Sara turned to just see Draconis walk out. She got up, brushed herself off and walked out of the room. Looking into Draconis's direction and was about to speak before seeing the semi look on his face. Shutting her up instantly and going for her shoes. She then realized she didn't have a jacket..

Sara didn't care until she thought she heard thunder in the distance. "Sounds like a storms brewing.... From the south-east..." Sara said in a trance-like motion, her eyes still the clear light blue of the sea. Looking towards the door and walking close to it. Not noticing that all eyes were now on her...

Draconis pulled the shades down the bridge of his nose and looked over them. This was odd. Sara's eyes were no longer the light green that they had become, but were now bright blue. It was like Alisa's vampire eyes, the inhuman shade of the blue waters off of a sandy beach. But Alisa never had trances, at least not like this.

"Sara, are you okay?" Draconis said with an air of genuine concern. When he didn't get an answer, he said, "Alisa?"

Sara didn't answer to either.. she heard something else and felt like the door was hot... she looked down at the knob and strangely enough got out of the way as another bullet came whizzing right through the door. Missing everyone. Sara ducked into a corner, Her eyes going right back to the green they have always been, as she covered her head with her arms. two more shots rang through the house, as well as three windows were shot out and one crashed through.

A black werewolf ran into the hall and was facing straight at both Draconis and Sara. It's eyes red with hate. They knew that the two of their pack were dead and were now out for revenge... they really didn't care about the bounty on both their heads... they just wanted to rip the two apart....

Sara cringed as her chest felt hot and she nearly cried out just before the werewolf lunged towards Draconis. Sara was the easy target... and no one knew that another one was waiting to crash in through the front door to catch them by surprise as the one already inside would act as a derversion to lure the Vampires away.

Another loud crash could be heard as one of the other three came in. One still scouting for any backup the vampires might have, while the last was waiting for the signal to ram in through the front door.

The other werewolf met up with the main one and edged towards the four. Sara got up off of the floor and wedged herself into the corner of the hall. Watching the black Werewolf drool and lick it's lips in her direction. Making Sara wince and edged further into the wall, feeling sick that the 'leader' was making those moves on her.

Fumbling through the things that were on a nearby mantle. Sara grasped a small pointed paper weight and threw it like a baseball and it hit the Black one square between the eyes, making it bleed and blinding the werewolf become blinded. The other however lunged in a fit of rage right towards Sara. Not caring that it had left itself wide open for an attack

Draconis grabbed one of the wolves by the leg as he lept for Sara, he whirled around and threw him against the wall, knocking him out cold. He kicked up his sword with his foot and lept for the blinded werewolf, and slashed for his midsection. He connected, slicing him in half and reducing him to dust. Just then, the other werewolf crashed through the door, throwing it on top of Draconis and knocking him accross the room. Draconis threw the door off and found the werewolf leaping right for him. The adrenaline for his outrage had already taken its tole, and he swung to the left, and the wolf flew into the wall head first. Draconis stuck his sword through its spine and the wolf vaporized. The fourth werewolf jumped onto Draconis' back as it lept through the door. Droconis fell backward and got the wolf off before plunging his sword right into its heart, turning it to black ash

The wolf he had knocked out started to come to. Draconis wanted information, so he walked over to the wolf and stuck his shoe to it's throat.

"Who, sent you!" Draconis' fury rung through the air with every word he spoke.
"Please, don't kill me!" A low, raspy growling voice was the wolf's answer.
"Then tell me, who sent you, NOW!" He pressed harder on the werewolf's throat, making it so he could barely breath.
"Some phantom, near a graveyard, twenty miles east of here. Please, I beg you, don't kill me!"
"Not on my life!" Draconis yelled, and slammed his sword into the wolf's midsection, sticking the sword in the floor. He pulled it out and looked around. "We have a new destination it seems." He said very calmly, and put his shades back on.

