Vincent smiled at her as they started walking down the bustling sidewalk. Every time a lovely young lady passed, he'd lick his fangs hungrily and imagine being bent over her neck, drinking in her sweet crimson nectar. Of course, he wouldn't do that because it was against everything the good vampires stood for, but it couldn't hurt to dream. He turned to Tessra as they walked, watching her expressions, searching for a glimpse of longing for human blood. He could find none, though.

"Do you drink from animals?" he asked her, looking forward, "if so, there's a lovely little wood a short distance ahead that has absolutely succulent rabbit," he said with a grin.

Tessra had noticed Vincent's reaction to see girl's walking by, but she didn't really think too much of it. Even good vampire's got cravings. When asked, she nodded a little. "I never drink human blood. Just animal blood." She'd drunken a vampire's blood before as well, a long time ago. It hadn't been bad, but she didn't tend to do it, considering it was usually a way that vampire couples showed affection. She didn't have anyone to love and be with, so she didn't think she should be drinking any vampire blood. "Rabit sounds pretty good right now."

Vincent nodded slightly. He remembered the first time he tried human blood; his friends had all warned against it, they said that once you had a taste it was terribly addictive and animal blood would never taste the same after that. But Vincent was stubborn and curious, so he tried it. He found a beautiful young human girl and convinced her to serve as a donor for him, and she agreed. Unfortunately, his friends were right and Vincent got too carried away, ending in the death of the girl at his hands. Not a day went by that he didn't think about her and how delicious human blood was, and some days he wished he had the heart to be evil just so he could have that taste in his throat again.

As they entered the woods, he turned to Tessra. "Have you ever even tried human blood before?" he asked.

by **Leila Aarons** on Tue Aug 26, 2008 5:29 pm

Tessra looked over at Vincent when he asked that, and then she looked ahead again, getting that slightly cold look again. "Once...twice, actually. In the beginning. The ones that turned me, they...kept me for awhile. They were bad, so naturally--both from that and from my own trauma--I drank blood from two different humans. But after those two and seeing them die because of me, I doing the same as those evil vampires had done...I never did it again. I couldn't."

by **Cloaked_Schemer** on Tue Aug 26, 2008 5:39 pm

Vincent thought on that for a moment. "That's... quite the tragic tale. As are most of the things you've been telling me," he said, with a sad laugh. He scanned the bushes and trees with his eyes, searching for even the slightest hint of movement. He could smell the blood of something, but it was too hard to tell what it was.

He slowly approached a small bush, his footsteps making no sound on the damp earth. Carefully, he reached in through the twigs and leaves and pulled out a small, gray rabbit. It had beady little eyes and long ears, and it was quite fat. "He's going to be quite the treat," he said, handing the critter to Tessra with a smile, "for you."

He headed over to the very same bush and, by some freak of luck, pounced onto another, though quite smaller rabbit for himself. As he broke the squirming creature's neck, he turned to Tessra. "How about... vampire blood? I've never tried it, but I've heard that it is quite tasty."

by **Leila Aarons** on Tue Aug 26, 2008 5:44 pm

Tessra took the rabbit, grinning a very faint bit back at Vincent before killing the animal. It used to be hard for her to drink the blood of rabbits, but not anymore. She had been about to drink the blood, but paused, hearing his question. "Yes, I've tried that to. Also in the beginning. That's...how I got away from the vampires that turned me. But then I found out that it was, usually, a sign of affection in couples, so I've never done it again." Besides, animal blood was alright.

Vincent brought the small rabbit up to his mouth and bared his fangs, piercing the creature's neck with them. He felt the hot liquid trickle down his throat and it felt so good. The coppery taste felt like home to him. He paused to look up at Tessra, curiosity in his eyes. "Wow, really? I had no idea drinking a vampire's blood was something intimate..." he considered this for a moment and grinned. "Now I want to do that more than ever!" he laughed, leaning down to continue feeding from the animal.

by **Leila Aarons** on Tue Aug 26, 2008 6:03 pm

Tessra grinned a faint bit more at what he said, then just began to feed. After she'd gotten her fill, she took care of the carcus, then licking her fangs to get any other blood off. She was a pretty clean feeder. Looking to Vincent, she brushed some hair away from her face, silent for a few moments, just looking. But then she spoke. "You should try it sometime, when you get the chance."

by **Cloaked_Schemer** on Tue Aug 26, 2008 6:46 pm

Vincent blinked, unsure of Tessra's expression. She was a difficult girl to read, that's for sure. He finished off the rabbit and tossed the carcass aside, licking the blood smeared across his face, but it didn't help. "Well," he started with a sigh, "I would, but as you can imagine, the girls aren't exactly lining up with their neck bared," he laughed a little, but it was more of a sad laughter.

