When we went back to Olympus we ran into the throne room. I smiled and ran over to Dad, who picked me up and spun me around. Luffy laughed and smiled as he went and sat next to Hestia. Hestia has decided to adopt Luffy and became his mother. "You look cute as a little girl." Hera cooed. I smiled widely at her and ran up and hugged her. "Thank you Auntie Hera!" I said. She smiled at me and hugged back. Soon Zeus walked in and cleared his throat. "Glad to see the two of you are back. We could use some help. In Italy there is a group of vampires that are causing a bit of a problem in Washington. I want you to go and figure out what is going on. You two will be disguised as mortals while you are there." Zeus waved his hands and my hair changed from red to black and my eyes were now green and I was shrunk down. I looked like this,
I looked over at Luffy to see that he looked the same only you couldn't see his scars anymore. "You two are now "Lily and Cory Swan. You will be staying with a man named Charlie Swan, who will be your uncle." Athena explained. I smiled at them as Aphrodite gave us each a suitcase full of clothes and they gave Luffy a credit card and a stack of papers. "Good luck." Dad said as we were sent down to JFK and got on our flight to Port Angeles, Washington.
I changed my outfit into something warm when we got ready to go on the plane.
Luffy changed his outfit to something warm as well.
"So what do ya think it'll be like?" I asked, as we got off the plane. Luffy picked me up and put me on his hip. He shrugged. "Not sure. We'll know when we get there." We went to get our bags and we saw someone holding a sign with our names on it. "Uncle Charlie?" Luffy asked. "Good to see ya Cory. This must be Lily." Charlie said with a smile. I slunk closer to Luffy, burying my face in his shoulder. "She's kinda shy." Luffy said. Charlie nodded and helped with the bags. Luffy buckled me in a car seat in the back of Charlie's police cruiser and sat next to me. "You can sit up in shotgun ya know." Charlie said as he got in. Luffy just smiled. "Rather stay back here with Lily." He said, pinching my cheek making me giggle. The drive to Forks was relatively quiet, Charlie asking Luffy a few questions about school and stuff. Once we got to the house Luffy stepped out and got me out. He carried me with one arm and held a suitcase with the other. A pretty dark haired girl came out of the house to meet us. "Who's this Dad?" She asked. "Bella, you remember your cousin Cory." Luffy waved and smiled. "Hey Bells." He said. "And this is his younger half sister Lily." Charlie added. I gave Bella a shy wave. She smiled. "Well, let me help you." She said, grabbing my purple suitcase from the back of the car. She lead us upstairs to a small bedroom with two beds in it.
"This is where you'll be staying." She said. Luffy set me down and I ran around, exploring the room. Luffy flopped down on his bed with a sigh. I walked over to him and crawled up next to him. He smiled and snuggled close to me. "I'll let you get some rest before dinner." She said, shutting the door. I fell asleep with Luffy gently rubbing my back.
Unfortunately my dream was not as peaceful. In my dream I was in this strange castle place, I tried to get away but I was chained to a wall. In front of me was this strange man who had long black hair and sickly pale skin and bright red eyes, who laughed coldly. "I've waited a while for a new play thing." He said, his voice sounding sweet, but it was cold as ice. He walked towards me and pressed a branding iron against my side. I screamed, immediately bolting awake. Luffy was hugging me tightly. "Lily? What's wrong?" Bella asked, running into the room. Right behind her was a handsome looking man with copper hair and gold eyes. I could just sob. "Bad dream. Who's he?" Luffy said, rubbing my back. "This is Edward. My boyfriend." Bella explained, kneeling next to me and rubbing my back. She noticed that I was bleeding from my side. "Cory! Lily's hurt!" She said. Luffy pulled up my shirt to reveal a brand on my right side.
Her face paled and she looked back at Edward, who looked like he was going to be sick. He looked at Luffy. "We need to take her to see my dad, now." He said. Luffy nodded. He carried me downstairs and out the front door. I heard Bella yell that she was gonna take us to the Cullen's and for Charlie to not wait up. Luffy buckled me in the back of Edward's car and got in besides me. Edward and Bella sat up front. As soon as Bella was buckled we shot out of the driveway like a bullet.
