A boy wrapped in bandages, laid unconscious. The sound of monitors showed he was still alive. From the window, a doctor and Liz were discussing if he'll live or not.
"What's his condition doc?"
"Jorge sustained a serious head injury. We we're able to save him but we don't know if he'll truly be alright."
"Its not zero right?"
"Technically... No. He could be in this coma for the rest of his life, wake up and have no motor function what's so ever, or even completely lose his memories but one thing is certain. The boy won't escape unscathed... Lady Elizabeth.. Did you know this would happened?"
"No. Truth is, I can't see into Jorge's future. He's an anomaly.. an outside factor like my uncle and dad"
"Is that normal?"
"Usually no but I've seen my fair share of people like that. There's a loophole you see. You have to look into the future of others that are involved with said anomaly and base your actions around that. For example, we need to expand our facility. Make it a juvenile prison and get rid of the adults!"
"But why?"
"Why? It was your idea, I simply decided not to wait for you to come to that conclusion. Get rid of them! Send them to the prison in Julie's domain. I'll make sure to apologize to her later."
"But I'm just a doctor.. You're the warden. Right?"
"Right.. where are my peeps?. Its time to change this place!"
2 years passed and all the adult were relocated from the facility. The only people who remained consisted of young normal juvenile's and Jorge. His recovery was going well but could no longer remember anything since before the accident. He felt alone, separated from the other blocks that continued to house other kids, teens, and soon to be young adults. It wasn't until a girl wrapped in bandages introduced herself as Chris.
"Don't worry Jorge. I'll remember your name for you."
Liz left to talk to a doctor on where things were going to go from here.
"Why wrap the girl in bandages? Her condition is perfect."
"They won't know that and besides. She's too pretty, we must hide her at all cost!"
"Was that really the reason? You can't even tell she's a girl now."
"Maybe."
She winked at him.
"Your highness... That makes three now. We have yet to release the other boy because of his urges. Every full moon, it gets harder to control him."
"He'll be fine. We just need the right drugs to suppress him."
"You're the reason I'm going bald."
"So Jorge. If he doesn't remember, then we'll just have to leave it like this for now."
"He's more sensitive. Nothing like his old personality. Are you sure this will be good for him? What about your family?"
"Living among vampires really didn't help express his emotions. being with humans will fix that but I can't have someone with his abilities walking outside yet. Control is key. Eventually someone will use or kill him."
"And your family?"
"Huh? oh yea, don't worry. My dad won't interfere. Gabriel won't care although I'm sure he does. Al might be a little sad and Lisa? Well, she still sleeping and won't wake up for another year or 2.. I'll tell them he didn't make it.. It'll be fine. What's next"
"His abilities."
"He can't control it?"
"Yes, he's still recovering. Getting carried away can cause serious damage. From what we know, his body heats up. Almost as if suppressing energy, then he releases it. It explains that sudden burst of power, whether its internal or external."
"Is there a limit?"
"No, he can keep going as long as his body can endure it. But he has no immunity or buff, just a normal body like anyone else.. Internally that is."
The doctor pulled out the results they had on Jorge.
"Having extra strength is the only thing his body can endure. If only we had more studies on him, it would help build a better plan. Its unfortunate he awakened right when the city was being attacked. Your highness, If a time ever comes when he is over using his powers... He'll melt from the inside."
"Unless I can buff him up."
"You mean turning?! Becoming a vampire could help but we don't know if he'll even retain his abilities! and he's still young.."
"No not turning him.. I have something better and don't worry about his memories. They'll come back to him over time. I'll even record them."
"The all knowing Chroniclers.."
Liz's eyes glowed. Standing in a trance while speaking.
"We're going to need more special people."
"Why do you keep making these sudden decisions?!"
"What ever do you mean?"
"If the other families finds out your trying to amass power or.."
"Don't worry. They won't."
The man slumped his shoulders in defeat. He wasn't afraid of the vampire Infront of him. Just knowing that all her choices in life felt like the ideas of a mad man.
"Where are you going to find these kids?"
"I don't know. I just know that I do. The real question is... Why do I find these kids?"
----------------------------------------
Below the church, Jorge broke the wall. Staring down 2 people as they sat behind Clarissa's collapsed body.
