Chapter 60: RB's True Family

Previous Chapter

It didn’t take long to get to the place we were going; my home. As we got there I notice that I wasn’t bursting into flames, which was good in my case oddly enough. Gol has been here many times before, mostly to help around and spend time with me though dad always kept a close eye on him.

As we got closer I saw dad walking up to the door, must’ve finished up the day at school. “Dad!” I called out to him, getting his attention.

“Ah, Ruby. Good to see you. How was-” He stopped as I cut him off.

“Why didn’t you tell me?!” I asked/Yelled at him, making him jump a bit.

“What? What are you talking about?” he asked me. I frowned before showing him my teeth, my fangs. He blinked at this before realizing what I was talking about. “Oh… that’s what your talking about.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?” I asked Dad. He stared at me before glancing over at Gol then back at me. He unlocked the door and opened it.

“Come on, seems we need to talk.” He told me, allowing me and Gol to enter first. We soon sat at the living room seats before dad came up. “So what you want to know?” He asked me with a serious tone.

“Who else knew about… well this.” I asked, pointing at my fangs. Dad sighed as he sat down.

“Well I did, also your mother, aunt and uncle.” Dad answered me.

“Uncle Qrow and Aunt Raven… they knew?” I asked him, earning a nod from him.

“Raven… she sent me a message to ask if she should tell you about your haradige but I told her not to until you were older.” Dad told me. I frowned at him before asking.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” I asked, earning an arch brow from dad.

“What? Tell a young girl of the age of ten or younger that her mother side of the family was vampires or when your were saved from Beacon… I didn’t think it was right for you to let you know…” Dad groaned a bit. “And I feel like I’m being a bad parent…” I frowned at this before thinking about it, if mom wasn’t really a vampire… then that ment.

“Who’s… who’s my dad then?” I asked dad, making him looked at me. “I was told that mom wasn’t a vampire at the time but… I don’t know…” I said, feeling like I lost my train of thought.

“You're right, Summer wasn't a vampire… and I'm not even your real dad.” He answered sadly before looking back at me and saying. “The man you want, your birth father, goes by the name of Aurel Van Stoker… he's a vampire, a full on one that is.” He said to me. I blinked at dad as I thought about it.

“Stoker… I heard that name before…” I said before scratching my head a bit. “But where…”

“Stoker, Stoker… the only Stoker I know of was the infamously known General Benedict Stoker, he ruthlessly commanded the ancient army of a power hungry lord.” Gol mentioned and to our surprise dad nodded at Gol's words.

“Yeah, that was him…” Was all he said. The two of us stared at him.

“Mom fell in love with some power hungry army general?” I asked Dad bluntly, almost making him laugh from this.

“No no, he wasn't power hungry… he was just loyal to his lord.” Dad said, rubbing the back of his head and added. “You're mother fell in love with a man, who at first wanted nothing to do with her but… you know your mom, stubborn to get her way. Eventually she had managed to get him to warm up to her and your mother saw something in him, fell in love with him.” He said with a little chuckle.

“Like Mother like daughter.” Gol said, holding back a chuckle of his own. I gave him a look before looking back at dad.

“So… he’s really my father… and is a vampire.” I said out loud. He nodded but said.

“He's not just a vampire… he's THE vampire, he was reborn a true vampire… or at least that's he told me.” Dad said with a shrug. So all this time, I was living some sort of lie…

“Why keep this from me? Why didn’t he, I don’t know, show up and see me?” I asked my dad. He sighed at this before answering.

“He and Summer handed you to me, entrusting me to raise you because if they couldn't provide the happy life they knew you deserved.” Dad answered but it didn't help the pain. I frowned more at this as Gol spoke.

“Hold one, you say they…” Gol turned to me for a moment before looking back at dad and adding. “From what I was told Summer died, yet you’re saying it as if she was still alive…” This made me perk up a bit, staring at my dad with wide eyes as he scratched the back of his head.

“Yeah… she is but as vampire sired by Aurel. He bit her and turned her into a vampire to prevent her from dying by any normal means.” He said informatively. I stared at him with my mouth open, shocked to hear that my mom was still… sorta alive. It got to the point that Gol poked me to see if I was alright.

“Ruby… Ruby!” Gol called out my name loudly. I blinked a few times before looking around.

“Huh? Where am I? Did we leave?” I asked before realizing that we were still in the house.

