The Journey to New York was a long one, but I filled up the time in my coffin, listening to my music. My Ipod went everywhere with me, I never knew when I'd be bored, happy, sad, my Ipod would be handy at any point.

I could hear James laughing in his coffin, which had been placed beside mine, but I couldn't hear anything from Godrics. I think he actually liked being in the coffin, gave him time to think and just be alone. Sometimes he did come across, as if he just wanted to be in a room alone, pondering everything in his mind, away from the rest of the world that he had lived on for so long. Would I last as long as him, live for 2000 years, god like a couple months ago I was hoping I would reach it to 100 and be a wrinkly old lady who wasn't too away with the faeries.

After an hour I felt the familiar sensation of the planes landing and the travel coffins being carried out. We were out minutes later, strolling through the check outs and out of the airport, deep into new york.

I was back home. Although I had been born in england and really that should be my home, it was a tainted country for me. New York had embraced me, sure there had been tough times, when I wished I wasn't having to live on my own so young, but I found a place, the same place I had lived in before James took me away to Dallas. It reminded me that I was in control of my life, most of the time and I wasn't the scared little girl I use to be, wondering if everything that had happened was her fault.

The lights dazzled me, looking like the northern lights, my vampire senses heightening the tones of the neon signs.

"Which way to the next persons house?" I asked as we climbed into a familiar yellow taxi cab. "This ones a bit different from the last, there's three of them living in one space, I remember that Rose had insisted they all live together so that she didn't have to travel so much, lazy cow, hopefully they still will be" James said quietly.

"If they are still together, what's the plan?" Godric said, leaning forward slightly to rest his arms on his legs. I watched every movement, sometimes he moved like he was made out of water. I felt a sharp dig in my side from James, who gave me a funny look, with a smirk and one eye brow raised. He leaned in and whispered "eyes on the mission, once were done you can fuck him with your eyes as much as you like"

"Is that a promise?"

"Yes." He moved away and looked again at Godric, who had turned his head slightly, sneakily trying to listen to our conversation, although with his vampire hearing he could be in another car and still hear if he wanted, so maybe the head tilt was to our benefit, so that we knew he was listening. "The plan is that if they still are in a three, then each of us will take one of them and try to find out as much information as possible. Of course Sophie will take the weakest one."

"Oi, why do I get the weak ones?"

"Because your glamouring skills aren't as good as mine and Godrics, also after your…experience, we should take it easy with you until your strength is back to normal."

I slumped back my seat, that was my sign to them that I was gonna just to do what they told me to. I had hoped being a vampire would make me stronger, so that I didn't have to be known as the weak one, the un stable one, I've had those titles and I worked for years to get rid of them, but I hadn't guessed that I would be kidnapped by psychos and tortured. C'est La Vie.

It took us another hour before we got to the penthouse, due to stupid New York traffic, that I didn't miss at all, wish I could have just run there, would have got there quicker.

Godric paid the driver and we all climbed out, starring up at the large building. James pointed up, his tone slightly wavering. "Their on the fifth floor" I held James's hand, wishing I knew what he was thinking, was it weird to re visit these places, what had he done here? All three of us looked around carefully as we looked around the empty lobby area before climbing into the lift. I felt James tense up as the doors shut, what the hell is going on with him. "James what's the matter?" I was trying to sound soothing, but his usually cheeky face looked like one of someone who had just seen a ghost and it made me nervous. "I fucked Rose in here, a quickie, before I met these people for the first time. Right up against that wall." He gestured towards the wall on the right, where Godric was resting against it casually, although he moved with lightning speed when he found out who else had been against that wall.

I was quick to get out of there as soon as the lift doors opened, Godric close behind me. It wasn't that it had been someone having sex in there, it was because it had been Rose, the idea of being in the same room that she had been in and felt pleasure in made my stomach crawl like a hundred ants.

James walked past me, his shoulders slumped, was he missing her or was he feeling disgusted as well by what he was remembering, I hoped it was the latter. He led us towards a large red door, it stood out from the rest of the beige wooden ones that surrounded it, it was definitely Rose's door. "I think Godric should go first, they might remember me." We shifted into position, James behind me, as I stood behind Godric, watching him bang on the door was his knuckles.

A large smokey eye gazed at us, as the door was inched opened slowly. "Who are you?" She said, her voice scratchy, like she'd smoked too many cigarettes. Godric leaned in and placed his eyes level with hers "Your going to let me and my friends in and your going to be nice and answer all I questions and you must not let any of your friends harm us"

The girl nodded and let go of the door, letting it swing on it's hinges. Letting me catch a glimpse of the place in side. Obviously Rose had designed the place herself. The place was covered in red and black furniture that looked so cliché. The floors covered in animal skin rugs, their heads still attached, their eyes wide and un blinking, laying on the floor. I looked across at the walls, saw the chains and whips hung neatly in rows, next to the heavy black curtains that blocked out the sunlight.

