Night Of The Land: Thanks for your constructive criticism. I'll finish the story then go through for &'s. Kyelle is heading to Seattle later, Ash gave Jesse the names of the two places Kyelle hangs out.

If anyone can spot something I messed up, let me know & I'll mention you here.


Jess woke up with a sharp pain in his shoulder. He sat up and looked around. He was in a morgue. His eyes fell on Kyelle, who was sleeping in a chair.

What's she doing in a morgue? For that matter what am I doing here?

"Ky?"

Kyelle twitched.

"Kyelle!"

She started. She blinked a couple times and looked at him.

"You're awake!" She sounded relieved.

"So are you."

She was aware she had fallen asleep, but was puzzled as to why. She could stay awake at night easily, all Dark-Hunters could, unless...they were injured(1). But Kyelle knew she wasn't injured. She shook her head to clear it.

"What happened?" Jess asked.

"You were shot."

"I figured. I meant since then."

"Ash is looking for the shooter."

"Jesse."

"No, it wasn't. If it was he would've been in more pain than you. Remember the rule.(2)"

Jess remembered, simply because feeling 10 times the pain wasn't something he wanted to experience. Kyelle looked both worried & tired. He guessed she'd looked for the shooter before coming. He stood up and walked over to Kyelle and sat next to her. She leaned on him. He put his arm around her shoulders, wincing slightly at the pain that shot through his shoulder. Kyelle was asleep. Jess closed his eyes & was soon asleep.

Tate came in with a pile of paper work, and saw the sleeping Dark-Hunters. He grinned as he looked for the pen he'd left behind.

The sun set and Jess and Kyelle were standing in the parking lot.

"You can stay at my place. Gods know I have more than enough room." She said.

"Thanks." He looked at the attractive Atlantian next to him.

Without warning, he kissed her.


AN: Yay! I'm back after nearly a week away from the computer.

1: Dark-Hunter instinct is to sleep when injured, because the Dream-Hunters heal them.

2: The rule is that if any Dark-Hunter attacks another Dark-Hunter the attacker feels 10 times (roughly) the pain