"June.. and another fellow I don't know." (Jorge)
"You shouldn't be here Jorge." (June)
"Alex isn't with you?" (Jorge)
"No he isn't." (June)
"It's over June. Let Clarissa go. Come with us. We're going to save Alex too." (Jorge)
"He won't go with you and I'm not leaving without him. I was hoping you would be on our side." (June)
"Dam it June.. Don't do this." (Jorge)
"I have my orders." (June)
June's hair spread in all directions. Each strand coming together and forming a spear, pointing directly at Jorge. Focusing his magic on the right leg, Jorge stomped on the ground, making it erupt. It sent shock waves towards June and her ally.
"When did he get this strong?" (June)
"June he's gone!" (Fatso)
"No, he's hiding behind these rocks somewhere.. Come out Jorge, your leg must be hurting. It was a nice try but I know you can't keep this going for long." (June)
Behind a bolder, his leg wasn't broken but there was repercussions.
Shit, I was worried my leg would be destroyed... I can't do that move again. I might hurt Clarissa.. June is going to be a problem.. Her hair is good for defense and long range attacks. Not to mention the big guy. What can he do?
"Come on Jorge!" (June)
Putting the bat within the back of his shirt, Jorge leaped out throwing rocks he found on the ground at her. His strength increased their speed which she in turn, made a shield using her hair. Jorge continued to walk while throwing projectiles like a base ball in order to force June to fight in close combat.
"Not bad Jorge." (June)
"You can't protect him June. Pick and choose." (Jorge)
The large man cried in fear.
"No thanks." (June)
Protect him? Is he not worried about the girl? (June)
The moment he ran of rocks, June used a part of her hair to extend towards Jorge. Blocking it with his bat changed its form into an L-shape.
"Ahh I didn't even get to use the bat like I wanted to!" (Jorge)
Lowering her guard, Jorge got angry and sent his bat flying. The impact to her face cause a momentary distraction. Jorge snuck in and kicked her to the side.
"Alright Blob man, now its just us." (Jorge)
"What did you just call me?" (Blob man formally known as Fasto)
"No don't!" (June)
Jorge swung his fist but was hit with a cloud of purple smoke, leaving him frozen like a statue.
I can't move.
"Go to sleep and don't ever wake up, boy."
He fell face first on the ground.
"Ha, that's what you get! Your a dead man now."
"Stop.. Don't hurt him.."
"June. He threw a bat at you! Ivan said that if anyone were to show up. We were allowed to kill them."
"Yes but.."
"I can't take you seriously when blood is coming out of your nose. So what if he's one your guys. He called me Blob!"
The Blob man raised his foot to stomp on Jorge's head. June yelled and was about to intervene until another piece of the wall was blown away.
"Who's there?"
Red eyes were staring right back at them.
-----------------------------
This vampire is crazy!! Her clothes are town, one more move and she'll be fighting naked! (Chris)
Chris was freaking out over everything but Selena didn't care. Once she raised her arms, the part of her clothes that was still being kept up began to slip and her cleavage slowly started to appear.
"I've been wanting to try my godfathers gift. Well here goes.." (Selena)
Selena was about to cut her finger until Julie showed up. Her hand supporting the clothing that was about to fall off.
This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
"That's enough Selena, they'll take it from here. Put this on." (Julie)
Everyone was confused. Julie took off her coat, revealing pants, shirt, and tie in all black with a sword attached to her waist. The door to the church busted open and one arrow came flying in, piercing Big Man.
"Instant death! Oh I'm sorry Lisa.. I just went for the kill. I figured it was ok since he wasn't in his teens like you said.. Dam I should have waited!!" (?)
"Emma! You know Lisa likes having a cool intro." (??)
"Enough. Bree, no one needs to know that.. And Emma, you did good but if you were doubting your judgement.. Then yea, you should have waited." (Lisa)
Three girls walked into the church, only one of them had black hair but they all had reds eyes; signs of being a vampire.
"It's about time you hit me up Selena! You know I've been dying for some action!" (Lisa)
"Corny as always." (Selena)
Flare and Hyna grouped up
"Reinforcements?" (Hyna)
"They took down Big Man!" (Flare)
Lisa started to converse with her friends.
"Emma, remember everything you've learn until now. Locate Clarissa for me." (Lisa)
"Say less chief!" (Emma)
The girl called Emma closed her eyes and everything went dark. Opening her mouth and used echo location to scan the building.