The girl led us in, her short leather skirt leaving nothing to the imagination, as it rose higher and higher with every step. She wore leather boots as well, that tied all the way to knee and were kept in place with red silk garters. She wore a red corset to match, her breasts pushed up so much that they were almost at ear height. She had obviously taken the goth, vampire look to the full, completing the look with dark smokey eyes and red lips.

On the sofa lay another human, a guy this time, also clad in leather, but this time tight black trousers and a silk red shirt. He looked like a casanova look a like, with tanned skin and bright green eyes, I can see why Rose liked him. I looked about trying to find the third person, but who ever they were was either hidden or had gone.

"Is it just the two of you?" Godric asked, sweeping closer towards them. "No, there's one more." The bloke said in a deep, heavily accented voice. "Blake! Come in here, we have company." James walked close to me, whispering in a voice that even I had a hard time hearing, so I doubt the humans could. "You take the girl, Lisa. I'll take Blake and Godric should take Antonio, he's kinda the leader." I saw Godric nod slightly, showing off again his amazing hearing.

As soon as Blake stepped into the room, James walked over to him and started talking to him, in a calm, glamouring tone, showing he was going to be quick in getting the information. Blake was quite good looking, with bright blonde hair and a sharp jaw line, he was wearing a string black vest and tight black trousers, although his weren't leather. I noticed for the first time that they all had little vials of blood around their necks. Their own? Rose's? Who knows, but that's definitely gonna be one of my questions.

I watched as Godric sat on the sofa near Antonio and started working the magic, I was left with the girl. I took her aside and looked deep into her eyes, trying not to get distracted by the mysterious vial. I let myself empty out, pulling her soul towards mine, feeling her mind in mine, manipulating it like dough, the pure power I had made me feel great. "Everythings gonna be fine Lisa, all I want to do is ask some questions." She nodded and kept her body still. "First, do you know any vampires?" One nod, "do you know one called Rose?" Another nod, "how well do you know Rose?"

"Very well"

"Good, now has she ever told you anything special, or secret?"

"Yes, lots. Often after she'd drunken from me and thought I was passed out on the wall."

"She hung you up on the wall?"

"Yes she loves to play, but we never put her up on the wall, that was never allowed."

I could feel the shivers creep up my spine, this woman was Rose's play thing and she didn't seem to care at all that Rose saw her as nothing else. "Has Rose ever talked to you about anything recently?"

"Yes."

"What?" It was like pulling teeth out, this girl had obviously been glamoured so much there was little left of her. "She talked to me about this guy James, who use to visit us, I had an orgy with him once."

"What did she say about James?" Really I did not want to know about James's colorful sex life, all though I knew he had one, you could see it on his face and the way he talked. Some people lived for culture, some for food, some for love, James had lived a lot of his life for sex. "She said that he was shacking up with some blonde bimbo human. That it had broken her and James up, that she hated the girl and wanted to pull out her heart and eat it, to wrench out her bones, one by one" Well she would never be able to do that, now that she was just a pile of goo. "Did she ever tell you about her kidnapping the girl?"

"She said someone had called her up during a party and had told her about a plan to capture and kill the girl."

"Did she say who this someone was?"

"No." Fuck, why was everyone so clueless! "Did she say what sex they were?"

"No." I wanted to shake the girl, but it wasn't her fault that she hadn't been told.

"When did you last see Rose?"

"A couple weeks ago, she was packing her stuff to go to her number ones house. She said she'd be back in a couple days, do you know where she is?"

"No. Now who's her number one?"

"Some guy who lives a couple blocks from here. I've never met him, but he's Rose's number one, the first human she ever took."

"Do you have any more information about this whole thing?"

"No."

It had a been a short and frustrating conversation, the information hadn't clued me up on anything, I knew that Rose hated me, I knew she had been in contact with someone who had come up with the whole kidnapping idea. I just hope her number one will know more then this girl, or that James and Godric had got more information. I looked around and saw them both standing by the door way, starring at me, waiting for my conversation to be over. I just had one last question.

"What's in those vials you carry round your necks?"

"Rose's blood, it's her way of saying she owns us. Were forbidden to open them though, it's for when Rose decides she wants to turn us. It's ever so romantic."

What the fuck that's not romantic at all, that's weird, fucking twisted. "You never saw us tonight, now go back to your normal life."

With that I walked away from her and followed the boys out of the flat.

Hey guys I know it's been a really long time and I'm sorry, been really busy. But now I've got loads of time and I'm gonna try and write the chapters as quick as possible and I hope they'll be good. Favorite and Review if you liked it =]
