Rebecca sinks even lower to the ground, awaiting for her beloved queen's hand to bare it's wrath upon her. Amelia put her hand on Rebecca's shoulder, causing the shivering woman to look up. Amelia gave her the biggest, sweetest smile ever, and said as sweetly as she could, "Let's go outside," all her rescuers gasped at what Amelia had said, all not really foretelling her decision. Amelia waited for the still shaking Rebecca to get up. Rebecca got on her feet, but she was shaking so badly, she fell down again. She made no attempt to help Rebecca, and the others followed in suit. They all knew Amelia's decision when they caught sight of her flaring, red eyes.
They watched as Rebecca got on her feet and followed Amelia into the dark hallway, until they were gone, swallowed by the darkness but before they left, Rebecca looked back asking her comrades for help. Rebecca slowly but steadily followed her bloody queen, occasionally stepping over dead bodies. Johnathin looked around noticing that he and the others were alone, without their queen. "What exactly are we support to do?" one of the other's asked, looking around. After all, they were supposed to be working their way outside too, so they could get their beloved queen somewhere safe. "well, I know that we shouldn't follow those two because the queen had Rebecca go outside with her….I'm guessing she'll tell us when she's ready for us to go and find her." Johnathin said with a shrug. Johnathin sat down as the others dived into the bodies again.
Rebecca was working her way through some bodies, when she tripped. Amelia looked back at Rebecca, who was slightly sobbing; a pile of tears already covered the ground. "You okay?" Amelia asked blankly, wondering how someone could get hurt by tripping over their own food……especially a vampire. "You can kick it if you like," Amelia said with a shrug. "I'm not crying because I tripped," Rebecca said, quickly stifling her tears. Sniffing ever few seconds, and apologizing after everyone. "Then why," Amelia questioned apathetically. Rebecca gave her a look that practically screamed, WHY THE HELL DO YOU THINK? Rebecca sighed, "Because My Lady," she quickly added, "I don't want to die." Amelia laughed, not a scary laugh, just a amused laugh, which under the circumstances was kind of scary. Rebecca looked at Amelia. Has My Queen gone crazy? Rebecca though. Amelia laughed yet again, causing even more confusion for Rebecca.
"So, how long have you been made?" Amelia asked he, as she helped Rebecca to her feet. They started walking again. Was Queen Amelia trying to make me forget about me dying soon, by having a conversation with me? Rebecca thought to herself. Amelia smiled. "Ummmm," Rebecca said trying to remember, "you made me about two months ago." "Wow, so how long have you and Johnathin been going out?" Amelia asked with a smirk. Rebecca tilted her red face down, "I don't think we are," Rebecca said confused, "he never asked me out." Amelia laughed yet again, "so this is the 21st century," Amelia said, "you ask him," "NO…..I can't, I couldn't," Rebecca said shaking her head rapidly. "Why," Amelia asked, "I know there's a age difference and everything but why not, at least try and make it work." Rebecca was shocked, "I'm not THAT old," she said a little hurt. Amelia cracked up laughing, "I was talking about Johnathin. He's not from this century, or even the 20th century." Rebecca hadn't though of that before, "well, how old IS he?? Amelia laughed "ummmmm….I think I made him around 1674??" Amelia said. Rebecca's eyes widened, they were as wide as a bush baby's when he's about to be hit by a semi. "Wow" Rebecca exclaimed, "He's OLD." Amelia laughed; after all, it's not normal for a almost 30 year old person to sound like a child. "And here I though I was old…..especially for hanging out with you guys." At this Amelia fell onto the leave covered ground, rolling with laughter and holding her side because they hurt. "Ouch," Amelia said, holding her elbow. "I hit my arm on this stone." She stood up, holding up a grayish-black stone for Rebecca to see. All of the sudden, Rebecca eyes grew wide. She took a step back, realizing where they were. They were already outside, in the woods. Amelia looked at the fearful Rebecca. "What's your problem?" Amelia questioned. Should I tell her, or lie, Rebecca thinks, she IS the queen. We're in the woods," Rebecca replied. "Yeah, so what?" Amelia asked, not sure what to think of