Hey, its raining....kick ass. Ahem, this has foul language. Not a lot.
The characters that I didn't create belong to Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, my inspiration.
Enjoy!
*************************
This voice was rather unfamiliar to me, but it seemed to be rather recognizable to Kairbre, for he rolled his eyes. Particularly, I wasn't all for being saved by him, even though he killed his own kind, so I was not extremely amused when another vampire claimed blood in my predicament.
"Oh really Maverick? Incase you have forgotten, you cannot kill me." All sorts of words flew into my mind as I heard who had claimed blood on me. Who was Maverick? Certainly I would have known a Maverick....Kairbre did not seem to enjoy the sudden presence of this vampire, which only led me to wonder...
"Don't touch that!" I screamed as I felt someone twist the dagger in my side, causing it to bleed my Triste-like blood onto Kairbre's arms, his and my own attire, and the hands of the one who moved it. A bright light flashed infront of my eyes as the pain intensified and decreased seemingly at the same time.
"You should get the boy back to Madrina before the kid bleeds to death," I heard this Maverick leech say as he patted my head. "At least he isn't crying like he used to aye?" I could feel Kairbre fuming underneath me, and for once I hoped that he would just keep calm and not hurt this fellow vampire of his.
My side was beginning to grow numb, after all.
"No, Maverick, he is not an infant," the assassin snapped as he took a quick glance down at me. "You always seemed to be the louder of the twins, should have known once that bastard...."
"Kairbre." Oh come ON! How many vampires have to make an entrance here while I am bleeding to death?
"I have no time for you at the moment Rayne, I have to get Linaein to Madrina." And with that I suddenly felt as if my breath was stolen from my lungs and my skin was on fire. I screamed into the sudden darkness, but there was no sound.
Then in mid-scream, the light appeared, a strong scent of incense hit me, and the sound of my scream hit the air, causing even myself to jump. I was no longer in Las Noches with the vampires in which claimed blood on me nor with my hunting partner.
My whole body ached, the light too bright for eyes such as mine who had lived in darkness for quite awhile. I did not know where I was, but the name Madrina hit me with such emotions that I could barely breath. I remembered her from the story that Adianna always told me...
Or was it a fairy tale? I recollected nothing of what Lucia was talking of in the tale that I had grown to hate and love at once. All that I had was that story, not the people who were supposed to love me that lived inside it.
"Madrina, I would just love to craddle this child in my arms forever, but frankly, his aura is highly uninviting," I heard Kairbre mutter as he made his way around the house. With my eyes closed, I could not see where he was taking me, but the auras that crept across my skin told me who was in the room. There was a somewhat strong vampire, not so strong as Risika but much stronger than the vampire that held me, and a witch so strong that their aura seemed to drown out my own.
"Set him on the couch Kairbre and go and clean yourself up. And dont get any funny ideas about a snack there, his blood is still somewhat poisonous." The couch was comfortable and seemed almost like silk against my skin, or at least it did until the dagger touched it.
Insert scream here.
"Goddess, you would think that Risika would be decent enough to...." The woman's smooth words caught themselves midway as she turned off the lights. "Open your eyes Linaein, I did not know you were to get yourself in such trouble your first visit into New Mayhem."
After a few minutes, the other vampire that I had sensed spoke. "Why isn't he talking?" Ah, a female vampire. Should have known. Her tone is just OOZING with intelligence.
"I believe he is in too much shock Rabe," Madrina responded as I felt her powers course over my body. A shiver shot down her spine, causing her to shiver. "Lost a bit of blood there Linaein..."
"I could give him some of mine..." I swear..vampires just love to pop out of nowhere don't they? "It might kill him though, but I think the world will be better without him."
"Fuck off Maverick," I snapped, voice clear and clearly annoyed. Oops, I was never too good with controlling my anger. My thoughts were cut short as I felt the dagger being pulled, and twisted, from my body. Eyes wide, I turned my head to come face to face with the vampire named Maverick.
"Have a little boo boo there Linaein?" He taunted me as he continued to pull the weapon from my side. "You better learn how to hold your tongue Triste, or else this dagger might not be in your side, but your heart." With a final tug, the weapon was free from me, my blood dripping from it.
"You are just too cocky Mave, I don't see how I've stayed with you for so long," the female vampire muttered as I heard her come closer to me. "Ah, he's quite the looker. Might not look like his parents, but he sure has Nada's temper.."
"If you would please excuse me you two, I have some healing to do." The two vampires moved aside together as Madrina knelt down next to me. "Maverick, you pulled it too soon. Now he's lost more blood...I don't know if he will make it."
"Just heal him and if not, to the hospital we will go," the returning assassin suggested while he made his way back into the room, pulling on a black trench coat as he did. "I'm the only one that exists in the human world, so hurry up so I can see if I need to brush my teeth."
A warm sensation hit me where the wound was, causing me to gasp as my eyes fluttered slightly. It was similar to Loreena's healing, but this held so much power...."Hey, I think he likes it." For some reason, I really didnt like Maverick. Perhaps it was natural. Sure, I really was not comfortable with having three vampires around me, but at least Kairbre and the other did not keep talking when it was not nessessary.
"Alright, the wound is healed, but I think he'll need some blood...."
"Damn it Madrina....he's a TRISTE. I doubt human blood will suffice," the vampiress snapped as I heard her come towards me. "It will be just better to change him than to risk him dying slowly."
"I will NOT let your damned blood touch my lips," I yelled, forcing myself to sit up slightly. "I'd rather die a thousand deaths than to let Jager see that I became the very thing I hated. I will NOT let him have the satisfactory of seeing me be like my father!" Anger poured through me, although the numbing sensation of sleep was slowly taunting me into its arms.
Taking a deep breath, my eyes began to droop. "I have to save my mother and sister from that bastard's immortality if it is the last thing I do."
"Having a dagger lodged into your side by Risika might be the last thing that you will do unless we can get you something...."
"There's Triste blood at Las Noches..." The vampiress thought aloud. "I used to stock it, incase all of you forgotten."
"We need SingleEarth." Kairbre's sudden comment rocked all but I, who knew well what SingleEarth was and realized that Caryn would not be happy with me being brought in by vampires but...
"Then take me, cause frankly, I'm..." My lids began to descend.."Very..."
"Rabe take him, you are the only one vampire that is not restricted," Madrina's voice was the last thing I heard before my lids covered my eyes and I fell deep into the darkness.

Oh no, a cliffy. I'm sorry this sucked.
