Sylvia took him to the hospital after his tantrum. He had a fever from it, and he became a little sick from his anger. She was a very good mother and taught her children well, but why would her Angel of a son act so violently and moody? The doctor a dit it wasn't Sylvia's fault. Luke's real mother drank alcohol while carrying him which that means, Luke has fetal alcohol syndrome. It causes violent mood swings, temper tantrums, and compulsive behavior. Sylvia was worried about him because this can effect his behavior with everyone else around him, and his self esteem.
A few days later, Sylvia founded out that she was pregnant. Karrie was excited that a new baby is going to walk around the house and get into everything, but Luke was very excited. He wanted the new baby to look up to him, like he did to Karrie. He wanted a baby to look after, and play with. The whole family was excited, until five months later, the mood around the house really changed. Sylvia thought hard about Luke and the baby. She afraid that he could hurt the baby. Not on purpose, but still Sylvia and Kurt talked about it, and they're going to take Luke to a foster home. Karrie knew about it, and she hated the idea. Her and Luke were playing on the stairs, and Karrie was worried about him. Luke: What's wrong Karrie? toi look sad. Karrie: I am. Luke: Did toi get in trouble? Karrie: No. Luke: Is it about school? Karrie: No. I can't tell you. Luke: Okay. Luke was curious why Karrie didn't tell him what was going on. She just wanted to spend as much time with him, before he left.
Two months later, Luke was placed in a foster home. Years and years passed by, and he went back and forth to foster homes, juvenile hall, and institutions. He had a hard time making friends, going to different schools, and dealing with going to one family to another. One jour when he was thirteen, a family adopted him. The couple's names are Stephen and Jackie Burkheart, and they have two kids Lauren (15yrs old) and Kevin (8yrs old). Stephen is a tattoo artist, and spends a lot of time with Kevin, playing video games with him. Jackie is a model and a cosmetics artist, who spends a lot of time with her spoiled daughter Lauren. Lauren is a spoiled hair obsessive princess, who is a wicked nail artist, who thinks the world revolves around her. Kevin is a shy little genius, who skipped two grades, and he's also deaf from a car accident, but he's a really nice kid. He doesn't hurt anyone ou anything, but he does pull pranks on Lauren. Even though Lauren is spoiled and bratty, she'll do anything for Kevin, and stands up for him. When Luke arrived at his new home, he couldn't believe how beautiful it was. Since it was winter, the house was like a big, beautiful modern cabin, and it looked like a place that a couple would rent out for their honeymoon ou something.
Kevin watched through the upstairs window, and saw Luke get out of the car. He was excited to have a big brother. He ran down stairs, and as soon as Luke and his new parents opened the door, Kevin hugged him. Jackie: *using sign language and talking at the same time* Kevin, this is Luke, and he's your new big brother. Kevin: (in sign language) Wow! Hi Luke! Nice to meet you! Jackie: He a dit nice to meet toi too! Luke: Cool! How do I say, ''I'm glad to be your big brother.''? Stephen: Like this. *shows Luke the phrase in sign language* Luke: Oh okay. (in sign language) I'm glad to be your big brother. Jackie: Kevin, can also read lips, so toi can speak and use sign language at the same time. Luke: I heard he was a genius. Jackie: He is, trust me! Okay, let's go inside, it's freezing out here! The snow's getting worse! As they walked inside, Luke was amazed! The house was so big and beautiful.
As he was looking around the living room, Lauren came down stairs. Lauren: *using sign language and speaking at the same time* There toi are Kevin! I was looking all over for you. toi scared me! Stephen: Lauren, he's here. Lauren: Who is? Stephen: Your new little brother. Luke: Hi! toi must be Lauren. Lauren: Yeah, so? Luke: So, I'm here, and I'm going to live here. Lauren: Okay, here are the rules: 1) Stay out of my room 2) Hurt me ou Kevin, I will kill you. 3) Stay out of my hair products. Got it? Luke: .........Maybe. I won't hurt Kevin because I don't hurt people. Lauren: Whatever. Jackie: Lauren, we just brought him home, go easy on him. Luke, don't mind her. Lauren's a little possessive about her things, and she's a little spoiled, so don't feel insecure. It's not you, okay? Stephen and I don't want our children feeling insecure ou bad about themselves, and since toi are now one of our children, we don't want toi feeling close minded. Be open with us, like if something's bothering you, if someone is pressuring toi to do what toi don't wanna do, ou if toi like someone, tell us. We'll help you. Luke: I have one question: Will toi guys help me with sign language? Jackie: Yeah! Don't worry, we'll help toi out and everything. Luke: Thanks! Stephen: I'll montrer toi where your room is, so toi can unpack and settle for a minute, because dinner's almost ready. Luke: Okay. I'm starvin' anyways. Stephen: So, were toi originally from New York? Luke: Yeah! I've been everywhere in New York, except I didn't know there was a few forested areas here. Stephen: Yeah. Jackie and I wanted a calm place to live in, so we wouldn't deal with the noise and racket that comes from the streets and stuff. Also, it's safer here. Anyway, do toi like your new room? Luke: Yeah. It's freakin' cool! Thanks. Stephen: toi can also decorate and paint it, when the weather warms up. What type of room do toi like? Luke: A room with a lot of Harry Houdini posters, and enough room to practice plus illusions. Stephen: Oh, so toi like magic? Luke: Yeah. When I was newborn, Sylvia and Kurt Walker adopted me. I lived in their house, until I was six. They have a daughter named Karrie, and she was like my seconde mom. She gave me a magic set for my birthday. Stephen: Do toi miss her? Luke: All the time. I followed her everywhere, and we used to pretend to be story characters from old books. I miss her so much, but I know I'm gonna like it here though. Luke unpacked and looked around the house for a while.
