Lizzie

After a round or twelve with jade. Stamina baby, woo ho. I join up with the others. I had heard Judas call me, but I was busy.

The hall is riddled with dead people. So pretty. But I ignore them for know. I want to find my brother, or his woman. Which speak of it, I can smell her, and I recognize her scent from her apartment. And she is bleeding. I follow the scent, listening to the screams of pain. Oh I miss those so much.

I come to a thick door. Yep it's her; I can smell her so strong right now. And she is not alone. The door isn't locked and in there with her are several humans, trying to tie her up. She is fighting them fiercely. She kicks one back against the door, knocking it open. He bumps me so I break his neck.

The others see me and panic, one coming at me with a knife. I make him turn it on himself. Then I go after the other one. She looks up at me confused is I offer her my hand "hello natari" she smirks "I gotta find Davey" she replies. Well ill give her this, she is driven. No wonder he likes her.

She makes her way down the hall at a good pace despite her wounds. This must be agony for her. I catch her wrist, stopping her 'a present' I tell her at her confused look is I cut my palm, making it bleed freely, then drag it across her wounds, healing them. She nods a thank you and takes off down the hall, almost good is new.

Susannah

I can hear shouts, and then a horrible pain in my neck is he rips his teeth free. I fall to the floor with a cry. Rolling onto my back I see several guards trying to fight him back. But it's no use. Not even with Michael. In his wild state he is undefeatable.

One of them runs up to me and scoops me up. I cry at the pain of being moved. It doesn't help that he is running. Michael is the only one left. And he is already badly injured. His left arm is half gone. With a snarl Cain sinks his fangs viciously into his neck, tearing it is he feeds, even with Michael still fighting.

Cain grips his head between his hands and crushes it. I turn away, feeling the need to hurl. The man holding me sets me back on the floor and pulls a weapon. He runs at Cain. But Cain just grabs him by the face, his fingers digging through the bone. He rips into his neck, drinking hungrily, draining him in under a minute.

I can see body part, ripped off limb, a finger, half a jaw, someone's eye, ect. Cain drops the man with a snarl. So much blood, he is covered in it. His eyes standing out brightly against the redness. With a snarl he scoops me back up, and digs his teeth back into my neck.

Natari

'Davey!' I shout mentally, the out loud. A guy tries to cut me down but I hit him hard in the throat, collapsing his windpipe. I near a room that a robed fellow is unlocking frantically. I sneak up on him, silently picking up part of a chair from the floor, god bless poor lighting.

"Hey padre!" I shout. Startled he turns "learn to play nice!" I yell is I connect it with his head. I go to hit him some more but stop when I here something in there, it sounds like gasping.

Not even looking in I fling open the door, and stop dead in my tracks. It's Davey. He has a body in his arm and his mouth pressed against the neck. It's Susannah. Oh god. I rush in the room and quickly pull her away from him.

His roar surprised me but not enough to make me run. He looks awful. His leg is half gone, his back is battered, the remains of his shirt are hanging off his arms, his pants are torn, and his hair is tangled and greasy with more then sweat. And their is blood running down his body. His eyed are wild, like a starved animal.

"Davey" he whips his head in my direction with a snarl. I pull back a little is he rises to his feet but I am not ready to give up. 'Davey' he stops, his eyes clearing for a moment. "Nat" he whispers 'yes, it's me' he growls "lies" okay, time for a new tactic.

Slowly I move closer to him. His eyes never leaving me, that is until the girl moans. His gaze pivots to her, and his eyes darken at the sight of her blood. He moves over to her quickly "no!" I shout. In case you're wondering I total believe the vampire shit now.

I hurry across the floor and grab his shoulder. With a hiss he flings me across the room. I hit the wall with a crunching thud and spots before my eyes. Before I can get my breath back he is on me. His hand at my neck, and one holding my wrist to the ground. I meet his eyes.

He isn't there, the hunger has him. He has the same look they had, the ones who killed my parents. But he came back from it then, he can now.

Slowly I reach my hand toward him, a small cut on it dripping blood down onto my cheek. He turns toward it, smelling the blood. The grab hold of it hard, jerking me to his mouth. I flinch and hold in a cry is he sinks his teeth hungrily it my upper arm. My free arm I wrap around him. Holding him. "That's right, drink, go on" I tell him, as I fight back the dizzy feeling I am getting, and the shortness of breath.

The girl groans behind us and I turn to look at her. There is someone else in here! I can't get free, his hold is too strong. "Get away from her!" I shout at the stranger 'its all right natari, I am a friend' I hear him say in my head. I wince is he sinks his teeth deeper into my shoulder. I try to shake the dizzying feeling that is still growing.

