She didn't want to leave either, but they didn't have a choice at this point. "Until then." She whispered.

She pulled Seculus into a nearby alleyway before leaving, causing Terezi's body to go limp against him. This was the safest place they could do this at the moment. at least before the man followed them into the alley.

🌀

I caught her and glanced over my shoulder nervously at the opening onto the street. Please wake up quickly...for now, I hid her limp form behind a dumpster, hidden from the entrance.

2015-05-04 04:58:22

●

For once, Terezi did wake up quickly. Her eyes fluttered opened before she asked. "Why is there a vampire standing just outside this alleyway?"

Her voice was different, and now he suddenly she acknowledged him? Nevermind. Enough games. He immediately made a run towards them.

2015-05-04 05:01:15

🌀

A vampire? Well, that might've been nice to know earlier. I pulled her to her feet and further down the alley. "No idea, let's talk about this later."

2015-05-04 05:02:52

●

She was quickly thrust to her feet and moved hastily with Seculus. Why out of all times was she awoken to this? She glanced behind her and saw the male rushing towards him. He looked like- no, couldn't be. He's dead.

2015-05-04 05:07:06

🌀

Was he catching up? I couldn't tell, and I felt like if I looked back to check I'd run into a trashcan or something. Actually, that might happen anyway. It was very dark here.

2015-05-04 05:09:46

●

Terezi looked back at Seculus. "This guy isn't going to let up, we're going to have to confront him." She slid to a stop. Fighting was something she didn't want to do, but she didn't have much of a choice if it came to it.

The woman stopped, and he did as well. Cane in hand, he was ready to fight to get to the human. "Step aside, woman."

2015-05-04 05:14:12

🌀

I stumbled when she suddenly stopped, carried by my momentum, but caught myself on the wall. I turned to look at the silhouetted figure. Step aside? Wait a second, his goal was /me/? Oh dear. I raised my fists shakily, as if I could do more than Terezi against another vampire.

2015-05-04 05:17:53

●

The two vampires stared at each other for the longest time. He looked exactly like- No it couldn't. She looked exactly like-was she? The taller male looked that female in the eyes.

She had his eyes.

It had to be her.

"...Terezi..." He relaxed.

"Father?"

2015-05-04 05:21:37

🌀

I blinked in surprise and lowered my fists. What? Well, this was an...interesting development. I didn't feel like I should interrupt, but I looked him over. Come to think of it, he did resemble her. Why had he been following us, though? He obviously hadn't known their relation until just now. It was still a sweet reunion, however much it may prove lethal for me, so I stayed silent and let them enjoy it.

●

He stood in front of her. Clearly his height was NOT passed onto her. He cane rested at his side.

"Qu'est ce que tu fais là? Qui vous a changé ?" Terezi's father asked, in flawless French.

"...Je pourrais vous demander la même chose." She responded in just as perfect French.

"Bien, un homme nommé Cale dit-"

"That's your first problem." She switched back to English.

2015-05-04 05:33:28

🌀

I caught Cale's name, but that was about it. Apparently the fact that Cale was involved at all was an issue, though I'd sort of lost track of the conversation topic by this point. Interrupting seemed like an even worse idea now that I had no idea what had been said. Waiting around also wasn't smart, but when have I ever been one to pick smart over chivalrous?

Daniel's gaze went from Terezi, to Seculus, then back to Terezi. "I understand that we are in a country the primarily speaks English, but I raised my daughter in France, so I do believe that is the language she should be speaking to me."

"...amende." She folded her arms.

"Bon. Maintenant , comme je le disais, Cale mentionné quelque chose sur un homme qui a été possesed et battre l'enfer hors de lui." ( google translate was bitch, good fucking luck)

"Oui, mais il n'a pas été Seculus."

2015-05-04 15:20:37

🌀

I heard my name and frowned at the context. Or lack thereof. "I'm aware of your adherence to basic principles, but I'm sorry, if I'm involved then I would like to know exactly how. In English, preferably."

2015-05-04 15:28:11

●

Terezi turned her head to look at Seculus. "Cale thought it'd be cool to lie about Tassek beating the shit out of him and blame you instead." She translated.

Daniel raised an eyebrow. Tassek? That name was familiar to him. Ah yes, it came back to him now. His oh so protective mother as well. He was in New York? Lovely. Another task to take care of.

2015-05-04 15:32:20

🌀

I blanched. "...what? That's...actually half-intelligent of him. If a bit impulsive." I had no right to talk on the matter of impulsiveness, though. But he'd protected darling, and I had to appreciate that. Or tried to. It looked like that plan had gone to shit.

2015-05-04 15:38:17

●

"...This Tassek fellow you mentioned, you know him?"

She looked back at her father, frowning. "Yes, why?"

"Oh, just the son of a friend I knew. Nothing you need to worry your time with. However, I must be on my way. I do have business to attend to. I shall be in touch." Daniel turned around and left the alley.

2015-05-04 15:44:32

🌀

When he left, I let out a breath and ran a hand through my hair. "...I believe I see the reasoning behind Cale's lie. Now he--your father, congratulations on that by the way--knows who darling is. That may prove to be a problem later."

2015-05-04 15:47:34

●

She tossed Seculus the house key. "Which is why I'm getting to the bottom of this now. Let yourself in, I have a vampire to visit."

A vampire who probably will be missing his arms after she's through with him. /If/ Cale can survive that long.

2015-05-04 15:49:28

🌀

Oh dear. Cale was probably in trouble. But there was nothing I could do about it now. I nodded and reluctantly made my way back to the building.

2015-05-04 15:53:20

●

Quickly, Terezi made it to Cale and Zane's apartment and knocked on there door. He hands were balled into fist, and her teeth were clenched tightly behind her closed mouth.

There was only one other time she was this pissed, and that was when she found out that Cale brought Spyders here.

2015-05-04 15:55:54

🌀

Zane opened the door, rubbing at his eyes. "No, he is not--" Then he lowered his hand and stared at Terezi. "...oh, hello. I assume you are here to beat up Cale for whatever he may have done this time?"

2015-05-04 15:57:41

●

"Well I'm sure he'll have plenty of time to explain right before I tear his throat right out of his neck, CALE!" She screamed his name as she moved Zane aside and entered the house. No, politeness was something she wasn't doing at this point.

2015-05-04 15:59:59

🌀

Cale jolted awake on the couch and looked around him wildly before his gaze settled on Terezi. "...oh shit."

2015-05-04 16:03:02

●

"Oh shit is right." she smiled, her fangs bared and a look as if she was ready to set fire to this place. "Now lets start with, oh I don't know, WHY THE FUCK MY FATHER UTTERED YOUR NAME IN A SENTENCE, OR BETTER YET WHY HE IS ALIVE CURRENTLY?!"
