McKensie and Lara
Damon felt ridiculous! Like a newborn he was learning how to use his body again. Feeling her hand did give him some comfort he focused using everything he had to move his finger against her hand.James nodded with a grin "it's really just a false image anyway! They still are doing everything we do!"
Lexi smiled a little and nodded. "That's it!" She said, excited. "You're moving!" She praised, excited even by the smallest of movements. Mark laughed softly. "Exactly. Who's to say we aren't the popular crowd?" He grinned. Then he paused, a thought entering his mind. "How come you guys are demons and I'm human? How do you become one or the other?"
Damon would have rolled his eyes if he could have, moving a finger was exciting?! He couldn't take feeling trapped in his own body so he slowly morphed into his demon phase and curled up able to move freely.James looked at London "well Loo was born an angel...but angels and demons can't touch...so we had to be seperated...when she was old enough I turned her into a demon like me...you become a demon when one turns you!"
Lexi had to admit that she was a little shocked at seeing his demon form. She had forgotten what it looked like, it had been so long... She quickly got over her surprise and hugged him gently. "It'll be alright." She promised. Mark nodded slowly, mulling over that. "So... could you... could you make me a demon?" he asked softly, looking up at him.
Damon looked at her with his glassy black orbs they looked sad, or scared even. He nuzzled his huge black head against her.James blinked definitely not expecting that "well um...yeah but..." He stuttered trying to explain "it's not just wings...you have to leave your family..."
Lexi sighed softly, running her hand gently over his head. She held him against her, closing her eyes. "I'm so sorry this happened to you Damon. I really am. You should have movement again in 24 hours. That's what Anne told me." She said gently. Mark chewed his lip, deciding. "So, maybe change me when I'm a little older?" He asked hopefully. "I don't mind leaving my family. But I want a little more time with them." He said honestly.
Damon nodded his head in understanding and picked her up by the back of her shirt and flew them home.James nodded with a smile "yeah! I'll have more experience then...and more control...just um stay away from Dem he hates humans..."
Lexi was surprised again, by how he chose to pick her up, but she didn't object. She was a little worried however, that he would lose control again in this form. She trusted him, but she was also cautious. She took great pains to hide any unease. Mark frowned a little. "Dem? Why? What did we ever do to him?" He asked.
Damon lay her gently on the bed and stepped back worried about the same thing, he never stayed in control! He stepped further back into the walk in closet which surprisingly for him! Different clothes fell on top of him but he could watch her but not be near her.James sighed "Demons are naturally supposed to hate humans...make their lives hard or kill them, me and Loo and my parents are the weird ones that don't...Demetri's dad is the most powerful demon there has ever been and he's getting up there..."
Lexi smiled at him gently, his comical appearance with clothes piled all on him eased the mood a little. She sat up and hugged her knees to herself, watching him, worried. Both worried, for him, and worried about what she would do if he did lose control. Taylor started crying in the other room at that moment, and Lexi got up. "I'll be right back." She said, quickly grabbing Taylor and bringing her back into their room, where she rocked her. Mark frowned a little more. "Well that's stupid. But I understand... I guess." he said, sighing. "When I'm a demon he'll like me more I guess."
Damon stiffened he could keep control using everything he had, but Taylor! She brought the beast out and he quickly left the closet and motioned for Lexi to lock her and Taylor in their room.James nodded "yeah, he's just kind of...edgy one of my best friends but...it's hard to get to know him."
Lexi paled a little, nodding in understanding. She waited until he had left the room before locking the door and retreating to the bed. Had Taylor caused him to slip? Lexi started to feed her to keep her quiet, hoping he would forget they were in here if he lost control. Mark nodded in understanding. "It's alright. I'll get used to him." he said, trying to be positive.
((leaving for a bit now. Might be on later tonight, might not idk))
((Alright see you :) ))Damon felt like his brain was being crushed trying to keep it in, but he couldn't he lost it going to the ceiling and trying to tear it apart but it was indestructible from the remodeling. That frustrated him so he ripped up the stairs and bannister tearing apart the kitchen looking for food.
James grinned "man school is over already! That was fast!"
