Hi peoples, did you all have a merry Christmas? I did, I got a CD burner.
Which means all my computer time goes to burning CDs. But I found time to
type up the next chapter, it's short, but will do for now. Enjoy!
In the city of New York, a cry of frustration broke the town's silence. Krista frantically tossed clothes out of her closet as she searched for the right outfit. "NO! NO! NO! NO!" She screamed holding a green dress up to her. "Too fancy!" She shouted and launched it over to her reject pile. "Gotta find an outfit that says I'm cute, but not cheap. I'm a tease, but not easy." Krista sighed and flopped herself onto her bed. "I got 15 minutes before I have to meet Quatre for dinner! So what the hell am I going to wear?!" She rolled onto her side and hugged her pillow, "Why am I so nervous? I'm just having dinner with Quatre."
1.1 "Because he's not the one you love"
"Damn conscious! Why couldn't it been destroyed when I was made a vamp!" Krista argued with herself as she yanked her hair.
At the store, Quatre paced nervously back and forth. He wore a brown suit with a white-collar shirt and a red tie. "Okay, just breathe, smile, and be yourself. Though I never really been on a date date. But this is not really a date, just dinner with Krista. Yeah that's all, dinner!" Quatre started to bite his fingernails. "Oh my God! Where is she? She's late! She totally forgot, just like Mina! No wait, I came here early! That's right, I'm early, she's fine." He pulled a cloth from his back pocket and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Krista glanced at the clock, and smiled. "Made it, with 5 minutes to spare!" She walked over by the mirror and admired herself. A black skirt draped over her knees, and a black sweater covered her white top. "Damn I'm hot!" She commented to herself as she heads out the door.

They walked the streets hand and hand and made their way to the restaurant. They were seated outside and given their menus. Krista giggled from all the pampering she was getting and hugged Quatre, making him blush. "Wow, this sure is an expensive place." Krista muttered observing the menu. "Don't worry about it, order anything you want. It's on me." Quatre smiled and placed his hand on hers. Krista felt a little guilty, she didn't like people spending too much on her. But then, Quatre wasn't going to let her help pay. So she decided to order the least expensive item on the list; which was the salad.
Not too far away, Mina stood on a rooftop. She drew her sword out, and held it in front of her. Mina closed her eyes and began to practice. She struck the air, flipped backwards, and leaped high into the night. Mina stopped and her eyes shot wide open; someone was behind her. She took her sword and swung it around at her visitor, stopping it an inch from his neck. Heero just grinned, flashing his fangs at her. Mina growled in irritation as she withdrew her blade. Heero watched as she dug into her pocket and tossed a dagger at him. "Here, I believe this is yours." She mumbled. Heero caught the knife and began to twirl it in his hand. "So what's with the fucking heroics? Trying to make up for all your bad deeds?!" Mina sneered. Heero just ignored her and continued to play with the dagger. Mina slapped it out of his hand and grabbed his green tanktop. "Temper, temper." He said grasping her hands and forcing them backwards, making her cry out in pain. "You bastard, I'll kill you!" Mina yells. Heero leaned in closer to her, "You say you're going to kill me, and you had many opportunities to do so. But you haven't, now why is that, Mina?" His words struck her like a thousand knives, each one piercing into her heart slowly and painfully. Her mouth opened to respond, but nothing came out. She couldn't answer him, because it was all true. No matter how much she hated him, she couldn't kill him. He had murdered her family, destroyed her life, and caused her so much pain. But somewhere deep inside her cold self, she loved him, and she hated herself for it. Heero started to move in closer to her face. "Don't you even dare come near.mmff!" Her words were cut off when Heero's lips met hers. Mina tried to pull away, but found herself giving in. Letting her body take control, letting all her senses disappeared.
Back at the restaurant, the food had finally arrived. "About time, I'm starved!" Krista cheers. "Well maybe you should have ordered more then a salad." Quatre teased, making Krista's face turn red. On the other side of the room, a waitress seats a young man down. She offers him a menu, but he shoos her away. His jaded eye glares over at the two eating; clenching his fist each time Quatre touched her. The waitress returned asking what he would like to eat. He gazed at the clueless girl and snatched her hand, exposing his sharp teeth. A scream tore through the restaurant, making everyone jump from their seats. Krista's heart froze when she saw Trowa throw the waitress body to the ground. People started to panic and run, screaming and pushing each other down as they tried to escape. Through all the commotion, Trowa stared directly at Krista. His eyes burned deeply into her soul, as he fed upon her fear. Motionless, she watched as he approached her. "Long time no see, Detective." He lifted his hand to stroke her face, but was quickly smacked away. Quatre stood in front of Krista furious, "Don't you dare lay a hand on her!" Trowa glared down at him and laughs. "That's funny because I've already have." Quatre felt the anger inside him rise, and without thinking he flung his fist at Trowa. In an instant, the vampire snatched Quatre's throat and lifted him high above the floor. "QUATRE!" Krista screeched as Trowa tightened his grip. "Let him go!" She cried pulling at his shirt. Trowa ignored her pleas and continued to choke him. "Did you really think you could stop me? A pathetic mortal like you, with no power?" Trowa taunted and hurled Quatre across the room, making him slammed against the table. He then turned back towards Krista and throws her over his shoulder. She kicked and screamed as he jumped onto a building, and leaped from rooftop to rooftop. Quatre stumbled from the wreckage, holding his side. "Krista, I got to." But before he could finish, he collapsed to his knees. Sirens were heard from the distant, and the cries of people still echoed through the streets. Quatre dragged himself from the crowd into an alleyway, still gasping for air. "Duo, Mina, someone please.help." Those were his last words he spoke before passing out.
Okay, next chapter may take a while, depending on my mood! Will Krista be saved? Will anyone hear Quatre's cries? Will Mina stop sucking face with Heero to realize her friend's in trouble? And what does The Excellency have in store for our crew? All this in the next chapter to come! TTFN
