Yet again another chapter! Ive been wanting to post for ages but media C/W has taken up most of my time. My fellow Fan Fiction writer, FireWiotch and I left this pretty quickly...we wanted to get onto the good bit which will be the next chapter. So anyway, enjoy and let me know what you think!

The final Lycan still in the mansion had finally been slain. Tyler had blasted the thing against a wall while Elena had stabbed it through the heart with her silver dagger. Pogue and Caleb were resting after tackling a particularly nasty Lycan, they were breathless and covered in sweat. Reid was safely upstairs with Sarah and Kate tending to his wounds.

What was now praying on everyone's mind was that the party goers might now have all been bitten if not mutilated after the beasts fed off them.

Elena breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Tyler who smiled back. He walked over towards her and held her.

"We did it!" he cried. Caleb and Pogue then walked over.

"Hey guys, well done" Tyler said and hi-fived his friends

"Tyler" Whispered Elena suddenly. He turned to face her.

"Catch…" Using his vampyric powers he managed to catch her just in time. She had passed out cold.

"Elena!" urged Tyler, slightly tapping her face. Caleb and Pogue Knelt down beside the couple.

"Maybe it was too much for her?" guessed Caleb.

"Yeah dude, she'll be fine. Let's get her upstairs." Replied Pogue.

After nodding, Tyler picked up the limp figure and carried her upstairs to a room joining the one Reid was in.

"Something's not right, she shouldn't be like this. Perhaps she's ill, but it can't be possible, vampires are immune to illness" Tyler explained. He heard Elena stir.

"Hey you. You had me worried" he said softly with a smile.

"I don't know what's wrong, I keep feeling nauseous…" She trailed off looking puzzled.

Caleb then interrupted.

"I could try Using to see if I can find anything…after I ascended I discovered I could sense if anyone was suffering from illness and what was causing it. It's under control now though, but I can sense the virus that make you two become vampires…it sticks out like a soar thumb, really." He said looking up and down Tyler's body.

Tyler looked stunned.

"So when did you plan on telling us this Mr Mystery?" He said with a smile.

"Actually it slipped my mind" Caleb replied returning the smile. Walking over to Elena, his eyes turned as black as night.

"Just relax, okay?"

Elena nodded and lay back, closing her eyes.

Caleb placed both his hands over Elena's head and closed his eyes. He scanned around that area before moving downward. He continued down past her chest, then her abdomen then reaching her thighs. He paused for a moment, a confused look swept across his face. He moved his hands back up to her abdomen.

Tyler could feel his Using grow in intensity.

"What? What is it?" He asked urgently. Elena remained calm but her eyes were open and fixed on Caleb as if asking the same question.

"I'm not sure just yet." Replied Caleb. He had sensed something. It was small, very small in fact, but it was there and that was the cause of Elena's symptoms. He knew it.

He focused himself more on the tiny 'cause'. And then it became clear. His eyes shot open as he gasped. He had to be wrong, but there was no mistaking it.

"What?!?" asked Tyler with more urgency.

Caleb calmly continued to hover his hands over what he had found, his eyes once again closed.

"Have you two, um…you know?"

Tyler's eyes widened as far as they could possibly be widened and stared at Caleb.

"What are you saying?"

He knew what Caleb was going to say, but found himself not wanting to believe it.

"I'm saying she's not ill at all. I'm saying she's pregnant."

"WHAT?!" sitting up, Elena's voice was loud and shrill. "No, this can't be! No vampiress in our coven have ever conceived!"

Tyler didn't take much notice on Elena's words. He felt like his world had momentarily stopped. She was carrying his child and he was barely 18.

At this moment, Reid hobbled into the room to see what all the commotion was about. He hurt all over but he was already beginning to heal. However, when he got to the room Tyler was in, he had not expected that his best friend was about to become a father in the least.

Tyler turned to him; a smile slowly crept onto his face. Reid could see confusion and shock mixed with that smile. And who could blame him. Not exactly the best time to hear that sort of thing after ascending and blasting Lycans all night. That and the pain Reid was in didn't however; stop the blonde from being his old self.

"My Baby Boy's all grown up" He said in a mock teary tone, pretending to wipe away fake tears from under his eyes.

Tyler couldn't help but laugh at his friends' sarcasm. Yeah he had been bitten and become his 'enemy', but still he found strength to see his best friend. Tyler could feel his mood lightening.

"Yeah dude, I'm beating you on the 'mature' metre." He said sarcastically.

"Yeah, whatever, like I was ever mature" Reid replied wafting his hand at Tyler as if to dismiss the comment.

He smiled at Tyler whose face darkened.

"You do know what's going to happen don't you? There is no cure. No going back."

The words stung Reid like a thorn sticking in his side. He flinched at the mention of 'no cure' as Tyler walked up and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Yeah…So I get hairy now and again, big deal" Reid said with a shrug. He looked cool and confident but inside he was scared shitless. What if he couldn't turn back? Or if he turned on his friends? He didn't fancy the idea of being put down because he had gone on a rampage and killed Tyler, Caleb or Pogue…even someone else.

He shut the thoughts away and grabbed the hand still resting on his shoulder.

"You better make me the Godfather, otherwise I might have to kick your ass" He added jokingly.

"There'll be no ass kicking when I'm around, at least not after the baby's born" perked up Elena. She moved her legs off the bed and stood up.

"You" She said pointing at Reid

"Now, I don't like having the idea of you still being around. If it wasn't for Tyler I would have damn well killed you by now. Save you as well as me one hell of a pain in the neck. You're lucky I'm even letting you still associate with the others, if I had my way you would be gone, with your own kind. I may sound harsh, Mr Garwin, but you should understand the reason why I'm against letting you live." Indeed she was harsh, but no-one, not even Tyler challenged her.

"I understand," Reid replied calmly, who had now removed his hand from Tyler's and stared right at Elena.

"Yeah I know I'm a danger to everyone. The least I can do is take myself away from harming anyone. Chill, Dudette…I'm not gonna turn furry for another two nights right?" he said in mild defence.

"Relax, dude, she's just being cautious…you might be a little unpredictable at first which includes…"

Tyler said, barely having the time to finish before Reid butted in angrily.

"Unpredictable!" To which Tyler answered with;

"A short temper…and easily irritated" a sigh following.

Reid realised what he had just done, though he hadn't realised how powerful his temper had become. He placed a hand over his mouth for a moment with his eyes wide.

"Oooh, I'm sorry, yeah I see what you mean." He said with a chuckle and scratched his head. "This is gonna be, err, awkward at times. And yeah I realise I'm gonna have to be real careful…"

He trailed off with mixed thoughts.
