The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Disclaimer: I own nothing but a DVD. Note: This is my first LXG story so please bear with me.

The League sat in the wooden chairs of the dining room. They were talking about getting members to fill the empty chairs around the table. Mina Harker and Tom Sawyer were the only ones that didn't join in the conversation. The two were to busy mourning, in their own ways, over the memories of one's lover and one's friend. The American sighed and got up without touching his food. Mina followed him with her eyes as he left the room. She at first didn't like the boy because he was just a boy. He seemed like he didn't care if he died today as long as he had fun. He actions said careless but his eyes held something different. A depth that anyone could get lost in. It seemed to be a longing for a deep friend or maybe lover. She got up and began to think of her own loss. True she hadn't seen Dorian in a long time and he did try to kill her but she did miss being with him. A sense hit her and nearly knocked her over. The strong sensation was coming from the American agent's room. The she figured out what is it was. Someone was hurt and it was an agonizing pain that was behind the closed door.

Tom lay on his bed while hot tears began to stream down his pained face. He had killed three people now. He didn't want Allan to die but he had caused it, he didn't want Huck to die, but he had cause it and he didn't want Sarah to die, but like everyone else he had caused her death also. His breath became short, as the pain in his chest seemed to wrap around him and squeeze the happiness out of him leaving him in pain. The blonde heard the voice of Huck again. His voice was harsh with pain and regret. Tom jumped off his bed and looked at his window. He wanted to open it so bad and scream so he didn't have to hurt anymore. Then a sudden pain in his heart sent him to back lying on the bed. He grabbed his pillow and screamed as loud as he could into it.

Mina felt her heart go out to Tom. She had to help him. She wasn't sure how but she was going to try. Slowly she opened the door. Tom lay on his stomach screaming into his pillow. Mina made her way to him and sat on the side of his bed, giving him a scare. He turned around quickly guns in his hands. Mina raised he hands in defense.

"I am sorry, Tom." Tom was not sure if she was apologizing for scaring him or for the ones he had lost.

"Mina, Go away. Leave me be." His voice was not harsh but quiet and rough.

"I am not leaving. You are in so much pain and it is very unusual about how much pain it is causing you. Tom I am here to help you." Her hand touched his long hair and brushed it out of his red eyes. This time he didn't back away he smiled.

~*~* Later that night ~*~*

Mina had promised Tom she would stay with his all night to make sure he wasn't plagued my nightmares. She was now starting to regret it. She hadn't eaten in eight days and her hunger was starting to get the best of her. They were landing tomorrow and she thought she could wait till then. Tom began to move violently in his bed. His hand went to his neck and his long fingernails did the unthinkable. As he slender hand went down his neck blood began to come to the surface and ran down his neck. Mina wanted to scream. Tom woke up from the pain of scratching himself. His brown eyes searching the cause of the pain.

" I hate when I do that!" He scolded himself. Then his deep eyes went to the vampire in the corner. "Mina, Are you okay?" Her eyes began to go red as he hair went darker. He then realized just how hunger she must have been. "Umm.Mina maybe I can help?" Tom was thankful for what she had done for him but he wasn't really sure if this was a smart decision. He tilted his neck to the side as he looked into the mirror he had walked too.

"I promise, I will restrain myself." This voice was not Mina's but the vampire within that was known to lie. She overtook him as he stood there. He was waiting for a small prick as she placed one hand on the back of his neck and the other on his back. The small prick never came instead a harsh bite took its place.

"Oh, Ouch Mina you're hurting me." Tom said slowly. He was beginning to feel dizzy. The room started spinning. "Mina, MINA!!! Stop!" Tom yelled. Then his world went black.

Please review. I don't accept flames or any thing that says, "This is horrible" kind of things.
