Topic: He may be a little terror, but he is my little terror

Yo Diary
We arrived at the Denali's this morning, before we arrived within hearing distance I looked at my son and saw he was awake and looking at the damn book. "Tobias" I said to him, my son looked at me "its important that you behave yourself while we are here, we are visiting some of my friends, do you think you can do that son." He looked at me and did not make any response. "Tobias, I need an answer son." I said again.
He nodded his head and I moved in to kiss his forehead and he pulled away and I sighed. "One more thing son...don't use you're talents on them ok, it might surprise them." Tobias had this look on his face, it lasted for only a moment before it became blank, I banged my head on the steering wheel and sighed. I recalled reading something about children on the internet, they were meant to become a terror and general pain in the ass at the two year stage, he wasn't even on one year stage and he was aleady driving me round the twist.
I guess to be fair on my son, he is growing faster than normal children and he is maturing a lot faster than them too. I looked forward, we were almost there and he looked ahead ignoring me.
Within distance to the house I saw Eleazer and his mate Carmen step out of the house along with his sister in laws Kate & Tanya. They were all beautiful women, but none of them could compare to her.
I looked at my son "Stay here son." I stepped out of the car and looked at the coven of vampires, I walked towards them seeing the vampires and stopped and raised a finger. "One moment" I said to them and ran back to the car and leaned over the window to grab the keys from the ignition. My son looked at me "yeah as if I am going to leave you alone in the car with the keys little man." Tobias rolled his eyes up and he reminded me of his mother.
Tobias reminds me so much of her, he is so defiant and mischievious. I put the keys in my pocket and approached the Denali's and greeted Eleazar, his mates and sisters-in-law. Eleazar kept looking over my shoulders and saw Tobias holding that damn book, Carmen leaned over to see my son. "Is that a...?" Carmen asked. Kate leaned over to inspect with Tanya right behind her "No I hear the heart beating" Eleazer spoke, "Who is he?" Carmen asked me.
I looked back to my son and smiled, "my son," I answered. They all looked at me surprised. Tobias looked at us, I was amazed he could actually pull his eyes away from that stupid book.
Tobias undid his seatbelt and moved to the driver's side of the car and I was thankful that I removed the car keys from the car. I doubt he would have done anything, but I could not help myself from thinking he would start the car and drive into a tree or something.
Tanya & Kate moved to the window and Tanya instantly picked up Tobias, Carmen's curiosity got the better of her as she went to my son and said "Mi lo que un hombre pequeno y encantador." She petted my son's head while Tanya pulled at Tobias cheeks and I watched Tobias scowl at all the female attention. I made a mental note. I needed to teach him females fawning over him was a good thing.
Tanya asked if they could take Tobias inside and I nodded, being out in the cold was probably not a good thing. The three women went inside. Kate said these exact words, "what an adorable child, I could eat you up, oh yes I could." I watched Tobias' eyes widen, alarmed, as the door closed behind Tanya. "You have a son. how very interesting and truth be told, unexpected, Brian...weren't you the one saying love is nature's trick on the mind." I frowned and expected as much to happen from Eleazar. "Alot has happened" I answered him, we stayed outside as I told him the entire story how it all went down.
Eleazar listened to me the entire time without interuption and he said "so it seems the Voltori's life of moral curruption knows no limitations, and the woman you spoke of, Sarah has played you well." I did not like hearing her name, I said nothing as he made his observations "It's interesting, from what I have heard and seen today, the Mother and Son are both Enhancers." I stared at Eleazor. "My son is a what?" I asked, curious, of course I knew my son was gifted, I had experianced it first hand, but I did not know there was such a name for it.
Eleazar spoke "sometimes when a human is turned, they carry a powerful trait with them into their next life. Now this human....Sarah, as a human she was able to inspire those with music, as a vampire, she brought with her the ability to inspire...if you think about it, inspiration motivates us, it gives us a surge of energy. Now with Sarah you take that gift and magnify it, that surge of energy, that inspiration, she gives us is magnified, that energy pulsates inside us inspiring and giving sensations of ablility to do anything. But the energy does not stop at that, for those who are gifted, I believe that the energy that we feel from inspiration magnify's the gift simply because it is magnifying the energy we feel...I guess in simple terms, her gift is a form of empathy that enhances an ability by motivation, but of course this is all speculation. I can not say for sure since we have not met."
