The Vampire: The Life of Catherine Part 2

Chapter 22

February 2nd 1997

San Francisco, an alarm goes off and a female hand slams down on it crushing it. "Oh shit, now I need to buy a new alarm." Amy says out loud and climbs out of bed in her silk nightgown and heads to the bathroom. Amy leaves the bathroom and can smell food coming from downstairs in the large manor. She gets dressed in some jean shorts and a green vest top and heads downstairs and finds her two daughters and Jasmine and her grandchildren all sat around the table eating breakfast.

"Happy you could grace us with your presence mother." Her eldest daughter Natalie says to her with a smile. "My home, I can get up when I please Nat." Amy scolds her. "See. You owe me fifty bucks." Her youngest daughter Nicole says to Natalie. Amy looks at Jasmine confused. "Nikki bet Nat that you would use my house line." Jasmine tells her with a smile. Jasmine moved to San Francisco many years ago and bumped into Amy on patrol one night, they tried to kill each other at first but became fast friends, Jasmine has helped raise her grandchildren when Natalie came and found Amy a few years ago with her husband and children in tow.

Nicole came a few months ago when her 3rd husband died of a heart attack, and she came with his daughter. Natalie has two older daughters who she's not seen in 50 years and Nicole has 4 daughters who pop up now and again. It's just a house to the outside world full of young beautiful red heads. Natalie's eldest daughter to her current husband is 16 looks just like Amy minus the red hair she's the only brunette in the family. "Hayley. You missed your bus." Natalie scolds her.

She stands in the mirror applying her lip gloss, She's wearing a short skirt and a cropped top spaghetti top and her boyfriends leather man jacket. "Tyler is picking me up in 10 minutes." She says to them. Amy just laughed at the whole situation but eyes up Hayley's shoes. "Hayley are they my shoes?" Amy asked her. "Yea gran, they just look cute on me." She says to her. "I know they are cute it's why I bought them. Ask next time, or you'll be training with me." Amy scolds her.

Hayley has fear written all over her face, and you can smell it in the air. "Of course gran. Sorry. Why is Hallie not on the bus." Hayley asked about her 14-year-old sister, who's sat eating her cereal next to her 13-year-old cousin Hillary. "Your aunt Nikki is taking them to school today." Natalie tells her daughter. Natalie's husband David comes downstairs in his gray suit and gun holsters on, with his suit jacket under his arm. "Get upstairs and change your outfit." He says as he sees what Hayley is wearing. "But daddy, Tyler will be here soon." She pouted.

"Good, give me a chance to shoot the little shit." He says as he pats his gun. "Upstairs now and change." he yells at her. Then walks into the dinning room and kisses Natalie's cheek. "Morning ladies." He says with a smile. They all say morning with a smile, he sits down with a cup of coffee and some toast, David is human but knows everything about the family and Jasmine, moments later Hayley comes back down in a pair of jeans and the same top as she likes to show off her toned abbs and belly bar ring.

There's a knock on the door and Hayley thinking it's her boyfriend she runs to open it. It's Raphael and Zachariel in very expensive three-piece suits. "May I help you?" Hayley says to them. "Hello I'm looking for Amy Dankworth." Zachariel asked the beautiful teenager. Hayley eyes the two very handsome men at her door, she senses power from them both.

"Sorry gorgeous but no one by that name here." Amy looks over at the door and her mouth is wide open Nicole looks over at the door and screams dad out loud and runs over to him, Natalie is not far behind. "My beautiful girls how I've missed you. Where is your mother?" He asked them and sees her running to him and jumps into his arms and begins kissing him passionately. "Eww gran, that is so gross." Hayley says to her. Then it dawned on her that she was checking out her grandfather. There is a car honking outside, and she grabs her bag and heads out, wanting to wipe the image from her mind.