Sara felt overwhelmed. and thought to herself. 'Mental note, don't piss off Draconis.' as sara moved slowly towards where he stood. trying not to look around at the now complete mess of the house they had only been staying at for a few hours.

sara didn't know exactly.. but she could bet that Draconis would want to go to this graveyard... she on the other hand didn't... but she was stubborn and wasn't about to show it. besides.. she knew who wore the pants in this situation.

Moving over and looking outside, Sara could now see the rain starting to fall. Giving the land a strange misting appearance. Sara quickly ran outside and lifted her face to the sky, looking at the clouds as they moved. Sara felt at peace in the rain and felt that her fear was washed away as well.

Sara turned and waited for Draconis to come out as well. 'Might as well get it over with. I just hope I don't have to meet any ghosts or demons... I've had enough diversity of horror movie monsters for one day.' Sara thought as she felt the amulet chimed again and the mist flowing around her again. Her eyes changing back to the light blue and she could see that there was something in the bushes...

Walking over to the area where she thought she saw the shadow. Sara saw that it was in fact a Black hawk. Picking it up, Sara felt that it needed some help and ripped her shirt slightly. Bandaging it's left taloned foot. It had gotten into a scrap with a younger male and lost.

Not knowing whether the hawk would hurt her or not. Sara still held it gently and didn't show any fear towards him. the hawk chirped and tried to fly out of her arms. but the left wing wasn't soo good. Sara also tied that up as well. Holding the hawk under her arm and went back to the small clearing to where she could be seen clearly. "So, Shall we be off? Or are we going to wait till the rain stops?' Sara said as the hawk chirped louder under her arm.

Draconis had seen enough, they had to leave, rain or not. "We're leaving. We've been here for far to long as it is, and we have no idea how many werewolves are actually out there hunting us down as we speak."

"Then you'll probably want these." Mara came back out from the back room, she was visibly shaken from what had just happened, but she was carrying two parkas, one for Sara and one for Draconis.

"Thanks." Draconis would have greated this gesture with a smile, had he been in a better mood, but he graciously accepted the gift as best as his current mood would allow. He went to give Sara her parka and saw the hawk. There was something odd about the bird.

"Leave it here." Zewd suddenly spurted. "You two have enough on your hands, and I assure you we'll take good care of your new little friend." In reality, Zewd felt the same way Draconis did. Black hawks weren't exactly common for the area, and she wanted to be more safe than sorry.

Draconis walked out into the rain heading through the maze of trees in the forest. The smell of rain in a forest always soothed his nerves, and he felt himself able to relax as he turned east to go to the cemetary the werewolf had mentioned.

After giving the hawk to Zewd and placing the parka on, Sara followed as best she could behind Draconis. The thunderclouds and treetops made the area darker than usual. It was like walking at dusk and the rain didn't help either.

As the storm worsened, Sara had to put a hand up to help keep an eye on Draconis as she fumbled a few times over exposed tree roots. She was also feeling rather hungry, since she never really got time to eat. Too much had happened in the day that left no time for sustainance.

Sara winced and made a slight scream when the a loud thunderclap sounded, as the sky went white with Lightning. Ducking down to the ground and closing her eyes. It was loud and her head rung from the thunder. Another sounded and was just off to the west as Sara looked back up and didn't see Draconis. It seemed that he just might be more less swayed by the sound than Sara herself. She quickly looked around as the rain was now literally pouring buckets on her. Mother Nature was in a bad mood it seemed and Sara was caught up in her tantrum.

Sara quickly felt lost in the down pour and stood under a tree. She felt cold and strangely hot at the same time. A loud howl rang through the area as Sara felt her amulet become bright. the pulsation began again and The spirit wolf from before came out and stood in front of her. She back up a bit and moved the parka's hood so that she could see. The wolf just walked silently towards her and sat down. Allowing Sara to hug it. It panted when she did so and after Sara let go they made a dead lock in eye contact. Sara's eyes changing to the same color as that of the wolf's

Sara blinked and got up, placing her hand onto the back of the wolf as it tracked the scent of Draconis for her. She smiled when she finally saw Draconis's outline in the distance as the wolf disappeared back into that amulet. She was a bit tired, but nothing a good meal and a nap would cure.

