"Well this is just great, how do you expect us to find Theon with this guy with us? I'm sorry I just don't trust the man you know; never know when he might just think, oo might kill him while he's not watching; then bam sword in my chest." I complained doing all the actions as I went along.

Ember smiled at me and sat down on the edge of the chair in the shabby barn that we had broke into for cover from the sun.

"Don't worry so much, I will protect you when he feels the need to turn on us. Right now he is sleeping so you have nothing to worry about. How are you feeling?" she asked placing the palm of her hand on my cheek.

I found my feelings for her growing which can't be good considering she was choosing death after all this.

"Stronger is the first thing that comes to mind, oh and faster but I'm still not hungry like my sister always was." i replied removing her hand from my face.

"You will and when you do you will realise that our race ended is the only way." She ended walking away into the shadows.

We had been following Theon's trail for two days now and we were very close. Ember believed Theon had turned two more by this time but Theon was a lot more organized than she thought.

"I think now would be the time to set off, I don't think your man will burn much in this, do you?" hunter asked packing up all his gear.

Ember glided over to him and growled in his face. She sounded very angry at his remark.

"No I do not think that will be a good idea and you know it won't. Don't worry human you will have your moment so leave the comments out or I will kill you were you stand and I will find a new hunter!" she ended running out into the twilight.

I stood shocked as to what had just been said, maybe her feelings are mutual.

I laughed out loud at hunter as his face grew redder.

"Maybe you should be quiet next time."

"Be quiet vampire or I will take you both out now."

"Yeah considering she has ran faster than lightening away from you. Maybe me and you should have it out here and now." I taunted moving closer to him.

He turned to me and pulled out his favourite weapon (the sword).

"Fine by me"

He swung his sword to cut up my chest but I was faster than him and I moved so that I was placed behind him with his own sword at his throat.

"You don't realise what I would give to finish you off right now but as it goes, we need you so I will let go and give you your sword and you will walk away." And I did just that.

We had been walking for quite some time now and the trail was becoming stronger which meant we were closer. And by the smell of the trail there was way more than any two new ones.

Ember stopped fast and placed her hand on my chest.

"In there. A mother with her two children, they're teasing the mother, we must stop them now." Ember said not breaking eye contact with the house.

"How many are there Ember, I'm not running in there with no knowledge of their numbers." Hunter asked walking in front of her.

She looked deep in his eyes, which I guessed was her trying to decide whether she should tell him the truth or not.

She chose truth. "Four, not including Theon, You think you could take out at least two?" she asked.

He nodded and disappeared around the side of the house. I ran in the opposite direction and to the left of the house. There I perched myself on the railings of the side wooded patio. I peered through the window only to find Theon feeding on the children's mother. That I would not stand for. I threw myself through the window and grabbed his face from the women. As I turned to find hunter, a hand flew to my face and sent me flying across the room. I stood fast and looked my attacker in the eyes. It was a small male with red hair and very black eyes. Body build was alright for a man his size.

I ran up to him and grabbed him to the floor; we struggled for a bit as my hand searched the floor for the stake that was in my coat pocket. When I finally found it, the man was nearly free but not that free as I shoved the stake into his heart.

I moved from his limped body as quickly as I could as another vampire flew over the top of me crashing into Theon. I looked over from where the vampire came from and Ember stood up looking bloodied and excited. Her eyes gleamed with the violence with the smell of blood mixed.

Theon moved fast so he was stood facing Ember in what could only be described as a fight to the death.

"This time Theon you die and it is for my father and my mother." She yelled before running up to him.

I looked over to Hunter, who was just finishing off the last vampire and getting the poor family out of the building.

When I turned back to Ember; she was already fighting Theon and she was winning by the look of things. Her strength had been growing for days but I just didn't realise how much.

Theon didn't stand a chance, not this time and it wasn't until he screamed so loud that glass could of shattered that I noticed that Ember had done it. She had killed the one vampire we had been trying to kill for however long it had been.

His body fell to the ground with a loud thud and stayed there motionless.

Ember stood not moving. I walked over to her and placed my hand on her shoulder but as I did that she fell backwards into my arms. Theon had got her to but not so deep that it would kill her instantly.

I sat back with her lying weakly in my arms.

"Should I pull it out?" I asked her.

"No you I want you to push it in. Its over Keaton I will not change my mind no matter what the new circumstances are."

I felt hunter's presence near and I knew he had come to finish her off.

"What are the new circumstances?" I asked looking into her weak eyes.

"I think you no fine well what they are. Now push it in Keaton and if you had any of your soul left you would let Hunter do the same to you." she said holding my eyes with hers.

Hunter was closing in on me and I didn't like it. I could feel instinct kicking in, maybe the bad part of me, and the part that Ember hated in Theon. But I couldn't help it, I was losing the girl that I had come to like and a common enemy wanted her dead. So I scooped her up in my arms and turned to him.

"there is no way you are going to kill us, we may be the last vampires on the planet but we are the good ones and we have every right to live then you humans do." shouted moving slowly backwards away from hunter.

"No matter where you run Keaton I will find you as well as the other hunters the still live to keep you mythical things off this planet."

I was beginning to get confused. I looked down at Ember and I knew that she knew what I had got confused about.

"Yes Keaton there are more than just vampires out there and we are the only two left of our kind that is why there is only one hunter on us. We are a weak race and we should just end here and now."

Anger began to rise inside me. No way was I going to be the last vampire not until my death.

"Sorry to disappoint you hunter but you will have to live up to your name because I refuse to die." I ended as I turned and ran into the darkness with Ember in my arms.

This was no way the end of the vampires and I intended on showing the world just that.
