Chapter 5: Mystical
pregnancy.
Four months later:
A POV
How the hell does this
always happen to me? Bad luck I guess. I was captured by none other
then Drusilla! I let her go when I was 13 even though I told my dad
that I dusted her. He was going to blister my butt when he see's that
Drusilla took me. Well first he'll dust Drusilla and then he'll
blister my butt. I would be lucky if he waited for us to get home.
But knowing my luck after dusting Drusilla he would bend me over
right there and spank my VERY sorry butt. I am currently chained to
the wall and Drusilla hasn't really done anything to me yet. Why? I
have no idea. But I don't think she's the brains of the operation
seeing as she doesn't have all that many working brain cells left.
Half of her brain is dead and the other half is locked away in
wonderland somewhere or wherever it was when Angelus finally left the
poor girl alone. I could have called for Cole. He would have heard me
and come to help but I was pretty shy around him. Then again Drusilla
was crazy as a loon and I could thank my father for that so maybe it
was better if I did call him. “Cole. A little help here.” I cried
out.
He heard me just I thought
he would and shimmered in. gotta admit that was cool. The shimmering
thing. He saw me chained up looked around and since Drusilla had left
the room she wasn't in here. Cole yanked the chains free and I used
my telekinetic power to make the cuffs break so that my hands were
free.
Then we heard a spell being
chanted and suddenly we were in a cave. Cole took my hand and tried
to shimmer us out. But his powers weren't working in the cave. That
was weird. The chanting continued and then it stopped.
And then for some reason
neither of us could explain we were all over each other. Kissing
grabbing. Touching. Stripping. And then we were really in trouble
after that. I being a virgin was completely new to this so I just let
him take the lead. We did several things. He used his fingers first
bringing me my first orgasm. Then there was more kissing and then he
had me on my back and he was between my legs using his mouth and WOW
when I came that time it was powerful!! then he entered me and there
was only a small amount of pain and I was so in love and burning up
and then that first time it was fast. We did it a second time after
that. And then a third. And then a fourth and by then we were
exhausted.
And then an hour later the
lust spell wore off and we both avoided looking at each other while
we got dressed. We were SO dead. Daddy was going to kill him! And
then he was going to kill me!
The cave was suddenly gone
and once again we were in the crypt and a second later as if it was
planned Drusilla was there and then dad was there along with Connor.
Dad saw Drusilla and then looked at my guilty face and then attacked
Drusilla. I almost stopped him but Cole stopped me and then Dad
dusted her.
Cole asked if they wanted to
take the easy way home and we all of course said yes. Cole shimmered
taking us with him back to the hotel and then he glanced at me and
shimmered out. I wondered if we would take about what happened later.
Then Dad was all over me “Alison Marie do you want me tell me how
Drusilla kidnapped you when you supposedly dusted her 3 years ago?”
Dad asked sternly not amused at all.
“Uh....I didn't dust her.”
I admitted.
Dad snorted “Yeah. No
kidding. I just dusted her.”
I scoffed “yeah and that's
not really fair seeing as YOU made her in the first place.”
Dad raised his brow at me “I
was Angelus back then. There's a difference. And this isn't about
what I did to her back in the day. It's about you lying to me 3 years
ago. Why did you lie to me? Why didn't you just tell me that she got
away?” Dad asked.
I knew had to be honest now.
“Because she didn't get away.” I said.
“What do you mean she
didn't get away?” Dad asked. “What happened then?” dad asked.
“I was gonna dust her I
swear I was. But I had a vision. Of Angelus. I saw what he did to
her. And I saw it again that night. That's why I woke up screaming. I
had a nightmare of him doing the same thing to me.” I confessed.
Dad was stunned. I said the
last part of it then “I let her go.” I said.
Dad stiffened “Excuse me?
You LET her go? Why?!” Dad raised his voice.
I cringed “Because! I told
her not to come back and I thought she would stay away!” I said.
“And that's why you don't
let vampires go Alison! You can't make a deal with a vampire. You
can't let Drusilla go and then expect her to not come back again.”
Dad scolded.
