Okay now what's going on with in the vault? :)
Shaunee:
Shaunee woke up in darkness she thought her eyes where closed but no there was only darkness no light at all.
"Shaunee" a voice said making her jump up hitting her head against something it grunts.
"Kalona?" she asks confused.
"Yes Neferet knocked you unconscious, we're locked in a titanium vault…I also think she dropped the building on us"
"What?!" Shaunee exclaims jumping to her feet.
"I heard an explosion and I defiantly felt it" his voice said in the darkness.
"Did the others get out?" she asked.
"I was a little busy being locked in a four foot thick titanium vault" he said Shaunee rolled her eyes at his sarcasm but as she couldn't see she heard his voice better was that fear in his voice?
"We'll get out don't worry, Thanatos will have the whole of Tulsa out there digging for us" she reassures him.
"I can't hear anything it's too thick" he says.
"We'll be fine" she says trying to assure them both.
"You don't know that, I've been trapped underground for centuries when it felt like an eternity as it is I have no idea how long we've been here" Shaunee swallows touching the back of her head dried blood is in her hair a small cut at the back of her head, it still hurt so it couldn't be more than a few hours old she held onto that.
"Can you see?" she asks him.
"Yes"
"Is it just me or am I blind?" she asks.
"Just you" he answers she scoffs at the off handed manner of which he said that and he laughs she joins him both trying to keep their spirits up.
"Can you get us out?' she asks.
"Maybe but like I said the building fell on us, a building worth of rubble will be blocking it I'm not that strong" he said the last part in contempt she feels around her for him hitting his arm.
"How big is this thing?" she asks.
"Four square feet I believe you'd call it" he answers after a few seconds not much room she thinks.
"I could use my element but it will burn the oxygen in here, hey wait how are we breathing?"
"There are small holes in the wall nothing beyond them but air is coming through them" Shaunee nods just because he can see her.
"Okay well it can't take to long for the rubble to be removed, they'll find the vault hopefully we'll feel or see it and I'll burn us out of this steel cage and you can bust open the door" Shaunee plans mostly to calm her nerves and to fill the darkness this blind feeling was awful she felt so sorry for Shaylin right now.
"Alright" Kalona agrees, Shaunee finds a wall and slides down to fill the silence they begin talking, it wasn't as if they had anything else to do. Shaunee pretty much told him her life story everything she'd never told anyone else even Erin, he as always broke down her defences without even trying Kalona talked too, Shaunee found herself going through millenniums of memories from the man sitting across from her in the darkness. They spoke about fears, friends, what made them laugh or cry what they hated and what they loved, they talked for who knows how long, it was all they could do until finally Shaunee fell asleep.
Shaunee woke up resting on the leg of Kalona one or both of them must have moved while she slept.
"Morning I guess not sure what time it is" she says.
"Morning Shaunee" he says they went back into silence talking every now and then about different things.
"If starvation doesn't kill me boredom is going to damn well try" she says a long time later Kalona smiles she can hear it in his voice.
"Now you see what I faced" he says, Shaunee had the same weird feeling coursing though her it was stronger today like a tingling all over her skin.
"Shaunee are you alright?" Kalona asked she'd forgot he could see her where she couldn't.
"I just feel weird" she says standing but leaning on the wall for support.
"Shaunee" he says softer god she must look bad to get that kind of tone from him of all people.
"I just…" she doesn't finish pain unlike any she'd ever felt burst into her skull worse than when she was marked, screaming she feel to her knees and then it stops the pain was gone someone was shaking her.
"Shaunee don't you dare die I forbid it" Kalona says Shaunee chuckles into his chest.
"You can't have everything you wish for but this time okay" she says Kalona holds her at arm's length.
"Thank Nyx I thought you…"
"Me to for a second" she admitted she'd completed the change she was now a vampire.
"What do they look like?" she asks him.
"Fire and light" he says with his finger he traced the pattern over her face and down to her shoulder it tingled where it went Shaunee fought the urge to shiver gods, why did he have this effect on her? Why did whenever they were together she feel completely safe, her mind drifted to Kramisha's poem was what her friends thought true? Was Kalona the winged immortal her soul mate? It couldn't be true but she also thought of Nyx telling her whatever she choice she would always love her did she mean she didn't mind her soul mate? Wait she was getting ahead of herself she took a step back from Kalona her thoughts in turmoil shaking her head she slid back to the ground tired she fell asleep.
Kalona:
Kalona watched Shaunee sleep wishing he could read her thoughts, wishing he knew why he cared so much, when he thought she was dying he felt like a piece of himself was going to be lost to which was ridiculous but true, when he saw her, her marks so beautiful he's breath had caught in his throat it almost chocked him, Kalona shock his head in the darkness he was getting attached to her it was clear he'd get over it, Shaunee stirred and his eyes went to her immediately he eyes opened with a snap trained on him but she couldn't see he stood she crouched her fangs out Kalona couldn't help but think how cute that was.
Suddenly she jumped throwing herself at him they hit a wall in the small space, Kalona though was stronger than her even with her vampire strength her eyes were fixed on his neck and he understood, she was a new vampire and needed blood he was the only thing around she didn't speak almost like she was still asleep but she was struggling against him to get as his throat, Kalona made the decision without knowing he had with one hand he held her off, the other he scratched his neck with his finger nail, blood came out they could both smell it she stopped fighting watching the blood, Kalona held her arms and drew her closer she looked at him then back at the blood suddenly unsure she looked so vulnerable, at that moment he swore none would ever harm her never.
Kalona put one arm around her back the other in her hair and gently pushed her head to him with a last look into his eyes she bit down on his neck, Kalona had never let any take his blood before darkness had taken it with pain, others had fought him bloody but never like this, neither was sure who was enjoying this more Shaunee moaned against his neck Kalona held her to him wrapping him arm around her waist to hold her closer, Shaunee to had wrapped her arms around his neck to get closer at this point it wasn't possible she was squished against him and she didn't care.
Shaunee:
Eventually her mind returned to her Shaunee was still taking his blood which was nothing like she'd ever tasted before it was like Ambrosia for the gods to her, Shaunee pulled her head from his neck taking a last lick to get what was let they were still connected tightly holding each other their breathing was loud in the darkness, Shaunee wasn't sure what to do let go and back away apologise and hope he didn't hate her was a good start but she found she couldn't do it she couldn't let go maybe it was the strength of being a vampire, the amazing taste of power in his blood but she held him as he held her their eyes met and for the first time she saw him which shouldn't be possible for a vampire but she was seeing him, his eyes and the desire that burned in them they kept their eyes locked even when their lips met. He tasted as good as his blood hot like fire their tongues danced with each other both moaning against each other gods was he a fantastic kisser hot, demanding like she was the only one in the world eventually their kissed slowed and Shaunee pulled her lips away not yet able to let him go she breathed heavily feeling what she hadn't before an imprint they'd imprinted.
