Wini Zeklos's Story

PLOT

The group of royal’s and dhampirs are all the first party of the year. It looked like this year was starting out great, a few new faces in the crowd but most of them where already close with each other. They never thought the Strigoi would show up, they didn’t know it was them at first, they where all in disguises and the party had a lot of people around. Then something happened that changed the lives of many people in the group, now the group will have to make a choice between two close friends. Will they make the right choice? Will they be able to go through with their choices? Well we will just have to wait and see. Let the Party begin!

Brylen

Brylen looked around as she took another drink from her alcholic beverage. Shes been here about an hour now and things have really heaten up and most everyone was here. She has had a few drinks in her and was feeling a bit tipsy. She looked at Kitty "hmm I feel like dancing...c'mon lets go dance" she then left the crowd she was in and went to the area most people where dancing. She put her hands in the air, still holding her drink, and let her body move to the music. She loved to dance and she wasn't actually that bad at it. Her eyes looked over at Angel and Mace but mostly looked at Angel and beckoned for the girl to come over and dance. "Angel come dance with me and let loose! No need to just stand there the whole time!" she yelled, she looked around for her sister Eliza knowing she would be around here somewhere, probably with Brook. Brylen started singing out loud to the song "So raise your glass if you are wrong In all the right ways, all my underdogs We will never be, never be anything but loud And nitty gritty, dirty little freaks Won't you come on and come on and Raise your glass! Just come on and come on and Raise your glass!" It was her favor song and new the words by heart, she sang it loud but on key, she wasnt too bad of a singer, there has been worse she has heard. She wanted someone, anyone to come dance with her so she looked through the crowd "c'mon anyone wanna dance?!"


Mace

Mace was standing there with Angel, he has been holding the same drink for the past hour, hardly ever drinking from it. He didn't really care for drinking and it really didn't give him the effect it seemed to give others. He was here because of Angel, he would pretty much do anything for her, anything she asked. He knew maybe someday he could be Angel's guardian but he needed to prove he could do the job and do it right. He watched as Brylen went over to dance and called Angel, he just shook his head. He knew Brylen was a party girl and always got a bit wild when it came to the partys "Why don't you go dance with Brylen, Angel, let loose a little?"


Brook

Brook was standing with Eliza and bobbing her head to the music "This party fuckin rocks doesnt it Liza? first party of the year always resembles what the year is going to be like! and I feel its going to be a good one" she grabbed a drink for herself and slowly sipping it knowing she shouldn't have too much just in case anything happened. She gazed around the crowd looking for Lulu, she knew the other dhampir had to be around here somewhere because she did hear Brylen singing and usually where Brylen is Lulu isnt that far away because shes the girls Guardian. She looked to Liza "we should find your sister and Lulu if thats okay? Though it shouldnt be too hard eh?"


Wini

Wini was sitting in the front seat of the car and fixed her black wig looking to Gabe "we better not get caught or this is going to go downhill" she then climbed out of the car fixing her red dress and put her sunglasses on, she turned too look in the car "now lets go find us some fun shall we?" She then walked swiftly near the tree line not really wanting to be noticed by anyone, she wanted to observe and take note of everyone there. She saw Darius and saw how tall he was getting "he really has gotten tall" she thought to herself as she scanned the crowd again this time her eyes fell on Angel, her sweet little sister has started to finially look like she was growing up. She frowned, if only she could talk to them, to say hi but she knew she couldn't it would ruin everything and just cause more issues. So for now she just leaned against a tree and watched.

Marcus

Marcus sat in the back of the van, dressed in a disguise consisting of a black obey hat, jeans, converse, sunglasses and a blue and white raglan shirt. Marcus squirmed uncomfortably in his seat. Marcus watched the scenery flash by in blurs as the van took speed, heading to the party. Soon he'd have a girl in his arms, him draining her slowly until she had just enough blood to live. Marcus licked his lips in delight. No one would get in his way tonight. Tonight was a feast. A feast of blood. Marcus felt the car roll to a stop and he hopped out. He breathed in the scent of young vampires and the outdoors and smiled merrily. He decided to scope out a victim. He laid his eyes on a girl with fiery red hair that looked like a feisty one, possibly a good meal?

Cherie

Cherie was sitting next to Marcus in the van. Cherie was dressed in a blue and black checked plaid shirt, jeans, purple doc martens, glasses and a grey beanie. Cherie sat silent as they continued along the road, heading for the party. Cherie moved her gaze to Wini and leaned over to reach Wini who was sitting in the front seat. She gave Wini a reassuring squeeze on her hand to signify that whatever happened this morning was behind us. Cherie didn't move her hand though. Wini's hand was soft and warm, giving Cherie a peaceful state of mind. Cherie sighed softly and looked out the window. Cherie felt the car roll to a stop and she hopped out of the car along with everyone else. Cherie breathed in the scent of the outdoors and smiled. She looked around and saw Wini leaning against a tree. Wini smiled and stood behind her for a moment, following her gaze to 2 students. "Are those your siblings?" Cherie said suddenly, walking to stand next to Wini.

Andrea

Andrea sighed as she arrived at the party, she twisted the fringe of her cardigan between her thumb and index finger scanning the crowd. Andrea sighed, the sky was nice and dark, just the way she liked it, with the moon shining on the lake it made Andrea sigh. She needed to go for a swim. Andrea started for the lake when she got a text. Darius!

why don’t you turn around

Andrea whipped around and saw Darius just a couple yards away. Damn she wanted to kiss him but not this early into the party... It needed to be quiet and there couldn't be a crowd. "Darius!" Andrea smiled and ran over and threw her arms around him. "How are you?" Andrea asked as she unwound her hands from his neck and placed them in her pockets. Andrea glanced over at the lake... "Hey come on lets go somewhere where its not too loud.." Andrea said as she grabbed his hand and led him to the lake where she sat down on the grass. "C'mon, lets talk!" Andrea smiled and patted a spot next to her, motioning for him to sit next to her.

