-Sweet Night

Hell literally broke in the house at the moment Gillian communicated the fact that the Redfern girls were suddenly gone. Ash had grabbed her by her small and fragile shoulders just as a tin gasp left her mouth, "What do you mean with gone Gillian?" Ash half yelled in her face. Her heart started rushing scared as his fangs started showing, a violent shiver took over her and tears filled her eyes "Th-they are gone sir" she answered in a tiny voice. Ash let go of her and turned to look at Quinn who had been awfully quiet the whole time. Gillian's legs gave up and she found herself on the floor breathing deeply trying to catch up her breath.

"They cannot just be gone" Ash mumbled lost in thought. He looked at Quinn hoping to find an answer but disappointment took over him as he realized that Quinn had lost his smile and was now frowning lost in thought. "Have you looked everywhere?" Ash said turning to face Gillian who was silently crying. She couldn't find her voice to answer and simply nodded. Ash sighed heavily and grabbed the girl again lifting her to look right into her eyes "What about my great aunt?" he screamed in the girls face angrily. A sob came out from Gillian's mouth as her eyes showed how much panic she was feeling. Ash shook her once again sharply but she only sobbed harder and shook her head.

"Let go of her Ash" a voice behind him said. He ignored it and looked into the girls mind "Ash, let the girl go" the voice repeated slowly. Ash ignored it and went deeper on the girl's mind, the girl was struggling to get free from him but his hold on her was strong, he had to find out where were his sisters, he had to do it. "Ash! Let go of Gillian NOW!" the voice behind him said with authority. He let her go; she fell to the ground hard, and hissed to his aunt. "You!" he said angrily "All this is your fault! You let them go ignoring the fact that they are too young!" he yelled. Mrs. Opal shook her head and faced her nephew "This is not my fault Ash. The girls wanted to go because they didn't want to live the life they were living" she said calmly. Ash growled loudly sending shivers to Gillian's body "You have send them to their dead's door! This is a disaster!"

"Maybe is not" Quinn said for the first time. Ash turned to face Quinn as if he was mad, but Quinn was calmly leaning against the door's frame. "Maybe this is exactly what we needed Ash" he said checking his nails. Ash looked at Quinn confused "Explain yourself Quinn" he said. Quinn looked at him with a mad smile playing on his red lips "Think about it, with your sisters gone, who can possible stop you from doing whatever you need to do to the vermin upstairs?" Ash smiled after a second thought, the idea of feeding whenever he felt like it, or the idea of satisfy his needs without going out searching for a stupid vermin, or just having his room back felt nice indeed.

"I will" his aunt's voice broke the spell he had been under "You won't touch that girl as long as I'm here Ash Redfern and neither will you John Quinn" she said sharply. Both boys exchanged looks before sharing a grin and storming out of the room leaving both women breathless.

"Forget about what she said, she is one of them… she is probably trying to confuse us" David said closing his eyes exhausted. Eric had been thinking all night about the blond witch, her eyes had been sincere and she looked truly worried for them, the memory had been hunting him down the whole night. "What if she wasn't lying David?" he said looking at his friend serious "What if she is trying to help us?" Eric was sure the girl meant no harm for them, he had seen it in her eyes, those beautiful eyes that had called his attention the moment he met them. "And what if she is not?" David yelled tired "Eric! We are talking about Quinn! He was probably the one who sent her!"

"Then why would she risk it David?" Eric yelled back "we don't know anything about her" he was determine to win this argument, he was sure. "Exactly! We don't know her Eric!" David exclaimed "We do not know if she is one of us, which she probably is not"

"You don't know that David" Eric said sitting down "She came all the way down here to tell us about the girl, risking her own safety"

"Eric! She might be tricking us!" David said standing up "and she is a Harman for God's sake!"

