No reviews, I'm sad. Here's the not so much awaited chapter 5. The song is 'Bullet Proof' by the Goo Goo Dolls.

She wants to shake this scene
Yeah she wants to shake with me
She's not looking for the holes in all the lies

"I just don't understand it," said Rena.

"What?" Ramon asked.

"How do they come up with the names for the Crayola crayons? I mean, they call it Purple Mountains Majesty, when I would just call it purple-ish. You know?"

"That was one of the most random things I've ever heard." He unlocked the front door and they walked in. Tiegra was just coming out of the boys' room. She glared at the couple and said nothing.

After she went into the girls' room, Rena said, "That seems to be happening a lot today."

"What?"

"People storming off, or around." She shrugged. "I don't know. Do you think we're missing something?"

"Probably not, everyone in this house is weird." He paused, "Except you, hon."

"Yeah, sure."

"Hey, Rena," Tiegra called from the girl's room, "Will you come in here?"

"I'll be right there." She looked up at Ramon and shrugged, "Wonder what she wants?"

"Go and see, I've had enough of you today!" He smiled.

"Hey!" She hit him on the arm. He hit back. "Ow, I've got to go in there."

"Yeah, yeah, see you later."

"I should hope so." She turned toward the room and walked in. Tiegra was sitting on her bed; her head was in her hands. "Are you okay?"

Tiegra looked up, there were streaks down her cheeks. "Do I look okay, Rena?"

"No."

"You're observant."

"Are you just going to snip at me the entire time I'm here? You called me in here. For what, to be your punching bag?" She crossed her arms.

"I'm sorry. There's no easy way to say this, so I'm just going to. I want you to stay away from Ramon."

Rena laughed, "What?"

"You heard me, I want you to stay away from Ramon."

"You're joking." Tiegra's face was utterly serious. Rena sobered, "Why?"

"He's dangerous."

"Dangerous? I've known him for more than a month and the meanest thing he's done is eat a burger. If he really was dangerous I'm sure I could have figured it out by now."

"No, you couldn't have, you're in love with him."

"No, I'm not."

Ramon walked into his room. He looked at the table and noticed that the papers were scattered everywhere. Piling them back into order, he picked up a sheet from the floor:

Destroy After Reading!

Find out all that you can about the Daybreakers. Report back weekly. Cover all of your tracks. If you are discovered report directly to your trainer. Give no information under any circumstances.

Burn this document!

"Shit!" Ramon whirled around, tearing the paper in half as he did, "Shit! Shit! Shit!"

Timon almost ran into him as he entered the room, "What's up, man?"

Ramon took a deep breath, "Nothing," he said, "I just remembered something I was supposed to do."

"Must have been something important."

"Yeah, it was." He walked out of the room.

"I'm going to go over there again," said Teresa.

"You've been there four times in the past hour, Ana wasn't there ten minutes ago; she won't be there now." Ben replied.

"I have to check. What if she's…what if those people didn't take her to the hospital? She might be dead."

Ben put his head in his hand; his elbow was resting on the couch. "If she is there's nothing we can do. Just forget about it."

"Ben! She's our friend!"

"And do you think that thing that almost killed her cares? What if there's another one out there?"

"It's been over a day, if something like it was waiting, it probably left."

"I don't want you to go." He stood up, "It's not safe."

Teresa rolled her eyes, "Well, duh, this is LA, of course it isn't safe." She slipped on her shoes and turned to the door. "I'm going. I'll be back later."

Ben didn't even register what she said until after the door slammed.

Teresa trailed a hand on the graffiti stained wall as she walked to the staircase. When she opened the door to the stairwell, the smell of blood overwhelmed her. She saw a pale hand on the landing between floors.

Teresa froze.

Something pushed her from behind; as she stumbled she heard the door click shut. "Where's Hector?" The vampire asked. She was almost as pale as the disembodied hand on the landing, and her canine teeth were an inch long. Teresa stopped breathing. "Where's Hector?"

"Wh-…Who's Hector?"

The vampire slapped her, "You know damn well, bitch. Tell me where he is!" If Teresa hadn't known that vampires were soulless, emotionless creatures, she would have said that the vampire was worried.

"I…I really don't know who you're talking about. What does he look like?"

"Don't be smart, he's the male version of me. Hector Vega."

"Hector!" said Teresa, recognizing the name. "I haven't seen him since school on Friday." Hector couldn't be a vampire. Teresa used to have a crush on him when they were in fifth grade. He sometimes let her copy his Geometry homework. Teresa whispered it, but the vampire heard, "He can't be a vampire."

"He is, now where is he?"

"I told you, I haven't seen him since Friday!" The smell was only getting worse as the heat increased in the stairwell. Teresa gagged.

"I'm going to kill you anyway, so you might as well tell me. I just want to find my brother."

"You're supposed to tell me you'll let me go if I tell you, that's how it works. Haven't you watched any type of interrogation?"

"It's against the rules," the girl muttered. "I would if I could, but I can't so I won't. Okay?"

"Did that hand refuse to talk too?"

"I didn't kill that person. I only got here a second before you." The vampire was right in front of the door; the stairs were right behind Teresa. If she tried, she might be able to run, but she didn't know if vampires had super speed. The door slammed into the vampire, and the vampire stumbled into Teresa, acting on instinct, she rolled her shoulder so the vampire fell down the stairs.

The vampire didn't fall far.

Ben was standing in the door. "Umph," he said. "Ugh, what's that smell?" Teresa pushed him into the hall and slammed the door to the stairwell.

"Get in the apartment," she ordered. "Now."

He tried to open the door. It was locked.

The vampire was opening the door. "We need to get out of here." There was a window at the end of the hall. They both sprinted for it. The rusty fire escape outside didn't look stable enough to hold Teresa's weight, let alone both of theirs. "It's both of us or neither, sis."

Teresa opened the window and climbed on. She shimmied down as fast as she could. Ben stepped on it right after her. Rust flakes fell on her face. Teresa jumped the last six feet, so did Ben.

They took off running.

Ramon sat outside the office with his head in his hands. If anyone would listen to him, it was Kate Braxton. They knew each other well enough. She had no reason to dislike him.

"Agent Braxton will see you now." A woman in a business suit said. Ramon nodded and walked in.

"Ramon," Kate said, smiling. "What do you need?" She gestured to a seat.

"I've been framed." He said simply.

"Oh, really? Why?"

"I don't know. To make look guilty of something I didn't do?"

"I mean, what were you framed for?"

"Someone planted a sheet of paper in my room, under my things, that made it seem like I was reporting to the Night World."

"A spy?"

"Yes, I suppose."

"So, why did you come to me? This is something Thierry should handle."

"Well," he stalled, "You were the first person I thought of. So, if any of my housemate call, I want you to know that it was all a big mistake."

Kate nodded. "Of course, Ramon. You do know that this means there will be an investigation. We'll find out who framed you," she said, thinking, 'If you were framed.'

"Thank you, Agent Braxton."

"Is that all you needed to see me about." Ramon nodded, "Okay, you may go." He stood up and left the room. Kate picked up the phone. "Did he sound like he was telling the truth?"

"He was lying," said Tiegra.

You're a bullet through my soul
But I'll never let you know
I won't let you fall until you let it go