Rebecca being scared of the woods. "So, go on," Rebecca said getting ready for the blow. "Get ready for what?" Amelia asks, confused. Is she acting? "Go on and kill me," Rebecca said sadly, "but can I ask you something first." Amelia looked at Rebecca, who was trembling slightly. "Can you PLEASE make it quick" Rebecca asked her. Amelia just blinked. "What the hell are you talking about?" she demanded, "I'm not going to kill you," she said answering her own question. "Hell I only had you come ahead with me, so we could talk, you know "girl talk". I mean I've been surrounded by men practically my WHOLE life……I guess unlife to," she said, looking just as confused as Rebecca. "What do you mean?" "well, I mean that I don't get to talk to other females," Amelia repeated," so that's why I had you come here with me,. It gives us more time to bond." Amelia said and getting a little of topic, "and the others wanted to eat more anyway." Amelia's expression became serious all the sudden, causing Rebecca to listen even more intently. Before Rebecca could blink, or even comprehend what was about to happen, Amelia had her by the throat. "But, if you ever," Amelia said, her eyes flashing," do that again, I'll kill you," Amelia said, still hold the petrified woman by her throat. "Do you understand," Amelia hissed. Rebecca starting nodding furiously, "of course, My Lady" Rebecca managed, quite well, considering the fact that Amelia still had a hold of her throat. Amelia released Rebecca, by tossing her to the ground.
After regaining consciousness, Rebecca slowly got to her feet, clutching her neck, which had Amelia's handprint embedded in it. "I never meant to offend you my lady," Rebecca said still startled. Amelia walked over to Rebecca. Rebecca's knees started shaking, so badly, she fell to the forest floor. Rebecca's tear stained face, started becoming wet again. Amelia walked up to Rebecca, and slapped her across the face, causing Rebecca to stumble backwards, tripping over a decaying log, causing her to fall yet again. Rebecca looked up when she didn't fell the warmth of the sun on her face. Amelia's shadow engulfed Rebecca's whole body. Amelia gave her a very pleasant smile, and held her hand out for Rebecca to take. Rebecca reluctantly reached for Amelia's cold, bloody hand, half expecting her to jerk it back at the last second in some kind of sick joke. But to her surprise she didn't, Rebecca took Amelia's sturdy hand and got to her feet. Amelia gave her a very serious look, and said "that was a warning, next time, " looking down at her feet, "I'll have to kill you," Amelia felt bad about hurting Rebecca, but she couldn't apologize for it, because if she did, it all would have been for nothing. Rebecca, still holding her cheek, could tell that Amelia really didn't want to hurt her, but had to because of the rules. Amelia looked up, "Alright, I'll call them," she said in her happiest fake voice. "Call who?" Rebecca said confused, startled by Amelia's tone of voice. "Call the others of course, what you didn't think I'd just leave them do you?" Amelia joked. Rebecca picking up on Amelia's cheerful mood "well, why not" Rebecca joked back. Then, realizing she still ad her hand on her throbbing cheek, quickly removing it said, "Well, how do we do that….by telekinesis or something," Rebecca laughed. Amelia's eyes had the faintest trace of red as she said, "but of course." Rebecca would have laughed, but the look in Amelia's eyes told her that Amelia wasn't kidding. As a matter of fact, Amelia was enjoying this. A chance to make another vampire tremble, and try to recall all their thoughts at on time, while stressing the entire time, that the thought something wring. Amelia asked, "Exactly how much have you learned in your 2 months as being a vampire??" Rebecca looked down, " not much , all I know is that we drink blood, we're always hungry……or at least I am," laughed Rebecca, "we're stronger at night, and vampires can make other vampires." Amelia raised her eyebrows, and gave Rebecca a little smile. "I was too busy making sure our plan would run smoothly, to pay very much attention," Rebecca said a little hostile, and realizing she was talking to the queen, quickly added, "My Lady," as sweetly as possible. Again Amelia laughed, "Well you're…..er…..ummmm….kinda right." Rebecca looked at Amelia, very confused. "Well , anyway," Amelia said clapping her hands together, "lets get the group back together."