"And I'm a Ross and you are a Blackburn David, but that doesn't mean anything!" Eric said tiredly. David sighed deeply and shook his head sitting down again "I just want to get out of here Eric" Eric sighed and nodded "so do I David, but the girl might be right, Quinn probably knows the girl is not one of us, he probably is just holding her here for torture…"

"So, are you telling me that Quinn now is into torturing random girls in the streets?" David said mocking him. Eric shook his head "I never said it was to torture her… He will of course torture her, but his aim is not exactly that girl…"

"Then who Eric?" David said looking at his friend serious. Eric looked back at David and sighed deeply "To torture us of course…"

"Will you tell Hunter about my sisters?" Ash asked as they turned in a corner. Quinn looked at him calmly "You don' want me to do it, I can feel it" he said raising an eyebrow. Ash sighed and looked away "They are my sisters after all Quinn, they are ignorant and naïve". Quinn chuckled bitterly "I understand this is not their fault Ash, reason why I believe your aunt should be held as the responsible" he said looking at the corridor in front of them.

"My great-aunt" Ash automatically corrected. Quinn snorted "Same thing Ash, her stupid ideas have influenced your sisters mocking the Redfern name".

"My aunt did not get those ideas from her own head, it was husband the one who place them there and I must recall the fact that he was not a Redfern" Ash said calmly.

"Your uncle was a disgrace of vampire and your aunt is as well, the difference is that we cannot prove it yet" Quinn said with vermin in his voice. Ash chuckled and looked at Quinn "What do you have against my great aunt Quinn? I know she is a pain in the ass, but why do you hate her so bad?" Quinn frowned and his eyes darkened even more before answering "It is her fault the fact your sisters have ran away on the first place" Before Ash could say anything else the door flew open reveling a beautiful girl. Her long and smooth hair was as dark as ink as his face seemed to be serene and cold as a princess, an ice princess.

"Lilly!" Quinn exclaimed surprised "I was not expecting to see you here" Lilly looked at him and then she turned to Ash "How is life Ash?" she said winking. Ash grinned and answered calmly "boring as usual, yours?" Lilly chuckled softly "about to get excited, right Quinn?" she said turning to face him. Quinn mentally slapped himself remembering why Lilly was looking for him "I lost track of time Lilly, my apologies! Shall we go?" he asked smiling that crazy smile of him.

"Where are you going?" Ash asked bored. Lilly smiled madly and let out a small laugh "To the club, Quinn and I have some business down there". Quinn shook his head grinning madly; his dark black eyes had some light Ash rarely saw. Quinn held the door open for Lilly and before he left, he turned to look at Ash "I won't inform Hunter just yet Ash, but I will eventually" he said before closing the door behind him.

"Us?" David asked surprised, Eric nodded softly and carefully as if he was analyzing something lost in thought "I get he will torture us even more Eric but I don't get the role of the girl in all this" David said frowning.

Eric didn't look at him, his mind was far away from that dark and cold cell, his mind was slowly placing all the pieces of this mad puzzle and the picture was coming clearer and clearer every time. "We know the girl is not one of us, Quinn will hold us responsible for her dead anyways. He doesn't care if the girl is one of us or not, if she dies, it would have been for our fault, it will weigh in our conscience and he knows it" Eric said slowly. David stared at his friend slowly taking what he had just said in.

A sudden noise made them jump and they moved towards the darkness away from the doors. One of the guards came in with carrying a body. Both boys stared quietly following the guard's steps one by one. He opened the door and threw the body inside before leaving as quietly as he had come. David threw Eric a look and slowly they approached the body lying motionless. Eric kneeled next to it caressing the long red curly hair from the girl's face. Her face was ice cold and small scratches covered her lovely face. "She is cold" Eric said softly to David. David grabbed carefully the girl's wrist checking her pulse "Her pulse is weak Eric but she is certainly human"

Eric nodded "she is not the same girl" he said sighing heavily. David gave him a questioning look but Eric shook his head "For a moment I thought the guard was bringing the girl's body as a warning" David nodded slowly realizing what Eric had meant. "Here, let's move it away from the doors Eric, She is quiet small so it won't be hard" He said lifting the girl carefully. Eric looked as his friend lift the girl and moved her towards the wall, the weak light coming from the small window reflected on the girls face, Eric smiled "She reminds me of a pixie" he said softly sitting down next to the girl. David smiled back weakly and taking off his jacket he placed it over the girl "this should keep her warm for now… It is not much but it's all we have" he said before sitting down to the other side of the girl closing his eyes.

