AN: Chapter 4 finally. Any ideas for a title, let me know!
************ Chapter IV: In Which Aubrey Gives Alanna a Warning
Alanna laid in bed that night, completely restless. This Aaron fellow seemed like the answer to her prayers. But like everything else, she suspected a double-edged sword. Something seemed out of place, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Unable to concentrate, she slipped into her bathing suit and grabbed a towel and a book. Closing her eyes she concentrated. Her surroundings became warped and in moments she was no longer in her room but on a sandy beach. Smiling to herself, she laid out her towel and relaxed, getting into her book.
Someone came up behind her and towered over her. "Aubrey, you're in my light."
"Put the book down and listen."
Angry, Alanna marked her page and glared up at the vampire. "What? How did you even find me here? I wish you would just."
"SHUT UP!" Aubrey was very frustrated with the little psychic. "I don't have a lot of time. Listen to me very carefully. Someone's after you. I don't know who exactly and I don't know why, but you're on some head hancho's radar and you could screw everyone if you're not careful."
Alanna was confused. What was he talking about and better still, why was he warning her? "Aubrey, What are you."
"I don't have time to explain. Just watch yourself. There's something up." He tilted his head as if listening to someone. "Shit. They're coming!" Grabbing her arm her hopped back reality landing roughly on the floor of her room.
"What the hell, Aubrey?!" She was pissed. In their haste she forgot her book and she would have trouble getting back into the dimension.
Aubrey shushed her. "Don't hop if you don't have to. They pick up your energy that way. They have someone watching you, but I'm not sure who."
"Who is 'they'? What is going on?"
"Just stay in this reality. Keep a low profile till I figure out what's going on." Aubrey looked around. "I have to go."
Alanna gripped his shirt. "Wait. Why? Why are you telling me all this."
Aubrey looked at her and his eyes softened. "I'm sorry for what I did. Just trust me on this." With those last words he was gone.
Alanna sat there on her floor stunned. Aubrey, helping her? This was some new and foreign idea that made absolutely no sense. Shaking her head she changed and crawled into bed. Closing her eyes, she saw an image of Aubrey. covered in blood.