I felt bad now. He was
right. “Am I in trouble?” I asked.
Dad sighed “No.”
“Okay. Why not?” I
asked.
“First of all it was 3
years ago. Second of all you were 13 years old so you really didn't
know that she wouldn't stay away. So that makes it more my fault then
yours for not explaining things better. I never told you not to let a
vampire go before. So I'm telling you now. You see a vampire you dust
that vampire. You don't let them go. The only thing I can really
punish you for is lying to me. And again that was three years ago so
it seems a little unfair to punish you for that now. Let's just let
this one slide for now. Next time you lie to me I'll wash your mouth
out with soap.” Dad threatened.
EEK! Soap! No thanks!
Things were pretty normal
for the rest of the day. That night I went to sleep.
End Of APOV
Connor got up the next
morning and got dressed then everyone was downstairs and had
breakfast. Connor could feel that Alison didn't feel well. It wasn't
anything bad. She was cranky though. She ate breakfast and then she
turned slightly green and ran to the bathroom to throw up.
Angel and Darla glanced at
each other slightly worried that maybe she was coming down with
something.
Connor gasped “Oh no.”
he whined and grabbed his head “Ah!” he cried out as he jumped
from the chair Angel jumped up as well “Vision!” Angel said
catching Connor as Connor went down on his knees Angel held onto him
as he had the vision.
What Connor saw made him
pale. Several shades. Alison came back in and stood by her chair
waiting to make sure Connor was okay.
When the vision ended Connor
was breathing heavily. “What did you see?” Angel asked him.
Connor was very pale. Angel
helped him stand up. Connor shook his head no as if that would stop
it from being real. Then he went over to Alison turning her more
towards him.
“What?” Ali asked eying
him curiously.
The room went silent when
Connor reached down and placed a hand on her belly. And then Alison
gasped deeply when something very obviously moved inside her as if a
baby had just kicked Connor's hand where it lay. Connor paled again
now that it was confirmed and then his eyes went to Alison he kept
his hand where it was. Announcing two words “Mystical pregnancy.”
then added “Alison...Your pregnant.”
And that was about all Angel
could take. “WHAT!!” Angel shouted.
How in the hell was she
pregnant!!
Darla sat back in her chair
glad that she was already sitting down because she would have fell is
she was standing.
Garret and Alana just stared
shock a lot like their parents.
Illyria broke the silence “I
do not understand. How can Alison have a baby if she has never had
sexual intercourse.” Illyria asked.
Angel groaned “Illyria!
Please! Don't use the word sex and my daughter in the same sentence.”
A guilty look crossed over
Alison's face. Angel saw the look and he shook his head as if to
clear it and a look of hurt and shock fell on his face
“You've.....Your not....” Angel couldn't find a way to word it.
Why was it so hard to say you've had sex before or your not a virgin
anymore?
Connor caught glimpses in
her head from the day before with Cole.
Connor stiffened “I'm
going to kill him!!” Connor raged.
“Who?” Alison asked
still trying to adjust to fact that she was going to have a baby.
“Cole!! who do you think?”
Connor stated.
“Cole?” Angel
questioned.
“Yesterday Alison and
Cole......” Connor paused. Apparently he couldn't say it either.
But everyone go the picture.
Alison grabbed Connor's arm
“No! You will leave him alone because niether of us chose this.
Something unnatural happened yesterday. When Cole came to save me we
were transported somewhere by something. And then Cole and I
just.....It was like we were being controlled by a spell or
something. Maybe it was a lust spell or something. But that means
it's not really our fault because someone else cast the spell.”
Alison said.
“Spell or not you two
still......” Darla paused and then continued “Did it. And that is
why your pregnant. Connor of course saw it because he has visions.”
Darla said. Angel groaned “Darla!!” he whined. Darla ignored him.
A POV.
“What do I do?” I asked
not sure about the how's or whys but I wanted to know what I was
suppose to do now.
“I don't know. But don't
worry. It's gonna be okay honey.” Mom said which didn't help at all
or answer my question.
