I hate this town, it's so washed up
And all my friends don't give a fuck
They'll tell me that it's just bad luck
When will I find where I fit in
Morning light streamed through the window by the dining table and little blue birds chirped outside. Vergil very much wanted to shoot them.
The worked up man didn't know what to think. At first he thought Alice was a vampire, but he had seen her in daylight, not to mention her aversion to iron didn't fit with the description of a vampire. He also had never seen a vampire devour as many pancakes as Alice had. Maybe she was a half-breed? But that would require her to be the daughter of a vamp. Vampires didn't have kids; lack of a beating heart and blood flow sort of fucked that up.
Despite what many humans thought, vampires were really like small ravenous demons. All that occupied their minds was food. They couldn't have sex, let alone conjure up the want for it.
The snowy hunter sighed as he dropped the thick leather bound book he was reading. Vampires were a dead end, he was just running round and round in circles. He sneezed as dust from the book rose up in a cloud. He sneezed again and again before groaning and leaning back in his chair.
"Bless you."
He looked up at the figure that had come in through the front door. "Kat. How was it?"
"Tiring. Honestly Verge, I'm not a hunter like you and Dante."
"I know. Its just their numbers are steadily increasing all the time. It's getting difficult to control with just two of us going out there. We need all the help we can get right now, I'm thankful that you're here Kat." He graced the pretty witch with a rare smile, receiving a small grin from her in return.
"Hmm. How are things going with Alice?"
"Frustrating to be honest. She's some sort of angelic vampire dancing bloody pixie and I'm so fucking lost."
Kat frowned and pulled up a chair beside the exasperated nephilim. He was speaking like Dante, making it obvious that this really was proving to be a problem.
"Hey. We'll figure it out alright." She touched his arm and the cold man actually blushed. Kat knew he was under a lot of stress. Fighting the never-ending onslaught of demons, keeping the Order running, saving people that weren't even grateful to the hunters and on top of all that there was this Alice girl.
With a sudden rush of boldness she shifted into Vergil's lap, eager to relieve his stress.
He sucked in a breath and came to rest his calloused hands on her waist. She lifted one hand to comb through his silky hair, the other to rest on his cheek. "You need to relax Verge. You're over doing it."
She felt a purr rumble in his chest and remembered that she was dealing with a half demon, half angel here. It was easy to forget that when he was always so proper and closed off. He acted like a polite, highly intelligent human and most of the time she lost sight of the fact that he could in fact be dangerous.
"You're dirty." He said. Kat's face flushed a deep red. She was dirty from fighting off demons, but her mind had immediately thought up the double meaning to his statement. He grinned a pressed his lips to the shell of her ear before whispering, "We should clean you up."
She gasped as he stood up swiftly. He placed his hands under her butt as he lifted her up. She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned into his warmth, kissing his strong jaw.
A growl rippled out of the hunter's throat as he walked them towards the bathroom. He was frustrated now more than ever.
'Cause no one can understand
I just can't be dragged down
Nothing comes between me and my plans
So now I never know the things to say to you
That help me prove that I'm still on your side
I never show just what you do to me
Guess, I was always wrong
Allie rolled over with a moan. She had spent the night in her own bed, thus only receiving a measly three hours of sleep. Every time she closed her eyes she saw their faces snarling at her behind the iron bars of her cell.
She knew she would have slept much better in the arms of a certain dark hunter but she wouldn't allow herself to fall for him. The stabbing pain seeing that other woman inflicted on her was too much.
She had crushes before on boys in her school and in the home, yet they were nothing like this. When they parted ways she never hurt like that. She felt sad, but got over it in a week or so. This was different; it literally felt like her heart was having a seizure. So she decided the pain and her dignity was too much to risk, she would keep her distance from Dante from now on.
Allie rolled over and slowly left her nest of warmth under the blankets. It was December and the weather was freezing. But alas the sun was shining today. She smiled a bit, happy that she wouldn't have to go to school in the rain.
She opened the curtains before leaving her plain sunny room. The wooden floorboards down the hallway were like ice, making her tiptoe down the hallway in a silent sprint. She reached the bathroom door and realized it was closed. A moan erupted from within and she immediately backtracked.
Honestly, what was with the people here? They seemed nice at first but now she had the mind to think that they were sex driven maniacs.
So the fluffy blonde girl grumbled as she made her way back to her room. She decided to wear a warm baggy maroon sweater over a plain white tee with black toothpick jeans and her black combat boots. She looked in the mirror over the dressing table and was horrified to find that her hair was more of a lion's mane than actual human hair. There would be no way to tame that so she spritzed it with curl revitalizer and ran her hands through the poofy blonde curls. That was the terrible thing about owning curly locks, you could never really brush them whilst they were dry, or else they would fluff up into a sad looking afro.
She rifled through the small top left drawer, finding a black beanie. That would do the trick. She yanked it on and sweeped on some mascara and lip-gloss quickly. She wanted to go to school looking calm and collected. Nobody needed to know where she was or what happened. Thankfully Vergil had taken the time to call the school and explain that she had been recovering from a terrible accident.
