Out of the blue Yamato tried he said something in Japanese which Sumire and her family followed but the pack was stuck and had to wait for him to finish and Sumire to translate for them.

"Lyall please tell me what happened, trust me you'll feel a whole lot better when you tell, trust me I'm family" said Yamato in Japanese which Lyall followed perfectly and in turn he said in English "it was a lady with blazing red hair and green eyes like Luna's and mama's, she dressed in a police uniform, Unmei said it was the police officer that had helped her" and he said nothing more due to having his father transform right in front of everyone howling as he went.

"Oh no, we have to calm him down otherwise he's going to tear this parlour apart, now everyone stop your Alpha" shouted Sumire but it took all the pack just to block his way so then Sumire could touch him.

"He may be Alpha but he's not as strong as Conall" said the professor as he walked in, in nothing but a trench coat at most, "why Lyall what brings you here" said Sumire sarcastically towards the ex-beta.

"Later my Lady I think you should turn back to what is at hand, your husband" said the professor pointing out that he needed to be turned back before he hurt someone.

In one fell swoop she had touched her husband and kept a hold of him so then he could turn back "I'm going to get that...", "Sandalio remember the children as well as my parents and brother, I don't want you to use that language here but until later when it is called for, in the right place that is" said Sumire, he stopped but he still wasn't calm enough to let him go.

"That dear sister of mine was disgusting to watch and hear, please tell us more on this matter" said her brother he said nothing more when Sumire said "later my dear brother, later first we have to find out where Janice Stevens has gone with my child".

Biffy looked up right away when he noticed a scent wafted though the parlour "my dear Lord welcome to our home" said Biffy wanting to get up but was pulled down by Sumire and was thrown a cover by Elijah and the same moment that Lord Akeldama walked through the parlour doors.

"Why my spring petals what has gone on here then" said Lord Akeldama making both the children head towards him and touching him as they went turning him mortal there and then.

"Sweet peas, I know something is amiss but I do have my darling little droney-poos on to this matter. But onto a different topic, if you may follow me to mine" he said the last with such authority that everyone including the whole pack followed him into his home.

"Well I must say this is more than what I asked for but please sit down" said the vampire holding Lyall and Unmei on his lap with Sumire and Biffy flanking him on either side, Biffy was now calm enough to be trusted.

"I say my blossom your missing a child and you're not happy about it..." she shot him a glance that said 'hurry up and say something or I'm dragging you out into the sun at high noon' and so he continued.

"...my precious darling droney-poos saw something that was quite out of the ordinary even for us" and he winked to her making her smile slightly, but her mother had other things to get off her chest.

"For god's sake say something more than just that, stupid man" said Hikari in one complete breathe that would rival Sumire but it lacked something that the vampire found amusing and so he smiled.

"Sumire petal you didn't tell me your mother was like this, she's nothing compared to you and my darling Alexia" and he laughed. "Akel, what can you do about Luna?" asked the two children on his lap, one of which was braiding his hair.

"Well I think I know where they have gone, here is what you need" and he handed over some paper on which had instructions on, which lead them to a flight plan and nothing more besides a small print that said 'head west' and nothing more.

Sumire got up and headed out having the pack follow her, Biffy and the children where last to leave and poor Biffy had to almost push Hikari and Yamato out of the parlour so then they could leave but Jiro stayed and said quietly "you knew Alexia, I hope you take care of my daughter the way you did with my great-great-grandmother" and in the end he left.

Back in Sumire's everyone was flying about because Sumire had worked out the cryptic message of Lord Akeldama, the oldest vampire in London, England. "We head to America to find Luna and to find Janice Stevens. She's got a head start but I know we'll find them" shouted Sumire like a drill sergeant.

"Well she never got this from me" said Hikari and Jiro together making Yamato sigh but he noticed that both Lyall and Unmei looked awfully pale and placed a hand on his sister and asked her the question "what has happened to those two?" pointing to the children who were now playing in the back parlour that they were left in.

"They have the ability to take any supernatural state that they touch and it just happened to be Lord Akeldama who happens to be a vampire and as you saw earlier I'm a werewolf and I'm sorry that you had to see that" said Biffy as his wife was busy.

Sumire stopped what she was doing and looked towards her brother and her husband and once Biffy noticed the glare on his back he turned towards her. "Sumire darling should we tell them the whole truth or should we leave it until later? It's up to you what we do now" and he smiled towards her and in turn she sighed.

Elijah brought everyone to the front parlour while Sumire told the pack and the staff what they needed for the trip and who was going to be in charge while they were gone.

In the parlour everyone was waiting for Sumire so then everything could be explained to them, which Sumire really didn't want but she knew it had to be done, it was a matter of life and death on her part, her child was at stake.

When Sumire finally came through the doors she was met by her brother, "Yamato Tadase Sakurai move out of my way right now" snarled Sumire who in turn backed away and sat on the sofa with his parents.

Everyone was there, her parents: Hikari and Jiro, her family: Biffy, Lyall and Unmei, the professor: Randolph Lyall and lastly the butler: Elijah and pack Beta: Channing.

