Shadowsblade: Some things should not be...Taken
When our small group ported back to Australia, the producers asked us to
land at the main studio this time instead of the location in New Zealand.
The main reason for the change, was because most of the filming was done
for the most part on all exterior shooting that I was part of and now we
Drow would spend almost all of the coming weeks on a soundstages inside
the studio lot.
On that first day back, I had to layout what I wanted in my trailer once
again to a new PA and that was boring as heck to get her up to speed. She
had none of the notes from the last one! I was really mad about the
simple stuff, like the carpet being made of natural fibers instead of the
nylon we found in the townhome and I really needed that natural fiber
carpet so it does not cause a rash on my feet.
Since the local studio ran this housing complex, they were not aware of
my special needs. Where as the location trailer I used, was fully
outfitted by our film company and they understood my needs! So the local
studio sent over a large team to change out the carpet while we all had a
meal and a short break enjoying the city.
But after that mess was all done, our small group was shown a very nice
townhouse that was within a very short walking distance of the studios
and I loved that small detail. Walking to work via the small shopping
zone, plus small mall would make the day or night seem much more calm to
me.
During the first one of those short walks during my first week back at
work, I had found at least five good places to eat and one great place
that had all natural clothing made by the locals around here. That last
store made my year, the lady that owned it was very nice to us Drow and
she understood what I really needed in clothing, plus she kept it very
quiet that I was a Sidhe!
Most of my working time was spent on set, either day or night. The
director kept up a very fast schedule to make sure he had enough of us
twins on film to cut into the movie's plot and some extra shots were
added during the weeks we filmed in New Zealand.
At night, most of my time was spent doing the hard EFX work that was
required to complete our project, including close ups and most of the
fighting with the stunt players. The days were left for acting directly
with the other actors, or EFX that had them appearing in the shot with us
and lastly the fighting scenes we all showed in.
Tuesday July 31, 3:25 PM
Our large townhome,
near Gold Coast studios Australia
We had been let off set early today! They had to reset the stage for
another shot and that meant the whole stage was being cleared out, to
make room for a new set to take it's place in a few days time. But my
night schedule was still the same, with two days off...day time only?
Twelve hours or so more or less per day of us Drow getting to see the
city around us, you have to take time off when you can get it!...Even
half days!
I had just stepped out of the shower, when the twin me combing her hair
out by the sink sniffed the air. The scent of a strange human filled her
nose, all coming from the bedroom behind the bath's door. But that was
normal during the weekdays, as we had staffers that would come in and
clean the home for us, plus other small chores.
Both of the Pixies, were busy having too much fun bathing in one of the
bathrooms sinks to really notice what I had just smelled. Our group did
not worry much here at the townhouse because of the tight security around
this complex that housed us and a few other important actors.
"If you are cleaning up my room, I will be done in about twenty minutes
and then we are leaving?" I questioned the smell and the sounds of a
heart beating faster in the next room.
We stood silently waiting for some kind of reply? But all my ears picked
up was my dresser drawers being slid open, "Ahh the clothes on the
bed...are what we will be wearing, so please leave them alone and collect
the washing from the bin or clean the rest of the house?" I asked again.
Now I heard someone moving towards my door, the sent was much stronger
now that the steam from my showering that filled bathroom was now gone.
The new scent was defiantly human and male, that I was sure of now! With
a man being so close to my bath, plus both of us not exactly dressed
right now! I sent the Pixies out to see who was there with a thought
~"Violet...go see who that is!"~
~"Done sister!"~ she mentally told me from the sink, where she was
bathing with her sister.
Both Violet and Lilac, shot out of the sink and their armor came out of
nowhere to cover them both up just as magic invisibility made them vanish
from sight. We Drow could still see them, but as they flew towards the
door...it creaked open a crack and a hand came into the room holding a
small camera. The room filled with a dozen very quick nearly blinding
flashes as the camera took pictures.
The Pixies were on him instantly for that, they both knew what a camera
was and what it could mean to us all. Pictures taken out of context, or
used as bribery material by someone!
Two crazed Pixies flew all over the man dressed in a cleaning uniform,
both started sticking his body hard with spears and he started to scream
in pain...then ran for the door out. We Drow were running very close
right behind him and not exactly dressed for the occasion!
He stumbled over the corner of the bed for a second, but stood up quickly
and since he had a huge lead on both of us twins he made it to the
bedroom door and slammed it in our face. Too bad that did not work!
Rehanna ported into the living room right in front of him as he spun from
shutting the door and slammed a hand heel hard into his face, breaking
his nose in a nasty crunch of bone. Now broken, it started to bleed a
river of blood as he cupped both hands over it.
"You did not have to do that you bloody bitch!" he tried to shout out
over the growing blood flow and his now funny sounding voice.
Rehanna grabbed his throat in one hand, then slammed to the wall while
Rohanna opened the bedroom door, "Sure I did human, I have to tenderize
the meat before I feed it to something hungry!"
As Rehanna held him still, Rohanna yelled into his face, "Well...here we
are both naked, just like you wanted. So try to do something before you
get killed today!"
"Get off me you two basket case sheilas!" he gasped out.
"Ohh vith nindol, udos elgg ukta" Rehanna hissed out in Drow at the room,
as she held his neck in a vice like grip.
(Ohh fuck this, we kill him!)
"Ori'gato's lar Bill ust, vel'uss zhaun ka jaluss zhaun uk zhah ghil?"
Rohanna the ever so slightly calmer Drow said back to her twin and the
ancient Drow spirit that seemed to make a home within that body.
(Let's call Bill first, who knows if anyone knows he is here?)
"Well...be quick about it, I am not holding onto him all day!" Rehanna
warned.
"Then tie the bastard up and lay him on the tile floor, so the blood is
easy to clean up if we have to get rid of him!" Rohanna said back in a
hiss of english so the man knew where he now stood...on deaths very door!
"Jora, ula!" Rehanna barked back then leaned over to grab a lamp sitting
on the table nearest her. Next she slammed the man to the floor, by
rolling him over her back, then yanked the power cord from both the lamp
in her hand and the wall. Now she quickly tied the man up, his hands
frist and used a new lamp cord on both of his legs from his ankles to his
knees! (Rats, fine!)
Rohanna walked back into their bedroom, grabbed some fresh clothes to
wear and tossed half of them the twins way who was still standing naked
in the living room. Rehanna hissed "Thanks!" as the clothes flew allover
her. Afterward, Rohanna picked up her phone while busily dressing herself
and called Bill.
Across the small town
Bill's phone rang and buzzed in his pocket. He pulled it out, then looked
at who was calling, "Ohh it's Ro dear, she must be ready to go out and
eat a bit or maybe she needs the car?" he told Jineen next to him.
