The only characters I own are Tabitha, Annith, and Jade (who appear later in the story). All recognizable characters belong to Kouta Hirano.
Of all the countries Europe has, Ukraine was never Tabitha's favorite. Because of the people still holding onto some of its old traditions, villages would still fear vampires. It made her job harder to complete. That, and professional makeup artists.
Tabitha bursted into the room she was renting and began to pack her stuff in a hurry. Her eyes were gleaming red with annoyance and packing would be a nice word for just shoving her clothes in the duffel bag.
"Stupid vampire," Tabitha grumbled, "almost killed me with a stake to the heart."
She didn't take note of how fast she was packing until a sharp pain kicked in and she winced. With care, Tabitha pulled up her shirt to show a large wound that was rapidly healing; for a vampire, it was slow. She lightly touched it and rested her finger on an older scar - a circular satin scar where the abdomen should be.
The wound surfaced memories and she shook them away. Tabitha sighs and wondered if all her powers would be quicker to acheive iif it wasn't a holy bullet. She sighed and continued to pack, but with care.
"Ma'am?" Tabitha turned to the TSA attendant, puzzled. "May we check your bag?"
"Um... sure..." She answered, wondering if she had anything suspicious.
Slowly, the guard shifted through her duffel bag of clothes and small bags of necessary items, only to pull out a strange box. He opened it carefully to reveal... make up.
"Alright, everything seems normal. Have a good flight, ma'am." He confirmed and gave her the bag, unaware of what it really was.
Tabitha accepted her bag back and gave him a reassuring smile. "Thank you."
As she leaves, she smirks. She looked down into her duffel bag. Instead of a make up set, it's her anti freak sniper rifle.
'Humans,' she thought, 'they're so vulnerable to large scale mirages.'
Exhausted, Tabitha entered the room of the airport where people greeted others. She scanned the room, dotted with people with signs and families. Quickly, she spotted a lone figure with no sign, dressed in formal attire and a black ponytail.
"It's so good to see you Walter." She greeted him. "Even though I was gone for about three days."
"Likewise, this was one of your shortest missions. Unless, there is a difficult one." He told her. Tabitha grinned, keeping back the lie that there never was a "difficult one"; all her missions lasted 2-3 days. If she liked where she was, then she'd kill the vampire and stay for a few days then call in. As long as it wasn't Greece, Germany, or Ukraine.
"Well, welcome home." Walter smiled at her and led her out of the airport to the car. Tabitha tossed her bag in the back and hopped in the front.
She tugged at the scarf she had around her neck, but prefered to wait until they left London. Of course, she had powers to have people not see her bitemarks; but her power would be tired quickly because normal people move constantly. Better to keep the scarf on.
The two left the airport and crossed through London. Tabitha's blue eyes reflected off the window as she rested her head against the glass. She watched the people and city thrive around her in the car, and start to fade away as they started to leave London for the manor.