Connor's hand was still on
my belly and whatever was inside me seemed to like him. It was so
weird. When Connor touched my belly it felt like it kicked. But that
wasn't possible. It wasn't developed enough to kick. Right?
Dad left the room and I
really hoped that he wasn't going to go sulk about me having sex or
being pregnant.
I went to my room to change
and then I called out “Cole. I need your help.”
Cole shimmered into my
bedroom briefly looking around and then said “What?” there was an
awkward silence and then I said “Uh. Connor had a vision.” I
said.
Cole raised his brow. True
we didn't always call for his help. “And what did Connor see?”
Cole asked.
“He saw
me......Now.....Pregnant.” I blurted out.
Cole paled a little then
said in disbelief “Pregnant? But it was just yesterday. It's way
too soon to tell. Plus we only had sex...” He paused then said
“Four times.”
Yup. Hey wait. “No we had
to have done it more then that. What about the other stuff?” I
asked.
“What other stuff?” Cole
asked.
I blushed “You know! When
you used your fingers and your...” I was probably bright red by
now.
“My mouth? Well
technically yes that was part of sex too. I did that to make your
first time special so that you would enjoy it. Sex with a virgin can
be painful if you don't know what your doing. I didn't want you to
feel any pain. There a little pain but that's normal. But technically
the actual full sex we only did that four times. Not that that wasn't
enough to get you pregnant but still there's something not right
about this whole thing. I mean first we get placed in that cave then
we hear that spell and then we're all over each other and now your
pregnant.” Cole said suspiciously.
I was suspicious too but I
also found that it didn't bother me that much. I mean I was going to
have a baby. A real baby. For some reason.....I couldn't find a
downside to that.
“Aren't you even remotely
excited?” I asked nervous that he wouldn't want me or our baby.
He gave me a stern look “Ali
that's not what I meant. If it's real and actually ours then of
course I'll be excited but there are other factors here like whoever
placed us in that cave and chanted that spell. What if I was just a
decoy and you were already pregnant before we did anything together?
We have to think about that before you start thinking about that baby
as yours. Cause it may have been put there by something evil. We have
to think about that.” Cole explained.
Well that made sense and
kind of spoiled my mood a little. Was this what it was like when mom
was pregnant with me and Connor? Everyone afraid that maybe we were
something evil? That was an awful thought.
I didn't dad to catch Cole
in my room so I just had him leave. And then I laid on my bed not
sure how or what to feel. I put my hand on my flat belly rubbing up
and down and then I dozed off.
When I woke up an hour later
I was genuinely scared. I was bigger. I had a baby bump. A small one
but it was still noticeable! Not that I was worried about gaining
weight cause Hello Pregnant. But I knew it didn't normally happen
that fast!!
I screamed for the first
person I could think of as I stood up and looked in the mirror “Mom!”
of course it being our place
more then just mom came running. Mom arrived first of course. Then
Connor. Then Dad and I was surprised when no one else ran in.
“It grew.” Connor stated
the obvious. Yeah Connor. We can see that!
Wes appeared then. “wow.
That was fast.” he said then added “I think Cole might have been
right.”
“What?” Connor asked I
was confused too.
“Cole came to me a moment
ago and told me that he thinks that Alison might have become pregnant
before they did anything. He said there was chanting. And that they
were moved to a cave. And then Cole felt that he was possessed by
something. He couldn't control his own body. Something else was
touching Alison. Something has been trying to make Cole feel that he
is in love with her and that he is suppose to be with her. But he
knows deep down that it's a lie. Whatever is trying to manipulate him
isn't actually part of him. Perhaps that same thing made Alison
pregnant and then possessed Cole's body to make it seem like Cole was
the father.” Wes explained.
Uh. okay. That's just weird.
I thought.
“So what is it then?” I
asked.
“I don't know. Perhaps we
could get a look on a baby monitor at the hospital and see what's
inside you. See if it's human. You seem to have grown 5 months in an
hour. That seems to point more towards Connor's theory that it's a
mystical pregnancy. If the baby were truly Cole's then she would go
all nine months with the baby. It wouldn't grow like that.” Wes
said.