“You alright? You were out of it for a while.” Gol told me, wrapping an arm around me before asking. “How are you feeling?” He asked with concern.

“I’m… shocked… surprised and… happy that my mom is alive…” I paused for a moment as I thought about it. “... kinda? Still wrapping my head around vampire being in between.” Dad looked me sadly, no doubt feeling the guilt for having withheld this information for so long and keeping up the act that he was my real dad. I stared at him before I stood up and went over to give him a hug. “Doesn’t mean I won’t stop calling you dad.” I whispered into his ear. He smiled and wrapped his arms around to return the hug.

“So now what?” Gol asked as I pulled away from the hug. I looked at him for a moment as I thought about it.

“I… don’t know…” I said as I sat beside my dad. I looked over at dad before speaking. “What do you think I should do?” Dad shrugged before saying.

“Well the way I see it, you can meet your biological father and maybe even learn about being a vampire.” He said to me, giving the suggestions. There was that and there was mom, the thought of her being alive gave me hope of seeing her again. I stood up with a smile as I looked at Gol.

“Hey, want to go on a roadtrip?” I asked him with a smile.

“Couldn't say no even if I wanted to.” Gol answered with his own smile. Dad looked at us as we stood up. I smiled at him before giving him a hug.

“Thank you… for everything.” I said as I felt tears form in my eyes. He returned the hug without hesitation before he spoke.

“Anything for my little Rose.” He whispered to me, planting a kiss atop my head. I smiled at him as I pulled away. “Now… don’t take this the wrong way but I have to ask you two to leave. I have a lot of tests to grade.” I giggled before both Gol and I walked out of the house.

“So you really want to meet this guy?” Gol asked me as he shut the door behind him. I gave it some thought before turning to him.

“Well, kinda.” I said before looking back at the house. “Sure this guy is my real dad, but I know little of him, mostly I want to see my mom again.” I said sadly as I looked down at the ground. Gol grasped my hand in his and brought my gaze back up to him, seeing his comforting smile.

“Let's head to town, we'll see if Mavis or Axycia can take us back to our Remnant.” Gol said to me before we headed back to the town of Forever Free. We walked up to the home of Mavis and Yang and I gave it a few knocks. As we waited I looked over at Gol and take hold of his hand.

“So… I have a Grimm Faunus Boyfriend, and you have a Vampire girlfriend…” I paused as I thought about it. “A really… exotic couple huh?”

“Exotic is the new norm for us, don't you think?” He asked jokingly at me. I gave him a playful grin at my boyfriend as we waited. Soon enough the door opened but it wasn't Yang nor Mavis, it was little Strun that opened the door. He looked up at us and asked.

“Um, h-hello.” He greeted shyly with a wave of his hand. I smiled as I waved back.

“Hi there, is your mommy here?” I asked him as sweetly as I could… don’t know if it works on a pale woman with long black and red hair with fangs. He didn’t run screaming so that’s good. Strun nodded shakingly before running off inside, leaving the door ajar. I was able hear him calling for his mommies the farther he got. Soon enough, Mavis opened up the door with Strun her arms. The later smiling in his mother's embrace.

“Yes, is there something you need?” Mavis asked us. Between the two of us, we explained what’s going on and the question I wanted to ask. Mavis arched a brow at this as we finished. “You two wish to visit your world?” Mavis asked us with an arched brow. Strun listened and watched as we spoke, not knowing what was going on and Mavis kept him like that giving him the occasional kisses.

“Yes, I want to see my mom again… and punch my birth father… and maybe eat a sandwich…” I thought for a moment before looking at Gol. “I’ve spent way too much time with Rose.” With a curious look, she simply sighed and shrugged before snapping her fingers. Within a flash of light, a necklace had formed around my neck with a large gemstone hanging from it. It bore similarities to an actual Ruby but it was darker in color.

“This will take you to Remnant and back, as for Gol all he needs to do is simply place a hand on your shoulder or hold hands, as long as you’re making physical contact with one another you will both brought along to Remnant.” Mavis explained to me and Gol, the gemstone shining a dark red as she spoke before it stopped. I toyed with it for a moment before smiling at Mavis.

