A/N: I'm really sorry for my lack of updating on this story. I've had a lot of stuff going on. I've done a lot of thinking about this story and I've realised it's probably not going to be as long as I expected it to be. But, it will still be at least ten chapters hopefully. Anyway this chapter's kind of major in the story and plays a great role in the rest of the story. I've agonised over this chapter for a while wondering if I've added it into the story to early or not so I'd appreciate it if you told me what you thought.

A.K.

3 months later:

I gritted my teeth and tried to be as quiet as possible.

"You can't hide for ever little girl" His voice loud, echoing through the trees causing the animals around me to scatter quickly.

"Little girl" he breathed in my ear suddenly causing me to spin around with my blade ready in my hand almost immediately. His hand was wrapped around my wrist before I could react. I glared at his hand with everything I had.

"So much hatred for someone so…innocent" He lulled running his nose along the inside of my wrist. I hissed at him angrily.

"It's because of your kind my family is dead" I spat at him as his grip on my wrist tightened. He growled angrily at me as pain shot through my left arm, the one he had a hold of. I turned in his grip at his distraction dethatching his right leg with the blade that was concealed in the sleeve of my right arm. I had him in pieces seconds later. I gathered him up slowly despite the pain in my arm and piled him up before setting him on fire. News of his death I'm sure would get back to his superiors I'm sure since he was a high ranking officer. Corporal maybe I wasn't too sure. I had to get out of here though.

"You should get that looked at" a voice said from behind me a couple of hours later as I was washing my arm in the small stream I'd found.

"Come to try take a bite out of me too?" I asked pulling my arm out of the water and turning around slowly. My left arm throbbed from the pain of the break and the cold water.

"I'm not goin' to do that Darlin'" the vampire said leaning against a tree. I raised my eye brow at him in question causing him to chuckle slightly and shake his head slightly.

"Honestly Darlin' I ain't gunna hurt you or turn you in" he said trying to convince me. I sighed and walked over to my bag and rummaged through it till I found a splint and some bandages.

"What you gunna do when he calls you in?" I asked through gritted teeth as I set my arm used the splint and began to bandage it up quickly. He watched me with intrigued eyes.

"He wants you Darlin'" he said avoiding my question with his statement. I turned and looked at him for a moment before I spoke.

"I'm well aware I have a price over my head. This news is nothing new to me" I said as I watched him appear at my side and tie off the bandage on my arm. I flinched slightly at his closeness and tried my best to keep still and not move away from him.

"You've got nine months" he hissed his red eyes flashing slightly before he disappeared his warning ringing in my ears…
