Title - Till the Shadows of Night Come

Chapter 4 – The Vengence Plan (Part I)

Opening - They were of a race that no one knew of, they were of The Salubri clan. A small dwindling clan that does what is necessary to keep from being killed off. He was of a group that had several types of blood in them, but their hatred for the ones that created them leads them to be hunters. So as our story starts, the night is young the sun is just setting, so the creatures of the night are just awakening just like their hunters.

Serena sat on the roof top running her fingers through her blonde tresses. Glancing over she saw Rei looking annoyed as Mina continuously ran her mouth about her new beau. She stood and jumped from the roof before they noticed. Walking along the street she sighed, and looked at the mortals, and envied them. She wanted to be normal, she wanted to live, without having to feed on the living…she wanted…she sighed and looked longingly at the couple hugging looking in the window of a jewelry store…love.

She had only been a child when her mother and sister had been taken from her, and now here she was centuries old and she only had her two best friends, who had both lost their parents a hundred years previously, while they fought a clan of hunters. She wanted to be human, but what she wanted more was revenge. It boiled her blood just thinking about it, she glared at the passers-by, searching for the right one, she smiled as she saw a tall man with short blonde hair, and cool blue eyes. She tucked her hands into her pockets and approached him; she tapped his shoulder and gave him a small smile.

"Hello," he said looking over Serena, he arched both his eyebrows and gave her a charming smile "how are you this evening?" 'What a charming looking female.' He thought to himself.

"I am fine, I was wondering though sir, if you might care to help accompany a very lost woman to her final location?" Serena asked give him a small, shy, "come and get me" smile.

"Well milady I would be honored. Where are you headed? And do you mind if I ask you your name?" He asked offering her his arm.

She took his preferred arm and gave him a dazzling smile while she quickly thought of a close by location. "My name is Serena, and I'm headed for a restaurant, its name is something like Francisco…Fran…Frank…"

"Franchisco's?" He offered.

"Yes that is it!" She said excitedly.

"So Serena is your name? My name is Jade, an odd name for a man yes, but what can I say?" He gave her a laughing smile "So who are you meeting there?"

"A couple girlfriends of mine. We were to meet there after they got out of work…"

"Oh? Where do you work?"

"At home, I'm a novelist. I write fantasy novels." Serena said proudly "And as for my friends, the one is an interior decorator for celebrities, and the other is a fashion designer."

He looked at her impressed "You all have rather good jobs; I'm only a computer technician."

"Hey computer technicians have saved my ass on more then one occasion when my interior decorator friend thought she could work a computer, like a pro. Let's just say my system crashed and she had to go through computer training courses."

He rolled his head back and let out a laugh. "Yes, its people like that that makes business good."

She laughed a bit and smirked noticing they were nearing Franchisco's. "Oh! I see the sign, thank you Jade…" she said as they paused in front of the alley way next to the restaurant. "Um…" she pressed her lips against his a bit smiling as he returned the kiss, she let it be her cue. She grabbed his shirt and shoved him against the wall, in a shadowy part of the alley. He grunted and pulled his face back looking at her surprised.

"Sorry Jade, I really like you, you're such a nice guy but, a woman's got to do, what a woman's got to do to survive." She swung her head down to his neck and bit into him. He tried to push her off, but with each drop of blood she swallowed Serena gained her strength back, and held him against the wall. Holding with tradition, she didn't kill him, but she did knock him out.

She placed a hand over his eyes "Sorry Jade…you will remember me, but not what I am, or what I did…" She smirked "Maybe just the thank you kiss…" She stood and turned leaving him there. She climbed the fire escape ladder to head to the roof tops.

She walked along the roof tops for about an hour, stretching feeling rejuvenated, when Rei and Mina caught up with her. She gave them a small smile, and a victory sign. They both smiled and shook their heads.

"So you used the "I'm lost and I'm meeting my friends some place" line again?" Rei asked resting her hands on her hips.

"And gave the poor lad a small, shy, "Come and get me big boy" smile?" Mina laughed.

"Hey, its been working for a long time, only this time, I actually like that poor lad. He was funny, and fun to talk with. But there was something familiar about his blood." She said looking at them both.

"Something familiar?" Rei asked, cocking her head to the side and crossing her arms.

"You actually liked a guy? What did he look like?" Mina asked, more interested in men then anything else.

"Yes, he was a sweet guy, yes, something familiar, and he was tall with short blonde hair, cool blue eyes, stylish clothes, and he was strong. I was just barely able to get him stationary…" Serena said answering both of their questions.

She thought for a second then gasped and looked at Rei, who seemed to have read her mind. "He…he's a hunter! He was with that hunter thirty years ago!" Rei said, starting to pace back and forth.

Serena rolled her shoulders agitatedly, "and you let him get away?" Mina asked dumb founded.

"I didn't realize it until just now, he looks exactly like that guy from before. He…" She smiled a bit "He gave me his name, and occupation. Find one, find the others…"

Rei smiled and rolled her eyes. "We live to find these guys and kill them, what will we do when we finally succeed?"

"I can't wait to find out." Serena said as she cracked her knuckles, I really just can't wait…"

Mina shrugged and rubbed her hands on her jeans "It will be weird, but it deffinantly will be good to stop all that training we go through on the week ends."

"Mina, you ditz, we haven't done that for more then three months, since Serena let that book of hers take over her life, but now that we're close, Serena, we're starting up again." Rei said as she started to head for the apartment.

Serena punched the steel, roof access, door denting it "I can't wait…"

Darien walked out of 'Bara no Kuroi' a Japanese restaurant, with Malachite at his side. They both froze and stared into the alley way across the street. "Damn…" Malachite mumbled. "Who could have gotten to him?" He asked, looking over at Darien, a little dumbfounded that a vampire could out smart Jadeite.

"I have a clue…they've been out smarting, and out maneuvering us for centuries my good friend…" They walked across the street and went to pick up Jadeite but he stirred and looked up at them.

"What the hell?" He said holding his head. "I…what are you two doing here?"

"We just came out of Bara no Kuroi when we saw you lying here…we thought you were dead…but you're not, and you have no bite marks…have you been drinking again?" Malachite said as they helped a dizzy Jadeite stand up.

"I don't remember I only remembering helping a beautiful, young girl find her way to her friend's side, then she gave me a thank you kiss, but then…after that nothing…" Jadeite said steadying himself.

"Do you remember her name, or what she looked like?" Darien asked raking a head through her shaggy mane of raven black hair.

"Yeah, here name was Serena, she's a fantasy novelist, and she was kind of short, with chin length platinum blonde hair, beautiful ocean blue eyes…" He said with a stupid grin. Malachite and Darien looked at each other and rolled their eyes, but Darien gave them both a demon grin.

"Boys, I believe we may be closer to getting our vamp…" Darien clapped them both on the back and walked towards their car.
