(1x1 between Amiko and Heroes) Blood On The Water

[Amiko]

Zeke smiled tiredly "I just wanted to know how she was doing tonight is all."

When stephan pulled back he cleared his throat nervously "I'm sorry about that. I really shouldn't have done that"

The girls all whined and moved closer "but arxen you proomiisseeeddd." Krysta growled softly and rubbed her head feeling a sharp pain course through her head from all the whining and smelling every girls hormones around her before glancing up at arxen with her normal cold eyes "why not go have your fun tonight. I can see you some.other time" she shrugged slightly and glanced at one if the girls who was eyeing her and smiling.

[Wolf Prints]

The vet smiled. "She's not showing any sighns of the disease, and she's doing better on her shoulder." he said. "You look tierd." he commented, looking a little concerned.

Viper would have blushed, if her heart still beat. she looked away, murmuring, "You're fine." she felt horrible as she remembered all the past times she'd done something like this, hooked up with someone, regardless of race, and then killed them. she sighed, feeling a little unhappy as her memories hit her.

Arxen watched her a moment, wanting to hug her. "You sure?" he murmured.

[Amiko]

Krysta shrugged walking away ignoring the girl who started following her. She had lost a battle with herself and felt like it was time she moved before she did anything stupid.
The girls squealed and clung to arxen.

Zeke chuckled softly "I'll live. I'm glad she's doing better though. She's a great dog and I'd hate for anything to happen to her."

Stephan tilted his head sensing a change in viper and lightly tilted her chin up to make her look at him. "You're sure?"

Leo stood up from.the swings and was about to say something when he caught Stephan's scent. He slowly looked around and saw him on a bench with viper. Leos stomach turned making him.feel sick

Trinity had managed to be stooped by a few men on her way home and was trembling slightly.
"Well well what's a pretty thing like you doing out here?"
Trinity looked away and wrapped her arms tightly around herself feeling uncomfortable.

Blaire breathed in deeply and slowly taking in all the scents and sounds in the forest.

[Wolf Prints]

Arxen sighed, then turned to the girls. "Let's hit the bar." he said to them, giving his signature smile and wink.

Allie followed Leo's gaze, and she saw the sadness in the she-vampire's eyes moments before Stephen turned her head. she felt a little prick of pity, then turned to Leo, murmuring, "We should go. I promised Alpha I'd patrol tonight. Want to come?"

The elderly vet smiled, nodding. "Dalyce is with her at the moment, and she's over the moon to see him."

Dalyce continued to pet Karlie gently, hearing the slight hum of voices.

Rikker was laying across a bench when he heard the men confronting Trinity. He didn't like the tone they were using, so he levered himself up on one elbow, the better to see what they were doing.

Hikaru and Kauru crept back up to blair, much as they'd done in the past, and both jumped at her from behind, trying to startle her. They liked her, yes, but they were also very playful. they stood side by side, grinning.

Viper took a trembling breath, trying to steady herself. "Yeah,it's fine... " she smiled, although she couldn't quite hide the regret in her eyes.

[Amiko]

Stephan let a soft wolven whine escape him as he touched vipers cheek softly and smiled weakly. To him, he was the problem, not her past. He slowly stood up and looked at viper "until you wish it I will not touch you again." He bowed slightly and stood up straight again before walking off. 'God I need a drink. I don't know what in was thinking"

The girls all squealed happily and stayed close to arxen.

Krysta stopped walking and spun around to stare at the girl who'd been following her "WHAT?!"
The girl giggled and touched krystas cheek "poor little lab rat went and got soft. I guess....that means its time I finish what my ancestors started"
Before krysta could think she felt a sharp pain on her neck and fought a scream feeling fire in her veins. She had been free for so long she forgot the pain of the little experimental drugs that were forced into her.. Krysta hit the ground on her knees when the girl took the syringe out of her neck and breathed shakily.

Zeke smiled and nodded before thanking the vet and leaving. He rubbed his forehead and pushed his headache away as he slowly headed home ignoring everything around him in his half sleeping stupor.

One of the men touched Trinity's cheek and glared at her when she flinched away. The boys eyed her slowly before one grabbed her chin and yanked her head up kissing her roughly. Trinity jerked but found she couldn't free herself. One of the men in the group was the man from the bar that trinity had thrown out. "Boys, let's have our fun with this stuck up kid and teach her to respect others."
Trinity tried getting away but she was too weak.

Blaire screamed and shot up into the tree she was leaning against breathing shakily.

