Originally the old Victorian was home to three inhabitants: Gangrel, Edge and Christian. When Gabby came a long, a few problems began to arrive. Add two neonates and then you have a boiling pot of trouble. Subtract Gangrel from the picture, who found himself dead, tie up some misunderstandings, and you get a happy household. Matt had some problems, left, but came back. Later we found out he had a run-in with this girl Melissa, and he missed us, so he came home. I could never have been happier. Edge and Gabby had some problems, like usual. Christian didn't make things any better. Gabby and Christian had an ordeal, as did Gabby and Kael. Eventually Christian hooked up with this girl named Aspen, but she was killed when she tried to kill Gabby. Finally it was just the five of us again, and everybody was happy. We started to feel like a family again. I guess I was trying to do the right thing by brining Lily home to everybody. I figured that Gabby was lonely without a female to talk to, being the only one in a house of four boys. I wish I knew how much trouble it would cause in the long run...and how much pain it would cause.

Gabby sat, staring out the living room window at Jeff. He and his brother Matt were detailing Jeff's brand new jet black motorcycle. The two were laughing over some obscure comment Matt had made. She could hear Pearl Jam playing loudly. Gabby smiled, revelling in her love for Jeff. Lily walked across the lawn barefooted, tackling Jeff and knocking him to the grass. He laughed loudly, kissing her softly. Gabby scowled when this happened, and she got up to join them outside in the warm summer night. "Hey," Lily said sweetly, speaking to the trio.

"Hey," Matt and Jeff responded in sync. Gabby smiled.

"Lily, can I talk to you a moment?" Gabby asked.

"Sure, let me go get some shoes on," she replied, running to the house to get a pair.

"Hey Jeff, want to go see a movie later tonight?" Gabby asked.

"Well, I was going to go hunting with Lily, but after that sure. I'll ask her if it's okay. You wouldn't mind if I drag her along, would you?" Gabby shook her head.

"Of course not," she replied. 'Doesn't he go anywhere without his little crackwhore?' she thought silently.

"I'm back," Lily called, breaking Gabby's thoughts.

"Wonderful," Gabby remarked sarcastically. "Let's go," she said, grabbing Lily's arm, dragging her in the direction of the woods.

"I'm going to follow them," Matt announced.

"Why? They're just going for a walk," Jeff said.


"I don't know. I'm just getting this weird feeling about it. I don't know why, I'm just not liking this situation. Gabby was being way to nice, considering that she hates Lily." With that said, Matt ran off in the direction that Gabby and Lily went in.

"Lily, how much do you love Jeff?"

"Umm, very much. Why do you ask?"

"Just wondering. How do you know you love him?"

"I just do." Gabby shot her a look, harbouring an explanation from Lily. "Well, whenever I'm around him, I feel warm, like everything is right with the world." Gabby nodded. "Hey Gabby, are you happy?" Gabby shook her head no.

"But you know what would make me happy?" Lily shook her head. A cry rang out in the darkness as a stake found its way into Lily's thoratic cavity and thrust upwards into her heart. Lily's face contorted in pain and confusion. "Having Jeff all to myself. Having the house to myself again. Not having to share. And your death. That would make me happy." She thrust the stake in more, bending to drain Lily. As her body grew warm against the cold body of Lily, she looked up, catching the brown eyes of Matt. She read the hate and horror in his eyes. Gabby smiled to herself and cast aside the dead body of Lily as Matt ran back towards the house. She folded her arms, watching in that general direction. She licked the dripping blood off of her limps. Shortly after, Matt's body slumped to the floor, sharing the same fate as Lily's. Edge slung him over his shoulder as he walked back to Gabby. He tossed the body next to the other, locating the large pit they had dug previously. He pitched in the two limp bodies, covering the hole with dirt and twigs. After that was done, they shed their bloodied, dirty clothes and changed, burning their old ones in a pile. Arm in arm, they walked back to the house.

"Where's Matt and Lily?" Jeff asked when they arrived.

"Oh, they decided to take a walk. They were talking about going out to a club or something."

"That's odd," Jeff trailed off. He got up from the ground, dusting himself off. "Well, we were going to leave at about eight, and it's now seven thirty. If she's not back by eight, then we'll go, okay?" Gabby nodded. Edge helped Jeff put the bike in the shed.

'I guess I'll see you at eight then, because she's never coming home. And neither is that reject brother. He was of much lower quality than you. Now nobody can stand between us," she thought, a sinister smile playing across her face. She turned and ran up to her room. Jeff looked longingly at the forest, and then went up to his room to shower, change, and wait for Lily.
