Gwen's POV
I walked back into the living room with everyone else with lots of questions on my mind. The covents coming, how this should be done, but right now….
"What do you mean Yukki will die?"
"Gwen," Maria sighed sitting next to her husband chuck. "Time for a lesson in vampire biology." She said with an empty smile. "Vampires are not created to reproduce. But it doesn't mean we can't." She began. I took a seat next to Trent and let him wrap his arm around me.
"For two vampires creating a child is difficult, But not impossible. Vampires were made to only continue threw bites. But we can through children. But to outer mate, is almost impossible." She sighed.
"But somehow, we are not sure though, some couples manage to." Chuck spoke up. "Before vampires, like Maria, didn't exist, but after some research as to why she survived, it's become more common." He said. "But still deadly."
"Before a vampire and anything else to mate leads to death. Except for these rare cases." She said.
"But don't think we're proud of it. We are trying to fix it. But we have such few, for lack of a better term, studies." He said.
"So vampires can mate, but others can't?" I asked.
"They CAN. It just will likely lead to death." Marian clarified.
"We are trying to fix it." Chuck said.
"Vampires love children we want as many as we can get…." Maria began.
"Then why don't you two have a child?" I asked. Maria looked as if her heart had been torn out. "Uhhh I'm sorry for asking." I said apologetic.
"No it's okay. Since I am half human we can't have children. I was pregnant at one point but…" she said as she looked away and Chuck wrapped his arm around her.
"There were difficulties. We could only save one." He said for her. The room grew silent and sad as Maria collected herself. "We figured wait until we have a cure for this and try again." He said hugging her tightly. "It will happen" he whispered to her softly. "Which is also why I want Yukki here." He said. "I want to save her and her child. If I can, it will open so many doors." He smiled.
"What makes her so different?" Trent asked. "Isn't she another victim?"
"Her mate is a werewolf, whose fertility levels are extremely high and rarely have troubled birth like vampires and humans. This is why she is a perfect candidate. Well to be fair, Courtney would be the best candidate being a female werewolf, but I'd rather not ask." He smiled with a slight laugh.
"Back to serious matters." Maria said peeling herself from Chucks embrace. "The covent leaders will be here soon. You guys have to decide what to do." Maria said.
"How bout an interview, and…" Trent began
"Sure lets interview vampires that want ultimate power and will stop at nothing to get it. Good call." Duncan said with a roll of his eyes.
"Let's see you think of something." Trent snarled at him.
"HEY! No time for fighting." I said breaking the raising tension. "We need a plan. And I think an interview is a good direction."
"But they won't co-operate." Maria said.
"We make them." Trent said. "If they want us they must listen to what we have to say. We'll interview them one at a time." He began when we heard a knock at the door. We turned to Maria whose eyes flashed from purple back to there color.
"Open it." She smiled. Noah opened the door and Connor came in carrying a frail weak girl. I didn't recognize her at first. But that frail weak girl is the once strong and powerful Yukki.
"You can help right?" he asked threw gasps of air.
"I will do everything I can." Chuck said walking to them. He slowly took the girl from his arms and to the couch to lay her down. She looked like a ghost of herself. Frail limbs, ghost white skin, messy tattered hair, and a large belly housing her unborn child. I remember being so excited when I figured it out, but if I knew this was her fate, maybe we could have started to save her earlier. She looked horrible.
"It's not as bad as it looks." Chuck said. "I will try all I can do. You guys think of a way to get the covents information. Leave so I can work." He said. We were all pushed outside by Maria except for Connor, but after a few pushes he finally followed the crowd.
"So any ideas how we do it?" Duncan asked leaning against a tree.
"Werewolf posy." Trent said. "Vampires are afraid of you guys, if we give them an ultimatum they'll comply." He smiled.
"What ultimatum?" Courtney asked.
"Co-operate of be werewolf chow." He said. "But we won't be serious of course."
"I could work." I said.
"Worth a shot." Duncan said. we turned to Connor who nodded in agreement and then Maria but she was back inside. Helping Chuck with Yukki no doubt.
"Okay Maria said they'll be here soon so lets get ready." I said.
"Okay, wolves to the forest." Connor said before jumping off he deck into his wolf form and everyone following.
"What do we do after we interview them?" I asked Trent.
"We'll cross that bridge when we get there." He said holding my hand.
An: Ok this has been done for a month now and no I didn't forget to update. I didn't update on purpose why? Because the only reviews I am getting are threats to update and things saying how much this is like Twilight. I really hate that, so if you are going to review, tell me what you think and don't just say "UPDATE!" that pisses me off.