“Thank you so much Mavis.” I said to her. Mavis smiled before closing the door, seeing that her assistance is no longer required. The two of us walked away from her home until I stopped and looked at Gol. “So… you ready or… want to do something else?” I asked him. His answer was a simply nod and holding my gently with his Grimm hand. With a smile I looked down and saw the darken ruby started to glow and the two of us teleported from where we were. I blinked a few times before I notice the bright glow fading and saw that we stood in front of a gate which lead to a large manor. Looking around I noticed we were somewhere in the Emerald Forest but how? Surely Atlas drones would be able to pick this place up in their scans. I was taken out of my thoughts when a buzzer sounded. Gol had pressed the intercom to reveal our presence to whoever was in the manor.

Who is this? How did you find this place?” A male voice asked out from the intercom. Gol looked at me with a shrug. I waked over to the intercom to speak.

“Hello? Where is this place?” I asked the man through the intercom.

You stand in front of the gates to the Manor of Aurel Von Stoker and I'll ask you again, state your name and your business here?” The male voice asked, though, despite words meaning to be threatening, his tone sounded calm. I couldn’t help but thought this was funny.

“Well then, found the place. Here’s the business part first,” I said with a smirk on my face. “I want to meet the lord and lady of this place. It’s important.” The voice sighed before speaking.

And what pray tell is this important matter that you'd wish to disturb Lord Aurel with?” The voice asked me. Gol looked at me oddly, not knowing what I was trying to do.

“Well… tell him that a woman named Ruby Rose wants to talk to him.” I said to the man, smiling that I was using my real name for once. There was soon silence after I uttered my real name, it was like this nearly three minutes before the gates began to open up, allowing us entry into the property. “I think that went well,” I said to Gol with a smile. He rolled his eyes before he and I began our short trek towards the large manor. I looked up at the large building as we grew close, now realizing that I was completely nervous at all this. I soon felt Gol’s hand on my shoulder as he smiled at me.

“It'll be fine.” He said to me as we walked up to the doors as it opened, revealing a platinum blonde haired man in his mid-twenties wearing black dress pants, a white dress shirt with a purple tie, and a purple vest. It gave him a butler vibe. Upon sight of me, he was ready to bow but saw Gol and frowned lightly, having not been informed of his presence. I frowned at him before walking in front of Gol.

“He’s with me… got a problem with that?” I asked as tighten my fist. He shook his head at this before bowing, his frown vanishing as he straightened up.

“Follow me.” Was all the butler looking man said before heading inside with me and Gol following behind. The inside was huge, even it was just the entry hall. The walls were decorated with mounted Grimm trophies but one of them looked more human than Grimm.

“Those look…” I didn’t finished as I looked over at Gol as he stared at the trophies. He frowned and shook his head before we moved on. There were many large portraits of the same man, no doubt this Aurel guy though there was one portrait, larger than the others that had him, mom and… me? I stopped in front of it and looked at the portrait. I stared at it for a few moments before I turned off to follow the others.

We soon came to a large set of doors, it even had a plaque on the doors reading Study. The platinum blonde haired man walked up to the door and knocked a few times. And with each knock, I felt myself shake. A feeling of fear washed over me as each knock happened. I reached out and grabbed Gol’s Grimm hand and squeezed it. Soon the doors open and I saw a woman step out of the room. She was taller than be but by a simple glance I knew who she was… she was the woman from the portrait… she was my mom.

She was a spitting image of me, though in a sense more Ruby with her short hair. She looked over and saw the butler as I moved behind Gol, thanking that his wings were large.

“Klaus, it's nice to see you… what can I help you with?” the woman said softly. The butler man, who's name turned out to be Klaus, bowed at the sight of my mother before gesturing towards me and Gol.

“There is someone here claiming to be Ruby Rose.” Klaus said calmly and informatively. Mom looked my way and saw only Gol and his wings. The latter noticed me hiding behind him and stepped aside, revealing me. I froze as our eyes locked on each other. She stared at me before slowly walking over to me as she spoke.

“R-Ruby?” She asked as she got closer. “Is that… you?” I didn’t say anything as I nodded as she soon stood in front of me and took my head into her hands as she stared at me.

“Uh… h-hi mom.” I said with a smile as she took a shaky breath and smiled.

“My little girl… all grown up…” she said before pulling me into a hug. I hugged her back as I let my tears fall as I hugged my mom. I felt her own tears fell onto me as my mom hugged me before pulling back and wiped away her tears. “You look so different than I thought.”

“It’s the hair isn’t it.” I said jokingly, making her chuckle a bit. I glanced at Gol, seeing him smiling at the sight reuniting with my mom. “Oh, mom this is Gol Parker.” I introduce him to her.

