A/N: Like I stated in my profile, I was going to make a Blade fanfic that involved Deacon Frost and a new OC of mine; her name is Sophia and she is Blade's daughter that he never really knew existed until she encounters her father and tells him about her past; well anyway Sophia is strangely perfectly human, and she's a sweet girl who wanted nothing but to find out more about her father and get to know more about these so called 'daywalkers' and vampires. But she gets herself in to more trouble than she bargains for, she encounters Deacon Frost by accident nearly falling for him at a downtown bar! Well I can't tell you more that would ruin the story!
Disclaimer: I do NOT OWN anyone or anything from the making of this! I only own the two OC's
The Encounter: Blade
::
The air outside was cold and pitch black; she knew better than to walk outside alone at this time of night but living in that run-down apartment wasn't helping her much with her social life, so flaunting herself around at night didn't matter, the only true friend she really had was Tommy Slate, a high school friend, not actually her friend, because she was in middle school by the time he was a junior but she heard rumors around her school that some high school boy had a crush on the little Sophia in middle school. They were roommates but she didn't fall too well with him after a month so he moved out.
"So, still working on your little vampire research?" Tommy teased, nudging her in the side with an elbow. Sophia didn't acknowledge him. Tommy was 5'5 and Sophia was 5'2, so it was slightly hard to nudge her without hitting her somewhere above the shoulders.
She remained quiet as they entered the library. Tommy snickered behind her watching her make her way over to the computers. "Come on, you got to stop this, you know vampires aren't real," he crossed his arms, standing directly behind her. Sophia brushed her thick brunette hair behind her, whipping him unknowingly and logged on.
She still didn't speak; "Uh fine, when you're done come find me, I'll be in the "vampire" section," he laughed as he walked off, the librarian pressing a finger up to her lips.
Sophia was an excellent typist so she knew what she was doing when she was on the computer.
.
There were too many facts about these 'vampires' and a certain kind of 'day-walker' that made Tommy almost seem right about them being not real, a myth, but she knew, just out there somewhere her father was that one certain 'day-walker' that everyone talks about; she barely remembers his face, but she did know for a fact that he was her father.
Sophia felt her hands shake and her forehead sweat; no, not here, please no! She said to herself, while her body temperature hit the cold mark within seconds and that's when she knew it was going to be a long time for her to calm back down. Sophia had a bad mental disorder, Anxiety-disorder, it always happened whenever she'd least expect it and Tommy was always there when it happened. "T-Tommy, Tommy, where are you?" her voice was even shaking to the bone, with her hands slowly moving away from the keyboard, and her entire body moving just seconds after.
He left the book isle and hurried to her side to help her cool down, dragging her outside, where he knew the cold air would help tons. His voice was soft and careful as he spoke to her, trying to tell her everything was alright, that she wasn't in any danger, she was fine;
They remained on the steps just outside the library, with his arm around her, his voice still trying to calm her; Sophia remained a little shaken, but she was finally calming down. "Thanks Tommy, god if you weren't here I don't know what I'd do," she hugged him once before standing up, wrapping her bare arms around herself to keep some warmth.
Tommy still stayed seated, leaning back in to the stair. "So where to now?" he looked her way, with a single finger tip toying with his dark hoop earring, one ankle crossed over the other. Sophia became chilled; "I don't have a clue, you pick," she stated with a sigh of exhaustion, slumping right down beside Tommy.
He leaned forward in to his lap and removed something very thin from his back pocket. "How 'bout the bar?" he smiled, waving in front of her, her very own 'special' ID card, clearly stating that she's 21 years of age. She took one look at it and shoved him back. "What the hell is wrong with you, you know I don't do stuff like that, we'll get caught anyway," she growled, crossing her arms in a way that startled Tommy. That devious smile never left though; "Come on Soph, it's not that bad, and you look 21 to me," he continued to wave the plastic card in her face and all she did was roll her dark pretty eyes. "Uh, fine, but if we-I mean if I get caught with a fake ID I'm going to kick your ass, Tommy," she smiled a tiny smile before taking the card from his fingers like she was more pissed off than happy with him.
He smiled and they left.
.
Living in a big city was crazy, Sophia hated it but Tommy loved it. Being the bad-boy that he was, he had all the room to do his fucking drug-dealing shit, that Sophia hated, he was 23 years old born in Spain but raised in America by his foster family, that he could give two shits about. Doing bad things were the only things he really knew how to do and he was very good at it.
"So ready to get you're groove on baby?" he teased doing a tiny little jig just before they walked in through the front door, the lights a bit flashy but not too extreme.
At the front door, a big ass American man Brucie asked for ID from the two. He knew Tommy but he didn't recognize the little girl beside him. He gave her a close look and that's when she slowly brought up the card and his blue eyes looked it over, "Okay you're good," he felt a bit suspicious but she was a friend of Tommy's, and he admired that boy.
Just as they walked inside Sophia punched Tommy in the arm and heard him squack. "What was that for?" he put a hand over his possibly bruised bicep looking down at her. She shrugged; "I don't know, maybe you should never call me baby," she stood by his side, her dark eyes scanning all the dancers and drinkers, trying to keep as much of her cool as possible.
