I sit up groggily, my head against something soft.
Mama.
I snuggle into her bosom more.

I sigh in content. So warm and soft.
I feel her chest rise and fall as fall as she breathes softly- sleeping.

A head looks down at me, Papa.
He mouths "I'm jealous,"

I close my mouth, stopping my rising laughter.

Mama stirred. She must have felt my body trembling- with laughter.

She runs her eyes with one hand, the other holding me against her breasts protectively.

"Mira?"

I start laughing- struggling for air.

When it dies down, I look at my father.
"You sleep on the same bed!"

"So, I can still get jealous, can't I ?" He says pouting.
"You're crazy," Zade pipes out of nowhere.

I flinch surprised.

"Oh, so you're back," Papa says turning around.

"Yes," Juniour says levitating to the ground.

"Good, now that we're back together, children, I can interrogate you to find out all your sins for the past half of your term," Papa says rubbing his hands together maliciously, grinning at us.

Juniour pales, I start shaking and Zade slowly starts sneaking towards the door.

Mama sighs "Stop scaring them, Vladimir,"

He starts laughing "The looks on your faces! Wait you thought I was serious?"

No, we thought you were going to kill us, I think to myself.

"Ok, what did you three do? You're acting all guilty," Papa says serious.

Juniour stares in disbelief "Did you just use reverse psychology on us?"

" In a crazy way, yes, what?" The Senior says.

Juniour stares gaping.

"Well, you see for thing I was just kidding and yet you all took it like I was about to chop your heads off," Papa sighs, shaking his head "You act guilty, so what did you do?"

"Nothing much," Zade says.

"Fine, I'll ask Lorn then," Papa says grinning mischeviously.

"NO!" The boys say together.

"Ok, then, so what did you do?" Papa says.

Vlad sighs in defeat and Papa sits smiling cross- legged in a chair.

"We'll tell you," Juniour groans.

"Do we have to stand in front of you, like we're were standing, confessing in front of an executioner, parental unit?" Zade asks.

"Sit then," Papa says.

"Where?" Zade counters "There are no ch-"

Juniour grabs his shirt sleeve and turns him around.

Suddenly, there are two chairs behind them.

"How'd you do that?" Zade asks as they both hesitantly sit down.

"You'll find out when you're older," his matter- our father- replied.

"Now....." Papa says.

Suddenly, Zade's and Juniour's ankles and wrists are strapped to the chairs.

Zade gasps immediately struggling.

Another two straps went across his chest and waist.

I cringe, trying to leave, but Mama holds me firmly.

"Father, this isn't funny," VJ says.

"I know," Papa says uncrossing his legs. "This is an exercise,"

"Forget this," Juniour murmurs, trying to free himself.

Even more straps held them both down.

Papa sighs "Honestly, would you calm down? It's not like I'm going to kill you. I might want respect from you but you have no reason to fear me unless you're disobedient,"

Juniour stopped squirming first. Two straps retracted.

He stops moving completely and starts breathing normally. One by one the straps retract, until he's free.

Juniour jumps out but is held in place by one restraint on his waist "What the-"

Papa chuckles "Patience is a virtue, my son,"

Zade follows his example but when he's free he stands slowly. He exhales.

"I'm free! In your face perverted, tentacle -like chair! In your face!"

A tentacle shoots out of the chair at Zade.

He tells and ducks behind Papa.

It follows but stops a foot or two from Papa and shrivels up.

Juniour stands slowly and stares intensely as do I.

"Patience and being calm," he says. " You need to keep your cool under any situation to be able to act. You cannot function unless you're calm, in a frenzy you can never think things through and get yourself into even more hot water. As Zade wonderfully demonstrated,"

"Hey!" Zade yelled.

We all laughed.

"So how was school?" Papa says.

"Good," Zade says cautiously.

"Are we honestly going to keep up this game of your products playing of dodging my questions, 'cause I can play all day," Papa says. "You're on holiday. School can't save you now. Speaking of which, maybe I should have visited after that incident,"

"What incident?" Juniour asks.

"Darius and Mira," Papa replies simply.

I bury my head in Mama's chest as images of the memory flicked across my mind.

She pulls me closer.

