Rebirth of the Wizard King

Chapter 9

Hope you enjoy it.

For the remainder of the day, I was thinking about the weird dream I had, how could I occupy the body of someone but had no control over the words or the actions. A small amount of that time, I showed my face upstairs once and it was just to prepare something for their dinner and something to eat and then leave. 

During that time, I tried my very best to stay out of my adoptive parents' and siblings' way. So far, I've been doing a wonderful job staying copped up in the little area, called my room. The good thing about today was I didn't have to do all the tasks I had to do each day, I didn't prepare breakfast, and I didn't have to clean.

 I didn't even have to make dinner, but I still did it anyway. I didn't even have to take care of Helix today. Most of the day, I was locked in the storage room just laying around, but sadly, all good things must come to an end, because before me stood two of the spawns from hell. 

"I thought you said you would leave me alone," I said to Savanha, as I was upset that they won't just find something better to do. "Well dad, gave us some things to do and as the stranger in the house who mooches off our food, I think you should take over these tasks" Brandon retorted.

You don't have to guess, I ended up doing more than I planned for the day, by nightfall, I was exhausted, and my back was aching from the cuts been irritated. I had a shower or more like a wipe down and I didn't want water to touch my injuries. I quickly fell asleep but sadly, I didn't get any more weird dreams, even though I was kind of looking forward to a dream like that.

 A whole week passed like that, one my fourth, I was given back my duty of 80% of the chores, I would normally do except cooking and taking care of Helix. The work was unbearable to do with the constant aching on my back, but anything was better than cooking to please those hooligans. "Wake up, didn't I tell you to clean up after us in the library, it's a good thing, I went back in there before dad got up" a noise of complaint woke me from my slumber, my drowsy eyes focused on the place the disturbance came from, the mouth of Brandon. 

The mist of laziness still resided in my bones and brain, too lazy to think about what he just mentioned. It also came to my attention, that we stood side by side with his partner in crime, a fellow spawn from the pits of hell, Savanha. Such as shame that they will not be able to get the satisfaction or victory, they think they will win today, as today is the day I officially turn 18 and will be able to start getting my exit out of this family ready. 

My birthday and I could wake up to nothing but complaints from two spoiled brats that seem to forget the world we live in. Today a member of the Vampire Race or better yet, our government or dictators will send a representative to visit the home to check my livening space and well-being. That's probably the only good thing that people in my situation appreciate that our oppressors come to check on us to ensure that we are not being tormented by the families that have been left in charge of our lives.

Because of these yearly visits, I know that they cannot leave any bruises on me or else this whole family will crumble. "We are here to remind you that as soon as the vampire scums leave you will be in a world of hurt" the little half-a-nut, Savanha said, and Brandon like the clown that he is jeered. "I wonder what dearest dad would think hearing how you address the vampires, I pondered and smiled at the two fools. 

"If you try anything we will all, be in a world of hurt" I continued watching as their faces change from smirk to anger. 'If that's all, I would like your fellow people for providing my first gift for my birthday. Glad I was able to help provide some knowledge to you" I laughed at them, days like this are the only days, that get to say whatever I want to say without any issues or repercussions. I motioned them to the door and got up and started getting ready for the day, yesterday was my last day away from my greatest challenge in the kitchen.

 I ensure to wash my hair and got dressed in the nice clothes I have. Upon entering the kitchen, I notice that Elizabeth and Jonathan are not present. That's odd, they are normally present, if not Jonathan because of work, Elizabeth would always be at the table, ready to judge anything that has been prepared by me. Extremely weird coming from a woman who can't even plate the food that she purchased.
