Day 7

I couldn't believe I did that to Thomas, what was I thinking? I was more beast than man back there. I had a brief flash of when I tried to talk to Polix and the words wouldn't come out of me- Polix what happened to him, what was the poison doing? Will he be dead over night?

Breakfast was coming up and I was kinda hungry, but, not used to having my meals backwards. I didn't know where my legs were taking me but I left the living room and went into the infirmary to see what was going on. I heard Polix the minute I hit the hall, he was throwing up all over the place.

Anna and Tranquil were trying to calm him down but it kept happening. 'Damn, that's the breaks.' I thought and felt a hand on my shoulder automatically knowing who it was I acted cool keeping my voice un-surprised.

"He's really gonna suffer, huh?" I asked him and he nodded without a word- at least, I think he nodded- he didn't respond and I didn't turn around to see his face.

"So what do we do now?" I asked him, hoping for an answer I didn't have to read his face for and I heard him mentally. 'We wait for him to die and than we take over and run the vampires the way we see fit. We'll take over humanity and be kings-, that simple.'

He let go of my shoulder and we walked down the hall, he went to his room and I went into the living room again, there were three girls in there and a guy, I thought for a second to leave them alone but hey, I'm gonna be a ruler pretty soon.

I sat down next to a girl with curly hair and pale skin she had darling cheeks and a slight dimple in her cheek.

She glanced at me when I came up beside her and slapped her ass.

"You're the boy everyone keeps talking about?" She said to me

"Yeah, the names Chaos, what's yours?" I asked.

"Death." She said with a quant smile.

I raised an eye brow to her odd name and had to ask "Why?" She looked at me confused a moment and looked over at no name blowing him a kiss causing a puff of smoke to rise around him and he held his throat dying.

"Wow." was all I could get out in disbelief it's a wonder with magic like that that she couldn't be the leader.

We watched television for a while and than she kissed me good bye- which at first I thought was odd but than I noticed how touchy feely they were with one another so it didn't bother me much. "Talk to you later." I said and watched her leave.

In the infirmary.

Polix just got over his stomach pain and he was lying down looking almost dead. "I just don't get how he could have been poisoned," Tranquil said drawing blood from him for a testing to get an antidote. "I think that maybe Caster did it." Tranquil shot Anna a look that meant for her to shut up and she just shrugged.

"I just think it's rotten to leave him this way. The poison isn't strong but he's still in pain." She said putting a wet rag on his forehead and rubbed it down his face. "Does Taurus know?" She asked. "I just called her down, she should be here pretty soon."

Caster walked in and stood over his brother. They stood aside and watched him, he punched him in the mouth, "Caster?" They both shouted with a gasp and Polix coughed blood away.

"You should have listened to me in the first place, you deserve this." Caster said and with that he walked away with Annastetics at his heals.

"Caster? I don't understand any of this, care to explain?" Anna asked raising an eyebrow to him. "I have," a pause, "Nothing to say to you, good bye Anna." He turned and started walking but froze and spoke over his shoulder. "One more thing, remember what I said and if you help him. I'll kill you." He disappeared into the atmosphere.

Tranquil put his hands on her shoulders and rubbed them slightly. "Lets just go to bed." He said and walked down the hall to his room, but she turned back into the medical room to work on an antidote.

* * *

Dinner was something to be seen, Caster was being extremely friendly and sociable- not at all like his o-natural self- everyone was laughing and telling stories of their most triumphant days, but something occurred to me during all of this. "Where's Thomas?" I asked.

"Who?" Caster replied.

"Thomas, the boy I fought in the ring?"

He gave me the oddest look and then smiled. "He's downstairs in the tombs, he'll be lost for a good while- unless the zombies find him." His smile got bigger at the thought and I stood up to leave.

"Hey?!" I heard him shout to my back. "What's the big deal, he's just food anyway." They all broke into a laugh on someone's expense, hopefully not mine. Where are the tombs I wondered as I wandered down the halls. "I'll never find it this way....." I said to myself running a hand through my hair and looking around. "Teleport!" I nearly shouted, snapping my fingers. I'd seen Caster and Polix do that a billion times over, it should be easy.

I thought of where I wanted to go- or rather what a tomb should look like and my body took a moment of hesitation than- nothing. "Damn it!" 'Why didn't I take those lessons with Aries, now she hates me and I'm stuck looking on foot.' I thought than grumbled to myself and my body shifted into another room. "I did it! I-...!" cut myself off from shouting anymore because I heard the oddest sounds coming from the bed-coffin, seeing the dead flowers I noticed that I was in Polix's room.

