Author's note: Well well long time no write, dunno this site is weird it never seems to post this story on the right page, or is that just me? Anyways a Wicca will become a part of this story as I received no complaints…well actually I'll give one last chance to anyone who is offended by it to speak up before I add a Wicca into the story for now just bare with me on this latest chapter…Anyways I've been at camp for a while and have had to do countless exams and haven't been able to update so anyways don't worry I haven't forgotten about anyone lol. Well okay I must shut up and get on with the story before people start hating me…more.

With only Huang and Olivia life at the precinct was empty, lonely almost, the two had never really done much in the way of conversation so any time they did speak there was a certain awkwardness between them. Olivia was well bored, there was seemingly nothing to do, Casey, Munch, Fin and Kee were off exploring other planes and saving the world well she was sitting around waiting for Elliot to come back and eating donuts for every meal.

She couldn't guess how long the others had been gone, without the morning and night to guide her, she had no sense of time, but she reasoned with herself there was no way more than a week could've passed, she hadn't after all eating that much.

She was sleeping, though not peacefully, muttering in her sleep when the first arrived. Huang was sipping his coffee, every so often sending balls of light towards the sky, for he had nothing else to do. Someone arrived at the precinct, a young man no older than twenty; he nervously knocked upon the doors and windows until at long last Huang came. He wasn't sure if this young man was to be trusted, but he reasoned with himself that if not Olivia would help.

Huang opened a door and sent a ball of light outside; the young man saw this but took a moment to look at it before racing to the door. He was a normal, ordinary looking guy, he wasn't ugly or cute but had no real defining features, his hair was short and black and his eyes a deep brown. His eyelashes were blonde and barely visible and his face smooth and he had a square jaw. Ordinary was the only suitable word to describe him, but then again how could an ordinary man walk the earth when time itself had turned its back? Huang questioned.

"Who sent you?" Huang asked shortly.

The young man looked shy and nervous, in a voice barely louder than a whisper he muttered, "I dunno some chick…"

"What did she look like?"

"She-she was really creepy, I think she was a ghost, she was transparent anyways, that's all I can remember…please man you gotta help me…"

"Come on inside then." Huang sighed.

The young man quickly scampered inside and gave a sigh of relief once the door was securely shut behind him.

"Why are you here?" Huang asked, deciding it was best to waste no time in questioning the young man.

The young man's breathing became heavy and quick, "I-I everyone I know is frozen, they're all statues, everyone but me, and-and the creepy girl who sent me to you said that I was cursed…am I, cursed I mean?"

"Yes you're cursed, but you also seem to have a lot of anxiety, it's not healthy for one who appears as young as you do…I too am cursed as you may have guessed when you saw me send those balls of light into the air…you should show me your curse now, get one thing out of the way anyways."

The young man glanced around quickly, "I'll show you, but please watch out." Wasting no time Huang got out of the way, the young man faced the wall and opened his mouth, a long sword shot out with an alarming speed a sunk a few inches into the wall. Huang raised an eyebrow in slight surprise, "See that chick she said she was the one who…froze time…she told me to go to the 1-6 precinct and I did…she said there were others like me…my name's Nathaniel…"

"Right well I'm George." Huang responded, "I suppose I'd better explain a few things to you."

The boat, the canoe rather of Kee's awaited them at the waters edge. It seemed to Casey as if the northern lights were all around them; they looked like shimmering curtains, ever flowing and endless. They had colors they'd never seen before and then a familiar eerie green that seemed to rise up from the waters. "This be my boat, you like?" Kee asked, "C'mon we go now, right friend?" he added looking at Casey.

Casey quickly looked around at Munch and Fin, they both nodded. "Well Kee…now do we get in?" she asked.

"Yes-yes, unless you swim good."

"Well then everyone time to…what are we doing again?" Casey muttered looking somewhat disheveled.

"Fighting the good fight…committing suicide…" Munch responded trailing off as everyone began to load into the tiny boat; he hastily got in himself, cramming himself in between Casey and Fin. He stole a quick glance at Casey's mind, she was thinking of eating donuts and bagels in her office, reminiscing about old times. There was no eating healthy in the precinct, as he always said, eat right, stay fit, die anyways, not that that rule exactly applied to him anymore…

He somehow knew that it would be a long time before things ever returned to the way they were, if ever. He waved a small good-bye to the gray stained world before the little boat took off and the city disappeared from view.

"So you're Nathaniel? I'm Olivia, are you okay, it's just you're so young."

"I'm seventeen. I'm not that young." Nathaniel responded quickly, "D-don't worry I can take care of myself lady, I have powers just like you remember?"

"You don't understand, they're not powers honey, they're curses." She said gently but forcefully, "But anyways I have to go find Elliot before his rage gets the better of him again."