Lexi flinched each time a crash erupted from down stairs, and she closed her eyes, trying to breathe deep and calm down. Taylor started to cry again and Lexi stiffened, trying desperately to get the baby to quiet. She eventually got her to feed again, but she had been crying for a while now. Lexi's heart was pounding hard, hoping that Damon hadn't heard. Mark and London nodded in unison. "No kidding." Mark said. London smiled softly. "I'll be happy to go home." she said honestly.
Torch drove up to the front of the school, waiting outside for his kids.

Damon heard the crying and instantly started to search for where it came from, the lock he put on their bedroom however was like a spell and he couldn't enter no matter how hard he tried. He roared frustrated and flew out of the house to the skies.James grabbed his pack and waved goodbye to Mark, he saw Demetri standing by himself looking oh so peeved off "you ok?"
Lexi wrapped her arms around Taylor protectively when Damon started tearing at the door, but he didn't seem to be gaining any purchase. Then the house went silent.... he had left. Lexi froze. He couldn't go outside! Not like that! Someone would see him! Or worse, he could see someone... and cause a great deal of pain. Lexi unlocked the bedroom and carried Taylor gently to her crib, she lay her down and shut the bedroom door, before taking off on her own wings, and flying after Damon. He was only a small speck in the sky, but she was growing closer. She had to bring him back before he hurt someone. Dem shook his head, wringing his hands. "Dad left me here all day, and he isn't even here to pick me up!" he protested. "He was supposed to take me to hell!"
Damon growled his stomach rumbling, he landed in a pasture of cows and started tearing them apart nothing left but the grass...still hungry! He let out a screech and took to the sky again.James frowned "you could ride with us and my dad could take you to hell? Maybe something happened and he couldn't make it?"
Closer... closer... Lexi was close enough to watch him devour a who herd of cows like they were nothing but an appetizer to him and she gulped, increasing her speed. Tucking her wings against her sides, she shot forwards and barreled into him, her arms wrapping around his torso. "Damon!" She cried. "Snap out of it!"Dem sighed heavily and managed a smile. "Thanks." He said, hopping into the car with them. "I don't know why he wouldn't come.... I didn't think anything else would be more important to him..."
They both went crashing to the ground and he was about to attack but the guilt from the last time he hurt her took over and he bowed his head ashamed whimpering and shaking his head.James frowned and looked at his dad "can you contact Damon?...he was supposed to pick up Dem and go to Lukas' place!"
Lexi took his face in both of her hands and made him look at her. "Hey..." She said softly. "Come on. Come back to me." She coaxed, hoping to get Damon back in control of this form. She kissed his forehead. "Come back."Torch nodded, frowning in worry. He tried to contact Damon, but his mind met a wall. "Apparently not. He's in his demon form." He explained. "Dem, you can come to our place while we figure out what is going on."
((Heading to bed now :P G'night :) ))
Damon huffed smoke coming out of his nostrils he nodded again acknowledging that he was in control and he wasn't going to fight her. He lay down resting his head on his claws and huffed again...he was still hungry!James nodded "you can play in our treehouse!" He tried to get him excited but he could tell Dem was really upset and disappointed "he's in his demon form...that means something happened beyond his control!"
((Goodnight :) ))
Lexi sighed in relief and let him go, resting back on her hands. He looked so pitiful, all hunched like that. "Do you need something?" She asked softly, brow knit with worry.Dem chewed his lip in worry. "Out of his control? Mom and Taylor might not be ok!" He exclaimed. "I have to go check on them!"
Damon raised his eyes to look at her and nodded, but how was she supposed to know? He used his sharp claw and drew in the dirt a pitiful excuse for a cow but he hoped she understood!James frowned "dad can we stop by their house first?"
Lexi bit her lip and looked at the drawing. He was hungry ? But her just ate a whole feild full of cows! How was she supposed to find enough food for him when he was that hungry? Magic. It was the only way. Lexi made a generously proportioned stack of steaks appear near him. "Tell me when you are full." She said, ready to replace the steaks when he was done them.Torch nodded and pulled into Damon's driveway. Dem ran out and upstairs. He was gone for a moment, and when he came back he looked panicked. "Mom and Dad are gone!"