Brylen


Brylen was letting herself sway to the music when she saw a girl with reddish hair coming towards her ”Nice singing” she heard the girl yell over the crowd and Brylen smiled to the girl and when the girl got closer she could here her say “I’m Bellatrix, but you can call me Trix” . Brylen grinned, she was always up to making new friends and she has seen Trix around the school “Hey im Brylen!!” she yelled over the music as she danced. She watched as Trix walked off to Lupe and smiled to the dhampir and waved yelling out “Nice dancing Lupe!”

When Nat got up and sung she let her body moved to the music sort of going into a trance like state most likely because of the drinks but the drinks where helping her depressed feeling from being a spirit user go away which always made her to be in a better mood. She watched as Darius and Andrea walked off to the lake and grinned, she did hope those two would get together. Maybe they need more of a push, or maybe I just need to give Darius some pointers she thought to herself.

She continued to dance and was glad her guardian Lulu hasn’t come over to tell her to slow down on the drinking, since she has started having guardians most of them told her to not drink so much and she was most likely to tell them to fuck off. She saw Angel come up to her and she hoped the girl was coming to dance but then heard Angel yell "I'm going to go get you a drink." “Okay hun come back and dance though!” she yelled out to the girl as she walked off. Brylen then felt someone, most likely a guy, come up behind her. She grinned and danced against the mysterious guy not looking back to see who he was, she was just going with the flow but then felt him move in front of her and saw that it was Randall “Mind if I join in with such a pretty lady?” she was about to respond when she saw Alec come out of no where and tell the guy to ”beat it”. She saw the look in Alec’s eyes and she knows that look. She looked to Randall “sorry hun but Alec here needs me in his arms right now” she then turned herself so she was looking up to Alec’s face. Putting her hands against his chest “you know you could of let him have once dance” she grinned slurring her words a little as the liquor started getting to her head. She looked around with her eyes as she dance with Alec, her eyes found Angel….over near a tree with a girl she hasn’t seen before and the weird boy, Adrian. She kept looking over there as she leaned her head against Alec’s chest.


Mace

Mace smiled to Angel watching her every move then heard her say in a very low voice "Okay, go have some fun Mace.." “Ill try Angel, you too”[/b] he watched her walk away and he looked over the crowd he wasn’t one much for partys but he came for Angel. He walked around the crowd keeping his eyes open for anything then went down to the lake. He noticed Darius and Angel and waved to them both then went a little ways past them and took a seat on the grass and started flinging rocks out to the water letting his mind wander.

Wini

Wini kept thinking about Cherie’s hand that was on hers the whole car ride to the party. Her mind then went to Marcus, she was sure she was going to kill that boy someday, though she wasn’t sure when but she really wanted to. She watched Angel go into the crows and Darius go off with a blonde girl to the lake. Her eyes scoped the crowd once more and she noticed one of her old friends Trix, god she missed that girl so much but she knew she couldn’t go over and say hi. They where suppose to be staying somewhat on the down low for now. She heard Cherie come up behind her, she knew the smell and the sound of the girls footsteps. "Are those your siblings?" she nodded “yes they are” she looked to Cherie when the girl came and stood next to her “im hungry” was all she said before she moved quickly to the first person nearest to them, a girl (npc) with black hair, and grabbed her quickly pulling her over to Cherie. Before the girl could scream she quickly snapped the girls neck in a very swift way then bit down on the girls next. She sighed feeling the warm blood go down her throat. After a couple minutes she let her bite go and pushed the girl over to Cherie “here I left some for you” she grinned her lips where stained with blood but as she turned around there was now a boy near them. She grinned when he said "Um hi,this tree seems pretty awesome so you wouldn't mind if i sat here either would you ? she couldn’t help but laugh. Did this boy know what he just got himself into, she thought to herself but before she could say anything she saw Angel walk over, her little sister she hasn’t spoken to in years.

She watched Angel tell the boy to leave and Wini couldn’t help but laugh again, her little sister sure has grown up “I would listen to her you don’t know what could happen to such a pretty boy like you” she snorted and then looked to Angel then looked to Cherie “have fun with your snack” she then quickly took her sisters arm and walked swiftly farther away from the crowd. “Ah my dear little sister, it has been years and you have grown up so much….there isn’t a day that I have not thought of you….I saw one of your friends earlier. She was in the garden I used to go during my stay at St.Vlads. Her father is actually one of my good friends now” she then pulled Angel into a tight hug “you should join me Angel, its amazing you never have to worry about anything any more, join me. I want to have my baby sister with me always”.


Brook

Brook grinned to Eliza when she said the party was kick ass. Everything was going good, she then watched as Eliza grabbed a beer “don’t drink too much I don’t want to have to be the one carrying up those god damn stairs at the school, ya know how I am with those stairs, they always make me fall.” She kept her eyes gazing the crowd. Seeing some of her friends hanging out others drinking. "Oh i'm sure it wont be hard to fine her at all." “Ya got that right wherever there is the crowd she is there.” She then started walking with Eliza around the crowd and spotted Brylen dancing with Alec “theres your sister now gotta find Lulu”. She scanned her eyes around the crowd wondering where Lulu was, there was just something about the girl that she liked and really wanted to spend more time with her and maybe do something more, who knows. She pulled out her phone and sent a text to Lulu ”Where are you girl? Been looking for you thought u be near Brylen”. After she sent the text she looked to Eliza “Ok sent a text to Lulu asking her where the hell she was.”

