(Note: The new characters introduced in this chapter are characters created by the 12th Doctor a year ago, but he never put them up. I've decided to change that).
You nod your head and smile. "I'll be there faster than Garfield finds lasagna." Hera nods her head and then turns to run back the other way." You smile and you're about to climb up to your treetop home when you see a light going on in the house right next door. If your memory served you right, that was another house that was just sold and had a new family moved in. You decided that since your mother raised you to be a polite and hospitable person, you'd pay them a visit." In 15 minutes, you arrive at the door of the new neighbors with a strawberry cake. Of course, it was only big enough for humans to eat, but then again, it's the thought that's important. You walk up to the human-sized knocker at the bottom of the door and then you ring it loud. The sound creates an echoing noise that alerts the residences.
The door opens up and you look and see three pairs of huge hooves. You look up and see three succubi. The matriarch of the family had ivory-oclored skin with red cat eyes and black lips that looked natural. Her hair looked like it was half dark purple and half electric blue but it was clearly dyed. She had a decent figure with a large butt and hips and was wearing a gothic outfit much like Noreen. However, to your surprise she didn't have wings. There was also a young male human on her shoulder that looked to be only 19 and was playing a handheld video game before he saw you and put the game on pause. You take it that the young man was her son, seeing as mixed families were common in Screamtown.
Then you turn and get the attention of the other two succubi smiling down. Both of them looked like the daughters of the older succubus. There was a red-skinned 22 year old bubbly looking succubus who shared her body shape with her mother and was dressed like a cheerleader. From the looks of it, she was still in college. The oldest child was a 25 year old succubus with lavender skin and LOS. She was more stoic looking but she smiled.
"Welcome to Screamtown," you say. "I'm Rick." The oldest succubus bends down and picks you up. "Oh," she says. "How darling. Look children. We have a new neighbor. My name is Holly Telburn and these are my son, Connor, my daughter Michelle, and my oldest, Amber." Michelle giggles and looks down on you. "Yayzies! We have a new friend! I'm Michelle!" You give a look. "Uh, I kind of figured that out." Connor slides down his mother's arm and shakes hands with you. "It's good to meet you. Come on in." All three of the succubi walk in and carry you as you look at the interior of the home. It was gothic in design and had video game posters on the wall.
"So, Rick," says Holly. "What do you do for a living." You smile. I work at Maddie's bakery. I even made a cake for you, guys. Of course, it might only be big enough for Connor." Holly walks into the kitchen, places you and Connor on the table and holds up the cake. She gives a nervous look but shrugs. "It's the thought that counts. I myself work as a guard for a warehouse by the docks. It pays well. Connor just graduated from high school and works as a copy boy. Michelle is still in college and as you can see, she's on the cheer squad." You saw that Michelle was still practicing her cheer moves and dancing. However, in contrast, Amber was looking rather stoic and staring out. "And Amber?" you ask. Holly smiles. "Amber works as an architect. Plus she actually pays rent around here. Don't mind her, she's a little distant. But she loves us all the same."
You nod your head. "Sounds a lot like my mom. She's a huge archaeopteryx harpy that works as a lawyer. She has 7 sisters. In order from oldest to youngest, there's a tone-deaf canary harpy, a gloomy raven harpy, two athletic twins consisting of a kestrel and harpy eagle, a baseball loving oriole, a shaman crow and a pelican diver with Glutos. Then there's my dad. He's a real wiseacre. Finally there's my sister, Olga Rowling." "The Olga Rowling?" asks Connor. "The writer? That's amazing. Mom's a bit of a writer herself. Holly lets out a laugh. "Well," she says. "I dabble in dark poetry and dark fiction from time to time. By the way, is there a goth bar around here." "Yes. One in Autumn Avenue." Michelle giggles. "Oh, that's great. Maybe mom will find a plus-sized goth girl." Holly lets out a sigh. "Michelle." Michelle just blushes and Holly shrugs her shoulders. "To be honest, I'm divorced. It didn't work out with my previous marriage. But hey, I'm not one to dwell on it. Oh, by the way, Rick. Would you stay for dinner?
You nod your head. "I'd be honored to, Mrs. Telburn. What are we having?" Holly gave a smile and her kids smiled as well. "Well, to celebrate the fact that we're new in town and we're going to surely make lots of new friends here in Screamtown, I'd say that tonight, we're going to have a nice delicious feast of...."
