Disclaimer- I do not own Power rangers

Last time: Wes and Eric discover four bodies' dead. The only problem is there is no logical explanation of how they died. Later, Eric was suppose to meet up with Taylor for a date but never showed. However, Taylor met a man named Cael who is captivating in his own dark way. When Taylor arrives home, she has no idea that Cael followed her. After hanging up with Eric, Taylor went to bed only to be attacked by Cael.

The Feel of Evil

Chapter 2- Sweet Seduction

Taylor, tried her best to free herself from the dark prince's grip, however he was strong. She could not even fathom a way free. His teeth tore at her neck, finding the sweet red juice that flowed beneath. The yellow wild ranger felt considerably weak. She felt the life being drained from her, her body becoming too heavy. She began to go limp until she fell onto the bed. Her eyes closed and yet the only thing on her mind at that moment was Eric.

Cael drank, the beast in him overwhelming him. He drank, filling the gnawing hunger that his body needed. After he drank the blood of his former neighbor, and killed her, he regained only minimal strength. However, it gave him enough to leave his casket, and travel to the parlor where the three others were. When he entered, he flew to the father, pinning him to the ground and snapped his neck like a twig. The two boys who watched in horror tried to flee. Realizing the danger, Tynan appeared and stopped them quickly. He and Talon fed on them, much to the Prince's dislike. He wanted all four of them to drink. It had been too long since he fed and when he was hungry, he was like a wild beast, untamable. As he continued his feast, he the phone began ringing loudly. Cael lifted his head, massive amounts of blood dropping off his chin and down his neck.

The disturbance was unnecessary, but it stopped him for a moment. He wiped the blood from his mouth and then noticed her ravaged wound. The wound he inflicted upon her flesh. The phone still rang and it annoyed him. With one quick flick, he knocked the phone across the room, the cord snapping. His eyes fixated on the massive amount of blood soaking her yellow pillow. He needed to close to the wound fast or she would become like the family he had recently fed upon, however not so violently. He leaned over her again, and traced his tongue along the wound. The wound closed up; however, the bruises and the savage marks remained. Her face looked deathly pale. Gently, he tipped her head up and tore open his shirt. He sliced a long line on his chest and made her drink the blood, his tainted blood flowing down her throat. She drank slowly needing the nourishment back.

One exchange down, He thought.

Just then, he felt the presence of his follower. Tynan appeared first. He bowed gracefully and then Talon appeared.

"Did you bring the clothing?" Cael asked. "And where is Talon?"

"Doing her version of 'shopping'."

Tynan held out a black outfit and threw it carelessly on the chair. Cael looked over Tynan. He was about to leave when he noticed a picture frame. Inside was a picture of Taylor and a man. Cael let out a low growl and sliced the picture in half. He gave Eric's picture to Tynan.

"Seal this room and find this man the one she calls Eric." Cael said before disappearing into the shadows.

Tynan carefully sealed the window back up and then launched himself into the air. His body began to shift into a gruesome creature. His eyes turned crimson red, his skin pale white, and his hair dead against his skin. Wings exploded his back, and his nails became long like claws. Talon watched him fly away. She turned toward the window and sighed before she too disappeared into the shadows

It did not take him long until he spotted Eric. He was getting into his car. Tynan waited until he started driving. Once the car was driving down the empty road, he swooped lower.

He could sense a strong aura around him. It made him wonder what kind of power he possessed. His mouth curved into a sadistic grin as he did nose dive, heading strait for the car. He swooped down low so his body was just barely missing the ground. He flew near Eric's car, hearing the music playing on his radio. Grinning, he moved toward the back left tire and with a quick swipe, slashed the tire.

Inside the car, Eric felt the car begin to twist, swerving off the road. Eric slammed his foot on the break and tried to steady the wheel to regain control of the car. Once the car came to a stop, Eric turned it off and went to check on the damage. He looked at the wheel that blown out and could not believe it. He knelt down to see the rubber completely slashed.

"How the heck did this happen?" he questioned.

However, before he could even get up a large hand clamped on his shoulder. The next thing Eric knew he was sent flying into the air. The silver guardian landed on the ground and then went skidding across the concrete. He looked up and saw Tynan staring at him, in his true form.

"What the heck are you?" Eric asked.

"You're worse nightmare," Tynan hissed, extending his razor sharp claws.