.

Darius started at the lake, a blush on his cheeks as he rubbed his forehead slightly. He’d basically done the equivalent of verbal vomit and he couldn’t help but be embarrassed of himself. He stood up quickly and stepped away from Andrea, his mind going through a thousand things and he could barely hear a word she was saying.

Darius turned his back away and closed his eyes, taking a really deep breath and focusing on what was going on. He had no idea what he should do right now, it was obvious he was out of his depths and he was just making a fool of himself at this point. He opened his eyes again, they went first to the huge dance party where he couldn’t have picked out an elephant from the crowd let alone a single person. He swept his gaze around though and by luck happened to see Angel. He seemed to be heading up the hill and he couldn’t help but frown as she went and hugged some random girl. Darius looked closer, not recognizing the girl when he started walking around the lake to get a better view. To anyone watching it would just look like he was taking a little stroll, not too odd for someone who was well known for not liking these kinds of parties. Before he had taken even two steps he called back over his shoulder before continuing. “I’ll be back in a sec, I need to see something”

As he walked his brow furrowed as he started to be able to see the girl clearer. She didn’t look like any of angels friends but something about her was familiar. He started to move towards them now, a look of concern on his face that echoed the concern that he felt. Something was off and he just couldn’t place it. He moved toward them swiftly, his walk turning into a jog and then a run as the realization dawned on him. Who would Angel walk up to and hug? Who would keep themselves away from the party? Who would be the only person that Angel would leave Brylen and Mace to go see? There was only one answer. Wini.

He closed the distance and let his voice yell out to them. “Angel! Come here, step back slowly!” He’d already lost one sister and no matter how much he loved Wini he wasn’t going to risk losing the other one. As he got closer he saw it, the blood on Wini’s lips. Anger flared in him as he charged forward, first thinking it was Angels blood until he saw the girl dead and being fed on. He reached out, grabbing Angel to pull her away from Wini as he spoke with a snarl. “Damn you, How could you do something like this? The sister I knew wouldn’t have hurt anyone, let alone feed on one…..I guess being a monster has made you one.”

He hated the idea, he hated the words that were flowing from his mouth but he couldn’t stop them. He’d had the fear, the worry and the doubts about returning her to who she was but now it was confirmed. She wasn’t his sister anymore. His sister was gone and even if she was staked and changed back she wouldn’t be her again. His sister was dead.


Every bone in his body called for him to slit the guys throat, his hands moved to his back and almost drew his blades before he stopped himself and just smiled at the guy. He gave the girl and wink and added a wink for him too when he started to speak. “Well if he’s so very needy I guess I’ll let him have you, don’t worry though babe. I’ll be by later to show you what a real man is like. Peace sulky” With a last little laugh Randall twisted away, his movements quick and clean as he put a few people in-between them.

He danced a few more dances and had a few more drinks before he broke away from the dance floor and headed towards the drinks. He glanced up seeing two very odd sights. The first was the little angel hugging some girl, he’d never thought of her as the affectionate sort. The second sight was Darius and Andrea, he’d never thought either one of them would grow enough of a pair to get any along time together.

“I would listen to her you don’t know what could happen to such a pretty boy like you” Wini snorted and then looked to Angel then looked to the other girl who stood by her. “Have fun with your snack” Her sister said plainly before she quickly took Angels arm and walked swiftly farther away from the crowd, Angel stumbling behind her sister in a slight state of shock. “Ah my dear little sister, it has been years and you have grown up so much….there isn’t a day that I have not thought of you….I saw one of your friends earlier. She was in the garden I used to go during my stay at St.Vlads. Her father is actually one of my good friends now” Angeline wasn't real sure how to respond, but her sister seemed to read her mind and she pulled Angel into a tight hug, and for a moment, for a small short moment, Angel closed her eyes and hugged her sister back, she wanted to cry to her sister, she wanted to beg her to let them turn her back, before she had been so strong coming up to her sister, and now all she could think about was crying. Wini could snap her neck, or drink from her, or change her, and all she wanted to do was cry to her sister like she used to. “You should join me Angel, its amazing you never have to worry about anything any more, join me. I want to have my baby sister with me always”. Angel closed her eyes tighter, gripping her sisters shirt like it was her life line.

It would be so easy to say yes, to let her sister pull her away and never look back. But...Could she really do it? Could she leave behind everyone she loved? Could she leave behind Mace. Deep down, Angeline knew..she knew she could. One part of her could leave them all behind and go evil, all for hr sister. But the other prat of her..it was screaming at her, yelling and fighting. Slowly she opened her eyes, to tell her sister..to tell her that?



“Angel! Come here, step back slowly!” Angel winced at the voice, she slowly turned around, not really leaving her sister embrace, but looking at her brother. She wanted him to leave, she wanted to go with her sister.
Before Angel could say anything through, he charged forward and reached out, grabbing her to pull her away from Wini as he spoke with a snarl that broke Angel's heart. “Damn you, How could you do something like this? The sister I knew wouldn’t have hurt anyone, let alone feed on one…..I guess being a monster has made you one.”

Wini...Daruis... Angel jerked her arm out of Darius grasp and stepped back, towards her sister. "She's not a monster!" Angel cried out shaking her head. "How could you say something like that Darius?!! She's our sister!!!" Angel's voice had risen, and the look in her eyes was killer. Angel felt so inbetween, and now her brother was protecting her? No..he would not protect her from her own sister!!




