Chapter seven: Transformation

A month goes by and the kiss is pretty much forgotten.

Silver continues to live with Shido trying to remember her past. She has learned a great deal about her vampire side, but she is still scared about feeding from Yayoi and will only do it if Shido is right there to make sure she does not loose control even thought that has yet to happen.

Silver has noticed that some of her skills are different then that of Shido's, but thought nothing of it since not all vampires are exactly the same.

This night though finds Silver and Shido walking and talking with each other. Of course Guni is in her usual position hiding in Shido's hair.

"Shido, do you think that I will be strong enough to help you with the next breed we fight?"

"I should think so. I have taught you a great deal and you have come a long way with it."

Silver sees something in the corner of her eye and stops. She then says, "Shido, did you see that?"

He stops and looks in the same direction and replies "See what Young One?"

"I saw someone, but they seemed to be possessed by a breed."

"We should follow them then."

Silver races off in the direction she saw the person go with Shido close behind her.

She glimpses the breed dragging someone into an ally and she rushes with the burst of wanting to save the person.

She bursts in the ally and draws her blood weapon, it is a sword that looks much like Shido's, but can turn into a whip :Like Ivy's from Soul Caliber 2 on PS2: she rushes to the breed and starts to fight it.

Shido runs in not even a minute after Silver starts to fight. He draws his sword and joins in.

The whole fight looks like an intricate dance of death which Silver and Shido are winning. It all changes though when Shido goes to impale the breed and it moves so he hits Silver instead.

Before anyone can react a bright silver light surrounds her generating from her silver choker.

She starts to transform into her battle from. She becomes taller, her hair billows out to go to her ankles, and her clothes change to a tight latex silver suit with high heeled boots with daggers as the heels. :Like Rayne's boots from Blood Rayne on PS2.: Her blood weapon also changes from blood to glittering silver.

As she stands there in her battle form she looks more like a statue of a pure silver warrior goddess then a living person.

Once the transformation is complete Silver takes one look at the breed shakes her sword to make the whip and lashes out at it. The whip hits the breed cutting it on a diagonal from shoulder to waist.

Once it falls in two meaty chunks with a sickening plop Silver sinks to her knees and starts to shake with the shock of what happened.

Shido comes to her and kneels before her. He takes her shaking form into his arms and starts to try and calm her down.

"Shhh. It's ok Young One there is nothing to worry about I think I know what happened. Just calm down and try to come back to normal."

As soon as Shido had started to hold her, she starts to sob into his chest.

"I can't Shido. This isn't easy. What's going on Shido? Why did I kill the breed like that? I'm not that ruthless. Did you see how I looked at it?"

"Everything will be ok Young One. Trust me, you can get through this. Come on. Get up, I'll take you home and tell you what I know about what happened."

Silver says nothing, but her sobs start to subside. Shido picks her up and starts to carry her back home. The whole while Silver gives little hiccup sobs into his shoulder.

Once they get home Shido lays Silver down on the couch in the office. She refuses to let go of his neck so he kneels on the floor beside her.

"Silver, you need to calm down. As soon as you calm down you can concentrate on changing back."

"What's happening Shido? This feels familiar, but I don't know. Is this part of being a vampire?"

"No Young One. I should have told you this before, but I could never find the time."

She sits up and lets go of Shido's neck so that he can sit next to her.

"What did you mean to tell me?"

"I meant to tell you that you are different from your normal everyday vampire. I mean to say that you were not human when you were turned."

"Not human? What do you mean? I don't follow you Shido."

"Let me finish Young One. I believe that you are a member of a race of...Well I'm not really sure what they are. I have only heard a few tales about them. They are humans as in the fact that they can die of old age, fatal wounds, and disease, but they can live hundreds maybe even thousands of years. They also have the power to transform themselves into incredible warriors when the need arises. That is all I have heard about them, that and they are believed to be extinct, but a few may still live."

"So I am a member of a dieing race of warriors and someone made me into a vampire? It all seems so hard to believe. I wish now more then ever that I could remember my past before the park."

"You will get your memories back. I know you will. Can you try to transform back. I don't know how long you can hold it or how much energy it uses up in the process."

"I'll try Shido." She closes her eyes to better concentrate on getting her form back.

A few minuets later Yayoi comes in and thus braking Silver's concentration.

"Hey guys how is everything tonight? Oh I didn't know you had company. Hello I'm Yayoi and you are?"

"Yayoi that is Silver over there." Shido says from where he now sits at his desk.

"It is? She looks so different."

"Yes Yayoi it's me. I...Um...Under went a transformation."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you remember when I told you that Silver was not human when she was turned?"

"Yes, do you mean to tell me that this has something to do with it?"

"It does. We were fighting a breed and when I hit her instead of it she transformed into this."

"So why isn't she back to normal yet?"

"I don't know how to change back. I think I'm going to be stuck like this for awhile."

Just then Cain appears in the room.

Yayoi pulls out her gun and aims it right at his head.

Shido moves to stand right in front of him blocking his view of Silver.

"LEAVE! NOW! CAIN!"

"Shido love I am not here to harm the child. Believe it or not I am here to help her." He looks over Shido's shoulder and looks right at Silver. "Child look at me."

She pears up at him and holds his gaze.

"Good child, now change back."

She immediately begins to change back into her original form.

Cain looks back at Shido and places his hand on his cheek. "I told you I was here to help. I hope you teach her how to use her powers quickly. I do not want to have to come back here every time she gets into a fight and be teased by what I can no longer posses." He kisses Shido softly on the lips before vanishing.

Guni who up until then has been shocked into silence finally recovers and says, "What the fuck was that all about?"

Shido shakes his head to clear it and replies, "I don't know Guni, but I don't think it was a sign of good things to come."

Silver stands up, walks over to Shido, and puts her arm around his waist and rests her head on his arm in a sign of comfort before saying, "Shido, do you think he meant what he said?"

"With Cain one can never be sure."