Damon's tail wiggled happily and he gobbled them up quickly, in three more refills he let out a demon like burp and settled back on his claws finally content.James looked at the house with wide eyes "did a hurricane come through?!"
Lexi chuckled, shaking her head slowly. "You really are a strange demon, you know that?" She asked, watching him. She almost felt like she should be petting him and talking to him like one would a puppy, and not her husband. Torch looked around and shook his head, sighing. "No. Damon did."
Damon raised a brow at her and gave her a toothy grin that one might think was frightening but it wasn't intended to be. He huffed wanting to phase back but he couldn't till the alloted 24 hours were through.James frowned not understanding "why?"
Lexi's smile widened and she walked over to sit beside him. She plopped down cross legged and leaned her head against him, sighing softly. "And I love you just the same." She whispered, tipping her head back to smile up at him. Torch scraped the back of his neck with one hand. "Well... that's because Damon kind of loses control whenever he becomes his demon form..." He explained.
Damon gave another toothy grin and bumped his head against her and drew a heart with his claw.James frowned upset and looked at Dem "looks like your dad had a good reason not to pick you up!"
Lexi flushed a little. Smiling, she wrapped an arm around him. "Aw, aren't you a softy." She cooed, sighing happily. "We should head back... Taylor's at home alone, and Dem will be done school now."Dem nodded slowly, his mouth hanging open. He couldn't believe his dad could cause this mess... "I guess so..."
Damon frowned worriedly, could he handle being with his kids? Especially little Taylor...her cries sent him off and there was no control at all! He eyed Lexi wondering what she thought.James took his hand and squeezed it "I think your room is still ok!"
Lexi looked at him for a moment, as if trying to understand what he was thinking. When she guessed, her shoulders slumped a little. "I dont want to leave you... but the kids cant be by theirselves either!" She groaned. "What am I supposed to do?"Dem nodded, looking rather sick. "I shouldnt have gone to school today... I could have helped out somehow! I should have been here." He said softly. He looked like he was about to cry.
Damon motioned for her to get on his back and he flew them home, the demon construction workers were already starting to rebuild everything and he crouched down in the backyard away from the kids but still near her.James hugged him hoping he wouldn't cry, he smiled pointing to them just arriving "there's your mom!"
Dem lit up instantly. "Mom! Da--" He stopped short in the doorway, not sure what to think of the creature that had landed in his backyard. Lexi climbed on and held on tight as he flew them, smiling in excitement. When they got back, Lexi slid off his back and smiled her thanks to Damon, before running to Dem and scooping him in her arms. She held him close and kissed his hair.
Dem frowned a little. "Is that Dad?" He asked softly, curious.
Lexi nodded. "Yes. It is. That's his demon form honey." She said softly.
Dem couldn't stop staring. He smiled a huge smile. "Am I going to look like that!?" He asked hopefully.
Damon worried that Dem was scared of him, till he saw the grin and huffed out a sigh of relief he still needed to stay away though...his demon form saw him as a tasty snack!James was terrified of the demon and clung onto Torch hiding his face in his shirt.
Lexi laughed softly and shrugged. "Maybe." She promised. "You never know. But right now we need to get you inside. Do you have homework?"Dem nodded and huffed. "I just have to read this baby book."
Lexi set him down. "Well go on then. Read it in your room and tell me what it was about after.
Torch hugged James against him, whispering that it was alright. He shot a smile at Damon and waved, before walking back out to the car where London had been waiting. "Well I guess that settles that." he said, smiling. "You kids have a good day at school?"
Damon nodded at Torch and watched Dem huff up the newly built stairs, that kid was too smart for his own good!James shrugged "My friend wants me to turn him when he gets older..."