Alec grinned down at Brylen “Sorry hun but Alec here needs me in his arms right now” she then turned herself so she was looking up to Alec’s face. Putting her hands against his chest, she was distracting him so he wouldn't spin around and kill that guy. “You know you could of let him have once dance” She grinned slurring her words a little, she was going to be drunk soon if he didn't take her drink away, through she would throw a fit. "Unless he's a cross dresser, he cant dance with you." Alec chuckled at his joke and spun her around, stopping when he saw Kitty.

Alec blinked as Brylen was pulled away from him, and he shot Kitty a annoyed look which only earned him a smirk. "Hang on there big boy, she's all yours, just let me say hi okay?" She teased making him roll his eyes and stand there akwardly in a dancing crowd, waiting to get his lil Bry back. Before Alec knew what was going on Kitty gestured to him and said in a joking tone. "Anyway, go back to your man-candy there." Alec grinned and Pulled Bylen back against his chest before spinning them around, through he did catch site of Kitty grabbing some random guy and dancing with him, he couldn't help but chuckle.




Silently Gabe made his way over to the boy who had pretty much been turned down by Wini. He grinned at the kid and leaned on the tree before speaking. "Got turned down huh? I bet that sucks. Feelin kinda alone and upset? You know when the blood tastes the best? When the person is scared or sad, the blood tastes so good then, well to me it dose. I like to feed off of sad people, but I never kill. Well..not most the time." Gabe grinned at the kid and stepped in front of him, making the boy back up.

Gabe hadn't fed in a few days, and the hunger was starting to get to him, a fast little meal would do good, but if the boy made to much noise, he'd just snap his neck and feed, he didn't have a problem with it, through deep down he would feel guilty for ending such a young life..but why the hell not? Just because he wa leading the others didn't mean he had to be a good boy. Because none of them were good. They were all bad, so he might as well be bad too.

Wini

Wini held her sister tight, she could sense Angel’s emotions like they where her own. She could feel her sister’s heart beat against her, she closed her eyes waiting for Angel to answer when she heard Darius “Angel! Come here, step back slowly!” she rolled her eyes and glared at her brother “you really think I would hurt Angel you jack ass” she hissed her words, though she didn’t believe turning her sister would actually be hurting her, it would be saving Angel in her eyes. “Damn you, How could you do something like this? The sister I knew wouldn’t have hurt anyone, let alone feed on one…..I guess being a monster has made you one.” Wini heard the words come out of her brothers mouth….a monster..that just sorta pushed her over the edge, her eyes got a darker red and she tore off the wig, so Darius could really see her. “A monster you say Darius? My dear brother that got up and left us…the one that just walked away from everything…well Darius I guess I should show you how a real monster is…maybe you could become one yourself huh? Then you will know how it feels, how the blood goes down your throat and it feels so warm. Mmmm so delicious. Oh and you know what is really fun, when they try to run…I call that game cat and mouse, and the cat always wins” after her last word she brought her fist back and goes to slam her fist into Darius’s chest not really realizing how much strength she was using.


Brylen

Brylen was leaned her head against Alec’s chest and laughed when he said "Unless he's a cross dresser, he cant dance with you." “Pfft” was all she could really say just before she felt her wrist grabbed and she was being pulled away and smiled almost falling into Kitty “Kittyyy-Kat!” she grinned and laughed when she what Kitty said to Alec “don’tt worry hun ill be righttt back in your armss” her words slurring ever so slightly. She turned to face her best friend "Hey Bry-bear! Party looks amazing, finally got out of that bitches office. She told me I couldn't leave school grounds for two weeks or something like that. But obviously, that didn't work." She couldn’t help but smile at the nickname Kitty always called her “tis amazing isn’t it! And that bitch tried to do that to me bef…fore but it nev..ver worksss” she then smiled when Kitty said "Anyway, go back to your man-candy there” “he sure is a man candy huh?” she whisper to Kitty before going back into Alec’s arms. Watching Kitty dance closely behind her, this was the life, she thought to herself as she danced with Alec. A faster song started and Brylen couldn’t help but move her body faster and closer against Alec letting herself feel the music.

After the song she felt thirsty and wanted another drink. “Alec hun imma get another drink, ‘kay?” she then turned and grabbed Kitty’s hand and looked to the boy she was dancing with “sorry buddy Kitty-Kat is coming with me” she then smiled to Kitty “lets go get another drink ‘kay?” she then saw Lulu watching her and rolled her eyes, she really did not like having a guardian watching her every move. Quickly pulling Kitty through the crowd hoping maybe she could lose Lulu’s attention, especially since she saw Brook nearby. As she got to the table with the drinks she couldn’t help but notice something suspicious going on over in a field. She saw Angel hugging a girl with black hair that didn’t look young enough to be in their school, then she saw Darius go up there and pull Angel away from the girl. “Hey Kitty do you see that” she motioned over to the three in the field. She grabbed a drink and then took Kitty’s hand once more and started walking over to angel, darius, and the girl….then she saw the girl take off her wig and Brylen stopped for just one second “oh no…shit…this cant be happening” she then saw Wini pulled back and go to punch…her eyes went wide and she let go of Kitty’s hand and ran but she was too late…she screamed at what she saw.

Brook

Brook kept looking around then felt her phone buzz and she looked at it and read the text “Turn around” . Brook grinned and pretty much jumped in place before she turned around and saw Lulu. She took Eliza’s hand and ran over to Lulu, letting go of Eliza’s hand she gave Lulu a hug and a small friendly kiss on the cheek “been look for ya every where girl, tho I knew ya be over here near Brylen. How is it going?” she took a few steps so she was now standing next to Lulu “this year seems like its going to be a good one huh? So glad I got Eliza as a charge….how is it with you and Brylen…you are going to have your hands full. Eliza told me somethings Brylen did with her last guardians…”

Kitty laughed, her drink slowly starting to make her a little tipsy as she danced. She wasn't nearly as drunk as Bry yet, but her mind was just starting to cloud. When someone's hand clamped down on her wrist, she looked up, a little confused. “Sorry buddy Kitty-Kat is coming with me.” Kitty gestured over her shoulder to Brylen, giving the irritated boy a shrug.

