Wolf: When Will I get any sheep?


"Van Helsing! Get the Fuck out here, You Lard ass!" She yelled. Van Helsing Came out with his crossbow as she pointed and he looked up, "His Brides..." he growled. Rika snapped out her switchblade, the Long blade glinting benevolently. She Jumped onto a small canopy and onto the roof of a building, then Ran to meet one as She leapt toward her. Her nails sharpened as she knocked her down, flicking out her blade as she grinned, "Hi...My name's Rika." She said as she stabbed for her heart. The Blonde-haired Bride screeched and Rika grabbed her sensitive ears, dropping the knife as she was knocked off. "Marishka." She said simply, then swiped at her. Rika slid under her and grabbed her knife, then slashed at Marishka's leg, making her screech again as Rika grit her teeth. She Leapt up and looked around, for Marishka had disappeared. "VH!" She yelled, running toward him when she saw her flying low toward him. She ran faster as her eyes went to slits as she Tackled Marishka and they rolled on the ground. Marishka tried to bite at her neck but Rika caught her jaws and held them away. Rika glared at Marishka with her slitted eyes as Marishka was caught off guard, then was kicked off of her as she caught Rika about her shoulders and lifted her up. "Oy! Let me Go, You overgrown Rat outta hell!" She cried, Taking her knife and cutting Marishka's Claw. She screeched and Let go, but Rika held on. "You Rat bastard, you hurt me!" She yelled, grabbing her wing and making her crash into the ground. Her blonde hair was wild as she changed into human form and glared at her. "Your sisters Aleera and that old hag over there, Verona, I guess...Well, Your all old hags, but I guess your used to seeing those crows feet in the mirror." She grinned as Marishka leapt for her and ran right into Rika's outstretched Blade. She screamed as Rika held on, keeping the knife in her heart as she grit her teeth against the pain and shoved it in farther. She scratched Rika as she knocked her away and clawed at her own chest, but finally crumbled to dust as the other two screamed in dispair and flew off. "That hurt." Rika said, looking at her arm. She scooped up her switchblade and dusted it off, "Thanks." She said and walked over to Van Helsing as she handed him his hat and sat beside him. "I hate Vampires." She said, leaning back. "Same here." he said, putting his hat back on. "Your bleeding." She said, looking at him. He nodded, Then sighed as he leaned back beside her, his crossbow resting beside him. "Thanks...Y'know from before." She said sheepishly.(Sheep? 'no, sheepish.' Gr.) "Your welcome." He said, looking at her. "You better get that looked at." he said, pointing to her arm. "I'll be fine. It's just a scratch." She said.

She sighed, then stood up. "Can't wait 'till they get back." She said, looking at the sky. He stood up beside her, "You sure your alright?" He asked. "Yeah...Are You?" she asked. "I've had worse." he said, also looking at the sky. "Ya think They're gonna go crying to Dracula?" she asked. "Why wouldn't they?" He said as they walked back to the inn. "Morbid Embarassment that they got beaten by a kid." She said, grinning. Van Helsing laughed and ruffled her hair, Making her playfully punch him in the ribs. When They went into the inn they were practicly Wrestling. He tossed his crossbow to Carl, Who caught it, and was jumped on by Rika, who instantly put him in the headlock. He flipped her over and had her head under his arm as she tried to escape, but slipped through and flipped on her hands and kicked him in the butt. "Ha HA!" She grinned. "Woah!" She cried and dodged him. "Nyah-oof!" She cried when he finally tackled her and started tickling her. "Ha ha ha! Okay Okay! Hee hee hee! Uncle! Uncle!" She cried, laughing until tears came to her eyes. He got off of her as she slowly stopped laughing, "I think I'm gonna throw up." She said laughing softly still. She giggle again as she got up, but leaned against Carl For support. "I have to go take a shower...I'm covered in mud, vampire dust, and...God knows what else." She said, walking back up the stairs.

She took down her hair, it cascading down her shoulders as she shivered slightly. She let out a shuddering sigh as her wounds healed the rest of the way. "Man, that was annoying..." She said softly. A knock came at her door and she raised an eyebrow, "Hope it ain't roomservice...I might get mad because they didn't leave a chocolate on my pillow." She said sarcasticly. She opened the door and saw Van Helsing, "Oh...Hey VH. What's up?" She said, letting him come in. "What?" He said. "Sorry...I still think I'm...Never mind. What's wrong?" She asked. "Um...Nothing, Really. I just wanted to know if you were really okay. If Marishka hadn't hesitated, You would have been drained." he said, looking down at her. "Yeah...Lucky she was." Rika said, looking off. She turned around and faced the window, looking panicked. If He had seen her eyes..."I mean...Something must have gotten to her in order for her to do that." She said, laughing nervously. She turned around and looked surprised, for Van Helsing was right behind her. "Rika...Why does everything you do intrigue me?" He said softly. "Because I'm something out of the ordinary, maybe?" She said, laughing nervously. She looked in his eyes and her breath caught in her chest. She closed her eyes and shook her head, "Van Helsing...I can't-" He stopped her with a kiss. She pulled away, Shaking her head, "No...I can't." She said. "I'm sorry Van Helsing...But I can't." She said, her hand braced against his chest. "Why?" He said. "I just can't...It would be too hard for either of us to cope." She said. He looked down and walked toward the Door, "Van Helsing...Please...Just Don't Hate me." She said. Van Helsing walked back over to her and kissed her forehead, "That is the last thing I would ever want to do." he said, smiling. She smiled as he left, then remembered her shower and immediatly went to take one.

After she curled up in bed, buried under a mountain of a blanket, She sighed softly in content. She held her switchblade close to her as she closed her eyes slowly and sighed again. "Daddy...Can you hear me? I can hear you." she said softly. "I wanted you to know that my curse still stands...I still attract too much attention." She said. "Please Daddy...Don't let me be alone anymore." she said, then fell into a Troubled sleep.
