The change happend in the weeks leading up to your 16th birthday; sleepy days and restless nights, thats how my parents always described it to me. Your teeth would feel like they were being pulled away from your senstive gums as they grew and grew into the sharp razors made for tearing and ripping away flesh, lapping up the blood. My brothers had only just survived the change, Nicholas, my youngest brother had been seriously ill throughout his change. We all thought he wouldnt survive the change, thankfuly he had survive-only just may i add. But this is not about Nicholas suriving, in fact its a totaly different kind of story. You see, male born vampires are extremely common; in fact, every preggnant vampire would give birth to a baby boy. Vampire girls are not born; they are made. Girls are easy pray for newly turned male vampires; the change weakens you greatly, so on the first night of hunting, if no woods or animals are nearby the next target is a young, teenage girl; the perfect pray.
"Solange? You in here?" I looked up from the covers I had my face buried into. "Yeah, Come in Lu" Lucy-my best friend-pushed the door open, in her hands she carried a silver tray, layed upon it was a silver dish and silver spoon; the dish was filled with a thick, red substance. "Nicholas said you might be hungry so I thought I'd make you some soup" She placed the tray upon my lap. "Its daylight, why is Nick awake?" I asked picking up the spoon, stiring the liquid slightly. "Thanks Lu" Lucy nodded and scuttled over to her bed, shoving a few spare socks that were tossed lazily on her bed into the draws. "Doesnt it get boring? I mean, its just you awake in daylight" Lucy shrugged and turned back, "Kinda...I just have to make do with what I can do, besides" She said turning around to face me, her hands on her hips reminding me of her mum. "you're going through the change, you need your strength" Lucy ripped open her closet pulling aside clothes. "Lucy? What are you doing?" I asked peering at her taking a large gulp of the warming liquid; it was hot and soothed my itching throat. "Its Matts party tonight" Lucy said, pulling out a hot red dress before shaking her head slightly and throwing it back. "You're honestly thinking of going to that?" I asked staring at her, was she mad? "You do know that Ma-" "yes, I know Solange but..." she froze turning to face me and sat at the edge of my bed. She sighed slightly. "I asked by Jamie" I sat up, nearly tipping the tray all tover the bed. "No!" She cried. "Lucy no!"
The door flew open, a tried and pale faced Nicholas stood in the doorway, his eyes lolled lazily over me towards Lucy; her face pale, her eyes lowered to the floor. "Whats the shouting?" He asked, his voice laced with triedness as he eyes caught Lucy. "Lucy is going to a party with Jamie!" I cried staring at my older brother. Nicholas' eyes went wide "Jamie? Jamie York? No!" He screamed, his eyes narrowing into slits staring into mine. "Listen to me" Lucy cried standing up "I didnt agree with it, he blew some werid dust into my face...made me choke...made me gag...and I just agreed with him, did what he told me to do" Nicholas hissed. "Hypnos...Lucy listen to me you cant go, he will try to hurt you, try to kill you. Its Matts party-" "Matt and Jamie are part of the Halos-Ra, they will try to hurt you, get to Solange" Lucy nodded her eyes locked onto the floor "I didnt want to...I cant stop myself from not getting ready or anything..." Nicholas walked forward, he grabbed Lucys hands and pulled her towards him slightly "Look Lucy you have to fight the urge to go, for your own sake...look after Sol' shes ill after all" Lucy nodded and stared into Nicholas' eyes. I coughed slightly, poking the soup which was steaming gently. I took another gulp and looked up towards the pair. "Im going to go get some sleep; Lucy, no party" Lucy nodded slightly and headed back towards her bed, throwing herself onto it. "Sorry Sol" I smiled slightly "Its fine...well want to make yourself usefull and take your mind off the party?" Lucy nodded, I took another sip "Go fetch me some bread*
***Lucy***
I walked into the huge kitchen; I glanced out the tinted windows to protect the vampires inside, I turned to open the breadbin when I saw Quinn leaning cooly against the worktop "Good morning Lucy" He breathed, I smiled slightly "Hey Quinn...what are you doing up so early?" I asked glancing at the small clock hanging above the door; it read 11am. Quinn shrugged, "I heard shouting and got up" I groaned, "Quinn you're a shit liar." He shrugged. "Fine, I had to chase away some people..." Quinns stupid smirk fell as he went deadly serious. I paused, leaning on one hip; "was they after Solange?" Quinn shrugged "I was thinking off waking up Mum and Dad...warn them." The lights flahsed off, then on. Quinn jumped from the worktop growling slightly. "The alarm...someones here" I heard heavy footsteps down the staries as Nicholas appeared in the doorway next to Max. All teeth bared, ready to attack. "Take Lucy back to Solange" Quinn mumbled. I shuck my head. "No, I want to help" I moved my jacket slightly to revel a long, thin wooden stake, Max hissed slightly "Fine, Come on." We approched the door slowly; a thin silouhette reflected in the glass pane. Quinn-being the oldest-kicked open the door his fangs showing, ready to attack. "Good morning Drakes" Jamie smirked.