"Well most of you know what I'm going to say but this is mostly for my parents and brother but I also think that my father already knows what I'm going to say otherwise he wouldn't of let me leave Japan" and she smiled towards him and he smiled back.

"I'm a Preternatural, which means that I can take a supernatural's ability and turn them mortal, meaning that a transformed werewolf will become a human again as well as a vampire will have more colour and will show a much older state then they look like. This is so annoying to try and explain" said Sumire to them.

"Well my Lady why don't you show them what you mean? I think the young miss and master would be a good example to begin with and if not I'll transform" said Channing making everyone look at him mostly with shock and two confused faces mixed in there.

"Why Channing what a perfect idea" said Biffy towards him and encouraged his wife to do this. "Well Sumire, my darling, my world it's the best that we have now to explain this to your mother and brother" and she just nodded to him and said quietly "Lyall, Unmei come here please and stand in front of your grandmother and uncle please".

They did as they were told making her family wonder what she had said to the two children but when they stood there they knew something was about to happen.

"Mother, Yamato, this is what I can do, I get this power from Alexia Tarabotti Maccon, my great-great-great grandmother who lived in Victorian times and I'm on the Shadow Council to the Queen of England along with Lord Akeldama. Please just watch" and she touched her two children right in front of them.

It only took a second but to them it all happened in slow motion, firstly the ashen white colour in their cheeks where replaced with rosy colour, the fangs that they could see grew upwards towards their gums and finally became normal baby teeth.

They were in shock at this until Jiro laughed "it's been a very long time since I saw this, I knew the moment that you were born that you took after me, it is said that most Preternatural's can't stand to be in the same area but with you I knew but for some reason I felt fine with you, no sickness at all".

"What do you mean by this Jiro Kaoru Sakurai?" asked Biffy and Channing at once, but Sumire laughed because she knew what her father was on about, "father please just show them" she said and right away he got up and touched both of them turning them mortal.

"I come from the Maccon line, or should I say the Tarabotti line, my great-great grandmother is Prudence Alessandria Maccon, daughter of Alexia and Conall Maccon. Unlike my daughter and grandchildren I'm restricted to NOT choosing who I turn mortal, she is the only one who does along with the children" and he left go and they turned supernatural at once.

"Father that is just strange, who knew something so strange could come out of our family" said Yamato making both his father and sister turn to him giving him the same look.

"Yamato why don't you try, you have my blood in you like your sister?" said his father making him get up and walk over to Biffy but Lyall got there first and bumped right into his father turning him mortal and him into a wolf cub.

"Damn" said Biffy "Lyall get back here right now" and with that a light honey wolf was chased after by his father. "Lyall!!" shouted Biffy again and they were out of the parlour in an instant, making Sumire and her father sigh along with Unmei, Randolph Lyall, Channing and Elijah.

"As you just saw my children can take the supernatural state and become them, like earlier Yamato said that they looked pale, they had touch Lord Akeldama who is a vampire what you saw was me changing them back to humans.

When they touch part of the pack like Channing here, or their father, they turn into wolves like you saw, turning the supernatural human until I touch them".

As she said that Biffy came in holding Lyall in his arms who was turned in his arms staring at him with yellow eyes, communicating a message to him. "Sumire, if you may" said Biffy and she got up and walked over to her husband and touched her son transforming him back, he was unhurt and was laughing, "papa that was fun can we do that again next time" asked the child who was now in his mother's arms.

"Maybe son, maybe" and Biffy handed over his clothes to his wife and right away got her son dressed.

"I think that explains everything Biffy, if you don't mind I have to head back to Scotland, thank you again for your time, my Lady" said the professor and he bowed to Sumire and quickly left the parlour only to change into a wolf by the time he hit the front door.

"Why did he call you Biffy, Sandalio?" asked Hikari as she finally got over the shock of everything, he just turned to Sumire and she smiled "now it's your turn to explain my dear" he sighed and said "Rabiffano is my last name and when I was with Lord Akeldama hoping to become a vampire, back in the old days if I can call it that..." he laughed slightly at the thought of it all "... Lord Akeldama gave me the nickname and it stuck for almost 200 years.

Sumire started calling me Lio because she didn't like the nickname she wanted her own one. As you know my full name is Sandalio de Rabiffano, Biffy is for old friends and pack members while Lio is just for Sumire, but I would like to be called Sandalio if you may" and with that he walked out muttering something about the sun coming up.

"I'm sorry my dear family but it's almost sun up and here in this house, due to almost everyone being of supernatural state we sleep during the day and are up all night. Lyall, Unmei it's time for bed" said Sumire to her parents and then her children.

Right away the children got up and yawned and then almost fell asleep but were caught by Elijah who just carried them out of the parlour and up towards bed.

"Mother, Father, Yamato I'll personally show you to your rooms" and she gave them the Alexia look that she was famous for but she quickly turned it around and smiled very sweetly towards them.
