Remembered

Yes! Remembered is remembered!

Shaun

Free from his toad in the hole, Shaun made his way around the shopping centre, searching for that ice cream place and those people sitting in its window.

He walked past one with a familiar name, but it didn't have anyone siting at the window. just as he walked past the door, someone ran out and barreled right into him. Surprised, he glanced at an upset Ella before she moved past him, holding tightly to Alex's hand, who looked like he was going to explode.

Shaun took a tiny step away from him.

The others filed out, looking confused, angry, or just irritated.

"I didn't even get to order," grumbled someone.

"Whoa," Shaun muttered, regretting that he'd come. "What's going on?"

"Ella cut her hand?" said Maggie, unsure.

"Where?"

With a frustrated growl, Ella turned towards them. "Will you guys come on?!" She guestured madly. "Let's get out of here!"

Shaun grabbed her hand, red with blood. He didn't know why he did it, he just did. His hand closed over the cut and then he felt a strange lightness rush through him, like he had gotten up too quickly.

"What are you doing?" Alex shoved him roughly, focing him backwards.

Shaun looked up at him, a little frightened. "I - I didn't mean-"

"Will you leave my sister alone?"

Ella frowned at her hand, then looked up at Shaun, confusion in her eyes. Shaun felt like kicking himself. He'd only been with these people for an hour at the most and already he'd made an idiot of himself. He just didn't know what had come over him.

"Alex..." Ella whispered, holding out her hand to him.

He frowned and glanced down at her. "What?"

"My hand..." she showed him her hand and looked back at Shaun. Shaun felt an overwhelming urge to run at the look she gave him. "It's fine."

Shaun saw her hand. It was unmarked. A diziness ran through him.

"Shaun - you healed my hand."


**Thinking he doesn't know 'bout his power.

Eloise

"Shaun," she said excitedly. "You're different. Just like us!"

Shaun was looking confused and out of place. "I-I really don't know what is going on."

Alex no longer looked angry but more like confused and startled.

Ella looked back at the mall. "We need to talk about this later. For now, we'd better get the hell out of here. Shaun will you please follow us back to my house?" Ella asked.

Alex pursed his lips at that and Ella did her best to ignore him. She didn't listen for Shuan's response but headed towards the car.

----

After what was possibly the longest car ride in history, they finally made it back. Alex sighed a little and turned to Ella.

"Now can you tell me everything that happened. Then we'll talk about this Shaun situation."

"Well, it's not that hard to figure out really?" A cold voice laughed. Ella turned to see the waitor with the scars lounging on their couch. She backed into Alex and narrowed her eyes.

"Don't you hurt anyone," she growled. "Because if you think that's funny, I'll do double the harm on you."

**Anyone care to continue this? ^_^ Should be interesting. They'll want Alex's blood of course, but they don't know if it's Ella or Alex who has the power (: **

*Nicole, why was it that they only needed Alex blood? I can't remember. Oh, and Zane wants some action*

Caroline Zane

"Hey! That's tha waiter. Was he the one that...?" Laurel trailed off. Caroline jumped forward.

"What are you doing here?" Caroline asked, her voice ringing on the line of angst. No one, but no one would mess with her friends.

The waiter jumped up, "I'm looking for some blood. A specific blood." Caroline's face got paler. He wanted to kill one of her friends. "Now, who is the one that controls energy?" No one moved, but my thoughts drifted off to Alex. Maggie stared worried at me. "Now, now, thee is a coward here that would rather let the friends die. I can work with that." He took another step closer.

With his words Alex's thoughts were determined to walk forwards. I pushed back a him, at thought of fire, heat. As soon as that a flame appeared in my hand, and I threw it at the man. Caught unprepared the man stumbled back, as some of his clothes caught flame.

**Well, in the last storybook, they needed Mikael and Jason's blood. Since their is not a character with Jason's power it's down to just Alex because his power is just like Mikael's. They need it to sort of power the 'mirror' that will take them to the other world (:**

Ella

"You are but only children to me!" He roared. "I could wipe out everysingle one of you with but a single thought!"

Ella shivered. She knew this man was dangerous and Caroline had only pissed him off. Even together they couldn't hurt this man.

