The Dark Months: War

[Miss Gates]

"Then you'll die,"Rachelle said. "As I recall you were the one that came to my doorstep, begging for help so if you don't want to take my advice, see if I care and go die."

"RACHELLE!"Zoey hissed.

"Oh shut up Zoey!!!!"Rachelle yelled.

[Atticus]

Lucian looked at her shocked as he looked back down "i...i...fine i'll do it" he said moving so he's right near her as he gulped and looks down abit "as long as it will be quick death for them" he said folding his arms and looking to the side but he felt really weak at the legs and didn't want to show it cause he knew this Rachelle will laugh at him.

[Miss Gates]

Zoey shook her head. "You don't have to hunt,"she explained. "I could go to the old hospital and get some blood packets for you so you don't have to kill."

Rachelle shook her head. "Its better when the blood is fresh..."

Rachelle looked at Ward and her eyes grew wide with fury. "How dare you let a vampire hunter in my house!"she hissed. "I am a pureblood! What the hell Zoey!"

[Atticus]

Lucian turned to Zoey smiling "you....you could do that" he said moving right upto her "th...thank you" he said really happy as he turns to Rachellle "i dont want to hunt humans i dont want that i'd rather have blood packets" he said moving to a chair to sit down as he relaxes back mainly because he wouldn't be able to stand up any longer.

[Miss Gates]

"No problem."Zoey reassured Lucian.

Zoey turned to Ward. "You can stay the night,"she said. "But if you don't kill us, I can't guarantee your protection from the other vampires and Rachelle."

"Rachelle,"Zoey said as she turned around and faced her. "No eating."

"I can eat if I want to."Rachelle hissed.

Within a blink, Zoey had Rachelle pinned agaisnt the wall by her throat. "You're a disgrace to the vampire nation. You will listen to me!"

"You're just a half blood!!"Rachelle screamed. "You can't tell me what to do!!! I'll have your head for this!"

"We'll talk about this later."Zoey said and released her.

Rachelle gasped for breath and rubbed her throat. Vampires did breathe, but they didn't have to. But once you cut their circulation off, its hard to breathe.

[Atticus]

Lucian looked up at the both of them "theres no need to start fighting" he said looking towards Ward "you'll be fine here.....i'll make sure of that" he said slightly more brave than userull due to the fact he in his mind he is now immortal but knew there are weapons out there that can still kill him but if he made sure that the vampire hunter stayed safe maybe he good be one of the rare good vampires.

[vexfox]

"Thank you very much." Ward was obviously not afraid of death or becoming a vampire and nobody knew why...

"Oh i'm Ward just to let you know, i realize i didn't answer when asked."He told Zoey ignoring Rachelle. "And one last thing i'm not a vampire hunter, i'm simply a traveler..."

[Miss Gates]

Zoey sighed. "Its the only way to get something through her head."

Rachelle barred her teeth and hissed. "I swear Zoey..."

"Shut your trap."Zoey said.

Zoey turned to Lucian. "I'll go get the blood packets. I'll be back in four hours."

Then, Zoey turned to Rachelle. "Behave yourself."

[Atticus]

Lucian nodded "thank you so very much Zoey" he said politely "I wish you well on the journey be very careful they might be trying to put up a bigger stand now" he said pointing backwards meaning the humans outside as he leans his head back to relax *so hes called Ward and is only a traveler....theres got to be more about him he can't only be a traveler* he thought very suspicious of Ward.

[Miss Gates]

"You're welcome."Zoey said with a smile.

"You disgust me."Rachelle said.

Zoey shook her head. "One day Rachelle,"she said. "One day you will learn."

Then, Zoey left the house, closing the door behind her. Rachelle looked at Lucian. She didn't know why Zoey was so protective over the humans. Zoey was a vampire now and she had to leave her human life behind someday. Rachelle shook her head. "Half bloods."she thought.

[vexfox]

Ward was watching carefully the female vampire who was called often Rachelle,"Your angry, why would that be?" He said as he took his hat off and set it on a nearby piece of funiture.

He looked at Lucian but didn't know what to for him so he turned back to Rachelle.

[Miss Gates]

"Well for starters,"Rachelle said. "I just got this house and I had to fight for it. What did you have to do? All you had to do was ask for help. Same with him. Secondly, I don't like your kind because you're always trying to kill us and some people are just plain stupid. Lastly, I don't like how Zoey is so naive."

[Atticus]

Lucian kept his head leaning back "you know i would have thought her being angry is an easy question" he said not even looking at Ward *god is he stupid* he thought to himself as he puts his hands behind the back of his head "this isn't even a very good house anyway the wallpaper is disgusting" he said towards Rachelle.

[Miss Gates]

Rachelle gritted her teeth. "You don't think that I know that? I was going to change it, but you know with the war going on, I don't think that is possible."

[vexfox]

"My kind?"Ward thought back to earlir in his life, it was mostly blurry but he didn't ever remembering like he belonged."I don't think you've frazed that quite right, i heard Vampires have a very acute sense of smell and can tell their own from a human. Can they tell a human from something else?"

He wouldn't say more to Rachelle but just let her ponder what he had just said. In truth he wasn't entirely human, not demonic like a vampire or a werewolf either.

He had to ponder his place in life, he relaxed and leaned against a wall. Ward wasn't one for too many words more of actions.
