A/N: this chapter is from Talon's p.o.v. If you haven't read the first chapter go read that first. It tells about Kiara's background and junk like that. Thanx to those that reviewed. From those of you who wanted to hear from talon: here it is.

Disclaimer: same as last chapter

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You weren't there last night" she was pretty much stating the obvious.

"Where" I was playing along even though I knew that she knew that I knew what she meant.

"The bash," She sounded like she didn't care that I was playing dumb and was somewhat gloating.

"I had stuff to do." I really didn't, and she knew I didn't. When you're a vampire, there's nothing that can't wait till tomorrow. Really I just don't like most of the vamps in that circuit, even though a third of them are in my line. Most of them are in Kendra's, and they're not my type, except Nikolas, he's got style.

" You should have been there. It was very interesting." At this point she took out the Vida knife she had taken the previous night. I stared at her in disbelief. About the only way to get a knife from a Vida, of all witches, is to kill one.

"That's a Vida knife isn't it? Which one did you kill?" I hoped she had killed one of the lower ranking ones. If she had killed one like Dominique, or even Adianna, They would be after her for centuries.

"Talon, it was only Adianna." She was deliberately taunting me. She had killed the second strongest Vida, and she's only been a vampire for nine months. I didn't believe her. She either didn't kill her or killed a different Vida, but she doesn't even know that there is anything like lying. I made sure of that when I raised her. I acted like she was telling the truth.

"Kiara, if you killed Adianna they'll be after you forever, and believe me, that's a long time." I actually thought that would be fun, but I didn't let her know.

"Talon," she said in that tone I hate, the one that she used when she was gloating, "It would be fun." How come I don't realize it when she's in my head anymore? I should really ask her about that. She's getting better than me. I knew I was good at picking fledglings, but I didn't know I was that good. She's the first one that's actually going to be stronger than I am, and I picked her when she wasn't even old enough to speak.

"It's not fun if you lose." I really wanted to get this argument over with, but I would not let her have the last word.

"You would know because?" I highly value honesty, but what could I say to that that didn't make me look bad?

"I would know because I've lost. It's not fun then Kiara." Why does she insist on making me look bad? I'm the one who raised her. She would still be human if not for me.

"You lost, Talon. The great Talon, third fledgling of Siete has lost. To whom I wonder?" She is all too much of a thirteen year old. I wish I had changed her a little bit later.

"That, you don't need to know right now." I had actually lost a fight or two, but that was back when I had been a vampire for as long as she has. "Maybe you should go find Aubrey, I'm sure that would be fun for you."

"Yeah it would!" she takes things all to literally sometimes. "Maybe I could get another knife!"

"You're going to get yourself killed Kiara." She really would if she kept on like this. If she kept going for much longer, I would kill her.

"Talon, I have two points to make; A-I'm already dead, B- The Vida's aren't going to be after me."

"Why won't they?" If she killed a Vida they would. As I thought in the first place, I bet she didn't kill her.

"I didn't kill her." How did I know, "Honestly Talon, I thought you were supposed to be the smart one. You're the one that has 5000 years behind you. I only have 14.

"That's almost worse. Now they'll start going after you immediately as opposed to waiting a month or two." After that I left the room. As I said I was not going to let her have the last word.

I'm a "seventeen"-year-old boy trying to raise a fourteen-year-old girl sometimes I don't think it's possible.