"Sorry babe, but you heard her." She grinned and placed a small kiss on his lips before allowing Brylen to tug her away giggling. She stumbled out of the crowd with her friend and hiccuped slightly.

“Let's go get another drink ‘kay?” Kitty glanced at the drink she had in her hand. Empty. How many had she had? Whatever. She threw the cup over her shoulder and nodded, allowing he friend to lead her to the drink table, where she grabbed another drink. “Hey Kitty do you see that?” Kittrina followed Brylen's finger with her eyes while her friend grabbed another drink. It looked like Angel, an older girl, and Darius were out there. And something was about to happen.

Brylen's hand in hers pulled her from her thoughts as they headed towards the three, taking a sip of her drink. Her booze-clouded mind was struggling to find out what was going on with Angel and Darius in a way that wouldn't ruin their party.

Then the older girl pulled off her wig and Kitty felt Brylen stop suddenly. “Oh no…shit…this cant be happening.” Kitty squinted. Was that... Holy shit, it's Winni! Was all she could think as she watched, almost in slow motion, as the girl pulled her arm back.

Then Brylen shrieked and Kitty threw her arms around her friend, wrapping one around her waist to pull her close and placing another over her mouth. Suddenly everything was clear and she no longer felt clouded as she pulled her hand from Brylen's now-silent mouth and held her friend in a tight hug, frozen in shock. "Oh my God." She whispered, burying her face in her friend's hair.



Lulu smiled when Brook and Eliza ran over. "Brookie-Cookie!" She grinned, wrapping her friend in a tight hug, returning the tiny kiss on her cheek with one on her own. "I'm good, I'm good." She let go and took a drag off her cigarette, gesturing to the tall blond boy that had wandered off a few seconds ago. "Mr. Tall-And-Handsome over there just had the night of his life." She laughed mischieviously.

"This year seems like its going to be a good one huh? So glad I got Eliza as a charge….how is it with you and Brylen…you are going to have your hands full. Eliza told me somethings Brylen did with her last guardians…” Lulu just pursed her lips and took another drag while her friend talked, nodding as she watched Brylen and Kittrina peeled away from the crowd.

"Yeah, she'll be a handful, but why do you think they gave her me?" She said with a smirk. "Because I'm more than capable of handeling it."

A shriek made her drop her cigarette. "Fuck." She muttered and stamped it out. "That was Brylen. Come one." She grabbed her friend's wrist and tugged her through the crowd, shoving viciously to get through. On the other side, she saw what the source of she scream was and whipped out a small knife. Winni was down in the field, and she'd most certainly heard Brylen scream. Lou slipped into the cover of the trees, eyes bouncing between Kitty and Brylen, and Winni. She wasn't stupid. Sure, she hated Strigoi, but she wasn't going to go out hunting them.

If Winni threatened her charge, she would, but if not, she would let her get away. Silently, she pulled Brook into the trees with her and ducked down to watch. "Don't call me paranoid." She smirked in a whisper.

Theme song for this post:
Saviour
Hero
Hero's

Angel stared in shock as her two older siblings began to fight. She felt as if something inside her was twisting and fighting to brake free. Did siblings do this? Did people that loved each other fight to kill one another? Childhood friends, people who had grown up together and learned to love one another, no not learned. It had been natural to love family. And now they were fighting. Maybe it wasn’t the fact that her brother and sister were fighting that caused tears to slowly begin to flow from her eyes and down her face. No, maybe it was the fact that they were leaving her out of it once again, like she was no longer important and all they cared about was killing one another.

This was not natural. So she had a right to feel hurt, to want to throw herself in the middle to stop the fight. They were her family. Flashes zoomed through her head. When they were children they knew when to quiet, knew when to back down and go hide. But kids always grow up. Had Angel grown up? Was this what that feeling was? The need to grow up and join the fight? Maybe she didn’t want to be protected anymore. One day she would need a savior, but it wouldn’t be Wini or Daruis. She would have to be their savior, and someone else would have to save her, because she was tired of them protecting her. Maybe if she just stood up, she wouldn’t be so small, if she unbound her hands maybe she would no longer fall. She had to become something her family never thought such a young girl would be. A Savior.

The small girl moved without giving a second thought, diving in front of her older brother as her sister aimed a well placed hit towards his stomach. She missed her target. Angel stood in the way, a shocked look set on her face as something warm and sticky ran down her neck. Her sister had never thought about her unhuman strength, through Darius would have lived to tell the tale of such a hit. The hit was aimed at the smaller girl’s throat, she had saved her brother but it would cost her her life.
Slowly she fell to her knees, her sister staring at her with wide eyes as her brother stood behind her, shell-shocked. “Sissy..?” Angel’s voice was choked and yet it had so much emotion in it, and all the sadness she had been hiding in her eyes for so long seemed to shine through like the sun would through dark clouds. “I..I forgive..you.” Angel’s world began to spin, and as everything went black, a scream was the last thing she heard. She had died. She was a savior…But she didn’t have a savior. Did she?



Theme songs for this flashback:
Rise Against
Promise of a lifetime

A seven year old Angel sat by the edge of a pool beside a twelve year old Wini, the younger girl was splashing her feet playfully while the other watched her with a loving happy almost motherly look, but the young girl did not see at the moment. Suddenly through, the younger girl turned to her sister and said in a quite voice.
"Wini?" The girl blinked at her sister, who just nodded for her to go on.
"I heard mommy and daddy talking about how Daruis is a hero but..what is a hero..what dose it mean sissy?" the girl kicked her feet in the water once again, making slight ripples erupt over the smooth surface.

