Light in the Dark (Vampire/Human Romance)[Members Needed!]

[Ellanuma]

Pamela sat silently, watching Shane and Carter embrace. it was hard to believe that only a few days before Carl had been their enemy. Now they were grieving. At least he died giving life to someone else, she thought grimly.

Vitriol bowed his head, his shoulders shaking. he looked like he was crying, but then he raised his head to the moon and his eyes were tightly closed and the line of blood still rolled down his chin. He opened his eyes and they were a deep red. "When I try and save a patient, there's always a drawback. I can save this patient, but at the cost of another." Vitriol said in a quiet voice. "The hardest choice, is deciding which patient is already at death's door. The even hardest part, is when you know that they both have an equal chance...." he breathed. A hawk flied over their heads, flew in a circle, then lazily glided down until it landed on Vitirol's shoulder. There was a chain necklace with a key around it's neck and it's left wing was entirely cyborg. A small black helmet had three glowing bars and three glowing blue dots under his eye. He cooed and nibbled Vitriol's ear and Vitriol gently stroked underneath the hawk's neck. "This is Syfe. He's an old friend of mine. Do not eat him." He growled at the others as he stood up. His legs trembled and he leaned against a tree.

Carter turned away from Shane and went up to Vitriol. "Thank you," she said, very greatfully. "I owe you my life." Her eyes were gleaming with gratitude. She reached back and took Shane's hand.

Vitriol closed his eyes. "No. It was nothing but another job to do. Another patient to save..." He sighed and his tensed shoulders relaxed slightly. Syfe cooed and fixed his beady amber eyes on each person, taking them in.

Shane stood where he was as Carter spoke to Vitriol. A smile spread as he listened to her, he took her hand as well. after each of them had spoken he took his chance to express his gratitude as well, "I have to thank you as well, I'm not sure what I would have done without her." he said thankfulness filling his voice.

[Shiko Hayashi]

Vitriol gazed at Shane with half open eyes that seemed to be looking at something far away. "Remember that at the cost of a life, your Carter was saved. Never forget that, or your friend who died will be forgotten in history as well...." Vitriol said tiredly.

"What if he wasn't our friend?" Carter asked, kinda pissed at his attitude. She knew that the whole reason he was a doctor was to preserve life, but if a doctor felt so much strong emotion at losing a patient he was either good at his job or on suicidal watch. She felt HORRIBLE that Carl had died for her but that doesn't change what he had done to her in the past. She lost everything because of him, and yet she had gained everything too. She had gained Shane. Carter knew it was wrong to treat the man who saved her life like this, but she felt confused at why it was so personal.

[Shiko Hayashi]

Vitriol sensed her attitude and he pushed his own down. "It doesn't matter. what's in the past is in the past. Be grateful and remember that he saved your life, child." He said fiercely. His eyes flared and the topic was dropped.

[twilightchick4444]

Carter's eyes flashed. "How dare you think I'm not grateful!" she said, angered. "I know what he did. I know what type of person he was before he offered to save my life and I know what type of person he chose to be. I know who he was before I was a vampire and I know now after he turned me." She was confused and upset and didn't know what to say. She let her feelings come more freely now. "I am grateful he saved me and I don't need someone telling me what to feel!" she hissed. She was confused out of her mind and barely knew what she was saying, but that doesn't mean she doesn't feel it.

[Shiko Hayashi]

Vitriol was silent, his piercing eyes staring straight at her. He clenched his teeth and bit his already bleeding lip, controlling his own temper. "Get rid of that temper and respect your elders." He hissed slowly and deliberetly. "If it weren't for me being here, you would of been dead. Just be glad I decided to save your life where I could of left you to die." he hissed, keeping a firm hold on his temper.
