*Blinks and waves vigorously* Long time huh? Thank you! All my lovely reviewers…hopefully you are still with me! I am continuing…yes I know I was away for a LONG time. But I assure you I will continue on everything.

"Maybe I need to sit down," I said talking to myself.

I had wandered aimlessly into the woods hoping I would somehow find Raziel. Or more him find me.

"You enjoy talking to yourself?" said a voice.

I glanced up to watch Kain.

"Know what, I am not even going to ask how you found me. Is Raziel alright?" I said not bothering to get up or make eye contact.

"Well, I come all this way to hear about Raziel…he is fine. He is on his way to you. Seems to be…that I found one of his weaknesses," he drawled edging closer.

His tall frame came into full view.

"Um, if that is supposed to imply that I should be that weakness…then I guess you're wrong."

He arched an eyebrow.

"Look, all I want right now is to go back to my world. Or more, how about turning me back into a human."

he laughed. "Ah yes, you are no longer a mortal now. I keep forgetting. Such power from one so young."

He was circling me now.

"What? Are you too old?" I said smiling.

"I am old. It is true. I am ancient compared to your life cycle, Tia," he said slowly.

Why must I get myself into things like this? I wondered.

He kept circling then I saw a flash of blade as it hit where my feet were a second ago. He blinked and I rose. I was much shorter than he was so I guess I wasn't very intimidating.

"You think Raziel would do your bidding by attacking me?" I said.

I stopped when I realized how dark my voice sounded.

"Vorador is responsible for this," he mused. "No matter. He will be gone in a few hours."

I didn't have time to evade the attacks he threw at me. in fact I was far too slow for the swift movements he made. He made an upper cut with the hilt of the Reaver and I was thrown back against a tree.

I made no move to get back up as I felt the sharpness of the Reaver press against my throat.

"So, your plan is to kill me right? Then why don't you go right ahead!" I hissed.

Kain drew back and as he was about to make that final plunge a blue force hit him.

Don't ask how he got here, Tia, I told myself. You're already in to much confusion.

I saw Raziel walk up offering a hand.

"He's gone?" I said.

"He's gone," he nodded.

"You're back to your old form, I see," I said nodding back.

Raziel shrugged and twisted his arms.

The wings on his back grew and his flesh reappeared. His skin remained a bluish white.

"Or not…so you learned to shirt between forms?"

"Intriguing isn't it?" he said. "So, girl, you are no longer human?"

"Yea, yea, yea," I said punching his shoulder. "I'm thirsty. You have to guide me into….feedings."

he smiled flashing his now extended fangs.

I smiled back and realized my own fangs had extended.

"I can get used to being your guide," he said softly. "Now, don't get on my nerves like you had before."

I gave a small hurt expression. Our behavior was like as if we had known one another for years and not a few weeks.

"so, what's for dinner?" I asked licking my fangs.

he raised a finger and then smiled. "Let's head for a town. There's some good maids we can dine on."

The way he had said 'we' instead of 'me' was rare. I had no idea Raziel would ever have a well…sidekick of a sort. I guess because I am a vampire now.

"We are flying," he stated and grabbed me around the waist and lifted off.

"You know in my world the law of physics and such would never allow such acts of flying like this!" I declared.

"This is Nosgoth, milady," he laughed. "We have very little laws of physics here."

This is going to be a very interesting beginning of a new life, I thought as we flew.

Whew! All done. Next chapter won't take long I promise. No, I am not going to make you wait like five months for you to read this again. I will continue don't worry. Keep reviewing though…I might end up giving it up if you guys don't review. *pouts*
