Future, 2020

"She's over here!" cried a voice in a distance.

"No!" a young woman whispered. She took off running at full speed through the forest. Her midnight coat moved in beat with the wind that blew past her.

Run! Run! Run! Got to get out of here! Her mind screamed. She hid behind a large tree to catch her breath and to check to see if they were hot on her trail. She slowly moved her head to the side and look behind. Her senses told her they were lost but will catch the trail quick.

"Damn!" she muttered. Taking a deep breath she took off. Now and then she would look to see where they were. After about an hour of running she knew they gave up. for now.

She looked up to the sky and the pale moon glowed through the dark clouds. It's lovely, but now's not the time to admire nature, she thought. First things first I need to find shelter for tonight and at dawn I'll leave for my mission. Touching her crescent moon necklace she softly said, "I won't fail you all."

She walked around for a few minutes and found a cave. Checking to make sure none of the wildlife lived there, she made a fire and fell asleep.

By the time she woke up it was almost six. "Better cover my trail," she said aloud. Just as she was about to start a man appeared.

"I knew I'll find you, Christina," he sneered.

"Really? And how long did it take you David? I thought you and the others were resting."

"Those morons are! They don't know that in a hunt a hunter should never stop until their prey is dead."

"Am I the prey?" she said with shock. "You know, I was always taught that the vampire is the hunter and the weak humans are the prey. But wait! You're one of those 'special' humans, aren't you? Oh my, I'm so scared!"

"Oh how you mock me. Once I get rid of you and all of your family, friends, lovers, and any single person with this curse, I will die happy." He then threw a small cross at Christina's feet.

Christina stared at the cross and then at David. "What the hell is this? What are you trying to do, convert me to death?" she grinned.

"You are suppose to burn at the sight of holy things!" he yelled.

Shaking her head, she picked up the cross and threw it back. "I guess after watching all those 'vampire' flicks you think that whatever Hollywood does that's the way to kill a vampire? Seriously, I thought you knew better than that." She was about to walk away when she heard a click. Turning around, David had a pistol pointing at her head. "Take one more step, you die where you stand," he gritted out.

Hissing, she whipped out a knife and threw it at him. He ducked and the knife just missed his heart. He was about to shoot but she was gone.

"Just great! How can I do this if David's on my trail?" Christina cried out in frustration. In her heart, she hoped he killed him. Serves him right for the pain and suffering he brought upon us! Her mind told her otherwise and she hissed. I rather help Mom and Dad stop the hunters, but this is more important. The sooner I get to the plateau the sooner I can come home and fight for freedom! She smiled at the thought of actually being free from the fear she grew up in.

As she ran, time felt like it stops. As a little girl she enjoyed any activity that had to do with running. She remembered her mom saying, "She got her spirit from me." That was a time where she never experience fear for the first time. It wasn't until she was five when she understood that her family was different. She was different. Closing her eyes, memories of that night filled her brain. "No!" she said sternly. "That was the past and the future depends on you. Time to forget that night."

Opening her eyes she was filled with determination and nothing was going to stop her from her mission. "I'm coming for you Calista."

To be continued......

Hey so what do you think? I know our favorite characters weren't in this chapter but the next one will, I promise. By the way, my football team has made it in the finals and so the next chapters might take awhile to be updated. Go Big Reds!!!