Eric's eyes widened. Without hesitating he shouted out, "Quantum Power!" the next thing, Tynan knew Eric was transformed into the Quantum Ranger. Tynan hissed, his thoughts confirmed.

"So you are a power ranger," he muttered. "We will meet again."

With that, the vampire flung himself into the air and flew off. Eric held out his gun but before he could even take a shot, the monster disappeared into the sky. He changed back to his street clothes still staring up at the sky.

"What was that all about?"

Talon tossed on of her victims on the ground. She had been doing her 'shopping' when these three men came up to her. They had lust in their minds, she could see it in there eyes. They attempted to force themselves on her but she easily dispatched of them. The first man she dislocated his arm before throwing him head first into a brick wall. The second tries to hit her with a pipe but she grabbed it and then hit him with it. The third guy tried to run but Talon easily caught up to him and then fed upon him. They were a decent snack for her now.

"Pathetic," she said watching them lie dead.

"So here you are Talon," a voice hissed.

Talon tilted her head up and saw her master land on the balls of his feet. He towered over the blonde beauty before grabbing her by the throat. He lifted her off the ground his eyes crimson.

"You are slacking in your duties to me," he growled, spitting venomously.

"What you need me to dispatch some little boy? Why not I just convert that little girl into a vampire too, since you can't do it yourself?"

Just then, Cael slammed her against a brick wall. His claws began to puncture her throat. Talon's amber eyes filled with pain as she felt the claws bury into her.

"Master, please stop," Tynan landed next to him. "She is one of us, she is loyal to you."

Cael dropped her to the ground and glared at Tynan. He bowed gracefully to his master, transforming back into his human form. Talon rubbed the wounds in her throat. Tynan glanced over but his gaze returned his prince.

"My suspicions were correct, that boy does have powers." Tynan explained. "He is a Power Ranger. The power he carries is very strong. I did not want to face him because he might very well have other friends near by. We cannot afford another loss like the last one. We must get to our haven; the sun will be rising soon."

Cael grunted. "If he gets in the way, dispose of him." and with that the Prince flew into the air to return to his new home.

Once he was gone, Tynan reached over and helped Talon up. He brought his tongue to her wounds, closing them. Once he was done, he gently caressed the vampiress.

"Know your place Talon," Tynan spoke. "Our master is not stable in his current condition. The battle nearly killed him and we cannot afford another loss like the one before."

"I know my place," she hissed. "I am nothing but a trinket to you. You would rather have someone new."

She turned from him, visibly angry and jealous. Gently Tynan brought his arms around her and smiled. He placed a gentle kiss on her neck his hands running through her long blond locks.

"You my dear, are the only one I want." He said between kisses. "I've wanted you since the moment I saw you. Now come the sun will rise soon."

Taylor awoke with her neck throbbing painfully. Last night was like a blur to her. She stumbled trying to regain herself as she got out of bed. Once in the bathroom she took the longest shower ever trying to ease the pain. After washing, she got out and looked at her neck. It was horrifying image but she could not remember how it happened. She traced the bruises with her fingertips. The only thing she could remember was getting frustrated with Eric. She did not even know why she was mad at him, she just was.

"I need to apologize to him," she concluded, "Tonight when I meet up with him."

She gently began to massage her temples feeling a headache coming on. Every time she thought of Eric, her head would pound so much that she felt like she would throw up in a second.

"Why are you so late?" Wes asked, watching Eric come through the door.

"Last night I blew a tire and with my luck I didn't have a spare." Eric groaned. "So I had to wait for a tow truck to come and get me."

Wes nodded, but he began to notice the trouble look on his face. Wes sat up strait in his chair. He placed down several documents he was looking at before Eric came in. Pushing his chair away from his desk, he got up.

"You okay?" he asked. "You look sick."

"Wes, something attacked my car last night." Eric said not sure of what he saw. "It slashed my tire and this thing was huge a pale but I don't know what it was. I do not think it was an org or a mutant. Right after I morphed it flew away, almost like it was analyzing me or something."

"Weird, but it didn't hurt you at all?"

"Not a scratch."

Wes sat back down at his desk and shook his head. Just then, one of the cadet Silver Guardians burst through the door. He looked much younger then both Eric and Wes.

"Sir, we have a report of three homicides." He said. "I think you should come down and see it, it was not too far from where that family was found!"

Wes and Eric got up and bolted out the door. It took them less then an hour to get to the site, which was now taped off and had tons of police officers, inspectors, and such. Wes and Eric stared as the bodies were being covered and taken away by stretchers. Wes stopped one of the police officer who was writing down details for a report.

