was up against the wall, and images were flying through his head. The boy grabbed his head an screamed out in pain. Suddenly the last image slowed down and he was in the moment... "No Solomon, I can't let you heal me." Holden said grabbing Solomon's hand off of his chest. He wasn't crying anymore, and he could feel his anger rise. He gently laid Amanda on the floor and closed her eyes. He felt really weak but at the same time power was rolling off of him. He picked up Solomon so he was sitting, his eyes were a dull gray. He looked Solomon dead in the eyes, "You have to kill me Solomon. I feel my mind breaking, if you were to somehow heal me who knows what I would do." He said closing his eyes to keep it from breaking before he wanted it to. "I love you Solomon." He said pulling Solomon into a deep but weak kiss. He pulled out a throwing knife and put it in Solomon's hand. "You were the best thing to happen to me. And none of this is your fault, please remember that." Holden said with a smile as he waited for Solomon to end his life for the final time. The boy fell to his knees and quickly fell into unconsciousness, he fell face first on the floor breaking his nose. |
Serus frowned, "Poor boy...I know how it feels.."
Mystic let his hand fall as the memories came pouring through. He slumped over slightly as he went back to leaning against the sink again. He was rather weak from the attachment process. Suddenly the boy fell forward and broke his nose, "Oh my.." He crouched down, picking Holden up, resetting his nose while he moved him to the bedroom and placed him on the bed, "That went..well.." He gently lay Holden on the bed, moving some hair from his face, "Anyone know where Solomon is? I think he should be here now..." At that moment, Solomon and Hayden had appeared. His green eyes were glowing rather brightly for a moment, "At least, I'm not the typical fledgling." He tensed slightly, sensing a familiar presence in the room. Holden. Yet, at the same time, it was not Holden, not entirely. Yet. He sighed, "So..why did it take me two years, Serus eight, and him only a few minutes? I don't quite understand it." He shoved his hands in his pockets, watching Mystic cautiously. He got a strange feeling from the demon. Mystic stood with a shrug, "I honestly couldn't tell you. Maybe it has something to do with how you died, or how you're brought back, or how attached you are to the Living World at the time..no one knows. It just varies from person to person." He stepped away and sat on the couch, "Now, pardon me being rude in this, but is there anyone else I'll be needing to revive in the next few years? I pray not?" Hayden shook her head, "N-not that I know of Mystic..." |
Holden was still in the moment he died, "Solomon, I chose this lifestyle. I will always love you." He said weakly as he put his hand in the air, he thought it was Solomon's cheek. "Quickly, I can't hold it much longer." He said in a whisper. He felt the knife go through his heart, he gurgled and sat up quickly clenching his heart. He opened his eyes, he scanned the room and saw Seth, Serus, Jaelynn, Hayden, and two people he didn't know.
"Hay-..Hayden?" He asked weakly looking at her. He got up off of the bed and walked over to her. As he got over to her he fell to his knees, he pulled on her kimono to stand up. He wrapped his arms around her neck as he fully got up. "Yo-..Your alive, Solomon would of been terribly upset if you were dead. Wh-..where is Solomon? I can't sense or smell him. Whats going on?" He asked squeezing Hayden harder. Holden's mind instantly went back to the day he died, "I... I couldn't hold my mind together, why did that happen to me? I couldn't save anyone..." He trailed off. He let go and fell to his knees, he moved to his butt. "Solomon? Where are you?" Holden asked pulling his knees to his chest. |
Hayden went down with Holden the second time he fell. She held onto him gently, "Holden..I don't think you understand exactly what happened. Holden..you're..your human again..your spirit was reattached to someone else's body...just as..he was.." She pointed to the blonde haired man in the corner.
Mystic sighed, "Well thank goodness~ I don't think I'll survive the next one. Call if you need me." And with that, he vanished. Solomon hand his hands deep in his pockets as Holden went over to his sister. He waited until Hayden was finished before coming over. He knelt down next to Hayden, facing Holden of course. He cautiously reached out and touched his face, "I..don't believe it...Holden..?" Suddenly he grabbed onto him pulling him into a tight hug, "I..I can't believe this is possible..." He continued to hold him, refusing to let him go. Serus grabbed Seth's hand and gently led him from the room, "Come on, we should let them have time alone." She quietly shut the door behind them and led him downstairs to the first floor. |
Holden sat there limp as the blonde hared man hugged him. He felt the safety and warmth wrap around him, but this can't be. "Y-..you can't be my Solomon. He was alive..." He said looking to Hayden. He started shaking, "I..I need to see your face." He said pushing the man away. When the man let go he grabbed the mans face. He stared at him intently, and looked into his eyes.