"I wonder what she is doing here…" Eric mumbled before falling asleep.

Mrs. Opal knocked softly and waited for the girl to open the door. After a few seconds, she was able to hear softly steps walking closer to the door and hesitating in front of it; she took a deep breath and waited. Mary-Lynnette opened the door slowly surprised and scared at the same time, of course she hadn't expected anyone to actually knock her door.

"Hello dear" Mrs. Opal said smiling warmly "May I come in?" Mary-Lynnette nodded carefully and stepped aside to let the old woman in. She waited until Mary-Lynnette had closed the door before turning to look at her. The girl was barefoot and the windows were widely open, surely she had been looking outside the balcony. Mary-Lynnette looked at her awkwardly and cleared her throat. Mrs. Opal smiled and sat on her nephew's bed "You must be wondering what I am doing here" she said carefully analyzing the girl's reaction. Mary-Lynnette nodded softly and remained quiet. "Well, I'm here to inform you that my nieces are gone and I don't know when are they are coming back or if they are coming back at all" Mary-Lynnette frowned and hugged herself, she had liked the brunette girl and now she was not going to be around anymore. "So, since none of them is going to be around" Mrs. Opal continued "I will personally take care of you while you are in the house, from now on you are my responsibility" Mary-Lynnette nodded softly and looked away towards the balcony. Mrs. Opal sighed deeply "If there is anything I could do for you child…"

"I want to go, I want to leave this place" Mary-Lynnette said on a roughly voice without looking at the woman in front of her. Mrs. Opal sighed once again "We all want to leave this place my dear, trust me" Mary-Lynnette didn't say anything and tears started filling her eyes, she quickly blinked them away, she was not going to let the lady see her crying, she was not going to let her see her as a weak human. "I know you want to go home honey, with your family" Mrs. Opal said warmly "But I cannot do that, however if there is anything else you need in order to make your stay more confortable please let me know". Mary-Lynnette nodded and looked down to her feet. Mrs. Opal sighed and stood up walking slowly towards the door "Oh! And Mary-Lynnette" she called one more time meeting Mary-Lynnette's gaze "Be careful with my nephew, he is still here. He was a little naughty boy when he was younger, and surely he grew up to be even worst honey, so be really careful with him" she said closing the door softly behind her.

The back hair girl had been watching them for hours. For a month now, she had been spying on this new club. Stupid and naïve young girls who couldn't quite understand that her lives were in danger or see what were in front of them seemed to be attacked towards this mysterious cub. She moved softly making sure she was still in the shadows. Her black outfit covered her all over; her black boots had special pockets to keep an emergency stake or silver knife, her jacket was anti bullets and holds her guns with silver bullets, her eyes were the only part of her body revealed.

A small creep in her back indicated her that she was not longer alone. She turned slowly and got ready to get out her stake. It was young boy, he is not older than me, she thought. But she shook the thought away; with them you couldn't be sure. They were parasites; they could stop ageing whenever they wanted but killing innocents. Her mum's memory came to her but she shook it away concentrating on what was in front of her. The boy was sitting there calmly, his eyes were closed and peaceful, his black dark hair looked smooth and soft, so perfect and at the same time so disgusting, she thought. Slowly she moved behind him and noticed his lips curled up on a smile that sent shivers throw her back. Looks like we have a mad one here. Carefully she lifted her stake and hit him hard knocking him down. She stood in front of him and slowly whispering "this kitten has claws" .