“Ahh, yes…” Mom gave him a look before saying. “Did we… meet before?” Gol titled his head at this before shaking his head.

“Not to my knowledge.” Gol said to my mom with a shake of his head. Mom looked at him then glanced at me then back at him and arch a brow.

“Well, I do have to say you two look cute together.” she said with a smile, which made me blush. She knows! Gol was the first to speak after that.

“Was it that obvious?” Gol asked mom as he walked up to me, holding me close with a wing. I hid my blush behind the wing.

“Nope, compleat guess.” she said with a smile before turning to the doors with the two of us staring at her in shock.

“Can’t believe she just did that…” I said before seeing mom walk into the study which reminded me the next part. “Well… time to see him…” Klaus had left already, no doubt during the heartfelt reunion. Gol nodded in time for mom to motion for us to follow her inside. Stepping into the room, I marveled at the sight of many bookcases lining up the walls, many of these books looked ancient. At the far side of the room was a single desk with a pale man reading a book that laid there on his desk. He was focused on his reading that he didn't notice us enter.
“So dear, what did Klaus want?” The man asked mom no doubt as he turned a page.

“He said that we have… someone important that wanted to see us.” Mom said, looking at me with a smile. The man hummed at this before looking up from his book and looked at mom just before she stepped aside, allowing him to see me. He stood up from his chair, revealing his intimidating height before making his way towards me. Every step he took echoed through the study, I couldn't help but feel nervous once again. Now closer to me than before, he gave me a good look over, his narrowed gaze softening before he nodded silently.

“It is you… dear little Rose.” He said to me. I smiled up at him as he stood near me… right before I punched him in the side. The one thing I didn’t expect was that it felt like punching a brick wall.

“Ow!... the heck are you made out of?!” I said as I held my hand and frowned. “Here I was with a good one liner of not sending me or checking up on me but… ow!” I heard Gol facepalmed at this as mom simply sighed. I looked back up at him, seeing that it didn't even leave a bruise.

“Can't say I don't deserve it.” He said, feeling the spot where my fist made contact. “I suppose Taiyang has filled you on who I am and what I am.” He guessed, looking at me as he did.

“Yeah, right after I found out about these.” I said as I opened my mouth so he could see the fangs. Mom got closer and got a closer look at them.

“Oh my, your fangs came in!” She said with a smile. “And they look good to!” Aurel or dad or whatever, chuckled at mom’s words before speaking himself.

“So you have questions then.” He guessed, gaining a nod from me as soon as he said this. “Alright then, I'll answer them.” He then noticed Gol and arched a brow upon seeing him. I felt nervous as he stared at Gol like that.

“This is Gol… he’s my boyfriend.” I said to him as I stepped closer to Gol. The latter draping a wing over me, bringing me comfort. Feeling the warmth he brought to me, I couldn't help but hum appreciatively and lean my head onto his shoulder.

“Aww, that's so sweet.” Mom said with a smile on her face. I blushed at this and used Gol's wing to hide the blush like I did before. My father looked at Gol with an arched brow still, though I was unsure if it was because of his Grimm traits or something else.

“I do hope you're treating her nice, like she is the most important thing in your life.” My father said, gaining a nod from Gol. The latter glanced at me, giving me a warm smile before speaking up.

“She is the most important thing in my life… and I'll cherish every moment with her.” Gol said to him. My father simply stared him down, his red-eyed gaze simply looking at Gol as if to see if he was lying or not. He then smiled with a chuckle.

“Very well then, just know that if you ever do anything to hurt emotionally or physically…” He warned Gol, not even finishing his sentence.

“Trust me, I'd never hurt Ruby.”Gol said, accepting the warning of my vampiric father. Huh, still need to get used to that.

“Of course you don't hurt me.” I said to him as I rested my head on his shoulder. “If you did I'll hurt you back.” My father let a snort, having not expected that response from me. He quickly recomposed himself before Gol said.

“Yeah, that too.” Gol said, crossing his arms at me but still had the wing draped over me. It was then I remembered of another reason of why we're here.

“So… what's going to happen to me?” I asked both mom and my father. “I don't think paler skin and fangs are going to be it.” My father arched a brow before answering.

“Along with some minor physical changes, you'll be faster, stronger and your reflexes will be inhuman.” My father explained and to be honest, those sounded pretty cool and thought of being faster was even better. Then i thought of a dumb question.