Holden's eyes lit up, "Solomon!" He said placing a kiss on Solomon's lips. He broke the kiss when he felt something weird in his mouth, "What the hell?" He asked moving his tongue around in his mouth. He looked around for a mirror, he found one. He leaned on Solomon and Hayden to stand up, he walked over to the mirror and opened his mouth. "This guy had his tongue pierced. I hope it is the only thing." He said as he started to unbutton his shirt. He opened it and quickly shut it, he turned around and looked at Solomon. "This dude was a freak, my fucking nipples are pierced." He said as he got wide eyed. He quickly ran to the bathroom and shut the door. He quickly undid his pants and pulled them down along with his underwear. He looked down, "Oh thank god." Holden said leaning back on the door. |
Hayden looked away, "Like I was supposed to know!"
Solomon almost didn't want to let Holden go. He stood up as Holden went to the bathroom. He knew what Holden was doing, and he didn't blame him. He went over to the door, seeing as he didn't come back out, "Holden..please don't tell me...I can deal with the tongue and such, but not that." |
Holden smiled as Solomon spoke, "Your just going to have to come in here and see." He said locking the door. He quickly pulled up his pants, he unlocked the door and opened it. "It's clean." He said with a smile. "Now little Miss Hayden, why did you have to pick out a body that was cuter than my original?" He asked putting his hands on his hips. "I'm jus kidding sweety." He said with a smile. He looked at Solomon, "What was that thing, with the wings and the grr? Holden asked making claws with his fingers.

Solomon chuckled a bit, bringing Holden in to a tight hug, almost forgetting that he was crushing him with his vampiric strength. He quickly loosened his grip before he could hurt Holden, "She couldn't find me a guy with black hair either~" He sniffled; fake. He laughed at Holden, almost falling over, "That, was a demon, Holden. Very powerful creatures and you better pray you never meet one that's chasing you."
Hayden pouted, sticking her tongue out at them, "Hey, I tried! Can you blame me? I wasn't going to go searching the world for your 'twins'. No way. Just be happy you're here at all!" She frowned deeply, then looked away, "I could've just not brought you back.." Solomon frowned slightly, going over to his sister and holding her tight, "Hayden I'm sorry, I'm very grateful. I'm so sorry about..everything..." |
"Ya Hayden we love you." Holden said walking over to her. He quickly gave her a hug, "Now I have to say I am not liking this not being able to smell thing." He said letting go of Hayden. "I will be right back, I need to go and talk to Seth." He said giving Solomon a kiss on the cheek. "Now be good." He said giving Solomon a wink. He went to the door and opened it, he closed it when he got out into the hallway. "Wait I don't know this house... Um Seth?!" Holden said hoping Seth wouldn't appear right next to him.
"I'll be back, Holden called me." Seth said giving Serus a kiss on the cheek. He quickly disappeared, he landed right next to Holden. "What do ya need Holden?" He asked with a smile. Holden jumped into the door, "Son of a!" He said grabbing his chest. "Be careful, I'm human here. You about gave me a heart attack." He said gasping for air. "Sorry, I forgot. But what do you need?" Seth asked crossing his arms. "My money. These clothes are hideous." Holden said forgetting that his shirt was still open. |
Solomon frowned a bit, "We'll take care of t hat once you're stable. Alright?" He looked over to Hayden with a frown, "I really don't want to turn him this time...It brought him nothing but pain and misery.." He sat down on the edge of the bed, resting his head in his hands while he propped them up on his knees. "I..I know he'll want to, and if I don't do it, I'm afraid he'll go behind my back..."
Hayden sat next to him, leaning on him slightly as she wrapped her arm around him, "I know Solomon, but, this time around, no one will be after you. Everyone thinks you're dead...you two can finally relax and have a wonderful life together. I know you want that, but you want him to remain human...but..you also know that's not possible." He sighed again, "I know..but..I..I don't know what to do or how I can make him understand.." |
"I'm also assuming you sold all of my cars, correct?" Holden asked leaning against the door. "Wait never mind, I can't drive, because I don't have a license." He said checking his pockets for a wallet. He pulled out a Velcro wallet, "What was this guy five?" He asked holding up the wallet. He opened it, and read the license, "Haha this guy's name was Grady Lancaster." Holden said showing the license to Seth.
"Yes I sold your cars, I have no space for them." Seth said looking down. "You can have it changed, because well technically this is you." He said running his hand through his hair. "I have to run to the bank to get you money out. But I will only give you a little bit, because well you don't need 500 million dollars in your pocket. But then again those pockets could fit $500 mill." Seth said with a smile. "Now go tell Solomon, and I will go and tell Serus. I do have a car in Wisconsin, it isn't as nice as your old cars but it will do." Seth said disappearing. Holden nodded and opened the door, "Love? I am gonna go out with Seth. I am going to get some clothes, plus go to somebody to get these damn piercings out." He said buttoning his shirt. He walked over to Solomon, he bent over and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. Holden walked back out the door and waited for Seth. |
