This is in Farren's point of view, btw.
Where was she?
My eyes flitted around the alley, just to make sure that some idiot level E didn't sneak up on me and kill me.
"Oi, Farren. Where's your sis?" Came an aroggant voice from behind me.
"That's none of your fucking business Raven." I snarled looking right into his red eyes.
Where the hell was she? Hannah said she'd meet me and the group here after she'd fed, but there was no sign of her. She'd been gone for hours.
"I say we go. If she's dead, there isn't any need to keep waiting, and if she's alive, she'll eventually find us." He said, all matter of fact, shaking his long black hair out of his eyes..
"You need to shut that bloody trap of yours Raven." Keo said from his side of the alley. "You let it wag too much."
"No one asked for your opinion." Raven growled.
God, moody much?
"At least I'm not the one who wants to leave one of our group behind!" Keo growled back, hid blonde hair seemingly out of place. I mean, who's ever heard of a blonde vampire?
They started walking towards each other, claws lengthening.
I stepped between them.
"Would both of you SHUT THE HELL UP?" I snarled, "Quit it, seriously. You're getting on my nerves."
"It ain't my fault. That asshole over there is firing me up." Keo muttered.
"It isn't my fault you're so built up on testosterone!" Raven seethed.
"BOTH of you, shut up." I rubbed my temples, "Don't make me kill you."
"Raven has a point though." Came a quiet whisper next to the bins. "If she's dead, we're just wasting our time waiting."
"She's not dead." I snarled at Drake.
"If she is though?"
"She isn't!" I shouted, lunging at him.
He jumped out of the way.
"Farren, don't lose control, think, fight it and use your logic." His arms were around me, gently but firmly holding my squirming body.
"Let me go!" I growled. But he didn't, and slowly slowly, I calmed down.
"She isn't dead though." I said, when he finally let me go. "Hannah's only delayed."
That's when I heard the gunshot.
My ears pricked up, and I immeadiently went running to that sound.
"I think we found the cause of the delay." I heard Raven mutter next to me.
"Just shutup and run." Keo said, on my other flank.
Drake was a step behind me.
Please, let her be alright. Please, please. There wasn't any use praying to God, He'd just flick it back at my face. It's like he'd answer some 17 year old level Es prayer, right?
How far had she run? I thought, panting. She must have fled to China or something.
That's when I heard the second gunshot.
I didn't know, but I just got this feeling that something inside of me died.L ike a light went out, and left me in darkness.
But I kept on running, pushed myself harder then the rest, till I was far ahead of them, even when they called to wait up, I didn't pay attention. I just ran.
Ran and ran and ran.
I was a machine, the only thing I could hear was my laboured breathing, as I flitted past building after building, the moon's reflection bouncing off white surfaces around me, making me feel as if Everything wasn't real.
Suddenly, I stopped running. There in the corner, something golden in a pile of ashes caught my eye.
"No. Nonononono." I whispered hoarsly as I slowly crossed the road and into the dark alley.
Dropping on my knees, I gently sifted through the ashes.
My fingers felt something hard, and I picked it up and brought it to my face,my hand shaking.
It was the other half of our ring.
The ring that joined mine to resemble a swirl of gold.
The same half of the ring that I had, on my necklace, on my neck.
The same half that we swore to never take off, always.
The same one our mother gave us, before she dissapeared.
The same one that my sister had on her neck, the last time I saw her.
It was right here, in this pile of ashes.
Tears slipped down my face. For a few moments, I sat, staring at the ring and greiving her loss.
I slowly got up, and fell into a blind rage.
I transformed there and then into my level E form, clawing at my face, at the walls, ripping apart the t-shirt and jeans I found next to my sisters ashes.
Correction, my DEAD twin sister's ashes.
"Is there anyone there?" Came a call from the opening of the alley, I could make out a man.
I roared and jumped onto him, pulling him, screaming, deeper into the alley.
"Help! Somebody, help me!" He screamed.
His voice was annoying me, so I stuffed my hand deep into his throat, my claws ripping out his voice box. I threw it to the side, and laughed as he made gurgling sounds, spewing blood everywhere.
Blood, flowing out of his mouth.
My teeth peirced his throat, and blood spurted into my mouth.
I drank and drank and drank. After a while, he stopped squirming and gurgling, and went limp.
I chucked his dead dry body to the side.
Staggering up, I sharply turned to see Drake, Raven and Keo, standing there, shocked.
I screamed at them, and ran at Zane, ready to claw out his eyes.
My mind was clouded. With my level E self, and my hate and anger towards Hannah's death.
"Farren." I heard a voice whisper in my ear, and arms slipped around my waist.
"Farren, please." He whispered again.
It was bringing me back.
That's what worked. Human displays of affection battled the level E side in us, and the human side won. love and affection, that's what brought us back from the other side.
But, I was under the influence of hate too strongly, and battled against Drakes's hold, shredding his pant leg.
"Farren, listen to me!" He growled, turning me around and looking straight into my eyes.
"Let go of me!" I snarled, getting my hand free and about to scratch off his face.
Then he kissed me.
And I melted.
Lost in bliss.
But a voice in my head teased me, like it was the level E side of me, trying to get me angry again.
What about Hannah? Are you just going to forget about her and fall in love?
No.
I wasn't.
I pulled back, to Drakes surprise, and wpied my mouth, hoping to get that tingling sensation off my lips.
Raven and Keo were looking at each other pointedly.
"If you ever do that again, I will kill you." I whispered dangerously to Drake.
He looked embarassed, and rubbed the back of his head, looking away.
Raven and Keo were snickering at him.
"S-sorry." he muttered.
I was in human form again, and wished i was still lost in anger.
Now, I felt the pain and greif of a human, as the wind blew my sisters ashes away.
"Did you find Hannah?" Raven asked, looking around.
"Yeah." Came my hoarse reply. "She's right there." I gestured to the pile of ash that was getting smaller as the ashes were blown away.
"I'm sorry, Farren." Keo slid his arm around my neck.
"I'm sorry too." I whispered back.
I'm really, really, sorry.