"But honey, she said that she would leave us alone for the afternoon and
eat a late dinner before hitting the studios again?" she questioned the
reason for the call.
When Bill answered the phone, he did not even get a word in before the
yelling of a teen Drow filled the air, "Bill a guy snuck into the
house...took pictures of us naked in the shower...he tried to run...we
got him all tied up...what to do with him!" was rattled off at him in a
nonstop stream of rage.
"A man is in the house and he took pictures!" Bill shouted back, Jineen
standing by him leaned closer to hear the call too!
"Yes, he got in while we were in the shower, then took pictures of us! I
want to chop him up and drop him off at the reef offshore...please get
back here...before I lose it and..." the Drow cried trying hard to fight
her growing anger down and NOT do the wrong thing today!
When the tied up human heard that cry, he struggled with is bindings and
tried very hard to break free as he started to yell out, "Help get me out
of here, before these Bloody cunt crazy sheilas kill me!" Rehanna kicked
him in the ribs to quiet him.
Rehanna then quickly stuffed a lose sock of her's into his mouth that was
conveniently laying on the living room floor and when he would not quiet
down..."Shut it human, or die!" she hissed down at him. The man laying
there instantly believed the threat and stopped his thrashing about.
Bill heard the shouting and knew he had to try to help and rather calmly
said to Rohanna, "We will be right there, don't do anything till we get
there?"
Bill got a squeaked "Yes." from the Drow as she hung up
Jineen started to run off for the car even before Bill did, "That man
must have seen the car was gone, knocked on the door while Ro was in the
shower and entered when she did not answer...thinking no one was there.
But why the pictures?" she asked Bill just as they both arrived at the
small rental car and started to get in.
"He is a perv, photog or nut...that wanted photos of the girls and we
will have to find out which one!" he said as the car started, then both
rear tires squealed as he spun them to smoke.
A few minutes later, Bill drove the car into the townhome's drive and
skidded to a stop. His tire smoke gained the full attention of the
complex's gate guard and the guard started to make some quick calls.
Jineen was out of the car instantly, she opened the homes front door and
found both Drow pacing the room like crazed, penned in animals. Both
muttered under their breath in Drow, that was not a good sign at all from
the twins...the glowing red eyes from both teens told Jineen it was
worse...much worse!
Jineen hugged the closest one, "Honey we are here now and we can fix
this!" she comforted the girls.
Bill was in the door next, he saw the man laying on the floor and hissed
at the man as he closed the door then locked it, "So this is the
asshole!"
"Yes Bill, he did this!" one twin that Bill was now calling Rohanna more
often, as she shoved a camera at him. Over the last months the twin Drows
seemed to take on separate personalities most of the time, Bill could
tell one from the other by style of dress or bearing. Rohanna was more
human like and took thing calmly, while Rehanna was defiantly the DROW
part of the twins with just enough human in the mix to keep her from
being overly viscous.
Bill's anger rose as he flipped through the pictures on the camera's
memory of the girls in the bath and after those pictures was dozens of
the girls outside on the street beyond the house. Some even showed the
groups, coming and goings from the house during the day...this man was
'casing' the house for when they were not home for sometime!
Bill hunkered himself down lower to stare the man in the face, as Bill
flicked through the images again for the man, "Well what was this all
for!" he demanded an answer as he took the gag out of the man's mouth.
"Help!" he yelled out and Bill instantly clamped a strong hand over his
mouth to silence him again.
"Bill I placed a silence spell on the house, you could shoot him with a
shotgun all day and no one outside would even hear a peep!" one Drow
grinned over at Bill and that one was defiantly Rehanna of course!
"Good, I know your spells are 100% perfect!" that is when Bill removed
his hand again from the man's mouth, "Yell all you want to...Drow magic
keeps all the sound inside this house...no one will hear you outside at
all!"
"Hey bloke, I was just here to get some pics for the papers and I was not
pinching your things?"
"Pinching?" Bill questioned.
"Stealing...mate!...I was not stealing!" the man barked an explanation.
"And the pictures, explain that part...NOW!" Bill growled down at him.
"I saw the opportunity to get ripper pics of them and took it!" he
smiled.
Bill saw that smile and slugged him in the side, "That was a very bad
idea...so you took pics of underage girls and hoped to have them all
published for money?"
"Yep mate, they would have blurred out the naughty bits!"
Jineen lost it, she was now that mother bear protecting her two new cubs
and this woman had raised 'only she knew' how many children over the long
decades! Jineen leapt to the man's side and quickly kicked him in the
side four times, till Bill stopped her.
Jineen stared down at the man her rage, as Bill held her back from
harming him even more "That was just the start!" she screamed.
Rohanna laughed at the blows, then Rehanna smiled her appraisal of the
kicks that broke at least one rib..."Jineen when you kick him, go
straight on at his side with your foot and lift the toe a bit to put more
foot pad into the blows."
"Ohh thanks!" she said as she slipped from Bills arms and kicked the
prone man five more times, "Ohh that is much better...thanks!"
"Enough of that, we have to decide what to do with him?" Bill questioned
the group.
"Kill him," Rehanna answered quickly, too quickly.
"I take him somewhere, chop him up like I said and drop him near the reef
for the sharks to eat!" Rohanna smiled next, her plan for the mans
demise.
Bill shook his head, since he started to notice the twins growing
different, Rohanna was the calm one most of the time and Rehanna was just
pure Drow...just tamed a little bit!
"Well that is defiantly out! So what we are going to do, is get the
guards in here and turn him over to the cops!" Bill shouted at the room.
"Ohh no, do not turn me over to a coppa, we can make a deal bloke!" the
man asked as he squirmed on the floor.
"If we are doing that, I want him stripped incase he is hiding
something...like more pics of us!" Rohanna demanded and pulled out a
dagger to cut the mans clothes off.
"Just wait, let me go through his pockets first and then we can get nasty
if I find something more?" Bill told the teens.
As Bill slowly went through each of the mans pockets in turn, that is
when Jineen spotted a duffle bag on the chair next to her, "Who's bag is
this?" she questioned after never having seen the bag before just now.
"Not ours?" the twins said in stereo.
Bill shook his head at the stereo Drow and sighed as he pulled out the
mans pockets.
"Then it must be his!" Jineen barked and the man nodded back, "well lets
see what all is in here shall we?" she said next and zipped the bag open,
as Rehanna joined by her side to see.
Bill pulled out the last pocket on the man's jeans and a necklace with a
gold medallion fell out, "Well what is this?" he questioned the man, as
she picked it up.
