Mykayla
Well, these last two weeks have been very revealing. The guys sent the animals (all except for Ember.
Ember gave birth to four pups) out to search for those assholes. I think they have a good idea of where
they are but have not found them yet. Dominick, Xaydyn, and Jordyn are completely enamored with the
pups. Watching them sit there by Ember and watch the pups is so cute. One of the pups keeps
wiggling towards Dominick. It’s the same color as Dustin’s wolf, which is weird since Onyx is solid black
and Ember is the color of fire. I am sitting out back by the fire pit staring into the fire and watching it
swirl around as I twirl my finger. Mykenzie and Kylani helped me with bringing all my powers to the
surface, and to say what was discovered were a shock is an understatement. Apparently, Dimitri’s
brother added a supernatural creature to Mykenzie and Kylani’s blood that no one realized, and that
particular creature predominated in my blood. Chris explained to us that when his sisters bite someone
and turn them, it is a roll of the dice as to what supernatural being they turn into. It depends on what
DNA mixes with that person’s blood and DNA. I have to admit it was frightening, exhilarating, and
shocking when it happened. Thinking back on it now I am still amazed.
_FLASHBACK_
I have no idea why we are out here at night. We are all standing around the pool. The kids are asleep. I
am at one end and Mykenzie and Kylani are at the other end. We all watch as they float out over the
water and hover above it. I am standing there watching when I hear them both in my mind.
-Come out over the water Mykayla.-
“I can’t do this like you two,” I tell them.
-Yes, you can and speak only with us through your mind-
I look at them like they are crazy. I know that only they and Chris are able to do this. I close my eyes
and take a large gulp and walk forward. I hear a gasp and I open them to see myself hovering over the
water of the pool. I look at them and they both give me a smirk. I concentrate hard and ask.
-How- (I really don’t think this is gonna work.)
-Because you have more of our blood and DNA in you than anyone realized-
OH, FUCK I CAN TALK TO THEM THROUGH THEIR MINDS! What the actual fuck is going on? And
what do they mean by that? I hear a growl, and I know it’s them. It sounds like they are challenging me.
I can’t help the sound that comes out of me as a red glow starts to appear around me. The sound is like
a screech a large bird would make. All I hear is someone say no fucking way. I keep my eyes glued to
the women in front of me as they engulf themselves in their mesmerizing blue fire. I watch as they
throw a fireball at me, and I know what’s coming. I catch it like I did last time but this time, it doesn’t
stay blue; instead, it turns red and I look like I am on fire. I see Chris join his sisters as I hear
-Earth- Mykenzie says
-Air- Chris says
-Water- Kylani says
-Fire- I say
I can feel the power flowing through my body and I see my father staring at me in shock. What the hell
is going on? I suddenly have an image in my head of what I look like. I am hovering over the water and
I am engulfed in fire and the fire looks like the wings of a bird. My eyes are glowing green and I can’t
believe what I see. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? I have no idea what fucking creature I am.
-FLASHBACK END-
It turns out that apparently, Dimitri’s brother Dominick had mixed in some Phoenix DNA and blood.
Apparently, he neglected to tell anyone this information. As to why I have so much extra blood from the
girls is because my mother helped repair the girls when she was pregnant with me (before she realized
she was pregnant), and she must have had a wound herself and a large quantity of their blood mixed
with moms. Dad said he remembers her getting really sick for about one week but then she seemed to
be fine. That must have been when it happened. Dad said they found out she was pregnant two weeks
later but thought nothing of it. Since that night, Mykenzie and Kylani have been helping me control my
powers so I can use them when I need to, as they do. I am so lost in thought that I don’t even hear
Dustin sit down behind me until he wraps his arms around me. I jump when he does this.
“Sorry didn’t mean to scare you firefly.” He whispers in my ear.
That’s his new nickname for me. I roll my eyes at him, but I smile. The nickname fits, and I think it’s
quite cute. I was worried at first that this might be too much for him but he reassured me that nothing
about us or our relationship is going to change. In fact, he picked out wedding colors and I have to say
he did a damn good job. I lean back to get comfortable but jump when I hear a loud crash from the
house.
“WHY ARE YOU THROWING FUCKING FIRE ME?” Ashton screams.
“BECAUSE YOU ARE A GIANT FUCKING TWAT.” Mykenzie screams back.
I just laugh as Dustin groans and gets up.
“At least they aren’t arguing with Chris this time,” I tell him as I get up.
“They better not burn the house down.” He grumbles.
“I wonder what color hair he will end up with this time?” I ask him.
He just laughs as we walk back into the house. I love this group that we have acquired and wouldn’t
change them for all the money in the world.