Another one comes in the room. He passes the other and walks toward me. He stops and kneels next to me "hi there" he says calmly, is if we aren't in a building with lots of dead guys, and I am not getting the life sucked out of me by the guy I love.

"Hello" I say, and then wince is he jerks slightly. "So your natari, huh?" I nod yes. wondering way Davey doesn't seem to care he is here "oh, he wont notice anything but blood for a couple more meals, since your only number two." I nod "good to know, always said id die for him." he laughs slightly the gets serious is the other one walks over to us. "So, what's your tolerance for pain?" he asks "why" I reply.

He tilts his head toward Davey "because unless you were serious, we are going to have to rip him off you." I gulp then nod ", let me try something, if it doesn't work, do it" I answer. He nods is he gets behind my and wraps his arms around my waist. The other one grabs hold of Davey.

Okay her goes. 'Davey, baby' I whisper in his mind. Noting that he briefly relaxes. Okay, this might work. 'Davey, it's me, its Nat' I say. For a second I can feel him come back, but its starts to fade. 'Amin mela lee Cain' he responds 'Nat?' I smile, that's good. He is still feeding off me, but at least he can form thoughts.

'It's me baby' I say, felling his bite slacken. I see yet another, a guy with sunglasses, drags several unconscious men in the room, at least six. Three per hand. 'I love you baby' I say. Slowly his teeth pull out a little. Okay good, he is coming back. turning my head is much is I can I meet the guys eyes who is holding me and nod "oh, by the way, my names jack" says the gut holding me, right before some of my skin goes missing.

Davey

I let the world fall away at the smell of fresh blood in her. Somehow her voice managed to pierce my clouded mind. 'I love you baby' she whispers in my mind, bringing some of my sanity. She is speaking to me, I vaguely realize I know her; I don't want to hurt her. But I am so hungry. I have to eat. The smell is too much, I can't stop.

She stiffened is I deepen my bit. The she cries, but only for a moment. Don't hurt her, don't hurt her, don't hurt her. I force the word through my mind is her blood hits my tongue. My eyes roll back in my head, it feels so good. I can't stop. I don't want to stop.

I feel the girl moan softly against me in a moment of pain. No, not this one, I won't. Suddenly she isn't there anymore, startled and anger I roar, looking for her, for more blood. Then something warm is next to me.

Jack

I am surprised, she only screamed for a second, tough girl.

Cain is no longer trying to rip Judas's throat out, but is busy feasting on one of the priests. Drac is looking for Lizzie, and Judd is checking on the other girl in hear. Some chick named Susannah, who is missing some skin thank's to Cain. He lefts the girl up and nips his palm, letting the blood run down her throat.

"Ah Judd?" he turns to me. He nods at the stockade thingy. None on it is broken, which means Cain was let out. Must have been the girl, since she is holding the keys.

I go back to tying the wound of on this girl. I would turn her but its a strictly for Cain thing. I hope he gets done quickly; she lost a lot of blood feeding him. Damn stupid thing to do, she is lucky he didn't rip her throat out. She is hot though, no lying there.

I look over at Davey, who is still going at is full force. But he is almost back to sanity. One, maybe two more and he should be good. "So, jack, huh" she says in between breaths. Blood loose will do that.

"The ripper, at your service ma'am" I reply with a mock bow. She chuckles "I have your poster somewhere." I frown "please say it's not the hobbit" she frowns a little "yes, but its more Johnny then Ian." I laugh.

She looks at her arm and pouts " I thought you where supposed to be a doctor?" I smirk, 'surgeon actually, why?' she looks back at her arm "and that's the best you could do, why not bleed on it or something?"

I shake my had "cant, only buffet boy can, your his love, not mine." she nods "okay. Hey could you do me two favors?" I nod "sure" she takes a deep breath" okay, there both easy, first keep me talking, I don't want to faint, and stab me in the leg please." I look at her "uhm, okay?" "don't look at me like that, just do it." she huffs. "Oh I am not opposed to stabbing things, its quite fun, I just don't usually get asked to." she rolls her eyes "look, I can't feel my legs, so would you humor me!" she practically yells. I hold up my hands in defeat, jeez, women.

I find the cleanest thing I can, a bit scrap metal tied to a whip. Making sure none will break off I quickly shove it into her leg. She winces "damn!" catching her breath she looks back at me "thanks, now take it out." I give her a puppy look "but it fits so well." she doesn't smile. Okay, it comes out. Davey finishes the sixth one. And falls back to the ground with a sigh. Then turns his head toward us is he catches his breath. Getting to his feet he walks over here and pulls her into his arms, kissing her.