Sara ran towards where she saw Draconis's outline i the rain and nearly tripped on a exposed root and fumbled, hopping a few times before she got her balance back. Grabbing Draconis's parka just as another loud thunder clap sounded across the sky. Making Sara burrow her face into Draconis's back.

The rain came down like a thick early morning fog, and the parka Draconis was wearing was hardly doing any good anymore, he was soaked. Despite the fact that he could see in the dark, it became really hard to see. For a while he could hear Sara's footsteps behind him, crunching in the wet leaves, but as time passed he became concentrated on their path and didn't notice when she fell behind. Draconis stopped for a moment to think. It was late, they hadn't eaten in almost 24 hours, and it was pouring rain outside.

Sara's footsteps were suddenly hearable again, and she grabbed for the back of Draconis' parka, nearly knocking him forward. Despite this, he was glad to have her company. If I remember correctly Draconis thought, There should be a wild blueberry patch up ahead. Another flash of lightning and another loud boom followed his thoughts. Sure enough, some three hundred yards ahead, they ran into an expansive space filled with wild blueberry bushes, all filled with luscious ripe wild blueberries. Also per what Draconis remembered, there was a large hollowed out redwood on the edge of the glade. Unfortunately the redwood had fallen, but it had broken far enough up the trunk that it was far enough off the ground to allow a small space for two people to sit and stay dry. It was loud with all of the lightning and the rain, so Draconis reached back toward Sara and pointed at the patch, then pointed at the tree. Draconis himself was extremely happy that they had found shelter from the storm, but they weren't alone.

Sara followed as best she could. Getting tied up in a few bushes but generally got out okay. The rain was now very hard to see through and she felt a few hail stones. They were little.. but the way the storm was going. They just might become bigger. Sara sneezed a few times before grabbing two good handfuls of blue berries she picked and put them into a handkerchief she had found in one of the parkas pockets.

After bundling the berries up. Sara looked around and could barely make out Draconis as she looked towards where he had said the tree was. She quickly ran to that exact spot and ducked into the tree.. taking off the hood and shaking out her hair. It was still wet and it clung to her face. She moved a few stray strands and looked at Draconis as he followed her in. She wanted to remove the hood of the parka and get the now soaked hood off of him. Since there were streams of water flowing from the front.

About to lift off the hood. Sara sneezed and shivered. She was soaked to the bone and felt the ill effects about being wet outdoors. She could now see her breath and held her body tight. Looking at the ground now ashamed of going out and helping the Hawk... but she felt as if the hawk needed her and the notion passed.

Quickly looking back up, Sara smiled weakly and took back out the blue berries that were in her pocket and dropped them suddenly.. she has cut her finger on a sharp part of one of the twigs that had blueberries on it... She was about to put it to her mouth as a instinctive motion. but stopped and looked at Draconis... He was a vampire after all... Was he thirsty in the slightest? and would this little bit of blood be any help?

Sara pondered over it and just shrugged and offered her finger, that was now almost fully covered in blood. Trying to see Draconis's expression through the sunglasses and the hood. Moving closer as she kept her eyes on him. Not hearing anything but the rain and hail stones pounding on the tree bark outside their hiding place.

The rain appeared to come down in sheets, but under the hollowed part of the fallen tree, everything was dry. Sara put her bleeding finger in front of Draconis, even though he wasn't paying much attention until she did. "Unless you want to become a vampire I suggest you put that away." He said calmly. He knew all too well what blood lust can do, and if he so much as got a taste he'd bite down. Unless Sara was absolutely sure she wanted to be a vampire as she was in her old body, Draconis would avoid drinking so much as a drop of her blood.