At first I thought it was painful moaning but than I noticed that there was more than one voice in there and I got a little interested so I went to take a peek, I never seen a guy on guy before- course I never seen with my own eyes a guy on girl- just because you've done it doesn't mean you've seen it. As I krept over to the bed I made sure to clear my mind of any thoughts that could be picked up and I looked through the window. It was Polix and Taurus!

He was at the bottom paler than normal from being poisoned and she was on top not the least bit un-dressed which soon drew my attention to the skirt and it all made sense, slapping my hand over my mouth to avoid any sudden noises I disappeared again, this time ending up in the bathroom of someone's room. "Focus dumb ass." I said to myself closing my eyes and thinking of where I want to be.

"I can take you to the tombs, ya know." I snapped my eyes open and looked to see Sparx in my face with an odd grin on her face. "You can?" I asked with a 'duh.' in the back of my mind. She shrugged with a nod and than gestured for me to come with her so I followed. She seems nice to talk to, she kept conversation with me the whole way down there. "You know what you're easy to be around." I said to her and she smiled a 'Thank you.' and continued talking to me about anything that came to mind until finally-....

"Here we are,." She pointed "just go down that stair well and you can't miss it."

She turned away and started back up the hall. "Wait!" I yelled to her and she turned. "What?" Sounded annoyed suddenly, 'I guess she sparks up an attitude as easily as a fire ball. "Can you help me train sometime?" I asked feeling like a dumb shy kid asking an older woman to see her top.

"Yeah, whatever." She responded and walked off.

"Okay." I said to myself and walked into a hall way; I heard no sounds and saw no signs of Thomas down here. 'He could have been lying for his jollies.' I thought until I heard a low whisper in the corner of one of the rooms. "Thomas?" I walked over to the huddle of clothes and looked into it's face and found out seconds after it definitely wasn't him, the person in the room clawed at my face and I staggered away closing the door behind me than went to another cell where it sounded like a normal human was inside. "Thomas?" I called in.

"Tum?" He said shuddering in a corner and I tore the door open and walked inside only to have him cringe away from me. "What's the matter?" I asked. "Stay away from me! You're one of them, one of those monsters!" He shouted at the top of his lungs with tears running down his cheeks.

"No I'm not, I'm gonna get you out of here and home now grab my hand." I commanded him. but he didn't listen I heard howls and growls a distance away and coming closer I turned my head and saw the shadows of the zombies coming up the halls. "Shit, we gotta go now!" I yelled to him.

"Leave me alone!" He shouted back and I grabbed his hands and pulled him up running and dragging him along- but we were blocked in! they were at all of our sides! "Help me!" Thomas was shouting in panic I tried to stay calm and think of where I wanna be and the living room popped into mind and we teleported just as they dived on us.

* * *

In my bed room I sat on the bed with my ears pricked up to every sound Thomas made around me; I wanted him.

His fear smelled so sweet and cinnamon like I wanted to cross the room and suck him dry right then and there, he froze from his walking and looked at me.

"You're one of them, aren't you?" He asked me again. I looked at him and nodded, he walked over to me and sat on the bed next to me- I wished he didn't he was to close, I needed it everyone else was getting ready for bed right now so I couldn't ask where they kept the supply of blood for when I got thirsty during the day. "When did this happen?" He asked cutting through my thoughts. "It was on the second night that I went on a date with Leo. She turned me."

He looked at me with question, confusion, and a bit of fear because he saw the lust in my eyes. "I won't-....I won't bite you." I said not believing the words at all and he must not have either because he moved further away from me on the bed. I smirked at him and his fear and innocents to what the world was really like.

"Why didn't you come to me for help?" He asked after a long silence, I danced around that answer because I didn't know myself it's like my mind was being taken from me every time I saw these people. "They were scary, I wanted to fit in and be excepted- it's either be in or be killed and you know my answer to that question." I said standing and pacing back and fourth.

"Yeah, you chose to die, you're dead! You have no right to try to come back to the world by saving me, because it won't make up for the things I know you've done!" He said and continued his accusations of me.

"And what is it that you think I've done?" I asked him stopping my pace and looking at him with the sharpest eyes letting him know that I was not afraid of what could easily happen to him if I let all my senses go. He held back like a dramatic pause.

"Spit it out!" I shouted at him.

"You killed your parents......you killed your fucking parents!" He shouted.

"I what?" I really hadn't the slightest idea as to what he was talking about, my parent's were fine, I know they are.

"It was all over the news- or don't they have televisions here?" He looked away from me with disgust.

"When did I.......?" My mind spun and I held my ears from this high pitched ringing sound, dropping to my knees I screamed in pain, through a blur I saw Thomas looking at me in panic. He got off the bed and walked over to me putting a hand on my back. "Are you OK?" He asked me- I think, he than proceeded to say things that I couldn't hear at all and I blacked out.

