Chapter 2

Ishtar looked shocked. How did Duzell know that King Phelios wrote books about the vampire race. "Um…Duzell, King Phelios didn't write anything about…" "Don't give me that crap Ishtar! I read the passage in your book and it was written by king Phelios." "But that was just a little piece of his many journal entries; he wrought in nothing more then his journals." "I'm sorry princess I had no idea that you were such a bad liar!" Ishtar stood there for a moment and finally decided that she wasn't going to win this one no matter how hard she tried. "Fine, I'll get your stupid books." As Ishtar said this she walked over to the bookcase and scanned the titles of the books. "Ishtar, have you found anything yet?" "Yes, I just found a couple that you might be interested in." As Ishtar sat the books down on the table Duzell noisiest how graceful the princess truly was. Ishtar could feel Duzell's gaze on her and I kind of freaked her out a little bit. Ok how was she trying to kid it freaked her out a lot. She always thought that Duzell had only been nice to her so he could travel with her and suck the blood of her relatives so he could find the reincarnation of King Phelios. But now she wasn't sure if that was his only motive anymore. While Ishtar got a few more books for Duzell she let her thoughts wander to Darres. She was about to turn and give Duzell the books when she suddenly froze. 'What would happen if Darres found out that Duzell really was King of the Vampires? What would Darres do to Duzell? What would Duzell do to Darres?' All these thoughts and questions filled her head and overworked her brain so much that she passed out from mental exaction. Duzell was about to ask why she was taking so long and he turned around just in time to see Ishtar fall to the ground. "Holy shit, Ishtar are you ok!" Duzell said as he ran to the edge of the table to se if she was alright. As he looked down he could have sworn that Ishtar looked dead for a split seconded. He jumped off the table and tried to wake her up but no matter how many times he tried each time failed miserably. He finally got so worried that he ran to the library doors just as Sr. Keld, Yujinn, and Darres opened to doors so they could hold their weekly meeting about Ishtar's progress in her studies. Duzell tried to get Keld's attention but that was about a useful as talking to a brick. So he tried Darres and that worked. Darres looked down at Duzell and looked at him with a puzzled look on his face. "What do you want kitty?" 'Kitty? Did he just call me kitty? Duzell thought but quickly decided to deal with that issue later. Duzell Meowed a few times and then bit Darres' hand and ran off in the direction that Ishtar was in. "What the hell you stupid cat!?" and with that Darres ran of in the direction that Duzell ran in with Keld and Yujinn close behind. As Darres rounded a corner he saw Ishtar on the ground practically lifeless. "Oh my god! Lady Ishtar!" Darres screamed and ran over to her and picked her up just as Keld and Yujinn got there. "What the hell happened? Why is lady Ishtar passed out like that?" Keld began to question with a grate authority in his voice. "We'll find out later we just need to get her to her room and get her medical attention right away!" Yujinn said as he scooped up Duzell and hurried after Darres. As soon as they entered Ishtar's room Darres laid her down on her bed and ran off the get the doctors. Yujinn put down Duzell on the edge of the bed and ran off after Darres leaving Duzell alone with a passed out Ishtar.
