Thanks for the reviews!
After a few minutes of crying I realized that everyone had left giving Leon, Abel, and I some time alone.
"Why weren't your ears and tail out when we first meet you?"
Abel asked as I finally looked up at him.
"I was strong enough to keep them hidden. I guess my body finally just gave out, so I can't hide them until I recover my strength."
Abel just nodded.
Finally they helped me stand and gave me a tour of the Vatican, introducing me to people along the way.
After about an hour Caterina called us back to her office.
"Lilly. Do you have any fighting experience?"
"Yes Ma'am. I am one hell of a shot. But I'm not very good with hand to hand combat. However, I can turn just about anything into a weapon."
"Good, these two will need your experience."
"Excuse me?"
With a grin Caterina proceeded to tell us about a mission she wanted the three of us to go on. I was thoroughly confused by her terminology, what's a Methuselah?
Apparently we were going on some sort of rescue mission.
After being dismissed I followed Leon and Abel to get money and weapons, finally I asked them what a Methuselah was?
Leon laughed at me and Abel gave me an amused smile.
"Methuselah are vampires."
"Vampires are real?"
That made the guys stop walking, and stare at me.
Looking down embarrassed, Leon patted my head, and kept walking.
Finally we reached a door, the guys old me to wait outside while they did some paper work.
Concentrating on my ears I was trying to make them disappear.
Unfortunately, I was still too weak.
When the guys came out Leon threw a cape over my head.
"We need you to wear that whenever were not in the Vatican. Eventually you will be able to come and go as you please. Until then one of us will have to join you."
All I could do was nod, as I adjusted the hood over my ears.
After I finished packing I followed the guys to this giant ship.
Getting settled into my room, I felt the ship take off. Immediately I started looking for a restroom.
Finding one across from Abel's room. While I was empting my stomach I felt someone pulling my hair back. When I finished I looked behind me to see Abel with a serious look on his face.
"Are you ok Lilly?"
"Yeah. I get air sick really easily."
About the time I finished my sentence I turned back and threw up again.
Leaning against the wall, Abel rubbed my ears, trying to make me feel better.
With a small mew I looked up a Abel.
"Unless you want me to attack you Abel. Stop rubbing my ears."
Immediately he let go of my ears and gave me a curios look.
With a sigh I looked down embarrassed.
"My ears areā¦one of the most sensitive parts of my body. Let's jus leave it at that."
I panted from emptying my stomach, and the attention my ears just received.
Abel gave me a small smile and started asking me little questions to get my mind off of being sick.
Until I basically started dry heaving.
To which Abel rubbed my back.
With a groan I laid down on the floor.
Abel smiled at me and picked me up and took me back to my room.
He easily laid me down in my bed and turned to leave. I quickly grabbed his hand, turning around he smiled at me, and sat in the chair next me.
With a tired smile, I felt myself falling asleep.
When I woke up a few hours later I noticed that Abel was passed out half in the chair half on my bed.
I smiled and went back to sleep.
When I woke up again I was in a small cage with a pale man staring at me.
"What the hell happened?"
"That's easy my dear, my assistant took you off that plane and brought you here."
"Where's Abel and Leon?"
"They should be getting everything we need. We gave them a list of things t trade for you. And judging on how they look at you I would say that they will have no trouble trading for your life."
I stared at the man dumbfounded. What was he talking about? The way they look at me? What were they supposedly gonna trade for me? A government experiment gone wrong? A fox?
Feeling cold I looked down and realize that they had been ripped. Exposing random pars of my skin.
With a shudder I continued to glare at him. As he stood up and started walking towards me I noticed he was quiet handsome.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Cain."
For some reason I felt scared of him. I pressed myself against the bars of my cage, trying to get as far away from him as possible.
"Now, my little fox, let's have some fun. Shall we?"
I gulped and hissed at him.
"Oh, so you do have claws. Let's see how good you are with them."
You know the drill
