Yes I know she's kinda pathetic, but hey her world has been shattered here! I know technially she shouldn't be resistant to water but I figure the fact that she already had water powers can help with that, though I don't think she could hold out for long if she was in it for too long... I should probably do some rewriting here... ah well.

Chapter3:

After a while she dried her tears on the back of her hand and looked out at the rain outside. Bloody hell how long would this blasted storm last?! It was likely a hurricane from the way the wind was blowing so voilently.

She sighed and took out a dagger, slicing her left palm as was called for when in mourning. She then reached into her pack to get some rations and a first aid kit out. After nibbling on a protein bar she felt better, but still felt a kind of emptiness inside. She assumed it was from the loss of her mate... She was half right.

The larger figure turned to his traveling companion, smirking. His white fangs flashed in the darkness. They both observed her now out of curiousity and watched her pull out a small compact from her pack with a bandaged hand stained with fresh blood. Inside was a mirrior she was using to look at herself. "Now lets have a look at this bite shall we?" they heard her murmer as she pulled her hair to the side. They saw the busy look on her face disolve into a frown as she looked at a mark on the left side of her neck, the side faced away from them.

Though they couldn't see it they could both guess what had bitten her. "What in the world..?" they heard her inquire. "Where am I Transelvania!? It looks like I've been bitten by a..." she dropped the mirror, covering her mouth with both hands. Apparently the first ones to find her when she crash landed wern't those humans.. it was a Vampire.

Slowly she took her hand away from her lips, mouth agape. She worked with a Vampire. He was, in fact, her surroget brother! Why hadn't she recodnized it before? After all she'd donated her own blood to him so she knew what a vampire's bite felt like.

The stasis made her seriously disoriented, she reminded herself and sighed. Now that her head was clearer she could remember the emotions she had picked up from the creature. Hunger, bliss, shock, fear, anger, vengence, in that order. Obviously he hadn't realized until it was too late that her blood would have been poisonous to him. Perhaps that was what they'd ment by fledgling... They'd seen the marks on her neck and thought maybe she was a fledgling Vampire? Thinking about that made her uneasy.

Not wanting to think any more on it she picked a spot on the ground to lay down and closed her eyes, trying to get some sleep. She honestly didn't think she'd be able to, but somehow managed, hoping that those blasted humans hadn't been able to find a place to hide from the storm then berating herself for hoping it.

She awoke during the eye of the storm, not just because it was quiet, but because she felt like she wasn't alone. "Mph.." she muttered and lifted her head, eyes opening tiredly. Suppressing her yawn she looked up and was instantly wide awake. Before her stood two creatures, one with greenish brown skin that sort of reminded her of polished wood and very long white hair. The other had blue skin and looked seriously emaciated. Immediately her inner voice mentally kicked her in the haunches and shouted at her that he was a Wraith. She replied to it with a mental 'oh... shit..'

She exhaled, trembling. Instantly she could tell that these creatures were far older than her. She could also tell that the Wraith was once vampiric and the other still was. She backed up, the raging storm keeping her from exiting the cavern as the eye began to pass.

"Who... are you?" she asked them, assuming they could speak english.

"I am Kain.." the green one replied. "This is Raziel.."

"Kain.. Raziel.." she echoed. "Somthing tells me I'm in deep crap.."

"Perhaps.." Kain purred, baring his fangs.

Her new instingt kicking in she bared her own and hissed at him, letting out a gasp of surprise soon after and holding her hand over her mouth. A satisfied smirk on his face, Kain strode to her and yanked her hand away from her mouth, lifting her upper lip to have a good look at her newly formed fangs. Her canine's had become sharp, but not much else was diffrent about them. She must have been sired very recently and was still undergoing the changes.

"Where is your sire fledgling?"

She looked at him dumbly, mentally berating herself for being as frightened as a young child infront of this creature inestead of the trained warrior she truely was. Sighing Kain touched the marks on her neck where she was bitten. She could already feel the bruised wounds repairing themselves.

"You are a Vampire.." the Wraith told her. "A very young one at that.. newborn."

She shook her head, backing up from them towards the storm outside. Kain's hand flew out to pull her back and against him. A wave of fear washed over her. She could already tell that he was far stronger then her.

"Now now.." the older Vampire scolded. " Wouldn't want the rain to burn you now would we? Though I see it already has... You must have been caught in it on the way here."

"Y..yes.." she breathed. "I was, but I got burned in the river... not by the rain."

Now it was their turn to look confused.

"After I was... attacked.." she couldn't bear to use the word 'sired' "I... woke up to a group of armored humans.. They asked me 'water or fire' and... then threw me in the river when I answered."

Kain rubbed his chin, thoughtfull.

"I guess they didn't know I control water um... but it did hurt for a while... I guess... I mean I duno why.. I manipulate water all the time.. I guess they thought I was human or whatever but I've never been human..."

