The shadows

The cold truth

    After several hours of thinking I figured out how I was gonna tell Isabel I was her father. I was going to go over to Elana's house and demand to talk to Isabel, then I am going to kidnap her. I was on my way to Elana's house when all of a sudden a wooden stake was jabbed through my chest. I turned around to see who it was, and nobody was there. I turned back around and there stood Rickey with another stake in his hand. I asked him, "Why are you back in town? He said, "I've had enough of you Stephan, and my love for Elana was stronger than your compulsion!" He started running for me with the stake aimed for my heart.

    I used my vamp speed and ran behind him and ripped his heart out. Right before he was about to collapse I said, "Nothing and I mean nothing is gonna come between me and my daughter!" I arrived at Elana's house and knocked on the door. She opened the door and I ran in before she could tell me not to come in. She said, "what do you want, and have you seen Rickey?" I told myself to tell her the truth, but all I could think about was how much she would hate me if I told her." I told her, "No I thought he was here?" She said, "He's been gone since last night!" I replied saying, "I don't care where he is I just want to see Isabel!" The next thing you know she came out of her room and seemed older and taller. I asked Elana, "Why is she taller?" Elana said, "She's a hybrid she took after your dad." Isabel said, "But he's not my daddy mommy?" I looked at her and said yes I am sweetie!" Elana started crying and ran to her room.

   I should've told Isabel that Rickey wasn't her real father, now she's probably going to hate me for the rest of her life. A bird flew into my room and had a note on it. "Elana I'm sorry you have to find out this way, but I killed Rickey, and I've taken Isabel with me. I hope you can forgive me one day, and we can be a family together. I love you ~Stephan~. I ran into the living room and they were gone! "My daughter and Rickey are both gone", I thought to myself. "I have nothing to live for anymore!" I said. I broke the leg off of a wooden chair and stabbed myself in the heart.