Rohanna standing over them both saw it next and growled out, "That was
from SARA you thief!" and she kicked at him.
Bill grabbed the raging Drow to slow her down, Jineen saw what was coming
next and wrapped her arms around the twin next to her. Only the Drows
wish not to harm their friends stopped them both from acting out.
Bill yelled at the Drow in his arms, "Stop it...stop it now! We don't
need that right now...do we?"
"But that was from Sara! Before she was taken..."
"Sara at school?" Bill made sure.
"Yes, from her and her dad...it's her...mark." Rohanna admitted.
"Fuck!...This is from Gothmog?" he had to ask next, as Bill studied the
small disk of golden metal and the strange symbols that covered it.
"Yes."
"Would he know it was taken from you honey?" Jineen asked next, knowing
this could get worse.
"Right when this THIEF left the building and maybe he even knows right
now?" the teen Drow admitted again.
"That is not good!" Bill barked out.
Bill leaned back down to the prone man, "Why did you take this?" he
asked, as his hand swung it in the man's face.
"It looked special and might fetch a few on the net because she is famous
to some fans out there?" the man tried not to smile as he spoke.
"Do you have any idea what this is or who gave it to her?" Bill hissed
out.
"Nope...I don't bloke?"
Bill sighed out slowly now, "This was a gift from a...."
Jineen shushed him, "BILL!...No, that is a bad idea telling him who gave
that necklace to Ro as a gift?"
"Yes Jineen you are right?" then he looked down at the man again, "Lets
just say this..." Bill dangled the necklace in the man's face, "you were
about to tug on superman's cape and steal from a true friend of his. That
would have made him very mad and him killing you would have been him,
being kind to you!" Bill warned.
Bill then handed the necklace back to one of the Drows, "Better to wear
that from now on, while we are here in Aussieland..." he laughed.
"Okay..." the twin said as she placed the gift necklace back around her
neck, "But what to do with this guy?"
Jineen barked back at all three from her searching the mans duffle bag,
"Ohh I would just do what Rohanna said...kill the guy!" and she slowly
pulled out of the bag the reason for her anger. Several video and sound
remote listening devices fell into her lap.
Bill stands up like a shot, "Let me see one of those honey!"
"Hey mate...I did not plant any of those here yet!" the prone man said
with a cracked friendly smile.
"LIAR!" Rohanna shouted out as she kicked his side again and several ribs
crunched from the savage blow.
"So he lied about that!?" Bill told the twin and she nodded back.
"I did not lie mate, get this basket case sheila off me!" he moaned in
pain.
"What you don't know 'mate'!" Bill grinned down at the man, "She can tell
when a person lies One hundred percent of the time, that power has never
failed her on a human." Bill boasted.
"Ohh get out, mate and untie me!"
"No!" Bill said as he glanced Rohanna's way, "But Ro?...Look for any of
the bugs please?"
"Got it!" she chirped and waved her hand in a pattern to create a spell
that Bill had seen done once before in his office up at ARC. After the
spell did it's work, both twins searched over the townhome and within ten
minutes both had made a nice pile of bugs that they had found.
"All done!" Rohanna said to Bill, "He left us five of each kind, three of
both audio and video were in MY ROOM! I even found one in yours too, why
I don't get...maybe he was being thorough?"
"Now we can call the complexes guards and have them take him over to the
cops!" Bill warned.
Jineen nodded to her husband as she walked to the front door and just
outside the front porch area she found that three guards were already
standing there waiting for someone to come out and their radios chattered
the more guards were on the way.
"Hello gents, we need your assistance with a burglar?" Jineen asked the
small group.
"Yep! I told ya something was wrong for that American to come ripping
home so fast." one man said as the group stepped past the now open porch
gate.
After Jineen lead the men inside the home, she waved her hand at the
prone body on the floor, "This one snuck past all of you and took pics of
a very naked set of teens taking a shower...AFTER he bugged the house AND
he stole a very personal item too!" she shouted at them.
"Ohhh mate you are in so much trouble!" One guard said to the prone man,
then he asked Bill "But Mister Varney we will need the camera he used for
this for our evidence of the crimes?"
"I will show all of the pictures he took to a cop, a detective...once and
show them only once then it gets all erased forever" Bill insisted.
"Fine by me, but it's up to the coppas Sir?" the lead guard said back as
he took the photog's shoulder in his hands to pull him up to his feet.
"Take your finger out of your arse and untie me!" the thief shouted at
the guard.
"Okay mate, but I will replace them with handcuffs and they stay on till
the police get here mate!" the guard barked back and went about his work
at changing out the electrical cords for shinny handcuffs.
Bill stopped the men carrying away the bound man, "Before they get here,
I want him searched down to his skin for anything else that he took from
us!"
Rehanna flipped a long dagger from nothing, "I will gladly cut off his
clothes for ya!" she grinned and took a half step towards the man.
"Keep the ankle-biter off me mate!"
"Ankle-biter?" Jineen had to ask the meaning of that remark.
"He means kid Miss and he is right...we can't have a lady do that to
him?" the lead guard said.
"Well then, we will leave the room and you guys can do it!" Jineen said
and spun both Drow towards their bedroom.
Bill smiled to the man as he snapped the blade on his pocket knife open,
"Hold very still or I WILL cut you bad!" he warned with a big grin!
Bill worked his way from the mans top to his bottom and found during his
search a small hard drive that could receive a signal from the camera the
man used. Bill plugged the hard drive into the mans laptop and when the
drive opened he found copies of all the pics the camera was holding on
it!
Bill angrily shook the tiny hard drive in the man's face, "So what was
this for?"
"Sometimes mate, they get my camera when I have to make a run for it and
that is my back up!"
Bill dropped the small black case to the floor and stepped on it, "Well
that should fix that!" he smiled as the small box crunched under his
boot.
"Hey that thing cost me more than a thousand!" the man cried out.
"Well it was that or yet another felony for transmitting pics of a
minor?" One guard laughed at the bound man.
The next part took over an hour, but the local police showed up and after
they started to take their photos of everything. They called the
Australian Federal Police after finding out just who this was about and
what the criminal did!
Bill was pulled aside by one federal officer and they agreed on one
thing, he would get to see the pics once, no copies made. Then Bill would
personally burn every item by himself. Bill was very sure that the long
call from ARC the lead detective had taken, that is what made him agree
to Bill's terms so quickly!
Just after they all left with the man all wrapped in a yellow plastic
sheet that most cops kept in their car, Bill set out to finish this mess
off for the day. He found a heavy metal bucket next to the dumpster, the
barrowed some oil and gasoline from the neighbors that had motorbike that
they rode on weekends.