Leo nodded "anything to get away from here"

[Wolf Prints]

Viper didn't have a chance to reply before he left. She had no clue what she'd say, even if she had had a chance to say something. She stood up abruptly, giving a little growl. Instantly, the panther brushed past stephen, not even looking at him, running to her side. She clipped the lead shank to her collar, mostly for looks, and lead the cat off towards her place.

(Arxen's going to have some hunting to do...)

Arxen slung his arms around the nearest girls and walked towards the bar, chatting playfully with the girls.

Rikker gave a feral growl, standing up and stalking over to the men. "I believe the young lady ought to have a say in the night's activities, don't you, boys?" his eyes glinted darkly, and his muscles clenched. He hated seeing women mistreated, like these men were doing to poor Trinity. his jaw knotted, as he attempted to restrain the wolf within from beating each and every one into a bloody pulp.

The twins chimed, "Gotcha!" Then they tipped thier heads, not expecting her to nearly scale the tree. "Gee, didn't think we scared you that much."

Allie nodded, getting off of her swing and heading off into the woods surrounding the park.

[Amiko]

The men in the group glared at riker "back off kid this doesn't concern you!!!" Trinity had tears in her eyes. Her first kiss had been stolen from her and now, all she wished was she was like riker and the others. So she could have stopped them. Trinity's dark blue eyes slowly started to turn a lighter color as her anger grew. She trembled and yanked her head to the side sinking her teeth hard into the man's hand breaking the skin and making him scream. He yanked back hard enough she took a chunk of of his hand and smacked her hard. Trinity winced and hit the ground holding her cheek but spit out the mans blood and flesh she'd bitten off along with her own blood. "Kill them both boys. Then let's have some.fun with her"

Stephan sighed as he walked. When he caught the smell of blood it was sweeter than any he'd smelled before and made his wolf jerk trying to break free inside him.

The girl watched as Krysta hit the ground and drug her off by her arm humming softly.

Blaire dropped out if the tree and landed in the ground on her feet "after the life I've lived you get cautious.... Maybe too cautious." She shrugged and glanced at the twins "you ready?"

Leo walked beside Allie letting himself relax only a little and take everything in around him.

[Wolf Prints]

"Trin. Stay down." he said softly, his eyes glowing the colour of his wolf. "Ah, that's rich. kill them? I'd like to see you try, you worthless scum. I wouldn't even bother with you if it weren't for her. She's worth more than you ever will be!" he growled, practically vibrating with fury. He could feel his control slip, and with a little flash he was in his feral form, lowering his head with a snarl and standing protectively over Trinity.

The twins nodded, Hikaru smiling. "You don't have to worry." he murmured. "We'll protect you." added Kauru. "Shall we?" they both chimed.

Viper sighed unhappily, kneeling down to bury her face in the cat's ruff. The panther purred, and Viper murmured, "I can't tell him... but I can't let him think it's his fault. Next time, I'll tell him... " she trembled, feeling an empty void in her chest. "No, I could just leave.... Vanish, without telling anyone where I go... That'd save alot of pain for both of us..."

Arxen walked into the bar with the girls, nearly missing the choking scent of mutt. He shrugged, cutting off his breathing easily, saying to the girls, "First round's on me. Drink up."

[Amiko]

(Sorry yesterday was busy and when I got home I had to work on something for my birthday)

The men all backed up and ran off screaming. Trinity lightly touched rulers muzzle in thanks but kept her eyes averted as they slowly turned dark blue again. She shakily pushed herself up and walked off towards her small apartment holding herself together and doing her best to not cry.

Blaire chuckled softly and shook her head "in all these years you two still haven't changed" she started walking not feeling like running back into town and to her house.

Stephan sat ignoring everything and drinking slowly.

The girls squealed and all kissed arxens cheeks before ordering their drinks.

[Wolf Prints]

It's perfectly fine. Happy birthday! My 18th's still 2 months away. )
Rikker followed her in his wolf form, making sure she was safe. then, when she was home, he continued on past her house, his eyes stormy. he couldn't get over the faces of those humans, so exultant, (What if she was his bonded?)

"Why would we?" they said, smiling and walking one on iether side of her. Thier shoulders often brushed hers, and thier smiles were easy.

Arxen ordered a drink as well, smiling as they kissed his cheeks. This particular crowd of girls all knew who and what he was, but they all adored him anyway. He refreined from killing them, in return for thier silence on the topic. He sat at the bar, close to two blonds.

Viper walked out of the clearing, back towards her house. her thoughts were preoccupied, and she sighed unhappily.
