A/N: okay, this is long, and i just couldn't look at the screen any longer so i apologize for all errors!

"So, how did you become Vampires?"

Beca was leaning into Chloe, the redheads arms wrapped around her as they relaxed on the couch. Aubrey was on the opposite end, her legs tucked under her.

They had left the room, and got comfortable in the living room, none of them realizing Stacies absence. Except Aubrey who was very aware she was gone. She was also painfully aware of what she was doing.

She ignored it as best she could, and her and Chloe had been talking with Beca about their lives, and how they handled being who they were.

Aubrey looked at Chloe and she nodded.

"It's not what you think, that I'm certain of." Aubrey smiled looking down, playing with the hem of her shirt.

"When I was five, the year was 1821. I lived with my family in Aiken South Carolina. We were just like every other family, nothing special. My mother was trying for another child, but wasn't having any luck." She explained.

Chloe rested her chin on Becas shoulder, knowing that Aubrey hated her past. Hated her story, and it was painful to look back on. But, she knew that Beca needed and deserved to know.

"There was this rumor, about this doctor that could supposedly help women get pregnant easier, he had formulated a liquid that if taken at the right time, could help the woman conceive. My mother and father were desperate, and so they contacted him."

She looked down, focusing on the movement of her fingers. Beca could see that Aubrey didn't like telling this story, that she was getting upset with every word.

"Bree, you don't have to tell me, it's okay." She said.

Aubrey looked up, her eyes held sadness but she smiled. "It's okay, Beca. It's the only way I can explain how I became who I am. Who Chloe is. Who you are." She said softly.

Beca nodded and Chloe kissed the side of her head before Aubrey continued.

"So, this doctor, he came to our house to speak with my parents, and I can remember it so clearly, it's like it just happened. He wore different clothes, not like most men wore in that time. And he wasn't as clean cut as my father, and the other people around us. I remember he almost seemed, dirty. Or unkept. I don't know, it was just different."

The front door opened and Aubrey stopped, turning to see Stacie walking in. She had a different outfit on than the night before. To their confusion, she was wearing a leather jacket, and Chaps.

"Why are you wearing that?" Chloe asked.

She looked at the redhead like she was stupid as she fell into the chair across from them.

"Because this is what I wear when I ride." She said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

"Ride?" Aubrey asked.

Stacie rolled her eyes, tossing her head back in annoyance. "Yes. Ride. As in, when I ride my motorcycle, I wear leather."

Beca perked up. "You have a motorcycle?" She asked, a hint of excitement in her voice.

Stacie smirked, seeing the look that had crossed Chloe's face.

"I do. It's much cooler, and easier to get around on then a car. I had to go get it," she glared at Aubrey. "Since I was forced to run here last night."

"What kind?" Beca asked.

Chloe didn't even try to hide her annoyance.

"Beca, Aubrey was telling you a story." She said and Beca instantly recoiled, leaning back into Chloes side, a look of apology on her face.

"Sorry Bree," she said.

Aubrey smiled at her softly. "It's okay, Beca we can finish later."

"No, please. Go on, I like Story time." Stacie said smiling at them mockingly.

Chloe took a calming breath and Beca turned to her, kissing her jaw lightly.

"Don't." She whispered. "Don't let her get to you."

Chloe calmed and looked at the younger girl. "Thanks." She said, knowing that if Beca hadn't said anything, she would have let Stacie get under her skin.

Aubrey was glaring at the vampire in question.

"So, anyway," she started. "My parents agreed to try this method, and-"

A loud groan came from Stacie and she stopped, looking over at her again. "This story again?" She asked.

"Leave." Beca growled.

Chloe, Aubrey and Stacie all looked at her.

"Excuse me?" Stacie asked, sitting up straighter.

Beca sat up too, feeling Chloes hand touch the small of her back, she knew she wasn't alone. That Chloe was right there.

"This isn't your home. You are hardly even welcome here, yet she is allowing you too stay. Have some respect. Show her the respect she deserves, or get out." She said sternly and Chloe couldn't help the smile that formed on her lips, feeling proud of Beca for standing up for Aubrey, especially against what they considered to be a wild vampire.

Stacie shot up to her feet and had crossed the room, her hand wrapping tightly around Beca's neck as they both flew over the couch, out of Chloes grasp, and she was slammed against the wall.

Chloe and Aubrey were next to her in second, but Stacie had already spoken.

"I don't give a shit that you are freshly turned, or that you're sired to Chloe, I don't even care that much that I'm tied into this. But if you're smart, you won't ever speak to me like that again." She growled. "You have no idea what you are defending." She glanced sideways at Aubrey, who was glaring at her.

