Secrets in Hiding

Disclaimer: I do not own Secret Circle

Chapter One: Kidnapped

John Blackwell stood on the sidewalk leaning against his car in front of the school. To anyone who looked he just looked like a normal person, but he was not normal. John Blackwell was evil and his evil plan was still on his way. John smiled as he thought over his perfect plan for his six kids. It had been hard work getting all those witches to trust him and have kids with him. Truthfully he had been lucky that one of the witches had had twins. Now John had a new plan. He had decided he needed to raise two of his kids.

The question was which two kids. His youngest two, the twins, were out of the question because they were two young. They were only two and he did not want to raise the kids from that young. While he could sense Claire would have a power to read energies like her mother it wasn't worth it. They were just too young. That left four kids left.

The smartest choice would seem to be his oldest two: Ryder and Lucas. They seemed perfect. From what John has seen Lucas at his young age already had a temper and Ryder was already a master manipulator. They should be the perfect choice, but something felt wrong. To John taking the two did not feel right. It would be so easy, but he could not just do it. Then John remembered his middle two: Cassie and Diana.

Cassie and Diana were from the Chance Harbor circle. That circle was the strongest of the ones that left Salem all those years ago. It had the strongest families in it and just to top it off the Blake's were the strongest family in the strongest circle. The Meade's were the second strongest family along with the Chamberlains. That made Cassie and Diana his strongest two children. They would be perfect, so that was why John Blackwell was in front of his daughters school.

He walked to the gate and looked at the playground. The kids had just come out not too long ago and John could see her. The blonde little girl playing on the monkey bars. She jumped down and her blue eyes turned to look at him. She could sense their connection. The dark magic that combined them both, but she wasn't moving towards him. John looked and noticed the teacher wasn't paying any attention to the children, choosing to instead read her book. The other kids didn't seem to care or notice anything.

John reach out to the girl with his dark magic. His dark magic sparked a bit of her magic and the girl came running over standing on the opposite side of the gate. John casted a quick spell to make sure no one walking past would pay any attention to the two. "Hello Cassie," John said as he used a spell to create a hole in the gate. Cassie walked through and then John repaired the hole.

"Who are you?" Cassie asked not really understanding why she came. She had just been drawn to the man.

"I am your daddy." Cassie eyes opened wide from shock. "And your going to be coming with me." John picked up the little four year old witch and put her into the car seat in the back of his car. He drove away without anyone noticing.

It wasn't until playtime was over that the teacher realized Cassie was missing. She looked everywhere in the playground for the girl and then in the school. She asked all the kids where Cassie was hiding, but none of them remembered seeing Cassie for a while. Finally the teacher realized Cassie had just disappeared and had to call the cops in.

-Chance Harbor a few days later-

Charles Meade brought his daughter to the park. There he saw Dawn Chamberlain sitting on a bench watching her daughter play. "Hi Dawn," Charles said with a smile. Lately the two had gotten closer. "Diana, why don't you go play with Faye and Melissa." Charles said realizing the other circle child was also there. Diana ran towards her two friends without a second thought

Charles sat down next to Dawn who gave him a smile. "How have you been doing?"

"Good," Charles told Dawn. "I can't believe it's been four years already. The time has sure flown. Diana is becoming a hand full."

Dawn laughed. "At least your daughter is an example of a good girl. My little Faye has turned out to be a bit of a trouble maker. I don't have to tell you how hard it is being a single parent at our age, but to be a single mother."

"I can see your point." Charles knew from the stories Diana told about Faye that the little girl had become a bit of a trouble maker at school, although the stories he heard did come from a four year old. While Charles loved his daughter he found himself zoning out and not understanding half of what the girl told him. "It must be hard for Faye not having a father figure in her life."

"It has to be hard for Diana not having a mother figure." Dawn came back. The two stared at each other not willing to say what the other was thinking. That they would be the perfect couple. That while the other couldn't replace the lost parent of their children they could take a role in the child life the the child needed. Neither realized they had moved closer to each other. That they were so close it looked like they were going to kiss. It was then that they moved away.

Charles embarrassed looked away from Dawn and over at the kids. He had been expecting to see the three girls playing with each other, but all he saw was Faye and Melissa. "Where's Diana?" Charles asked looking around hoping Diana had just gone to another part of the park.

"She's with Faye and Melissa," Dawn said and then she too looked and couldn't find the girl. "At least I thought she went to be with Faye and Melissa."

"DIANA,' Charles yelled out jumping up from his spot.

Dawn too jumped up and the two ran over to the playing girls, "Girls, where is Diana?" Dawn asked thinking Charles might scare the two girls in his worried state.

"Diana?" Faye asked looking at her mother confused.

"She came over to play with you a few minutes ago." When the two girls looked completely confused Dawn got really worried. "You did not see Diana?"

