Lol, I don't even use chapter names anymore, I got lazy. Anyways, I regret to inform you that if you find any typos in my story, it's because I'm back on my old computer due to my father leaving to go to my step mom's house.. and my computer's at home. So, sorry! Love you all. Here's chapter two!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Walking into the doorway, she could hear gunshots from the living room. She walked over to find my older brother playing Blackops Zombies again.

"Boom, headshot!" he shouted. Lucia smiled, shook her head and sat down next to him. "Hey sis, you made it back in time. Mom was just about to enforce the 5 minute entry."

She laughed, staring at the back of his head. He hadn't even bothered to look up from his game. She decided to wait until he was finished playing. He managed to make it all the way up to level 28 before getting killed.

"Damn it! I was so close!" He threw the controller on the couch and growled at the tv as the zombie guy laughed. Lucia took the opportunity to pounce on him while he was unsuspecting, planting tiny kisses all over his face as he chuckled and tried to push her off.

"Easy there tiger, you miss me?" he asked.

She nodded. "I did actually."

"That's great and all but," he pushed her off the couch. "get off, I can't feel my legs anymore."

She pouted and sat indian style with her arms folded. "Jerk!"

He shook his head. "Oh yeah, I got you something."

He dug into his pocket, took out a box, and tossed it to her. Grabbing it out of the air, she shook it lightly before ripping off the paper. She gasped, it was a new choker. It was black laced and had a red jewel in the center, the epitome of elegance and beauty. She hugged him tight and gave him a quick peck on the cheek, then dashed up the stairs to her room, closing the door behind her. She pulled her hair up and tied the choker around my neck, admiring her reflection in the mirror. It was beautiful. Lucia loved her brother, he was always nicest to her and protected her any way he could, especially from their mother.

"Oh Lucia dear, where are you?"

Speaking of the devil. She had to find somewhere to hide, fast! She ran to the closet. Only then after she'd hidden did she realize how stupid it was, and there was no time to look for another place to go.

"Honey, you got back in time, it's alright. I'm not going to hit you." She came into the room and began to look around. "Lucia.." she called, opening the closet door. "There you are darling, why would you hide from me? It's alright, you can come on out now." She said. But Lucia didn't move. Instead, she stood there, frozen to the spot. "Don't make me ask you twice. Lucia Micado VanHelsing, get your ass out here, right now."

She flinched and stepped out of the closet slowly. Her mother stood there, grey eyes hard and cold as she glared into the terrified face of her daughter's. She grabbed her arm and violently shoved her onto the bed before taking a seat as well.

"Honey, you don't have to hide from me. I love you, you know that don't you?" She asked while petting her.

"Yes mother. I love you too." Lucia tried despirately to keep herself under control. however, in the midst of her concentrating, she flinched.

"Is something wrong, dear?" she asked. 

She shook her head vigorously. "No mother, I'm fine."

"Don't lie to me Lucia, I can see through your lies. You're a filthy liar, just like the rest of your bloodline."