"How did you know about that?" Zade says, popping up behind Papa.

"We're your parents, we always know. I personally always know what my babies are doing. We're always watching," Mama says burying her head into my head.

"Fine, well talk but promise me first?"  Zade says.

"Ok, what is it?" Papa responded.

"Promise you won't scream?"

"When have we ever raised our voice or screamed at y-"

"Please answer the question parental unit,"

"Fine, I promise," 

"Promise you won't get angry?" 

"I promise," 

"And the last few things, promise  you won't bite, kill, strange or execute us,"

"Why would I even try to-" Papa says. 

"Answer please,"

"Yes," Papa sighs.

Zade looks at them both- our parents- breathing heavily. 

"Um... I.....uh," he stutters.

Papa says nothing but sat waiting patiently for him to start. 

"Ok, it was fun, a couple females confessed to me, a few tried to kill me, Mira got bit by Darius, I got kidnapped by The Organization, I may have put a few teens at human school in a hospital and-"

"Zade and I may have increased the school's infirmary by- hmmm, a maximum of fifteen. Oh and Mira's boarding room is in shreds. That's  about it," Juniour says interrupting Zade. 

"I had fun other than the monsters trying to est, kill, torture and/or kidnap me. I made a friend named Ika and she's shy," I said piping up.

Papa stands up and walk towards Zade.

He backs away "I thought you said you wouldn't kill me!"  he screams panicked. 

Papa manages to grab the the squirming boy. Zade stops struggling, accepting his fate- death.

Papa hugs him burying his face in his hair. I watch as Zade's face blushes as Papa whispers something to him.

He buries his head in Papa's chest.

Now, may be I should verify some things.

Some people probably think my parents are terrible and never around. Don't you even dare think  of criticizing my Mama and Papa! 

Vampire and human households  and families are completely different, especially clan vampire homes. Clan vampires reach maturity between 25-50 human years, that is, physically and mentally, but not psychologically. That age is one hundred and something, when you turn a full- fledged vampire.

Young clan vampires are unpredictable and energetic. So usually between human teen years to 50 years you get alot more freedom as you try to come to terms with your powers and who you are. Self- discovery, I guess.

They're always there when we need them. All, it takes is one word.

They're a pillar of love, support, comfort and can get a bit over protective, especially when their kids are in danger.

Instinct, I guess,

Scary instinct.

Papa let go of Zade "Ok?"

"Mmhm," Zade nodded, stepping back.

"Ok, then," Mama said clutching me tighter. 

"You have a little while until you're surprise. It's your father's idea, don't ask me,"Mama let go and tries to stand. 

I held unto her. What am I supposed to do? She's a pillow!

"Come on Mira," Juniour says grabbing me.

My head still buried in  her chest and locked my arms around Mama's body. 

Juniour lunges at me "Why won't you budge?" he says teeth gritted.

Papa tries helping "Mira let go!" 

I tighten my grip "No!" I scream in a childish voice.

What?  I'm twelve, I'm a kid. Well, I act like one sometimes.

I'm not twenty-five. I'm far from maturity.

"Mira," Juniour says through our telepathic sibling link "Let go of our mother!"

"I have to agree," Zade joins in.

"I'd you two dont leave me alone," I threaten "I'll bomb your rooms while you sleep,"

"Ok, I'm done here," Zade says out loud "Later, parental units,"

"Bye Mother, Father," Juniour heads towards the door.

Yeah, you both keep walking, I think to myself.

"Why so suddenly?" Mama says.

"Oh nothing," Zade says innocently and carefree.

"Mira!" Papa says pulling me "Let go!"

"No way on this earth," I reply.

Mama sighs. She places her hands on my waist and starts tickling me.

I laugh and let go giggling.

Papa finally yanks me off and holds me up "Are you sure you don't have vampire blood?"

"Yes," I whine.

"You do realize I want to hug the Countess as well, did anything I teach you about sharing come up anywhere in your mind?" Papa says.

"She's my mother," I hiss.

"She's my wife," Papa retorts.

"You're a possessive husband,"

"It's better than being a clingy daughter," Papa says, our argument building.

"Why are we still here?" VJ asks Zade.

