I pulled into the driveway, pulling the keys out of the ignition. I trudged my way up the driveway, exhausted from driving, and extremely not ready for the soon to come conversation. What if my mom doesn't knowing anything? I would be left with no answers and I basically just wasted three hours of driving.
I rang the doorbell, hearing faint footsteps coming from inside. The door was swung open revealing my mom with a smile plastered on her face. "Mom!" I smiled walking into her warm hug. "Back so soon, huh?" She asks while we walk towards the kitchen. "Are you hungry? How was the drive? How's Jess?" " I'm not hungry, the drive was kind of long, and Jess is good. But before you ask another question I want to talk to you. That's the real reason why I came home for the weakened." "Yeah, sure." She led the way towards the couch, while I slowly walked behind.
I sat down on the other end of the old couch that belonged to my grandmother. I don't know why we still have it. The bottom is ripping, and the cushions sink in too far. I guess my mom is still connected to it after my grandmother died.
I let out a nervous sigh, dreading what I am about to say and my mother's reply, " I think I know why you're here." "You do" I slightly smiled. "Are you having boy troubles and you wanted your mothers advice?" "No Mom that is nowhere near it. And I'm in college I know how to handle my problems."
I pursed my lips, and took a deep breath. "This might sound crazy, but you're my mother so I hope you can hear me out, and I hope you have answers." I need to just tell her. I will start from the begging. "The day you dropped me off at college was the day it began. Actually wait, no, it's been happening before that." She gave me a confused look. "What's been happening?" She asked.
"Nightmares, things going missing, and stuff like that. I suddenly started to have the same recurring nightmare the last two weeks before the day we left to the college campus. But most of all in my nightmares, I would always end up killed; or almost killed. By the same person every time. Also the day when Jessie and I went to IKEA's I saw him, my killer.
The car came to a stop at a stoplight, and I saw him on the sidewalk across from the car. I was scared, terrified. I thought I would be killed because he would kill me in my dreams." I let a hot tear roll down my cheek, and continued.
"That day I left Jessie very confused on my sudden outburst but she didn't ask any questions. Later that night she slept over, and I had another nightmare. I basically had to tell her everything. I didn't want to tell you because I was afraid. I only told Jessie because she was there when I woke up screaming, I had no choice." I let all the tears fall out.
"Sydney you could-"
"I'm not done." I coldly interrupted her. " I thought he was apart of my imagination, but I was proven wrong. I was taking a shower the day Jess and I got to our dorm. I heard whispering and my name being repeated. I was stepping out of the shower and I slipped, but I was picked right back up. And that is when I found out 'My Killer' was real. He didn't try to kill me though. I don't know why, but he didn't.
After that day, he wouldn't leave me alone. He would appear at any given moment. It was quite annoying actually." I stifled a laugh. "
Then a couple days later of nightmare free nights, I had a nightmare. It was different. Dad was there and 'My killer' whose name is Harry actually, was there too." My mom sucked in a sharp breath at the mention of Harry's name, and dad. My actual dad.
" I couldn't recognize where we were, but we were being chased. Dad said to run as fast as I could, so I did. I ran into a dark alley and Harry was there too. I could still hear whatever was behind me. Hissing, growling and screeching were evident. Then the alley came to a dead end, and he said we had to kill whatever was coming after me. They looked so real, but dreams can do mysterious things. I started to kill these-these creatures, using an ability I never knew I had. I woke up after that, and that is when Harry said to come home and talk to you to ask you about all of this."
I finished finding my fingers very interesting. I don't know if have ever been this uncomfortable around my mom. I think of her as someone I could always run to, but this subject seems so unrealistic to where she would think of me as crazy, psychotic, mentally ill.
"Sydney, before I begin you are not crazy, and all of it, I mean all of it is real." All of it is real, so everything that happened was real. " Your father he is-um- he is a vampire slayer. I know it sounds corny, but he killed only demonic vampires. The ones that you would here about in movies and books. The ones who would be burned if they touched the sunlight. He kills those. And Harry. He was sent by your father to protect you as soon as your turned 18. That's why you started to have nightmares a couple weeks before you left for college because you just turned 18, and It was Harry's messed up way of introducing himself to you I guess.
Harry is a vampire also, but he is not a demonic vampire. He is well he is an angelic vampire. It sounds weird, but it means he only kills the bad creatures and what not. He knows how to control his thirst, but he can change from a tamed soul, to a devilish, demonic creature if he were to be bitten by a demonic vampire."
I can't take this all in. Why me? Why does my family have to apart of the unknown creatures that linger through this world? I'm not sure weather to accept all of this or to pretend none of this has ever happened.
"Sydney, you have to trust him. He is the only one that can keep you alive. You are being hunted by the demonic vampires and other demonic creatures. There is something in your heart that they want. Your grandmother was a slayer too. There was something in her heart that they wanted too. That is how she died. The took her and took what was in her heart. They will do the same to you if you aren't trained well."
"Wait mom, what about you?" I asked clearly puzzled. Is she a slayer too?
"It skipped a generation, but I don't know if the creatures know that. But worry about yourself. Ok?"
"Ok." I simply nodded. This is too much. I now know the truth of my grandmother's death, and as to why she died so young in her early 50's. I have no choice but to except the fact that my family was chosen. We were chosen to guard a powerful energy in our hearts that shall never be taken. So now that is my duty to guard my heart and soul with my life.
