The Security Room

O.o

Uh oh....

*runs out of the room*

*curls up into a blanket*

*stares at the monitors*

*spins in circles in the chair*

*falls out of the chair*

*yawns*

*curls up again, re-wraps herself in the blanket and falls asleep*

*jolts awake and stares at monintors*

Ah crap I feel asleep



What the Hell?! Why is Adden here!? SHIT!!!

*runs out of the room*

*walks in*
*sits in chair*
*looks over the room*
Hm, haven't been in here in a while. O.o

*pulls out sword*
*lays it on counter*
*watches monitors*

*falls asleep*
*head falls onto counter*
*jolts up, and falls out of chair with a loud thump*
*sword clatters on floor*
OW!!
SH**!!!
*clamps hand over mouth*
*groans*

Idiot!!

*wakes up slightly from nap and looks at monitors*

*notices a figure she's never seen before*

o.O
A new person?
I better go say hi consider those three are gone at the moment.

*leaves room and goes to walk into courtyard*

*enters after Nikki, closing door firmly*
Alright, so.
What's all this about?
I thought those three girls were the only newcomers we thought were coming...?
Then again, I haven't been here long enough to know how this family and house is run, so...
O.o

But and Rizzo seem to be... suspicious of this guy?

*sighs and sits down*

We weren't expecting anyone. He showed up unexpectedly and I figured it was better to greet him then let him creep around our home. This way we can keep an eye on him all the time.

He makes me uneasy. His looks. Mannerism. Speech.
I have no idea why. Maybe it's just because he reminds me of a man from my childhood.

I came because I think he caught on that Pandora is Rizzo's daughter. I was trying to get Pandora away from him but he must have talked Rizzo into going into the Parlor again.

With Jumpy, Scorpius, Stefan, Jackie and Crash gone right now, I know you didn't come here to be thrown into this but I, and Rizzo included, would be greatly appreciated if you could keep a special eye on him and if you find out anything to let us know.

*smiles*

*nods and listens*

*looks at her*
Nikki, this family has adopted me, and I appreciate that.
I will do whatever it takes to help out, to keep the family safe.
I'll keep an eye on him, don't worry!
*smiles back*

And would you do something in return, though?
It's a bit smaller, although sort of the same...

*smiles and nods*

If it's my power to do so, I will.

*waits for Kale to continue*

*hesitates*
*sighs*
I've noticed Rizzo has been a bit... depressed lately.
I think it's because Scorp isn't around as much as he used to be.
I'm just worries about her... She's like my daughter, as you know.
Just keep an eye on her, make sure it doesn't get worse. :/

Of course.
I give you my word.
I've noticed she has been been lately too.
I think Pandora helps and if anything happens to either of them.
Well.
They shall have to answer to me. And you. And I'm sure to the rest of the family here.

*sighs*

Shall we go back?
I feel uneasy leaving them alone with him for so long.

*nods and smiles*
Thanks, Nikki! I'm glad Rizzo has a friend like you.
I'm sure she'll be fine, but I'll have a talking to that boy next time he's around.

*helps her to stand*
I agree. Let's go...
*walks out and back towards parlor*

((Nights, everyones!))

*comes in and sits in chair*
*opens yogurt and starts to eat it*
*frowns*
My head...

*sighs and sets yogurt down*
*lays head down on counter*

*falls asleep*

*jerks in sleep*
*wakes suddenly*
Ohsh--!!

*stands and paces, rubbing hands over face*
*looks at monitors*
*bites lip and quickly leaves room*

*gives up on Nikki and comes downstairs*
*enters room, and stares at monitors*
Where is everyone?
I'm gonna go mad!

*paces length of room*

{{She was getting a bit impatient.}}

*comes in, Christian following*
Here. This is the security room, with all my monitors and such.
*sits in a chair*
*shrugs*
*thinks* I haven't been in here in a while...

-follows Rizzo-

I shall have to speak to this Melanthios if he is ever around soon.

-looks at all the monitors-
-thinks-
The camera angles I suggested would be much more beneficial to her.
-looks at Rizzo-

I see you have this place well secured. Though, I noticed I walked in with any restraint into this families yard. You allow vampires and werewolves in with no restraint. What if someone wandered in here with ill thoughts and actions for the family? How would you know? Maybe you should rethink that.
-pause-
Will you think on my suggestions?

*looks up at him*
*hesitates*

Well...
Maybe... if you would help me?
I'm kind of on my own when it comes to this stuff. I haven't had another bodyguard at my side in forever, and...

*shrugs*
You don't have to though. I know you're new here and all.
*fiddles with hands*

-raises eyebrow-

I have no objections if you need the help. Though, you may want to speak with Jumpy about it. I am not sure how excited she will be about the new-comer helping with the security system.

-looks across the screens-

-thinks-
I wonder if there is more to her memories than she remembers..

*rolls eyes*
Jumpy can get over it.
You have some good suggestions, and I need help putting them into action.
We won't tell her until she asks about it.

Everyone thinks I'm the most paranoid in the house, but Jumpy's worse than me.
At times.... but still.
*sighs*

-laughs for the first time-
-rolls eyes-

Please do not let Jumpy kill me. I swear she will because of me arriving to your room last night and now this. Paranoid. It seems that is all people are around here? Why? Why so paranoid and uptight about things around this house? People here are so lethal, deadly.

*leans forward*
*smiles, teeth glinting from light*
We're vampires, of course we're lethal.
But that doesn't mean we don't have out reasons to be frightened. We've made a lot of enemies, Christian. Many of whom would kill us, if they got the chance. Half of whom know how to kill us. Our family is fragile, as well. We're paranoid of losing one another, having the family rip apart, as it seems it might every day.

*sighs*
I guess I'm just protective because I was that way when I was a human, but it still wasn't enough.

-cocks head and listens-

I understand everything you have said. It seems pointless to live the eternal lives we may or may not have chosen with paranoia. We cannot use the human phrases of "Living life to the fullest" or "Live each day as if it was our last" because we know days will keep coming unless something dramatic would happen to end this damned life. It does not mean we cannot still take the general idea from them.

Protectiveness will never leave one. Especially if the person is a mother, it is most likely second nature.
