Chapter 10

The Hilton's: Discovery

The day after Danny discovered his lost love Victoria and his mother, Danny was extremely confused on what would happen next! The following day Victoria told Danny that Athena wanted to talk and to meet her at the cemetery. When Danny reached the cemetery he found his mother weeping next to Oliver's grave.

 Athena: You named one of your sons after your older brother!

Danny: Yes....Oliver was a brave man just like my older brother as well. My older brother held the family together when you and dad where gone!

Athena: That's what I hoped for when I left! That you and the others would stick together and help each other. Come Danny, sit with me.

 Athena: It's such a beautiful day!

Danny: Mom...why did you bring me out here?

Athena: To tell you something that I've been wanting to tell for a very long time but always was afraid of what others may have thought or how they would react!

Danny: What is it?!

 Athena: I have three older brothers....all have the same gifts as I do!

As Athena looked around, she slowly fiddled with her hands, nervous to begin her next sentence.

Athena: Danny.....Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades are my brothers!

Danny: WHAT??!!! 

Athena: Long ago I placed my brothers in those sarcophagus's! I'm the one who locked them away for eternity....or so I thought!

Danny: I can't believe this! Why not tell everyone? Why not go to them and tell them to stop this madness?!

Athena: My brothers would not hear me then, why would they hear me now?!

Danny: What do we do then?!

Athena: You have to kill them....my spell to lock them away won't work on them twice! By now they would have figured out how to counter any spell of that nature!

As the day wore on, Danny was in shock that he was related to the monsters that have or were responsible for so many family members deaths!

Danny: How do I kill them?!

Athena: Long ago I learned something very important about our family line! No matter what no other being could kill us! My brothers have been in many wars, some of which they started, they have been stabbed, hanged, and numerous other ways at killing any other person! None of it ever had any effect on them or me! 

Danny: Then how am I supposed to kill them?!

Athena: This is what I've learned, days before sealing them away....only our family line, our blood line can slay each other by any means!

Danny: You mean that I or any other person with our blood ties can kill them!

Athena: Yes...

Danny: How did you learn of this? And why didn't you kill them when you sealed them?!!!

Athena began to get very upset by this question and almost began to cry.

Athena: Could you have killed your own brothers?! I couldn't bring myself to do it....I love them still! How I learned about how to kill them is not important now! Besides its a proven fact, I should know....I killed a family member days before sealing my brothers!

Danny: I'm sorry mother! 

As the day seemed to fade away, Athena soon left. Danny stood there in the cemetery, even more confused and sad! Then his phone rang, it was Dave.

 Danny: What's going on Dave? Have you found any other relatives?

Dave: I got something to show you, its kinda of an emergency that you come to me as quickly as you can!

 Dave gave Danny the address and Danny was off to see what Dave had discovered!

Danny: I'm on my way! 

As Danny arrived at the address, he was surprised to see what looked like a normal park. Danny then saw Dave.

 Dave: Glad to see you get here so quickly!

Danny: Well you said it was an emergency! 

Dave: Did I say that, I meant more of a surprise! Follow me!

Dave then led Danny to a shed, within the shed was a set of spiraling stairs.

 As they made their way down, Danny realized that the stairs led to an underground bunker! There he was lead to familiar faces!

Danny: OH MY GOD!!!

Danny was face to face with most of his surviving relatives!

 Danny then saw Javier and his grandson Richard!

Danny: Javier! Richard! You guys are alive!!!

 As Danny looked around he saw Lillian the descendent of his sister Harmony! Then he saw Harley, Sheri's own grandson!

 Then he saw Sean, the descendent of his brother Milo!

 The group stood there without any expression on their faces.

 Javier then slowly approached Danny. Then suddenly punched Danny across the face!

Dave: What the hell are you doing?!

 Javier: What the hell took you so long to come back?!!! You know what has happened since you left?! My sister is dead and god only knows what happened to Henry and Ray!

As Danny hit the floor, Javier stared at him intensely!