The older girl seemed slightly stunned at the question, what kind of seven year old asked that? Wini thought long and hard for a moment, trying to carefully place her words before she spoke to the younger child who would absorb everything.

"A hero is....A hero is somebody who is selfless, who is generous in spirit, who just tries to give back as much as possible and help people. A hero to me is someone who saves people and who really deeply cares, someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself...A hero is someone who understands the responsibility that comes with his or her freedom, not just anyone can be a hero, But most the time people will find a hero, a savior in the people they less expect to find one in." The young Angle closed her eyes and took this in.

"So...If Dauris is expect to be a Hero..he really wont be...but someone like..me? I could be a savior..??" She looked up at her sister, and smiled down at her and nodded. "One day Angel, you'll be a hero, a Savior, and I promise, I'll be around to see that day." Then without another word, the two girls dived down into the water.

One day..you'll be someone's Angel...




Alec sighed as Brylen left and Kitty and when to get himself a drink, it was just his luck, the only reason he came to these partys were for her, but he could understand her need to want to hang with her friends and be all over boys, maybe he should be less protective and and just..just what? Stand and watch, lame. Alec shoot his head and took a large gulp from his glass, that he was sure was straight vodka.

He shook his head and started to walk around the party, it seemed everyone was having a good time..but where was Brylen? Alec and everyone else stopped dead as more then one scream ripped through the night, and could be heard over the music. Brylen! insistently he dropped his drink and took off where the scream had come from, he made it to Kitty and Brylen before anyone else could blink.

"Is she hurt?! What happened!!" he said running up to them, and slowly he followed their gaze, his eyes telling him what he saw was fake. There stood the three siblings, Darius, Wini and Angel, but Angel stood almost limply, Wini had her hand over the young girls throat, and Darius just stood there. Then Alec saw the red spreading down from the young girls throat, and he understood what was happening.

Alec grabbed Brylen from Kitty and pulled her along swiftly towards them, half way there he whipped around and stared at her, right in her eyes as he spoke quickly. "You know what you have to do Brylen." before he raced up behind Darius, holding him back from most likely killing his sister.
All Alec could really think about through, was the fact that the young girl that Brylen and Kitty had both loved so much, was now bleeding out. No..she was dead.

[Darius]

Everything seemed to slow down, Wini’s words hit him like a blow themselves but nothing could compare for what happened next. She struck at him, her anger overflowing and thinking to hurt him. She might not have even hit him, he might have been able to get out of the way in time or at least mitigate the damage or do something. A snarl came to his face but quickly went away as his eyes grew wide and focused on Angel, on his sweet little sister. She was getting in the way, she was doing the worst thing that she could right now. A cry came to his lips as he moved, it seemed as though he was moving in wax though. His fingertips stretched out and trying to grab her, to do anything to save her for he knew what was coming.

It all happened too fast, his hands outstretch to grab her as the blow landed and he watched the blood flow out. A cry ripped form his lips, a yell that was louder than anything he’d ever said. He’d always been a quiet one but now, he felt as though his scream would reach the heavens. His arms wrapped around his little sister as his face contorted and a river from down from his eyes. He held her close, holding her tight as he felt the blood flowing out of her. He reached his hand forward to the wound, pressing against it as best he could be after a few moments she was gone. She was dead in his arms. Another scream ripped out of him, another rip of denial at what had happened. Something in his mind and something in his heart snapped then, it was as though all the memories of that sweet girl came tumbling back.

All those times Darius had watched her from afar, had stalked after her on her little play dates and watched her having fun as he hid so that she wouldn’t notice. He’d have done anything for her. Now she was gone, ripped from this life. So many memories and thoughts came flooding out of him and into his tears as they fell and landed on her face. It might have only been moments that he held her but it seemed as though years had passed. Within seconds there was nothing left inside of him but guilt and anger. He’d done this, he had failed and he had let his little sister down. He’d lost both of them. He cried out again. As he shook her corpse, a light blush still on her cheeks. If he’d just stayed away, if he’d just not seen her she would be alive right now. His eyes welled with tears as he layer her down on the ground and closed her eyes. As those amazing eyes that he’d seen staring up at him so many times shut for their last time he couldn’t help but feel himself shut down too. He’d done this before; he’d done this a thousand times in his old life. The only thing left was hate and anger as he stood up.

He let a cry rip from his throat again, maddened rage filling him as he threw himself after his sister. His only thoughts were on killing her, on getting his hands around her throat and squeezing the life from her. He knew he’d die, he knew that soon he would be joining his sister in the beyond but he would be dragging Wini there with him. His hands were strong, his legs ready and able and he knew one thing beyond all doubt. Wini would pay for what she’d done to his sister, and he would pay for what he had allowed to happen.

Bellatrix stood, frozen, unable to move. She knew the smell as well, and it still frightened her. Instead of running for the car as Lupe had told her to, she followed her outside. However, as she walked outside, she saw the car she was supposed to go to and decided that, since Lupe had just agreed to the one thing she had always wanted, since the day it happened.

Bellatrix didn't move to quickly to the car, wanting to see what was happening, and even once she got there she didn't get in. She sat, silently, on the roof of the car, and looked around, looking for anyone else. She was a little scared, but nothing she hadn't experienced before. Bellatrix knew what it was like to live in fear...she was constantly afraid.

