Amdis POV

I walked to my room in the castle. It was on the third floor, adjacent to Heidi's room. Over the years, we had become quite good friends. We had a lot in common. We didn't know much if not anything about our human lives, we were beautiful, (even more so than most vampires) we both had the job of fishing, and we both had a power to do with the mind. Yes, her power was more powerful, considering it was mind control. Mine looked like a parlor trick compared to what she could do.

My room wasn't the most elaborately decorated, but it suited me. The walls were paneled in dark mahogany wood, and the bedspread was a dark red color that matched the walls. The curtains were the same color as the bed. But the floor was a pure white. It contrasted the room in an odd way, but I liked it. I really didn't need the bed, but I liked to lie on it and just think... or listen to what others are thinking.

Truthfully, I hated my power. I heard so much more than what I was meant to. Yes, sometimes that was good, but it got annoying. Which is why I was so glad that I could turn it off. Well, recently I could. Powers seemed to intensify over time, which is what mine did. For over 360 years of hearing thoughts constantly, I received a bit of peace and quiet. Not that I hadn't received peace and quiet here before. Everyone lived a solitary life here, not much interaction. I was lucky to even have Heidi for a friend.

The sole suitcase that I owned was in the corner. Ready to go whenever I needed it. I put the clothes that would be suitable for this mission. The things I was bringing wouldn't be any... fishing clothes. Maybe I could give those to Heidi. We were about the same height, and size. She had been admiring the sea green top...

"Knock, knock." I turned. Heidi was standing in the doorway, leaning against the door frame. "Hey. I heard that you were leaving for a 'long-term' assignment."

"I am. I don't know why I'm going. It's not my sort of thing." I smiled. This was the opposite of what I was used to doing. How am I supposed to learn how to spy on these people? "While I'm gone, you can wear any of these clothes. I doubt by the time that I get back that they will be in style, anyway."

"Thanks. We'll have to go to Milan when you get back. We're going to be in a dire need for a shopping trip." She came over to me, and unexpectedly, gave me a brief hug, which I returned. "I'm really going to miss you. It's dead boring when you're gone." I knew what she meant. Whenever either of us went on a fishing trip, the other was in a state of tedium.

"I'm going to miss you too. I wish I didn't have to go so soon, but if I don't, someone is going to come up here." I said, regretfully.

I grabbed my luggage, and seeing that she had left the room, walked out of the room.

Little did I know that this was going to be the last time I would set foot in it.

Here's how it's going to be from now on, if you review, I will review on of your stories. Doesn't everyone love getting reviews? Well, review, and I'll review yours! So, PLEASE
