Chapter Four
"Memories Fade"

As he drifted into sleep I stayed alert and ready to fight. Even though I knew that I couldn't do anything in my current state, I wanted to protect him. I almost thought that I loved him but decided against it. I can't love anymore, its impossible. "Sleep well my devil." Those words flowed out of my mouth like I always used to say it. This actually scares me, I don't know where it came from. Worried I place my hand over my forehead to see if I was sick. 'You can't get sick stupid, you're already dead' I thought to myself silently. I heard him giggle. "Shut it Aubrey, go to sleep already!" I felt myself to blush and damned myself to eternal embarrassment. 'Damn you' I leaned up against the hollow tree where we were staying the night and began to close my eyes when I heard someone approach. 'Shit' I said to myself, making Aubrey instantly alert and a bit dizzy. "Whoa there Aubrey, It's just me Sarah…I thought I smelt blood from a fledgling, did not realize she was your vampire" Her voice was smooth and light. She had features of an angel the only difference being her eyes, white as snow and yet so evil looking. I knew she was what I became and that she has lived for a long time. "Sarah, I am glad it is only you. Had it been Astro…" "I heard, and smelt it…" Their conversation carried on for hours as we walked towards her domicile.
