Powers of a Full Moon

Chapter 2

Morning came, noon flew by and soon enough the sun was finally setting on another long day. Asami was awake and in the kitchen eating along with Zilla at her side.

"So are you going to go into the town tonight Asami?" Kayla the lady of the house said as she did the dishes.

"Yes. I want to see if I can find anything out on this person… Kyle H?" She said questionably as she took out the clip board and showed the information of Kyle to her.

"Oh. That's Mr. Honiara. I've heard rumors of him. And not many of them are good." Kayla said drying off her hands and sitting across the table.

"What have you heard about him?"

"Well for one he is a full vampire like you. Except that he has the ability to be out in day light."

"How is that possible? I can only be out in day light for one week during the month, of the week of the full moons."

"They say that he went to a very powerful sorceress to put that kind of spell on him."

"So that means I might run into him more likely during the day then at night?"

"Probably but he loves the night. And he's very powerful. He has his own clan, or so I think he does from all the people I see around him when I ran into him a little while back." She said as she put a finger to her chin and had a distant look in her eyes as she tried to remember. "They all seemed to abbey him with out complaint….I over heard a some of them call him Lord."

"Lord… yea right…" Asami slightly hissed through clenched teeth. "My father is the only Vampire Lord."

"So that's why you're on this mission right? To put an end to him before he tries taking over your father's position or something like that?"

"Yes. So what else have you heard of him?" Asami asked as she flipped to the back of one of the papers and quickly started writing things down. "The more, I know the easier this will be."

"Well he travels around with one of his minion, a bat demon I think, all the time. So if you meet up with him you probably going to have to deal with him as well and maybe a few others too."

"Ok. Well I'm going to have to come up with a good plan for this one." Asami said as she wrote ideas down on the paper with a heavy sigh. "I think I'm going to head out now. And try to find him or get more information on him."

"Ok be back before sunup. I couldn't have anything happen to you."

"Don't worry it's the week of the full moons. I can be out in the light now." Asami said smiling as she walked out the door. "Oh watch Zilla for me I can't bring her along or someone might suspect that I'm up to something."

"Ok good luck." Kayla said with a nod and watched as Asami swiftly and gracefully walked out the door.

Asami walked through the town stopping at shops and stores to get info on Kyle. But everything she got was of no use. She was now sitting down in the back of an alley looking at all the notes she had. "He's the best. He's very kind. Blah blah blah!! This isn't going to help me!!" She sighed and through the clip board on the ground next to her and looked up at the sky. "How am I supposed to get any good info on this guy? All this is is junk on how kind he is… how nice he is... I need to know how to kill this guy not how much he is loved." She sighed and closed her eyes. "He's a vampire for god's shakes! He's not supposed to be that kind… Or…" She trailed off in deep thought. "He has a plan and that is part of it? Gain the trust of the village people and when the time comes they will do his bidding with out complaint?"

She let out a soft sigh and looked out the alley to see a few shadows of villager's walking by. The only light was that of the moon and that of the lanterns outside the villager's homes. This town was so small and poor it seemed that it couldn't afford the new thing that came out recently called electricity like she now has at her father's castle.

After a little while of dazing off in thought she was brought out of her daze at the sound of foot steeps in the entrance of the alley. Glancing towards the entrance she saw the shadow of a small group of people heading her way. She tossed her bag behind the dumpster and stood up back against the wall. She noticed that all of the five figures where dressed in thick black cloaks so she couldn't see them as clearly. The figure in front seemed to be the biggest out of all of them. It stood a little taller over the other four and lead the way as they filed behind them.

Asami watched as they passed by with out a passing glance and continued on out into the street and into the next alley disappearing with the darkness of the night. In the next moment, while distracted a few more steeps caught her off guard. Now who stood in front of her, eyes locked on her with drunken or lust full gaze was a group of thugs.

"Why is such a pretty lady such as your self doing alone in the middle of a dark alley?" A husky voiced man said. As they neared and stood in the light she saw that he had really short dirty blonde hair, short but still taller then her and a slightly chubby body that reeked heavily of beer.

"That is none of your business." Asami said glaring to them then turned to head the other way out of the alley. She would pick her bag up later.

"Leaving so soon. Why don't you say and play with us." Another said as he round the corner, blocking her way out. He too had dirty blonde hair but it was a little longer then the first and was more built but roughly around the same size as the first one.

"I rather not." She said as she backed up a little from the first one, back against the wall and looked around. She then noticed there were now four people surrounding her on all sides. 'Great…' She thought as she looked around at the guys all in torn or worn clothing and all reeked heavily of beer and other things.

"Why not??" The one in front of her said. By the way his clothes where more fancy looking and the way he looked bigger then the others, he had to be the leader.

"We would like to have some fun with you." The one directly to the left of her said. He stood in the shadows so she couldn't quite see him as well.

"I think not." She glared at all them as her hands balled into fists.

"Oh you're no fun." Another said as he grabbed her arm, it was the short chubby one.

"Let go you filthy bastard!" She hissed swinging her arm free from his grip with no trouble. She still has some vampire strength but felt it weakening as the night passed on.

"Now that was harsh." He said again as he and another grabbed both her arms in a tight grip.

"Let me go you filthy bastards!!" She yelled as she tried to get free with a lot more trouble this time 'I would have no trouble if I had my full vampire strength. But because of this new moon I'm stuck being a week!! What a great time to walk around at night alone!' She kept on trying to get free. And succeeded twice but got caught again. Her strength weekend and her body drained from the tried effort.