"Because Dad and Mira are arguing again and the fu my parts about to come," Zade smirks.

Yup, Papa and I argue sometimes.

Suddenly, I feel a sharp sting at the back of my head and I clutch my head.

Papa does the same.

"Ow!" Papa and I say at the same time.

Mama.

Suddenly, she has a staff in her hand "Unless you two want me to hit you with this next, stop it,"

I shake my pained head and start walking away.

Zade laughs while Vlad snickers.

"You were right, that is funny," Vlad laughs.

Yup, I'm going to kill them.

I start hopping down the stairs.
My siblings both visibly cringe.

They read my mind again. Privacy means nothing to them, does it.

Zade follows me levitating while Juniour jumps off the banister, landing lightly on his feet.

Zade grabs me, still floating and flies over to where Vlad is sitting and drops me.

I stretch, then glance up feeling people are watching me.

Linus stops typing on a laptop and looks at me. The glint of the screen reflecting of his glasses.

"Mira?" Aysha says hugging me, tightly.
I can't breathe.

"Um, you're killing her," Juniour points out.
Letting go she smiles at me "I thought you were dead,"

"I'm fine," I say.

"Are you says?" Linus says.

"Yes," I smile.

"How do you feel?" He looks at me, removing his glasses.

I cock my head to one side, confused.

"What emotions are you feeling or are able to feel right now?" Linus explains.

"Nothing," I shake my head.

"What did you feel when she bit you? I need you to be honest. Were you scared or had any negative feelings prior to that?"

I think for a moment. Contentment, exhaustion.
Then when she bit me. Violation.

"Pain and betrayal. No more questions. End of discussion. I don't want to remember it anymore," I say.

"Interesting," Linus mumbles "Icarus's blood attributes are fear and guilt or rare or universal blood types,"

"Wait," Vlad butts in "I see what you men. If none of those emotions were going through Mira, that means Icarus was unable to fees off her blood attribute, right?"

"Linus nods "Correct!"

"So why the hell did she bite Mira? What was her intent?" Vlad says edgily.

"Darius Rin!" Linus yells, his pendant glowing.

Darius appears almost instantly behind him.  

"What do you want, old man?" he says rudely. 

People, note well, Linus is scary, when he's angry and even more so, without his glasses on.

His pupils turn into slits, his eyes glowing brown and he turns around slowly, putting his laptop  on Daeden's lap.

Linus glared at him.

Nate steps in "Hey guys, you won't-" he instantly cringes and backs away, his hands over his eyes "I didn't do anything! Don't kill me!" 

He disappears.

Gradually, everyone quickly disappears from that side of the room are suddenly behind the couch Vlad, Damien and I are sitting on.

"Why-" Damien starts.

"Dude quiet, Linus is angry," Jinirah hisses. 

"And none of us wanna die you young," Nate adds. 

The only people missing were Daeden, sitting on the couch, next to Linus miraculously and DJ.

"Darius," Linus says with a deadly calm "Answer me. What is Mira's blood type?"

Darius' eyes lower to the ground and he breathes out slowly "She has a rare blood type. I don't which kind but it's sweet nd addictive, you don't want to stop,"

"Thank you, now look at me,"

Darius raises his eyes to meet Linus.

I almost laugh. Other than Lorn and a rare angered Damien, Linus is the only person I've seen seen or heard of humbling Darius. He is scared of him. Revenge i sweet and I didn't even have to do anything.

"Don't you ever think of disrespecting me again and if you even think about doing that at least try to be subtle about it. I swear if you do, I will not hesitate to strap you down, like I do to those two," he indicates to my siblings "and rip your vocal cords and tongue out. Do you understand me? That warning also includes Mira,"

Darius nods. 

"Good, you're dismissed," Linus says sitting back down, taking his laptop from Daeden.

His eyes cast upon us.

"Why are you all huddled together, cringing and trembling on one side of the room behind the Main branch's offspring?" Linus lifts an eyebrow, suspicious.

"Because you cannot kill them and we are safe," Ling murmurs.

"Oh, nothing," Aysha says quickly "Just having a family hug," 

Linus' expression is unreadable "Okay, carry on,"

Gentle sighs of relief echo softly.

