A fine spread of food and drink had been set in the courtyard beneath the walls, and even though the stone looked gloomy usually, tonight the air was filled with a festive feeling. Standing on a stoney perch, Bronx was scanning the skies around the Castle, occasionally sniffing the night winds and giving off quiet coos of worry. Coming up behind him, Lexington trooped on the stones and lept up beside his fellow Gargoyle - who at times like this, acted more canine that Gargoyle - giving him a reassuring pat on the head. "Worried about the other, huh boy? I am too. I hope the twins like the gifts we made for them." "I'm sure they will, Lex." commented Brookyln, who was coming up the stairwell to the parapet behind them. "Heaven knows you've spent nearly every night for the past six months working on them." Brooklyn was proud of his Rookery brother, proud of all of his fellow Clan for the work they put in for this special night. Tonight was the night of the twin's tenth birthday. A momentus occasion at any rate, but as leader of the Clan, Brooklyn had offered a special night of celebration for the twins: with food, music, and fun for them, one and all. Preparations had taken nearly a month for the final touches, and those were just now coming to and end. Broadway had finally mastered some of the Human tasks of cooking, and was now below putting the finishing touches on a huge birthday cake for the twins. Lexington had offered to build a pair of special gifts for the twins, while Hudson had offered to use his recently mastered skills at writing to make some stories for the twins to read. Angela had requsitioned some strange boxes of materials for her contribution, and had worked on them in secret for months, but she assured Brooklyn and the others that her gifts were now ready to be given. Brooklyn shook his head privately. Gargoyles in the past had never made such a fuss over birthing days. And anything a gargoyle owned - clothing, trinkets, and the like - were more likely plunder from their enemies and victims. But, he reasoned, time changes, and since part of their extended family was now Human, certain Human customs had to be adpoted. "How long will it take Goliath, Elisa and the twins to get here?" Lexington asked, looking over his shoulder at Brooklyn, breaking into his revery. "As long as it takes for Goliath to fly them over from their home. Remember, he has to carry three people, now. I'm going to check on Hudson. Keep an eye out for Xanatos and his family, and for another... guest that he invited." "Which guest is that?" Turning to go below, Brooklyn shrugged, "He said we'd know them when they arrived." * * In the kitchen below, Broadway was putting the final touches on his masterpiece: a large, two-tier layer cake, smeared with white icing, and colored with dots and swirls. He was puting on the writing that said, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY! DAVID & JESSICA!," when the door to the kitchen opened up, breaking his concentration. "I'm almost ready! Boy, the twins are going to love this cake." he exclaimed, extenting a taloned finger to take a taste of some of the leftover frosting that was still in the mixing bowl he was using. "Yum! Almost as much as I loved making it!" A soft voice chuckled, "Well, let's never say you didn't love your work, Broadway." Turning slowly, Broadway's eyes fell on Angela, who was carrying a pair of long boxes under one arm, and a set of trays and glasses on her other hand. Her usual attire was gone, replace with a freshly-cleaned tunic-dress, strategically slit to allow her wings and tail to protrude from the back. Her hair, usually gathered in a unrully pony-tail down her back, was now groomed and twisted into a single long braid that hung across one shoulder to hang down in front. Gulping softly, Broadway nearly dropped the bowl he was holding, but her quickly recovered it, asking, "I do, don't I? I mean... I love doing things for the twins!" Setting her trays down, Angela turned to study the cake and it's design, even taking some of the frosting herself. Smiling, she commented, "It's sweet, just as it's sweet of you to be doing this for the twins." She stepped closer to the Husky Gargoyle, but Broadway stepped back a bit. "Aww, you don't have to say that, Angela.." he said, using a bout of mock humility to cover up his slight embarasment, slightly uncomfortable that he and Angela were alone. Placing her packages down, she deftly retreived the mixing bowl from Broadway's grasp, saying, "But, It's true! The twins are going to love this! And, I know my father is going to be doubly pleased with you. Just like I am now." With that she stepped in closer, and the big Gargoyle back away, finally coming to rest against on of the large freezers that stood next to the table. "Angela, um... Please, you've got to understand!" he began. "I mean, I apreaciate your, uh, sentiments, but I don't think it would be far to the other.. I mean my Rookery brothers..." Angela shushed him with a single finger, moving close so that her lithe body was pressed against Broadway's. "Why wouldn't be fair? Father said that I should pick whom I wanted, when the time was right. And now I've decided. Lexington is busy with his gaggets and electronic-things, and Brooklyn is so busy with being our leader, so here you are.." Boradway tried to find someway to be what he thought was fair, "You forgot about Hudson." Angela made an amused face. "He's older that any of us, Broadway! I may admire him, but no, I've made up my mind who I want. I want YOU!" Broadway swallowed hard. "Angela, let's be serious, for a minute-" She silenced him with a shake of her head, "No, YOU be serious! Why can't you accept that I want you as a mate, and