Beca couldn't help the fear she felt, knowing that Stacie was obviously dangerous. At the same time, though. She wouldn't back down.

"I don't know what went on between you two, but I still stand by what I said." She hissed and lifted her arm, bringing it down onto Stacies. The taller brunette easily could have kept her grasp on Beca, but, allowed end to break the hold.

"Stop being a bitch, or get out." She said. Stacie smirked at her.

Chloe stepped forward, preparing to intervene if she had too. Aubreys fangs were visible and itching to sink into Stacie, her snarky attitude and lack of respect angering her to no end.

"You know Beca." Stacie said. Beca raised an eyebrow, listening. "I like you," she smiled. "Last night, you were this pathetic scared little girl, screaming for your girlfriend to save you, and now... You're speaking to the person almost responsible for your death as if you have the right,"

Beca was about to speak when Chloe stopped her.

"You only see what you want to see, Stacie. This is who Beca is, all the time. But I'd be scared to if I had something like you draining the life out of me," she said gently pushing Beca back toward the couch. She took the hint and she and Aubrey went back and sat down.

Chloes eyes flashed dangerously as she walked by her. "Touch her again, and it will be the biggest mistake of your worthless life." She growled walking by and sitting back with Beca.

Stacie stayed where she was for a few seconds before returning to her chair, keeping her mouth closed.

"So, my parents, agreed to this method. They saved up every cent they had, we suffered for a good few months. Not having enough space money for food, and things. But every night, my mother would put me to bed with the promise that soon it would be back to normal. That we couldn't be going to bed with empty bellies. And she would soon have another baby."

Beca felt Chloe shift beside her as they listened. Her eyes glancing over to see Stacie was also now listening politely. Her usual smug grin, replaced with a relaxed face.

"Finally, they had saved enough and he came back. He gave her this small bottle, and told her, to take it at the time they would usually..." She trailed off... "You know."

Beca smiled softly and nodded.

"So they did. With the promise, and the belief that it would work."

She sighed and looked up. "Needless to say, a month later, everything was back to normal. The money was used to take care of us. And we all went to bed with full bellies. Except for my mother, who found she still wasn't pregnant. My mother was distraught, my father furious. All the money they had saved, the time spent. And the trust and faith they put into this man, was for nothing."

Beca felt her heart hurting, seeing the look on Aubreys face, knowing she was hurting as well. Even after all this time, she still suffered.

"My parents were not vengeful people. They were kind, understanding people. But, they were so angry." She said. "They spread the word of this doctor who was nothing but a fraud, a liar, and a cheat who would steal your money, and you would get nothing. It wasn't very long before the word spread and he was no the town outcast. He was looked down on, cursed at. He was a tarnished name, and that angered him."

She looked up, meeting Chloes eyes. Chloe smiled softly at her and gave a nod of encouragement, knowing how badly this story effected her friend.

"One night, after my mother had tucked me in, and went to bed...I felt something cover mouth and nose and I tried to get away, only seeing a large shadow hovering over me. But, I passed out."

Becas mouth had fallen open, and she looked at Aubrey sadly. Chloe rested her head on Becas shoulder and looked over to Stacie.

Her face was sad, her lips in a frown as she listened. No matter how rude she was about it, she couldn't deny the upset that this particular story brought on. She could see, hear and feel the pain coming from Aubrey and it was hard to handle.

Aubrey was quiet for a long time, and Beca started to get worried.

"I never saw my parents again." She said.

Chloe nuzzled into Beca, and the shorter girl knew that this was just as uncomfortable for her, as it was for Aubrey.

"I don't know where he took me. I don't remember much of the first few months after it. I know that I was in a room by myself at night, and during the day, I was with him. He would always say that I was going to be the answer to all of his problems, that he was going to make me the answer. He said, that my parents had done wrong, but he would make it right, and I was going to help him."

"How?" Beca asked softly.

She smiled sadly. "He was certain, he could bring the myth of vampires to life. He just needed a test subject, and when my parents ruined him, he took me as punish,net to them, and reward to him. He said, I was perfect for this experiment. For a full year, he tested on me. He injected me with so many different things, thousands of times. I stopped fearing the needles he would bring toward me. I stopped fighting him after a while, knowing it would only earn me being beat until I could hardly move."

Becas eyes narrowed. This wasn't what she was expecting at all. She didn't really know what she though Aubrey was going to tell her, but it definitely wasn't this.

"I stopped screaming, I stopped to trying to get away from him. I did what I was told, I obeyed. I would react so badly to these tests, they were so painful. But, he told me they were working. I started craving things, or one thing in particular. Blood."

