1Of Vampires and Werewolves
Queen Serenity heard the shriek and sighed and spoke softly "Well she's taking it well, I think." the sarcasm dripping from her voice.
Norm. POV
Half an hour later:
Serena dug her heels into the floor as her mother and father tried to push her out the door and into some kind of contraption that looked strangely like a giant grapefruit. The angels and nega warriors alike merely watched, each having his/her own experience with Serena's stubbornness.
Cameron and Rubeous were having a thumb war the loser had to do whatever the winner said for 10 mins. No matter what it was, "Snake hole" Rubeous declared, Cameron pouted and said "No fair But if you really want to play it that way…." She repositioned her thumb and shouted "Shovel" as she dug her nail between his fingers and into his thumb. Rubeous whimpered in pain and his thumb was released while he was still whimpering she captured it with her own. "WOO-HOO I WIN Oh yeah! Who Rocks? I DO, I DO!" The angels inched away from her very slowly, trying not to be noticed.
While Cameron was busy going psycho Serena was continuing to resist and calling Darien at the same time. Just as Serena started to get into a fight with her father again a voice came screaming from the back door, it was Alexi her cousin. "Serena! Serena! We were playing by the woods and they came out, of it! They came out of it! They took Jenna!" Selene frowned "Who! Who came out of it?" "They did," Alexi said emphasizing on the word 'they'. Serena's eyes widened and she ran into the basement coming out a few minutes later looking very strange to those who didn't know why she was dressed that way.
She had black manacles on her arms that had a silver moon crossed with a crest, her shirt was black strapless, and wore long black pants her hair was pulled back into a high pony tail and silver tiara which had three pearls in the form of a tricetra. She ran to the door and turned back to look at Alexi, "You know what to do?" Alexi nodded and Serena hugged him before running out the door, shutting it, and whistling.
WindRunner came cantering toward her, she bent close to his neck and whispered "To the forest boy, go!" He reared and lunged forward into a gallop. There was a strange blue barrier that had a very large hole in it. She and WindRunner passed through it with ease and the moment she was in she made a sharp right and seemed like she was going to run straight into, what appeared to be ancient runes made of solid stone. She passed right through the illusion to reveal a large and dark castle. She hopped off WindRunner and marched through the empty halls up to two very large doors, she heard laughter and music.
Without stopping she strode in and the doors flew open, as soon as she walked in the hall became silent there was much hissing and whispering but Selene paid no attention, she stopped in the middle of the floor and spotted Jenna, Alexi's sister. Unfortunately before she could reach her a voice called out "Welcome home Serena," In a sort of mocking, lazy way. She sighed and turned around to find herself face to face with possibly the most gorgeous man in the universe. Smiling ironically she spoke, her voice flat "Hello Jarrod. Been awhile, know?"
She turned around once again without waiting for a reply, and stalked off to Jenna she snapped the chains in two and helped her up. She whistled for WindRunner who obligingly came, "Climb on Jenna, he'll take you home." The younger girl nodded and held on to his neck as Selene slapped his flanks. "Ever the heroine as usual, I see," A voice drawled behind her. She once again turned around to find herself face to face with Jarrod. He smiled revealing two pointed canines. Serena raised her eyebrows and turned around to leave "Come now you've only just got here, and besides how can you be sick me already." With a flash he had her slammed against the wall, his body pinning her, his arms above her head, she was trapped. 'Shit!'
She sighed and quirked an eyebrow. "Is this really nessecary?" Jarrod smiled and cocked his head. "What ever do you mean my dear?" Her eyes narrowed and she grunted "You have 2 choices 1)Let me go, which would be wise. Or choose 2) Upon which I go into bitch mode and kick your ass. I can be a queen of bitches once I get started so make your choice wisely Jarrod, because this may be the last time you ever have your dick attached to your body." Jarrod merely smiled and stroked her cheek with the back of his hand "Bring it on, love. Lets see if the slayer can live up to her old reputation." Serena knew he wouldn't let her go but she had been planning to take it easy on him, yet since he said that last sentance her previous plan flew out the window. She knee'd him in the stomach and flipped while doing several backflips to put some distance between them. The fight went on like this for a few hours and Serena was beginning to get annoyed, her eyes narrowed in annoyance when he stood up yet again and vanished.