Okay well I guess we're
going to the hospital.
Basically Fred stayed home
with Illyria Alan and Ava. Garret Connor dad mom Wes and Gunn came
with me and we snuck into a room.
Mom instructed me to lay on
the table and then Wes put this gooey cold stuff on my belly that
made me smile cause it was cold. The he spread it around with this
weird looking thing and it projected the inside of my belly onto the
monitor.
We all looked at the screen.
Wes moved the object around
“There it is.” he said and he showed us the head and then said
“Well it appears normal. Like a human. But that doesn't mean that
its any less dangerous. It's....” Wes stopped as apparently he
spotted something.
“What?” I asked
wondering what he saw.
He glanced at my parents
first then at me “It's a girl.” A slight smiled was on his face
“your carrying a girl.” he said.
A girl? “Wow.” was about
all I could say to that.
Suddenly three woman that
looked a little like nymphs that belonged in a forest or a fairy tale
land appeared out of nowhere. Actual they kinda smoked in. there was
smoke and then each one popped in.
there was three in all. Each
of them wore a long skimpy green dress and they were really beautiful
and their faces were very pale.
I sat up on my elbows to get
a better look at them. They looked pretty harmless. Then again I
looked pretty harmless too so looks were deceiving.
“Uh. Who the hell are
they?” Mom asked.
“We are the guardians.”
The blonde one said.
“Guardians of what?” Mom
asked.
“We were sent to protect
the pregnant Miracle child.” The brunette one said.
“What pregnant miracle
child?” I asked confused.
“She means you. When I was
pregnant it was impossible so people called my baby a miracle child.
They didn't know you were twins anymore then we did.” Mom explained
then said “So your here to protect Alison and her baby?” Mom
asked.
“Of course. We were
created to protect her.” The one with red hair said.
“Who sent you to protect
her?” Mom asked.
“Demetrius.” All three
of them said together.
Mom gasped apparently only
she was getting it. “Demetrius? As in.....The god of power
destruction and Chaos that's trapped in the hell dimension Quor-Toth?
That Demetrius?” Mom asked
“Yes. We come from his
flames as does she.” The blonde one said looking at me.
Mom scoffed “Excuse me but
my daughter came from me. And her father.”
“I am sorry. I wasn't
speaking of your child. I was speaking of his.” the blonde said.
“Wait. His child.” Mom
then stated “Of course. The essence of the god impregnated Alison
to create an offspring to help him come back and regain his godhood.
He was destroyed and trapped in a pit and now he's only a flame. He
can't bring himself back but he can use his offspring to help him but
last time I heard about him he was almost powerful enough to come
back on his own.” Mom explained.
Okay. Kinda hurt that I was
being used by a god to bring an offspring into the world. Said
offspring would also be used like a pawn to help bring him back.
“So...That's bad. Right?”
I asked.
“Yeah. That's bad. There's
a reason why he was destroyed by his own mother. He was born a god to
a human mother. But he was evil. He did things. Things that even
Angelus wouldn't do. The only person that was safe from him was his
mother. His mother used that against him and destroyed him taking him
out of this world sending him to the worst hell dimension there is in
order to stop him. Because she couldn't save him. But his spirit
clung to the hell dimension and found a home. It is said that it was
a small flame at first but as it got stronger the closer he came to
living again. The flames that appeared when you were brought
back....That had to be him. Choosing you. And then he tricked Cole
and when he realized he couldn't manipulate Cole into loving you he
just used dark magic to make you pregnant and then possessed Cole to
throw us off his trail. But then why send these things to protect
you. That gives him away.” Mom said.
“Hiding is no longer
important.” The blonde one said.
Okay first things
first...”What are your names?” I asked wanting to know.
The blonde one said “I am
called Rose.”
The brunette then said “I
am called Ivy.”
The red head said “I am
called Daisy.”
Wow. That was random.
“Okay.” I sighed then
whined “Can I get off the table now?” I asked.
Mom came over to help me off
the table. The three woman were instantly by my side almost
surrounding me and my mother's grip tightened in a protective manner.