no amount of arguing is going to make me change my mind? Haven't the nights we've spend together in the past meant anything to you?" Broadway stuck out his chin, stubornly. "Of course! But, Why choose me over someone like Brookyln? He's the leader of our Clan now!" Angela smirked, "Because while he is brave and all, he isn't as sweet and kind as you. I remember when that last Hunter came after us again, and tried to use the twins as bait to trick us into a deathtrap, and it was YOU that shielded them from harm during the final battle, even thought Elisa and Goliath were just as capable of protecting them." Broadway blushed at this admiration. "We had to! Gargolyes always protect their own." "Well, if that is how you react to my Human Siblings, I can only guess how you'd treat the child we'd bring into this world." Nearly laughing at the shock in his eyes, she added, "Yes, I do want to had a little gargoyle with you. Don't you think we could? Don't you think I'm a fair enough prize for a mate, Broadway?" As she said this, she pulled back, showing offer her sleek curves, flaunting her beauty before her fellow Gargoyle. Broadway could only sign in surrender. "Oh, Angela..." Taking her into his brawny arms, he cuddled her up to his big chest, smiling into her eyes. Laughing softly, she surprised him once more by trying out something her father told her that he and Elsia did, and she gave him a soft kiss on his mouth. He stiffened briefly, then seemed to melt and get all shivered. "Oh, Angela, you win. You alway do, I guess" Grinning, she squeezed him once, and then turned to retrieve her packages. "Never forget that, Broadway. Now, hurry up and finish that cake! Goliath and the others will be here soon!" Picking up her bundles, she left the kitching, swishing her tail as she walked out the door before pausing to give him a parting wink. (something she saw Elisa do to Goliath many times). Turning back to his work, Broadway could only smile at himself. Well, maybe he thought it wasn't fair that Angela choose him over his Rookery Brothers, but, then again as he remembered a bit of Human wisdom that Hudson had once shown him, he agreed with it one-hundred percent. Sometimes life isn't fair. ----- <TO BE CONTINUED> ----- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Path: pegasus.odyssee.net!sunqbc.risq.net!newsflash.concordia.ca!news.nstn.ca!ott.istar!istar.net!winternet.com!nntp.primenet.com!news.fibr.net!imci4!newsfeed.internetmci.com!in2.uu.net!news.palantir.com!news.IntNet.net!suncoastonline.com From: <saturday@suncoastonline.com> Date: Sun, 21 Jul 96 01:05:36 -0500 Newsgroups: alt.sex.stories Subject: STORY: Gargoyles - "Generation Quest/Pt.1" Message-ID: <tcpnntpd.16.7.21.1.5.36.2782374618.996729@suncoastonline.com> Organization: SunCoastonline.com NNTP-Posting-Host: suncoastonline.com X-MajorTCP-Version: MajorTCP/IP [1.88-2] Lines: 148 The City of New York was fast approaching dusk. Watching the sunset from their expanded home atop the old brownstone building, Elisa DeGuy sat on the open patio in a wing-backed chair with a smile of contentment. It was momments like this that made her happy to be alive. With her new promotion as Cheif of Dectectives, and her marriage to her husband going on ten years strong, and getting stronger with ever passing day, she felt that she had all she could ever want in this world. Sipping a warm cup of coffee to ward of the fast-approaching autumn chill, she continued to watch the oncoming sunset in silence. Briefly, she heard the doors to her home open, and a presense crossed the roof to her side. A warm arm encircled her shoulders in a loving squeeze, and she slipped her hand up to give it an affectionate squeeze in return. "Hmmm, How are the kids?" she asked, tilting her head back to smile up at her husband. "They are nearly ready for their visit, Elisa." Goliath DeGuy said, returning her smile with one of his own. "I suspect they have been ready all week for this reunion." "They should be," Elisa replied, putting her cup down to stand next to Goliath. "After all, it isn't every day they get to meet their favorite relatives. Although I can't help but wonder why Xanatos wanted to be there." Goliath shruged. "What ever his reasons, I'm sure Xanatos won't disturb the importance of this day. After all, with out him, I'm not sure we could have found a way to explain my sudden appearance in your life." Wrapping her arms around him, Elisa gave one of her half-smiles at that bit of information. "True. Although I trusted Mom and Derek not to go too balistic when We both showed up at the 20 year family reunion, married, and with the twins, I'm not too sure everyone else didn't. I know for a fact Matt tried to track your `history' down, but I thank God that Xanatos' people know their business." Goliath returned her hug, holding her close. "It is a shame that we won't be really together until dawn tommorow." he sighed. "Don't worry. Tonight is the night for YOUR family. We'll spend our time afterwards." she told him, giving him smile that was full of promise and love. Just then, the doors burst open again, and both adults turned in their embrace to smile at the two children that came barreling out onto the roof. "Momma! Poppa! We're all ready to go to see Uncle Brooklyn and the others!" the little girl was shouting, coming up to grab Goliath's leg before her rush carried her off the roof. At ten-years old, Jessica was becoming a very precocious lady. Blessed with her mother's honey-tan skin, raven-black hair (cut recently in a pageboy style), and her father's intense eyes, she was going to be a real beauty when she was older. "Da! It's almost sunset! Are you going to do that `magic' again?" asked her brother, David, who was