The air was hot, and all she wore was a red t-shirt, holey jeans and silver flip-flops that were on the verge of snapping in two in any second. She wasn't dressed appropriately for this kind of bar, she had no idea Tommy was going to take her here so she remained angry at him for the last remaining moments of the night, together. "Hey cheer up, I'll buy you a drink," Tommy brought her over to the bar and she took a seat beside some flamboyant fellow with bleach blond hair.
Tommy ordered from the man behind the bar and the drink came in no time. Tommy sipped from his and he held hers before her, waiting for the day she takes the first drink of alcohol.
She looked at it and the light blue color was quite the attraction, but she didn't drink it. "No, I don't want to drink, just leave me alone," she explained, her voice almost sad and hurt but he knew when to back off. He drank hers and left like she wanted. Why did Tommy have to be so stupid? He made her want to just pull out her hair all the fucking time, god!
But when the lights went black and began to flash that's when she knew that this wasn't just a bar, it was a club and she always hated the idea of going to a club, especially one that involved grinding, revealing clothes and sex in the other rooms along with an assortment of narcotics.
She felt her head swell with anger and confusion as the music fell deeper and deeper, that's when a frightening scream filled her ears with fear. Sophia was stunned and frozen in place. The people around her left as the lights still continued to flash, causing the dancers and drinkers to fall in to one another. Soon the room was filled with screams and she felt her eyes sting with tears. "Tommy?" she called his name moving her ass from the bar, carefully making her way through the crowd of sweaty men and women. She didn't see him, didn't feel him, god this was fucking stupid!
Her heart was racing and her thoughts were scrambled all she thought about was hopefully finding Tommy and getting the hell out of here, but the lights burst leaving the club dark and filled with silence until one unlucky woman had to scream. That's when everyone began to race around again and eventually she found herself belly-faced down on the hard ground, covered in spilled booze and god knows what else. "Tommy...?" she tried to yell but her voice was weak over the sounds of all the frightened people, she couldn't speak.
"There's no need to break up the party, it's only just begun!" that voice, that startling voice gave her chills as everyone almost immediately stopped in place, leaving just a crack of new light for her to see out.
"T-Tommy?" Sophia's voice was still little and quiet, and that's when she felt a hand grab tightly to her forearm pulling her free. It was Tommy, she could smell his cologne, that familiar smell brought her back to life, as her arms went around him, her head on his chest. "Don't worry, I'll get you out of here," he whispered and on their way out, trying his best to scramble through the dumb-ass people, he heard the most horrific sound; a hiss vibrated deep in his ear and out of fucking nowhere, he was pulled away from Sophia and his screams caused her to cry.
"Tommy!" new dim lights glowed up above, like it was part of some stupid plan for the lights to bust in the first place but it was nothing like that; bodies lay everywhere along the dark floors, blood spilled everywhere, no one, not even Tommy was found standing there, no one but pale clothed creatures, dark blood spilled down the front of them, all of them looking back at her.
She was definitely scared out of her mind. She knew, she just knew they were real and now being surrounded by so many of them, she was frightened, tears rolling down her face.
Only one man, a pale creature stood out from all the rest; he jumped down from a ledge high above where the strobe lights hung, and landed perfectly on his two feet. His face was deathly pale and his eyes were stark blue, so impossibly blue.
"Fuck!" she whispered and standing still, she knew she was surrounded; there was no way of an escape. "Oh, look at who we have here, a little minor drinking at the bar, bad girl," he walked toward her and the others split in two large groups for him to make his way. Sophia furrowed her brows and bit her lip. Looking directly at the approaching bastard, she let her hands reach for anything she could grab and luckily for her she felt a glass bottle; nice!
"Leave me alone!" she gave the bottle a swing and tossed it out before her, watching it collide in to him like he was some kind of statue or something. The tiny remaining shards of the bottle fell to the floor and he stood there, looking down at the glass pieces. "Hm," he sighed lifting his eyes back toward her and that's when he had a strong hand around her brown neck, blocking off absolutely every airway. He had her lower back pressed up against the bar, bending her backwards, god it was so fucking painful.
She shut her eyes afraid to see him so close. "You better think before you act, girl, I have very, very hungry boys and girls here that will love to take a bite out of you, now are you going to listen like a good little girl or am I going to have to toss you to the fucking monsters, huh!" he clawed her face, pinching each side of her mouth with a thumb and index finger, flaring his nostrils and baring his fangs. He realized how close to death she was by the loss of air, so he let her go and watched her fall to her knees, coughing.
"How about you come with me and I'll let you see your little boyfriend again,?" he kneeled down to her size, using one hand to hold up her face. Sophia was scared and angry; she didn't know what to do. She coughed in his face and he did nothing but reveal a devious smirk and swat her across the face, knocking her to her back. "God, why the fuck do I always end up with the stubborn ones?" he growled and looked her over once before taking her in his arms.