"Now it is one of you two," he said pointing to Ella ad Alex. "You are the son and daughter of April and Mikael. Which of you can manipulate the energy?"

"Me," Ella squeaked out. "I can." She was lying, of course and warned Alex to shut up.

The jerked her by the arm towards him. She saw a flash of silver and a a spurt of dark red. Ella bit her lip to keep from crying out. He had slashed her wrist and was collecting her blood in a bowl.

"No!" Alex yelled. "No!" He ran foward and Ella felt build up of energy.

"She dosen't control it! I do!" Alex yelled. Caroline had thrown another fire ball at the man but he blocked it easily.

"So the truth comes out," he laughed, shoving Ella away and grabbing Alex.

"Alex, you moron!" She screamed. "You're such an idiot! Why did you tell him!" She grabbed her wrist and stood up, helped by a very angry Caroline.

Caroline Zane

Caroline bit her lower lip to hold back her tears. Scared to death, she helped Ella get up, putting an arm around her shoulders. Shaun reached them quickly and cured her arm once more. Zane felt her anger build up, mixed with sadness and a huge amount of rage. How dare he?

Caroline flipped when she saw the man cut Alex's wrist. She closed her eyes, and the ground shook. Once. Twice. No one paid attention, even the man was too embraced in dripping Alex's blood. There was a crack, and the floor opened. Roots of all kind shoot up and bid the man's every limb. Zane opened her eyes again, to see that the dining room table had gain life. She glanced quickly at Laurel, and managed a faint smile.

Alex

I felt the blade slash down across my wrist and watched as a little crimson tide washed onto the floor. With each drop that fell, the raw energy contained with in sent shivers through the house.
Suddenly the table began to move and the man was wrapped in thick vines. As i watched the vines began to wither and die.
"You just don't get it," laughed the man. "Its too late." He laughed maniacally. I could feel a strange unnatural wind, brimming with power that was most defiinitely not of this world. Just the small breeze rolling through the house was enough to make me feel POWERFUL. Like the world was a tiny bug in my all powerful hand.

**Remember, guys, these kids don't have much control over their powers, being that they barely know about them. Plus this guy, for the time being, is wayyy stronger than them. (:**

Ella

The man shook his head, grabbing Mikael's blood and vanished out of thin air. The room was oddly silent for a few moments.

"Will someone tell me what is going on?" Shaun asked, freaked.

Ella took a deep breath and walked towards him. "I don't even know," she told him. "I really don't."

"But-" he started, wide eyed. "He's talking about...about powers. Like energy manipulation. And I...did I heal you?"

Ella nodded. "Look, I would help you out if I could, but I'm kind of freaking out right now. That guy just took. My. Brother's. Blood," Ella choked out, trying not to cry.

She looked back at Alex. He was still bleeding. "Can you heal him? Please?" She asked.

"I don't even know what the hell is going on here," Shaun started. "I don't even know if I CAN heal someone, much less do it on a whim."

"Please," she begged, biting her lip. "His wrist looks awful...if you can't heal him, he's going to need stitches. Please," she begged again.

**Okay, which characters are in this? Cause I'm confused as to who's posting and who's not... And this is gonna be a bit rushed.. sorry**

Shaun

"He's my brother!" she yelled. "Just help him!"

Shaun started to back away, but tripped over someone who stood behind him. "Look - I - uh, have no idea what's going on. This is crazy. Totally ... crazy. I-"

"Shaun," Caroline stepped towards him. "Please. Just touch the wound, see what happens. That's all."

"I-"

"Shaun," Ella growled, stepping towards him in a threatening manner. "I don't care if I have to drag you over there myself-"

"Ella, I'm fine." Alex rolled his eyes, even though his breathing was laboured.

"Shaun?"

He bent under the pressure, although he was pretty mad. What were these crazies on about? What had just happened? He moved towards Alex, his arm extended. Then a voice cut through the tense atmosphere in the room.

"Hi guys, what are you all doing?"