"Olivia," Huang warned, "It's dangerous and Elliot can find you on his own." But she wasn't listening no matter what anyone else said she had to find Elliot, Huang sighed deciding it was best not to play psychiatrist anymore. Nathaniel studied her figure for a moment before she scurried out the door, a thoughtful look on his face.

He ran as far as his feet would carry him and only stopped when he became so exhausted that he fainted. Upon awakening he had no clue where he was all he knew was that had time still existed he would have surely been run over by a car, if not at the very least the authorities. He tasted the metallic taste of blood in his mouth; he struggled for a moment to get up.

It was a few minutes before Elliot remembered why he was there, Olivia, he'd almost killed her, he'd almost killed everyone well everyone excluding Munch. His inner darkness swirled inside of him…What the hell was wrong with him? What had he become?

Walk…run…in the end it was all the same so long as she was getting as far away as possible from the precinct. There were no stars no moon, no wind no nothing. Olivia craned her neck up to get a better look at the sky, empty just like it had always been in the city.

She sat down on a little wooden bench, feeling suddenly cold and tired. Her female intuition sent shivers down her spine she was being watched. She stayed on the bench for a moment or so longer trying not to draw attention to the fact that she was aware that eyes were on her. Slowly she got up and started walking away, the eyes remained on her, hidden in the darkness someone followed her. Her pace quickened into a run and yet feet still followed. She ran as fast as her legs could carry her, adrenaline rushing through her body.

The darkness suddenly appeared in front of her, and on all sides, all-possible escape roots were now blocked off. She sank to her knees, fear finally getting the best of her, the darkness swirled then came together, making a form.

The darkness eventually made a human form, a pale man with black eyes stood before her, he looked like he was around her age, warring nothing but black, but Olivia couldn't help but notice that even through her confusion he was incredibly handsome and his pale skin didn't give him the appearance of being sick but instead mysterious.

He smiled, showing his teeth, Olivia cringed, there was no doubt; he was a vampire. She knew that she shouldn't be scared, maybe she wasn't, and she couldn't tell anymore, her mind wasn't functioning. The vampire opened its mouth, "Don't worry I don't bit." It said.

Olivia smirked at this last comment; she couldn't help but find the irony in it amusing. She wasn't scared, she was a cop, she'd faced death before, it hadn't scared her before and certainly wouldn't now, "What do you want?"

"Well answers would be nice, considering that you're a human and just so happen to be walking when everyone else is frozen solid well lets just say my logic is telling me that you might just know what's going on."

"And my logic is telling me that since you're obviously a vampire that you, well shouldn't be trusted."

"Darling now that's just discrimination. Anyways I'm not looking for a chat, I was just visiting this plain, it used to be such a nice vocation destination, but what's happened to it?"

"What I call the shadows, have gotten to it, basically the world's about to end." Olivia said in an exasperated voice, "Now please leave me be I have to go find my friend."

He looked at her, studying her for a moment before responding, "I can't just let a pretty little thing like you wonder off by her lonesome, that wouldn't make me much of a gentleman, now would it? This place is dangerous now; personally I recommend that you move to another plain, after all you're only human, if you were a demon like me then I'd let you go but…"

Olivia sighed and rolled her eyes, great Olivia pretty soon you'll have yourself a demon trying to hit on you, which is if he isn't already… "Screw off I can take care of myself." She smiled slightly, now to show off my powers a bit…she sent water at his face with enough force to send him sprawling backwards.

"What the hell?" he muttered, bewildered he looked up at her form that was already headed in the opposite direction, "What are you?" he practically yelled after her.

"Like you said, human." She muttered not turning or stopping to look at him, she waved slightly, "Bye-bye."

He swore angrily beneath his breath, "WAIT!" he yelled after her, "I told you I couldn't let you go, not alone anyways, I'll help you find your friend."

Well you're having a perfectly normal conversation, with a vampire, the world's about to end, the vampire's probably going to kill you, good job Olivia, good job, once again your life is so screwed up it's not even funny. She thought for a moment her mind drifting to her childhood, but quickly she shook it off. "Fine, but you have to tell me, and don't give me anymore of this 'I'm a gentleman' crap, why you're even bothering with me, if you don't want to suck my blood."

"I couldn't hurt a pretty face like yours and besides darling I've met other demons here and despite you being able to spray people with water they'll still rip you to shreds. Anyways I wont suck your blood and just kill you, no I'll make you a vampire too." He said smiling, "But not until you ask me to that is."

She cocked up an eyebrow, "Until I ask? Why the hell would I want to be like you."

"I can see it your eyes, deep down inside you fear death, and deep down inside despite how much you try to hide it you're dark just like me. And you want demonic powers, not just the vampiric ones that I have but you want enough power to rule." He said his lips forming a thin-lipped smile, he looked into her skeptical face, listened as she tried to deny his words, "You were born of evil, I can smell it from a mile away, and seriously I can." He added, "Tell what were your parents, tell me all about your life."

