The Beginning

" Sonya! Tonya! Get down here You'll be late for school." " Like I care." I say as my sister and I run down the stairs. " Tonya you're beautiful and smart why don't you like school?", our mother comments." Tonya doesn't like school because her boyfriend was cheating on her with a cheerleader.", my twin Sonya replies while stuffing her face with her mourning cupcake. " Tonya why didn't you tell me." " For one I found out last night and for another I didn't want anyone to know.", I reply. " Why don't you want people to find out?", our mother asks." I can answer that one mom. She doesn't want anyone to know because the cheerleader he was dating used to be one of her best friends and she hates cheerleaders. So if it gets out to the wrong people she'll be the laughingstock of the school", Sonya says. I reply," Shut up!! Sonya mom will be the only person you tell." " Why? I mean Tylor will tell everyone anyways." " Who's Tylor?" our mother asks confused. " Mom Tylor is the football player I was dating. Anyways come on Sonya we'll be late if we don't leave now." " Okay. Okay I'm coming."

We got in our black and white sportscar and headed out to school. My sister and I may have been twins and looked kinda similar but we were nothing alike. I had long dark and light blue hair while Sonya had short dark and light blue hair. We both had one green and one red eye. In school we didn't talk much because we hung out in different crowds but at home we were ok. I hated school while she loved it, I was kinda goth while she was a tomboy, I hated sports she loved them. We were completely different the only thing we basicly have in common is that we both want to be vampires but then again who doesn't.

Once we got to school we went our seperate ways. Once my best friend saw me she ran over to me, " Tonya I heard what happened I'm so sorry." " Sorry for what?" " I heard that Tylor was cheating on you with Kyla." " I ts ok I mean look at me I can do so much better then him." " Are you sure? I mean he is the quaterback." " And I don't care I hated going to his games anyway. I need a boyfriend that I have stuff in common with." " I thought you might say that. Thats why we should go meet the new guys." " I don't know." " Come on I hear they're really cute and one of them hates sports and cheerleaders. So Kyla can't steal him. It's a win win." " Fine but whats the other one like." " Oh he'd be perfect for Sonya. He loves everything that she loves. Oh and I almost forgot they have the same natural hair and eye colors as you and Sonya." " Awesome let me get Sonya and I'll go." I get my phone out and texted Sonya.

The conversation:
OMG Sonya guess wut !!!

Ther r 2 guys exactly like us
OMG!! No way
Yea come on we have to meet them
Ok where r they
I herd they r at the library
k
END OF CONVERSATION

Finding The Truth

"Hey Sonya there you are. What took you so long?" "Sorry Kyla stopped me and was asking me stupid crap." " Its ok at least they are still there but we have to hurry." We walked over to the new kids and to our surprise they weren't just brothers they were twins. I spoke first," Hey you must be the new guys I'm Tonya and this is my twin Sonya." The goth looking one replied," Hey I'm Brandon and this is my twin Brendon." Brandon had shoulder length dark and light blue hair while Brendon had short dark and light blue hair, each had one green and one red eye. I was stupid enough to ask," Why do we all look similar?" Brendon and Brandon both laughed at that like I was stupid for not knowing. " Tonya we all look like this because we are a rare breed of vampire. I'm surprised you didn't know." " Sorry but I think the reason we didn't know is because we were adopted." " Really did your birth parents at least name you?" " Yea our full names are Tonya Demon Vampyr and Sonya Angel Vampyr. For some reason we believed it was French. Why did you need to know?" " Because we were sent to come get you. You guys are the lost vampire princesses." Sonya replies," Awesome well for me at least Tonya never wanted to be a princess not even when we were little." " Really neither does my brother Brandon. You know except he never wanted to be a prince." " Please tell me we aren't related.", I say. " God no!! We are arranged to be married", replies Brendon. Sonya asks," Which marries which?" " That’s a good question SIS." " Oh. Well your parents choose. But will you come with us?" I replied for my sister," Of course we will come."