He placed that bucket on the porch, then with one of Rohanna's daggers he
punched holes into the hard drives, laptop, the camera and all the spy
gear. Next he filled the bucket with some light oil plus some of the gas
and lit it. Lastly he dropped each item in the flames one at a time.
When he was done, water filled the bucket to cool it off and he placed
the whole thing in the scrap bin of the complex.
"Well that is taken care of now, after I shower up to get that stink off
me. We all can go eat!" he grinned to us three waiting in the kitchen for
him to finish up.
"You both go, I am leaving now to get something to eat and maybe walk
some to get my mind off of this?" Rohanna and Rehanna offered in stereo
as both walked out of the house, while putting on a baseball caps and
shouldering backpacks.
"Fine honey, just call us if you need something?" Jineen said to the
closing door.
"Why did you let her go?" Bill asked his wife.
"She needed some time alone, this guy surely caused her some mental
issues and she has to deal with it all. Then she seems calm and not
wanting to go skin the man right now at least, so why bother her?"
"For now, she is calm. But I will ask her not to even consider that
option later on tonight." Bill said while stripping to take his shower.
Just outside the house
Both twins pulled out their illusion necklaces and placed them around
their necks as they both walked towards the complex's gates. The Drows
changed into blonde girls when the necklaces bound spells did their work.
At the gate, one guard leaned out of his shack's window towards the two
teens walking slowly by, "Sorry ladies, that will not happen again. The
boss doubled the guard and makes sure everyone runs a ID check no matter
what before admitting anyone."
"A little late!" I growled back, yet both of us kept right on walking.
Past the complexes gates the small business district laid out before us,
I had to think about what to do first and a rumble from my stomach made
my first stop known...us Drow need to eat before moving on. Since my
hunger seemed to be a large one at this time, we aimed for eating at the
nice pizza shop we found a few weeks back.
A short walk later, we entered the small mom and pop shop, the older gent
smiled to us from behind his counter, "So how hungry are the twins
today?"
"Real hungry!" Rohanna said.
"And pissed off!" Rehanna added making sure the old wooden door closed
fully behind her.
"Well dear, lets fix that right up!" the older man smiled and started to
toss dough to make a pizza with.
Later both teens were trying hard to relax nestled in the large wooden
lounge chairs set out on the wide sidewalk, those large chairs made what
this place a great place to eat, relax and watch the people walk on the
wide paths of the shopping area around the eatery. The shop's door swung
open as the twins watched the shoppers stroll by and both owners of the
pizzeria came out to serve the hot meal to the twins.
An older lady refilled two large glasses on the table with more orange
soda, while she dropped a large tray of appetizers next to them and the
older gent added two large pizzas to the table made for four diners.
The owner stood back up from his job of adding the pizzas to the table
with a smile, "There you go, that should fix you both up and should I go
ask Jones next door to get some sundaes ready for dessert?"
"Ohh ya!" Rohanna sighed as she took a bite from a large chesses pizza
slice she just took from the table.
"Yes please." Rehanna added in while pulling some warm nachos free of
their gooey cheese and toppings.
"I bet you want that small size, all chocolate sundae you ask for
sometimes too?" the older lady had to ask.
"Yes, add that too...we love those." Rohanna added in for the hiding
Pixies, that shouted mentally their shared glee at having the hot treat.
After the large meal was cleaned from the table, three sundaes arrived
from right next door and the soda was refilled again. When the two large
dishes of ice cream were clean and the Pixies had snuck their treat when
passerby's could not spot them. Both twins rose to pay the check and to
leave a large tip for the owners. Service like this needed rewards, the
older couple made the twins feel welcome here.
With that hunger left behind them, the twins slowly strolled down the
streets of the business area and window shopped, when they spotted a
small walkway that they had passed by many times because of the candy
shop next to it, they walked down this walkway for a change and it led
out to a street that they had never seen before.
Half way down the new block, a large open store filled that one side of
the street and it's buzzing, beep sounds of the arcade in it lured the
twins right inside. Rohanna put a hundred aussy dollar note into a change
machine to get tokens for the place and both split up to play some of the
games.
It hit Rohanna very funny that she seemed to like the older games that
she had missed over the decades and the newer ones held no real
attraction for her. Rehanna was spending her time at multi-ball pinball
machine, something she had never seen before and the addition of four
more balls to the playing field added that extra challenge she needed!
Both drifted away from those machines when they became boring and found
the Skee-ball machines, "I remember these!" Rohanna added as she dropped
tokens into one.
The teens started to play the game and very quickly after finding each
balls 'sweet-spot' they all landed in the top scoring ring, one after
another! When the long string of prize tickets covered the floor, one of
the attendants came over to see what was going on and after watching both
twins play the game for awhile, he had to interrupt their game.
"Ahh girls, are you mutants or something?" the thin boy asked.
"Nope!" Both said in stereo and did not lie...Drows are normal for nature
in their minds.
"Ohh okay, but at this rate you might as well choose a prize or two or a
dozen. Because we don't really have high ticket items here?" he
apologized.
"If you say so?" Rohanna said as she ripped the long stream of prize
tickets off the game and both teens followed the boy back to towards his
counter where the prizes were kept.
Rehanna spotted a nice skull cell phone case and pointed it out, "Hey
that one might fit?" she asked and took out a bunny phone.
The arcade attendant tried to put the phone in the case, but found it was
too thin and the screen was a little too big? "Where did you get this
one, I have never seen a bunny logo on a phone?" he asked very puzzled at
the phone and its very advanced looks.
"Custom, we test them for a friend and give her our input back." Rohanna
said and tried to give the boy as little information on the phone as she
could.
"Sounds cool, but if you like skull stuff I have this case of neat stuff
over here?" he pointed out the last glass display case with more 'punk'
styled things in it to the twins.
An hour later, both twins walked into the studio gates, one was wearing a
new black skull punisher logo-ed hat and it was all cotton. Then add both
backpacks were now adorned in various skull trinkets as well. Inside one
back pack was a new set of cotton pillows for the Pixies to lay out on,
that was the hardest find of the cheap items in the arcades prize
display!
Tuesday August 7, 1:25 PM
Our large townhome,
near Gold Coast studios Australia
Both twins are busy packing most of their things for the trip home,
because this is the last few days of shooting the film here in Australia
for now and they might do pick-up shots in the coming months or re-shoots
for some of the EFX work.
When Rohanna finishes her packing, she walks down stairs and spots Bill
and Jineen talking again as silently as they can, "What are they up too,
I have to wonder?" she thinks silently, "they have been acting very
strangely for the last two days?"
