Okay, if this seems like it was written in ten minutes, it's because it was. I want to get a little bit of adding plot out of the way fast, because I know how this will all work (more or less) now. So read fast, then review fast? Deal? Deal.

Of the Vampires chapter 4
Heero gasped deeply as he pushed the dirt away from the grave he had dug. Ignoring the looks of the frightened grave digger, he lifted himself out and glanced around carefully. Besides the quivering man, the graveyard was empty.
He brushed the dirt from his shirt as he jogged off, intent on making his way back home before sunrise. Setting a fast, constant pace he felt he was making good time.
His guard was down when the attack came. Several shadowy forms sprang up around him, light glinting of the barrels of riffles in the moonlight.
Heero glared around him, crouching into the fighting stance Wufei, the vampire he had created, had taught. One of the men chuckled loudly, and, before he could spring, something knocked hard into the back of his head.
The pounding became a steady beating and he dropped slowly to his knees. "Wufei..."
The world went black.
Wufei was panicking, pacing quickly with an agitated gleam in his eyes. "Where is he?" he asked once again. "Where on earth could he have gone! How dare he do this!"
"How long has he been gone?" Quatre asked, trying to be remotely reasonable.
"I don't know!" Wufei snapped angrily. "I tend to lose track of time once in a while! It happens after several centuries!"
"Okay... Calm down," Duo said quickly, stepping between the peacemaker blonde and enraged Asian. "I'm sure he'll come home soon enough. We'll just have to hang out until he does, that's all."
There was a loud thump on the door and the three pulled it open. Wufei grabbed the letter pinned to the outside, holding it close to his face to make out the words. "Heero," he muttered, sounding more sad than angry. "Why?"
Duo glanced over the other boy's shoulder, squinting to make out the words. "He's been taken captive?" he asked nervously. "That's it, right?"
Wufei backhanded him angrily. "That's it?" he bellowed. "That's ^it^? How would you feel if Quatre was taken captive?"
Duo winced as if visibly injured, stepping back as Wufei yanked open a drawer, lifting a large sword to the light.
The black haired boy laughed quietly, and Quatre, feeling intimidated, asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to get him back," Wufei said frankly. "Right now."
"Hang on," Duo pleaded. "We should wait until evening. That way we have more traveling time."
The glance Wufei shot him was laced with disdain. "The sooner the better," he replied icily. "And I will be traveling alone, thank you. I don't need another idiot and a fledgling vampire to join me like some... game."
The two stood, shocked, as the Asian boy raced off, alone, into the night.
Duo sighed, walking to the drawer and picking up a pistol quietly, flicking the safety off. "Come on, Quatre," he sighed angrily at the small boy. "Grab a weapon."
"He said he was going alone," Quatre corrected quietly.
"Which is exactly why we're going with him," Duo smirked. "We'll head out tomorrow, I know some short cuts that might save us a bit of time."
Quatre gaped at his creator. "You knew where they were keeping Heero all along, but you didn't tell Wufei?"
"Can't tell people like that anything when they're mad," Duo said. "Remember that, Quatre. Now let's get some sleep."