Danny: I'm sorry Javier!

Javier: It's not your fault Danny!

Javier then quickly helped Danny up and gave him a hug!

Javier: Zeus, Sheri, and Kalson killed them! But you took care of Kalson, now we need to get the rest!

 Danny: Glad to see you Javier! I see you got some others on our side?!

Javier: I did what I could to save the one's that refused to join Zeus!

Then Richard slowly came forward and looked at Danny.

 Richard: Hi grandpa! 

Danny: Richard! You've grown soo much! 

As they hugged Danny felt happy but guilty at the same time!

 Danny: I'm sorry Richard....for not being there for you and the others!

Richard: Don't blame yourself grandpa! What happened wasn't your fault, none of us could have seen or believed that Sheri would betray our family! But now your back! And I know that we can save what's left of our family!

 Danny: You are absolutely right Richard! Now that we are together, nothing can stop us from correcting all the wrongs that have been brought upon our family!!!

Until Next Time!!!

Chapter 9

The Hilton's: Regrets

Hours later, Kalson and Danny find there way outside. Kalson did not speak or resist any directions that Danny asked of him, almost like Kalson was in shock. Then finally, Kalson began to sob and finally started to speak to Danny.

 Kalson: Danny....

Danny: Kalson?

Kalson: I must confess that I still have so much hatred for you, nothing would give me more joy than to kill you! But....I'm done....this is the end of my journey.

Danny: Kalson, I never wanted this to happen! I just wanted peace and to be surrounded by the people I loved for as long as possible.

 Kalson: I thought I wanted that for awhile. Especially, when I met my son, I thought making him a vampire would help ease my mind and allow me the time to be a father to him. I must confess that I spent the majority of my immortality running from responsibility. I crushed dreams, hearts, and even the very essence of others to make myself feel....anything. I truly regret it all. Look at that moon, its marvelous!

 Danny: Is Victoria back in town as well?

Kalson: Yes. She came to me to collect her son, but it was already to late! I had turned him, my other son looked at me with disgust. I only hoped that Sam would remain with me, even after seeing his mother! When he chose to stay....I actually felt happy.

As Kalson walked to the other end of the garden to see the sun rise, Danny followed.

Kalson: Its been years since I've actually felt the warmth of the sun on my skin. Who would of thought that such a beautiful sight would be my undoing.

 As the sun rose more into the sky, the more Kalson began to burn. 

Kalson: Danny will you stay with me to the end?!

Danny: Yes, I will Kalson.

Kalson: Danny, I'm sorry for what happened to your sons! Zeus! He is a dangerous man! His two brothers are just as bad! And Sheri....Sheri she is just as lost as ever!

 Kalson: Damn it! My father and brother are insane with power! They will come after you and all who were involved with my demise! Danny! I'm sorr........

 Before Kalson could finish his sentence he faded away. However, Danny waited for the Reaper to appear! After the Reaper had collected the souls that had died, Danny approached the supernatural being!

 Danny: I must request a favor from you Reaper.

Reaper: A request....what will be thy payment? 

Danny: Will my immortality be sufficient payment?!

Reaper: That will be very sufficient, your immortality will be able to take my duties and set this body free to aid you with whatever request you want!

Danny: When I fully need you, can I call upon you to be there?

Reaper: Yes, your immortality will be a great reward to me! And it will allow you to become available to death! I will finally get my hands on one of the oldest souls on this world! Until we meet again....

Then the Reaper was gone as quickly as he appeared!

Later that day, Danny, Bella, and Dave came together to discuss what to do next.

 Bella: Simon and I are going to stay here in my fathers house for awhile. When ever you need us just give us a call and we'll come running!

Dave: I will stick with you Danny, maybe I'll do some snooping around and see if we have any other surviving relatives in town.

Danny: Just be careful Bella, we don't know when and how Kalson's family will react to his death.

Bella: No worries Danny, I'm sure Kalson's father is still out of town.