Rohanna interrupts them by chirping out before she lands on the bottom
step with a pounce, "Hey you two, none of that here! We have to get going
you two love birds..."
"Yep you caught us again...Ro?" Bill tries to smile and so does Jineen.
When I spot that both of them are lying to me right now, I let it go.
"They have to keep some personal secrets from me, but this is starting to
bug me?" I think as I go over to the kitchen to grab a small snack.
"But Ro, that shop called and that Duster or dusters you ordered came in
last night and we might as well go pick them up with most of today being
off?" Jineen asked me as she grabbed a soda from the fridge, that I still
held open while I looked for what snack looked good right now.
"We could do that, that store had those nice wool sweaters that I liked
too. So I will grab a few of those at the same time." I grinned back to
her.
Rehanna hit the last stair and added in her wants, "We need to go to that
one place that sells motorbike parts for a few things too!"
Bill shook his head at the Drows, "Both of you seem to be separating even
faster now to me...Each one has her own viewpoint on life?"
"Bill we are still the same person?" Stereo Drow asked.
"Yes in a way I am sure? But Jineen and I have been talking it over for
weeks, since you both left Whateley. We both noticed that one of you acts
more human at times and seems to be more 'teen' like?" Bill does air
quotes, for a short giggle from Jineen, "and the other seems to lean
towards all the Drow decisions for the most part. I am sure you have
noticed it by now too?"
"Well we...us are still one. Just..." I tried to finish, but that small
lie stopped me cold, "We are separating a lot faster than I though we
would?" the one Bill had named over the weeks Rohanna gave.
"But Bill, we are still linked in every thought, just we talk that one
thought out to each other...one says human things and the other all the
Drow stuff?" Rehanna added next.
"Well lets just see what happens and it happens! But for now, get your
stuff...your shoes on and lets get the shopping over with. But I have to
ask, why the duster or rain coats and the darn wool sweaters! Both of you
never get cold or wet?"
"We like the look" both said in stereo
Then Rohanna added in, "And wearing a rain coat at times will help us
blend in, instead of being strangely dry all the time?"
"Now that makes more sense!" Bill laughed.
As the group loaded up into the small car the studio provided to go
shopping across town.
The photog that broke into the groups townhome and tried to steal
Rohanna's necklace, PLUS get photos of her nude. He was being lead out of
his cell, then down the main aisle of the block to the exit.
"What gives, where are we going?" he asked the guard.
"Not we...just you. Someone posted your bail and your attorney of record
is here to pick you up mate!" the guard snarled at the bug of a man he
was shoving towards the locked gate.
"RIPPER! So Paterson my barrister is here?" he yelled in joy.
"Nope, a new one was paid for...all just for you!" the guard said as he
shoved him through the now open gate.
The guard on the other side barked out at seeing him, "Who is letting
this child porn bloke out!"
"He found a friend somehow and they paid a Barrister to get him
out...then his bail mate!" the first guard growled in anger.
"Someone paid that Five hundred K! For me?" The photog asked very
surprised that someone he knew...anyone he knew had that kind of money to
spend.
"Yes and hired a thou per hour Barrister for ya too!"
"Ohh well then, take your finger out of your arse and get me out of
here!" he shouted.
The second guard hit the smaller man in the face, then smiled "Whoops you
fell again mate...see how that happens when you bark at me!"
A few minutes later, a lawyer in a dark suit with three assistants was
talking to his new client in a room leading to the prison exit of the
main courts building, "So is this new, very fresh face bruising a result
of the guards hitting you sir?"
"Ohh ya they just hit me right now before you showed up!"
"Well we will bring that out in court next week!" the lawyer huffed out
in feigned anger.
"YEA that's right, we will sue!" the photog yelled out a threat.
"That is for later. But now sir, lets get you home and during the ride
you can meet your new friend that just loves your work! He is waiting to
meet you outside and wants to thank you personally for what you have
done so far."
The photog follows the lawyer out of the building, along with the three
legal assistants close behind them both. Just outside, waiting in the red
zone is four vehicles. One immaculately well maintained Mercedes limo, a
huge older 600 model and a very rare model it was...last made in the
80's. This limo was mostly seen in public being used by heads of state or
dictators! Just in front and behind it were the other three, all black
stretch SUV's that were hardly ever seen in Australia.
"Who is this new friend of mine...he is loaded!" the photog whistled at
the extreme show of wealth before him.
"He is a very important Prince of his kind sir." the lawyer informed him.
"Prince, of where, what nation?" he had to ask for more!
"Well his nation is secret, but he might tell you all about it inside the
car sir?" the lawyer said as he opened the black tinted door of the
smooth black painted limo.
The photog leaned into the held open door and saw a large man in an
impeccable clean white suit sitting in the back with a lady sexually
snuggling up next to him, that lady was so beautiful it took a man's
breath away instantly! She was wrapped up in a red silk dress that was
just 'painted' on, one that barely covered her at all and she was wrapped
around the mans side in such a sexual way, it made the photog's lust grow
for her!
"Well get in the seat sir and we are off?" the lawyer smiled.
"Yep I can get used to this!" the photog said as he slid into the
expensive leather seat across from the man and his woman.
The lawyer closed the door, then went to his own SUV to be with his
staff.
"Welcome...I followed your work closely so far, the breaking into the
Drow teens home was a good try?" the man in white said slowly, as he
puffed on a sweet smelling cigar.
"The name is Johnny Sir and yours? So I know who to thank for all of this
kindness!"
"Gothmog and you might not be 'thanking' me in minute!" the man in white
laughed at him, a laugh that was sounding so sinister it made Johnny
shake in fear and the sound of the door locking made that fear grow even
more deeper right now.
"Ahh I don't know what this is all about mate, but just let me out and
call it even?" Johnny tried to bargain for his life he was certain.
"Not going to happen, you tried to take that necklace of her's and
succeeded in taking pictures of nude under age twin girls...That was a
mistake...boy." the mans voice boomed at Johnny.
"Gothmog...was it?" he trembled in fear as the lady licked her lips at
him like she was sizing Johnny up like a fine steak!
"That is my name...human." the man in white smiled back at him a very
dark way and the 'human' part of his statement sent a cold shiver over
Johnny's body right now. "Was this guy NOT A HUMAN!" he thought in
horror!
"What are you going to do to me or with me?" Johnny asked in squeaky tone
that was ever growing from his fright.
"I am not going to do anything with you just yet, maybe in a few hundred
years I will get back to you? But for now...darling...would be so kind as
to show this man the error of his ways for me...during the rest of this
century?"
"Yes my lord, I do your bidding." she sang out in a tone of voice that
made Johnny's skin crawl and yet he wanted to so 'bed' this girl very
badly right now!
