The Discovery

Chapter 5 Answers

I ran into the house as I saw my parents tied up in a chair. My dad's mouth was duck taped but my mum's wasn't. She smiled as she saw me but that smile faulted as she saw Damon walk in behind me.

"What are you doing with him? What are you doing here? It's not safe go home! We're fine." My mum said smiling again at the last part though it didn't meet her eyes.

"I'm not going anywhere! I need answers and I need you back home!" I said yelling at my mum though it wasn't really meant for her.

"Woah hold up a minute. Now I said you could see them and there they are but you can't have them. You see I was with you the whole time and I missed out so I still have some business with them." Damon says his famous smirk on his face as he wonders over from where he was standing. He leans over and puts his hand on my shoulder as he says, "I just really want answers like you. So why not ask them all your questions here. I really want to watch this." He pulls away smiling at my parents before sinking into a couch behind me.

His brother then walks in with a glass of what I assume is scotch in his hand. "I thought I heard something. I'm Stefan in case you've forgotten. Welcome to our house. Sorry about kidnapping your parents my brother can be a bit extreme with these things. I promise they haven't been hurt. How could they have been my brother has been with you." He seemed genuine. It made him seem good like what he did was for a reason, though he didn't do much just, as Damon put it, babysat my parents. He's the good brother I can tell.

"He's right we're fine dear go home." My mum seems desperate to get me away but this just makes me more inpatient and I can feel Damon smirking behind me. He seems to know I'm about to blow. In some ways he acts like he's been my best friend for years and for some reason I find myself hoping we eventually will be. But I shake that thought off before I can start liking the bad boy even if it's just as a friend.

Then as my mum looks at me with pleading eyes I burst. "No I'm sick of this! We've moved yet again after you said we wouldn't, now there's been so many secrets revealed about you guys I can't keep up! Not that I understand any of them. I just want answers. Ok? Like what Damon meant by people like him. And the stakes in the kitchen and dad being a hunter of apparently people! I need answers because if I don't get them I will just move back to Beacon Hills. I'm serious, Derek lives alone in a massive apartment I'll move in with him and continue school at beacon hills high."

"Woah!! Hahaha I like this one!" Puffs out Damon laughing almost to the point of falling over. I for some reason can see us being friends.

"Fine I'm sorry your right we've kept to many secrets from you. We should have told you years ago. We were going to, so that you would know how to be safe. I just didn't want to scare you I'm so sorry." My mum then looks down so guilty that she put me in danger but I don't think she has I just want answers. I mean I got kidnapped but I don't know I didn't feel completely concerned for my life.

"Ok then explain. Explain how you not telling me put me in danger. Explain why there are stakes in our kitchen. Explain what dad does as a job." I look over at my dad as I say the last bit. He's looking at the floor but I can see the anger rising in him. He can't talk because the tape is still over his mouth but if it wasn't I think he would just tell me a lie tell me to move on and run away. He's always been a real 'hard' man I never got through to him really. I always think that mum some how roped him in to having me and getting married.

"If I told you, you could have known how to protect yourself. You could of known what the real world is like. I'm so sorry." My Mum started but she was talking to slow I don't know if she meant to or not but she was stalling.

"Mum! I'm sorry but I just want answers. Please!" I interrupt.

"Ok but I don't know where to start. I... I don't know maybe you could ask me questions?" I could tell she was uncomfortable but I couldn't tell exactly why my emotions were in overdrive and there's was so many factors that could be causing it.

"Alright. What's dad's job? Don't just say hunter! Explain what that means." I demand looking at my mum dead in the eyes.

"He's... um... he's a hunter. He goes out and kills supernatural beings. He protects people. He doesn't kill people for no reason though he kills those who kill us." Mum answers looking down I know she knows there's no way I believe her.

"Supernatural? As in vampires and werewolves? Are you kidding like I would believe that!" I'm basically screaming now I don't understand any of this.

"I know it's pretty crazy right? Unbelievable but it's the way this town is." I look over to the door where the person is speaking. It was Matt.

"What? Your saying that what mum said is true?" I ask walking over to him. Just his presence has calmed me, he seems to be the only normal one around here. He doesn't have intentions behind everything he does or at least I don't think so.

"I'm not sure what your mum said but I can tell you that as weird as it is vampires and werewolves are real." By the time he's finished speaking he has walked over and put his hand on my shoulder. It sends shivers down my spine but it's the good kind. The kind that makes me smile but I try to hide it it's not the time to smile.

"Come on they can't be and mum what do you mean we kill those who kill us?" I say I'm looking over at my mum as I say this but I turn to my dad just in time to see Damon smirk and rip off the duck tape on his mouth.

"Urgh first off its we hunt those that hunt us. If you want to see evidence, they I'm sure will be happy to show you." My dad is fuming as he says this but he's somehow not yelling.

I look over to Damon and Stefan as Damon nudges his brother and says, "go on brother your turn."

I don't have time to question it before Stefan's eyes are surrounded by weird grey bulging veins and fangs are lengthening from his mouth. Then I hear a slight wosh and jump turning around to see Damon in the same way his smirk planted on his face but now with added fangs and hunger in his eyes.