“Back off.” Mom growled
at them
They took a step back but
they weren't afraid “Easy vampire. We have no intent to harm your
child. He wants your daughter safe. Alive. That's why he sent us.”
Ivy said.
“He sent you to protect
his Child. We don't need help to protect mine. As you can see we are
more then capable of handing that on our own.” Mom said.
“But we can not leave. We
must stay and watch over her. We must guard her.” Rose said as if
leaving me was a sin. Maybe to them it was.
I could see mom about to put
her foot down so I said my piece “Come on mom. Why does it matter.
It won't hurt anyone if they tag along to the hotel and watch me.
They won't hurt me.” I said.
Mom sighed “Fine. They can
tag along.”
I felt pleased and then I
felt a sharp pain that had me doubled over “Ah.” I yelped and mom
grabbed me and had both arms around me “Ali? Honey breath.” mom
said.
I threw my head back and
groaned tears coming to my eyes “Ow!” I cried out.
End of APOV
She was growing more. That's
what was causing her pain. She was growing. Connor flinched at the
sight and Gunn seemed on edge about the three woman.
Ivy the brunette came
forward her hand glowing Darla growled at her “Don't touch her.”
she snapped.
Ivy whined “But....It will
help. Please..... Let me.” Ivy said in a sweet voice as if trying
to hypnotize Darla. Darla wasn't fooled. But decided to throw the
three a rope. “Fine. Whatever your gonna do do it fast.” Darla
said.
Ivy's glowing hand touched
Alison's growing belly and even though her belly kept growing the
pain stopped. Alison took several breaths and Darla panicked “This
thing is coming soon Angel. We need to get her out of here.” Darla
said.
Angel came over and picked
Alison up off her feet and headed out along with everyone following
him.
Once back at the hotel they
informed the girls about what happened and then Angel laid Alison on
the couch in the lobby. Trying to decide what to do. If the baby was
evil then maybe he should kill it. His eyes strayed to the three
'protectors'. Maybe that's why they were there. To make sure that
nothing harmed the baby once it was born.
Connor had another vision
then as Alison sat up on the couch her hand on her enormous belly.
When the vision was over
Angel asked “What did you see?”
Connor rushed over to Alison
moving her onto the floor to lay her down.
“What are you doing?”
She whined.
“The baby is coming.”
Connor said and as if that was a magic word Alison went into labor.
The three protectors came
over to help deliver the baby.
It was a hard labor. Alison
screamed a lot. She had a grip on Angel's hand and would not let go
for all the world. Angel tried to help her telling her to breath.
Ivy had stripped her from
the waste down and Connor covered her with a blanket to help her keep
her modesty. Everyone else just sorta stood around and watched.
It wasn't that long of a
labor actually. It only lasted about an hour and Angel was too busy
helping Alison to see what everyone else was now noticing. The sky
outside was turning black and lightening and thunder flashed in the
sky the during the entire labor.
There was a shrill baby cry
and Ivy praised “She is here. The purifier.”
Alison's stomach instantly
shrank again back to normal and she looked sat up with her father's
help and looked at her baby. A look of awe crossed her features and
then she giggled and a smile to light up the world crossed her face.
“She's beautiful.” The baby had a good patch of brown hair on
her head the same color as Alison's.
A POV
Ivy moved to hand the baby
to me. “Wait.” Dad said pulling me further away. “I'm not so
sure that's a good idea.” dad said.
“Why not?” I asked
confused. I wanted to hold my baby.
“The child will not harm
her mother.” Ivy informed him.
I gave my father a stunned
look “Daddy. She's a baby! Just look at her. She's not gonna hurt
me. I bet you weren't afraid of me when I came out!”
Dad snorted “Your right. I
wasn't. That is until you set Wesley's desk on fire. Then I was a
little afraid.” dad admitted.
Okay so I could understand
that. I mean come on. Fire. Vampire. But that didn't stop him from
holding me!
Dad moved with me to help me
stand up. “Fine. But your not to be alone with her.” Dad said
sternly.
I nodded eager to agree to
anything. I held out my arms and Ivy came over and handed me my baby.