"Ahh I am sorry...sir?" he gulped.
"Too late...I gave that necklace to her as a gift to show I cared for
her...those twins...and I owe them so very much for what they have done
for my family!" Gothmog howled at Johnny in anger.
The lady leaned towards him, her scent made Johnny lean towards her. As
she leaned closer and closer, her mouth opened and opened...wider and
wider still! Johnny was mesmerized by her, infatuated by her even when he
saw row after row of sharp blade like teeth in her mouth, dozens of
rows...he leaned closer to her still, to be with her!
Johnny SCREAMED!
As the limo pulled away from the curb, the thick well made doors of the
Mercedes held that frightening scream inside and all that was heard
outside the metal door was a whisper on the winds of Johnny's Final
sounds.
Back in the shopping section of the city laying nearby the studios.
Both Drow were busy admiring how good the long dusters looked in their
tall bodies, "Look at this, covers up all that I want and looks good to
me!"
"A little plain, considering what you usually choose? No skulls or pink
death kitties on this one?" Bill mused at both, while looking at the
coat's large pockets for himself.
"Well now that you mention it, I wonder if I can get skull patches this
big?" One smiled evilly at him and Bill instantly regretted the suggetion
as Jineen laughed at his pain.
Thursday August 9, 6:25 PM
Gold Coast studios Australia
Most the cast and crew of the film was at this party for the end of major
shooting. From here on, the first unit and the EFX second unit would be
doing some more work. But most of that shooting was very dangerous work
that only stunt players did. There might be some pick-up shoots or re-
shoots in the future. But this was the last day or so for the main cast
to be together.
Us Drow mingled into the crowd and tried to keep ourselves split to let
everyone see us and meet with all the friends we have made during the
long filming. Rohanna sticks with Art and his wife for the most part, as
they mingle about. Rehanna leans towards the crew, because she loves the
jobs they do and likes to see how things work!
"So what are you two going to get into this next week?" Peter Martin the
director of the movie asked as he came walking up to the pack of close
friends.
"Us, we are going to Paris!" Art's wife Linda laughed, even though she
knew Peter was really asking Rohanna.
"Not you, I know Art is going over there. Because I paid for the airfare
and I know his credit cards are on fire right now waiting for you to hit
the streets!" Peter laughed with her.
"Well Ro tell the man?" Linda laughed as she nudged the teen next to her.
"Peter, school starts in a few weeks and who knows what trouble I might
get into till then?" the teen grinned in a most evil way.
"Ohh no...none of that! I know darn well why you are smiling, that darn
Isle of Mann TT classic and amateur race is in a few weeks...and there is
no way you should go to that!" Art said more than mad, but with a hint of
protectiveness in his voice. Just like he was chewing out one of his own
kids.
"Isle of mann..." Peter asked very confused at the name.
"Did I hear Isle of Mann!" Westly Seagal said more than happy just as he
walked up with a beautiful girl wrapped around his arm...one that no one
had seen before today!
"Yes West, what is that or that place or the race?" Peter asked the
newcomer.
"Well Pete, its a race on a small island laying between England and
Ireland. Thirty seven miles of twisting mountain roads in both a small
town and countryside all run on motorbikes at the bleeding edge of
control...going over two hundred miles an hour on the track is normal!"
"West, please don't leave out the parts where almost all the racing done
in the small village, is right next to trees and stone walls. That very
dangerous part that has killed dozens of good riders." Art huffed out the
short facts about the dangerous race.
"I am sure if Rohanna says she can do it...she can? She has proved that
she can do many things on this film...some...that others would never try?
Besides Art, the lady is a mutant or Sidhe and she will heal from
anything that track can toss at her!"
"That is what worries me, she might get hurt bad!" Art insisted.
"Art, I have done more dangerous things than racing on a track since this
happened to me?" Rohanna said while waving a hand over her body, "and I
will do even more dangerous things in the future I am sure, so me having
my idea of fun? That is me living life on the edge, just like always!"
"Wait till Bill hears you have those kind of plans for the rest of your
summer off!" Linda warned of her intentions of telling Bill.
Across the wide soundstage building, Rehanna spotted both Bill and Jineen
having a very heated discussion. One that had both of them very upset.
Rehanna could not make out what was said over the huge din of both the
people there and the large band playing.
When they stopped to hugout the whole issue, Rehanna made her way over to
both of them, "What was that all about, I can see both of you are very
upset and for the last three days...you have been leaving us 'kids' out
of it! SO GIVE RIGHT NOW!"
"This is personal Rohanna.." Bill started.
"I am Rehanna, not Rohanna...and anything that has you both this upset is
my issue too. I...we need both of you...and need you around! So if this
life or death bad...we Drow need to know right now damn it!" Rehanna
demanded.
"It's personal Rehanna." Bill said, short and to the point.
"We will talk about this tomorrow in your house...back home, if it's that
private." Rehanna stated and then left very quickly...too quickly!
The large party went on for several more hours, both twins were
introduced to producers that might want to use them in the future
depending on how this film is received by the public. But Peter laughed
all of that off, "They love this picture, I am getting free advertising
and that visitor that Rohanna and Rehanna had this week proves they will
risk anything for pictures of them!"
Both twins said in stereo and very angry at the small fact, "That kind of
free press is something I don't need more of...especially nude pics of us
around!"
"Well he did not get away and Bill here," Peter nudged the man just
walking up with his new wife, "he made sure that those were destroyed on
the spot...But did any of you hear?"
"Hear what Peter?" Jineen asked quickly.
"That Johnny photographer was baled out for five hundred thou and
disappeared the same day! He was to call in each and every day! But
strangely missed all of his call in's after he was walked out by a rather
new and EXPINSIVE attorney, some say he was met by a string of limos
outside the jail too?"
"Who would want him dead and pay that much to get at him?" Westly
wondered out loud.
Bill instantly glared at both teens and through clinched teeth asked
almost silently, "Did you do that?"
Both Drow shook their heads to Bill's question instantly and were
offended at the same time. If they wanted him dead, why pay for an
attorney and bail to get at him? Just port in at night, skin the man in
his cell or port off with him and do worse, but more fun things to him!
"Well in any case...ladies he is gone and even if he comes back? The
locals want him real bad, so badly they will hunt him down! I insisted
that they do, or I film any sequels to this movie in England or America!"
Peter laughed at his threat and the power it held over the local
government.
"Sequels?" Rohanna had to ask, "I thought this one was long enough!"
"No, I was thinking to do the whole book series and this is only part one
of eight!" he laughed again.
"Oy-vey! That is going to hurt my class time a lot!" she rolled her eyes
at the facts.
