A/N: This is my first fanfic, so please review and tell me if I should continue with the story =D Thanks
Isis slowly lifted herself from the human's throat and wiped away the blood left on her mouth. The vermin was dead; she had practically sucked him dry. Not that she cared.
She brushed some leaves off of her leather pants and looked down at the dead human.
Isis was stunningly beautiful; there was no question about it. Her hair was a dazzling golden color that looked inhumanly supernatural. Her eyes shone an emerald green and her pale skin made her look like a goddess. She was graceful, fast, sleek and unmerciful --- she was a vampire.
Three quarters vampire anyways, she was said to have some witch blood in her. With one last disgusted look at the human Isis ran off into the dark night.
* * *
"What's the password?" A husky voice came from the metal door.
"There is no password idiot, let me in," Isis hissed.
A light chuckle came from behind the door. A click was heard and the door was pushed open. Isis sniffed in annoyance and pushed past the boy who had been talking to her, Duke. Duke was an arrogant shape shifter, or in Isis's opinion he was arrogant. He thought very highly of himself because he was so bulked up.
"Where have you been out all night?" Duke asked, following Isis down the dark corridor.
"None if your business," Isis muttered, taking faster steps. She rounded a corner and found herself in the only lighted room in the warehouse. It was filled with moth eaten couches and a TV that only had two channels.
On one of the couches sat Justine. Justine was a Harman witch; the blood ran in her veins true and strong, you could easily tell by the look of her violet eyes. Justine had hair as black as the night and eyes as blue as a deep, deep ocean. Isis always liked Justine, she'd known her for a while, they were a weird combination, witch and vampire, but it never bothered them before.
But there was one thing that bothered Isis immensely.
People were saying that the Soulmate principle was back, that the Old Powers were waking.
Isis didn't like this. She didn't believe in love, never did. Her parents had been killed when she had been thirteen, by vampire hunters, but that's not what upset Isis the worst, what upset her was that they had been killed by vampire vampire hunters. Stupid vampires, didn't they realize that humans were the vermin, not there own kind?
Anyways, the fact was that Duke and Justine? They were Soulmates. Not that Isis believed it. She couldn't believe it, because if she did, it could happen to her.
"Welcome back Isis, what have you been up to?" Justine asked, giving her a warm smile.
"Just a little game, keeping myself busy," Isis shrugged, sitting down on one of the couches.
Duke went over and sat beside Justine, putting his arm around her. A violent shudder went through Isis and she turned away. She didn't have to see that.
She slowly started taking off her leather gloves, gloves that she used when handling weapons. Not that she needed them; it just made her feel more protected and more invincible. She shrugged off her leather jacket and gathered up her golden hair, pulling it into a ponytail.
"What have you two been up to?" Isis inquired as she pulled off her boots. She had owned the same pair of boots for three years; they still fit her, but were not in the same physical condition they had been when she was fourteen.
"I've been practicing on some spells, no such luck," Justine said, looking distressed.
Justine was convinced that one day she would come up with her own spell a spell that she herself had created and that didn't come from any other witch. For the past three years, no such luck. She was determined to live up to her name which meant "powerful sorcerer"
"And you, dog?" Isis practically growled to Duke.
Isis saw Justine look frustrated, she hated when Isis called Duke a dog. But it was true. In every sense it was.
"Aw, come on, lighten up," Duke cried looking at Isis with wild eyes.
"Oh, no, don't you dare, I'll kill you!" Isis shouted, practically reading Dukes mind.
"Too late," he cried. And then it happened. Duke's human form started changing and moulding into something different. His eyes became smaller, his nose changed shape, and his body started hunching over and his arms and legs shortened slightly. He began sprouting hair all over his face and suddenly there was a dog the size of a horse standing on all fours in front of her, with his tongue sticking out on the left side of his mouth and drool falling on the cement flooring.
"Don't you dare, don't you…"
Duke wildly leaped onto Isis and her screams slowly turned into laughter as he started licking her face.
* * *
That night Isis awoke with a deep thirsty hunger. Glancing over at Justine and Duke she saw that they were both in a deep sleep.
Isis glanced over at the clock, it read six AM exactly. Not too early for a quick drink. Isis had never been one to control her thirst for blood, and she wasn't going to try and stop it now. Leaping up from the couch Isis pulled on all her gear --- her boots, tucking her leather pants in them, her leather gloves were pulled on as well as her leather jacket. Isis ran down the dark corridor of the abounded warehouse and threw the metal door open, running into the still dark forest.
She leaped from tree to tree, not caring that the wood could kill her, it felt good. Isis finally reached a road and scurried into a dark alley. She hid behind a fence, concealing the silhouette of her image that would have been projected onto the road.
Suddenly on the far side of the alley Isis heard a sound that no human would be able to hear from that far away. A man was walking out of his back door. Ah, my breakfast, she thought.
She ran silently down the alley, hiding again behind a fence, waiting for the man to turn around…and then she pounced.
The man looked startled and horrified all at once, in fact he wasn't even a man, at all, he looked about seventeen, with brown hair, brown eyes, very ordinary, but what happened next was not ordinary at all.
An electrical current seemed to go through Isis as she grabbed the boys arm and her eyes went wide. A deep haze seemed to fill her eyes and she was frozen on the spot. The boy looked equally as startled and Isis felt like her legs were going to give out any second.
"No...No…."