"Calm down beautiful. We're not going to hurt you. We're just going to have some fun… that's all." The leader said as he stood in front of her and put his hand on her cheek. She hissed and bit him on his wrist drawing a decent amount of blood.

"You are not to touch me again!!" She hissed.

"That's it! You're going to pay for that wrench!!" The others let her go and she was then slapped hard across the face, making her fall to her knees. She glared up at him and stood up wiping the little blood from the corner of her mouth. "Still standing huh? Well that wont last much longer.' He swung his fist at her but she quickly dodged it. "God damn wench stand still."

Asami watched as the other three crowed in. "Shit out numbered…." She mumbled. "I like that." She grinned as one went to grab her but she quickly and still swiftly jumped kicked him in the gut making him fall back. Then the other two tried and she ducked and they crashed into each other. She then found an opening between them and ran the alley as they chased her. She crossed the empty street and into the other alley. They where right on her tail. She was faster then them but only by a little. But as she ran she picked up a metal garbage can lid and threw it at them hitting one on the head. She laughed a little and continued on running throwing things back at them and when they did catch up once she kicked and punched them all to the ground once again.

She was now at a dead end looking for a way out when they caught up. They had burses and blood all over there faces. When she saw that she laughed. "And I thought you guys were supposed to be tough?"

"You're going to pay for what you have done to us bitch!!" The tall muscular one yelled at her as they closed in again.

"Ooo I'm so scared!!" She said sarcastically as she watched them get closer. She backed up to the wall and looked up and around to find anything to jump on but found nothing. Just when one of the guys were about to grab her something flew at its head making it fall back unconscious. The other three and Asami looked up to see two other people standing on the fire landing above them. Both where dressed in thick heavy black cloaks. One big and muscular looking that other tall and thin but seemed to be stronger despite the look. 'The guys from earlier.' She let out a small sigh of relief. For some reason she knew they where here to help her, or that's what she hoped.

The bigger built one of the two jumped down to land in front of Asami. The thugs charged after him with anger at being interrupted only to be sent flying backwards into dumpsters or the wall. Soon all four thugs were unconscious. Asami looked at the guy as he turned swiftly on the ball of his heal to face her. He then steeped to the side as the other guy jumped down to land in front of her. She said nothing but just looked at him.

"I think this is yours?" He said as he pulled out her bag from his cloak and handed it to her.

"Thanks…" She mumbled and took the bag, swinging it onto her back but never took her eyes off of them.

"Next time be careful not to hang out in dark alleys by your self." He said calmly.

"No one tells me what to do. So I just do what ever I please." Asami said as she crossed her arms over her chest with a slightly annoyed look.

"I'm not telling you what to do… just warning you. Because maybe next time we won't be your savers but your attackers." After he said that they both jumped back onto the roof and disappeared in the darkness of the night.

"What the hell was that about?!" She asked aloud to herself as she headed back out on to the streets and started walking back to Kayla's house. When she walked through the doors she saw what she really looked like. Her clothes were all torn up and she was covered in dirt. When she walked into the house and through the hall she saw Kayla in the living room. Sitting on a chair next to a lit fire place sewing something.

"Got anything new?" Kayla asked never looking up from what she was doing.

"Yeah. But none of it I can use." Asami said walking into the living room.

"Oh dear what happened to you?" Kayla said looking up to see her torn clothes.

"Oh nothing much just got into a fight with some thugs." She said as Zilla landed on her shoulder.

"Are you ok?"

"Yep. At the end some guys in a black cloak saved me.." Asami said smiling slightly as she pet Zilla behind her one ear.

"It was probably Mr. Honiara. He does things like that from time to time..." Kayla said standing up.

Asami blinked and was speech less. She knew it could have been those who where his followers but she never thought she would run into him that quickly.

"Well maybe you'll meet up with him again sometime." Kayla said as she crossed the room and stood at the stairs. "I'm heading up to bed now. You should get cleaned up and get something to eat. Good Night."

"Thanks. Night." Asami said as she walked down into the basement and set her things on the bed. She quickly undressed and soaked in a hot bath. "What kind of hunter am I? I can't even identify the person I'm supposed to kill, even with him standing in front of me!! And he wasn't supposed to save me!!" She growled and slapped her fist in the water splashing soppy water everywhere. She sighed as she took a dry towel and wiped the water from her face and then closed her eyes. "But I have to admit that it was fun and that servant of his was an ok fighter… Wait a second! What the hell am I saying!! I am supposed to hate the enemy not admire their work!!"

She finished in the bath still in a furious mood and got dressed. She was glad she wasn't full vampire at the moment, that all the cravings and feelings that made her one was gone or the villagers might have been in trouble. Not a good way to run back into Kyle again. Even though she thought it would be interesting to meet up with as soon as possible and finish him off quick. The problem was that she would be badly out numbered and she knew when a right time to fight was and when it wasn't. She plopped down on her bed stared up at the ceiling. "This is going to be very hard to do..." She sighed heavily and petted Zilla on the head, who was asleep on the pillow. "I don't think I will back in two months like I promised Hiro." She closed her eyes and ended up falling asleep a little while later while she was trying to think of a plan.

I hoped you enjoyed chapter 2. Please tell me what you thought about it and if anything has to be changed. R&R