"What did he use to do this?" Beca asked in shock.

"I don't really know." She said. "He, altered my DNA, he targeted the things that made a human different from the Vampire. He injected me with the DNA of vampire bats, anything really, that fed off of blood."

"That's..."

"Absolutely unbelievable?"

She nodded slowly. "How does that even work, I mean..."

"I don't know, Beca. I really don't, but, it did, it did work. He made me like this. And I let him. I was his perfect subject, until a year later." She said.

Chloe tensed slightly. And Beca looked at her.

"She doesn't like this part of the story." Aubrey explained.

Chloe looked up. "I don't like any part of this story." She corrected.

Aubrey smiled. "I know."

Stacie had rested her head in her hand, as she gazed at Aubrey, listening and staying quiet.

"He, left for a long while. And I had been left int he room I slept in, chained by my wrists to the radiator. When he returned, he came in, released me, and left again.

She looked down. Not long after, the door opened once more and a small, frightened, girl was dropped in front of me. Her face was tear stained, and nearly as red as her hair."

Beca whipped around to face Chloe.

She smiled sadly at her and looked down.

"He told me, she was our new experiment. That I had done well, and now it was time to further his research. That she was my responsibility, and I was in charge of caring for her as he performed tests on her, using the same injections."

She took a breath, "including, my own blood. Altering her DNA, with mine."

Beca looked at her in shock. "He did what?"

"He succeeded with me. I was turning into a vampire. Slowly but surely, and he was greedy. He wanted more, he wanted to create the perfect vampire. So he found another child, and that child was Chloe. He tortured her, pushed her limits, and when he was done, I took care of her. It went on like this for years."

"Aubrey became everything I needed." Chloe said. "She nurtured me, comforted me, taught me everything she knew, and had learned. She protected me from him when he got angry." She said.

Beca looked at Aubrey, feeling a strong sense of gratitude and love for her. She was truly an amazing person...vampire.

"When we were around 18 years old, our fangs grew in. And he was happier than we'd ever seen him. We were no longer able to eat human food. Our eyes turned dark when we're hungry, and our senses were heightened, we were faster, and quick learners. But, above that, we were hungry.. For blood."

Beca had relaxed back against Chloe as she listened. "He fed us his own blood, and it made us stronger. Then as we got older, and stronger, we started talking, thinking. We wanted out. We wanted to get away from him, and we wouldn't leave each other behind. We started planning, started becoming defiant. This didn't go over well with him, and he lost his temper with Chloe. I listened for hours, as he beat, tortured, and did God knows what else to her. Promising worse if we didn't start behaving again. As another punishment, he starved us. For weeks. And the first time he fed us again, it was the most awful experience."

She looked down. "He locked us in a room, and in the room, was a teenage boy. He was bleeding from a wound on his head, and we couldn't stop. We couldn't think or try to reason with ourselves. We smelled his blood, and we were starving. The instincts that he... Forced into us, took over." She said.

Chloe looked down and Stacie shifted, looking away.

"We tore him to pieces." She said, her voice hard and angry and Beca looked up. "We could t control our thirst, and he loved it. He loved knowing that he has this control over us. And that's when he stopped feeding us his own blood. He would starve us instead. And then, bring us another human."

Chloe sighed. "We hated every minute of it. Our human minds, knowing how wrong it was, how horrible. We were monsters and we knew it. But we couldn't stop."

Stacie looked at her, her red eyes, narrowed.

"It was during one of the longest periods, that he starved us, that Chloe was so weak, and in so much pain, from hunger, that I told her to bite me." Aubrey said.

Stacie looked back at the blonde. And Beca nodded. "She did, and almost completely drained me, but she was so strong and alert after it. When I recovered, I drank from her, and we found our own blood, made us stronger than any human blood. It didn't take long to find we didn't need as much either."

Beca smiled. "That was very brave of you."

Aubrey smiled and looked down. "It saved us both." She smiled at Chloe. "It was another week, before the door opened, but we were waiting. We were strong, and he had no idea. So when it opened and a young girl was thrown in, bleeding from her neck, Chloe stood in front of her, as I attacked him. He was caught of guard, and I was able to shove him back enough for Chloe to escape, with the girl."

Beca smiled, as it sounded like it was finally going to become a bit happier, for them.

"I didn't expect him however, to have a needle on him, and he stabbed me with it. I don't know what was in it, but it was the most excruciating pain I had ever felt."

She said. Becas face dropped.

"Chloe heard my screams and came back for me. Ending in us both being caught, and separated. He found out how we had done it, and kept us apart, so that we couldn't feed from each other anymore." She said sadly.