“Dumb question; is the sun bad for me?” I asked, feeling dumb asking that. At first, he simply looked at me as if questioning why I would ask such a thing and before I knew he busted out laughing, his laugh echoed loudly in the large room.

“I can't…” He wasn't able to finish his sentence as another round of laughter was brought out from him. This went on for a while, Mom was chuckling at my father’s laughter while I fidgeted nervously in place not knowing what he'll say. Before long he managed to calm down and compose himself before finally answering. “Sorry, sorry… it gets funnier every time I hear it.” He said to me before clearing his thought. “No, it's not bad for you in the sense you'll die setting foot outside but it is still an inconvenience. At most, you'll just feel weak in the sun but only if you haven't had any blood.” He said to me.

“Right…” I said, now feeling a little stupid for asking that question.

“Oh don't feel too bad, your mother asked me the same thing when she became a vampire.” He informed me with a little laugh. Mom blushed a bit before looking to the side.

“It's an honest question.” She muttered to herself. I gave her a sympathetic look as I stood under Gols wing.

“And I just so happen to find it hilarious.” My father replied with a smirk, hearing mom’s muttering. She simply rolled her eyes as she smiled at me. I smiled back at the two of them as I finally met my father and my mother again.

“So… what now?” I asked. Gol looked down at me with an arched brow and asked.

“What do you mean?” He asked me, while my parents talked to one another. Their conversation mostly involved me, mom mentioned how proud she was to see me all grown up and with someone that cares about me.

“Well… I don't know what to do next… never thought this far ahead.” I said to Gol. He chuckled at this before pulling me a little closer to him with his wing, gaining a little giggle from.

“You always need to think ahead of times, babe.” He whispered to me, planting a loving kiss on my cheek after he spoke. I smiled at this as I kissed him back.

“Yeah, but I do love to enjoy the moment.” I whispered back to him. Gol smiled at this as we stayed like that until we turned back to my parents. “Hey… this might be another dumb question but… aren't you two worried about the Grimm overrun?” Both my mom and father looked at me curiously after hearing my question.

“Quite worried, yes.” My father answered me before asking. “Why do you ask?” Mom was curious about this as well. I frowned sadly at this, the idea that the two of them out here in the middle of the Emerald Forest waiting for a horde of Grimm to stampede through. Even if they were vampires, I don't think they could survive.

“Maybe they can come back with us.” Gol suggested to me, earning curious looks from both mom and father.

“Back with you where exactly?” My Father asked the both of us. Mom was hoping for an answer as well.

“Well… it's kinda hard to believe.” I said to them.

“Honey, we're vampires.” Mom said simply while crossing her arms. Both Gol and I looked at one another.

“Don't say that I didn't warn you…” I started before both me and Gol started to explain where we came from. We didn't leave anything out which was why it took almost two hours to explain. My parents listened to every word, both of then found it hard to believe that a race of anthropomorphic magic ponies ruled over a kingdom and then I told them about my duel against Blueblood which brought a laugh out from both Gol and my father though the latter was brought to tears when mentioned how I won. “Hey, I can't believe he was knocked out by that… wimp.”

“Though I don't think it's a good idea to laugh at one's pain… but I think this… stallion deserved it.” Mom said, earning a chuckle from father.

“So… do you two want to come?” I ask the two of them. “It’s not like here but… it's would be better than worrying if a horde of Grimm is coming…” Mom smiled at me, appreciating my concern over them. My father glanced at mom as if silently asking if she wanted to go to what is most definitely a better place. Mom looked at me and simply smiled before answering with a nod.

“Alright, we'll go but where will we be staying?” My father asked me with an arched brow. I gave it some thought about that.

“You think Mavis or Axycia would help with that?” I asked Gol. He looked at me before shrugging.

“Mavis has been pretty helpful so far, maybe she can whip them up a new home.” Gol suggested, gaining curious looks from mom and father. I nodded and looked at the two of them.

“We'll have something.” I told them.

“Alright then, how do we leave?” Mom then asked me.

“I got a way but… what about your butler?” I asked the two of them. Mom and father looked at one another before a knock grabbed our attention. Mom was quick to make her way over to answer the door. When she opened it, she was greeted by the butler in question holding two bags of luggage no doubt belonging to my parents.