Telling Them

My sister and I finished the rest of the week preparing to leave with Brandon and Brendon Friday. All of our friends took the leaving well, but that wasn't the hard part of leaving, the hard part would be telling our foster parents. As soon as we got home Thursday night at dinner Sonya started that conversation," So, Mom Dad I'm sure that you've noticed me and Tonya packing." " Yes honey we have noticed and we would like an explanation." Me knowing this conversation would go on for hours answered and finished," We've been packing because our birth parents want us and we are leaving tomorrow night. Oh, and you can't do anything to stop us. Now I'm going to bed." I stand up with everyone staring at me but no one says anything because they are used to it. I then go to my room and finish packing.

Leaving

I had just started listening to my favorite song " Gives You Hell" when Brandon calls me.

THE CALL:
Hello
Tonya
yes
we have to leave now
why
because vampire slayers are in town looking for you and Sonya
ok I'll tell her and y'all come pick us up
ok bye
bye
END OF CALL

"Sonya we have to go now!!!" " Why?" " Because vampire slayers are in town looking for us. Brendon and Brandon are on their way hurry up and say goodbye." " Okay." She leaves and goes to say goodbye to our foster parents. About an hour later a knock at the door and we were on our way to the airport. I break the long silence by asking," So where are we going?" Brandon answers with a smirk," Your parents’ house stupid. Oh you meant where do they live? Well we are going to their palace in Italy." " Italy!!!! No way I've always wanted to go to Italy." When we got to the airport Brandon went to get our tickets and when I tried to give over my bags he said that we bring them onboard ourselves. In our terminal I noticed that we were the only ones there," Brandon I know there are more people than us wanting to go to Italy. So what's going on?" " Your parents have a private jet that they sent for us. If you don't believe me look out the window." Sure enough when I looked out the window there was a jet with mine and Sonya's last name on it. Sonya was beaming," No way !!! I can't believe it!" You better believe it sis 'cause I'm pretty sure the last name Vampyr isn't very common." " Oh shut up Tonya. You've just never enjoyed planes." Brendon replies," No way Brandon hates planes to. Do you hate them because you’re afraid of heights?" I answered a little embarrassed," Yea I'm not scared of heights. I'm terrified of heights." Brandon replied," Me to but we still have to get on the plane." As he said that we were called to board.

The plane looked like nothing I had ever seen. It had a total of six seats, two bathrooms, and a plasma screen TV. I sat in the very back of the jet and Brandon took the seat next to me. " You know I could get used to being a princess", I say in awe. Brandon laughed at that," Yeah, being rich has benefits but don't let it go to your head." I smirked, " Yeah I'm not the one you'll have to worry about. I never pretended to be a princess and I really never wanted to be one. Sonya always did and probably always will. Our foster parents even called her their little princess while they called me Gothica Queen of the Goth." At that we both burst out into laughter. " You know Tonya I hope your parents choose me to marry you. We have so much in common I mean my parents always called me Gothicon King of the Goth." " That is so weird and I hope my parents choose you for me to otherwise it'll be no fun. No offense to Brendon." We laughed again God I really hope my parents choose him.

After about an hour there really wasn't much to talk about. I broke the silence by asking," Are there any movies we can watch on this flight?" Brandon answered by getting up and walking towards a bookshelf I hadn't noticed. I looked at all the movies in awe," O MY GOD my parents have every monster movie I've ever seen and more. Ooooh can we watch “Interview With a Vampire”?" A huge smile came across his lips," I can't believe it. Is there anything we don't have in common. I have never heard of a girl who likes that movie so of course we can watch it." I follow him to the TV and thought of how weird this all was, how weird he is. At that moment of weirdness I prayed he would be chosen.

