INTRODUCTION:
As Professor Kane walked across the House of Nights Campus she heard a noise from the East Wall.
"now what in the blue blazes could that be" the former Marine turned Professor thought. Ever since she took up Nerferet's invitation to teach at Tulsa's House of Night she had been hearing the weirdest noises and never mind the fact of the Red Fledglings and their High Priestess, Stevie Rae. Professor Kane wasn't a racist but at first she thought that her time as a Marine had held her back from what was happening in the "normal" Vampyre world.
"we were originally normal blue fledglings" Stevie Rae explained "only most of us died then un-died."
"most?" Kane had asked.
"Yeah…Shaylin was originally blind before she was marked."
"so she had a default which caused her mark to be red?"
Stevie Rae had just shrugged.
As the professor walked closer and closer to the wall she began to hear whispers
"who's there?" she asked.
The sounds stopped and the Professor moved closer to the wall. Suddenly, some one jumped her from behind, stabbed her back and twisted the knife. A hand quickly covered Kane's mouth with what felt like a leather glove to muffle her screams of pains. The one who Kane thought was behind the wall originaly came out of a shadow next to it with a mask over their face took her face in their hands and twisted the professor's neck till both the assailant and murderer heard the crack of her neck breaking.