"Below us, I sense 4 figures. 3 of them are moving" (Emma)
"Got it, you guys stay here. In 5 minutes, I want you to shoot every arrow you have to the bottom floor Emma." (Lisa)
"Roger!" (Emma)
Lisa jumped into the hole in front of her and descended down to the lower floor.
What? Some one already made a hole? No. I wanted to do that!! What ever, I'll just make another. (Lisa)
Punching the wall, she ended tearing everything down
"Who's there?" (June)
"I would say goodnight but that's not really a greeting is it? Its 2 in the morning so.. Good morning, I'm Lisa Chronicler." (Lisa)
"A noble?" (June)
"Shit, she's related to Mabel! I didn't sign up for this.." (Blob)
Lisa stared down at their toes and noticed Clarissa passed out. Once she saw the boy, she muttered his name quietly.
"Jorge... But sister said.."
While distracted, Lisa moved to the right as hair shaped like large drills came crashing down.
"I have so many questions, so I'll end this."
"Same."
Lisa used each hand to claw the other, making blood trickle out. June shrunk the drill she made to preserve more parts of her hair, the result being multiple weapons at her disposal. Every attack she sent was easily dodged, Lisa moved like an acrobat and none of it was wasted. With every jump she would flick her blood and the droplets would turn into small iron balls that were shot like bullets.
Dam, she's just like Jorge. Has she been training him? Putting me on the defensive. Her accuracy.. not one of those iron like bullets have gotten close to hitting Jorge or the girl. This fatso has been quivering on his knees the whole time.
"Alright, this is getting boring."
Lisa stopped jumping, her blood moved and covered her hand. Each finger took the form of knives.
"How insulting!"
She was about to attack but Lisa vanished. Once she did, arrows from above rained down on them. June and Blob got separated from Jorge and Clarissa. She was fast enough to block Lisa's attack but the claws were so strong, they were torn to shreds.
"Arrows? Claws? My hair! This girl is going to leave me bald!
Lisa was able to get in-between them, wrapping both in iron like wires from her hand. She rotated and flung them to the other side of the room.
It is Jorge... the magic circulating threw him is more powerful than Clarissa. Is this the fatso's power? Does he get weaker the more people are under his influence?
Lisa flicked Clarissa's fore head, waking her up.
"Where the hell am I? Lisa?" (Clarissa)
"Hey. You alright?" (Lisa)
"Yea, that guys magic.. inhaling his smoke will put you under his control." (Clarissa)
"I thought so." (Lisa)
"Jorge? Why is he.." (Clarissa)
"Saving you obviously! Try and wake him up I'll deal with these guys." (Lisa)
Over by June, Blob was freaking out.
"June, do something." (Blob)
"Shut up Blob. Dam, if you didn't have all that gas in you, you'd at least be able to dodge a hit or two!" (June)
Lisa started walking towards them but stopped. She felt the energy of someone she knew quite well and it was coming from Jorge.
Why am I sensing my sister?
--------------------------------------------
During Lisa fight, Julie told Selena to stand back. Unsheathing her sword.
"Lady Julie, we can handle them!" (Bree)
"No, you guys are still fresh. Lisa may have turned you but she's not in charge of your training. That's going to be my job. I can't have any blood coming into contact and driving you guys crazy." (Julie)
"Julie, you haven't use that sword in over a hundred years.." (Selena)
"Do you know? Of all the weapons Liz could have used to fight me.. She used her swords. The sword I forged for her. (Julie)
Selena closed her eyes.
"When she beat me, she also made that face. My family name is Gwendoline and we hail from a house of swordsman. We're decedents from the Knights of the Round table." (Julie)
Julie spoke as the hand holding her sword trembled.
"Julie, you haven't lost it.. the talent.." (Selena)
"Oh its time!" (Emma)
Emma jumped and shot her arrows at random places on the floor except for one spot, the two unmoving figures.
"What the hell is going on? Ahh my head!" (Chris)
Chris fell down on one knee.
"Emma is just following order. My name is Bree by the way. Your hair is so pretty!" (Bree)
"What? (Chris)
"Focus you two! Sorry Julie. Lisa told me too, now I'm all yours!" (Emma)
"These dam brats! What happened to calling me Lady Julie?" (Julie)
"Julie, they're kids...Wait! I'm sensing Liz's magic.." (Selena)
"How?" (Julie)
-----------------------------------------------
"Where am I?"
Jorge floated in a pitch black room, an endless abyss.
