Two smirking boys stood at the door. I'm going to assume that they are the players Poppy warned me about. One had glossy black hair and Cat green eyes. He had a normal skin tone and was tall and well built. The other had messy hazel hair and eyes and was tan, tall and well built.
"Jarl, Jared, go away, go to America, go to china, go to hell, go back to your families. No one cares...Whoops I forgot, you don't have any family because they abandoned you guys didn't they?" Poppy said harshly like a glacier cracking. She sounded cruel, heartless, dead and hateful. Not the girl I just met but like one of the girls in the description.
"At least we know that they are alive and well unlike you, and didn't your mother happily toss you over to Logan though he knew exactly what he was." They said glaring.
"Actually, Dad persuaded her to hand me over. And at least my name doesn't match any of my family members." Poppy retorted. "Oh wait, I almost forgot, you two aren't really related now are you?"
"At least we aren't named after plants that we look like." They threw back. Poppy looked ready to try and kill them... Preferably painfully. From what I heard of Dad, he would probably injure her badly if she did that and I couldn't let that happen.
"Common Poppy, Lets go, I want to unpack and this is a lot of stuff." I said gesturing towards my bags. Poppy shot me a grateful look and nodded.
"Sure lil' sis." She happily agreed.
"Now where are our manners Jared, we forgot to introduce ourselves to a new member of the family. I'm Jarl and he's Jared. Let us help you with your bags." He offered. The idiots, because of all my training I was strong. So it was rare for me to find anything heavy but these bags felt like they weighed tons. Honestly what did I pack? Poppy glared at me telling me not to accept but I might as well make them suffer. No one offends my sister and gets away with it. Plus I doubt she will enjoy carrying them to or apartment.
"Sure." I said cheerfully sticking my chest out a little and batting my eyelashes. It felt weird flirting but it was to make them actually do it and stick with it. Poppy looked at me like I disgusted her. Jarl and Jared swaggered over and picked up my bags. They looked like they were those weight lifters you see on TV. Hey they fell for the bait and if they backed out Poppy could taunt them for being too weak to carry a couple of 'extremely light' bags.
"God, what did you put in them?" Jared asked. Poppy shot me a weird look. It was a mix of understanding, apology, and pride. I don't blame her. I felt extremely smug. We walked 'slowly' towards the apartment.
"Put them there please. Thanks!" I shouted at them. Once they left we collapsed laughing on the sofa.
"I'm sorry I ever doubted you. Did you see their faces! It was priceless! Not only that but we didn't have to carry your unreasonably heavy bags here! God you're a genius." Poppy announced.
"Who's a genius?" A tall pale girl with straight black hair tied into a neat pony tail asked. She had full lips and icy blue eyes, long dark eyelashes framed her large eyes and she had the grace of a professional ballerina.
"Brook, this is Zee. Short for...well you already know." Poppy introduced.
"So your our new sister..." Zee said while inspecting me, she must have liked what she saw because she smiled and nodded approvingly. "Girls!" She yelled. A bunch of other girls rushed into the room looking at Zee nervously.
"Yeah Zee?" A tall girl with wavy platinum blonde hair asked. Her hair was shoulder length and she was pale with spring green eyes.
"Girls, this is Brook." Zee announced. "Make her feel at home, once you're done I'll introduce her to...Erm yeah." Zee said. I looked at the girls and they were all staring at me in shock.
"What?" I asked uncomfortably.
"She approved of you, normally we have to earn her approval but she just approves of you. It's kind of weird." Poppy said. "Anyway, this is Jill." She said pointing to the platinum blond.
"Hi brook." She said waving.
"Obviously this is Hannah." She said pointing to a girl that looked like her.
"Hey sis." She said with a grin.
"And Last but not least this is Sasha." She said pointing to a tall girl that had straight blonde hair that reached her breast. It was highlighted hot pink, electric blue and black. She felt dangerous I don't know why but my instincts screamed run! Go away now! Flee!
"Yo." She said sounding amused and smirking at me. She looked ready to torture anyone to death. Probably because she carried a neatly coiled whip at her waist as a belt and a large regal sword at her back
Soon we were talking like normal people with normal lives and everything. After a few hours, Zee came out.
"Okay Brook, don't freak out...Sweetheart, you can come out now." A little girl no older than seven dashed out and hid behind Zee's legs. She shyly peeked out and waved. She was a pretty Asian with long brown hair that reached her waist, heavily lashed eyes and naturally tanned skin.
"Brook, this is your niece, Joanna." Poppy announced nervously.