"For almost two years, Chloe and I were kept apart. Neither of us knowing if the other was alive. He fed us the humans he found and over the years, we had completely lost all sense of our human selves. We were no longer humans, we were vampires."

Beca looked down. This was the most insane and terrifying story she had every heard. And to know it happened to the two girls sitting with her, made it worse.

"We were 21 when we stopped aging completely." She said.

"How did you escape?" Beca asked. She was now desperate to know.

Aubrey looked sideways at Stacie who looked away.

"Uh, one day, he... He came and took me from my room, he took me too the room where he would test on us. Chloe was already there." She said.

She looked up. "She was just standing in the corner, looking at the floor. She wouldn't look at me, and no matter how much I tried, she wouldn't speak to me."

Chloe stilled and Beca looked at her. "She won't tell you." Aubrey said. "She still hasn't told me, and it's been almost 200 years." She said softy.

Chloe wouldnt meet Becas eyes and she looked over to see Stacie giving her a pained look.

Aubrey coiled sadly and continued. "He told me, that it was time for the next step. He wanted to see how well he had done." She said.

"He brought out this girl, and stood her in front if me. She wasn't hurt, or crying, she was scared, but she fought angrily against him, and it shocked me, to see her fight him. To be brave enough to spout burst words and attempt to hit him. Until she looked up and our eyes met. That's when she stopped struggling. She was absolutely everything beautiful, at least 18 or 19 years old. And she looked at me in wonder, in fear. She waited. She didn't move, and I neither did I. Until, he ordered me to bite her."

Chloe looked away, and Stacie shifted uncomfortably. Aubrey sat up straighter, determined to get through this story.

"He told me, to bite her, but not drink. He told me to sink my fangs as deep as they would go, and inject her. He wanted me to turn her. She was going to be the first to be bitten by a vampire, one he created, now he wanted me to create my own."

Beca looked up, her eyes wide. "But I refused."

She laughed angrily. "I refused, because I knew it would work, I knew I would be taking this girls life and giving her immortality, and then what? She would be cursed to live like we were. So I said no."

Beca was listening so intently, she couldn't hear anything but Aubreys voice.

"So, he grabbed Chloe, and held this huge, needle to her throat. He told me, if I didn't, he would inject it into her, and she would die. He said, he brought her to life, so he could end her too."

Becas heart sank at hearing this and Aubrey reached up wiping away a tear that escaped from her eye.

"So, to save her... Because she was the only thing I had, I made a last minute plan. And I looked at her, willing her too see what I was thinking, and thankfully, she did."

Aubrey smiled at Chloe who had tears in her own eyes. Beca reached up and gently wiped them away. She smiled at her, and took her hand, kissing it softly.

Aubrey smiled at them, before she continued, "So I grabbed the girl and sunk my teeth into her neck. She tensed and screamed in pain. She tried so hard to get away from me, but I held on, injecting her with as much as I could. And when I was done, I dropped her."

Beca looked as though she were about to cry as well. "As soon as he lowered the needle, from Chloes neck. She turned, and grabbed it. He didn't have time to react, and she stabbed him in the neck with it, emptying it."

Beca gasped slightly. "Did it kill him?"

She laughed lightly. "I don't really know. I know that, I picked up the girl and Chloe and I ran as fast as we could. Hearing him screaming in pain the whole time. We found were were in an old abandon building that had fire damage, somewhere on the west coast. Never really knew where. We just ran, out into the sunlight for the first time since we were children, and luckily we didn't burst into flames."

Beca was pulled back against Chloe as the story came to an end.

"We ran for as long as we could, until we collapsed. Starving and exhausted, we fed from each other and made the promise to always stick together."

Beca smiled at her, knowing that the promise had obviously been kept."What about the girl? The one you took, did she survive?" She asked carefully. Not knowing if it were a sore subject, but she had to know.

Aubrey looked down and Chloe let out a small breath.

"Yeah, she survived." Beca looked over too see Stacie had her yes locked on Aubrey. They were watery, and angry.

Becas jaw dropped. "Wait, you?" She asked.

Stacie turned to her and Aubrey looked down. "Yep. Me. I was the girl, she bite and gave this awesome immortal life, to save her friend." She said standing up.

Chloe watched her, and Becas mind was running a hundred miles per hour. Aubrey hadn't spoken.

"Then doesn't that mean-"

Stacie walked toward the door, and stopped, turning. "Yeah." She snapped, looking at Aubrey. "That's exactly what it means."

Beca looked at Aubrey who still hadn't looked up from her lap. She could feel Chloe seething behind her. She opened the door and stepped out, and before the final slam, She growled,

"Aubrey is my sire."
