Alice POV

The man crouched in front of me as I shivered against the wall. His back was turned against me as he looked out into the darkness. A blur flew past me as the man stiffened.

"It is not safe for you Alice, James will get you in the end," he turned towards me. I shall change you tonight. He bared his fangs just as a vision startled me. I was on the ground and Mathew leaned towards me, sharp pointy teeth shining in the darkness as a growl slipped through his mouth.

Jaspers POV

As the sun shone through the window, rising out of the horizon, i got off the ground. The other soldiers were still asleep.

"Pardon me Major Whitlock," a messenger was hurrying towards me, "I know you only just awoke, but Corporal Mckellan wants the first settlement of ladies and children moved today to a safer area, at least 10 miles from here.

I ran my fingers through my hair, straightened my jacket and nodded, "I'll wake up the regiment, Robert. Please tell Corporal Mckellan that we will start in one hour, sharp." He turns and sprints off. I sigh and turn to my sleeping soldiers. It will be a long day ahead.
