Allyson's POV
We go to the dining hall. Everybody turns their head around when my grandmother and I enter the hall.
"Wow, Allyson! I didn't know you have a voluptuous and beautiful girlfriend." Cris exclaims. I rolled my eyes. In the past, my friends and schoolmates always think my grandmother is my girlfriend because of her younger looks. Seems she is not aging at all. So I can't blame them. Elliot gives him a piercing look that makes him shut his mouth. I chuckled.
"She is not my girlfriend, Cris. She is my one and only grandmother." I said.
"What?!" They said in unison as some lose their grip on their cutlery, unconsciously. The other choked while drinking water.
"Is it true?" Lex said as he looked at Elliot to confirm.
"Yes. She is our grandmother." Elliot smirk.
"Oh, how come?" Alex said.
"How come I am not aging?" My grandmother asked, smiling... looking at their surprised faces.
"Well, perks of being rich. Of course, I do have anti-aging creams. And besides, I was married young. So, I'm young when I got Allyson as my grandson." Grandma said.
"Oh,"
"Oh,"
"Oh,"
"Oh,"
I pulled the chair at the center of the table. My granny sat on the chair. I pulled the left chair beside her to sit.
"Ok, boys, let's enjoy our snacks," Grandmother said with a smile. Then they followed my grandmother without a word. I noticed that Colton and the twin stealing glances at my grandmother. So I clear my throat.
Colton's POV
The food was great! We enjoy eating at the dining hall. My attention was caught by Allyson and the beautiful and voluptuous woman beside him.
"Wow, Allyson! I didn't know you have a voluptuous and beautiful girlfriend." Cris exclaimed. Allyson rolled his eyes. Elliot gave him a pierced look that made him shut his mouth. Allyson chuckled and said,
"She is not my girlfriend, Cris (he paused and looked at him with teasing eyes). She is my one and only grandmother." Allyson said.
"What?!" We said in unison as my cutlery fell on the table. I couldn't believe that this woman was old but her appearance looked like twenty years old.
"Is it true?" Lex said as he looked to Elliot to confirm what Allyson revealed.
"Yes. She is our grandmother." Elliot smirked.
"Oh, how come?" Alex said.
"How come I am not aging?" The woman asked.
"Well, perks of being rich. Of course, I do have anti-aging creams. And besides, I was married young. So, I'm young when I got Allyson as my grandson." Allyson's grandmother explained.
"Oh," I have a feeling that she was not telling the truth. I sniffed the air. A peculiar smell emitted from this woman's body.
The woman sat on the chair. And Allyson sat beside her.
"Ok, boys, let's enjoy our snacks." The woman commanded with strong power. I don't know what power she was emitting but I could feel that we should follow her. Without a word we did. I couldn't help but glance at that woman. I snapped when Allyson cleared his throat.
"Oh, by the way, guys. My name is Alice. Alice Alder." The woman said.
"And welcome to Die Letzte Grenzburg Castle." Alice continues. Well, the castle's name was hard to pronounce.
After our snacks, we went to one of the verandas of the castle. I don't know what they call this place. We drink tea.
"So you are here for a mission?" Alice said.
"Yes, granny. I was assigned here and they are my team." Allyson said. Alice's eyes seem to change their color but I'm not sure, maybe it's the reflection of the sun rays that reflected in her eyes.
"Hmm. Maybe I should leave you for now. Your bedroom is ready. I have some things to do. Bye, guys. Feel at home." As she put her cup on the table she stood up and then walked away.
"Ok, granny. Thank you." Alice waved her hands without turning her face to us as she continued towards the door.
"You know, I thought your granny is weak and had many wrinkles but I was wrong. She is so young and stronger as a bull, I think. This is why your granny doesn't like New York. " Cris said.
"Stop talking about my granny. Let's get into business. Let's make a plan. How can we start this operation?" Allyson said. We agreed to focus our attention back on our mission.
After we finished the plan Allyson took us on a tour of the castle and then to our bedrooms.
"Oh, my God! It's amazing. Lots of bedrooms. Maybe I will be lost in here." Cris said excitedly like a child. Allyson smirked at him. Allyson gave us elegant rooms. More elegant than five-star hotel VIP rooms.
"Wow! This is amazing!" The twins were amazed by the interior designs of their room. My room was beside them. Next was Cris's room.
Cris slammed his body into the soft big bed.
" Oh, this is so cool!" Then like a kid, he jumped cheerfully to the center of the bed.
"Ok, we leave you here, Cris." We closed the door and went to our bedroom.
"Hey, I'm tired. I leave you here feel at home." Allyson said.
"Ok, go rest. Don't worry about us. And thanks." Allyson walked away to leave my bedroom. We entered my room.
I checked my bedroom. It's the same as Cris's room. So elegant and luxurious. I went with the twins to peek into their room afterward. They share the same room. They want it this way. As we expected it's the same as Cris and I bedrooms, only it has two beds. I closed the door.
"This is so freaking amazing man!" Lex said.
"Yeah," Alex replied. I sat on the bed.
"Hey, Colton. Why are you quiet?" Alex noticed me.
"Well, I feel odd at this place and Alice." The twin looks at each other.
"Yes. We feel a little bit peculiar, especially to Granny Alice. Man, she is so young looking that...that only..." Lex stopped his sentence.
"That, what?" I asked.
"Do you think it's an anti-aging cream that makes her young? You see, even her body skin is so young?" I nodded to Alex.
"And continue what is your mind, Lex. What do you think?"
"It's very odd, Colton. I mean only a supernatural being can age slowly. Her moves are strong as a young. Granny Alice did this effortlessly. In the human world, even the old look younger but her or his movement should be affected by aging, right?" Lex explained.
"Yes. I agree with you." I said.
"Me, too," Alex said. Then, we stared at each other with one mind.
"Then what do you think?" I asked.
"Dude, I believe... she is a supernatural creature like us. But what kind of creature she is, is what we should know." Lex commented.
"Well, I smell peculiar at her... even Elliot."
"Me, too." Lex.
"Me, too." Alex.
"But I cannot pinpoint what kind of smell is that but it seems familiar to me even this place. I'm not sure but I instinctively feel it." I said.
"Oh," they both surprised at his revelation.
"Did you feel Deja Vu?" Alex said.
"Seems like that," I replied.
"We, too." They said in unison. I frowned.
"What is happening?" Lex mumbled.
"I think we should investigate discreetly." The twins nodded in unison.
"So, just mind-link to me if anything you see odd or something."
"Yes, Gamma."
"Ok. Let's go to sleep now. We will start to work tomorrow." I said.
"But wait, Gamma, how about Allyson? I mean did you feel something peculiar with him since he is the grandson of Granny Alice? We don't feel anything odd from him." Alex said.
"Same. I feel his human. But I doubt it. The first thing we should know is if Allyson is her grandson or not because I don't smell odd from him. If he is really her grandson, he should smell odd too, right? " I questioned more myself than them.
"Yes." As they said in unison.
"Ok, let's have a good rest tonight," I said to them.
"Yes, Gamma." The twin said. I go back to my room to sleep.