"Any idea what happened?" Wes asked.

"These men were actually attacked," said the officer. He began flipping through his notes. "However, none of the injuries they sustained should be life threatening. One had a dislocated arm, another a hit to the lower abdomen, and the third had no injuries to him. It is as if they just died."

Eric and Wes looked at one another. This was just like how the family died. Not a single visible signs of injuries that could have caused their deaths found. This one seemed at least show a struggle but it was curious.

"I think we should go check on the bodies of the family." Wes suggested. "If they did the autopsy we might have some clue how these people are dying."

Nodding, the two headed back for their car to head down to the city morgue.

Taylor impatiently tapped her fingers on the table waiting for Eric. It was only five minutes after their scheduled meeting. He would be here soon. She just had to keep positive. He would not forget the second time. Yet the time ticked away and it was night once again. Taylor found her cell phone and decided to give Eric an ear full. She knew he was busy being a Silver Guardian but a promise was important to her. Before she could dial the number, a shadow fell over her. Taylor glanced up and her eyes widened.

"So it is you!" Cael said smiling. "I was not sure at first but it is you. Is something wrong you look upset?"

"Yeah," Taylor said turning on her cell phone. "Once again my boyfriend forgot me."

"Oh, oh well he must be a busy man." Cael said taking a seat. "I'm sure he will be here soon enough. If you'd like I can stay and chat with you until he comes."

"No, its okay…" Taylor looked into his dark eyes.

Those eyes were so dark she would have thought they were black. They were so beautiful yet so haunting at the same time. She could not bring herself to tear her eyes away. She felt compelled to continue looking. Cael smiled again, showing off his perfect white teeth. Without even realizing it, she found her herself placing her cell phone back into her purse.

It has been hours. Leave this place, your boyfriend is not showing up. A voice spoke into her head, sending chills down her spine.

"Hey do you want to go for a walk?" Taylor asked. "I think Eric, my boyfriend, stood me up."

"I'd be delighted." He stood up and held out his hand. Without thinking, she took it and then laced her fingers with his. It was like a dream. Taylor could not even understand why she asked him to walk with her, she hardly knew the man. When she pulled away her hand from him, Cael look down at her.

"I'm sorry but I have a boyfriend. I just can't hold your hand…" her eyes once again found his and she could not resist him. He was black magic and power clung to him. It took all of her will not to take his hand, his oddly cold hand.

"Are you feeling all right?" Cael asked his voice soft and soothing. Cael brought his hand to her cheeks and his eyes were now fully locked with hers. She could not escape him. His hands pushed back her blonde locks finding the ravaged skin. Despite the blemish, she was beautiful and he wanted her. Gently he bent his head down tasting her sweet spicy skin. Taylor felt her body begin to lose all its strength. Then the next thing she knew she was falling into a deep sleep.

"All women seem to swoon for me." He smiled as her eyes went heavy.

Then, she fell limp in his arms. Cael smiled and went to take her blood when a shadow appeared at his side. He turned his head annoyed and saw the amber-eyed vampiress. She was now sporting black shorts, a racer back, and black books. Cael snorted in displeasure, seeing his servant.

"What is it," he snapped.

"The power ranger is coming," she stated. "Tynan spotted him we must return her to her home before he becomes suspicious."

Suddenly Tynan appeared from the shadows. He made a quick bow to his master and then confirmed Talon's statement. Cael growled, his claws slowly digging into Taylor threatening to puncture her skin.

"Master allow Talon to take her back, you may go hunt for other prey while I deal with the ranger." Tynan said.

Without a word, he carelessly tossed Taylor to Talon. Talon easily swung her over shoulder as if she was light as a feather. Then the dark prince left his group disappearing in a mere blur. Tynan nodded toward Talon who gave him a cold glare.

"Talon," Tynan called out. "He is unstable still."

"I know," she hissed before launching herself into the sky.

When Talon arrived at Taylor's house, she laid the ranger on her couch carelessly. The blonde vampiress stared at her coldly. She sat down next to her, studying her features. The raw wounds on her neck made her reach for her own, sparking something in the back of her mind.

"It hurts a lot worse" Talon spoke softly. "A lot worse then it already does."

Then she turned around and sighed. She stretched out her arms and then turned toward her once more before leaving.

"Two more exchanges and you'll be one of us." Her voice whispered as she melted into the shadows.
