Vanessa and Clair Pierce, Goth twins who were now the cousins of Lucy, walked into The Spiked Pit and gazed around at the gothic club, liking what they saw. Then they spotted Lucy and approached her.
The two Goth girls were 17 years old and had decided to stay with their cousin until their mother had recovered from her recent accident. A train wreck had forced their mother into a hospital and she was still there right now.
"Welcome to Lake Point, girls," Lucy said, smiling.
Vanessa and Clair exchanged odd glances. They didn't remember Lucy being so happy, but it was good to see her, as they hadn't been together for at least six months.
"Come on, let's take your stuff up to my apartment," Lucy said. By now, her age had increased to 18 years old, making her a little taller, and her hair had darkened quite a bit, looking more like a brunette than a blond, but her skin was still quite tan, not that anyone really noticed, though. As the twins noticed, she was much happier than the original Agatha. Oh she wasn't a ditz or anything like that, but she wasn't nearly as brooding as the former club owner. She took great satisfaction in her management of the club and in being part of the Goth crowd. What wasn't there to be happy about?
They entered the apartment above the club and Lucy's cousins proceeded to remove their outfits (black gothic dresses, similar to Lucy's) from their suitcases and store them in the guest room closet. Then they all returned to the club to talk about their trip and such, at least until the usual patrons started coming in.