Kevin was outside, playing in the snow, and a snowball hit him. It was his friend, Mandy. Mandy is thirteen, and lives suivant door to Kevin and his family. She played with him all the time. Mandy: * using sign language and speaking at the same time* Hi Kevin! Kevin: (in sign language) Hi Mandy! Do toi want to come over and have dîner at my house? I also have a new big brother! Mandy: Really? Cool! I'll come over and meet him. First, I have to ask my mom. Kevin: (in sign language) Okay! I'll wait here! Kevin waited for a few minutes, and Mandy came out with a smile on her face. They both went back to Kevin's house and asked Jackie if she can stay. Luke walked into the living room, and saw Mandy. He just stared at her. He thought she was pretty. Jackie: Luke, dinner's almost ready. Mandy: *using sign language and speaking at the same time* Is this your new big brother? Kevin: Yes. This is Luke, and he just came here today. Mandy: Hi. Luke: H-Hi. dîner was reayd and everyone enjoyed themselves, except for Lauren. Lauren: Do we have to eat with the ''it''. Mandy: Oh, I'm sorry princess. Are toi distrought because toi gained three pounds, and is having a bad hair day? Lauren: At least when I was thirteen, I didn't dress up like boy. Stephen: Cool it Lauren! And we've told toi a million times not to bring your lipsmackers lip gloss to the table. So Mandy, how's your band doing? Mandy: Okay, I guess. It's hard to get a cabriolet, gig around here. Jackie: How about we just try to talk to Luke plus tonight, since he's new here. Nothing against toi Mandy. It's just that Luke's new to the family. Mandy: I understand. I wouldn't mind talking about him. Luke: There's this new movie coming out soon. It's called "BeetleJuice'', and I really wanna see it. Mandy: Yeah! I l’amour Tim burton films! Have toi ever seen that short film that he did called ''Vincent''? Luke: Yes! That was awesome! That film got me into Edgar Allan Poe and Vincent Price par the way. Mandy: Have toi ever heard the song ''Thriller'' par Michael Jackson? Vincent Price has a voice cameo in it. Luke: Vincent Price also did the introduction for Alice Cooper's ''Black Widow'' song. Mandy: I listen to Alice Cooper all the time. He inspires me to write. So does rose Floyd. Luke: I don't think I've ever listened to rose Floyd before. Mandy: I'll introduce toi to them. Luke: I'm really big into Led Zeppilen. Mandy: Yeah they're so cool. Aerosmith is awesome too! I can't believe they did a song with Run DMC. Jackie: *whispers to Stephen* I think they like each other. Look at them talk about all the stuff they have in common. It's so cute!
Later that night, Luke was in his bedroom, and Kevin came in. Kevin: salut Luke, want to prank Lauren? Luke: *using sign language and speaking at the same time* Yeah, sure! What are we going to do? Kevin: We're going to put a bucket of this weird goo I have on haut, retour au début of the door , and when she opens the door, BAM! She gets drenched in green slime! They both grabbed a bucket, and poured green slime inside of it. They tied a rope around the bucket, put it on haut, retour au début of the door, and waited for Lauren to open the door. They waited for half an heure for her to come out. Five minutes later, Lauren opened the door, and green slime covered her body! Lauren: Ugh! Eww! Luke! Kevin! How could you?! Luke: *laughing hard* Hold on....I...can't...stop...laughing...you're ....completely....covered...in...slime! Lauren: Ugh! You're so mean. Mom, Luke and Kevin pranked me again!
Jackie and Stephen were talking in the living room, looking through Luke's adoption papers, and information. Jackie: It says here that Luke has fetal alcohol syndrome, and has been in many foster homes, institutions, and juvenile hall. Wait a minute, he's been in juvie? Stephen: How? The kid's sweet. What if he's pretending? Jackie: No Stephen. I know he's not. I have a feeling that he's not what people think he is. I think Luke's problem has just gotten in the way over the years. Stephen: Do toi wanna talk to him about this? Jackie: What if he feels bad about talki- Lauren: *interupts Jackie* Mom! Look what Luke and Kevin did to me! Jackie: Kevin! Luke! Get down here! Luke: What?What is it? Jackie: *using sign language and speaking* Kevin, did toi talk Luke into pranking Lauren? Kevin: *in sign language* Yes Mom. I'm sorry. I didn't want to make her mad, I just wanted to get back at her for being mean to Mandy today, and calling her an ''it''. Jackie: It's still not very polite of pouring slime all over your sister. Luke: I'm sorry too. I just want to spend time with Kevin, and I wanted in on the prank too. Lauren went too far on the ''it'' stuff. I mean, c'mon. Mandy's a tomboy, and Lauren is a straight up girly mirror lover. It's not the end of the world. Jackie: But still no pranking. Lauren: Haha! Jackie: I'm not finished with toi yet, young lady! The world doesn't revolve around you. toi should know that par now! toi have two brothers now. One of them is a genius that has trouble making Friends and needs a little help, and another that needs to be welcomed into a new home. Luke's been through a lot over the years, and he needs a family to spend time with, and people to love. Now, go take a shower. You're grounded for your commentaires about Mandy, and that harsh welcoming towards Luke. Tomorrow, toi are going to Mandy's house to settle this, and not be so rude all the time. Lauren: Fine. I'm sorry I'm such a spoiled brat. Lauren stomped to the bathroom. Luke and Kevin went to Luke's room, and Luke showed him some illusions he was working on. Luke liked his accueil so far.
I hope toi enjoyed it! Ch3 will come soon!
