Centuries they have been searching for my kind. There were only four of us in the beginning, don't ask who created us because even I don't know the answer to that one. All I know is once I was Egyptian, then I woke up in a grave yard hundreds of years later with a strange man called Victor commanding me to bring back the dead. Impossible or so I thought.
I was stupid and listen to the man that claimed he was a vampire and brought back someone with powers I had no idea I had. The man turned out to be a Lycan. I didn't know his name but he had long brown hair and he looked pretty pissed off to me. Looking over at me he looked me up and down. Confused on what else to do I follow my instincts and I ran. They didn't peruse me then.
Two hundred years later I finally caught up with another woman who claimed to have the same powers that I did. Proving it to me was easy for her she brought back some random person but then returned them to their grave a moment later. She said we were allowed to break the balance as long as somehow we repaid it. We stuck together for a few hundred years as she told me about the other two and what she could remember which was more than I could.
She told me about the war between Lycans and Vampires. I knew they were real after I brought one back from the dead but I didn't want to mention that to her. We knew about the wars but decided to stay out of them. Lila was my new companions name always told me "We didn't start the war, let them finish what they started."
However then Eve came into the picture. A young innocent hybrid. The daughter of Selene a vampire and a Hybrid whose name I could never remember. I could hear that both sides were after her. I tried to stay out of it I really did.
Walking through the city late at night just like I use to I could hear gun shots and a young girl screaming. Following the sounds I see the vampire I recognize as Selene fighting off what appears to be vampires but it's her against them and the poor girl is afraid. I had to intervene. Walking up behind one of the vampires I use my dagger and slit it's throat and it falls to the ground as I move onto the next. By the time all of them are dead...again Selene looks up at me confused.
"Who are you and why did you help me?" she asks me as she looks at me defensively.
"Trust me, you don't want to know. Get your daughter and get the hell out of here before anyone else sees you." I tell her as I clean off my dagger then put it back at my side.
Selene goes to her daughter as I can hear more people coming I put my hand on my dagger as a two men come forward. One looks incredibly familiar and the other just looks at me confused. They both look out of breath and then looks to Selene some relief she and the child were alright.
"Who's this?" the one man asks behind the man I recognize.
"No one of importance now get out of here. Hate to see any more death tonight." I say as I turn to walk off.
"You could bring them back though, just like you did with me." I hear the man's voice tell me as I turn back and look at him.
"You were a mistake. I had no idea what I was doing or who I was doing it for." Walking back up to the group. "I want nothing to do with either of your kind for all you are good at is killing one another."
"I haven't killed anyone." Eve mumbles.
Well she had a point there. I could hear more people coming and Eve started to shake again. Not knowing what else to do I knew I still had to help them to get them to safety. I looked between the four of them and knew that if I did this there was no was ever getting out of this war.
"Damn it, follow me if you want to live." I say as I turn and start walking.
I can hear them following me as I start to take an old secret passage to where I now lived with my friend. Good thing she wasn't home as often as I was. She would be pissed to know I helped them but what else could I have done? Going past an iron gate we walk into my home. It was simple use to be an old library and now it was whatever we made it.
"How do you know they won't find us here?" the 2nd man asks speaking up.
I walk over to a computer an type in the password as other screens come on and show the surrounding area of the library. Traps were set everywhere since my friend was paranoid but turns out that her tricks might come in handy now.
"I would know about it and be sure to strike them down before they got here." I say as I turn back to them. "I know Selene and Eve now who the hell are you two?"
Dark haired man walked forward a little bit with the other man as Selene and Eve look at the library that we converted.
"I am Lucian, the one you brought back from the dead." He tells me then he looks to the other man. "This is Sabas. He is also a Lycan."
"Great, now the place will smell like wet dog." Another female voice calls out. "Fiona, what did I tell you about getting involved with their kind."
"I didn't have much of a choice. Besides we couldn't stay here much longer anyways." I say as Lila walks up to them and observes them.
"You were the one in love with Sonia, I remember you. He's the one who got her pregnant and then Victor had her killed." Lila explains looking to me.
"Victor was always an ass, what makes you think that would have changed?" I ask as I take off my coat and take out a bad.
"They'll be safe here for a few days, we gotta get going though." Lila says walking off on her own.
Before I can grab another thing a male arm stops me. Looking up I see Sabas looking down at me and a part of me freezes. What does this guy think he is doing? I try to pull my arm away but his grip won't let up.
"You save us and then run off? What are you anyway?" Sabas asks me.
"We have decided to be called Resurectors. You know people who bring back the dead." Lila says as she walks back into the room with a large bag. "Careful pal, Fiona does bite."
I roll my eyes as Lila starts to do something else while Lucian and Selene talk. Eve comes up to me though and looks at me with sadness in her eyes. Oh great what in the world are they trying to do? Guilt trip me? I have no part in this war.
"Finally one of victor's experiments worked then? Did he ever tell you why they created your kind?" Lucian asks now walking my way. "He wanted you to bring back warriors who had fallen and quite possibly give birth to other vampires."
I put my hand over my mouth about to throw up after his last statement which earns a giggle from Eve. Looking up I see her smile for the first time.
"That's the truth, Victor had worked for centuries to create your kind and now here you are. Wouldn't you want revenge for him making you immortal?" Lucian asks.
"Don't listen Fiona, he's just bating you." Lila says as she continues to pack.
"I have no part in this war. I am neither Lycan or vampire." I reply only to have Sabas pull me into his arms and look down at me.
"That could easily change." He tells me.
"Don't, she has a choice unlike us." Selene says walking up to us. "We could use your help though."
"You do what ya want, I'm outta here." Lila says as she leaves me behind as she walks out the door.
Son of a well now I was more or less stuck with them. I sigh and agree to stay with them. I unpack what little I did after Sabas released me. I quickly changed into an outfit similar to Selene's but mine was cut in the middle showing my mid section. Twin sais were something I usually used when I didn't have any guns.
"You afraid?" I hear Eve's voice ask me.
"More or less, it's normal to fear the unknown but its better to be prepared for it." I tell her as I load my hand gun and place it at my side.
"You and mom dress a lot alike." She tells me.
"Distraction to boys." I tell her with a wink as she giggle at me.
I walk up to Selene, Lucian and Sabas who are watching the screens. Lucian and Sabas look me over and I look to Eve almost as if I was making a point to say told you so. Eve laughs as she comes up to us.
"We have to get out of the country." Selene starts.
"What good would that do? They will still hunt us down and try to kill us." Lucian says.
"Unless the hunted become the hunters." I speak up and they all look to me. "I mean like the leaders, I didn't mean take on the army alone jees."
"She makes a point. Still they know all of us, but they don't know Fiona." Sabas says.
"They would know her, especially Victor." Lucian says as he looks to Selene.