"That's right, Blob Man did something to me.. If I'm dreaming then..."
Before him was the person with white hair and green eyes who he had been seeing in his dreams.
"Ah, it's you. Well my subconscious, it feels like I'm going to be here for a while, willing to talk to me now?"
He floated to the child.
"I'm not your subconscious idiot. Every time I'm about to say something, you disappear."
"You talked!! Wait, your not? who are you?"
"I'm your twin sister."
"My... What?"
"You don't remember do you? We used to always talk in our dreams. When we were kids of course."
"Yea, I had an accident and lost my memories."
"That's not the reason why."
"What happened?"
"I died."
She reached her hand out to Jorge and signaled him to connect his palms with hers. Once they did, the scenery changed and now they stood within a forest.
"Where are we? You never explained to me how your still here if you died.."
"I'll explained everything when I find you, I don't have much time. The only reason we were able to connect is because you still have your original magic but something else is flowing through you and it's going to awaken soon. My body and blood changed so I wasn't able to connect to you anymore, luckily you found me."
"I don't understand.."
"This forest is just outside the Last Frontier. Where we were born."
"I'm from the Last Frontier? Wait what do you mean by original?"
"No, not really. Our mother got us out of there when we were babies."
Jorge decided to just settle with the information he got.
"How am I seeing this memory?"
"With us connected, our magic becomes stronger, our connection becomes stronger."
They heard the sounds of steps and heavy breathing as a woman came running passed them. She carried 2 babies in her arms as they cried. The foot steps of others followed, her pursuers.
"I see, how do you know this stuff?"
"The person who saved me. She told me everything."
The girl told Jorge to focus now.
"I wish I could just find one normal person who can actually explained things perfectly.."
The woman holding the babies hid behind a tree in order to catch her breath. Gently placing them on the ground.
"My sister?"
"Yes.. there was a third child,"
She looked away.
"So we're not twins, we're triplets."
"Yea."
The woman cried while holding Jorge. Begging for anyone to help. The sounds of shots echoed, hitting her in the back.
The Sound of his crying assured her that he was ok.
Two men; one in a robe and the other in his military uniform laughed from a distance.
Blood spilled from her mouth.
The man in the robe pulled out a tag as it glowed green. A strong gust of wind picked her off from the ground. Keeping Jorge close, her body twisted in the air. The man then used the same tag to help push him off the ground in order to catch up. Before they knew it, the forest changed and a woman with green hair caught Jorge and his mother.
The man looked over at the woman and with just her hand alone, his head was cut clean off.
The light faded from her eyes. Jorge looked down at his mother.
"So your name is Ericka?"
'Yes."
"And what happened to you?"
Ericka brought Jorge back to the forest where a baby laid all alone, crying. The other man yelled for his partner but he was gone.
His body was engulfed in flames, with out a chance to even scream, he turned to ash.
"Who's she?"
"The one I told you about. Roxanne."
She picked up Ericka and stopped her crying. Her hand touch the woman's face, moving it up to her one black eye.
"You didn't have to show me all this."
"I wanted to, in order to gain your trust. We're family."
"Sorry, I'm happy to know that I have sisters, but I don't remember you. You're still a stranger to me. Regardless, thank you for showing me this."
"Stranger you say... You don't belong in that city, allow me to save you."
"No need, I've already been saved.."
Jorge, I need you to wake up! You came to save me right?
A loud voice came running down them. The atmosphere around him changed.
"Jorge?"
"Save.. Saving.. That's right! I need to help Clarissa!"
"No, forget about her! Don't leave us yet."
She held onto Jorge's wrist with a hard grip. Eyes rolling back like receiving information, Jorge pulled away when he felt electricity running in his arm.
"Us? No, forget it, I can't stay here Ericka. I must go, goodbye sister."
She looked into his eyes and notice they were flickering from brown to red. Eventually his whole world shattered like glass and Jorge was all alone.
"Where am I now?"
This voice.. I know this voice.
He found his younger self laying on a bed while Elizabeth sat by the edge, tucking him in.
Liz sliced her hand. Her blood didn't move normally, its as if gravity was turned off. It formed into a sphere.
Be patient she says.. Warden.. I'm trying to live happily but...
His past self looked into her eyes as she spoked and was mesmerized by her eyes.
Liz's blood entered his mouth. The eyes of both the current and past Jorge glowed red.
"I'm starting to remember little by little now. Liz.. "
The world once again crumbled and Jorge was standing back at the church.
