《Protect Our Own: Sequel to Protect Each Other》Chapter 1: Yes!

We're not gonna take it (no!)
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore (just you try and make us)
[Y/N] laughed as she sat on the couch, watching Paul and Marko dance around to Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It". After feeding at the Boardwalk, the boys and their lady headed back to their cave. The cave was their safe place. A place where they could party all night, and sleep all day. The cave, which they had made their own, used to be a hotel in Santa Carla. When the San Andreas Fault struck, the hotel fell into the ground and was destroyed. When it was discovered by David and the boys, they had made it their home. David and Dwayne were sitting on either side of the girl on the couch, also watching their brothers dance. [Y/N] sighed and smiled lightly. She looked over at the empty part of the cave. A year ago, there used to be a girl named Star and a boy named Laddie who stayed with [Y/N] and her boys. Star and Laddie had been half-vampires that had been turned by David. No, he did not bite them to turn them. They were turned by drinking David's blood. Only by killing the Head Vampire, the Sire, would all half-vampires be returned to their previous human forms. When [Y/N] managed to kill the Sire with her powers and with help from her boys and some humans, did Star and Laddie return to being human. In all honesty, [Y/N] missed the two being in the cave. Star and Laddie had been like a sister and brother to [Y/N]. It seemed, empty without them there.
We're not gonna take it (come on!)
No, we ain't gonna take it (you're all worthless and weak)
We're not gonna take it anymore (now drop and give me 20)
The song came to an end and Paul walked over to the stereo that played the music, turning it off. The two boys walked over and sighed as they sat on the couch. Dwayne looked over at [Y/N], seeing a frown on her face. Dwayne frowned lightly and gently brushed some hair from her face, making her look at her lover.
"You okay, Sweetheart? You seem a little down." He said. This cause the other boys to look at their lady in worry. [Y/N] sighed and rested her head against Dwayne's shoulder, placing her hand in David's, playing with his gloved fingers.
"I, I just miss Laddie and Star. It feel so empty without them here," she sighed sadly. "I guess I got so used to them being here with us that I didn't realize how much I would miss them when we killed Max." She said. Dwayne sighed and nodded. He understood the feeling. Laddie had been like a younger brother to him, to all the boys. Out of all of them, Laddie had the strongest bond with Paul and Dwayne. Laddie had been the one to ride with Dwayne when they went out to the Boardwalk some nights, since Dwayne was the most careful driver of the four boys. Dwayne nodded, kissing [Y/N]'s head.

"I know what you mean, [Y/N]," he said quietly. "I miss them to. Mostly Laddie." He said, making [Y/N] chuckle. A moment of silence passed between the group before Marko broke it,
"Well, why don't we see how they're doing." He said. [Y/N] looked at the male and smiled.
"I honestly almost forgot I could do that," she said. She leaned up from Dwayne's shoulder, letting go of David's hand. She sat forward and sighed, closing her eyes. When she opened them, her normally [e/c] eyes were glowing red. She lifted her hands and made a circling motion. She willed her powers to come from within her soul and out her fingers. Not only was [Y/N] a Vampire, but she also had powers. All Vampires had powers, mostly being able to make someone see what said Vampire wanted that person to see. That was David's favorite thing to do, was mess with people. His most famous trick was making someone think that Chinese rice were maggots. He always got a kick out of seeing a person's reaction. [Y/N]'s powers, which she was born with, manifested in a sort of red mist. In the past, when [Y/N] got too emotional, her powers would have a mind of its own, bursting out of the woman and protecting her from anything that would hurt its host. Now, [Y/N] had much better control over her powers. Still circling her hands, her powers formed into a sort of mirror. The red mist slowly moving around. With one hand still raised, she moved one hand, extending her index and middle fingers and tapped the center of the mirror. The mirror made a ripple. "Show me Star and Laddie." She commanded. The mist, on both the top and the bottom of the mirror folded in, creating a tight circle before flowing out again to its original spot. An image of Star appeared. She was sitting next to Michael Emerson, her lover, on the couch in Michael's house. They were sitting there, smiling, content. Watching a movie. The mist again, folded in and wafted out. A new image of Laddie Thompson, now Laddie Emerson, having been officially adopted by Michael and his family. Laddie was sleeping in his bed, holding a stuffed bear close to him. It had seemed that Laddie had gotten used to sleeping at night and being awake during the day after spending so much time as a half-vampire. [Y/N] smiled, content with seeing that both Star and Laddie were safe and in good hands. With a wave of her hands, the mirror gently flowed out of the circle and back into her hands, finally disappearing. She sighed and sat back against the couch again. Dwayne smiled.