**Mikael or April checking what's going on?**

Caroline Zane

Oh dear God. Everyone seemed to to stand still, even time, as Ella's dad walked in to the room. Alex's wound! They couldn't see it. Caroline glanced at Alex, but he was already holding both his hands behind his back. If Shaun had just healed it... Zane didn't exactly knew what the Hell was going on with her, about this powers things. She just remembered that one time she saw her mom in the back yard watering the plants with water that was standing in mid air, and making they're apple tree fill with apples, because Caroline had asked for apple juice. She used to love apple juice when she was a kid. And even in the Winter, when the flames in the fireplace would suddenly scarily rise. Zane first experienced that on a camping trip. She was freezing, even while sitting around the fireplace. Something, came over here, the sensation of heat and the flames rose. Every time she used her so called 'powers' the sensation of she was using would overthrow her.

"Nothing, really. We're just chatting right now," Ella was the first to react.

"Hum, yeah. Teen stuff, ya don't wanna know," Caroline did a dramatic gesture.

Ella's dad smiled. "Well, have fun then. Your mother and I are just going for a walk." He started to leave, but they still could hear him muttering, "...being stuck in this house..."

Round and round, the room started to spin. Caroline stumbled and supported herself on some table. "Shaun, will you just HEAL him?!"

"Wait a minute!" He complained, still discussing something with Ella, and Laurel was watching me close eye.

"Alex, give me your arm." Reluctantly, he distended his arm and calm waves were all around her, the sweet smell of the a walk around the lake filling her lungs. A small amount of water appeared above his arm, and Caroline dropped it (easily, since the control of her powers wasn't that big -- actually, pretty nonexistent), hopefully washing the wound. For all they knew it could be getting an infection right about now. But that was just too much for Caroline. Her head dropped forwards and everything turned black, followed by a 'back' on the floor -- the sound of her body falling.

Can I still introduce Sylas? If I can, what's going on right now?

I'm sure you can, Bolt. They are at Ella's and Alex's house (they are brothers). That guy that had taken blood from Mickael in the original sb showed up and took Alex's blood. Oh, and my character just passed out. She spent too much energy, nothing big x] You can make Sylas knock on the door or something.

Ella

"Caroline!" Ella yelled. "Caroline!" Ella bent down and started shaking her before someone picked her up and away.

"Leave her be," Alex whispered in her ear. "She's unconscious. Too much power in such little time. It happens to us all."

Ella looked up at him. "Alex, what's going on?" She asked as the last couple of hours went roaring past her. "This is all...it's all too much."

Alex shook his head. "I don't know, but I do know that things are about to stop. I'll- Well I'll make them."

Ella laughed a little and hugged Alex hard, burying her head into his shoulder like she used to do when she when she would wake up from a nightmare. Alex patted her back.

"It's going to be fine," he assured her.

Ella nodded numbly, still clutching to him. Just like the little girl she felt like, she needed his assurance. She always felt better.

Alex

"I don't know, but I do know that things are about to stop. I'll- Well I'll make them."
Ella wrapped me up in a hug. It remind me of when we were little and she had a bad dream.
"It's going to be fine," I told her calmly patting her back. No matter how old she was i would always be her big brother and she needed me now more than ever.
"Ok guy and gals we need a plan." I was going to step back and make some ;eaderesque speech but decided Ella needed me more.
"Any suggestions?"

Major writers block -_-

Sylas

I pulled up the drive way, and knocked on the door waiting for someone to answer.

Stretch the block, cause I can't think of ANYTHING, sorry.

Maggie

"I'll get it!" Maggie gave a small smile and bounded out of the room. It had felt strange in there, like something was pressing down on her head. Hmm, weird. ...Yeah... Like that was the only weird thing that had gone on in that room?

She pushed it to the back of her mind and focused on the normal facts of the situation. Everyone was in the living room. Caroline had fainted - okay, not exactly normal. The doorbell had rung. It needed to be answered. Maggie had been the closest to the door. So ... off she went.

The door squeaked as she opened it.

"Sylas!" she breathed. "Er, um, hi."

He stood on the front door, hands in his pockets. He looked up at her, smiling his boyish smile. "Hey Maggie, sorry I'm so late. Did I miss much?"

For a second her mind went blank, and her mouth hung open, then she simply said, "You'd better come inside."

**Edit: could Maggie have a crush on him? ^^ **