“I've taken the liberty to pack for such an occasion.” He said, handing mom her bag before walking into the room and stopping in front of my father before handing his bag and saying. “Here you are, milord.” He said. He was now bagless save for a duffel bag he carried. “I am to believe that I will be joining the master and mistress?” He said, to which both mom and father nodded.

“I uhh, guess that solves that thought.” I said as I looked at everyone. “We… might not see this place for a long time… ever even. Are you three sure you want to do this?” This merely brought a chuckle from my father.

“I've lived here for centuries, literally nothing adorning this home matters to me… except for the seventy inch plasma screen television.” My father said, gaining confused looks from me and Gol. Mom sighed at our confusion before she spoke.

“Honey, your television is very outdated.” Mom told him before crossing her arms and adding. “And you haven't you used in the past decade.”

“To be fair, milady, the services for his… relic television had been dropped, most likely to provide the services for the scrolls.” Klaus said informatively, earning the roll of my father's eyes. I didn’t say anything about this, not really sure what to say.

“We should get going.” Gol whispered to me. I looked over at him before looking at the other three to see if they’re ready.

“I do believe we're all set, madam.” Klaus told me in his calm tone of voice. I nodded at him before taking hold of Gol.

“Okay, so just to let you know that you all have to be in contact to me for this to work so…” I lifted my hand up for them to have them take hold. Mom placed her hand atop of mine which was followed by my father's and finally Klaus. Gol held my other hand with a smile before the gem on my necklace shone brightly before finally blinding me once again.

After a few moments I was able to see and saw that we were back to the Everfree, I saw the town nearby and the school as well.

“Ohh, it's like that acid trip I had gone I devoured that magic man.” My father said, looking at our new surroundings. Mom sighed at this, a little annoyed at him for mentioning… wait devour!? I gave father an odd look as he chuckled a bit.

“He had magic cards.” Mom clarified, revealing the man my father was talking about wasn't magic. My father chuckled and smirked before saying.

“And magic hands.” He said in a suggestive tone that… just ew, no.

“Moving on… We need to find either Mavis or Axycia, they’ll help us with making a place for you three.” I said as I started look around, wondering who should be better to find first. Gol thought on this for a moment before saying.

“Mavis is much closer and I really don't want to go to Ponyville, don't a repeat of last time.” He said me, reminding me of the mass panic a trio of mares had caused upon sight of Gol. My parents arched a curious brow at this while Klaus waited patiently.

“Yeah… let’s go find Mavis. Hope she’s not busy.” I said before leading everyone to Yang and Mavis’ place. As we walked I saw some Faunus walking around either student or someone from the town near here. Funny enough when they see father and mother as well as Klaus they didn’t see it as weird. Guess out of all the weird stuff that happened over the time they just got used to it. When we arrived at the residence of Mavisath and Yang, we saw them outside watching over their twins as they played around with their new playground, no doubt made by Mavis’s magic. Yang had little Hotaru in her arms and Mavis held both of them close to her. Mavis was quick to notice us walking up to her home and raised a curious brow at the sight of my parents. She looked at Yang and said something to her that I was unable to hear before Mavis stood up and walked over to us.

“I knew you went your parents but I'd have never guessed you could convince them to come with.” Mavis told me. I gave her a shrug as I looked to my parents.

“Mom, Dad, this is Mavis.” I greeted them. Both of them gave Mavis a courtly bow, no doubt mom learned that from my father.

“A pleasure to met such a beautiful woman as yourself.” Greeted my father only to be quickly elbowed in the stomach by mom. Unlike my attempt to hit him, mom had actually got him to groan and hold his stomach. “You're the one for me, Summer.” He groaned.

“Got that right.” Mom said with a bit of a huff. I chuckled a bit before I saw someone came over to us. Yang leaned in and looked at mom, making her eyes widen. “Y-Yang?”

Yang didn’t say anything for a few moments before looking at me. “Yours?” I simply nodded as her expression softened and nods. She turned and smiled at my mother. “Hi there.” Mom looked like she was confused.

“Umm.” was all she could say, looking for Mavis for help.

“Yes, she is Yang but not the one you of, she is from a different version of your world and my beloved wife.” Mavis said, adding the last part with a smile as she glanced back at Yang. “Now then, what is it you require of me?” Mavis asked me, smiling as she did. My father lets out another groan as he straightened up. Yang smiled at this before looking back at her kids.

“Hey hey hey! Don’t touch that!” she said before running off to deal with something. This got a chuckle from Mavis and me as I looked up at her.

