Dying Souls
Chapter 1: Discovering the Cullens
Disclaimer: I do not own The Night World or Twilight
I let out a shriek as pain shot down my neck, I was breathing rapidly, my heart thumping irregularly.
"Morgead, no! Stop it, please!" I yelled at him as he bit my neck, thrashing around like a dog with a chew toy. He was drinking without pause, he was totally unaware. Tears streamed down my cheeks, and I was sobbing.
"Please" I said almost a whisper as the blood was leaving my body, I could feel the darkness taking over, closing me off from the outside world. He drew back; his eyes were black and crazed, and his hair was dark and disheveled. It was obvious that he was hungry, but he didn't care about her anymore. She felt herself fall to the ground before everything went black.
"Ha-ha, good work my child, you still have much to learn but she was blinded by love and trust, an easy kill if you ask me. Bah! Love and trust, never trust anyone! And love is weak, something you won't need" Demetri said harshly, Morgead's eyes were blank and dark, he had no control; obeying whatever the strange man told him. He felt a pang and his heart wrench as he saw Jez lying on the ground. He felt tears of self anger spring to his eyes, he clenched his jaw and his fists balled up, he felt a growl building in his chest before he lunged at the man standing next to him.

Mary-Lynette stumbled back as she saw Ash's dark figure walking menacingly up the hill, he was smiling a dark smile looking directly at Mary-Lynette.
"You wouldn't dare, Ash! You wouldn't!" she screamed at him, she fell back, laying there having given up. Tears were welling up in her eyes as she laid there, arms raised above her face as if to fend him off. She heard a growl and saw a wolf lunge at him, she was breathing quickly, scared of what it would do to her. But she heard Ash fall and saw the dark shadow of the wolf mutate, when she saw it again it was a dark skinned boy with short black hair.
"Don't worry, he won't hurt you. My name's Jacob, I'm here to help" the boy held out his hand for her to take, she lifted her right hand and pulled herself up. She ran to Ash, kneeling next to him.
"Oh, Ash. What happened to you?" she whispered sadly, she pushed back the hair on his forehead, feeling the faint tingles of electricity; verifying the truth about them.
"Wait, you mean to tell me that you know him?" Jacob said in disbelief, she nodded slowly.
"He's my soulmate" she said, and then Ash woke up.

Rashel jumped back, glaring at Quinn, shaking her head, they fought but not like this; this was serious. What the hell are you doing? She yelled at him telepathically, he was insane. Nothing Rashel, he said with an insane smile on his face, she hit him with her bokken, hard. He flinched but didn't fall, his hand flew to his leg and she had her chance. But before she could attack she saw a black shape hit him, knocking him to the ground. She was rocked by the strength of the attacker, she just stood there staring at him. He stood up in one swift movement, standing there for a moment brushing off his clothes. And then he grinned, he held out his pale hand. He was bulky, and had a lot of strength behind his muscles, he hard short dark curls and a dazzling smile.
"I'm Emmett" he said pleasantly, I took his hand; he had an enormously strong grip. She shook his hand and released her hand from his vice grip, stretching her hand.
"I'm Rashel, what are you?" she asked, cautiously. He let out a booming laugh, shaking his head.
"I'm a vampire, I thought that you would know! Your boyfriend here is one as well!" he said, she looked at him, her eyebrows close to her hairline. She knew that Quinn was a vampire, she had known since the first time she saw him. She blinked her eyes, and fixed a glare at him.
"I knew that! And you know what I do to people like you?" she asked pleasantly. He looked at her and saw the glare, his smile faltered and he was looking at her crookedly.
"Well, not exactly, but. But. Listen! You'll want to kill the ones who did this to him instead, and I happen to know who's in charge of this particular event. All you have to do is follow me and I'll bring him with us" he said, as if concluding a very difficult answer. She nodded and went to Quinn, she looked down and saw that he was unconscious. She sighed and shook her head, John she thought to him, she saw his eyelids flutter. He focused his eyes on her, and she saw realization dawn on his face.
"Oh, Goddess. I'm so sorry Rashel, oh man, did I hurt you?" he said quickly lifting himself into sitting position, placing a hand on her cheek lightly. She nodded and smiled a tight smile at him, getting up again.
"He's awake, we'll come with you now" she said to Emmett, he nodded and walked forward purposefully. Quinn turned to her, with a curious look on his face, he raised one eyebrow. She sighed and started telling him what had happened.

"So, what? Every member of Circle Daybreak has turned on his or her soulmate? You've got to be kidding me!" Jez said angrily to Jacob, Hugh was in one corner with his head back whispering 'Oh, Goddess' over and over again.
"Imagine what this will do in the head council of Daybreak! It's gonna be horror" Rashel said out of another corner of the room, her soulmate Quinn nodded his head slowly with one hand over his eyes and the other on the small of her back.
"Poor Lady Hannah" Jade whispered, Mark was shaking his head disbelieving.
"Well, we can't sit here doing nothing! We have to go out there and do what we can to find the people in charge of this!" Morgead said angrily, his forehead was bleeding and he had a bandage strapped over it.
"That's where we come in" Carlisle said, everyone turned to him, they groaned simultaneously.
"Not another one! We've already met 7 of you, including nearly 10 werewolves! What next? A talking gorilla?" Quinn said rising to his feet, Rashel put a hand on his wrist, and he slowly sat back down again.
"I am their leader, we are a clan, and the wolves are extended family" he said looking at Jacob, he inclined his head.
"I am the Alpha of one of the wolf packs that you saw today, and Sam is the Alpha of the other wolf pack. We are not joined but we are still family" he said seriously, looking at all of them in turn. Just then four more people walked in.
"Edward, Alice, Bella and Renesmee, we were wondering where you had gone off to" Carlisle said, Edward was weary, looking at everyone in the room. Bella was protective, her searching eyes probing every space in the room carefully. Alice and Renesmee were merely curious, going around the room introducing themselves to people. Just then they heard a noise, like a keening coming from outside the door.
"Get away from her!" a voice said menacingly, they turned towards the door and all of a sudden, they heard a crash.
"Thierry!" a girls voice screamed, they could hear heavy footfalls and shuffling.
"NO! HANNAH!" Thierry yelled, they heard a crash and felt a vibration against the side of the room, they heard groans and then someone walked through the door. He was tall, and he had a stricken expression on his face.
"She's gone" he said, and everyone gasped in horror.
