Hey, I tried to message you this, but my phone is dumb and sorry if I spammed you! But I love your work, and I don't want to take any credit, but here's my fanfiction on your work of how Vega and Elosie met.
"Hey, Vega! There's where you've been hiding!" I feel my right ear flick at the annoying voice. We're literally five feet apart he doesn't need to shout.
He giggles to himself and I feel his body drape over my shoulder and I harshly elbow him at the contact.
He whimpers briefly and then chuckles as he covers the brusing area with a hand. His drink in the other sloshes a little as he staggers back.
"Piss off, Duke. I already came to this annoying function, because I gave your mom my word that I'd watch out for you at school," I growl as I look over toward the pit.
The natural collection of jagged rocks in a circle created a perfect pit for, you guessed it, parties hosted by drunk dumb teens in the middle of the black forest. The area keeps the bonfire large but safe from spreading to the forest and its great to keep the crowd together, but apart enough so loners like me can observe safley at the tree Iine.
The various teens shout and laugh as the light causes some eyes to reflect in the dark. The myriad of smells clog up my nose. Doesn't anyone teach them there's a thing as too much perfume?
He pouts and the flames reflect in is dark glasses. Tomorrow his baggy grey sweatshirt will be gone and the purple and black Nevermore uniforms will decorate the halls of the newest supernatural generation.
"You know you didn't have to come. My mom wouldn't have known," he rubs his hand on his neck.
"An Addams never breaks a promise," I snarl as I watch the untouched contents of my cup swirl. That, and mother would totally kill me.
I know mom would be upset too and her disappointed puppy eyes are one of the few things that I would make me rather be trampled on by an angry mob.
Now. That's a party.
Duke shakes his head,"You're not having any fun, are you?" He runs a hand through his wavy hair causing it to be even more of a mess.
No. None at all. I'd rather be sniffing around school for hidden things that weren’t on the freshmen tour. Like the hidden society that mother claimed was so easily spotted it was a joke.
"The seniors throw this Homecoming party for new and returning students. It's a tradition to go. Even as irritating as it is." I reply.
"Vega," he sighs. He takes my cup and throws it over his shoulder.
"Your littering." I state as I walk around him and pick up the plastic. I hate it when people defile mother earth.
"Listen, leave. I'm safe here. Just because my mom is your godmother doesn't mean you need to stick around a place that's making you miserable."
I can feel my brow twitch, "I am not. Plus this isn't nearly as fun as you say it is."
He pushes down his glasses and his green eyes reflect the orange flames, "Don't make me use my siren voice."
I stiffen and growl, "Don't you dare. Yoko would kick your ass if you did that to me."
He smirks and puts them back on, "Maybe. But seriously, I'll be fine! Go run around in the woods and dig up a grave or something!"
"YO!" We all turn our heads as a large gorgon holds out a whimpering girl, "Looks like we got a normie crashing the party!"
A few whistles and snarls of irritation echo off of the rocks. The boy throws her down in front of the flames and Duke winces as the girl face plants in the dirt. The crowd approaches her with manic glee.
Someone turns off the music and the cracks of the fire are the only sound.
I know the smell of bloodlust. I usually salivate at the feel of it but this time? It's not worth it to someone whose innocent.
The gorgon jumps down to her feet and crouches. His hat rattles and his eyes grow to slits. "Why are you here, human?"
She whimpers, "S-someone was-s following me and I heard the music-c."
He laughs, "What and you expect me to believe that you'd cross into Nevermore territory willingly?"
"My phone died and I got lost!" She tries to defend. She crab crawls away. Her wide blue eyes scan the area for any allies, "I was at a party and-d,"
A few watch on with smirks, other with disinterested and some in awkward uncomfortableness. The town is still split but not as bad as it should've been.
He stands up and laughs, "You should’ve stayed with your kind."
"Vega." Duke hisses. But before he can grab my hand I leap the impressive distance down.
The gorgon pauses as I calmly stroll forward.
"Mind if I take her off of your hands?" I put my hands into my pockets, my nails have already grown into claws and I smirk putting my enlarged canines on display. I can't help but feel a little excited.
I've never got to fight a gorgon yet.
"And, who are you, Barbie?" I blow one of my neon pink strands out of my face. And I see Duke push his way into the front of the crowd.
My smirk turns into a malic grin and I take my hands out and crack my knuckles together, "Do you wanna find out?
"Don't." Another large male steps next to him and the way his eyes reflect, werewolf.
The gorgon looks to his companion confused. The wolf eyes me and I maintain eye contact.
I'm not sure who the new player is but I'll be more than happy to fight him as well.
The only werewolves I've interacted with were family. And no one wants to fight the Alpha's daughter.
"She's an Addams," the boy says. I cringe as the loud whisper overtakes the area.
"An Addams?"
"Oh, great. Another one."
"Like as in Wednesday Addams?"
"I thought her mom was human?"
The gorgon huffs,"Take the human. You'll do way worse than we ever could."