Lexi checked on Taylor, who was thankfully still sleeping in her room, before looking in at Dem as well. He was reading, and looking like he was enjoying it alright, but he was flipping through the pages like it was in fact a baby book to him. Lexi sighed and closed his door softly again before walking back out to Damon. She sat infront of him and pinched her temples. "What are we going to do? I am such a horrible parent. I get you drugged, and cause our daughter to inherit powers that almost killed my friend, and then Dem is so smart I don't even know what to do with him!" She held her head in her hands and sighed heavily. "I don't know Damon. I'm not good at this."Torch nearly slammed on the breaks in shock, but he managed to keep enough control to continue on. "What? James... humans shouldn't know about us! None the less be asking to be a demon!" He said seriously. "Turning your friend is not your choice to make, nor theirs. Who ever this child is, they are still under the care of their parents. You can't turn your friend. For their safety and yours, ok?"
Damon shook his head disagreeing and nudged her wishing he could tell her everything on his mind. He hoped their mind connected still with the bond 'no, you are a perfect mom, you have the protective instincts and are so selfless....'James said nothing, he made a promise and it would be when both of them were older so what would be the problem "you turned mom..."
Lexi bit her lip and looked up at him. "That may be. But... I've caused so much trouble for you." she said, shaking her head. "It just seems to me that I'm the reason our life is always riddled with troubles." she said, clasping her hands in her lip. Her forehead wrinkled and she closed her eyes. One tear broke away and ran down her cheek. She shook her head, staring at her lap. "If you had been with someone else, then maybe you could have had a more peaceful life. Free of trouble. You could have been happier." Torch sighed softly. "Yeah, but that was different. She didn't have family she was leaving behind. She was a grown woman." He tried to explain.
Damon shook his head with a small growl and stomped his claw 'no! I would still be a heartless killing machine that killed for pleasure! Nothing would have changed, Torch and Mae wouldn't be together and the whole series of Hell would shift!'James frowned "Mark said he was fine with leaving his family when he was older I told him all of this!"
Lexi opened her eyes again and looked up at him, two more tears rolling down her cheeks. She waited a moment before draping her arms around him and burying her face against him. She kissed what she thought was his cheek and hid her face again. "You deserve better than me." She mumbled. Torch paused, not sure what to reply to that. "Not before you're sixteen. Ok?" He asked.
Damon shook his head and licked her face lovingly. Just a few hours before he was a human with a working coherent body and mind. He wished she wouldn't think like that...James nodded "got it, then I'll have more control! Mark could get his demon form right?"
Lexi grimaced and then laughed, wiping off her face with the back of her hand. "Demon slobber!" she exclaimed, wiping it on the grass. "Does that count as a kiss?" She asked, raising an eyebrow. "I'm just kidding. I love you." She said, leaning her head on his shoulder. Even if she did think poorly of herself still, he had effectively raised her spirits and caused her to forget. Torch smiled then, a little more encouraged. "Exactly." He said, pulling up in front of the house. "Let's go see how Mom and Zach are doing." He suggested, walking in the house. "We're home!"
Damon let his tail wiggle happily and looked up at Dem's window he looked at Lexi wondering how his son was, he knew he disappointed him...Mae looked up raising an eyebrow" it's 4 hours after school!"
Lexi smiled and ran her hand over his head gently. "Dem's doing just fine. He wants to be exactly like you, you know that? You're a regular hero." she said, smiling at him. Torch smiled sheepishly. "Sorry about that. Damon went demon and tore up their house, and I had to drive Demetri home from school." he explained. "Yes. Everyone is alright."
Damon frowned worriedly 'I know that's what I worry about...he's acting like how I was...he doesn't like humans and he thinks he's superior...'Mae sighed "oh dear...why did Damon turn demon? Is Lexi and the kids safe for now?"
Lexi sighed softly. "He is a demon... isn't that only natural?" She asked softly. "Will it end up causing trouble?" She asked. Torch shrugged. "To be honest, I don't know. He was still a demon so I couldn't ask." He explained. "He seemed enough in control though, and Lexi was just fine last I saw her."
Anne sighed. "Just enough to wake him up honey. I'm afraid the rest of the effects take time to wear off."
Lexi nodded slowly, squeezing Damon's hand gently. "I'm here for you." she promised.
Mark sighed and ruffled his hair, shrugging. "Not part of the popular crowd though." He said, sighing. "It's alright. I've got you guys. I don't need them."