“So… sorry to bother you for another thing but…” I stopped as I didn’t know how to word it.

“We wanted to ask if you could make these three a new home.” Gol helped finish my sentence after seeing my struggle.

“Is that so?” Mavis asked me, wanting to be sure that what he said was true.

“Yes, again I hope this isn’t too much trouble.” Mom said with a little smile. “My daughter said that you or this Axycia would help us.” With a smile, Mavis answered with a chuckle.

“Oh it's no trouble at all but I do however ever require an idea of what you want your new home to be, so if you two would follow me.” Mavis said, walking past us and glancing back. “I'll be taking you an open plot of land, do not worry about payment, I'll handle that.” After hearing this, Mom glanced at my father before they followed Mavis. Klaus was left to look after their luggage but didn't seem to mind. Every now and again, he would readjust his gloves though I'm unsure if it was because they were uncomfortable or simply because he could.

“So… you been with my family for a long time?” I asked the butler. Klaus looked at me with an arched brow before answering.

“I have worked under your father's employ for around fifty years.” Klaus said without nonchalantly. Both me and Gol looked surprised at the mention of how long he had been working.

“Fifty years!?” Both me and Gol exclaimed in shock, gaining a nod from Klaus before I shook my head and spoke.

“How? You don't look a day over twenty four.” I said, baffled at this revelation.

“You may thank your father for that, he cursed me stay this age he longer requires my service.” He said calmly, yet adding more questions than answers.

“So… you’re also a vampire?” I asked him. He shook his head at this as soon as the question left my mouth.

“No, simply cursed.” He said, rolling up his right sleeve to reveal what could only be demonic markings running up his arm. Both Gol and I looked at them as he lowered his sleeve.

“They kinda look like the markings on Viri’s mom.” I said getting a nod from Gol.

“Yeah, only less demonic.” Gol added. “Also they look more like tattoos.” I nodded a bit before looking at Klaus.

“Why were you cursed though?” I asked him. Klaus chuckled a little at this before answering.

“I was previously part of an organization of Vampire Hunters, a large group along myself were tasked with the elimination of your father. He butchered and devoured most of my colleagues and kept a few of us alive, out them all he chose me to me his servant for as long as he sees fit.” Klaus explained calmly and nonchalantly. This… was something I can’t wrap my head around.

“Did he explain why?” I asked Klaus.

“Yes, he was deciding between devouring us or take one of us as his servant, he flipped a coin and chose me as his servant.” Was Klaus’s answer as he glanced at me and Gol.

“He… flipped a coin…” I said, feeling that it was a dumb decision maker for the situation. Klaus nodded, leaving me and Gol dumbstruck at this.

“Your father is a peculiar individual.” Klaus said with a quiet chuckle. Gol looked at me, seeing my twitching left eye.

“I feel like I’m going to get a headache when I talk to him…” I groaned a bit as I said that. Gol couldn't help but chuckle at this, knowing what I meant and simply draped a wing over me. This affection alleviated me of my coming headache and Klaus smiled at the sight of us.

“You and your mother have peculiar interests in men.” Klaus said jokingly though it was hard to tell at first as he spoke in his calm tone. I groaned mentally at this before seeing Mavis walking back with my parents in tow, they must've finished with the creation of their new home.

“Hey, is it finished?” I asked the three of them. Mavis nodded with a smile before answering.

“Yes it is, though your mother was the one who offered a design.” Mavis said before glancing at my parents as they conversed with one another. “It's fully furnished and is ready for them to move in.” Mavis said before looking back at me, smiling as she did. I smiled at her before speaking.

“Thank you Mavis, this… this means a lot.” I told her. Mavis smiled at me before saying.

“It's a pleasure to help a friend in need, my dear.” She said with a quiet chuckle. Gol and I smiled at her before she went back to her dearest Yang, leaving me and Gol to deal with my parents.

“Now that you have your home sorted out, let me be the first to welcome you three to Equestria.” Gol said, gaining my parents and Klaus’s attentions. My mom smiled, no doubt happy to live close by to me. Klaus had a hint of a smile on his face, most likely relieved to not have to worry over a Grimm overrun anymore. I looked over at my father to see him look around at the place some more, deep in thought.

“It'd be interesting to see how life differs from Remnant.” He muttered to himself quietly, though with my heightened hearing I was able to listen. I smiled at this before looking away.

“I believe it’ll be interesting.”
