Night Sky 14

I look up to come in eye contact with Austin. 'What's going on?' I think. I run up to the house. A police officer stops me. "You're not aloud to cross this tape." He says.

"This is my house." I say.

"I'm sorry but I can't let you enter. Can you come with me please?" I follow the police officer to a police car.

"Is my family okay? Where are they. I want to see them?" I order very franticly and scared.

" Ally? That's your name right?" I nod my head. "I'm very sorry to have to say this but we found two bodies in the house. They were found dead." I couldn't control myself.

"What?" My vampire temper is raging.

"I'm very sorry for your loss. You'll have to come to the station to fill out some forms."

"I'm not going anywhere." My vampire temper starting raging and I couldn't help my self. My emotions go out of control and I attack the police officer. Blood tastes better when it's revenge. Suddenly the blood stops when I feel pressure on my shoulder getting pushed away.

"What the hell are you doing?" Austin scolds me. He compels the police officer, "Leave. Forget that anything ever happened." The police officer walks away. Austin dprags me over to the side where no one could listen to our conversation. "What the hell are you doing?"

"Did you not hear what he said. My parents are dead!" I say in anger.

"I know. But that doesn't give you any more right to just feed on him without a good excuse. That was not a good enough excuse. I'm sure giving you the news is just his job. You can't just feed on people because you think you can because you can't."

"I'm sorry. I'm just going to go to the mansion." I walk away slowly.

"You are in no condition to go alone. I'm coming with you."

Austin's POV

We get in my car and drive off away from the crime scene. The police officer said they would give us more information as soon as possible about what exactly happened to her parents and why the fire started. As we are driving to my house thoughts of Ally and how she is doing racing thoughts through my head. "Ally?" I say to her as soft as I could. I heard a sniffle come from her. Oh, no. She's crying. Of course she's crying. She just found out that her mom and dad are dead. What is wrong with me? We arrive at my house. She gets out of the car by herself and walks slowly to the house. She decides to take the lead so I walk behind her. She opens the door slowly as well and enters the living room and falls on the couch. I touch her back as I sit next to her. She starts to cry. "Ally." She stands up and vampire runs in front of the fireplace and knocks down all the photos of the four of us. I wouldn't blame her. She just needs to get some steam out.

"It's all my fault!" She cries hysterically. She knocks down the objects in the end table. They crash on the ground. She picks up a large broken piece. "Why doesn't this have to happen to me?" She picks up the half broken glass candle holder and throws it above the burning fireplace. It shatters into a million pieces. I go up to her and grab her shoulder to comfort her but she just looses feeling in her knees and falls to the ground crying even harder. I didn't think she could but she did.

"Ally, your emotions are heightened. What humans feel is grief but what your feeling is loss. Remember what I told you? It can destroy you. You just have to control it. Don't let the emotions get to you." I tell her. She cries still. It hurts me to see her this way. "She breathe." I caress her face softly.

"Its not working. Can you please just help me." Ally cries. "I don't want to feel like this anymore. Please. Just help me." I'm trying. There's only one more option left to try. When it's her choice.

"Ally I'm sorry you have to go through this. I now how hard it is for you to keep your self from turning your emotions off. But you have to fight yourself from doing so."

"I can't anymore. I don't want to feel like this. I'm all alone!" She hugs he r knees and puts her face on the floor and cries more. "I can't. I can't!" She cries. I lift her face so she has full eye contact.

"I can help you."

"Please." Ally cries.

I put my hand on her cheek and hold her in my arms. I don't now how long I'm going to be able to do this so I take my time. "Just listen to the sound of my voice. I'm going to help you." We make eye can't act with each other. "Turn it off." Ally makes a confused look. "You have the choice to turn it off. You can do it. Just turn off your emotions Ally. Turn off your humanity." Ally's grip gets lighter which means it must have worked. She stops crying and looks at me with a emotionless face.

Ally POV

Austin lets me go up to my room in his house and enter the room. My house is burnt down. My family is gone. Dead. I walk up to my dresser drawer. On top sits a family portrait of me and my family when I was eight. We were laughing around a campfire. I pick it up letting my thumbs touch the glass and my fingers hold behind. I squeeze the frame until the picture shatters into many pieces. I drop the picture on the dresser and walk away.
