The New and Improved Twisted and Completely Out There Story

"Greg, you're being ridiculous," Alexx sighed as she sat down on her bed.

"No I'm not. Just...stay here. Don't leave this room no matter what!" Alexx rolled her eyes at him.

"Are you sure...I mean-"

"I'm sure, just stay here!" Greg had to keep Peter from Alexx and the baby at all costs, but couldn't tell her about it. If she knew, she'd spazz out bad. She just needed to stay in the room.

"GAH!!!!!!!!" A blood curdling scream came from behidn the door Greg had just closed.

Alexx rushed out of the door. Greg was standing over Sara.

"What is going on!?" cried Alexx.

"Nothing, she was having a nightmare."

"Oh fine..." Alexx was so angry with Greg.

"Be mad all you want but you need to protect your baby. Get some sleep." Greg watched Alexx return to her room. She was not happy about it but she did it.

Greg walked down stairs to find Hannah passed out on a barstool. Girld Night Out

Sara was deep asleep, but wasn't soo deep that she didn't feel when Greg came and laid down next to her. She snuggled against him, if she hadn't been so damn drunk she wouldn't have been able to sleep tonight, even the sober level made it hard for her now, but she did, and she didn't dream.

When she woke in the next morning she didn't have a hangover, the glory of being a half vampire. She moved her hand to find Gregs arm, which wasn't there. Damnit he broke his promise. If he wasn't in the kitchen he would be in so much trouble. She cuckled, she already felt like they were married.

She walked into the kitchen and smelled eggs and bacon, "mmmmm eggs." She said streching.

"Hey Sara, hows your head?" Alexx asked.

"Fine how about yours?" She said mockingly.

"You don't have a hangover?"

"No." Greg turned and looked at her.

"Sara what did you take this morning?"

"Nothing," she said her tone almost giddy. But she had every right to be giddy though, she was getting married today. Greg gripped her by the shoulders and sat her down on a stool.

He lifted her eyelids and looked in her mouth, "Greg what the hell are you doing?"

"I'm... never mind."

"I didn't take anything this morning. I don't get hangovers." She kissed him lightly, "thank you for worrying though."

Alexx watched Sara, who seemed to be floating on air all day. She was too happy, it was kinda scary. And Greg wouldn't leave any of them alone. When he wasn't watching his soon-to-be wife, he was fussing over Alexx.

"are you ok? How's the baby?"

"We are fine! You've been asking me the same two questions all day!"

"I just wanna check." His voice was sincere but Alexx wasn't in the greatest mood; she hadn't slept hardly at all the night before.

"Well, you've checked at least ten times in teh past thirty minutes; now go!" Greg looked at her, and for a moment seh saw the worry in his eyes. "Greg, what's going on?"

"Nothing, why do you ask?"

"Greg, tell me the truth."

"Well..."

"I..Had a dream."

"Woopdy doo," said Alexx, spinning her arm in the air.

"This is serious, it was about you. Peter came to the Bar. He took you. He wants to power your baby has. I dont know what it is but he wants it so badly.

"I watched him go after your family."

Alexx stared at Greg. Her hormones didn't help the situation. it was all she could do not to just bawl.

"He will not have my child," Alexx said strongly as she held her stomach. The lfe inside her gave a tiny kick.

Sara looked at the clock and swallowed, "we've got three hours!" She ran to the closet and pulled out the three boxes, she handed Greg his tux box and took the other two herself. "I promised my mom we'd have it at her house so she could be there."

"Okay, where does she live?"

"Town house a couple blocks away with my dad." They all walked downstairs, out of the bar and down the street, Greg and Sara walking in front. "I've always wondered what does it feel like to have a hangover?"

"Living hell."

"How do you avoid one?"

"Stay drunk."

"Is that what happened to you?" He kissed the top of her head.

"No, I was drunk to forget. And while we're in the neighbor hood what do you suppose we do about the aging thing?"

"I'm not sure."

Greg looked around. Trying to enjoy talking to his friends but keeping a look out for Peter. They had already passed the point he should have appeared. The weapon was stills safe in limbo.