"But the pay is great!" Westly add in the large fact that it was.
"I will have to think about it in any case?" Rehanna said quickly.
Friday August 10, 6:45 AM
Our large townhome,
near Gold Coast studios Australia
"Yarp! We are all packed and ready to go!" Bill joked, but Rohanna was
having none of it right now. She had caught both of them talking again
just last night and she was very mad at both of them right now.
"So I trust them both with my life, I have done so many times already and
here they go having their first issue where I can or might help them? AND
they don't trust me!" Rohanna thought to herself as she got the last of
her things ready to travel.
"I am ready..." Rehanna said short and curt!
"So if we are ready to go then?" Rohanna said shouldering her only bag
for the trip, all the others were inside her personal storage already.
"Ready!" both Bill and Jineen said, then picked up their last bag.
Rohanna stood in-between both of them and Rehanna stood next to Bill.
Both Drows touched a shoulder, then each other and the four ported away
when Rohanna asked "Ready!"
Thursday, August 9, 2007 4:45:00 PM
Dunwich, New Hampshire
Bill and Jineen's Townhouse
All four ported into the center of the living room in a pop, Rohanna
checked her surroundings without even moving an inch. Her senses reached
out in a second, while her eyes and ears searched for trouble, lessons
drilled into her over centuries. One must never assume all is safe or
where you ported to or wanted to port to is where you end up at!
Rehanna sighed when all her checks came up safe, "Well that trip is over
and we are home for now!"
Then both Drow silently ran upstairs to drop off their bags and pull the
remaining ones from their personal storage. The next plan was refilling
all the dressers, closet and other places she had with the twins clothing
needs for the next few weeks.
Bill followed Jineen up to the main bedroom and found exactly what they
expected in the room. All their bags set in even rows on the floor, dived
by who owned what and who had their things where. Rohanna and Rehanna had
set off hours earlier and last night to do this short chore...but came
back very mad when they caught the couple talking in secret once again!
"Think she is still mad at us honey?" Jineen asked not sure of all the
small clues the teens had to their mindset.
"Ohh ya, you can just make out the red tint ring around each eye. Both of
them are fuming at a very slow burn!" Bill said as he opened his bags.
"Should we tell them?"
"Tell them and have them go off...." Bill started, but never finished.
The door swung open and both teens flew into the room, "And go off and do
what?"
"Hey get out!" Bill shouted at both invading teens.
"You have a secret and that is a big one that is bugging you. SO out with
it now!" Rehanna demanded from the open door and Rohanna was leaning up
against the wall the of the short hallway to the main bedroom next to
her.
"That is our business both of you!" he shouted once more.
"Well if you can't tell us...." Rehanna started.
"...Then how can we trust you both?" Rohanna finished with a slow sigh.
"It's not that honey?" Jineen tried to say.
"But it is...." Rehanna said.
"...you don't trust us in this one thing and after all this time?"
Rohanna finished.
"This is our issue, we will deal with it ourselves!" Bill said more than
angry that both teens were not listening to his orders.
"Well then...no more trust between us at all. It's good that our bags are
not unpacked and we will going over to Whateley to stay from now on."
Rehanna started again
"Yes we will and Bill please call Mr. Reilly for us?
So you can tell him that you are not taking care of us anymore and it is
done...."
Rohanna finished with a sad sigh.
"This is not one of your silly...Drow...black or white choices Rohanna!"
Bill barked.
"Well then you tell me the gray of me not caring or my caring about you?
I see none, it's all or nothing with me Bill. You know that by now?" she
asked for his explanation on the matter and waited at the door with her
back already turned toward the Drow's room and the waiting bags.
Jineen could instantly see that Rohanna was not going to ever budge an
inch in her choice, they as a couple trusted her with this or she left
for good and she could see her reasoning behind it. This Drow did not
have time in her life for 'maybes' and trusting Bill or her was betting
Rohanna's' life for a very long time.
"Bill tell her, or I will!" Jineen suddenly snapped at her husband.
"Honey?" Bill asked wondering why his wife was not standing by his
decision, then realize his Jineen had lived a very long life and knew for
more than he ever could.
"Tell her...now!" Jineen warned once more and the fiery redhead of this
Irish lass was showing now.
"Fine...honey?" Bill gave in and started talking.
He sat both teens on the large bed, then started pacing around the room
as he spoke. Alex, Bill's very much younger brother had got himself into
trouble, very deep trouble and ended up owing money to the leader of gang
he was in.
Then add one of his very close biddies...his cousin, one he had been
friends with since they were toddlers. He had opened his big mouth
bragging that " BIG brother Bill" worked up at ARC and might be able to
get 'those way cool' weapons that hurt mutants and blow up tanks!
Bill's dad Paul, was trying to pay the debt off from the leader, but the
leader added a insane level of interest per-day that made that impossible
and now the only way out was Bill getting what the crazy man wanted from
ARC or Alex dead, plus the added threat hanging over the family for
years.
Rohanna laid back onto the bed and sighed as she covered her face with
both hands, "What does he want Bill?"
"This nut wants top of the line military grade weapons, the ones you
don't want on the streets and can get...or will get traced back when the
army goes to find this gang leader!"
"Let me guess, those plasma rifles and power armor that my friends at
Whateley make in their sleep?" Rehanna laughed from the beds corner.
"Yep, he wants the Ex 40 armor at work...and a few other 'toys'?" Bill
sighed.
"That is nuts, I am sure one of them weighs like three tons and barely
fits inside a large van? What do they think you are going to do...sneak
it out in a bag lunch?" Rohanna sassed.
"That is the problem, this moron wants are totally unrealistic?"
"I'll say, that armor is not on the black market I bet! And if it was, it
would cost tens of millions? I could buy it, but finding it for sale is
the real issue!" Rehanna said as she stood up and walked to the rooms
small wet bar to get some water for all of them.
"So any ideas?" Jineen asked as Rehanna handed out water bottles for all
of them.
"I could do a deal with him..." Rohanna started.
"Ohh no none of that selling what you do to cover this!" Bill warned.
Jineen asked being a little naive on the matter, "Sell what Bill?"
"Sell her skills at killing...she would murder for him to get Alex back!"
"It's an idea, he gets what he wants out of the deal. Death, destruction
and whatever? I limit the damage to what I want to do and stop it when I
want to within the agreement." Rohanna shrugged like the idea was that
easy to her.
"NO fucking NO, I will not let you do that to yourself! That would be
like you going back to your old ways and you said you did not want to do
that anymore?"
"I said I did not want to be forced by royals, this is for Alex and you
Bill...in my mind that is a small trade?" Rohanna said just before she
gulped some of the cold water down to quench her suddenly dry throat..