'Some accident' She grumbled in her mind.
Allie took the time to give herself a once over in the mirror, and decided that she was suitable to face normal teenagers once more. Oh what she wouldn't give to be normal once more. Then again, she had never really been normal.
Dante opened the cupboard to find to his amazement, that there was in fact a new box of Rice Bubbles. He gleefully filled up a bowl, and ate it with out milk. Allie walked into the kitchen to find the crazed hunter eating an overfilled bowl of Rice Bubbles over the sink. By the dry crunches she realized that he hadn't even bothered to pour milk in it, let alone eat at the table like an average person.
She raised her eyebrows and filled up a bowl of Coco Pops. Rice Bubbles were disgusting. She didn't notice the way the man had paused, his mouth hanging open like a gaping fish.
"What the fuck are you doing?" He sort of gasped in a strange way. As if she had just murdered a box full of kittens.
"Getting my breakfast, is there a problem?"
"Those are Coco Pops. Alice. What. Are. You. Doing."
"I'm not even going to grace that with an answer. By the way your eye is twitching."
"You're weird."
"And you're a chauvinistic pig. I don't have to state it though."
Dante's eyes grew wide. So she was still mad at him. "Allie look-"
"Don't." She cut him off. She didn't want to hear how it was an accident blah blah blah. "It's too early for this shit." With that she grabbed her bowl full of cereal and milk and shuffled over to the table.
Dante drew into himself, which was something he never did. He couldn't help himself; he was so drawn to her like a magnet. But like the sun and the moon they were always opposite ends of the planet. As one rose the other sank, never touching. It drove him insane, and she hadn't even been mad at him for long.
That was when Vergil decided to walk, skip and jump all at the same time into the kitchen. He grabbed an apple from the fridge and took a large bite, crunching the juicy green fruit. "Good morning you two." His smooth, sultry voice softly lilted up and down musically.
Dante actually felt his eye twitch this time. So his brother had gotten laid. Vergil the king of freaking ice had gotten laid, where as he the sexual deviant was moping over a schoolgirl, who hated his guts.
"You ready for school Te?" Vergil grinned. Allie's head twisted around slowly like something possessed. Dante hadn't disclosed that bit of info yet and he was beginning to regret it.
"What."
"Oh Alice he didn't tell you?" Vergil grinned. The bastard actually grinned. "He's going to school with you, just to keep an eye on you. Don't worry it won't last too long. It's just for now, in case anything should happen."
She sized Dante up, finally noticing his change of attire. He had on a long sleeved navy blue shirt, slightly tight black jeans and black high top converse.
"Fine, but he isn't sitting with me at lunch." She said with a huff and stood, placing her dirty dishes in the seat and grabbing her school bag.
Dante growled slightly "I'm right here you know."
"Whatever. Hurry up, we'll be late." She walked out the door after waving to Vergil, who was leaning against the counter next to his twin.
"Have fun."
"Shut the fuck up."
The pale twin laughed in response as his brother rolled his eyes and followed after the temperamental girl.
And don't believe a word they're telling to you
Don't believe a word they're telling to you
They let me down, when will I find where I fit in
I hate this town
What a world, come on never bring me down
Everything I had is turning back around
'Cause our times were something
Bigger than both, you and me
Crow-water High was as gloomy as it's name. It was one big black gothic structure, surrounded by small out of place white prefab classrooms. A few choice tree's were placed here and there, and the car park lay before large marble stairs leading up to the entrance. Dante had convinced Allie that they should take his bike. She resisted at first of course, but hopped on behind him after he accused her of being scared.
He revelled in the feel of her pressed up against her back. She was right there, safe with him and he was more than content in that moment. Yet it was cut short as he parked the bike and she hopped off almost instantaneously.
He followed after and took the time to assess the people who were lurking around their cars in various groups. Senior students tended to hang out in the car park, as they were the only ones who had cars.
A large group was standing around the stairs. Obviously they were the popularity in this place, as the majority of the girls weren't dressed for the brisk weather at all. A skinny girl in a tight skirt and top with straightened black hair spoke loudly over the others, flicking her hair as she went. The guys seemed entranced by her snarling pink lips and it confused Dante to no end. He never really had the teenager experience in high school like every body else and couldn't understand how a guy would plainly drool over a woman like that. Didn't they know that they were just feeding her greedy ego?
"Um… I think we should go up to the office to get you your timetable."
"Yeah, who's that?" He pointed at the girl he noticed before and Allie's mood suddenly darkened. It was as if a giant black cloud had just enveloped the whole car park.
"That's Isis Lightfoot. She seems like your type, no?"
"Isis? Like the Egyptian goddess?" He smirked. "Isn't that a bit egotistical?"
Allie barked out a harsh laugh. "You don't even know of it." Her soft baritone voice speaking with a sort of… was that smugness he heard?
They walked around the group, the blonde girl obviously trying to avoid attention. Sadly, she failed miserably as Isis's cool green eyes followed Allie up the stairs. A cruel smile twisted her pretty lips for a split second.
"Hey guy's check it out. Alice is back."
