Hadley Random Legacy: Gen. 3 Chapter 2

 Izzy's POV

So I tend to forget that our little alien half-sister exists a lot, but surprisingly Mom is pretty attached to her. Which you'd think she might not be considering Luna is the lovechild of my father and a freaky alien with a probe. 

Rufus is such a traitor. He had the audacity to "break up" with me! He said he couldn't handle the guilt anymore and that he always had feelings for Sophie instead. Whatever. They can have each other.

Rufus: "Sophie, there's something I need to tell you..."

Sophie: "What is it?"

Rufus: "I have feelings for you. I always have." 

 

Sophie: "Oh Rufus, I thought you'd never say anything! I have feelings for you too!"

The coward never told her about us though. I wonder what sorts of feelings Sophie might have then...

But the two are too busy ogling each other lately. It's honestly a little sickening.

Rufus was Sophie's first kiss. I wonder if Rufus will ever have the balls to tell her who his first kiss was. I'm definitely not going to be the one to tell her. Despite how it may seem, I do love my sister, and telling her would just hurt her. There's no point, especially now that Rufus and I are done.

The asshole had the gall to strut through my room after he slept with my sister in MY shower! Dumbass probably thought I was asleep, but I got a peep of him out of the corner of my eye. I should've popped up and scared the living shit out of him and wipe that smug smirk off his face.

So I was trying to be a good big sister to the alien spawn when who would dare to show up again?

THE GODDAMN ALIENS TOOK ME THIS TIME! I AM GOING TO FIND THEM WITH MY BIG TELESCOPE AND I AM GOING TO END THEM!!!

Still in a pissy mood after being probed, I headed down to the Fall Festival the next day and scoped out this cutie. He's actually one of my coworkers, and his name is Earnest Bergman. You know the little beret is actually doing it for me?

I was trying to put the moves on Earnest but then my weirdo Uncle Theodore had to show up in a stupid gnome hat.

Izzy: "You're a werewolf, not a gnome, dumbass."

Theodore: "I am menacing. I am THREATENING!"

Izzy: "You are a dork is what you are." 

Still oblivious to the history between me and her new boyfriend, Sophie continues to bust ghosts almost every night.

She even got this new scanner thing which can find ghosts which even I had to admit is cool.

Mom finally got out of the lifesaving game. She retired at the top of her career, and the city even gave her a medal or some shit. Finally she can stop running around in that Baywatch getup at her age. Thank god as it was getting a little embarrassing. 

Luna the alien spawn is a toddler now. It's kinda crazy to think how much older we are than her. After Mom and Dad kick the bucket, Sophie and I will have to finish raising her. That's just great. I don't hate the idea of having kids like Sophie does, but I'd rather they be actually my own kids.

Sometimes when I get stressed out, I go outside (my happy place) and play in the leaves like a kid again. Don't judge. 

Sophie has graduated to convincing ghosts to move on voluntarily instead of sucking them up with her vacuum cleaner, which is cool I guess. Therapist to the dead. She hates when I call her that though.

Our cousin Leonas is out here ripping off Steve's look from Stranger Things. He's Aunt Evie's only child. Apparently his dad was Ethan Bunch who kicked the bucket not long after he was born so he doesn't even remember him.  

Aunt Evie and Leonas recently had a ghost problem too but Sophie was there to save the day.

Evie: "This is very strange and disconcerting."

Sophie: "And that's why you need to move on. There's nothing left for you here. Time to cross over to the other side!" 

Dad is still obsessed with the cat, Tiger. I sometimes forget we have a cat too, but he sure doesn't. Sometimes I think he loves that cat more than he loves us...

Speaking of my dad, I can tell that he's disappointed in me. He thought I'd be married by now and ready to settle down.

Oliver: "You're better than this, Izzy. You have a responsibility to this family."

Izzy: "Stop with the patriarchal judgment already! This is how I want to live my life, Dad, and you're just gonna have to deal with it." 

There's been a lot of undercurrents of tension in the house lately, judgment from my dad, Rufus acting guilty and awkward whenever he sees me, and of course Sophie still not having a clue. So what do the Hadleys do in such a situation? Throw an insane Halloween costume party of course.

Dad thinks he's Maverick from Top Gun apparently. Uncle Theodore is a detective or something, but he still hasn't lost that ridiculous gnome hat so he's not exactly undercover... 

I dressed up like a hot dog (classic), and Vinga the werewolf just decided to come as a Goth wannabe I guess.

 

Maid: "I'm getting out of here before anything too weird happens."

Probably a smart idea. Mom is some sort of Victorian lady. 

Calliope: "Fetch me my fainting couch. I can hardly breathe in this thing." 

Aunt Evelyn apparently didn't get the memo that this was supposed to be a costume party. Aunt Hazel matched her ginger hair with an orange astronaut costume.

 

Rufus continues to shower Sophie with affection (probably due to guilt). He barely even tried with his costume, just dressed up in the scrubs he wears to work at the hospital. Sophie was a cheerleader. Of course.

I shouldn't even be surprised that Uncle Henry came as a rockstar. I'm not even sure that is a costume. It's probably just what he wears every day.

Henry: "This party is boring as hell. When are we gonna have some real fun around here?" 

Aunt Evelyn apparently found a cop costume somewhere, but even she was less than impressed with the party. Damn, next time I'll let Rufus throw the party. He's the party animal.

Henry: "Hahaha, you dressed like a wiener!"

Izzy: "Shut up, old man!" 

Albert: "Don't listen to him, Izzy. Us wieners have to stick together." 

I was about to throw hands with my uncle. Now that would have livened the party up. At least Al was on my side.

I really should've kicked his ass and then kicked him out of the house. I mean who eats food like that? He's an animal. Seriously.

Is he even house trained? Do I want to know?

Henry: "...wiener."

Izzy: "I will end you."

Calliope: "I think you make a lovely wiener, dear."

Al: "That's what I said." 

Oliver: "What is wrong with this family?"
 

Family  Updates 

You guys are cousins! Or technically half-cousins but still, gross. Stop it! Well, I knew this would start happening eventually...

Not long after the party, Hazel became an Elder as well. Now all of Gen. 2 is elderly.
