I was running after them, harkat had taken the right tunnel following around 3 vampets had taken the left. I killed the two that had fallen behind and now ran after the there'd.

The tunnel was dark dripping wet with water and god knows what ells. I rounded a corner to find that it was a dead end the vampet had fallen down in the corner his cloke was around him he held it close the hood up, he looked to small and his hart was beating fast I could tell he was scared.

"Pleas" he whispered, his voice was soft and gentle, to soft for a mans but it can't be.

"Tack down your hood" I commanded, a man I could kill but women have always bin my downfall and I know it.

"Pleas…. I ca-"I brang my sowd up to his or her neck they moved up agensd the wall and shouted

"don't kill me" and dropped the hooded vale, she stood there in front of me she had long dark hear a chocolate colure and bright green eyes she was wearing barely any think she looked like some sort of gypsy with purple and blues swinging round her hips in thin strips. She was beautiful "I don't want to die" she sobbed

"Im sorry" I said bringing my sowed up agene.

"Pleas I cant-I don't want to die" she cried. I don't know why I did it but I did it anyway I dropped the sowd and grabbed her by the arms pulling her down the tunnel, we were at a crossing I shoved her forwards.

"Run" I hissed

"Your not going to kill me" she asked shaking her head "I don't understand, why"

"Don't push it" I said tacking a single step forwards "and run before I change my mined"

She didn't say anything she just ternt and ran like I said. as she ran a strip of the thin almost see throw material flow from her clothing picking it up I started to walk back to the cave near to were I first spotted the vampets, I shouldn't have let her go, twirling the cloth in my hand it was soft, vancha is gonna kill me, but her eyes were so full of fear non of the others were, why did I have so much trouble with women.

Turning the last corner to the cave I looked about my eyes settling on the little grey gye walking in to the entrants. Harket mulds a little person, he had bin human once upon a time but he couldn't remember it. "Hay" I called.

"Hi Darren, did you get them" he had to ask oh god what do I say well nothing else to say but tell him the truth, he'd find out any way.

"ummm not that good actually I err let one go" I didn't think it was possible for harkets eyes to get any wider giving the facked that he had no eyelids but they did.

"You what" he said

"Look she was…." Oh god big mistake.

"Ohh I see……you let it go …..Because it was a….girl" he said accusingly, but the point of it was right "when are you going to learn……… Darren"

"I know" I shouted "but you weren't there she looked so, so scared" I sighed "we need to tell vancha though"

"Whats that" he asked pointing to my hand. It still held the piece of cloth from the girl.

"Of her……..fell when she ran" passing the piece to him I sat on the rock in the side of the cave.

"Look what I found crawling out the sewer" it was vancha and as he said it he tossed a body in to the room. The person staged then spat at him when she realized who was in the room meaning me she ran over to me and hid behind me.

"He wont help you luv" he said grinning at her "he's just like me"

I berried my head in to my hands, when vancha had walked into the room I had stood up wish I hadn't now. "Oh god" I mumbled

Harkat was steering at me "her" he said looking from me to the woman at my feet.

"Uh hu"

"What are you going on about" the raged vampire asked from were he stood at the door.

"Darren……..let a vampet go……..looks like you found….it" the grey person said

"You're Darren Shan" the girl said from were she crouched

"Yer" I muttered "I thort I tolled you to run"

"I did"

"Not fast enough"

"I tried"

"Not hard enough"

"Well sorry" she said sarcastically

"Whoch it" I growled

She stood up and looked at me "well you're cuter than he said, and you don't look bad to me" she started circling me

"Who said" harket asked

"Why your old friend Steve Lenard" she said his name bitterly

"Who are you" I said

She grinned the grin was the same as his but I didn't think she could have bin who she said she was.

"Why, my name is meeker, meeker lenard"