"No we will get what info we need out of my nephew Bruce Varney, the
moron kid that kind of started all of this mess and see from there." Bill
said flatly.
"So we are calling the cops or FBI then?" Jineen asked, even though she
knew they could not. Calling them would get Alex killed in a day at best!
"I can try looking for him?" Rohanna asked.
"That might work, but you know nothing about the Tampa area or the gangs
dealing around the city Ro?" Bill added next with a sigh of defeat.
"Then we get Bruce to show me the lay of the land or else?" Rehanna added
in the now trademark Drow tone of voice that made you go cold when you
heard it.
"Rehanna, he's family!" Bill shouted.
"Not yours, just related?" Rehanna grinned the small fact that in her
mind this kid has limited protection at best.
"But he is still a kid?" Jineen said shocked at what Rehanna implied.
"Act like an adult during your teen years...you can get punished like
one? Even your human justice system crosses that thin line all the time?"
"Man that only seeing in black and white? That really shows how screwed
up the system in the US has gotten over the last hundred years!" Bill
shook his head at the logical facts she had just pointed out.
"Where do we start then Rohanna?" Jineen asked for her man who was still
thinking as he paced across the bedroom.
"Lets bring in a very trusted expert on finding people in to this mess,
shall we?" As Jineen nodded, Rohanna pulled out her phone and slid a
finger across it to turn it on, then paused for a second while the phone
read my heart beat. That strange heart beat of mine is the only thing
that will unlock the phone for use.
The phone's display rises out of the screen into a nice holo-display of
it's main features. I tap the space where 'internet' is floating and the
world net is now alive on the phone. I say softly to it, "The cat's in
the cradle...come here pussy cat, I know you can hear me?"
Jineen looks at me like I am nuts, but Bill knows who I am talking to.
A anime cats head comes onto the holo-display and searches around the
room for one quick pass, "So by the ping of the phone you are at home,
Jineen and Bill are there? So what's up girl!" the phone purrs to me.
"I have a favor to ask of you and Blue?"
"Ohh posh, favors? You know darn well we don't do those with you, Drow
have a free tab with this cat!"
"We need to find Bill's brother, some gang thug kidnapped him and wants
something that Bill might be able to get up at ARC?" I tell her.
"Well plug in the phone to a power line and lets get that info for you!
We have family to find?" the cat face grins to me.
While I hunt for the power cord of the phone in my pack, Bill tells
Cyberkitty the whole back story on our search, the who's, the what's and
the where's. I plug the phone into the wall socket fully knowing why I am
doing this, a Bunny phone maybe cutting edge tech and it has a HUGE
battery life. But what Paige or Cyberkitty is going to do will cost power
and then she will use the power coming from the wall as a extra
connection to the internet...Yes you can go on the net via the wall plug!
That is normal tech from over ten years ago, but no one really marketed
it well and it died off!
After Bill is done, the Holo-image purrs to him, "Got it all big guy and
I will take a second!"
"While you are doing that, any word?" Rohanna sadly asked the image that
suddenly turned from a anime cat to a fierce one of a panther as it
shouted back, "NO and you know darn well I would call you in a second or
less if I found him!" it hissed back at her.
"Sorry, had to ask?" Rehanna said slowly back.
"Sorry I hissed at you, but I am still looking and others are too?" the
now calmer and cuter cat said.
Bill and Jineen knew who the two were talking about, Sara's kidnapper
that has been missing for months. That kid was being hunted by the church
of Kellith, ARC, some staff at Whateley and the kids that knew her! How
no one found him yet was interesting to say the least?
"Well Ro this gang leader is hiding the right way, he uses all couriers
to communicate to his 'clubs' and his dealer network. That makes it real
had to track him, the local cops and FBI have been tracking him. But
never got near him so far? I will work on it from my end and keep you in
the loop!" the cat face smiled then vanished with a cartoony pop.
"Well that is done, now we need to talk to this nephew Bruce of yours and
see what he knows?" Rohanna told Bill her plans.
"We will call him right now." Bill says but never gets his phone out of
his pocket, Rohanna taps his shoulder as she says, "we go and see him
right now!" and all three vanish.
Almost 1500 miles away to the south.
Bill suddenly finds himself standing in his parents backyard in Tampa
Florida. He spins about in confusion and then rips into the Drows
standing next to him, "Why port to here...why now?"
"Got to start somewhere, some time and right here and now is good, plus
seeing Bruce in person gets a message across that I wish to make much
FASTER!" she glares at Bill.
"Shit!" Bill shouts as both Drow walk away from him, then over to the
back door of the nice home and knock. "WAIT Ro, you will scare dad
shitless and he will blast you!" he warns.
Sure enough after the door opens, a rifle barrel comes out at her face,
and she smiles her trademark fang filled grin to Bill's dad, "Hi Mr.
Varney, we have to talk and any brownies ready?" she jests with the
frightened man.
As the light mounted under the barrel of the rifle washes over the
closest Drow, Paul Varney squints at the teens, "Rohanna, what are you
doing here at this time of night and before calling to come over?"
"DAD! We are here about Alex?" Bill says as he walks up behind the twins.
"You told her about this mess?" his dad says more than angry with his
eldest son right now.
"Well who can hide things like this from a Drow that we live with?" he
explains, "Besides who else has the skills to get Alex back and in one
piece?" he sighs the logical fact.
Paul waves us twins into his house as he opens the door for us, "Well get
on in here...Bill next time you call ...SON!" he demanded, but Bill said
nothing to correct his father for now.
After all three of us were in the kitchen, Paul put his rifle up inside a
secret hidden box mounted inside the wood panel lined wall, "Nice spot
Sir, even I would have had a hard time finding that one!" I admitted that
it blended in and the hidden door used a magnet as a lock, thus hiding
the stored rifle even more!
"I have a few of those all over the house, most are steel lined and fire
restraint and the big one is in the basement under the frame of the
house. No one will ever move that one, I had it built, welded in place
and it weighs three tons!"
"What do you have in that beast?" I had to ask.
"Dad collected guns, so did grandpa and we were left his collection after
he died" Bill added taking a seat at the small breakfast table his father
sat at.
Paul yelled out after we all sat, "JANET, we have visitors?" he warned
her and she came into the room very quickly.
"Ohhh...who?" she said just before entering the door, then gasped, "Bill
honey why are you here?" Janet lied the small fact...she knew why, but
did not want to say it in front of us Drow!
"Hi mom, might as well drop the act. Rohanna knows, besides you can't lie

Rehanna said after draining a cool glass of juice.
