   Awakening:Chapter two

I looked upon the vampyre's nest watching them dance covered in blood in disgust. But even if they were filthy blood suckers and I hated them I'm pretty sure that guy who was about to find me doesn't like them either and would be happy to kill them all in a flash. And I couldn't let that happen. So I guess it was up to me to get them out of there...... Did I mention that I am sooooo dead? I walk past all of them easily, making my way towards the stage so that I could get everyone's attention, unfortunately once I got up on stage nobody even noticed I was there. This would be harder then I thought. I look up and see a fire alarm, hoping that it worked I grab a well placed liter that was inside my jacket, lift it up towards the alarm and ignite the flame. I hope this works Water immediately starts to pour down on all the vampyres. They all at once turn to the stage, each one giving me that oh so lovely I'm-gonna-slowly-kill-you look. I wince "What do you want little girl?" a vampyre says to me in a very evil tone "Look in a few minutes there is going to be a battle in here and you all need to get out now!" I reply, secretly I wanted every vampyre in that room dead, unfortunately I do have a soft side (even though it hardly shows) and it's the one that won't kill anyone. "And what if we don't?" the vampyre hisses. I reply to his action by pulling out a pistol and shooting a bullet in his left arm "You die" I say as the vampyre falls to the ground clutching his shoulder. I really hoped that bluff worked. If it didn't I was screwed, not only because I would let people....well vampyres die but I myself would probably die as well; because they would distract me while I was fighting the guy that was in the process of chasing me and was probably going to bust in the door any moment now. Yeah I already knew the guy was strong enough to kill me and everyone else in here, anyone who had been given that machine had to be the best. The vampyres all look up at me after helping their wounded friend. They knew what was going to happen; I could see it in their eyes. In a few moments every vampyre in that nest ran towards a different exit. And somehow every one of them made it out, they were lucky. I wait for the guy who had been hunting me to come in the door, man he was taking a while. "Miss Deru Ikau" I hear a voice call from one of the nest' entrances. I look towards the figure expecting some sort of evil looking vampyre. You can imagine my shock when I see a human standing in back of me, holding that blasted machine "Yeah that’s me" I reply raising my hand preparing to fight "So you’re the vampyre I've been hunting for all this time" the man says "I'm sorry but I'll have to kill you now" who did this guy think he is? I am certainly not a vampyre! But then again, he called me by my name, how is that possible? "No I'm sorry because I'm not a vampyre" I reply "YOU LIAR!" the guy shouts at me while trying to attack me with a stake; I think this guy is nuts.....or he thinks I've done something really bad and is just calling me a vampyre because they are the only ones who would do the bad thing he thinks I did. Whatever the reason this guy wasn't going to stop until he killed me, or at least proved I was a vampyre and then kill me. I dodge his attack; I don't want to hurt him, so for now I'll just try to avoid his attacks Easier said than done This guy was just as powerful as I thought he would be, every attack was getting harder to dodge and he actually managed to hit me a few times. I was done for, I couldn't keep this up forever. I needed to talk to him; try to tell him that this was a mistake and hopefully come out of it alive. he lunges at me once more, I try to dodge it but it's to late I've been stabbed straight through the shoulder. And am now pinned up against the wall watching my blood ooze down my arm slowly as I begin to bleed to death. I look up at the man shocked that he stabbed me; this is the first time I've gotten a good look at him. He looks as old as I am!! "Your bleeding" he says in shock "but that means your not a-" "Vampyre" I interrupt him "no I'm not are you okay with that?" I say weakly, I probably shouldn't be insulting the one person who is close enough that he could save my life. but then again he did stab me through the arm" My vision begins to become blurry because of the loss of blood. I really didn't want to die like this, not even knowing the name of my killer (which was rude of him not to give) not even at the age of twenty...this sucks I look up at the last person I would see before I die, he's still in shock that I'm not a vampyre and so he isn't moving much right now but I look into his eyes and they're staring directly into mine, his eyes were comforting telling me that everything was going to be okay; I knew it wouldn't but still the feeling is great to have I slowly start to black out, never taking my eyes off his. And then he smiles at me. He actually has the nerve to smile at the person he killed! "Don’t worry I won't let you die" he says picking me up in his arms, I have no idea where he is bringing me and I really shouldn't trust him, but hey I have no choice right? "I. can’t" I attempt to say thank you to him, but now I'm feeling more pain than before which was really weird. Now the pain was all over and it hurt like no other. I gasp hoping that he would know that I was in incredible pain and that he should just leave me to die here but he just kept carrying me. With that same look on his face, I like that look I then black out ***************************** ***************************** I stare down at the woman bleeding to death in my arms. Never had I thought that this would happen. "I can't allow her to die" I repeat to myself over and over Normally, if another human had been hurt by me and was going to die I wouldn't have cared. But now as I can feel her body going cold, I think back on how evil I can be sometimes. Some vampyre slayer. What good is it to protect the human race from vampyres when you don't care if they die or not? Well that was all going to stop today. Apparently it was this woman’s lucky day...or should I say girl, she looks as old as I am I finally get to my house. My best friend Kite lived there as my roommate. He has stuck with me ever since I first became a slayer, for the gods sake he was the one who taught me how to fight and BE a slayer. He was my appointed watcher, and if anyone could cure this girl, it was him. I rush inside my house and onto Kite's room; the girl is fading faster than I thought. I lay her down on Kite's medical bed located in the center of his room. He noticed that I came in, but was busy doing something so he didn't bother to turn around. "So how was the whole 'hunt for the vampyre' thing go?" Kite said in an irritated tone of voice. He was mad at me because I used someone else's device to hunt down a vampyre instead of one of his inventions He said I was making a mistake He said someone was going to get hurt And you know what the worst part is? ..He was right "Kite I need help over here" I say, ignoring what he said before, despite the fact that he was right, does not mean I want to tell him that "Are you that beaten' up? For the love of the gods Spike it's one bloody vamp..y..re" he says while turning around to see what the damage was. You can imagine his shock when he saw a passed out girl on his medical bed "It's not for me" I reply to the still in shock Kite "I made a mistake and she'll die if we don't help her" "..Spike" Kite says, good one word, at least we were getting somewhere "Please Kite!" I ask in an urgent tone "You owe me for this" he replies with a smirk on his face "I do man I do" I say while smiling "thanks" "Oh don't thank me" Kite says "thank the look on her face for talking me into doing this" he smirks while ripping off the girl's sleeve "What do ya mean by that?" I reply "You’ve got that stupid I-want-to-kiss-the-girl-cause-she's-hot-but-I'm-afraid-my-friend'll-notice" he says "...I'll kill you" I reply with a darkish frown "Then who would make your weapons and repair the passed out girls?" he replies "who I ask you? Is it Santa? Cause tell him I want my toaster back!" My best friend is nuts
