"Where are we going to go?" My sister sounded completely and utterly out of breath. I understood why, however, because we had been running for quite some time. "Wherever it is, I need to cover our trail so he cannot follow."
The 'he' my sister was referring to was Masin. A man with no known last name. Correction, he was a vampire with no known last name. His story was that he was a drifter and had forgotten his last name because he never had a use for it. I wondered why everyone believed his story, but when my sister put a spell on me, I soon realized why. Masin had compelled everyone to believe it, just as he had compelled me to be his girlfriend, to keep his secret, to let him bite me and suck my blood, and to do whatever it was that he wanted me to do.
The spell she put on me was the spell to be able to remember all that I had been compelled for, and to never be able to be compelled again, without Vervain. We were running that same day because of something I remembered him telling me. He said if I ever did anything against him, he would kill me. I believed him. There was nothing that he felt remorse for, and nothing he thought twice about.
"We go separate ways. It is the only thing I can think to do. You mustn't argue. He could be anywhere at this very moment." I felt the tears sting my eyes as the wind blew my curly dark brown hair into my eyes, but I stood firm on my word.
My sister, with her brown hair and bright blue eyes, meant the world to me. She was my best friend. However, I guessed the fact that we were twin sisters helped that fact. Although, it was because she meant the world to me that I had to send her away from me, just as I separated myself from my parents. I had tried to get her to stay back at the house with mother and father, but she refused. Her presence around mine would only endanger her life and I couldn't stand that thought. Splitting ways would save her life, as well as give her the chance to become a better witch than she was human. This, on that day, was not the case.
"I do not think it is a good idea, but I will not argue the point." She never realized it, but her voice was cracking, which broke my heart. I hated it when she cried. "Good luck and stay safe." She added in a whisper.
"I am not sure of when I shall see you again. I will keep in touch. I am not sure how, but I will do my best." I tears filled my eyes. "I do love you, my sister. Be careful." Then I felt as if we were being watched, so I quickly ended our conversation. "I must go."
I grabbed two handfuls of my dress and ran as fast as my legs would carry me. I knew it was a slim to none chance I would outrun a vampire but what else I knew was that he would know I knew everything when he realized I was gone. I wasn't taking any chances with Masin. When he found out, he would either torture me, or kill me on the spot. The Lord only knew how long it would take for him to find out.