"He woke up." (Clarissa)
"Impossible my magic should have left him sleeping forever." (Blob)
Lisa chuckled while Jorge was still focused on the things he remembered.
"I can't believe I almost called you my mom but I guess its not totally wrong." (Jorge)
"Jorge should you be standing up?" (Clarissa)
"I'm fine Clarissa. I'm going to end this quick." (Jorge)
He sent energy to his legs in order to give him a powerful push. Moving like a ball that was shot from a cannon, June used her hair in order to restrain him. Blood spilled from different locations of his body but he didn't flinch. Even as each strand went in from one body part and out the other, Jorge simply grabbed on to it. Stomping his foot on the ground, he pulled her to him, forcing her body to run into his elbow.
"He feels different some how.." (Clarissa)
"Maybe to you Clarissa, but this is the Jorge I remember. His eyes are different though." (Lisa)
"How do you know him cousin?" (Clarissa)
"How? He's practically our fourth sibling." (Lisa)
When June was knocked out cold, Blob released his purple gas. Jorge launched a kick so powerful, it felt like compressed air was released , dispersing the smoke. Blob body crashed into the wall.
"Its over." (Jorge)
Jorge looked down at the girl and apologized. He picked up the other man as well and jumped towards the ceiling back to the main floor. Lisa followed suit with Clarissa.
-----------------------------------------
"I don't know." (Selena)
"You said Liz's magic and now you can't explain why?" (Julie)
Everyone from the bottom floor made their way out using the hole Jorge made. No one noticed except for Lisa's friends.
"Hey they're back!" (Emma)
"Jorge!" (Chris)
"I knew you could do it Jorge, but your eyes?" (Selena)
So that's what you did.. Changing the course of time. Again.
"Selena, What is going on now?" (Julie)
"I'll explain everything later.." (Selena)
Selena smiled and called out to Flare and Heyna.
"Your friend is dead and now your two other buddies have been taken down. Your move!" (Selena)
Jorge didn't look away from them. They knew they had no chance, so they surrendered.
After everyone was tied up, the cities police force arrived. Lisa ordered them to stay behind until a signal was given. Everyone else gathered by Jorge who couldn't calm his awakened ability. Julie helped Chris up, using her shoulders to stand.
"You need to focus. You may not be a vampire but you still have the symptoms of one who has just awakened." (Selena)
"I can't Selena, this power isn't turning off. My body feels like it's burning.." (Jorge)
"I'll just knock him out." (Julie)
"Julie!" (Selena)
"Big sis is right, you'll do no such thing." (Lisa)
Lisa finally showed up and interrupted their planning.
"Jorge, Its time to chill the F out. Everyone is safe. You're done." (Lisa)
"... Lisa? When did you.." (Jorge)
He finally fainted, falling onto Lisa's arms. The event came to a close. Jorge and Chris were brought back to their home thanks to Lisa and her friends while the old man was gone. June and her group were arrested and got sent back to the facility. Julie dragged Selena and Clarissa back home before anyone could notice their queen was out and about.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The next night, at the building where Jorge and Chris first met Ivan. The sounds of ice were being formed as they destroyed everything in its path. Inside was Chris, filled with anger but not one else was there.
"Ivan, where are you!?"
Only one person replied.
"They're gone. this place has been deserted for quite a while now. Didn't your friend Alex tell you?"
"Ofcourse you'd know about this place. My queen."
"Save your energy lets go."
"Where?'
"Coffee. We have a ton of things to talk about."
As the two walked out, they discussed how Ivan has been changing his locations constantly and never choosing the same place twice.
"How's Jorge?"
"He hasn't woken up since the fight last night but his fever is getting better."
"That's good."
"What do you know about Jorge."
"Well its a long story, I wish Liz was here, she would be able to explain it better."
"Well then, how about me?" (?)
They both looked up as they saw a boy slowly floating down.
"Allister?"
"Hey kid, it's been a while!"
Allister appearance made Selena happy.
"You're a kid... again."
"Yea, its a long story. Hey what are you doing with Denise's kid?"
"You know my mom?"
"Wait, Allister. I'm still trying to comprehend how this is possible."
"Well I'll explain everything if you want. I heard coffee, does this place also have hot chocolate and pancakes?"
"Yes, with whip cream."
"Perfect, lets go. Because my Story is about to be a long one."