"I'm glad Laddie's safe." He said, the others nodding in agreement. David sighed and sat up. It was nearing dawn, and he was starting to feel tired. He knew the others were feeling it as well.
"Well, I guess now is a better time than any," he said. He looked at the boys. They knew exactly what David meant. The only one being left in the dark was [Y/N], who looked at David in confusion.
"What do you mean?" She asked. David sighed in slight nervousness. He stood up from the couch, and turned, looking at [Y/N]. He took [Y/N]'s hand, making her stand. He squeezed her hand in nervousness. This was extremely out of character for David. He was never nervous. [Y/N] furrowed her eyebrows. "David? What's wrong? Are there more hunters in Santa Carla? A rival Coven?" [Y/N] asked urgently. David chuckled and shook his head, silencing his lady with a kiss. David stroked [Y/N]'s cheek as the two pulled away.
"No. Nothing like that, Pretty Girl," David said. He cupped her cheek, running his thumb along her flawless skin. [Y/N] leaned into his touch, looking into his eyes.
"[Y/N], since the first day we, the boys and I, met you, we knew you were the one for us," [Y/N] smiled sweetly. Her eyes widened. No one started making a speech about love unless...no way! David smiled. "You are our Mate and we are yours. There is one thing, however, that would make us the happiest undead men on earth," David said. Tears started coming to [Y/N]'s eyes. She truly hoped this was going where she thought it was. Suddenly, all her boys were down on one knee before her. [Y/N] covered her mouth, holding back a sob. David reached into the pocket of his trench coat and took out a small case. David looked at her and held the case in his hands. "[Y/N], will you allow us the extraordinary honor, of not only allowing us to call you our mate, but also allowing us to call you our wife?" David asked. Tears were now streaming down her cheeks. Not trusting her words, [Y/N] nodded, sniffing. The four boys seemed to relax. Dwayne looked at his lady.
"Truly?" He asked. [Y/N] laughed and sobbed, nodding.
"Yes!" She shouted. Paul was the first to react, jumping up and pulling the woman into a hug, swaying side to side, pressing a kiss to the side of her neck.
He pulled away as Marko walked up, pressing a kiss to [Y/N]'s forehead and pulled her into a hug as well.
Marko pulled away as Dwayne picked [Y/N] up in a hug, spinning her around and making her laugh.
When Dwayne put her down, he pressed a kiss to her lips. Pulling away, David walked up and gently cupped her cheeks, pressing his lips to hers.
Pulling away, David smiled at her. "Would you like to see the ring, Pretty Girl?" He asked, still having his hands resting against her cheeks. His thumbs gently brushed some tears that fell. Chuckling and sniffing, [Y/N] nodded. David smiled and pressed a kiss to her forehead before pulling away. He took the case out of his pocket again and opened it. [Y/N] gasped, looking down at the ring that sat in the case. It was a beautiful ring with a simple silver band, a sapphire stone sitting perfectly in the middle.
David carefully took the ring out of the case and took her hand. He slipped the ring onto the ring finger of her left hand. It was a perfect fit. [Y/N] lifted her hand, examining the ring. Dwayne walked up, wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Do you like it, Sweetheart?" He asked. [Y/N] let out a chuckle.
"I, I love it," she breathed. "I just have one question." She said. Marko walked over, taking her left hand and pressing a kiss to the back of it.
"What's that, Baby?" He asked. [Y/N] looked at her boys.
"Did you all actually buy the ring, or did you guys steal it?" She asked. The group descended into silence. Paul cleared his throat, scratching the back of his head.
"Um, about that."

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it.

Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