The tense atmosphere dissolves, but is it just me, or is it getting hot in here?

DJ walks into the room his headphones around his neck. He suddenly looks up from his iPod. "What's going on in here? It feels like a funeral," 

"It's about to be yours," a boy screams as he launches himself at DJ.

He jumps out of the way, dropping the iPod.

There is an explosion and a ring of flames around where the figure had landed. He stands up slowly- a smirk on his face, glowing because of the head and light of the flames. 

https://youtu.be/cRgPj35FZS4

His eyes are dark and his long, wild red hair with a pony tail and it seems  to glow. Dimples show when he smiled, exposing his fangs. He has rd eyes too. He steps through the flames, towards DJ but stops right next to the iPod.

"Hey kid," 

DJ watches as he steps on the device crushing it. There's a crack, cackle and sizzle as the iPod explodes into flames.

"Damn you!" DJ screams running towards the flame boy.

He opens his arms wide as an invitation. "That a boy, come at me!" 

There is a loud bass noise and I cover my ears and I cover my ears.

The boy jumps out of the way as a wave of sound crashes into a wall, destroying it .

He whistles "Nice, my turn," 

His hands explode into flames as he and DJ are locked in close combat. 

Linus is oblivious still typing away as another fire explosion erupts behind him.

The rest of us duck as  another wave  of sound knocks the attacker against the wall, cracking it with his boy, holding him pinned in place.

"Give up," DJ hisses. 

"Fat chance," is the reply. 

An explosion  hits DJ, knocking him across the room.

The boy flashes over to his body and grabs him by the neck "You're too weak," 

He walks over to us, carrying DJ's unconscious body.  

He places DJ  on the floor and sits on the couch next to Linus. 

"Dude," Zade says. 

"What's up?" he raises a hand. 

"Before you exchange pleasantries you might want to know....that the place is burning down," Vlad points out. 

Smoke start filling the room as the heat intensifies.

"No, it's not!" the boy protests. He looks around.

"Oh that burning down. Sorry," he snaps his fingers and the flames die down, even  the black scorch marks marks they leave behind start to disappear.

"Well, you certainly know how to make an entrance," I say crossing my arms. 

"How much do I score?" he grins.

"7/10," I say "including destruction," 

"I can make fire works," he bribes.

"Fine 9.5/10!" I say gleefully.

I should probably introduce this 16 year old looking boy.

Name: Zach Arnold Rin.

He's a fun- loving, easy going guy who loves a good fight. In short, it means he and Aysha win on my scale for most violent and dangerous relative- male and female category respectfully. After Aysha had destroyed that building I mentioned before, he destroyed it's twin then burnt the remains of them to the ground!

Age: 39 (or something like that) 

Personality: hot- headed (a bit literally, his hair generates heat when he's angry), thoughtful, sadistic, highly dangerous, domestic terrorist, a bit violent, humorous, insightful, arsonist, pyromaniac, insane dare devil. 

Hobbies: fighting with DJ, burning things, killing anything that messes with his family, laughing, causing chaos, watching things burn, laying in the sun.

He's my first cousin, Papa's older sister's firstborn, D.J's his younger brother.

Aliases: Heath, Fire Walker

"Dude," Nate echoes Zade.

"What?" Heath whines. 

"You didn't have to knock him around so much," Damien finishes.

"He'd do much worse to me, if I gave him a chance," Heath glares at him "Don't butt in," 

A small fire starts leaping up next to the chair.

One of Linus' hands stops typing and smacks Heath upside the head.

"Ow!" The flame dies down.

His eyes lock on me "Mira, who bit you?" 

"Icarus," I say quietly. "Speaking of which what bet did you people make on my head?" 

The place goes silent.

"Don't play dumb with me," I add sinisterly.

"Alright, who told her!" Jinirah sighs exasperated.

One of the Sirens cringe.

"Oh  come on, people," Heath says.

"What bet?"  Vlad and Alucard say simultaneously. 

"A pact about Mira's blood," Heath replies simply.

"You were in on it too!" I yell. 

He nods, murmuring something.

"That's it. Time to pull out leverage. I pull out a grenade.

It has around ten pins.