Where are you Pete? I know your there... Sara's parents house was just in view. It was such a short walk.

Do you know I'm here, Greg? Or do you think you know? Peter's voice rang through Greg's mind. He stopped dead in his tracks. Eyes wide with Terror. He was there. Somewhere near them.

"Greg? Somethings wrong."

"No nothing's wrong."

"Yes there is, I see it in your eyes."

"Let's just get to your parents house. We dont want to keep them waiting." Sara nodded. The worry in her eyes was obvious but she walked on.

"Sara!" cried her mother as she hugged her, "I'm so happy to see you. Her father gave Greg a firm handshake before giving him a hug as well.

Sara ran upstairs with her mother and Alexx to get ready, leaving Greg with her father. There was a suddne burst of light and Odin appeared in the living room.

Sara's father didn't even flinch.

"Odin!" cried Greg. he then turned to Sara's father, "I take it Sara's told you all about our lives then?"

"Of course. My daughter told us when you saved her and she became a half vampire. You better take good care of her you hear."

"I was sent by the others to wed you and Sara," said Odin, "It seemed fitting. Might as well have us do it instead of one of those odd little people called..Priests? is that it?"

Greg laughed and said, "Yeah."

"Greg, something doesnt seem right," Alexx muttered, helping him tie his tie.

"Everythings fine...shouldn't you be helping Sara?"

"No, she's having a mother daughter moment; I wouldn't want to ruin it," Alexx made a fake gagging noise. "Now tell me what's wrong."

"Peters here. Really close, but i don't know where."

"Oh shit. What do we do?"

"Go on with the wedding I guess; there's not much more we can do. We'll go on with the wedding, and take him when eh gets here."

"Hey, where's hannah?"

Oh Sara," her mother fawned over her as she did her hair, "are you happy?"

"I'm happier than I've ever been before." Her mom gave her a hug from behind.

"So tell me about where you're going to live."

"We haven't really talked about it, we'll probably crash on Alexx's couch until we find a place."

"What about the honeymoon?"

"I don't think there's gonna be one..." she said shyly as she did her mascara.

"Is it because of that boy Peter?"

"Yes, he's going to screw things up today I just know it! I hope this mascara is water proof."

"It is."

"Good cuz I'm gonna need it."

"Tears of joy never make your mascara run."

Greg looked at himself in the mirror. He never wore fancy clothes but for once he looked nice. A little old but nice. Odin came up behind him.

"You look dashing, but one more thing," Odin waved his hand in front of Greg's face. When it had passed Greg looked his age again. No wrinkles or cracks. A nicely tanned young face.

"But..."Greg started to say.

"A wedding gift from the elders. It'll last for 24 hours. Long enough for all your pictures and stuff. Come on. It's time for you to get married to the one you love."

Greg followed Odin out into the living room.

Alexx stood next to where Sara would be standing, looking around her worriedly. Greg had sworn that nothign too horrible woudl happen, but Alexx didn't believe it. Then it happened.

Sara was walking down the isle; she looked so beautiful.

Everything fell silent. The piano player had stopped, the birds weren't chirping; there wasn't even any wind. Alexx looked around nervously, waiting for Peter to pop out of some place unexpected.

"RUN!!!!" Greg cried, pulling Alexx to the ground as the pew next to where they were just standing exploded. Sara was a safe distance away, but Greg wasted no time gtting to her side.

"Whats happening?!" Sara shouted over the noise.

"Peter's here."

"Damnit!" She screamed, "can't he leave us alone for two minutes?"

"I guess not, lets get out of here."

"Not without my parents!"

Greg grabbed Sara's father as she grabbed her mother. Odin didn't flinch as the house was being torn down around them. The look in his eyes spoke a thousand words.

"Dont do it!" Greg called, "Well take care of him." Odin nodded angrly before vanishing. Alexx helped them get out into the street.

The house was caught in some kind of torrent. With a blindning flash everything was sucked inward.

All that stood was a few pieces of wood and stone. In the center stood Peter.

"Oh pity, I had hoped you wouldn't escape. Oh well, it's more fun this way." He grinned a dark sadistic grin before lunging at them.
