Vancha dived for her, literally he was up right one minuet and a cross the room the next, the large vampire had his arm stretched out to grab her neck. Meeker darted back behind me only just missing vancha's attack, she stumbled a second then as soon as possible she was on her feet legs wide and arms out ready for a fight.
Vancha was already up and by the time meeker notesd he had her pined up on the wall of the cave. She withered and monad from the sharp stone digging in to her right shoulder drawing blood.
"vancha" I said. If he herd he didn't move from were he was.
"vancha" I yelled this time. It was just enough to shock him because as soon as I did he dropped her, she slumped down gasping for breath. The older vampire stepped back.
"Sit down" I simply said. Even though vancha was older than me he did as I said and after a while he spocke.
"I don't bloody believe this" he grunted "of all the people"
"I think we should …….. Get rid of her" the little person stated.
"No" I stood up from were I had sat.
"Darren It would ………. be the wise thing ………….. to do" harkat said softly.
"I said no. Mr. Crepsley tort me that vampires are not blood thirsty killers and do not kill in cold blood. Steve is the one we must kill she's dun nothing to us." It was actually one of the first things he tort me and one of the hardest to get my head around.
"He's right, thee old man tort you good Darren forget nothing he said it will save your life on many occasions."vancha smiled lightly.I nodded
"If not kill…. Her than………what…" harket asked
"We will tie her up and keep her with us when were dun here we willun tie her and set her free not before" vancha stated firmly he seemed to be back to normal and was tacking charge agene 'thank god'
"You do realize that im still here don't you" meeker asked "and can I pleas have a blanket or jumper cause im cold"
"Meeker" I hushed.
"Yes"
"Were is he" I said the he meaning Steve leopard
"Oh… well actually I don't know, the last time I saw him was last week down here" she smiled sweetly not like Steve but more like well I don't know but sweetly.
"If you're lying we will-"
"I know" she sighed "I will behave. Its not like Steve likes me anyway." Meeker reached down and touched her bear skin. "Can I pleas have something to cover up with, wearing this In front of three men is a littleun nerthing."
I lathed and passed her a rackety blanket witch was sitting on the floor by my feet "here."
It was my tern for look out. Vancha was half asleep and Harket was asleep. Are guest was stretched out across the floor were my bed was supposed to be. Her hear was swept across the ground and the blanket was around her whast. I think she was sleeping im not shore she looked it, the fechers of her face were almost glowing from the dim light and she only looked better matched with her tan skin and dark hear. Sighing I looked back towards the fire, throw the flames I saw old friends, new friends, lost friends and me. I remember the first time I went to the cirque du freak, I remember how exited Annie was when I brang home the things I had brought. out of every one I know or knew Annie is the one I can remember clearly after all the years and things iv seen my sister is the one I feel with me I miss her and hope she is well.
"You know we all think of what would have happened if we didn't become vampires or any sort of creator of the night" vanch came and sat by me the wield vampire placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Do you ever wish you didn't you know be like this" I asked
"At first but not now, if any think I think im a better person because of all this I have a place if you understand." He looked hard at the fire as I was moments ago. "Which one are you thinking of"
"What" I didn't get it.
"You're thinking of someone all of us do, I think of my brother what we were like before, who you hang on to. Who keeps you going." He looked at me almost as if studying the way I was.
"My sister." Moving my arm so it was on my lap as I continued "she was only little I almost drunk and killed her, that night made me realize that I couldn't go back to being 'Darren Shan' everyone new and had to become 'Darren Shan vampire'"
"Ahh yes you were a smart one many kill before realizing they can't go back to being well being them. Now sleep Darren I'll take whotch." Vancha put an arm around me and lightly squashed then pointed to were my bed was, the one meeker was in.
"Umm vanch I a you know well meeker." I pointed to the sleeping form on the Flore and looked questioningly at the green herd vampire.
"Darren, there is a blanket by the foot of her and use the bag as a pillow yes"
"Yes" I said moving towards meeker "vanch"
"Yes"
"Thank you"
"There is know need for thanks, we merely had a conversation" he said smiling
"You sound just like Mr. Crepsley" I grinned then lay in the newly made so called bed and awaited sleep. And maybe more. I didn't have to whate long because sleep soon came and with it a dream…………….
