A week after Shelby's return it was the twins 7th Birthday. People were still grieving the loss of the 50 soldiers they had a special memorial 5 days ago. Marigold had been hard at work on making a beautiful cake for the twins. Kathryn and Bethany were busy decorating the mansion with purple and pink decorations.Jason and Mason were keeping the cooks with the food. Ryker was helping with wrapping presents. By the time he was done it was time to wake the twins. He quietly sneaked into their room. It made him smile how peaceful they looked. He really didn't want to wake them but it was a big day for them and already 11:00 in the morning.
Ryker: Amelia? Sierra? Its time to get up angels. Its your special day.
Sierra:* sleeply*Ryker
Ryker: yes angel
Sierra: will mommy be coming
Ryker: i don't think so Sierra
Amelia: but its our birthday*tears start swelling in her eyes*
Ryker: hey, hey don't cry * he held and rocked Amelia* its okay
Amelia in tears: I want mommy
Sierra also in tears: i do too
Ryker: shhhh if your mom could be here she would in a heart beat but she has to ve able to control her thirst. She loves you both so much im sure its hurting her not to be here with you on your birthday.
*knock*
Ryker: yes
Matt: its matt. Everything is ready
Ryker: okay give us a few minutes
Matt: alright
Ryker: come on little ones I know it won't be the same without your mom but I promise to make this the best 7th birthday every. Okay?
Sierra and Amelia: okay
Ryker was true to his word. There were plenty of games, food, presents, and children to play with. It was the perfect day.
Marcus: you did a good job Ryker. They really needed this
Ryker: it wasnt just me
All of a sudden there was a commotion going on. Ryker noticed Amelia and Sierra in tears running out the front door. Ryker walked over to the group of children.
Ryker: what happened?!!
Everyone was silent
Ryker: I'll ask one more time what happened
A little girl came walking out of the group. It was Masons 10 year old daughter Melody
Melody: the twins were making a wish and the wished that there mother was here and Alex *pointing to a boy in the corner* made fun of them
Ryker walks over to the boy Alex
Ryker: what exactly did you say young man
Alex with his head down: I said their moms a monster and that they need to grow up because their mom doesn't love them.
The parents of Alex came and stood by Ryker clearly very angry.
Father of Alex: Young man that was uncalled for.
Mother of Alex: to your room now. Sorry everyone well be back
Ryker: i need to go find the twins
Kathryn: we will try and keep everyone occupied.
Ryker: okay I'll be back
Ryker ran outside calling for the twins . 30 minutes he found them in the forest sobbing on a boulder surrounded by trees.
Ryker: oh little ones
Ryker sat on the boulders and rapped his arms around them as they clung to him
Sierra: Alex said..
Ryker: i know * kisses Sierra's head* I know
Sierra: he is so mean
Ryker: he's just an idiot sweetie
Amelia: all we did was wish for are mommy to be here
Suddenly they heard a rustling sound. Before they could react there in front of them stood shelby

Shelby picks up both her girls and walks towards the mansion Ryker trailing behind her.

With her telekinesis she flung open the front doors of the mansion. Everyone was in shock. No one said anything. Shelbys fangs were showing everyone could tell she was angry. She searched around for Alex she found him standing by his parents. She let out a growl. She gently set her daughters down and before anyone could blink she was standing in front of Alex and his parents. Looking down with fangs showing