I listened to the complex and then simplified assumption of my friend, it did make sense to me since when your inspired you do feel motivated and produce energy to do what your inspired to do.
To tell the truth it was all too complex to me I just told myself she inspires and supercharges gifts that's it. I asked about my son and Eleazar folded his arms and leaned against the car his words are still ringing in my mind.
"Your son's ability is difficult to understand even for me, from what I gather he too is a enhancer. While the Mother enhances gifts, his gift is a flip of her gift, you told me your son has the ability to supercharge the senses of another vampire drastically. I can not say what the full potential of his gift is because you have not told me much about it. He may have the potential to enhance his own senses someday or not...all we can do is wait."
As soon as Eleazor finished tha,t some glass shattering inside the house could be heard, I immediantly bolted inside and followed my nose to my son's scent. I looked around seeing the three women and shards of the chandeliar crystals on the ground there was also shattered crystal near the coffee table "Where is my son." I said alarmed and Kate pointed up I saw Tobias swinging from the Chandeliar. "TOBIAS!" I yelled out of anger and fear.
I could still see that stupid book in his free hand my son let go and I caught him. I held onto him tight and thanked my lucky stars my heart could no longer beat, because if it could I would probably have had a heart attack. "What the Hell happened" I snarled Tanya looked at her sisters then spoke "the little one wanted to be let go so we let him go and he jumped on the coffee table and kicked down our crystal we were cleaning then jumped on the chandeliar" I looked at my son and he had a smug look on his face.
I did not want to spank my little man, I loved him far to much to hurt him so I instead took the Alice in wonderland book away from him and lowered him to the ground. He started reaching for the book. "I asked you to behave Tobias and you misbehaved on purpose, I am no pushover son, I am taking this book away as punishment." My son started to fret as he continued to reach for the book. The women and Eleazor continued to watch and finally my son gave up, the little punk kicked me in the shins and ran off.
I was about to excuse myself to go get Tobias, when Eleazor told me he would go get the boy. I nodded and watched him leave after Tobias. I sat on the couch and apologised for my son's behaviour and offered to replace the broken crystal and the chandeliar. I told the women "The only one who could get the kid to behave was his mother." Tanya approached me "and where is she" she asked in a curious voice she came up close to me, "Dead" I answered it was a lie of course, but she was as good as dead.
Tanya looked sympathetic and came to me and hugged me. "I am so sorry for your loss," she said softly, there was something else behind that tone of voice, I don't know. Garret came out from the back and Kate hugged her mate. "Finally back from hunting" she said, "yes, but I am alarmed, I saw Eleazor running after a terror. is Eleazor having him for a snack?"
That little 'terror' as you so kindly put it, is my son." I said. Garrett apologised, claiming he did not wish to offend me, I said to him "no you were right on the mark, he is a little terror, but he is my little terror" I said with affection. I loved my son with all my heart and while it's true, his misbehaving has annoyed the crap out of me, a small part....very small part finds it amusing that he is so feisty another trait he shares with her.
I stood up and walked to the window and saw Tobias run fast with Eleazor behind him. Carmen came over to me at the window and watched as Eleazar tried to tackle Tobias, but missed and went through a tree. Carmen's laughter echoed around the rooms of the house, Eleazor looked directly at the window and smiled, seeing his mate Carmen. "I should go out there and help him" I said out loud but Carmen placed her hand on my shoulder "no, no, allow me" Carmen said and went to join Eleazar in chasing my son.
I watched Carmen run to my son and Kate & Tanya along with Garret walk to the same window. "Wow your child is fast." Garrett said. I nodded my head and could not help, but feel pride as my child outran two adult vampires. Tanya looked at me and I glanced at her she was an attractive female. "I think we should go help Eleazor & Carmen, besides I wish to play with the child." Kate & Garret went outside to join Carmen and Eleazar "good luck, your gonna need it" I said with pride.
