Zoë

When Abby woke up the next morning she found Zoë sitting up in her room playing with a toy that was lying around. Abby smiled at her as she looked in on her. When Zoë saw Abby she gave her a hug and then asked Abby if she wanted to play with her. Abby agreed and sat down, intent on trying to get something out of Zoë about how she got away.

"So Zoë, how did you really get away from Drake?" Abby looked at Zoë for some kind of emotion, but Zoë showed barely any when she answered her.

"I didn't get away, like run away. He let me go." As these words slipped from Zoë's mouth Abby's jaw dropped open. It was impossible to think that Drake had let her go.

"He did, did he?" Abby asked at which Zoë nodded confidently and smiled at her friend. Abby stood and told Zoë to wait and she would go get King to make breakfast. Zoë nodded at her and then Abby slipped out to where the Blade and King were still sleeping.

Abby woke King up and told him what Zoë had told her. King stood up and walked to the kitchen, Abby followed and then watched as he began to cook breakfast.

"Go back to sleep for now, Abby and let me sort through a few things." King sounded serious for the first time since she had ever known him. When she had first met him she remembered how sad he was.

Flashback

Abby killed another vampire before setting off in search of Danicka and her so called pet. Abby wondered why people chose to become familiars or anything close to a vampire. It was a horrible and often tortuous position.

Abby turned the corner just I time to see Danicka escaping from the building. Abby walked down the hall almost defeated, but then heard a slow but heavy breathing coming from the room up ahead. Abby cautiously opened the door and found a man, a very handsome man, chained to the ground. He looked almost dead.

Abby approached him, gun at the ready and then saw the man open his eyes. His eyes were brown, a big brownish color that made you melt. She knelt down beside him and he grabbed her hand. As he began to whisper into her ear she looked his body up and down seeing all the wounds and scars from Danicka.

"Please help me. Either kill me or take me away from here." Abby's eyes grew wide and she looked the man in the eyes, she shot the chains that confined him to the ground and he stood up looking at her.

"Name's Abigail Whistler." Abby said to him and he nodded appreciatively at her.

"Hannibal King." He said and they took off out of the hell that had been his life for almost 5 years (correct me if I am wrong about that).

End Flashback

Abby laid her head on his shoulder and smiled at herself thinking about that time. She kissed him on the cheek and walked into the room where Blade was sitting. He was now playing a board game with Zoë.

"I win again, Blade!" Zoë yelled at him and he smiled at her. Blade looked up at Abby and then stood. She nodded her head to the kitchen.

"Go in there and help him sort things out. I told him something that both of you may find hard to believe. Just go." Abby said to Blade as he began to open his mouth. Abby sat down with Zoë and began to play the game with her.

After a few games Abby and Zoë watched some TV, and then they decided to finish unpacking some things. While unpacking one box, Abby heard yelling and then she heard the door slam. When she went into the kitchen, Blade sat at the table with his head down and King was standing outside on the patio.

Abby walked out to the patio and came up behind King, wrapping her arms around him and hugging him. They stayed this way until she spoke quietly to him.

"King, what happened back there?" Abby sounded worried and King could hear it in her voice. He turned around to face her and hugged her tightly to his body.

"It just is really upsetting to think that Drake would actually be a nice guy." He whispered into her ear and then he felt her nuzzle his neck.

"Are you gonna be okay?" Abby asked still worried about him and his actions.

"Of course, Kitten, because you need me, right?" King asked her and then Abby felt herself crying for him on the inside. The she felt him rubbing her back and she nodded to him.

"Let's go inside then, King." Abby said to him and he nodded.

As the two went inside they could see behind them that it was going to be cloudy and that it would probably rain today.