"Apparently the powers you had before you were sired saved you..." Raziel looked sad as he said that, which surprised her since she didn't know Wraith's had feelings.

She looked at him curiousy, cocking her head to the side, when she was rather rudely jolted from her thoughts by Kain's three fingered hand cuffing the back of her head. She looked at him. It hadn't hurt, but it had surprised her.

"It's impolite to stare." he told her simply. "Now... your sire... where is he? ..Or she as the case may be.."

"He's... dead... He died trying to feed on me... I guess he got pissed when he found out my blood was toxic to him and... turned me into... into.."

She knew it was true so what was the point in denying it? She fell to her knees, hands covering her face. To her shock Kain knelt and wrapped an arm around her. "Despite your resistance to water you will die without guidence..." she didn'dt respond to him. "It is diffacult at first, but you must learn to feed on blood, or you will either die or go mad with blood lust until your thirst is quenched." She shook her head, sobbing. "Shhh... child.. Since your sire is gone I will teach you... I claim you as my fledgling.."

"What is your game Kain?" Raziel demanded. "I've never known you to take in orphaned fledglings before.."

"Yes but this fledge is most unusual... Her resistance to water is proof of that... With the proper training she could grow into a powerful vampire.."

"I don't want to BE a vampire!" she shouted at them, standing up, eyes blazing. "I'm not going to feed, I'm going to resist it until I turn back! I'm a Unicorn we can't be turned into so dark a creature without a way to turn back."

"You are arrogent then fledgling!" Kain snapped at her harshly, his husky voice making her flinch. "What has been done can never be reversed, not even for a creature such as you!"

"You don't know that!" she snapped at him.

Kain's temper flared and she could feel it. His glare burned holes through her and he approched until she was backed up against the wall. The tree outside that crashed to the earth didn't phaze her as there was a far more deadly storm brewing in the patriarch Vampires eyes.

"Resist as long as you wish child!" he growled. "Eventually the hunger will force you to feed.. Mark my words." She shut her eyes, expecting his claws to tear into her any moment, but they did not.

Kain pulled the trembling fledgling against him. For a moment he felt her whole body tense then as he stroked her hair she relaxed a little too quickly and he had to hold her up to keep her from falling. He'd never encountered a Unicorn before, but knew also that there was no cure for Vampirism in any creature.

"Where am I..." She finally demanded, pounding his chest with her fist. "What is this place, this world I've landed in?!"

"You are in Nosgoth." He told her. "Didn't you know?"

"I'm not from this world... or this planet even.."

Kain tilted his head. Perhaps in her world a Unicorn could be cured with time. He didn't know what Vampires were like in her world, but the Vampire that sired her was of Nosgoth. He let her vent her tears on him for a little while, before tilting her head up to look at him.

"You have us at a disadvantage little fledgling." He told her. "We have told you our names, now what is yours?"

She paused for a long time, looking sheepish before answering. "Northstar.."

"Come Northstar..."

He put an arm around her shoulders and led her back to where he and Raziel had made camp. She sat down by the fire as Raziel and Kain sat on either side. Occasionally Raziel would cast the older vampire a glare or sickened glance, but he didn't respond to it. Come the next evening Kain would teach her to hunt. He could tell teaching her would be a chore already because he knew she would most likely resist the urge to feed like crazy.

Kain poked the fire with a stick and she watched him for a moment before her gaze drifted over to Raziel. His eyes were pure white, no irises, no nothing, just white and they glowed erily in the dark. She looked into those eyes. Incomplete or not they were still windows to the soul and as she looked into it she had to turn her head away from the pain she felt there.

His heart was in a great ammount of pain. Pain that would have had her on her deathbed with despair had she been through it herself. He turned to her sharply as if to demand what she thought she was looking at. Her cheeks just flushed sheepishly and she turned her attention to the fire.

Her eyes drifted to her hands, particularly her nails. She found, with a shudder, that they could be come claws which she could flex in and out at will. She had, indeed, become a predator. Sighing, she looked for a place to lay down. She was tired, wet, dirty and had so many emotions going through her at once there was only one term to describe it... buggered up.

Kain, seeming to read her mind, started to take her to lay down but Raziel beat him to it. Glaring at his former master he wordlessly led Northstar to the other side of the fire where she could sleep then he sat back down to glare at Kain. The older vampire's face turned into a smirk and Northstar felt it wise not to get between the two, verbally or otherwise.

"Ever the dramatic Raziel?"

"I'm rather not in the mood for you Kain.."

"For all you think you know... You are still a child Raziel."

"You are persistant arn't you?"

Kain smirked at the wraith then found a spot to rest. The storm would not be over till morning and they dare not go out at the moment. Both were weary and tired from endless days and nights of unrested traveling. They both needed to rest as did the reluctant fledgling.