 As the group separated for the night, Danny found himself taking a walk to the cemetery. As he headed towards his sons grave, he saw a woman sobbing in front of Oliver's grave.

 Danny: Excuse me Miss.....

The lady slowly turned around and Danny was shocked to see Victoria! Oliver's mother, the woman who ran off with Kalson so many years ago!

 Victoria: Danny.....forgive me! Forgive me for what I've done to you and my son! I am completely sorry for all that has happened from the moment I left my one true love and my beautiful son!

As if time froze, Danny stared at Victoria. It almost felt like he was dreaming, then Victoria reached out and hugged Danny! Danny hugged her back as if she never left him at all! As they talked about the past and present events, Victoria suddenly stopped and looked at Danny with almost a panicked look!

Danny: What is it Victoria?!

Victoria: Will you come with me, no questions asked?!

Danny hesitantly nodded in agreement, Victoria grabbed his hand a took him to a house not to far from the cemetery.

 As Danny entered the house, he was greeted by a group of people he never seen before....so he thought!

Victoria: Let me introduce you to my friends and to my son!

 Victoria: This is Athena.

 Victoria: Landon and Echo.

 Victoria: And this handsome man is Harper, my son!

Echo: Nice to meet you, Danny! Come everyone, lets allow Danny and Athena to talk!

The group slowly left the room, leaving Danny and Athena all alone. Athena slowly walked toward Danny and looked at him. Danny felt like he knew her but couldn't remember.

 Athena: Danny, don't you remember me? Ha, of course you do, its me! 

Danny looked at her and realized her voice was also very familiar, finally Athena reached out and hugged Danny!

Athena: Its me! Your mother, Kitty!!!

  

Danny: WHAT?! HOW?!

Athena slowly guided Danny to the couch.

 

 Athena: Danny, I'm immortal, not exactly like you though. I was turned into a vampire a long time ago but before that I was a witch! I cast a irreversible spell that gave me the ability to walk in the sun and not require so much blood to survive! 

Danny: But you grew old and died shortly after dad did! How and why did you leave us then?!

Athena: Magic....it was all an illusion. You and your siblings saw an old woman but I never aged a day! Your father knew what I was and accepted the fact that one day I would act out my own death and leave my grown children. I went out to start a new life, like I've done so many times before. But know this I loved your father and all my children and leaving you all was like dying for real!

Danny: Then why leave?!

Athena: To allow my children to live a normal life, without the desire to ask for immortality from me. However, my wish was fulfilled by your other siblings who lived out their lives but sadly you chose a different path that has lead you here, back to me!

 

Danny: Why are you back in town mother?

Athena: To help you Danny! To finally give you peace and allow you to live a more stable life! 

As Athena stared at Danny, she slowly looked at the window behind Danny.

Athena: We'll talk more tomorrow Danny, right now you are needed outside.

 Danny slowly went outside to find Victoria overlooking the sea and in the distance you could see Bella's house.

Victoria: Danny....did he suffer?

Danny: Kalson?

Victoria: No my son, did he suffer a great deal before he died?

 Danny: No, he died instantly from his wound. Kalson was the one to really suffer in the end.

Victoria: I knew that Sam would run to his father ever since he was a child. Sam was too much like Kalson. I came here to get my son back but Kalson had already turned him! I was so angry at him but I looked into his eyes and only saw loneliness. Then to see Kalson look at Sam, I saw a spark of life. I thought I loved Kalson for a long time but realized it wasn't love, it was the gift of immortality that he gave me and then later on it was my sons! I want to kill Zeus, he is responsible for all this death!

Danny: I know how you feel but don't go in it alone! I've heard that this monster is powerful, someone we have to fight together and with a lot more help. Can you promise me that you will wait until we have a solid plan to attack?!

 

 Victoria: I promise my love.....

Danny slowly walked back to the house. Victoria slowly gazed at Danny as he disappeared into the house.

Victoria: I promise that I will end this and get revenge for my boys!!!

Until Next Time!!!