Meeting My Family

It was around midnight when I was awoken by Brandon shaking me. "What?", I asked sleepily." I thought you might want to know that we are here." I immediately woke up to see the jet landing by a huge castle, no wait it can't be a castle it's way too big I'm gonna make a new word for it. Ok we had landed next to heaven, yeah that sounds right. As soon as we got off the jet I knew I was home. I then realized we were being watched so I turned around only to be face to chest with a really buff man. I then ask kind of cruelly," Who the heck is this?" My response was the man laughing and hugging me. "No seriously who is this dude hugging me." The man just laughed harder and I got angrier. He finally introduced himself," Sorry I just haven't seen you in so many years. I'm your father."

"OMG! I can't believe I'm meeting you for the first time.” was Sonya's response. I laughed at her cruel attempt to be happy about this," Sonya I think it's fine to miss our foster parents." "Tonya be quiet. At least I try." Our father stepped into this argument, big mistake," Sonya what do you mean by ' at least I try'?”” Oh, what I mean is that with every foster home we go to she ruins it by not even trying." “Tonya is this true?" "Oh my gosh yes ok I didn't try. For good reason though." Sonya replies sarcastically," And what would be that reason Tonya?" "The reason, Sonya, is that I didn't want to get attached knowing that our parents would one day want us back." "We never wanted to leave you,” said someone new to the conversation walking up to our dad.

I looked at this stranger in awe, it didn’t take me long to realize this beautiful woman was my mother. She had long curly black hair and blue eyes. I ran up and hugged her so tight that if she were a doll her eyes would have popped out. She laughed when I finally let go, “It’s good to see you too, and I’m guessing you are Tonya.” “Yeah, I’m Tonya. I always knew you guys would come back for us,” at this point I was almost crying.

The Announcement

After that we all walked inside the castle, our parents gave us both our own rooms and let us rest until dinner. I decided to take a nap in my giant king sized bed (no pun intended). I was awoken around 5p.m., to someone knocking on my door,” Come in!” An old looking man walks into my room holding a black and white gown,” Mrs. Tonya this is the dress you will wear to tonight’s dinner. I suggest you get ready, dinner will be done in ten minutes.” I thank him and he walked out.

Ten minutes later I walked into the dining room only to be greeted by almost twenty people. My mother walks up to me and I ask,” Mom who are all of these people?” “Honey these are your family and the people of your kingdom.” I look at her and say,” My kingdom?” “Sweetie everything will be clear soon.” She then brought me to the end of the table near Dad ,her ,Brandon ,Brendon , and Sonya. Once we all had drinks my father stood,” Let’s drink a toast to the return of my two beautiful daughters.” Everyone cheered and smiled towards Sonya and I. My father cleared his throat,” I would like to make an announcement. My wife and I have found our replacement king and queen. They will be my daughter Tonya and prince Brandon. May they be great rulers.” I looked at Brandon who was beaming, he stood and said,” Your daughter and I will not disgrace you in our kingdom’s time of need!” My mother than stood and said,” King and Queen Nightmare, our sister kingdom, have also found replacements. They will be prince Brendon and my daughter Sonya. May your kingdom be happy and prosperous.” After that the servants brought in a huge feast and we all talked.

After the feast Brandon and I were brought to our own room,” Tonya I hope you aren’t disappointed that I will be ruling by your side.” “Brandon I’m happy it’s you and me, as long as you don’t get in my way I’ll be fine with you.” He chuckled and walked towards a huge wardrobe,” That makes two of us. Our wedding is in two months in-between that we will be learning how to be great rulers and a lot of other boring stuff.” I walk to the wardrobe to get out my night clothes and went to take a bath.

Preparing For The Wedding

Those two months passed in a blur, I had classes every day to learn how to be a good queen. After classes I would go to dress fittings and meet up with Brandon to look over wedding plans. Every day was the same and Brandon noticed my boredom,” Hey I know how bored you feel but this stuff is important.” I smiled,” I know it is but I’d like a change of my schedule for once.” He smiled,” We have two days left, I think you can live.” Wow two days, I’m only eighteen this is too much. The last thing I wanted to do was freak out at the wedding and leave Brandon standing hurt, and alone at the altar.

