Once Casey was wide awake, she got dressed, putting on a tank top and dark jeans that fit snugly around her body. Then, she grabbed her cell phone, turned it on, and went downstairs.

"Hey, Casey. Feeling better?" George questioned, taking in her appearance.

"I feel just fine, George. A little hungry," Casey answered, trying to appear normal.

"You want me to fix you something?" George questioned, deciding not to question the new look.

"No, thanks. I'll just call a friend and meet him," Casey responded.

"You sure?" George checked.

"Yeah," Casey answered. She walked out the door and then dialed a number.

"Yo," she heard a few seconds later.

"Hi, Rod. Wanna go grab a bite?" she invited.

"Yeah," Rod Diamond agreed. She hung up and then took to the skies. Almost seconds later, the two vampires met up.

"Hey, baby," greeted Rod, who was wearing his customary white shirt, black leather jacket, blue jeans, and black tennis shoes. For an answer, Casey wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a passionate kiss.

"I'm so hungry," she said.

"I've got our dinner at our place," he told her.

"Let's go," she stated. Then, they continued on. When they got to their cave, Rod pulled her to a nook and then produced an ornate bottle filled with a red liquid.

"Who's is it?" Casey queried.

"Pig's," Rod answered.

"That'll work," Casey commented. She took the bottle and took a long drink. Then, she gave it to Rod who did the same.

"Yeah. That's much better," he declared.

"Exactly," she agreed. They kissed. Man, he feels so good, Casey thought to herself. She let him pin her to the wall. Rod hissed as his fangs scraped her neck. Just then, there was a quiet discreet cough. The two looked up to see their friends and pack mates Brian Steele, Meg Winters, Michael Covington, and Star Quinterra, all who appeared to be seventeen. Meg was wearing a white Cashmere sweater with pale blue jeans and Star was wearing a white tank top covered by a navy blue jacket with fringes and a brown gypsy skirt.

"Hi, guys," Casey greeted sheepishly.

"Having fun?" Brian teased with a grin.

"It sure looked liked it from here," Michael added.

"Leave them alone," Star chided, a faint Spanish accent in her voice.

"Yeah, they're young. Don't you remember being their age?" Meg added.

"Yeah, like three years ago," Michael responded. Everyone laughed as Rod and Casey walked up to them.

"Hey, how you doin' kiddo?" Michael questioned, ruffling her hair.

"I'm good, Mike. Not as hungry as I was when I first woke up," Casey replied, letting him wrap her into a brotherly hug.

"Yeah, the hunger can be a bear at your age," he mused, pulling her close. For a moment, she let the older boy hold her.

"I'm bored. Can we go find some action?" Casey requested, pulling away.

"Hey, girl after my own heart," Rod approved. Michael and Brian held a silent conversation with their eyes.

"Well, let's go," Brian finally said. There were whoops of excitement as they headed out.

"Hey Casey, what are some of the good places around here?" Meg queried.

"Well, there's an indoor ice rink in town," Casey replied.

"That sounds fun," Brian commented.

"Yeah, let's go," Michael agreed. They whooped and headed for the entrance, where they had parked their bikes.

"Um, we didn't actually---" Rod began to say, but trailed off when he saw his own bike, a black 1983 Honda 250.

"Where's his Camaro?" Casey wondered with a hint of a pout.

"Case, I doubt an Indian Motorcycle can tow a Camaro," Michael reminded.

"Right," Casey replied sheepishly. She got on back of the bike, and Rod took his place in the driver's seat. One-by-one, the others did the same. Brian owned a 1958 Indian Motorcycle, and Michael also owned a Honda 250, only his was red and made in 1987. Casey gave them the directions, and they were there shortly. They paid money for skates, and then headed for the ice.

"Okay Birthday Girl, show us your stuff," Michael encouraged. Casey bit her lip and began skating. Her start was hesitant, but soon, she let her vampiric side take over and she was skating gracefully. Rod came up beside her and as a slow song started, they started dancing together. Brian and Michael did the same with Meg and Star. Unnoticed by any of them, Casey's boyfriend Max Rawlings was there with his younger brother, Todd.

"Hey Max, isn't that your girlfriend?" Todd questioned. Max followed his brother's finger to see Casey on the ice, dancing with another guy.

"Casey?" he questioned softly. Almost as if she had heard him, she turned around. He saw the guy she was with say something to her. She answered and then hurried away towards him. Max watched in surprise as Casey seemed to fly towards him.

"Max?" she questioned.