He slid down against the trunk of a tree, leaning his head back against it.

"Hm, I suppose not. But neither are the men, it seems." Tessra shrugged, a hint of sadness in her eyes, but it disappeared as quickly as it had come. After a moment, she sat against a tree across from Vincent, just looking at him. "So...you haven't been with any women in the years you've been a vampire?" Most male vampires had had at least one mate by now. Then again, female vampires usually had to. But...thinking on it more, Tessra remembered that there were some vampires that never had a mate, so she supposed it really wasn't too odd. Not all vampires even wanted someone to be with.

Vincent looked up at the sky, watching the colors turn to a violet shade as the sun started to set. "No, I have not," he said softly, a bit embarrassed. He remembered all the chances he had, all of the women who seemed like they should be in a brothel rather than in his house. He had always found a reason to decline regardless, whether because of some sort of misplaced sense of loyalty to his late fiance, or just because he was picky.

"Normally, they are only attracted to me because of how loyal I can be," he said, looking back at Tessra, "they just love the thought of forever, you know?"

[[On second thought, I'll just post Raven's part separately]]

Raven's phone buzzed in her hand as she approached a girl with a knife strapped to her leg. She read the text and looked at the girl before putting her phone away. She smiled at the girl before turning and walking out of the alley. Damn it! she screamed in her mind. She had been hoping to spend some time with Chris before that night. And she wanted to make sure he was safe.

by **Leila Aarons** on Tue Aug 26, 2008 7:20 pm

"Hm, forever. Such an interesting concept. Nothing lasts forever, because forever never ends. And everything has an end." Tessra was looking up at the sky as well now, preferring that sight to the dirt and leaf covered ground. "But that doesn't mean that nothing is worth trying. I'm sure you'll find someone out there that's right for you. You just have to be patient, just as I have to be...I'm still learning that, myself."

Leona finished out the school day, and it seemed like forever. But it was finally over, and she sighed in relief, walking outside and grinning some. She would soon be able to see Chris again. Until then, she went to her house, just going to wait for the time. The only thing she ever seemed to look forward to.

Vicente looked rather interested at Chris who just texted a message. He didn't care to look at what he typed and didn't ask. The miracles of modern technology weren't all to interesting for him. Except maybe the automobile, but no time to inger on that now. He had someone interesting in front of him. This guy had some form of restraint. Especially considering the kitten that he turned down. What did he say about his bird again? That I haven't seen her, yet.

After Chris put away his phone, Vicente spoke: "So... Could you tell me more about your bird?"

by **Cloaked_Schemer** on Thu Aug 28, 2008 8:46 pm

Vincent laughed a bit. "I suppose you are right," he said, looking at her. He noticed that her face seemed darker, partially obscured by shadows, and realized what time it must have been. The vampires would be out soon; and he didn't want to be hearing the screeching of the humans as they ran. He also knew that those hunters would be out again, ruthlessly slaughtering anyone they even thought to be undead. He sighed, standing and stretching his long figure up towards the sky. He stopped suddenly, when he heard the slight crunching of leaves around them.
He smirked knowingly toward Tessra, nodding to the shadows, "I think we have company."

Jane cocked her head to the side a bit, curious at why the girl left after noticing her sitting there. "There must be something about this alley," she muttered to herself, looking around for anything out of the ordinary. It looked like a regular alley, from what she could tell, but that boy had disappeared back here so there must be something like an entrance or something. She decided to wait here to see if anything came out or went in. "I'll catch one of those buggers," she said confidently.

Tessra was just getting up herself when Vincent spoke, but then she glanced toward the other trees, and nodded some. "So it seems we do. What do you suppose we do about it?" Being a good vampire, killing this guest--should it be a human--was not an option. But they would be able to easily outrun whatever it was, being vampires and all. Plus the fact that Tessra knew her way around here pretty well.

by **Cloaked_Schemer** on Thu Aug 28, 2008 9:24 pm

Vincent thought for a moment, hearing the crunching growing closer and louder. "Well, one thing's for