She then whirled around and summoned all her strength before punching him in the nose. She cracked her neck before walking at a brisk pace towards the doors. As she turned her back 100's of vampires appeared, it looked as if the entire court was there. Serena reached the doors and turned around "Here me well, rulers of the night! I am the slayer and I am stronger than ever if I ever hear that any of you has begun praying on humans again, and make no mistake I will hear about it, you and all of you kind will face my wrath as never before, it will be 1996 all over again, do you here me! I offer the pact of silence, your kind remain in the shadows while humans remain ignorant of your existence and I give you lands to keep and food, if you accept this pact and break it it is punishable by death. Do we have an agreement?" The vampires looked peeved before answering as one "To this pact we do so agree."
She nodded in satisfaction before opening the doors wide and walking out into the sunlight. Serena whistled loudly and silver horse trotted up, "You called?" the horse asked. She stroked the blaze on its head before speaking with her mind "Yes, I called, I am in need of you to take me to Genin." The mystical horse shook his head before bowing down to let Serena mount and said "So you command, so it shall be done."Serena mind-spoke "Thank you, Sir Renean." Renean said nothing but continued on knowing that if the Lady called on him it was a matter of great importance.
They reached what appeared to be a large waterfall a some hour and a half later. She dismounted and patted Renean on the back before following a trail that lead under the waterfall. Serena stepped into what seemed a cavern before waving her hand and dismissing the spell. There was a blur of motion before she found herself in the middle of a large room. She cleared her throat and the many lords and ladies stopped talking. She approached the throne before bowing to the rulers. "I am the slayer and I have come to renew our pact." The king nodded before speaking "Come with me to my study, where we may speak in privacy."
Serena followed the King and Queen down the hall and stopped when the reached the room at the very end.
The Queen went in first and Serena followed, the King sat in a chair by the fire and gestured for Serena to sit opposite to him."Now," His voice rich and melodic, "To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?" Serena's face seemed to flicker in the firelight "I have offered the pact of Silence to the vampires and it was accepted. I have now come to renew the pact we made so long ago."
The King sighed before speaking "Very well, very well. If you think it is necessary." Serena spoke again "I do."
The queen brought papers and spoke solemnly "Sign here." Serena read the paper first making sure everything was in order before signing her name. "Thank you for being so easy about this it makes things much easier." They smiled as she left, remembering the way out she left and walked towards home. As Serena returned home, she noticed there was another ship in the concealed area. She frowned before going to the back door to enter, she didn't have feel like entertaining any more guests at the moment, there was a note on the counter it read "Serena, went ahead. Don't be late and dress appropriately.
Love, Grandma"
She opened her bedroom door and fell on to her bed with a welcoming sigh. Serena had nearly fallen asleep when she remembered that there was a party and she had to go. She grunted slightly before going to the closet and picking out a midnight blue gown. It was strapless and was floor length with cuffs of silver gauze that was trailing down from a manacle on her arm to a manacle on her wrist.
She contemplated taking a car but opted to go with the
old fashioned way. Horseback.
WindRunner tossed his head and 'bowed' letting Serena get
on him without mussing her dress.
He was so thoughtful that sometimes Serena thought he was human. It didn't take them very long and Serena left WindRunner in the capable hands of stable boy named Billy.
She entered the party and looked for her family, she found them in a corner of the room talking in hushed tones. Serena approached Darius and Queen Serenity first, they saw her coming and their eyes gleamed with pride. She was the bell of the ball, her hair was put into a long pony-tail with a clip that shared similar designs with the manacles on her arms. Her hair shone silver in the light and her dress contrasted the silver perfectly. She looked like a Fae Goddess out of a fairy tale.
Queen Serenity took her hands and led her over to her father and the rest of the Nega- Warriors. Darius took her hand and smiled sadly before moving aside to reveal two men one older and one younger, you could tell it was father and son. Darius cleared his throat "Serenity," he stopped and shook his head "Serena, this is King Alcion of Universe C. And this is his son Prince Falcon, your betrothed." Serena looked up to gaze upon Prince Falcon and found herself staring into the face of the most gorgeous man she had ever seen, the smile on her face desperately wanted to vanish and she wanted to scream and yell but she knew better and the smile remained on her face and she said nothing only curtsied and prayed. 'Darien where ever you are, please come and get me away from this madness. Hurry, please for our sake and that of the universe.'