The three woman left disappearing for some reason. Where had they
gone?
My baby. It was so strange.
I didn't even know what to name her.
But she was beautiful. I
know some babies aren't all that great looking when they come out.
But that wasn't that case with her. She was so pretty. And she didn't
cry. She just looked at me with crystal blue eyes that made her seem
even more adorable to me.
Everyone looked at her but
no one wanted to hold her. Connor was afraid to touch her. He was
afraid that he would have another vision.
I saw Ava look at the baby
and then she stiffened and gasped. And a look of anger mixed with
protectiveness came to her face.
Everyone knew that look and
it put everyone including me on alert.
Ava came over and planted
her feet.
“Ava.” Dad said
warningly wanting an explanation just like I did.
“Angel....Take that thing
from her and put it on the floor.” Ava commanded using a tone that
made her sound just as godlike as her mother was.
Why did she want dad to put
my baby on the floor? Why didn't she just ask me? I reluctantly let
my dad take the baby and he placed her on the floor. She sat up all
on her own. She looked about 8 months old.
Ava looked at my father.
“Hold her back. I will make this fast.” Ava said which made no
sense at all.
Then a sword came to her
hand and I was shocked that she had used her powers.
My father suddenly must have
guessed what she was going to do before I did. He put both his arms
around me and and pulled me against his chest and restrained me.
“Dad!” I whined then I
paled as Ava pointed her sword at my daughter.
“What are you doing?” I
asked panicking.
“I am sorry my friend. You
must trust me. This thing....Is not a child. It is vessel. And
instrument for evil. That is all. And it must be destroyed. We can
not allow it to come to full age. I can sense it. What it will
become. What it is going to do.” Ava said stepping closer to the
baby on the floor.
“No!” I screamed and
struggled but my father held me tight not letting me move.
“NO! Ava don't! She's just
a baby! Please!” I begged I had to find a way to help her before
Ava hurt her.
“It's a monster. You don't
understand. It is not good. Like you are. There is no good in it. It
is pure evil. This is not a child. You mustn’t look at it like it's
your baby. You must see it for what it truly is. I am sorry Alison. I
can not allow this thing to harm you or give it the chance to harm
anyone else.” Ava said.
“It is my baby! Ava's
she's just a baby. I bet they said the same thing about you when you
were born. And me and Connor too. We weren't natural babies either.
But because of how we were raised we turned out good. She deserves a
chance to be good. Just like we got.” I said begging for her to see
that this was just a baby. We didn't even know if she had powers yet.
All I knew is that for a split second I actually contemplated setting
Ava on fire. It was the first time I have ever thought of
deliberately hurting anyone in my family. And I knew it was because
she was threatening my baby.
“Ava wait...” Dad said
and Ava paused.
“She's right. We should at
least wait a couple days and see what happens.” Dad said and I was
relieved when Ava places the sword down “If that thing harms anyone
here then it will be on your conscience vampire.” Ava said and then
walked out of the room.
My dad released me and I
rushed over to pick up my baby before anyone else had anymore bright
idea's about killing her. I held her protectively and took her to my
room. My dad followed me into my room. I sat on the bed and he sat on
the chair watching me.
“what?” I demanded.
“I meant what I said
earlier. We don't know enough about her. I'm not leaving you alone
with her.” Dad said and I rolled my eyes.
I helped her stand on the
bed and then I taught her to bounce on the bed. She giggled happily
and I happened to see my dad crack a slight smile but then it was
gone a moment later.
The bouncing went on for a
while and then she yawned and so I put her on the bed and she closed
her eyes and went to sleep. I finally thought of a name for her.
Makayla
I was tired and went to
sleep too.
End of APOV
After and hour or so Angel
left the room and went to tell everyone that they were both asleep.
And that someone needed to be in the room at all times.
Connor went up to sit and
watch for an hour.
Connor got up from the chair
and put his hand on the door nob then he heard something. He turned
around a was a little freaked out now because the baby was sitting up
on her own looking right at him.
Now she looked like she was
12 months old. Connor stepped closer ready to remove his sister from
the bed by force and get her away from the baby. What Connor saw in
those eyes was nothing good.