As she scanned the darkness, she saw the figure of someone she never thought she would see again. The only problem was, she was running away. Shit, Trix thought. She looked back at the car, knowing she should wait for Lupe, but Trix wasn't thinking at this point. She slipped off the roof of the car, silent as a mouse, and tiptoed to the tree she had run away from. Once she got a closer look, Trix knew it was Wini. She gasped, slapping her hand over her mouth, and smiling.

Trix looked at Wini, trying to keep up with her running, eyes watering up as she looked at her old friend. As she looked at her, she remembered the night it had happened...

"Wini, why can't I go with? Sure, Lupe doesn't want me to go, but Rexy will be there, we'll be fine!" Bellatrix had whined, begging her friend to take her with.
"No, Trix. Lupe would kill us both! We can't risk it!" Wini had smiled, hugging her friend. "I'll be back in a few hours. You won't even know I was gone,"
"But..." Trix was cut off by Wini. "We're going to live together, Bells," Wini was the only one who ever called her that, "It's not like I won't come back. I promise i'll come back!" And with that Wini had left.

Trix had never forgiven herself for not following Wini anyway, she had always thought that she could have protected her and saved her, even where Rexy had failed.

She managed to catch up, finding her in an alley, cornering some helpless human. Trix knew she had to stop her friend, so she gathered as much courage as she could, and stepped between her one time friend and her would be victim.

"Wini?" She said, so quietly she didn't even believe it was coming from her lips and possibly only in her mind. "Wini?" She asked again, a little bit louder than the last time, smiling brightly. Forgetting their differences, and the fact that she was attempting to kill the person behind her, she ran up to her and wrapped her arms around her friends neck, tears brimming in her eyes. "Oh my God Wini! I missed you!" She knew Lupe was going to kill her, even if Wini didn't, but right now she didn't care. She wanted to hold her friend, hear Wini tell her they would always be together, and have her say that they'd never be alone, because it'd always be them against the world. Bellatrix held her friend tightly, scared and excited.

"How are you?" She asked in a whisper, not even really believing that she was holding her friend once again. It was unbelievable for her. She was holding her friend in her arms, probably about to die, and she didn't even care. She was with Wini, and that's all that mattered.

Brook

Brook watched everything happen and then it ran threw her head once more. She looked to Eliza knowing she must be having a hard time with what was going on. She reached her hand over to Eliza’s and squeezed it trying to give her an assuring look. “Yeah. We need to get ahold of someone. Fuck. Looks like the party's over." She nodded in agreement though she looked to Eliza “How about you go over to Bry I think she will need you” she then watched to make sure Eliza went over there then followed Lulu. “Fuck this isn’t any good, and my stress is going way high I might need to borrow a cigarette from you” as she was talking she looked up to see a women ahead of them. The women didn’t look familiar to her at all though she looked liked she was dressed up for something. She felt Lulu stop and then move off to the side hearing “shh” . Brook then felt something click in her mind. Strigoi. Of course they had to be all over the place.

She walked silently next to Lulu but then heard the women laugh "Think you can get away from me baby cousin?" Brook eyes went wide and looked to Lulu “you know her Lulu?” her eyes went back to the women in red "Thought I was dead didn't you? No... That's not it. You knew I was alive. You merely forgot about me." she heard the women, she didn’t have a good feeling about this at all. As she was about to reach for her daggers in her leg sheaths when she felt herself get slammed against a house. Her eyes went wide as she now was looking at the female strigoi up close. Brook felt the women’s arm pushing against her throat and she put one of her hands over the strigoi‘s arm and squeezed digging her nails into the women‘s arm. Her other hand was struggling as she tried to reach for one of her daggers. The women’s words where going through one ear and out the other as she dangled there struggling to breathe but once sentence did catch her attention "Did you know our Lulu here had a fiance? I'll bet she never told you that. Feel hurt now?" she coughed, she wasn’t going to let the female get to her. She finally was able to reach one of her daggers and quickly pulled it up and went to slice against the females arm but she was started to fade in and out from the lack of oxygen she was getting. She looked to Lulu with pleading eyes for help not able to choke out any words as she felt her eyes start to close.



Mace

Mace was skipping rocks not really paying attention to anything when he heard a “eep! He looked up to see Andrea and tried to hold back a laugh when she said “damn you mace! What's a boy like you doing here all alone?” “Sorry Drea wasn’t paying attention….and I am just out here thinking…” before he could say anymore he heard a scream and quickly got up. He noticed Andrea heard the sound too. "Quick Mace! I think Angel's..." Mace just ran and then he saw Angel laying there, Brylen passed out in Kitty’s lap. “What the fuck…!” he looked around and also saw a man carrying Adrian’s limp body into the lake. He couldn’t think straight…angel….Adrian. His body started shaking and he let out a scream, Mace never let his emotions get to him but he felt he was going to explode.

He ran over to the man that put Adrian’s body into the lake “What happened to him! Tell me what happened to him!” his eyes looked wild then looked around once more and then back to the man “please just tell me what happened” his voice got softer and his eyes where now having a pleading look. He wanted to go over to Angel but he knew he needed to find out what happened to Adrian.


Wini

Wini felt like she was ready to explode and attack her victim when she saw someone jump in front of her then say “Wini?” The voice sounded familiar as her eyes went over the girl that stood in front of the helpless person she was ready to feed off of. Her eyes went wide…Bells.. “Bells…Bella...” she said in a low voice, she never called her Trix always Bells or Bella. She was shaking, she was still in attack mode but she held herself from attacking her old friend. “You shouldn’t be here Bella. Im a monster…” she then felt herself being wrapped into Trix’s arms. Wini stood there motionless. Her arms to her side, she hasn’t felt a hug like that since she was turned. She for one didn’t allow any of the others to really touch her except for Gabe and Cherie at times.

