Devastation

Meeting her teachers

"Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction." ~Saint-Exupery

I don't know how long this story will be, just remember who owns "Danny Phantom"

I do not own One night in Bangkok, California Girls, Material Girl, Awesome Eighties, Love Stinks, Come on Eileen, or I hate myself for loving you.

Sarah went downstairs when Vlad called her for dinner. She wasn't going to point out that he

had just broken one of his own rules. She wasn't sure how he would re-act to that, so she

decided not to test him. She made her way to the dining room and pulled her own chair out. She

 wasn't very far from Vlad. She remembered that he could read her mind, so she tried to keep

her mind clear. A lady named Sonora served the roast chicken. Jasper poured the drinks. Vlad

had champagne. Sarah had apple juice.

"Any allergies I should be aware of, Darlene?" Vlad asked.

"You should have asked Mom about that." Sarah glared at the man who was making her call him "Father".

Fruit loop, she sneered in her mind.

What was that, Darlene Elizabeth? Vlad asked in his. (Yes, he actually has one.)

Fruit Loop. She repeated, taking a sip of apple juice. Vlad's face registered a look of surprise. Sarah giggled.

They were also having mashed potatoes. Sarah scooped some up on her spoon and threw it at

Vlad. It hit him square in the face.

"You definitely got that from your mother." He said, wiping it off. Sarah giggled.

"It seems I must tell you not to throw food at the table. Do it again and you will be punished."

"Yes, Father."

Sarah used her fork to tear some chicken off the bone. She ate it instead of throwing it.

I wonder if Desiree will grant any of my wishes?

Only for objects such as books or rubber ducks.

I already have several rubber ducks.

Well, I told her to only grant your wishes for objects.

So, if I wished that I knew what to do about something, she can't grant it?

No, you must figure that out by yourself.

Yes, sir, Father. I will.

Good girl. Remember what your mother told you before you left home. I know she told you to behave.

Why should I deny you the experience of teaching me a lesson?

Vlad laughed. Oh, so you don't want to deny me the chance to teach you a lesson? That's very thoughtful of you.

Well, I decided you've been denied the chance to teach a younger person some things, so why

not let you teach me? But I will NOT fight my half-brother, nor will I despise my Dad.

Very well, woman-child. But mark my words, young lady, you WILL join me willingly.

NEVER! Sarah's eyes flashed green like Danny's when he's mad.