Tanya placed her hand on my arm and smiled "you love your child very much." I nodded, "of course" I answered her. I watched my son get cornered by the four adult vampires they each ran at my son, he jumped up and the four ran into each other. Tobias landed on the tree branch and I sighed, "wow smart child" I nodded, "damn straight he is." I said with pride. I had to admit ,I was nervous with my son evading the vampire coven. Tanya kept rubbing her hand on my arm, her touch felt nice, I smiled. "Has your son always been so energeti?." she asked me in a friendly tone.
I shook my head "he is always quiet, I have only heard him speak on one occasion, he used to be extremely well behaved, but since Sar....she left, he has gradually become more and more chaotic." Tanya moved in close to me 'oh I see, he seemed to be distressed that you took that book away" she spoke. I nodded my head "Tobias' mother used to read the book to him all the time." I spoke my voice becoming cold and emotionless. Tanya rubbed my back comforting and I thanked her and left her to go outside.
I looked at my son he was still standing on the tree branch while the four vegetarian vampires looked up directly. I placed a hand on my hip annoyed. I was still afraid that Tobias would fall and hurt himself. I went to the tree "Tobias you get down this instant." I yelled my voice full of Authority, it was a parental tone.
Tobias looked at me and shook his head, "Come on little man" I said, my son looked at me and we both failed to notice Carmen climbing the tree. She jumped and tackled my son out of the tree. "Tobias" I yelled out of concern. Carmen fell onto the ground she broke the fall and held Tobias so he was safe, my son gave what I swear to be an evil little chuckle. I ran to Carmen and Tobias and thanked her, before I could snatch my son out of Carmen's arms ,Kate took Tobias and hugged him tightly "Such a mischievious child, but completely adorable none the less." She ran inside with my son, I was about to say something, when Eleazar suggested that I leave Tobias in the women's care.
I looked at my son as the women walked off toward the house with him, Tobias looked alarmed as the females resumed smothering him with affection. I smiled and hoped he suffered all the incessant female babling and pointless gossip that should be a good punishment for my son. I watched as they were at the doorway I waved to Tobias with my own mischievious smile on my face and he scowled at me.
I went to the car and asked Eleazer to jump in and at the same time hid the book, Alice in Wonderland under the car seat. Eleazer asked why we were getting in the car and I told him so we could go hunt, he told me that when he meant hunt he meant wild animals and i sighed. It was so easy to forget that the Denali's were not right in the head.
I climbed out of the car and left with Eleazer. While we hunted we did not comminicate much, when hunting, we vampires tend to unleash our instincts to kill, I found myself a Wolf and ran towards it and fed off it. The creatures foul filthy blood touched my mouth and I consumed it, I disliked the blood of this animal. I finished hunting my thirst wasn't gone, but it was at satisfied for now. We finished hunting and returned to the car. I could hear Tanya speaking to her sisters "He is such an adorable child and so big, are you thinking what I am thinking?" It was Carmen who was next to speak "Clothing shopping for the child, what a marvelous idea....lets take Brian's car it is big enough for all of us.
I heard a low grunt and realized it was my son, I had a dark smile on my face, The ladies ran out carrying Tobias he was struggling despretely to get free and I said "My, my, what a perfect Idea ladies."
I pulled out the car keys and threw it, Kate caught it "Just a few rules I ask you to remember
1. Do make sure Tobias has his seatbelt on in the car.
2. Drive at a reasonable speed.
3. Never leave my son unattended.
4. No dressing him in Pink or sailor outfits or dresses this includes Kilts.
5. ..."
Before I could finish Kate grabbed Tobias and placed him in the car, Carmen climbed in beside's Tobias "For crying out loud any more rules and we can send him off to boarding school or something."Kate said, at that moment I considered it, it sounded tempting. "you know your right, forget rule four." Tobias looked at me horrified and I chuckled "Have fun ladies and remember rules one to three," The ladies were all in the car with the seatbelts on they drove off to go shopping.
I searched through my bags to look for my laptop and decided to spend sometime on my own reflecting on today's events and my son's behaviour, I wondered what the women were doing with my son now. I would find out soon of course, I am afraid I must leave now I am going to go spend some time with Garrett and Eleazar.