"Oh my God Wini! I missed you!" she tried to hold a straight face as she heard Bells “Bella im not who I used to be. I am a killer. Your crazy for coming out here. I am not the same Wini…” she then heard in the background someone yelling her name…then recognized the voice, Cherie. Shit…she need Bella to go before Cherie came around. Then she heard another noise, someone else was nearby she looked around and spotted a teen girl then noticed it was Lupe [I] “fuck fuck fuck fuck these two needed to go” [I] she thought to herself as she heard Lupe "Wini, Don't hurt her."

Wini hissed at Lupe “For fuck sake lupe I wouldn’t hurt Bella, now you two need to go because there is another strigoi that will be here soon and if you want to live then leave” she pulled away from Bella and looked to her “I am sorry I broke my promise and never came back” and with that she gave a small kiss on Bella’s cheek and she fled to find Cherie. She never told Bella her feelings for her, before she got turned she was starting to feel more for Bella then she thought she could but everything changed after she got turned. She fled the streets and saw Cherie and run up to her “im here but I am going….im a fucking monster that needs to die. I killed my fucking baby sister!” she screamed out finally all of what happened that night was getting to her and she fell to her knees in front of Cherie ready to just give up.

Bellatrix stood, scared, and watched her friend retreat into the alley way. She knew she was in trouble by the look on Lupe's face.

"See?" She said, turning to her protector. "I told you she'd never hurt me!" Trix smiled brightly, touching her cheek. "I knew she wouldn't hurt me..." She whispered, smiling. As she walked back to Lupe, looking at her. "Look, Wini said we're in danger, so we should leave. I'll beg for your forgiveness later, and for you not to tell my father, but right now, we need to go," She looked back over her shoulder, sighing.

As Trix walked out of the alley, she looked at the people all around them, and figured they could disappear into the crowd. "Come on," She said, looking down both ways of the street. "They'll find us if we go directly back to the school. We need to find a longer way," She looked back at her protector, and realized she was taking to much of a lead. This was Lupe's job, not Trix's. "Sorry if I'm being bossy," She said quietly, walking quickly down the street, weaving in and out of the crowd. She was swift, moving along the earth with no worries...until she realized that she couldn't sense Lupe near her anymore.

"Lupe?" She asked, whipping herself around. "Lupe!" She yelled, suddenly freaking out. What if she had gone straight back to the school? What if they had gotten separated? She could feel peoples eyes on her, and she was frantic with worry. No no no...If you're teaching me a lesson, this is so not funny! She thought to herself, hyperventilating and turning in circles.

As she tried to find somewhere familiar in this area she didn't know, she just got more and more nervous. Bellatrix picked up her floor length dress, kicking off her shoes, and trying to find something familiar in the Earth. She tried to focus, trying to pick out Lupe's quiet, soft footsteps in the crowd, but either she was to far away, or Trix couldn't focus. Whatever the case was, she was seperated from her protector and she was surrounded by Strigoi, she could just feel it...

Cherie
Cherie was walking down a quiet street when she saw Wini appear. “I'm here but I am going….im a fucking monster that needs to die. I killed my fucking baby sister!” Wini screamed and collapsed at the ground. "I know... I saw it.." Cherie says slowly and picks up Wini. Even though Cherie may appear to be frail, she was strong. She carried Wini into an alley so no one would see anything suspicious. "Wini... Everything is gonna be okay. Just breathe.. Take a moment to think..." Cherie said. Cherie looked around. "You need to drink Wini." Cherie says as she brings her arm up and sinks her own teeth in, creating a gash. She thrusts her own arm towards Wini. "Drink... You'll feel better.." Cherie says quietly. Cherie takes one more look around to make sure no one is looking. They were in the shadows so no one should be looking.

Andrea

Andrea watched Mace run off to a man carrying... A body? Andrea felt sick. Andrea felt dizzy... But who was that on the field? Eating a pile of food, acting as if nothing was going on in the world. Andrea frowned. Strigoi. Andrea felt pent up rage over Angel's death that she shouldn't. All she should feel is sad at least... She wasn't Angel's friend or sibling but Andrea just felt... Furious. It could be because she loved Darius and Darius was pissed over her death but... Andrea felt this strong emotion overpower her. Her nostrils flared as her face turned red but her conscience soon overcame her. What the hell, Andrea? Calm down! Andrea relaxed a bit. Andrea just felt so emotional today. It was starting good until The strigoi came. Andrea was going to kiss Darius! But instead his sister appears and kills Angel! Andrea felt like she could cry. Andrea looked around, tears in her eyes. She needed to find Darius. Console him. She needed that kiss. The Strigoi couldn't take everything away! Not her love for Darius!

Andrea went into the woods, where she'd last seen him. "Darius! Darius where are you?" Andrea called out, her voice strained and hoarse. Her tears were heavy rivers calling her cheeks home. Andrea's blonde hair was a mess now, twigs poking out from her golden locks. Her shirt was ripped and dirt covered her knees. But she didn't care. She kept going in farther and farther, tumbling into trees as the only light came from the moon. The woods was an accident waiting to happen. One wrong step and you could fall and break your foot or fall down a hill and into the lake. Andrea didn't care though. She needed to find him and she felt the need to find him fast. But then she saw him. Crying there, the moon made his hair shine. Even when he cried, Andrea could still find him attractive. She tiptoed quietly but it was hard because leaves and twigs littered the ground. "Darius.." Andrea said quietly, her voice crackly from crying. "Darius.. I know what happened... And... It's gonna be okay... We can get through this together..." She said slowly as she stepped forward and placed a hand on his shoulder. She was looking at his back now. She gave him a small squeeze for him to turn around. "Talk to me.." Andrea whispered.