Davey

She winces slightly but kisses me back, holding my face in her hand "amin mela lle heruamin" she whispers. I rest my head against her forehead "and I you" she smiles, and then starts to cough. A small amount of blood appearing on her lip. That's never a good sign. She sees it is I wipe it of her lip. I clench my fist in rage.

She lightly takes it in hers. "Its okay, I found you." I chuckle softly "yes, you did, and I almost killed you" I say, looking at her, wincing at the thought that did that to her. She touches my cheek "I let you. I cut myself and let you drink from me." I shake my head "you shouldn't have, I could have ripped you apart." she brushes my lips "but you didn't." she says, then takes a deep breath and flinches slightly.

She is going to die. I can smell it on her, and I know I can save her. But I don't know what to do. One of the things I love so much about her is her mortality. The fact that she lives everyday is if it her last. And here she is, spending her last stuck here, in pain, on a cold floor surrounded by death. And it is my fault. If I hadn't pulled her from the dance floor, none of this would have happened.

But I wouldn't change a second of it, well except for the getting caught part. she pulls me out of my thoughts "Cain" I close my eyes is she says that name "Davey" I look back at her "its okay, I'm ready" I hug her to me, and start to say something about how being with me could be dangerous but she cuts me off with her finger against my lips "I trust you angel" I nod, understanding.

She is leaving it up to me. I won't let her go. I need her around. I love her. I lift her into a sitting position next to me, setting her on the fur coat Judas lays down on the floor. Running my finger through her hair I ask 'are you sure' she nods. Okay I guess where doing this. I take a deep breath and lean towards her neck "Davey" I pause "yeah?" you still owe me a duet." she laughs.

I just stay there in mid lean for a moment, silent, then shake my head "I know there's a reason I love you so much, ill find, hopefully. She just laughs.

It turns to a gasp is my teeth slip thru her skin. She tightens her grip on me and moans softly is I lean us back onto the soft fur beneath us. I can feel her heart struggling to keep the blood moving, even is I drain the little she has left. If I take anymore she will die before I can finish. I pull back, hearing her groan so softly is my teeth slip out of her neck. She smiles weakly up at me and I nod back to her, telling her its okay.

I turn to Jack, and he nods, handing me a knife from one of the humans laying dead somewhere. I push the tip into my neck, puncturing the artery, a hole no bigger the a tooth would make, and then I drag the blade across a few inches, making the wound gush. I pull her to me, and guide her to the wound. She doesn't need any encouragement.

I groan is she sucks deeply on the blood, letting it slip down her throat, into her stomach. Into her veins. She will be strong, I will make sure. But I wont make her fight, I wont make it hurt. the wound starts to close up is I pull her back from my neck and bite into her again, feeling her tense for a moment then relax into the feeling is I drink from her again, feeling her body weaken from the stolen blood.

But each time I drink from her, her body becomes stronger. Each time my blood enters her veins again, it makes them stronger. So I drink from her, and give back what I took, five times. Making her nearly stronger then me. The last time she bites into my neck on her own. I sigh at the feeling; it sends a shiver done my spine.

She pulls back is the wound closes up with a sigh. "I think I found it" she mumbles. I look at her confused and she laughs "I found my better then chocolate." I laugh and shake my head, watching her yawn. She will want to sleep for a while, they all do after this. I mean come on, dying takes a lot out of a person. I scoop her up, wrapping the jacket around her like a cocoon. If Judas complains ill just by him a new one. But he shouldn't, he put it on the ground after all.

We start walking out. The fighting had ended a little while ago, from what I can hear, anyways. We pass the door and I hear a click. Crap. But the shot doesn't go off. I see Lizzie and Drac standing there. She smirks "couldn't resist" she says, and then makes the noise again. "See she found you after all." she quips. "Yeah, she did."

I look down at her, sleeping. I cough slightly is a hand connects with my shoulder, "well brother, not bad, just do it a dozen or more times and were finish." jokes Drac. I shake my head "twice, your turn" I say is I start walking out of the building. The others will bring it down, I know it. Right know I just want to get back home, and get some sleep.

Ariel

I wake up to find Jade sitting on a chair watching TV, and seemingly fascinated by it. I am kind of to, its weird, but everything seems different, and you know, the whole bigger and better deal. The light from the TV kind of hurts my eyes though. I look at him, guess it does him to.

"Jade" he turns to me, "yeah babe" oh he said babe, okay breath "you okay?" he nods, "you fixed me up just fine, I think. Ill let you know if stuff starts falling off." he jokes. I laugh slightly "sorry about that." he shakes his head "don't apologize to me, you got bigger fish."

