~Ray's POV~

All of the lovey-dovey readers have already imagined this entire section of the story up, probably. You're thinking that I'm going to say "I'm happy because I love Aiden!" just like that. Alright, I'll give you guys a bit of a break there. I was thinking things along the lines of Gosh, Aiden looks so good right now. And he's so sweet. I think I might... Aiden just gave a little smirk. "How good do I look?"

"Well, you really don't, I guess. Thanks for pointing that mistake out!" Aha! If you can control your thoughts around them, they have no power over you! I had found their weakness. I smiled at Aiden and skipped into the house before he could react. Quite honestly, I hadn't figured out why I was happy all of a sudden. But I had figured out how to make them think I had! They couldn't snoop into my mind anymore. Well, I guess they could. But now I had a weapon!

Take that lovey-dovey readers! Anyways...

Aiden bounced back from it pretty well. He laughed about it and all that. But I did apologize. It was kind of mean. Moral obligation and all of that. They saved my life, I ad to be nice to them. That was the deal. I don't think they liked my thinking, though. I didn't know why I was in such a twisted mood, but I most definitely was.

After a while of me torturing them for a while, I realized that I had gone about five days without sleeping. Whoa. Guess half vampires didn't sleep much, but I was just about dead at that moment. I lied down slowly on the couch, trying not to let the boys know. Right. Because not letting the snoopy vampires who watched my every move that I was sleepy was possible...

"We'll take you home. They're probably worried about you. And we don't have any beds you to sleep in."

"No! There is no way in hell anyone is carrying me or that I'm running. I... I feel dizzy."

"Hmm... That's not good."

"Why?"

"Because vampires don't get sleepy and they don't get dizzy. We're thinking your transformation... isn't done..."

Whoa! I was wide awake now. "What?! You mean there's a chance I'll have to go through that all over again?" All three of the boys winced at the thought, but reluctantly nodded. "Well, has a afhl vampire ever made it this far? Maybe it is done. You don't know!"

"Ray don't be ridiculous. There was a time when half vampires were... well, they sort of ruled over the vampires, actually. We have documentation of what happens. This happened a few times in the records..."

"And what happened?" They all froze. Once again, Ludin was the only one brave enough to answer.

"Well, two things really. One, the second transformation was a lot more painful than the first. A lot of them either went insane or died..."

"And the second?"

"Well, the second possibility pretty much made war break out because they were the most powerful beings ever born..."

"That's great! That's just great! I'm a freak! Either I'll die, go insane, or cause all hell to break loose! That's just great! And I can't believe... Whoa." A sudden head rush came into my head at that point and I clung my hand over my forehead, willing myself to think straight. It didn't work very well as I got dizzier and dizzier before suddenly falling to the floor unconscious.
