A/N: OK! OK! I know that I've been taking forever to update, but.*throws computer out the window* I've been having computer problems. Also I probably have some spelling errors because I lost spell check...once again. So...here it is! About time too!

I sat in the crimson chair, my legs under tucked her, and my face in the "Vampyres" book. -"Nirvelli is the keeper of the soul stone, (A/N: Yea I know very original) which is kept at the bottom of a hidden enchanted lake. Nirvelli is an ancient water nymph and is not the only keeper of the stone. The merpeople who live at the bottom have Nirvelli and the soul stone at the heart of their city, protected by their strongest warriors. No one ever makes it to the soul stone. The soul stone is said to have the power to bring life back to the lifeless and the undead. Many vampires and humans like have tried and failed. What happens to them is unknown."

I slammed the book shut and growled in frustration. I was very tempted to toss it into the fire but I had to return the book before somebody noticed it was gone. I stared hard at the cover of the book. "Trying to burn a hole in the cover?" Five, white, long, slender fingers wrapped around my left shoulder. I gasped at first then realized who it was.

"Why would it matter wouldn't you jump for joy if I did that"

"Please, that's something so small compared to the power inside you. You just refuse to embrace it." Serenity's smooth but chilling voice could make any man fall over with lust.

"Maybe that's because I don't want to be a 'child of the night'."

"No vampire is a child of the night. We were all born under the sun. We have all frolicked, and giggled under that sun. Also at one point one of the most innocent creatures this Earth has to offer! So don't you ever use that title around me again?" Her black nails dug into my shoulders hard and started to draw blood. I whimpered in pain and went to nurse her shoulder. I could tell Serenity had some issues, but refused to venture into it.

"Haven't seen you around lately, where have you been? Sucking someone dry?"

"Ha...ha..., believe it or not Lily there are vampires in this school since you were in your first year. They altered their image with magic. I've been with them for centuries."

"Let me take a guess, you meet them while slaughtering babies in a hospital nursery." I replied coldly.

Serenity narrowed her eyes, "Think what you want, but not all vampires are homicidal maniacs like how people like to believe."

"Yes, of course. You're a misunderstood child of the night. Who, by the way, kills and drinks the blood of their victims. That sounds nothing like a homicidal maniac!"

"Not very lady like Lily, I wonder what your precious James would have to say about that."

"Leave him out of this! Or I swear that your head will go into that fire" "A threat, I'm shaking. Oh, I better watch out or little Lily will rip off my head. I'm so scared." "Want to' try me?" "Please Lily, I'd love to kill you, but I can't because Cerulius says I can't! Otherwise you'd be dead." Serenity's icy eyes fixed upon me.

Serenity's eyes fell upon the book "Looking for the cure to the disease?" I gripped the book firmly. "My dear darling brother doesn't let anybody escape-" "He's your brother. That's why he has so much control over you." I felt like a moron not realizing that sooner.

"It's the sad truth. I am my brother's spy. My own flesh and blood condemned me, and then forced me to be his loyal servant."

"A servant people could say, but I'd rather say that I'm a slave for eternity. That is what he made me. His slave! He made his flesh and blood a slave to him!"

"Let me cry you a river of tears." I stood and walked away towards the staircase.

I took a quick glance to the top of the stairs and there she was standing with three other vampires. Two vampires to her left, a man and a woman, and another woman to the right. The woman on her right she knew. It was Erin O 'riley, her friend was a vampire spy. The other woman she didn't know, but she was wearing sapphire blue robes and the man was wearing emerald green. Within an instant they were gone but mentally torturing her with things she had done, and what was going to be. "James isn't here to save you this time Lily!"

**************************************************************************** ***************************************

James walked down the boy's dorm stairway into the common room. It was early, the sun was just starting to rise in the sky, and a few stars were still visible. The prank on the Slytherins, was the reason for him being awake at the time. A few drops of a certain potion Sirius made, would have them growing hair all over their bodies. Lucky for them it only lasted for about two hours.

James noticed on the coffee table by the fire the book he and I went to get that night in the library. He picked it up with one hand and took a step before he noticed something warm and sticky on it. He looked at his hand and all he saw was a deep red color. He dropped the book and stared at both his hands. He didn't want to think it was blood; actually he refused to think it was blood. He started to slowly take steps backwards towards the common room portrait, but tripped over something and landed flat on his back. He stared horrified at what he saw. James saw me lying behind the couch, blood running from the side of my open mouth and my eyes were vacant. He noticed the blood on my clothes and thought the worst. He picked up my limp body and ran toward the hospital wing.

A day later I woke up feeling like crap. My body slightly bruised and a scrape here and there, but nothing serious or so I thought. I looked to the chair next to my bedside, and a sleep deprived James had his head in his hands. His hair was messier than usual, and his glasses were on the nightstand. "James?" I said quietly, trying to find my voice. He lifted his head up. His hazel eyes were weary and his smile was weak.

"How ya feeling Lil's?"

"Half of me feels like I hit a truck. The other half feels like...well...really satisfied."

A dark look was evident in his eyes after I said that. "Lily Madame Pomfrey had to pump a pint of blood out of you stomach." I lowered my eyes. I remembered nothing of the night before.

"Lily is there something you want to tell me?"

"No, of course not! What is it that you think I should have to tell you?"

The look he gave me gave me the idea he thought otherwise.

"You're accusing me! You're accusing me of drinking blood!"

"Lily what am I supposed to think? The school nurse had to pump blood out of you're stomach and you expect me not to think you had nothing to do with it."

I couldn't stand being around James at the moment. I just wanted him to leave "Get out! I don't want you here right now!"

"Lily.,"

"Get out James!" I glared at him but he still didn't leave "GO!" I pushed him with everything I had, and James went flying across the room. He hit his head hard against the wall. I stood up from the hospital bed, and left.

A/N: Well I finally finished this chapter..now for the next one..