It was now one day till the wedding and I was sent to stay with my sister in our sister kingdom. I was happy to see my sister for once and to also be out of those classes. We didn’t have to do anything so we just talked all day. “ Sonya, do you really love Brendon?” She looked at me shocked for a moment,” Truthfully, no. I’m frightened by this wedding and I actually want out. Do you love Brandon?” I smiled,” Yeah actually I do. I know it sounds cheesy but I think it was love at first sight.” Sonya laughed,” Do you love him or is he just a rebound from Tyler?” Shaking my head I say,” No he is not a rebound. Sonya I truly love Brandon with all of my heart, and I am hurt that you would think otherwise.” She shrugged not affected,” I’m just saying you went straight from Tyler to Brandon. It just seems like a practical rebound.” After that I stormed off to my room and thought, a lot.

Sonya and I met about an hour later for our final dress fitting. My dress was long, elegant and beautiful. It was mostly white except for the flares of red here and there, it was sleeveless and didn’t have a train. Sonya’s dress was like mine except it was fully red and had a long train. We admired each other in the mirror and smiled. Everything was done, all that was left was the wedding.

The Wedding Day

Everything was crazy when I returned to the palace, people were running all over the place with decorations. My mother grabbed my arm and brought me to a dressing room,” Tonya here is your dress. Some people will be here in a moment to help prepare you.” She was about to leave when I stopped her,” Mom I’m frightened, I don’t think I am ready for this.” Looking in my eyes she gave me a broken smile,” Honey you may feel like you aren’t ready but you are. Everything will be okay and I will stay here with you it helps.” I nodded and smiled at her,” I’d love for you to stay with me, were you this scared on your wedding day?” Nodding she replied,” I was even more scared because it was also the first day I met your father. I will be right back I have to go get your sister.” Watching her leave I wondered if it was the right thing to do going through with this, or if I should take Sony and go back to the United States.

Sonya soon entered the room, we looked at each other, hugged, and began to cry. Through sobs Sonya said,” I don’t think I can do this Tonya, I’m not ready.” I put her at arm’s length and said,” Sonya you have always been prepared and strong even when I wasn’t. You can do this and you won’t be alone, I’m with you no matter what. “ She gave me a broken smile,” I’ll do this, not for our kingdom but because of you. But is there a chance we can get out of this and go back home?” I shook my head,” That was your home not mine, I never belonged there. I belong here right beside Brandon ruling over our kingdom.” Then our mom walked in the room with a bunch of people behind her.

Looking in the mirror I couldn’t believe my eyes, I looked nothing like my usual self. I looked beautiful, only because of the hair and makeup people. Sonya looked the same always beautiful, but you couldn’t recognize me. When our dad entered the room he almost burst into tears and gave us a big hug. The wedding music began and I knew it was time, I looked at Sonya,” Are you ready?” She shook her head and chuckled,” No are you?” Surprisingly I was and I was ready to be married and be a queen,” Yeah I am.” We then exited the room and walked to our future.

What Are You Doing?!

Standing next to Brandon I was surprisingly calm when it was my turn to say,” I do.” We kissed and smiled at each other knowing we would be together for eternity. Then Sonya walked toward Brendon looking like she would die any second. When the priest asked for objections she raised her hand and I gasped,” Tonya, everyone I know you must be disappointed but I can’t do this. I can’t marry someone I don’t love and I’m sorry.” I stood and followed Sonya when she ran away,” Sonya, what are you doing?!” She looked at me with sad eyes,” I’m so sorry I can’t do this, I’m going back to our foster parents.” Grabbing her shoulders I shook her hard,” You can’t go back! Do you really want to leave your family behind and disappoint all of those people? Sonya I know you can do this, all you have to do is try!” I was now in tears because I was scared I would never see my twin again. She nodded,” Fine, I’ll do this for you. But I won’t like it.” Smiling I respond,” Never said you had to like it, but remember you might love that I made you do this in the future.” We laughed and walked back to the wedding.