When I woke up I saw Thomas leaning over me while I lay in bed, 'he was still here?' I don't know if I thought it with relief or more of a question as to why he hadn't gone yet.

"Are you all right now?" He asked and moved away towards the door.

I held my head groaning and nodded with response of a, "yeah."

"Good, now take me home, I can't get out of here by myself you know?" He was angry, I don't blame him I would be too.

"Alright, come on." I stood up shakily and walked to the door, when I opened it and we entered the hall Leo was standing by the door. She gave me an odd stare and than smiled and whispered in my ear, "when you get back we gotta talk." She patted my shoulder and walked into my room. 'Trouble or action?' I thought as we walked downstairs to the front door; when I opened it I shoved him out and he fell over his lost balance.

"Now get out." I said about to close the door but he stopped me. "I don't know the way from here, you have to take me.....at least to our neighborhood?" He pleaded with his eyes and I couldn't take it anymore, he was my best friend at one point why was I ignoring him now?

"Come on." I said tightly and we walked down the street together.

As we walked on silently I tried to figure out what was happening to me, why did I black out like that- was it hearing about my parents that got me so freaked out? My parents what had happened to them? Are they really dead? There were too many questions I needed answers to so I tried to ignore it; why should I care? I have a family now that care enough to let me be and take care of me. They all had qualities from people in a family, the crazy one, the quiet ones, the most happening stars everything.

Thomas turned to me without warning and belted me right in the face! I fell back on my ass, he was pretty strong. True, I had my vampire strength but he was still bigger than me when I let my guard down. "That was for the fucking ring ass hole."

He began to walk again, but not far because he didn't know the way.

"I deserved that, I guess." That was all I said because he didn't look as though he wanted to carry on any conversation with me. Once we made it to his house he got up to the door and turned to me again with a rough glare.

"I won't tell anyone about your little secret or your little hide away, but if you try to hurt me again I won't hesitate to call the police." He walked inside and slammed the door behind him.

"Call anyone you want," I mumbled lowly to myself and the closed door, "we'll own them all anyway. No one can save you." I turned and faded into the atmosphere back to the house.

When I got inside I saw that Leo was still waiting for me- the best she could anyway it was morning after all so she fell asleep in my room with the lid down.

I pushed down on it like I'd seen Polix do- I never put the lid on it- and then shook her, she didn't move at first but then she stirred when I said her name.

She started screaming and covered her eyes on my chest. "What's the matter?!" I had to shout over her yells. "What?!"

"Close the lid!" She shouted near tears.

"How?!"

She pointed up and I saw the switch to do it and pushed it in. "There you go, it's OK, lay down." I said placing her on the bed. She rubbed her eyes and looked at me with a sneer of anger.

"Don't ever wake a vampire sleeping in the daytime!" She shouted and started punching at me it didn't hurt at first but than she landed one of her magic punches on me, "Hey, calm down. I'm sorry all right?" I said trying to talk calmly when I really wanted to bash her head in, 'where are all these aggressive feelings coming from?' I wondered. "They're coming from Polix," she answered, them doing that still kinda freaks me out cause I can't do it as easily. "you guys are up to something other wise his feelings and emotions wouldn't be flying around the house like a loon. So what is it?" She asked with anger in her eyes and they were a little red because of the sunlight.

"I don't know what you mean, maybe he drank some bad blood and got sick I had nothing to do with it." I said calmly so she wouldn't know I was lying; from that I got a hard stare but than her expression softened and she smiled jumping on me with kisses.

"This is so thrilling I've never been awake in the morning since I got turned."

"Who turned you?" I asked into her mouth.

"Sparx did, she was my friend from school in the older grades and one night she came to my house and bam."

She kept herself plastered to me and then she reached for my pants to undo them.

I raised her skirt and slid my hands thighs, she sat down on my length over my boxers and we began to have sex again for the first time since I became one of them and then I stopped. "I can't do this." I said huffing out breaths

"And why the hell not?" She almost yelled.

"Because- because I saw things that's why....it's kinda plastered to my mind." 'Literally.' I thought.

"Well?" She said, crossing her arms over her chest.

"I saw-........I saw....I saw Polix boning Taurus."

She sat there like she was registering it a moment than she looked at me with the most 'duh' expression I've ever seen. "So," she said as if I knew something "everyone knows they're going together, like Diablo and Aries, it just is."

"Oh, okay." I tried to climb back on her but she pushed me off. "You spoiled the mood

I'm going to bed like I should have been, I'll never get up tonight so save me some dinner okay?" With that she just dropped like she were never awake at all.

I sat there looking at her, I couldn't open the lid because it would hurt her so I was forced to go to sleep with her.
