Chapter 9

Walking outside alone, I sat down in a patch of grass. I knew that if I went any further, it could anger the vampires inside. I could never be ready for something like this! No one could. I was a nervous mess just sitting still, so I began a daisy chain in the cool night air.

I hummed my favorite song to myself while I thought. I will always love Marko. I can't change fate, but if I choose not to be one of them, I will never find another true love. I don't want to kill, but I love Marko. I was so lost in thought, that I didn't hear as someone walked to me.

"That's very pretty, just like the one making it." I jumped at the sudden break in silence, and looked up to see the one and only Edgar Frog.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I scolded. Great, I'm going to scold other people like Marko does to me!

"You told me where you were moving tonight, and I thought I would come to formally apologize." He said, slightly taken aback at my tone.

"You shouldn't be here. Not tonight." I warned, getting to my feet and slowly backing away.

"Why? Is your boyfriend a vampire or jealous super villain or something?" He joked. Taking in the serious and slightly guilty look on my face, turned his expression into something awful.

"I just can't, Edgar." I looked down at my shoes. High heels. I had been hoping I could stop Paul from teasing me for being short if I was a little taller.

"Don't tell me you are dating a vampire?" He spat out at me, making me flinch.

"Edgar, I-"

"No! You're one too! Aren't you?" He all but yelled.

"No!" I said. Not yet, anyways. I added in my mind.

"Not yet. You're probably half or about to change. Am I wrong?" He gave me a look of pure hatred that gave me the chills. I never thought I would ever see him look or talk to me this way.

"No. I'm not even half yet." I half-whispered, hoping to change his mind about me. I looked down at my shoes again. I looked up after a second when he hadn't responded.

"I will come back and stake you. I don't care about my previous feelings. I will stake you and your vampire." He said. He then turned, and walked away.

I collapsed into the soft grass. What have I done? If I had said no to Marko, I could have loved Edgar back, and had the family that I always wanted. I just completely screwed that option up. Tears began to slowly roll down my cheeks.

"Your time is up. Max sent me to get you." Dwayne said, appearing at the entrance of the cave. I hid my face and wiped my tears before following him down.

"Have you made a decision young one?" Max said calmly as I tripped down the last little bit of rock into the dimly lit cave.

"I have. I have decided that this is my fate and I am following it." I said firmly, looking him directly in the eye.

"You are brave. Even for a girl of your size and youth." He said, grinning.

"Come here Kitty." I looked and saw Marko standing on a small platform made of a rock. That's new. I thought to myself as I made my way over to him. I let him guide me up to him, and stood right in front of him.

"To become a vampire, you must drink the sire's blood." He handed me an unfamiliar ornate wine bottle. If I didn't know what was in it, I may have mistaken it for red wine or Hawaiian Punch. I took it and lifted it to my lips, taking in the strangely sweet and metallic taste.

I was reluctant and skeptical at first, but then greedily began to drink. Once I had my fill, David took the bottle and set it back on a shelf.

"You are now an official half-vampire. The next step into the life you have chosen is to accept your mate, and to have him to accept you." Max said importantly. I looked towards Marko, who took one of my hands.

"How does this shit go down?" I whispered, leaning towards Marko and causing an eruption of laughter to ring out from the everyone except me. Stupid heightened senses.

"We must feed on each other. Only then will we be able to be mates. Also, your ring will develop more." He took his other hand and slit a cut into his neck. I knew I had just drank Max's blood, but I felt sick looking at the blood dripping down Marko's neck. I can't turn back now. I have to grow up, and accept this.

"Quick, before it heals!" Max called. I quickly latched myself on to Marko's neck without another thought about it. That's when I felt it. My human blood was turning even quicker, heart racing, I knew that I was meant for Marko, and vice versa. He bit into my neck then, making me wince.

I may be a half vampire, but that hurt! I felt our blood exchanging. I felt the strange sensation on my arm again, except this time, it was an excruciating burning feel. I unlatched myself from Marko, and he did the same to me. We were both dripping in each other's blood.

"Kitty, you are now Marko's girl. You only have to make your first kill, and then you will be mated completely forever. Your powers will be kicking in right about now." Max finished, smiling.

So I can fly now? I wondered idly.

Yep, and a bunch of other stuff! I heard Paul say, except, he hadn't moved his mouth. I looked at him, then looked around.

Great, now I'm hearing stuff! I wonder what's next? I thought.

You're not hearing stuff, you can communicate with us through your mind! Marko said/thought.

Oh! Awesome! I have to be careful with my idle thoughts though. I said in my head.

Yeah, also you should learn how to keep watch on memories. Who's this 'Edgar Frog'? Marko said. I felt the fury in his mind and shrunk down at the scowl he was giving.

So it was kinda short, but I hope you liked it continue to read and please review :)