There was another brilliant flash of lightning and another loud clap of thunder, but looking out from their small hide-a-way, he thought he saw something standing next to one of the trees. It was weird, he couldn't see anything there before, but only until the lightning came did he see an outline of someone. He shrugged it off and looked back at Sara, she was shivering. Draconis moved closer and wrapped his arms around her. Despite him being a vampire, he still gave off body heat, and he hoped that this gesture would help warm her up.

Sara looked down at her bleeding finger at Draconis' words and sucked hard... She'd stop the bleeding herself and after she felt it stop she quickly took a piece of her already torn shirt and tied it around the cut. Just realizing that she had just been hugged...

Looking up into Draconis' face, Sara winced in the darkness and when the flash came, she saw him not looking. He was still wearing the sunglasses and she reached up and took hold. Smiling weakly as she attempted to remove them. Some how, His eyes were becoming a comfort to her. They made her forget her surroundings and Sara wanted to look into those same eyes... She didn't know it yet.. But she was falling for the vampire.

Sara waited for a response to her movement before removing the glasses. She didn't want to make any move that would make things get 'difficult' between the two. She was still shivering and felt like she'd best sit down. The ground was wet however and she had to take off the parka to sit on the ground.

Letting go the the glasses and slipping out of Draconis' arms, not by choice, and started to take off the parka and revealed her soaking wet self from under neath the parka. A gust of wind blew straight into the hiding place and made Sara drop the parka and hold herself. She sneezed and nearly fell to the ground. Water droplets flying everywhere from her hair as she sneezed and fell.

Draconis grabbed Sara before she hit the ground, and laying out his own parka laid her down on it. He took off his sunglasses and put them into his pocket. It was easier to see with them off anyway. It was easy to see that Sara was freezing, so he put her parka over her as a cover, to try and hold in what body heat she had. He needed to get a fire started, it was really the only way to get Sara warm. Picking up his sword, Draconis found some semi-dry wood on a tree that was overshadowed by another. He cut off a few branches and took them back to the hollow. He then cleared out some of the dead leaves and pine needles and set the wood up. Using two sticks, and a lot of friction fueled mostly by his inhuman capabilities, he was able to start a small fire. It was far from a roaring flame, but it was enough. He could have sworn that out of nowhere he saw Alisa in Sara's face. It wasn't hard for him to fall for Sara like he did for Alisa, and he was doing so all over again. He sat next to Sara's head so he could keep an eye on her and the fire.

Sara went three shade of red as Draconis held her for that short period of time before being placed upon and under his and her parkas. Sara did start to feel the effects of the cold and looked out to see that Draconis had left. Coming back just as quickly with wood. She guessed he was going to make a fire. She was right and when the fire was burning as bright as it could, Sara watched as Draconis sat beside her head. She propped her head up and placed it on his closest leg to her. Not placing it down in case he rejected her movements. She just wanted to get her head off the ground and on something at least soft.

Sara shivered once more as she kept her head just a inch off of Draconis' leg. It was a bit tiring. But she'd endure it if she must. She could now see her surroundings and a surprisingly familiar markings caught her eye... they were smudged out words... But the heart around them was still recognizable. She looked at that spot and she felt something hit her like a tonne of bricks form the back of her head. She winced and shot forward as she went unconscious. A bright glow from the amulet was the only thing that showed that she was still alive.

The light of the moon encased the two as they laughed into the darkness, They stopped at an old tree, Still blooming with flowers but was soon to succumb to it's age. This would be the last year it blossomed. A sign of true loves devotion to one another.

Walking towards the tree, the couple held each others hand when a small downpour came out of the blue. The lady wearing a nice blue and green dress and the man, in gently attire. The two still laughed as they embraced and kissed during the clouds and moon danced in the night sky. Their eyes glowing in the moonlight. A kiss to signal true loves desire was what these two happened upon. They swore upon the final blooming of the tree they'd never be apart.

And so, He took her and the embrace lasted a long time. Crimson now stained the green collar of the woman's dress. as she let out a gasp of fear and pleasure. She knew, but never knew what it would truly feel like. Her hair falling from where it was pinned up and the two became one in