"I never met my father, he rapped my mother, that's how I came to be. My mother was a drunk-"

"That's enough." He said cutting her off, "So if you never knew your father whose to say, he wasn't a demon himself, maybe you can do more than just get people wet."

"You're wrong…"

"No, darling we vampires know these things, why do you think I bothered with you, if I'd thought you were a mere human you'd already be dead. But I can smell your blood for what it really is, I can smell the blood of your father, who was definitely a power crazed demon and despite how much you hate it, and he'll always be a part of you."

"I've spent my whole life trying to avoid that…I…you're wrong."

"No I'm right…just trust me, let the demonic powers free, let them mix into the human ones, let them clash and eliminate the weaker parts then join together, let yourself be what you really are."

Tears sprang to her eyes, she sank to her knees, and she could feel it, somewhere hidden within the depths of her mind and soul, the vampire was right, the demonic powers were there. But suddenly they didn't scare her anymore; they were a part of her and despite where they came from, she knew they'd bring her good and if her father was still out there somewhere she'd use them against him. The powers were set free; they began flowing through her blood forcing her to go into convulsions. Her mind and soul were changing, combining with the demonic powers. When the convulsions stopped the vampire bent down beside her, "There you go darling, don't you feel wonderful? Come now; let's go find that friend of yours."

"I don't need you, I'm a demon now." She said.

"No you don't." He said pulling her to her feet, "But you want me, I know you do." He drew her closer to him and kissed her, wrapping his arms around her waist and despite everything inside of her screaming no she wasn't about to make him stop, because it felt so right. She couldn't see even if she wanted the changes that she'd gone through. I t wasn't just that she was stronger but she wasn't the same caring human being, she wasn't a human at all.

The boat ride seemed to take merely minutes, when the little boat reached shore it appeared to be daytime. Casey looked around in wonder, they appeared to have stepped into a market, and people or at least things that looked like people were selling and exchanging goods. She looked around for Kee hopping for his guidance but didn't see him, instead she saw and young dark skinned teenage boy, she looked at the boy for a moment then with a sudden shock asked, "Kee?"

The boy nodded and put a small finger to his lips, he appeared handsome but not powerful like his blue skinned self did. He spoke he still had the same exotic accent, "Friends we go into market, we buy weapons then leave, eat not food here, if you be hungry find me." He said his voice somehow commanding and not cute as it had been, Casey eyed him, he was demon and capable of strange things and up until that point the fact that Kee might be dangerous hadn't worried her.

"I don't suppose anyone's thought about this whole money thing." Munch muttered as the group walked towards the market, "In case you guys have forgotten things don't tend to come free in life." But no one was listening to him he sighed muttering something about lack of respect. He gaze followed Kee, if Kee was a demon in human form then who knew how many people in the market were too.

"Mention not powers." Kee warned, "You say you one of them and you stay close to me, I buy everything we need okay?"

They looked at each other a brief flash of doubt showing on their faces, Kee began walking they all followed somewhat uncertainly.

"You know," Casey said to Munch, "I was thinking, you can read my mind, it's not too fair, I should be able to read yours too."

Munch smirked, "Trust me you don't want to read my mind, it's not a fun place to be, and anyways I don't go around constantly reading your mind, worrying about you, I have my own brain to worry over, besides I don't want to totally invade your privacy. I'd never want to hurt you."

She smiled up at him, "I know." She muttered, "I was just curious about what goes on in the head of someone with such interesting ideas as you."

Author's note: Well I'm sure a lot of you are saying what the hell with this latest chapter. Namely the Olivia thing was kind of weird, but don't worry it's all for the greater good by which I mean EO and trust me there will be plenty of EOness in this story but realistically Olivia cant just fall in love with Elliot right away nor can there be any Olivia and Elliot make out scenes just yet, although it's tempting. And no she's not in love with some random vampire, just bare with me on that little bit; all will hopefully make sense by the next chapter. That is if you want me to write another one, I know I haven't written in a while so you may have lost interest. Just since I'm a review whore do tell me if you want me to continue and also last chance to tell me if you're offended my Wicca. And do remember, I like getting constructive criticism, yes funny as it sounds I like getting constructive criticism so I can improve on my writing skills. But remember I'm young and my spelling my not be up to snuff but unfortunately I cant put any kind of spell-check on my super slow and old computer .

Anyways if you have any questions or concerns, well frankly review and tell me what they are. If you don't but have some good old praise well, being a review whore once again review and tell me. And any constructive criticism is once again welcome so review away, and yes if I get barely any reviews I'll take that as a "please don't continue this story" and thus stop writing this story, so yeah that's it, adieu!