I make sure to keep eyes on them as I slowly approach the girl, "Are you okay?"
She nods and I wait as she gets up and she grimaces as she puts weight on her right leg.
Duke steps forward and lifts his cup, "Come on Nevermore! I thought this was a party!?" Soon the crowd joins in and I nod my head in appreciation. The music blasts back on. And soon everyone returns as dumb teens instead of scary monsters.
He shoots me a thumbs up and I look to the girl as she looks to the wall of rocks with a frown.
"Hey, can I pick you up?"
She looks over with wide eyes. "Huh?" Dirt covers her face and clothes. There's a few scrapes that are bleeding.
I clear my throat and point to her leg that's she's gingerly standing on. She blushes, "Oh. Yeah, sure."
I crouch and look over my shoulder and try to give a friendly smile, "Get on!"
She gives me a confused look before strattling my hips and I stand with her piggy backing.
"Alright I'm going to jump."
She tightens her grip, "What!?"
I bend me knees and she goes, "Wai--!!!"
I stumble as we land on top of the Boulder. I laugh trying to calm her down, "Wow! You sure are light, aren't yah?" I can feel and hear her heart pounding out of her skull.
She gives me a quizzed smile, "You're weird."
"Thanks!"
I look into the woods as try to see which way is town. Unfortunately, we're upwind and no lights or car noises are coming through the thick compass of trees.
"I came from that way. I think." She points in a direction and I decide to take it.
The walk through the woods is quiet and surprisingly, I find myself starting to relax. I like the solidarity that the woods provides. I walk for some time as my gently swaying makes the girl relax and she puts her chin on my shoulder.
"Is it true?" The girl whispers. I flick my ear as I look out of the corner of my eye she looks away from my pointed ear.
"That you're an Addams?" I feel my arms stiffen. I never cared for the purgatory that comes with my family. I'm quiet proud and don't care for others opinions. Still it's annoying.
She quickly covers, "Not that I care! It's just that I heard from my Uncle Lucas of your mom and how she made a statue explode."
I roll my eyes. That was Thing actually, but not that she needs to know.
"I'm Eloise. Eloise Johnson" She says. I carefully go over a log. She twitchesat my silence and goes, "You know this is when someone would tell me their name in return."
"Vega." I state. I pause as we come out to a field. There's wild flowers everywhere and I feel a smile grace my lips.
It's so pretty. I look as I count the flowers, black eyed Susan's, different asters, and numerous lillys.
I stop and close my eyes as the sweet nectar and fresh air enters my nostrils. The girl behind me seems to be enjoying it too.
I look up at the clear sky and stars. I smile when I see the stars that copy my name. Then, I remember that the town is south of school. So, I go in the opposite of Polaris.
"There was something there. You know?" Eloise whispers so quietly I even have to strain my superhearing.
"It was supposed to be fun. I made myself go out l, cause I promised my mom I'd get into trouble to stop her worrying. I'm also a loner at my normie school. I've never had many friends but everyone was going. So," she shrugged,"Then, the cops came and everyone panicked. I just ran. But when I stopped, I had no idea where I was, and then my phone died. I used the flashlight setting to try to find my way back. I wandered around in the woods for a long time and then this loud crack happened." Her hand tightens on my shirt, "I know you shouldn't run from a predator but I was just...something told me to just run."
"You're human. Not your fault." I try to comfort. She snorts with a watery chuckle.
I stumble out of a thick pair of bushes and end up on asphalt of a road. I turn and see the generic Welcome sign to the town.
I lower down and she takes the sign and slides off of my back.
"You think you can go the rest of the way?" I ask. I look to her leg and she brushes some of her red hair out of her face.
"I suppose I can. Thank you."
I nod and she says, "It was nice meeting you, Vega Addams!"
....
" Can Vega Addams report to the principals office?"
I pick my head up as my cheeks are stuffed of breakfast sausage. I glare at the box and ignore of the student body stares.
Ugh. I quickly inhale my food and then walk to the school's office.
The secretary politely opens the door for me and I pause as principal Barcaly turns around with Sheirf Walker standing next to her. His eyes red and bags underneath showing little sleep.
"Morning Miss Addams," Principal Barclay drawls, "You make take a seat."
"I'm in trouble." I sit and cross my legs waiting for the adults to tell me what I supposedly did.
Mr. Walkers rubs his five o'clock shadow, "Depending."
I raise a brow. Principal Barclay sit and folds her hands on her desk.
"Did you escort a Miss Eloise Johnson home the other night?"
I tilt my head to the side, "Yes, she was lost and I took her to the town sign."
"It that all?" Sheirf asks. I smell the coffee and desperation waving off of him. I try my best to not scrunch my nose.
"Why?" I can feel my heart pick up.
Principal Barclay and Sheirf glance at each other. After a moment.
"Eloise was found dead this morning."
The author shared this to me in my dms too but I figured you guys might wanna read it too :)
