Walking down the street after seeing that strange pair and Sylar pulling me to continue on this 'mission', I have to say that I was kinda bummed. I was going to head over to another persons house and get a new power.

"How much farther?"

I asked out of pure curiosity.

"About another twenty minutes or so. Why you chickening out?"

He said that last part with a smirk on his face.

I rolled my eyes at him. Me? Chicken out? Hah, never. If anything he should be chickening out. Isn't this like his first kill or something?

"Why would I chicken out?"

I tried to just focus on walking with him and not make eye contact.

"Isn't this like your first time?'

I couldn't help but to laugh at how dirty my mind could be.

He stared at me like I was crazy…Well, I was crazy but ehh whatever.

"You wish it was. If anything I've done it more then you."

He laughed as people around us as we walked were thinking we were talking about sex. The looks on their faces were priceless. I smiled as I walked and he looked at me again but he had a smile on his face. His eyes told a different story, in his eyes he looked incomplete. How? I don't know.

"I've got a bunch of different ones, but my favorite is my…"

I really couldn't think of a word without really exposing myself.

"more vocal power."

He nodded at me.

"You'll have to show me sometime…"

I nodded at him this time only mocking him at the way he nodded at me.

We started walking up at rock and dirt road. Looked like a more personal road appose to the main streets.

"I take it were close?"

"Very."

His voice was more quiet and had a bit more rasp to it. I had to say, it was pretty attractive.

He pointed to a specific house that was on the verge of looking like a mobile home. He walked up a few steps and then before he knocked he turned to me.

"You good about thinking off the top of your head?"

"I try."

He thought for a moment then knocked on the door. Not a moment later did some short, pudgy man open the door looking like he was going to have a heart attack.

"D-Dr. Suresh?"

He was stuttering now? Great.

"Yes, Yes it is."

Sylar or should I call him 'Dr. Suresh' put a sweet smile on his face. This short man looked over to me with a weird look on his face.

"Hi, I'm Shawna Mryah. I'm helping Suresh here…"

I put my hand on his shoulder and put a warm smile on my face as well.

"with research of abilities, and I asked if I could tag along. Of course, If you don't mind mr.?"

He stared blankly for a moment.

"Oh,Uh, Zane Taylor. Yeah that's just fine…Sorry."

I smiled and he opened the door for us to walk in. The first thing I noticed when he opened the door was that everything was melted. I looked over to Sylar and he shrugged at me.

"How interesting…Um, Zane. Do you mind showing us your ability?"

"Oh yes, sorry."

He came back a moment later with a toaster. Sylar and I both walked up and peered over his shoulder. He put his hand over the toaster and it melted into nothing. He turned around and looked at us with an expecting look on his face. I looked down to the now puddle and back to Zane.

"How did you find out about your power?"

I asked and he fidgeted under my gaze…What a freak.

"I w-was really upset one day and I came home and went to grab my kettle to make some tea and when I picked it up I was so mad that it s-started melting in my hands."

"hmm, and that was the first time it had happened?"

I had no idea what I was sopposta be doing so I treated it the best I can. Play the part, Get on the inside and then kick on to the ground and steal their power. Same, old, Same, old.

"Yes, Can you make it stop?"

As I was about to speak Sylar started to speak over me so I stopped and listened.

"Why would you want to get rid of such a beautiful ability?"

Zane started to fidget again with his fingers. He then he decided to change the subject.

"Are you guy thirsty?"

We both didn't respond for a minute but I was first to speak.

"Yes, do you have any juice?"

"Uh,Yeah…I do."

I smiled and he flustered a little .

"Great." We both walked into the kitchen, which was small has hell. He poured me a glass and a drank it down very slowly.

"S-suresh? You want something to drink?" He called out to Sylar as I walked back into the living room area where everything was melted. I looked up at him and he had a sick look on his face and it made my stomach get butterflies in excitement.

"Yea…"

He walked into the kitchen and I heard a loud crash. I smiled and kept listening. I heard him scream and then…Silence. I turned the corner and saw Sylar with his hands on the brain. I watched as he did it because I had never met another person who stole powers let alone had another ability…and hadn't killed them for it.

"How do you do it?"

He pulled me out of my stare and I looked at him.

"Do what?"

"Get the power?"

I pulled out my knife and gabbed it into the neck of what used to be Zane, but now was a bloody mess. I moved the knife around inside of the neck and pulled it out as it was lathered in blood. I stuck it in my mouth and licked it clean.

"You have no idea how much of a turn on that is…"

I blushed and put my knife away.

"You little vampire."

"I am not a vampire."

"That's what it looked like."

He gestured pointlessly. I sighed as I began to explain how it works.

"I drink the blood in order to get the power because not only is it in the brain its also in the blood stream. It kind of works like a disease. I ingest it and my body onto the 'proteins' if you will, and Ta-Da!"

I threw my hands up. He nodded again and stood up so I followed suit.

"Still a Vampire…"

He smirked.

"AM NOT! I just explained how I'm not a vampire!"

I crossed my arms and straightened up.

"Oh, Bite me!"

He said dramatically and teasingly.

"You better watch it, or maybe I will."

His laughs quieted down a little.

"Is that a threat?"

He asked with a smirk still on his face. I was so annoyed that I just gave in. I put one of my hands on both of his shoulders, and I reached up and bit his neck. Though if he ever brought this up again I would deny it all, but it was more of a love bite. He groaned and I kissed the spot that I bit and began to walk away. I stood by the door like I did in the watch shop to tell him that I was ready to go. He walked put to the door but instead of walking out he grabbed me and kissed me full on the lips. My eyes went wide but I slowly melted and kissed him back.
