Not-so-friendly family reunion

I remember when dad left. It was sudden and without much warning. I was young at the time, so I didn't understand what was happening. All I knew was that one day dad was there and the next day he was gone. That was it. I never saw him again. It was like he vanished of the face of the earth. All I want is some answers from him. Then I felt the plane stop. I felt someone's hand start to unstrap me and pull me up out of the plane.

*Payton's POV*

"Wake up...Payton? Payyyyyytooooon...Wake up." I heard an annoying but cute voice say. (Girllll no...It's Damian.) My eyes went big. I can't be crushin on my brother like that... ('Brother') Whatever. "I'm up." I said while rubbing my eyes. "Good, Because we're here." He said excitedly. "Okay." I said. (Get ready for a not-so-friendly family reunion) What do you mean. (Nothing just... be prepared.) Ok. As I got out of the truck I saw a humongous beautiful house with a huge pool in the front. It looked like someone's dream house. "Wow. T-This is amazing." I said. "Yea... It was my dad's idea to get it. He said he wanted something big enough for all of us." Damian said with a sad look in his eye's. "Well then, Your dad has great taste. You all must have personal maids, butlers and chiefs. Your room must be huge, And your bathroom I can only imagine." I said. While I kept rambling on and on, Damian got our stuff out of the truck and started walking towards the house while I followed like a lost puppy. "You must have a music room, painting room, and a gaming room. That would be so amazing." I said. 

As the doors opened the loud yell of a woman's voice filled the room. "LORENZO. GIVE IT BACK. I SWEAR IF YOU BREAK IT I'M GONNA MURDER YOU." She screamed at the top of her lungs. I swear she just hit a Mariah carey note. "YOU DON'T NEED THIS THING. UGLY CAN'T BE MASKED BY BEAUTY, IT WOULD LOOK BETTER ON A DOG THAN YOU." I'm assuming the guy named Lorenzo said. "CAN BOTH OF YA'LL SHUT UP, FOR FUCK'S SAKE. YA'LL CAN'T BE QUIET FOR A DAMN SECOND BECAUSE YA'LL CONSTANTLY AURGE, JUST SHUT UP." A different female voice said. "I'M HOME." Damian screamed. "NO ONE CARES." They all screamed in unison.  "OKAY THEN." He said. "I'll take you to dad's office when you get settled in." He said. "I don't have anything to settle in with." I said. "We'll get you some stuff tomorrow after breakfast." Damian said. "Okay" I said. Then Damian clapped his hands twice and a butler appeared out of nowhere. "Please take her to the west wing and let her choose her own room. After that report back to my room." Damian said to the butler. "Yes sir." The butler said. He then lead me to what I'm assuming was the west wing. After I chose my room I took some time to check out the place. It truly was beautiful.

 I grab my phone and texted Damian. 'Do you have a minute?'-Payton 'Yeah sure, What's up?'-Damian 'It's too much to text, could you possibly maybe come to my room?'-Payton 'Uhh yeah sure I guess.'-Damian 'Okay ttyl.'-Payton. After he came into my room we started talking. More like I started talking and he started listening. I just needed someone to vent to. He was the only one that I could talk to that I knew wouldn't judge me. "Lay it on me, What's wrong?" He asked. "I feel nervous. There are a lot of things I don't understand about this situation. I'm not a hundred percent sure that he's my father. What if he doesn't want me to be here? Can you imagine if he had a good reason for leaving?" I said. "Your a wonderful girl. He would be a fool if he didn't want you. I would love for you to be my sister. Also, Nicolette and Scarlett would be happy to have some little sister's. Maybe then they would leave Romeo and Lorenzo alone. Anything else you want to talk about?" Damian Asked. "I feel like I am in a dream and can't wake up from it. I don't know what to do. I'm scared that if I do wake up I will forget everything that happened. I just want some answers. What happened to my mom? What happened to my family? I'm so confused. And the worst part is I have no one to talk to. Just when I thought I knew what was going on, everything changes. I know I'm the one who made this happen. I came to you first but you couldn't help me. And now I need to find my sisters. I have to be the hero of the story I didn't know was being written. I need to find them before I lose them forever." I said. "Well I know that you won't lose you sister's forever. You're not responsible for everything. Just focus on the task at hand, ok?" He asked. "Okay." I said. "Dad's assistant said that he will be back in about a few hours. We could talk to him then." Damian said. "Alright, Thank you." I said. "For what?" He asked. "Bringing me here and helping me." I said. "No problem." He said. 

*Paris's POV*

After The plan stopped, I felt someone pull me out of the plane. And then everything went blank. When I woke up I felt like the air around me was filled with a sense of salty tears. When I looked over at Patience she was crying and looking at something that I couldn't see. There was chains on our ankles. We were in a dark cell, like the ones in jail. We had a tiny window. There was a man standing next to both of us. They seem like bodyguards, ready to pounce if either of us makes the wrong move. I'm scared and I can see that my sister is too. I want to yell for help but the words just won't come out. Out of the silence, a deep rumbling voice startles me from my thoughts. I look up and see an older man sitting in a chair across the room. He stares back at me with a stern expression, but his face softens when he speaks. He explains that he is my mother's husband and that he has been waiting for us to arrive. 

"If you're our mom's husband than why are we chained up?" Patience asked. "Because I know what ya'll are capable of, you are both just like your mother." The older man said. "What is that supposed to mean?" I asked. "I can tell that you both are smarter than you look. You can fool the world, But not me." He said. "How can we be sure that you're our father?" Patience asked. "You have another sister, Payton, You also found out that your mother who raised you is your aunt and you think I killed her." He said. "You still don't know everything." I said. "I don't care if you're our dad, let us go." Patience said. "Put them to sleep." He said. "Wait no. Please." I said. Then everything went black again.
