Ray-Roy had just stepped out onto the Sanctuary's roof to find Vendetta when he saw something that made him stop. Another vampire, his one male, had his hands on Vendetta's waist, his lips on hers. The Texan realized his jaw was hanging open. Then he felt rage well up inside of him and the next thing he knew he was grabbing the male vampire and dragging him off Vendetta. He punched him as hard as he could in the face.
Caelan stumbled back and Ray-Roy pressed him further. He managed to get in a couple more punches before fingers closed around his wrist.
"What the heck do you think you're doing?" Vendetta snapped as she kept him from hitting Caelan. "He's a vampire! You don't stand a chance!"
Before Ray-Roy could respond, Caelan punched him in the face. He fell backwards. The vampire was faster than Ray-Roy had anticipated and the next thing the Texan knew he was being thrown around the place. He hit the ground and rolled then bounced.
Caelan grabbed him by the throat and slammed him into the door. His face was only a couple centimeters from his. "Who are you?" Caelan snarled.
Ray-Roy sank backwards, the wall closing around Caelan's hand. The Texan could hear him snarling in anger and Ray-Roy re-emerged from further down. Vendetta was watching everything in silence from where she stood off to the side. Ray-Roy wasn't sure if she thought he was extremely stupid or brave or if she just didn't care. Probably the third.
He ran at Caelan and rained punches down on the trapped vampire, making him hiss and snarl. Suddenly, Caelan wrenched his hand out of the wall. He tackled Ray-Roy and they went rolling, the vampire hissed in his ear. Ray-Roy kicked him off and took out his straight razor. He slashed at the vampire's head but Caelan ducked so Ray-Roy went low. Caelan continued to dodge all the strikes. Ray-Roy continued to slice his razor, trying to get a hit. And then Caelan wasn't there anymore. Before Ray-Roy knew what was going on, he felt someone kick him in the back. He hit the ground hard and, before he could stop himself, fell over the edge.
Ray-Roy grabbed the edge at the last second with one flailing hand. He looked up as Caelan knelt down. The vampire growled. "Where ever I go," he said. "Every time I fall in love with someone, there is always someone in the way. Whether it's my own kind, or boyfriend, or a jealous crush. Now, I've finally found someone who shares this curse of eternal life and I'm not going to let some annoying Texan get in the way."
Ray-Roy looked at Caelan for a moment then grinned. "And I ain't gonna let the end of me be some sad, emo vamp that just sits around all day moanin' bout his girl problems. And by the way, did you know that Texas is 286,581 square miles, it's the largest contiguous state and it's the second most popular."
Caelan blinked. "And this concerns me because?"
"This concerns ya, because ya don't mess with Texas." With that, Ray-Roy took his razor and stabbed it through the hand Caelan had on the edge.
Caelan roared in pain. He wrenched his hand back and as he fell away swearing, Ray-Roy pulled himself up. Ray-Roy went to stab Caelan again but Caelan snarled ran at him. The next thing Ray-Roy knew, he was falling off the roof.
The ground knocked the wind out of his lungs and Ray-Roy cried out as he felt some of his ribs break. He tried to sit up and saw Caelan landing in a crouch a few feet away. He pulled back his lips to reveal his jagged fangs.
Ray-Roy had his arm pressed against his middle, trying to breathe. He glanced back and saw his straight razor sitting in the grass about ten feet away. He considered making a dash for the weapon but he knew that Caelan would be on him in an instant. He looked back as Caelan lunged.
Ray-Roy threw himself sideways, the vampire landing where he had been a second before. He rolled away again as Caelan jumped at him again and again. Ray-Roy looked over to his razor and saw it only a few feet away.
He reached for it, the weapon just out of his reach. Caelan continued to growl and Ray-Roy knew he was moving in for the kill. He glanced up and saw the vampire getting ready to jump. At the last second, Ray-Roy grabbed the razor and slashed.
A loud screech greeted the motion and Ray-Roy looked up, realizing he had gotten him right across the chest.
Caelan glared at him, hatred smoldered in his dark eyes. Ray-Roy went to follow up the attack but Caelan grabbed the blade. The vampire's eyes widened as the white-hot pain rushed through him. Ray-Roy ripped the bladed out of his hand, completely slashing open his palm. Caelan screamed in pain as his blood rushed out, splashing onto the grass in a steady stream.
Ray-Roy grinned but that grin was quickly taken away as Caelan swatted the straight razor out of his hand. He grabbed Ray-Roy's jacket and brought him up to him as his fangs sank into his neck.
And then a fist crashed into Caelan, throwing him backwards to the ground. Dusk blurred and then he was slamming Caelan into a building.
"That's for kissing my daughter," Dusk said.
Caelan fell to the ground. He blinked up at Dusk in shock. "Daughter?"
Dusk kicked him in the chin. Caelan didn't get up. Ray-Roy went to stand up but fell back down with a gasp. He suddenly couldn't breathe and he lurched over as he coughed up blood. His other hand went to his neck and he felt the jagged puncture wounds, still trickling blood.
Uh oh.
Then he blacked out.
The fight on the rooftop was for you Dexter Jackson. XD
REVIEW! :)
