TEEN WOLF LEGACIES

We're on the road for a long time now. Oh wait, are we talking about the ride to that little town named Beacon Hills, or the ride to escape our father full of shit trying to kill us? Either way, I need a break.

- Can we stop the car?

-What, you wanna pee again, little sis ? Ask my brother Isaac.

-Shut up big bro.

He chuckles.

-It's good to see you're still glad I saved your ass.

- You have saved my ass? Well I don't remember that. I said, smiling with all my teeth.

He finally drops me at the parking station so I can go for a walk around the cars. He comes see me.

-How are you doing?

-You mean am I totally confused because it's been three years we can't stop running for our lives or am I totally freaking out because you want me to go to high school again ?

- You know what I mean. He laughed and started messing with my hair.

-Don't you dare touch my hair! No, no it's fine, you know we've been through a lot but now I really think we can make it, have a real life, friends and everything.

-Yes you're so right and I'm glad you're so optimist...

-Ha ha! I can't believe you just fell for that ! No, I was totally kidding, I don't think we have a future in this fucking town of Beacon Hills, seriously we're just gonna runaway in like what? Two weeks? Maybe three. You're right, it must be some kind of record for us.

Thinking : And now we're gonna spend the rest of the time in a total silence cause, because of me he's not gonna talk until we arrive. I can be so stupid sometimes. But never tell that to anybody or I will rip your head off your body. And, I like to keep my promises.

The biggest drama of my life started five years ago, when I turned eleven. The day of my birthday. Mom wasn't doing great for the past few months. Her name is, well was, Marie, because she died this day. For my birthday. Fucking Cancer. The most difficult part of her illness has been to visit her the last weeks, trying to smile like if we didn't all know her life could end at any minute. Most of the time, we were alone, me and Isaac, without our father, Michael Lahey.

As kids, we always heard it wasn't good to say bad things about our parents. But if we didn't wanna lie, we had to tell our father wasn't a good man. At all. He was violent and we never felt safe, around him. Mom was the only one he listened to. She was the only one who could talk honestly and be sure he won't hit her after that. So when she died, it broke him. Even more than he was already. During the two years after the funerals, he locked Isaac in a freezer. And I couldn't do anything about it because I knew, that if I tried to help him, Papa, my dad, was gonna hurt me more than with the freezer. Maybe this time, it was gonna be the oven.

The quote says "Opposite attires opposite". Well in the case of our family, it's totally true. Our father is evil : as soon as he can, he cheats, he doesn't follow the rules, he breaks the law. Our mother is a sweetheart, an angel who fell from heaven : she's lovely, beautiful and kind to everyone. She always finds something good in people. In my dad for exemple. And I still haven't find this little, tiny part of humanity, of kindness in his soul.

One day, when I was around thirteen years old, Isaac came into my room, in the middle of the night. He said :

-Pack a little bag with clothes like I did and I'm gonna take care of the food.

-What's happening ?

-This is our chance to escape this house of the devil. So hurry up, I don't think we'll ever have another shot at this.

So I did what he asked for, I chose lots of clothes : jeans, sweaters, tee-shirts and socks of course. I took my leather jacket, a big coat and a scarf. Then I came in the bathroom and I took Papa's expensive watches. I found a wallet hidden in the library and I put my shoes on. Isaac was just joining me, with two bags : one for his personal stuff, the other one for the food. It was like we have been prepared for this all our lives.

-Where are we going ?

-Somewhere he can't find us.

Oh, that's true, I forgot to tell you this : Papa is a very powerful man, he has good relations. So at the time we'll leave the country or even the city, he'll know it. For sure.

-We have to get new IDs.

-Yeah, I know. That's why I asked for some favors from a guy at school. You'll now be known as Caroline Stewart. And I'll be your adopted big brother, Charles.

-Why the hell am I blond on this picture ?

-Because of this.

And he gave me a wig, a blond one. I put it on. It's true, you can't recognize me.

-But, what about you ?

-I'm gonna use this.

And he showed me some red glasses, awful.

-Hi, my name is Charles Stewart and I'm a mathematical genius. First in my class, all my teachers love me.

-Hi, I'm Caroline, a teenager who dresses like a slut to have the attention of boys. I don't care a lot about school and I usually make my brother do my homework. In exchange, I help him with guys, cause he's the only open gay at school.

-Laugh all you want. But I actually think this is gonna work.

-What if he finds us ?

-He won't.

So, let's go to the airport. We have to leave the country as soon as possible, maybe even the emisphery.

-So where do you wanna go ? The whole world is waiting for us !

-I think we better start with our origins.

-London.

-I heard Papa had a volt with lots of cash.

-And..?

-...Luckily I know the exact adress and the password of the door.

Present day.

-I'm going out ! Checking the mall, see ya later !

At the mall :

I see a girl, pretty, a redhead looking at her reflexion in the mirror. She's wearing a green dress.

-This dress would look way better in blue ! I say

-That's exactly what I was thinking ! Wait, it's the first time I see you.

-I just moved in. My name is Izzy Lahey.

-Omg those shoes are KILLING IT ! Where did you get them ?

-Oh, I stole them in a european shop.

-What ?

-I BOUGHT them in a european shop. That's what I said.

-Please forgive me, I haven't even introduced myself. I'm Lydia Martin. Try to remember that name for your first day at school.