I yank one out as people start diving behind furniture for cover.

"Ok, here's the deal. This has twelve pins exactly. Each time you lie to me, you come closer to being blown up," I say coldly. "And if you even think of taking it from me or alerting our parents, I'll blow you up, before you breathe again,"

Everyone looks at me.

"Little girl, you wouldn't dare," Heath growls.

I smirk and pull out more pins. Three.  One each on three of my fingers.

"1/3 of them are gone," I say "Anymore smart ass comments?"

No reply. 

"Excellent. How many more stupid bets, have you placed on my head?" I growl. 

"A lot," Heath says vaguely.

My fingers lock around another pin. 

"Okay! Around six," Jinirah says her hazel eyes, filled with panic. 

"What do you intend to do to me?"

"Drink your blood, find out if you're a sadist, push you to your limits to find out if you have any vampiric traits....." Nate starts counting them off on his fingers as he goes.

"Drinking her blood," Linus says "Wait, what are we talking about again?"

"You're all sick!" I spit out, jumping to my feet. 

Each finger on my right hand, pulls out a pin each. 

Five come out. Three pins left.

"Hey, hormone case- I swear-" Zade starts.

"Goodbye 16th generation Rins," I smirk.

"Don't you dare!" Juniour glares at me.

"DIE!" I scream.

"Mom!" Zade

"Father," Juniour yells.

Suddenly, I'm dangling by my forearm in the air in the air as a loud explosion takes place outside, shaking the entire building.

"Vladimira Rin," Mama says sternly  her short staff in hand. I know I'm in trouble. Sighs of relief echo as my companions get up from their spots. 

"What were you thinking?" Papa says, still holding my arm so that we are at eye level.

"The entire place is surrounded by flames," Heath gushes in wonderland "Thank you, Mira," he says gleefully.

"You're welcome," I smile. 

"Vladimira," Papa says "Why?" 

"Revenge," I reply. "The attacked me and betrayed me, did you not expect me to get back at them?"

"Why did you use explosives?" Papa asks "And of all things?"

I give a half shrug, since we're levitating and my other arm is above my head.

"Where did you even get time to plan that?" Linus pipes up.

"What do you mean?" 

"Mira, why do you think we were so worried? You were asleep for four days," Linus explains. 

Wow, I thought it was two but, oh well.

"Three days twenty-three hours and fourty-five minutes, but fifteen minutes was all I needed to strategize with the arsenal at my disposal," I say "and then I fell asleep,"

One of the sirens laugh "You're crazy," 

"Hey, it runs in the family," I say, giggling as others join in.

Papa stops laughing and looks at me "Mira, no using explosives anymore. Do you understand me?"

"Mmhmm," I nod and he drops me.

"Wait that's it!" Zade exclaims.

What did you expect them to beat me? I think to myself.

"Yes, " Juniour mutters loud enough for only me to hear.

What the-? Stop  reading my mind! 

"Why not ban her from all weapons while you're at it?" Zade says. 

"Hey, I have to defend myself ou know!" I say icily.

"Whatever!" Zade scoffs.

"Enough," Mama says.

We all shut up.

"No more arguing. Am I clear?" 

"Yes, sir," we reply as she and Papa disappear.

"This isn't over" Zade and I say at the same time, glaring at each other.

I grab a chair and he grabs a vase.

At the same time DJ  wakes up and accidentally knocks Heath who bumps into Linus, almost making him drop the laptop.

I chuck the chair and throw it, Zade dodges and it hits Daeden , knocking him off the chair and he takes Linus' labtop with him. 

Linus jumps up and grabs the center table throwing it in anger. 

Damien, Ling and Juniour jump out of the way. 

Aysha gets a vase to the face as I dodge it. 

Her and Jinirah glare at Nate, thinking he did it.

A massive fight breaks out.

Zade and I stare at our handiwork, smiling.

That was how Rins bonded. 

It was unintentional, but worth it.

A/N Alright THIS IS OFFICIALLY THE LONGEST CHAPTER EVER IN VAMPIRICA! 3789 words! Thanks to  kerronnoel1*coughs* for tormenting me to update. BUT this is a double update so see you next a/n
