I stalked down the street after the unknowing couple. They had no idea what was to come for them; their fate, their death. My feet made no sound as I walked over the concrete pavement. This was who I was, what I did.

"I had a really great time tonight." A pretty blonde girl said to the young man next to her.

"Yeah me too." The boy replied, smiling down at his date. "Maybe... maybe we could do this again sometime."

They stopped walking at the corner of the street. I paused where I was, hidden by the shadows.

The girl turned and said "I'd like that."

He leaned down to the girl's face, hovering just above her lips. Before either of them could move closer a figure moved in at an impossible speed, snapping the boy's head back by pulling his hair. The girl shrieked and backed up until she reached the wall.

I frowned, confused. I squinted to see who the figure was but couldn't from my position. I crept forward, ever silent. The figure with its teeth, sharp fangs, poised over the boy's neck suddenly plunged in. Warm blood oozed into the figures mouth, I could smell the faint smell of it and I got closer to the group.

The girl was still with shock, and had become quiet as she witnessed the scene before her. I realized I had to act now or else I'd lose my chance. I crouch forward, ready to spring.

I launce myself at the figure's back and push them down along with the boy. I pull back and roll, bringing the person with me. As I sit on top of them and punch this person a few times they manage to gasp out a few words. "Miss Rose. I didn't... expect...to see you...so soon."

I try to hide my shock when I recognise the voice. "Nathan?"

I lean back and my eyes adjust properly to the light from a nearby lamp post. The blonde strigoi smiles at me with his devilish grin and I leap up off of him.

The boy had fallen unconscious and the girl had crawled over and was now whimpering at his side.

"What the hell are you doing out here? I thought you were going back to Russia?" I asked Nathan. I was quite surprised to run into him back here in Pennsylvania, especially this close to the Court (and only partly ticked off that he had interrupted my night).

"Oh I am going back to Russia. Tomorrow actually. Why aren't you happy that you get to spend one more night with me Rosemarie?" His snarkiness reminded me of Christian Ozera.

"Oh I'm always happy to spend a night with you." I winked at him although I was slightly repulsed. "It's just you surprised me is all."

"Ah well, how about a toast? To one more night." With that he grabbed the unconscious boy rather roughly and shoved him at me. I caught him easily, watching as Nathan picked up the girl crying on the dirty floor and pushed her hair away from her neck.

"Drink up." I lightly touched the boy's neck before biting into his soft flesh. The blood warm in my mouth. The moon shining down on us all.

This was who I was: Rose Hathaway, strigoi.

This was what I did: Kill.