more like his father in manerisms at times, but tonight he was caught up in the excitement of this night. Like his sister, his skin was tan, but his eyes were a vibrant green - much like one of Elisa's grandparents - and had dark brown hair rather that black. Both twins were dressed in matching leather jackets and pants, with leather walking boots: Jessie's in white, David's in Red. Goliath checked the position of the sun, and gave another heavy sigh. "Yes, David. I have to change soon, so you and your sister need to step back" Bending down, he gave each child a hug that crushed the two of them to him (albeit gently), before he straightened up to give Elisa one last wuick embrace. Kissing Goliath lightly on the lips, Elisa stepped back, taking each of the twin's hands to lead them back a safe distance. Even though the twins had seen their father change several times, Elisa still knelt beside them, whispering words of encouragement as the sun began to dip behind the horizon. "Don't worry, kids. Daddy is going to be fine." As usual, the first twinges of pain came only after he made the concious thought to change, just as the sun began it's departure away from the night. Then the pain grew, as his entire body began to shift and twist as organs changed, bones lengthened and grew thicker, and skin changed from rich tan to smoky purple. His back humped and expanded, as the protuberances that grew out into wings unfurled and spread, while a long tail sprouted from his tailbone out. Claws spread from his fingers and toes, and teeth merged and lengthened into jagged rows with distinctive canines. Even as before, Goliath tried to contain his agony, but the pain was always too great, and he bellowed out in a roar that could be heard from Flushing in Queens, to the Bronx Heights. But, thankfully, it was never long in staying. Eventually, he calmed down long enough to gather the shreaded remains of his clothes before donning his usual attire as a Gargoyle - A modified breechclout and tunic, cinched with his old leather belt with the brass buckle. Once the transformation was complete, he turned to face Elisa and the twins, who waited patiently for him to finish with his changing. Once, when he had to do this with only Elisa present - before the twins were born - he didn't fear her reaction to his changing. However, he tried to keep his changes secret from his Human children for the longest time, until David and Jessica caught him doing it when they were just turned four years old. Thanks to Elisa's patient explinations about Puck's spell - and thanks to their inherited intelligence and understanding - the twins quckly lost their fear for his `magic' form. They even considered it their special Secret, even long after they met the other members of their extended "Family". Elisa, bringing the twins, stepped up to Goliath, her eyes slightly misty as she gazed on his Gargoyle form. This was the form that she had know so well, even though it was his Human-like heart and soul that she had fallen in love with from the ver start. "Up you go, kids! Time for us to go meet with the others." she told them, watching as David and Jessie scrambled into Goliath's outstreatched arms as he knelt to gather them to him. Stepping up behind him, she climb up his back, hooking her arms around his shoulders as she made sure not to get caught in his wings. Once the twins were settled, clinging gleefully to his arms, and Elisa was secure on his back, Goliath stepped up to the edge of the roof, throwing his wings out to catch the night winds bafore stepping off. "Is everyone ready?" he asked, smiling first at Jessie, then David, and finally Elisa. When he got three affirmative nods, he said, "Okay, hold on tight! Here we GO!" With that he stepped off, diving into the wind with the happy shreiks of the twins echoing off the buildings around them, catching the first updraft and riding it into the night. Next stop, the Castle on top of Xanatos' Tower. * * * From a rooftop away, three sets of eyes watched the departure of Goliath and his family for as long as it took for them to get out of sight, then they vansished into thin air without a trace. A lingering trio of voices could be heard, if anyone was there to listen, saying: "The die is cast/The Players are new/Let the Quest be given/ and let those that can, Do!" ----- <TO BE CONTINUED> ----- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Path: pegasus.odyssee.net!sunqbc.risq.net!newsflash.concordia.ca!news.nstn.ca!ott.istar!istar.net!winternet.com!nntp.primenet.com!news.cais.net!hunter.premier.net!newsfeed.internetmci.com!in2.uu.net!news.palantir.com!news.IntNet.net!suncoastonline.com From: <saturday@suncoastonline.com> Date: Sat, 20 Jul 96 23:53:46 -0500 Newsgroups: alt.sex.stories Subject: STORY: Gargoyles - "Generation Quest/Pt.1" Message-ID: <tcpnntpd.16.7.20.23.53.46.2782374618.996429@suncoastonline.com> Organization: SunCoastonline.com NNTP-Posting-Host: suncoastonline.com X-MajorTCP-Version: MajorTCP/IP [1.88-2] Lines: 32 Hello, Peg Leg Dukk Here again... Hopefully, you have enjoyed my previous story about the Gargoyles "The Gift", so I hope that you will enjoy the sequal story I have tenatively called "Generation Quest" This story kind of ties in the end of my story, and that of another user's story entitled "Passions" - where we saw that Demona and MacBeth buried their anamosities and decided to love one another for all time, even having a child (thanks to aid from the Weyrd Sisters) - and this story focuses on the next generation of the characters: the children of three of the major character pairings. Of course I mean Xanatos and Fox's son, Elisa and Goliath's children (yes, I said children), and Demona and MacBeth's Child.
