Bab 2: Bella & History
"Talking"
'Thoughts'
*Audience*
___
"Questions for another time!" I told myself.
First, "TO THE WOODS!" I yelled out just before running down the stairs, humming the Batman theme song. I made it to the back door before I froze. "...can we just delete this pilot episode? Please?!" I asked, looking at the ceiling. After receiving no response I shrugged, giving up.
After making it a few hundred feet into the woods, I walked into a clearing.
"Alright! Sephiroths blade. How about an alloy of all the best metals i know of?" I thought aloud just before a black Masamune appeared in my hand.
After swiping through a few trees I was left speechless. No resistance. No vibrations through the blade to the handle.
"This weapon is to over powered for this world. I can't even practice my slashes because they are to attention grabbing!" I ranted aloud.
"I can't even practice my flight until after dark...but I can see my wing!" I said excitedly before 4 pitch black wings popped out the back of my shirt. 2 on each side.
"Huh! That boon WAS overpowered." I admitted just before a golden halo appeared above my head.
".....shit!" Was all I could say.
A FEW HOURS LATER
Back in the house
I sat on the couch just waiting for Bella to arrive.
"This world was a mistake. It's so boring!" I said aloud as I continued flipping through channels on the TV. "The irony. A TV character, watching TV while being watched. I hope yall are as bored as I am!" I said aloud, hoping I wasn't alone in my boredom. That thought actually helped.
A minute later I heard a car pull into the driveway just as I switched to Tom & Jerry.
"Finally. I was about to go to a random Marvelverse just to fight in the battle of New York!" I ranted. I swear I heard some *AWWWWW MAN!*s from somewhere around me. "...I'm assuming my viewers work as a sound audience but only certain things come through...great." I mumbled just before the door opened.
"Lucian? Ah, there you are. Mind helping Bella get her things out of the car while I grab a beer? I'm all stiff from the long drive." Dad asked.
"Of course. Trunk open already?" I asked.
"It is." He answered as he walked into the kitchen.
I stepped outside to see Bella struggling to grab more than she could carry. As I reached her I started grabbing everything off her in 1 hand and the last few items from the trunk in the other.
"Close the trunk then get the door. I got it all." I told her with a smile as she stared at my 6' 6" form in shock, only nodding before proceeding to do as I said.
(Going off remake height in this 1. He wa 6' 1" in the original game but 6' 6" or 7" in the remake)
After making it to her room across from mine, I set all her stuff onto her bed before turning to her.
"Hello baby sis." I managed to get out before she threw herself into my arms as I copied her power and pasted it to myself.
"Lucian! I've missed you big bro!" She said as she held on like I'd dissappear.
(NO! NO INCEST IN MY NOVEL.....well...maybe a little. BUT NOT HERE IN TWILIGHT!)
"I've missed you too. Mom stopped letting us visit each other 4 years ago because I wouldn't lie to the police. And I'm sorry fo..." Bella interrupted me.
"NO! It wasn't your fault. That boyfriend Mom had, Andy, laid his hands on me and you defended me. Yes, you broke his arms and almost killed him. But he thought he was alone with me and was going to..." it was my turn to interrupt her.
(Little shout out to another movie she played in. It would actually explain why she was so...Bella. Movies name: Speak)
"Don't remind me." I said as I tightened my hug. "He's lucky the cops showed up when they did but he got what he deserved in prison. I was told he didn't make it a week before the other prisoners got ahold of his paperwork. Most of them have kids so kiddy diddlers don't last long in there." I said with a smirk.
"Let's change the subject. You're 21 now, almost 22. Any girls i need to get through to spend time with you?" She asked with a smirk.
"No. Nobody really talks to me besides Dad and now you. My appearance shocks them." I said as I ran a hand through my white hair that now had a golden sheen in certain light.
"Fuck them! If they treat you that way just because your looks don't adhere to their sensibilities, they don't deserve to know you at all!" She said.
"Normally!" Dad said as he walked into the room. "I do not condone cursing! But this time she's right, Lucian. Fuck them! You look amazing just the way you are. I know most people think you dye you hair and wear makeup to keep your skin so pale and even wear colored contacts. But I raised you and was there the day you were born and I know it's all natural. Don't let them get to you." He finished as he wrapped us both in a hug. A hug within a hug. "My babies are both back home. Where they belong." Dad mumbled just loud enough for us to hear.
"I know. It's just been a bit difficult, feeling like a leper anytime I need to go into town. I'll be honest. I want to buy a house a bit further from town so we can all still stay together but I can go outside without feeling like a zoo animal. Even going to and from my car has the neighbors staring through their windows until I leave or go back inside." I said.
"So your investing from grandma and grandpa's inheritance work out well?" Bella asked me. "I saw that beauty you have sitting out there. Is she a 68 or 69?"
"1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1. And yeah. I've turned my 60k into a few million. What about yours? I helped you set it up in that high yield savings account so it could grow safely until you turned 18 or bought your first car. It should be around 70k now, right?" I asked.
"About that...mom spent it all on lawyers for Andy." Bella said before she felt Dad and I both stiffen. Both for different reasons.
"Lucian..." dad said, trying to calm me down.
"...she...did...WHAT?!" I yelled.
"Please calm down! I've already put it behind me. It's actually because of that that I was able to move back here." Bella said calmly.
"...fine. But we're going to get you a car tomorrow. I'm paying!" I said, giving no room for argument.
"Okay. That's fine. Just calm down. Please." Bella begged, still holding me in her arms.
"That money was for a car and hopefully college if you decided you wanted to go. I won't do anything, but I'm NEVER going to forgive her for that." I said.
*Party pooper. Almost had some action there* I heard.
'Yeah well, if I make this world burn, Bella would suffer in 1 form or another.' I thought silently, hoping my thought would be heard by them.
*They are. Not everything, but anything you intend for us to hear is. You won't here from me much but I'm basically your narrator. Have fun!* the voice said before going silent once more.
"Okay, enough of these topics. We're going to the Cafe for dinner. Get dressed and meet me downstairs in 10." Dad said as he walked back out the door.
"Aight. We'll be down shortly." I said before finally releasing Bella from our hug. "Lets get this over with." I said to Bella as she nodded in understanding. In this world, I was the quiet shut in that disappeared into the woods for days at a time while Bella was outgoing(ish) and Dad didn't spend years alone so he was somewhere between the 2 of us, and at times motherly.
"Maximum effort." I mumbled, trying to motivate myself, as I walked down the stairs with Bella giggling behind me before jumping onto my back.
"You know, I'm sure I could find you a girlfriend..." Bella started to say.
"No! Thank you though." Was all I said as I pulled her legs up so she was dangling like a rag doll.
"Don't bother Bells. I've been trying that for years now." Dad said as he opened the door for us to head out.