He was almost to the bed now
watching the baby wearily.
Ava was listening standing
guard. She had done the same while Angel was in the room earlier.
That way she could protect them if she needed to.
Connor saw those blue eyes
look at him and he stopped and gasped. It felt as if he was having a
heart attack. His hand clutched his chest. Ava heard that and came
into the room.
She saw the child hurting
Connor. She could feel it giving him a heart attack. It was trying to
kill him!
“NO!” Ava shouted and
used her powers to fling the evil brat across the room and against
the wall. Which stopped the heart attack. Ava shoved Connor out the
door and then turned as the baby stumbled to her feet pushing the
table away from her and looked at Ava with a pout expression on her
face.
Connor told Angel about what
had happened. “Okay that's it. Maybe Ava was right. That thing is
evil.” Angel said. Sure Ali could do the same thing when she was a
baby. But the point was that she didn't. She hadn't ever tried to
hurt anyone with her power. Because she was good. This thing had
tried to kill Connor because it was evil. It may look like a baby.
But it wasn't. It was dangerous.
Alison woke up at the noise
and a look of horror came to her face when she saw her baby picking
herself up off the floor. She got up and shoved Ava “What the hell
is wrong with you!” she shouted going over to the baby.
“Alison do not! Get away
from that thing. It tried to kill Connor.” Ava informed her.
Alison picked up the baby
and then saw her father and the others enter her room.
“Alison I know what your
feeling. But you have to trust me. Trust us. That thing is evil. Look
outside. The sky is still dark. It's been dark since you went into
labor. That right there is your first sign. Second sign..Ava sensed
it. Third sign....it tried to kill Connor. It's evil. There's nothing
left to say. I know this is hard for you to accept. Just put her down
and come over here.” Angel commanded.
Alison took one look at Ava
and knew she couldn't do it. She couldn't stand aside and let them
kill her baby.
Her eyes flickered to the
window she could jump and land on her feet. And that's exactly what
she did. With her daughter held in her hands she ran and leaped out
the window. Hearing them shout at her she landed on the street on her
feet and took off running. She looked in time to see her father jump
out the window and begin to chase her. But she was ahead of him. She
took some turns trying to lose him but nothing worked. He was still
following her. She headed now towards the mountain running fast and
she used her telekinetic power to fling herself to the top and then
watched as her father began to climb.
It wouldn't take him long.
She ran and saw a small cave
she looked over the edge of the cliff and saw water below. Alison ran
into the cave and suddenly a portal opened and she saw a man standing
there. He held out his arms “Give her to me. I'll keep her safe.”
he said. He had black spiky hair and tanned skin. He was actually
kinda hot. “Who are you?” Alison asked.
“I am her father.” he
said. “I am Demetrius.” he said.
Alison looked at her
daughter and then hugged her and handed her over to the demi god.
“Her name is Makayla.” Alison said. Demetrius nodded looked at
Alison longingly and then closed the portal. And they were gone.
Alison heard her father now
and she went out of the cave. She picked up a medium sized rock and
threw it into the water below. There was a loud splash and they she
cried fake tears to help put on the show.
Angel made to her and Alison
threw herself at her father crying “Daddy...She tired to kill me! I
threw her in the river.” Alison cried hard.
Angel held onto her and
tried to comfort her. Believing that now the threat was gone and they
baby couldn't and wouldn't get the chance to hurt anyone else.
Alison was worn out and
Angel picked her up and carried her all the way home. She was
exhausted and tired of everything. Her life was filled with so much
bad luck.
Her father wouldn't lie to
her. So she knew that Makayla had tried to kill Connor. But she still
had to protect her. What harm could she do them while in the other
dimension. She wouldn't be able to hurt anyone there. And So Alison
felt no guilt for what she had done. She was sure that she would
never see either of them again. So it didn't matter anymore.

Next Time: Angel and the
gang find out that Alison lied when Alison's daughter returns. This
time Angel is less sympathetic about killing Makayla. But is the dark
child too powerful for him to destroy?
