The unknown daughter

Chapter 7

Mikaela's point of view

Alison was sent immediately to the hospital. I was tending to the wounded. I was able to use the things I've learned in my demon exorcist training. I saw Dante unharmed. Not a single scratch! I approached him. "Hey, can I talk to you for a while?" He nodded and smiled. "What do you think of them?" I asked and he had a questioning look. I mentally faced-palm and sighed. "You mean Alison and V?" I nodded. "Well...... I won't lie I'm jealous that V has a hot badass chick around him even if he doesn't want her to..... but I have to admit.... they're in denial." He smirked. My eyes beamed with happiness since I feel the same way. "Alison and Vergil are meant to be together. I know it!" I rejoiced in my mind.

"How do you think she killed all those demons?" He scoffed. "I have a friend that kills demons with her strength alone, it's no surprise she can do the same." I looked at the bloody ground, "but still..... she was able to rip a demon's head with her bare hands after being fatally wounded. I feel like we're missing something." He thought deep, "now that you mentioned it. She did dodge a bullet from Ebony (the black gun) and wasn't shocked at all. It's like she knew and expected it." We just gathered our thoughts and cleaned the bloody floors.

"Do you think we can visit her later?" He scrubbed the walls. "Why the hell are we doing these shit?! We're not the janitors!" I hit him on the head with a mop and scolded him. "You can't rely on the janitor doing all the work! Sometimes you just have to do the work." I sighed and continued mopping. A low growl came from Dante but his phone rang, "what's the news V?" He beamed with slight happiness and hope, but It all changed into a serious expression. He looked down and listened to Vergil's words. He frowned and looked at the sky through the window. "Okay. I'll be there after we clean the blood. See you in a bit." He hung up and started to clean quickly.

We finished after three hours and he still has that serious facial expression. It's killing me out of curiosity! I want to know how my best friend is doing! And with that facial expression, it's driving me insane. I don't want to lose ANY of my friends! "Hey Dante. Why the smug face?" I asked trying to keep calm. Unlike Alison, she can control her emotions and keep her cool most of the time. "Vergil said she's fine. But of course you know.... she's in coma. Wanna come with me?" I nodded. "At least he said Alison's fine but the expression of his face holds a different meaning! What is it?!" I slightly frowned.

Dante and I rode his motorbike and he drove to the hospital recklessly that made me scream and him 'whooping'. I hugged his waist and buried my face on his back in fear of dying. He suddenly drifted and, "WHOO!" I slowly released myself and hit him hard on the head. "What the hell was that for?!" He pouted at me. I gave him a deadly glare and shouted, "you could've killed me! You moron!" I got off and went inside the hospital. I asked the nurse's station and asked, "excuse me where can I find Alison Grey?" She started looking through the logbook, "may I ask who's visiting ma'am?" I quickly replied. "I'm her friend." Dante caught up after flirting with some nurses. I pouted, "why does he have to be flirty?" I just crossed my arms and laid them on the counter. "She's in the room 737" I smiled. "Thank you" and left.

Dante followed me. I thought about what I over heard while treating the wounded. 

*flashback*

"I thought she was protecting us. But I think she was just showing off and flirting with the twins. She can't leave a single day without flirting with them..... it's pissing me off." The injured guy said. "Unbelievable! We're in a fatal situation! How can she flirt at such a time?!" The slut screamed. I tightened the bandage and moved away. She already had bandages but it was sloppily wrapped. I took her arm and she slightly flinched. "Who gave this to you?" She blushed. "Alison did." I slightly gasped and said. "How?" She held her chin shyly and spoke, "when I was about to be killed by a demon, she killed it before it could kill me. I haven't even thanked her yet. Even though she saved those sluts' lives.... they still resent her." My eyes shimmered at her statement knowing that not everyone else in school hates her. "What's your name? I'm Mikaela Astor." "I know... you're the only daughter of Daniel Astor... I'm Ashley Scott." I smiled. "I thought no one noticed. Nice to meet you Ashley." We chatted a little more before I heard Alison shrieking. We looked her way and I was about to run to her but Vergil stopped me and HE ran and pinned Alison down after ripping the demon's head off. She roared in fear and pain mixed together. I saw blood welling out of her eyes instead of tears. Vergil picked her up and rode the ambulance. 

*End of flashback*

The elevator doors opened and we exited it. I saw Vergil talking to her parents. "Looks so serious" I slowly approached them and they stopped. I haven't met them but Alison showed me a family photo of them. I greeted them and introduced myself. They shook my hands. Her mom was crying still and her father holding her in his arms. I entered the room and saw her lying on the bed. The heart beat detector, I don't really know, connected to her. Vergil has wiped off the blood on her face and her arms and legs. I sat beside her and held her hand. Tears welled up in my eyes and started sobbing.

I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was Dante. "She's going to be alright. She was able to kill those demons, there's no way she would be killed that easily!" I looked at him and hugged him. He stroked my hair and comforted me. This is what I loved about him. Even though he's flirty and takes some situations lightly, he takes the time to comfort his loved ones. Though Vergil doesn't. I was able to stop crying and once I did, Vergil called Dante and they went outside. I just held on Alison's hand. Her parents came in without me noticing.

"Mika?" I looked up to her mom. I wiped my face with my hands and she hugged me, I hugged back. "You must be a really good friend of Alison. She really doesn't have much friends that she can trust. Now she has three. You, Dante and Vergil. She told me everything you guys went through in school. And the other two caused her trouble and happiness." "But I still have doubts about the red one" her father said. I smiled at them and we chatted for the rest of the night 'til it was time for me to go home.

I arrived at my house. The ginormous gates opening like a castles gate. My father treated me like a princess but I refused. I was the one to inherit the company and he's training me how to handle business affairs and how to handle money wisely. It was frustrating. My father welcomed me and my mother is in another country. As always it was the same old routine. I just greeted my father and went straight to bed. But my father insisted to have a small talk with me.

I let him in. "Sorry to bother you, dear but it is very urgent and critical." He explained. We sat on my wide bed and he sighed preparing for what's to come. "What is it? Is it something about my exorcist training?" He looked at me in the eye. "I heard you've been very close with Alison Grey, is that true?" I nodded. "I suggest you stay away from her. She is dangerous to be around with. That's why no one ever approached her.... she is someone you can't stop at some points."

I frowned. "You don't even know her! Why are you telling me to stay away from my best friend?!" He sighed. "I read through her files from her previous school..... the file was elusive. Turns out it was extremely classified. The school gave me common information.... they refused to give it all for the sake of their reputation. She attempted murder just because of being bullied." I just stared at him with wide eyes not believing what he said. "Father. I-I don't know. I'll ask her directly she's my friend..... she will tell me the whole truth." He nodded and kissed me on my forehead.

"Goodnight, darling"

"Goodnight. Father."

He left and I was left in my thoughts with incomplete data. My mind couldn't think straight. I can't believe just because of being bullied she nearly killed someone.

"Why did you attempt murder?"

"Why did they bully you?"

"Why didn't you tell me?"

So that was a different point of view... my mind is starting to have different ideas and choices! Yay! I hope it's not "that" boring and lame. So let me know what you think.
