AN: Oh dear, sweet Hannah. You say what we all want to hear… 7 reviews?

I spun around to face Hannah. "How do you know Alice?" I asked, my voice deadly. I felt fear spike through the young girl.

" I just knew you were worrying. I wondered what about, and just saw that girl. Alice." She stuttered. "Who is she?"

"She's my wife. I left her because she was unhappy." I answered shortly. Hannah's red eyes looked up at me. I felt…pity…flowing off her. "What?"

"Are you really that dense. You left because she was unhappy?"

I was now hopelessly confused. "What do you mean?"

"Why was she unhappy." Hannah asked.

"I almost killed her best friend. My brother left because of that. And it made Alice upset. So I left." I said.

Shock flew out from Hannah. "You took her best friend, and then her brother, and thought it was a good idea just to take off! I may be 14, but even I know that you shouldn't have done that."

I was taken aback. She had just spoken every insecurity I had about leaving. And she didn't even know Alice. I pushed these thoughts to the back of my mind.

"Let's go hunting." I said as I took off towards town at a pace I knew Hannah could keep up with.

I watched as she took down her kill. She must have a gift. Maybe when she was a human she found out what people were worried about. It was best just not to tell Maria this. She had been know for killing anything with un-useful powers. And I wanted to give Hannah the best chance of a second life as I could.

"Are you hunting?" Hannah asked. She sounded a bit stronger now. I was glad.

"Yeah. Do you want to go anywhere?" I asked. It was normal for newborns to pick up things to do while on hunts.

"I wanted to stop at an art store. Can we just meet back at the edge of town?" She asked. I wasn't worried about the other newborns because they would be hunting, and nothing else.

"Sure." I dropped off the rooftop I had been sitting on and headed towards the worst part of town, walking human speed. My mind was far in the past.

"Alice, what would you do if I ever left you?" I asked. She looked up from where she was sitting in my lap.

"You can't leave me. It's just a fact."

"How do you get that?" I softly kissed the top of her head. She smelled like all the best things in the world. To me, she was all the best things in the world.

"Well, I can always see you. No matter where you go." She said. " But I don't have to worry, because you will never truly leave me, will you?"

What had she meant by that. I snorted. What had she meant by anything. She was Alice. Living three steps ahead of anyone. You didn't know what she meant until it had came to pass.

A man stepped in front of me. He was stick skinny, in a unhealthy way. I could smell the drugs on him. He was in deep.

"I need a way out. She said you where the way out." He said in a flat monotone.

"Who?" I asked. I had an awful feeling about this.

"The girl." He gave off no emotions. It was like stepping into a dark room for me.

"Which girl?" I asked. I needed to find this out. Now.

"She said you wouldn't kill me. She said I had to make my move. But I have already done that." He rolled up his sleeve to show words written in blood. It appeared that he had cut them into himself. One was still bleeding. I took a step back. The man walked calmly forward.

"I can't." I hissed.

"Please." For the first time, I felt something off this man. Heartbreak. "She overdosed last night. I can't live with out her. Please."

I closed my eyes and pulled my hand back. I pictured Alice's heartbroken face, as I took the life of a man with nothing left to live for. Now I knew what I had to do.

AN: Wow. I love this chapter. I didn't think I would. I think I will get 7 review pretty fast. Then update! Now to refresh my email every five seconds while bugging my mom about the next chapter…
