15 Missing Letter

"Luke was a cute kid. I think that is what started Leo's want to help out the non-humans that wanted peace. He had just taken over his father's place too. His father was the same way, but he had a lot of power to back it up. There were rumours that he made a pact to protect a family, but we were never able to track down the information on that family." Will looked at the two of them. "I'm in the same boat as Leo. I would rather have peace, so the two of us only hunt killers."

Kitty listened to Leo's story carefully. "I look forward to meeting Luke. I am sure he is a kind, sweet boy." Kitty thought about how there was a secret connection that she vaguely remembered her mother mentioning to her. "Wait... was your father by any chance Robert?"

Leo looked up at Kitty sharply. "How do you know my father's name, Kitty?"

Kitty got up and went over to the phone and dialled Julie's number. She put the phone on speakerphone. "Julie, can you come to the hotel and bring that letter with you."

Julie was quiet for a little bit. "Is there a problem, Kitty? I can bring the letter. I'll be there in about twenty or so minutes. What room number do I go to?"

"We're in room 316. Be safe on the drive over here, Julie." Kitty hung the phone. "Leo, it was your father that protected my family. That was how we were able to settle here. Your father and mother were indeed very kind people." She walked back to the couch and laid down, laying her head on his lap. She closed her eyes, relaxing.

Leo and Will were both shocked. Leo was the first to talk. "You met my parents, Kitty? How is that even possible? They died the day before my sixteenth birthday."

"Mmmmm. Wait for the letter, and I'll explain when you're done reading it. I read my copy a long time ago. I wouldn't have been able to figure out that you were Robert's son if Will didn't mention the protected family." She kept her eyes closed. Her fox ears twitched. "I suggest that the two of you grab another drink."

Will finally spoke up. "If you know Robert, then what was his wife's name?" He asked while getting up. He took his cup to the counter, poured a drink for himself, and brought the whole bottle of bourbon to Leo.

"Her name was Sandra, and her best friend was Linda. Linda was married to Charles. The two couples had a double wedding. Which was unheard of back in the day, but they were happy to share their special day with each other. The wedding formed a special connection between the two families." Kitty explained and opened her eyes, and looked up at Leo. "I didn't know that you were connected to them. Will, can you get the door?" There was a knock at the door after Kitty spoke. Will got up and opened the door. As requested. "Julie the is Leo, the son of Robert and Sandra. The one who opened the door is Will." Kitty looked at Julie from the couch.

"I told you not to use your powers too much. Leo, it is good to meet you. Your father was a wonderful individual. It's nice to meet you, Will, as well." She took her shoes and walked up to Kitty. "Since you are in your fox form, you must trust these two. So Leo is the father of the baby?"

"If we are to save the town, we need allies, and these two are the ones who will be able to help us out. Give Leo the letter. Both of these two are hunters Julie, but yes Leo is the baby's father and my chosen partner. I marked him, so there is no turning back." She said the last line and sat up.

Julie handed the letter to Leo. "You have a lot of explaining to do, Kitty." Julie sighed.

Leo took the letter and looked at the wax seal on the back of the letter. It was sealed with his family's secret seal, and the wax was the correct shade of red that only his family used. He opened the letter up.

Leo, if you are reading this, then I have long passed from the world of the living. Your mother and I are proud of you. I really wanted to change the way things were run, but someone kept blocking my attempts. There are some chemicals that were produced and were being used to send peaceful races into a frenzy. I was working on uncovering the culprit, and I was working closely with Linda and Charles to do so. 

Later on, after they passed, we worked directly with Kitty. We never told you that we were doing this for fear that you would get killed as well. Linda said that they weren't going to involve their daughter unless they had to, so her parents kept it from her as well, but she got involved as soon as they passed. This letter was kept in fox demons family care for fear of it falling into the wrong hands. If you are reading this, that means that you have connected with Kitty. I pray that the two of you are connecting under healthy conditions and that you follow our views to unite the mystical being and the humans in peace. I protected the fox demons in the hope that we could do that with all the peaceful clans. Leo, please protect the fox clan in my place. Also, not all vampires are killers.

I'm willing to bet that you were smitten when you met Kitty. She is a charming young lady, and I always hoped that I could introduce you to her. She was always close by her parents. She was probably present when they were killed. Please take care of her, and I hope that you can find happiness. I know this is a lot to take in, but I know that you can handle it. 

Father and Mother.

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved.

--George Sand