"I saw her," Melissa said innocently now remembering seeing her friend before.

"Where?" Dawn asked thinking maybe Diana had just ran off with another friend.

"She went with the man." Now Dawn was worried and she could see Charles freaking out not too far away from her.

"What man?"

"The one with the girl," Melissa said. Dawn continued to question Melissa, but the little girl had no more information.

Dawn looked at Charles. "I think we need to call the police."

John Blackwell drove the car with a smile on his face. It had been really easy to get both his girls. He looked back for a second to see the two sleeping in the backseat. He had thought Diana would be more trouble. He couldn't use the same trick he used to get Cassie in Chance Harbor. There was just too many witches around, but he hadn't needed to.

When the little girl ran away from her fake father she had stopped halfway to running to her friend. John recognized Dawn from where he stood and knew one of the girls must be her little Faye. Diana had stopped and stared at the two drawn in by just sensing the dark magic in the two of them. If John had been by himself it wouldn't have been enough to get the girl, but having Cassie by his side had sealed the deal.

Cassie had been crying because she missed her mom and wanted to go home, but John had casted a spell on her so no one heard her. Diana had seen the little girl and had just been drawn to her. John had been impressed with how powerful their sister bond was even though the two had never met and were only half sister. He would say their bond might be even stronger then Claire and Dylan even though those two were twins. Diana had run over at the perfect time while her father had been too busy flirting with Dawn. John didn't waste anytime, but he took Diana's hand and left with his two girls. It had been way too easy.

Now he was driving to a privet house he had set up weeks ago for them. It was completely isolated from the world. No one would question them or even know the two existed. John pulled up in front of the house. "Girls, wake up." John said as he started taking the two out.

Diana opened her eyes first and nearly flipped when she saw John holding Cassie. Diana might not even know the girl, but she was really protective for some reason. "Diana, be quiet," John told the girl as he took her out. Diana tried to run the minute she was out of the car but John floated her in mid air and brought them inside the house.

"Let me go," Diana yelled and started to scream. "I want daddy."

"SHUT UP," John yelled releasing some of her magic and throwing the girl a bit. "I am your father. Your real father and the two of you are not going anywhere." John put Cassie down on the floor and the scared girl ran over to Diana. "You can't leave this house. There's a magical ward making sure of that, so here's how it's going to work. You two are going to be good girls and do whatever I say. If you don't then you will be punish harshly." John smiled. "I am going to teach you two things. Wonderful things. I'm going to train you and when your older your going to help me complete a plan I have been working on for a long time. And look at it this way. Diana you now have a little sister and Cassie you now have a big sister." John knew Diana was older then Cassie by about a month.

The two girls looked at each other. They were scared and really wanted to go home, but they couldn't deny they felt a connection to the other. They wanted to be sisters and were happy when this man who claimed to be their father said they were sisters. "Why don't I show you your room. Tomorrow you start training." John started up the stairs not worried about the two trying to escape. Like he said they physically couldn't leave the house. He had made sure of that and even if they found a way to leave there was no where for them to go. They were in the middle of no where.

Diana looked at Cassie and held out her hand. She was the big sister here. Cassie took the hand and the two followed John Blackwell up the stairs.

-TSC-

Amelia freaked out when she heard Cassie was gone. She kept bugging he police, but after a month with no lead at all and no one seeing who took the girl the police had to give up. Amelia went crazy. She stopped working, sold her house, and moved back in with her mother in Chance Harbor. Ethan tried to comfort Amelia, but Amelia was far too gone. She didn't do much, only what her mother made her do. She had fallen into a serious depression.

Charles too freaked out. He tried desperately searching for his daughter, but the police once again had to stop looking after a while with no leads. The elders tried to find the two girls with magic, but when nothing turned up they had to declare the two girls dead. Charles nearly killed himself with drinking, but unlike Ethan with Amelia, Dawn was able to get to Charles. She helped bring the man she knew back and the two fell in love. Having Faye around helped Charles, not forget, but distract from his pain. Faye would never replace Diana, but Charles started to think of the girl as his daughter. Charles would never forget his daughter, but he was able to move on. He married Dawn and the two started to create a family of their own.

Amelia was never able to move on. She made Ethan leave her alone and didn't want anything to do with the circle's children. It hurt her too much. She had left Chance Harbor to protect Cassie and she couldn't do that.

No one was able to combine the two kidnappings. No one thought they could be by the same guy. The two girls were far away from each other and the only one who knew they were sisters was Amelia. Amelia was never able to get over her depression long enough to combine the two of them and even if she did she truly believed John Blackwell to be dead. There was no reason to believe it was him.

AN: Okay before anyone can say anything yes Lucas, Ryder, Claire, and Dylan are the same ones from the season two being posted on fanfic.
