Chapter four: Decisions made. (Rose)

The look of outrage and blood lust was plain on all of the vampires' faces as Rose told them of the treachery the werewolves had committed.

"Yes I know, I know but if we were to just go round there and start a fight we would be just as brainless as them, now is that what you want?" The crowd collectively shook their heads, partly through shame and partly at the thought of them being the same as werewolves.

"Thank you, now does anyone have any logical suggestions?" she inquired, many of the vampires had thoughtful expressions etched on to their faces, but no one spoke up. Eventually it was Jases' cocky voice that rang, clear as crystal, through the crowed hall

"This is going to seem like suicide but, what if we let them come to us? That way we aren't starting the fight and I'll bet my amazing good looks," he flashed a dazzling smile at Rose, "that that's what they'll do anyway." Rose looked at him, stunned. She had never thought him the thinking type. Others around the hall were overcoming their amazement and nodding their heads in approval. Jase looked around the hall at all the nodding heads, feeling very pleased with himself. Finally, he thought, a bit of stardom and fame for the joker. Now maybe Rose will actually see me for what I am instead of just a thorn in the side of her perfect body.

"Jase…Jase…Jase!" Roses' voice shot through his thoughts and fantasizing like a speeding bullet. He blinked and looked at her to show that he was listening,

"As I was saying. Even though most if not all of your previous ideas have been extremely farfetched and suicidal, this time I really think that you have come through for us. Ok I want everyone ready within three hours time please"

He smiled, a dashing debonair smile hoping to make Rose swoon and fall into his arms; unfortunately she just smiled back and then walked away towards the stairs. Jase watched her go wistfully but he was brought out of his fantasizing by many slaps on the back from his fellow vampires, whom were congratulating him on his best idea to date. Five floors down Rose turned from the winding staircase and went through a set of white double doors hung with strips of plastic on the other side; the room she was in was called the WDL (Weapons Development Lab). There were unfinished blue prints of various weapons lining the walls and an empty mug on the side.

"Hay Romeo you here? We have a plan." Her call echoed through the lab without answer. Funny I wonder where he is. He never leaves this room. Rose mused to herself, and then just as she was about to repeat her call but louder, a heavily Transylvanian accented voice said from behind another door within the lab

"In here Rose, I heard you." The voice belonged to Romeo, a coffee coloured vampire with shoulder length black hair; he was 6 foot 5incs, reasonably well muscled, had eyes that were as dark as coco beans, he wore a white lab coat with a black polo neck top and blue denim jeans on underneath. His hands were rough from hours of building and developing weapons but they could also be as soft as silk, when he was seducing an innocent beauty to expose her neck to him. Usually he was quite good natured but if you disregarded his "babies" (any of the weapons that he had made period) he would not hesitate to strip you of your skin, piece by tiny piece.

The room that Rose followed his voice into was bigger than the WDL and deprived of all the blue prints, sideboards and tool draws. Instead at the far end of the room there were a series of targets and lining the walls were various completed weapons of all shapes and sizes. There was also a desk with a single chair, Romeo offered the chair to Rose and sat himself upon the desktop.

"Now, vot can I do for you zis fine evening?" Romeo inquired as he sat down. Rose explained what had been in the paper and then told him how Jase had come up with their plan of action.

"We need you to get everyone organised and geared up in less than three hours time." She concluded. Romeo nodded his head thoughtfully, after a few minutes he said in his calm voice,

"Sounds like the verevolves have gone too far zis time. I'll have everyone ready, don't vorry." With that he jumped from the desk and walked to the door, but as he pulled it open he turned as if to say something else to Rose and then thought better of it and walked out. Rose blinked at Romeo's unusual behaviour, as he was normally quite straight forward, before smiling, that Romeo, he always keeps me guessing.