I look at him confused. He sighs "okay, you know how only Jack touched you." I nod "uhuh" feeling like a idiot "that's cause he claimed you. If you're claimed no one but that one can touch you." he finishes "oh. So, this is bad?" he nods "possibly very" okay shit "so whose gonna hate me?" I ask meekly. "Davey" he says coolly. "Wait, what, 'Davey', oh I can total take him, he is a twig." I start to laugh, until I realize he is looking at me funny "or not?" I ask, somewhat deflated "or not" he answers. "Davey is stronger then Jack, Davey is Cain." jaw drop moment. "Cain. Bible Cain, I am so dead." I ask, I know, stupid question.

Then something else catches my attention. Someone new is coming, or new is in before I started becoming a vampy. I move closer to Jade, who seems oddly come. He goes to open the door but I stop him "wait, what if it's Cain?" he continues forward "it is." he say calmly, cause he doesn't have to worry about being killed, again.

"What, and your just gonna open the door!" he shrugs, "yeah" he takes another step before I hop on his back, covering his eyes "hey what the, get off" he shout in surprise and starts spinning, trying to get me off "no way, get back from that knob!" I demand and lean backward, sending him hopping on one foot backward until we hit the couch and fall over it with a yell.

He sits up and looks at me with a grin. "Girl. Would you please chill?" I shake my head "no way, you just said he is going to kill me!" I say in a high voice. He just grabs his head. "Okay, th..." he stops is the door opens. I peek over the couch, then quick hide behind it "he's here" I whisper. He just shakes his head "calm down, go back to the bedroom, ill be there in a minute, I promise he says with a growing grin. I frown at him then hurriedly crawl into the bedroom and slam the door shut, locking it.

Davey

I watch her crawl and suppress a laugh. And what were they doing hiding behind the couch anyways. And why does Jade not smell like Jade. I look at him curios but he shake his head "her first." he says, pointing to Nat, who is still in my arms.

He clears off the couch and props her head on a pillow is I set her down. I brush a strand of hair from her eyes before I turn back to Jade. And know I am certain he smells different. And unless I am mistaken, I can smell a little of Jacks blood in there.

He holds up his hands "okay, before you go and barge into the bedroom just let me talk." I look at the door, I don't sense him in there "Jacks not here?" he looks at me grossed out "oh like I let him turning, ehh" he shudders briefly "no, Jack didn't do this. His new one did." okay Jack turned someone, and they turned Jade, okay, so who is it "its Ariel"

I furrow my brow and look at the door, the chick from the hospital. Damn i've only been gone a few days. "Okay so she turned you, she pays for breaking the law." I go towards the door but he stops me "wait, just let me explain okay, I mean, she already thinks your gonna kill her, just let me talk okay?" I sigh "alright, lets hear this." I go back to leaning on the counter is Jade take a chair.

"Okay here's the jist. You left, ended up at park with Nat. Ariel walked through there. Jack bit her. She bit him. Stabbed him in eye and ran. You call. I come. Find her. Bring her to Nat's. Drac, Lizzie, Jack and Judas show up. Reunion moments happen. Jack get thirsty, and feed her a little three different times. I watch her. She starts turning, slowly getting worse. Me and her alone. She has nightmare and half asleep hugs me. Biting ensues. I snap her out of it. She panics and feeds me. Jack comes back. Her turns her, finally."

I let out a deep breath. I can't really blame the girl. I have attacked things when I am half asleep myself. And she turned him because she didn't know what else to do. Plus she wasn't officially a vampire yet, as Jack turned her after the attack.

Now I am glad Jade is still alive and everything, but I claimed him so he would stay human, like he wanted. "Okay, ill let this go if you're cool with it?" he nods "I am kind stuck with it now, so why bitch; it won't change anything, right." I nod. It won't. "Okay then, now if you don't mind, I want the bedroom." I grin.

He nods "yes sir, just, let me get her out of there." he pleads. I put up my hands "by all mean, go right ahead." he disappears into the bedroom, and not a minute later the door opens and she runs out, damn near tackling me "whoa! Hi?" I look to Jade and he just laughs "thanks for not killing me, I gotta go."

I just watch is she leave the room. I look at Jade, and he sighs, "I think ill follow her." I just shake my head in dismay is he leave. And from what I can hear, puts up the do not disturb sign. I pick her up gently; smiling is she mumbles something about pancakes. Then carry her into the bedroom, kicking the door shut behind us. Don't even think of looking inside.
