The Random Vampire Story [1]

Colt-


Colt winced at the site of the scars. If that vampire was still alive and Colt ever got his hands on him he would kill him.

"Well, it's kinda like drinking a bottle of water I guess. Though it sometimes taste better then water." He smiled trying to think of a way to explain it, "I guess you just get used to it after awhile and it gets harder to explain."

"Oh," Caiden said laying back against his arm. He wrapped his arm around her and stroked her hair. "If the werewolves wont come here why don't we just stay here until they give up?"

"Cause the wont give up no matter what, they'll wait, and wait." He sighed.

"Oh..." she sighed and closed her eyes settling back into his arms, her eyes closing slightly as she grew tired again. Why was she so tired lately? The thought was brushed away as she felt Colt lifting her and carrying her to a room. She clung to him as sleep threatned to claim her, she felt her fingers grip lax and she slid through into oblivion.

Colt walked back out to the main room and looked at the other vampires that were now sitting on the couch. Brent leaned back with his arms crossed.

"I still don't think you are being smart." He hissed at Colt.

"Brent, my business is just that, mine. Now all of you better keep your hands and teeth off, or help me I'll kill you." Colt said looking everyone one of them in the eyes.

"You just keep her in check." Brent hissed,

"If you try harming her, and she doesnt' kill you, I will. I've told her that if any of you try anything to feel free to kill you." Colt replied, Brent stood up.

"You are siding with a human," Brent said,

"She wont be for long, now, get some rest." Colt spun around on his heel and went to the room that he had put Caiden in. He sat down in a chair and closed his eyes sitting next to the door ready to clobber anyone that came in.

When Caiden woke the next it was in the middle of the night, she smiled when her gaze locked with Colt's.

Colt-

Colt smiled "Hello." He whispered, she looked like she was going to say something when there was a noise outside of her room. Colt put his finger to his lip and walked to the door. He could smell the vampires from earlier. "Stay here," He whispered, turning to the door. As he was opening the door he felt her standing behind him. He turned around and looked at her. She was smiling, he just shook his head and turned back around. He quietly snuck out of the room and looked around. THe other's had left for something, it was just him and Caiden. He saw something move in the living room. He handed Caiden the knife that was in his pocket. They slowly walked into the living room not making a sound.

Caiden followed Colt close, ready to help him with whatever was in there.

Slade came out at them and Caiden jumpped sighing heavily, "Slade! you just sca-" Colt's hand clamped over her mouth in a gentle yet firm hand telling her to stay quiet.

"We're not alone," he breathed and shoved Caiden behind him closer to the wall.

Colt moved towards the kitchen slowly. He could smell Slade following, and feel Caiden right behind him. He pushed the door to the kitchen open and stepped in. Caiden followed, Colt didn't know if Slade did because he suddenly smelt one of the vampires close and then felt a knife cut across his arm. He jumped away and towards the light fixture. He heard a gasp and he flipped the light on. One of the vampires had Caiden and was biting her neck keeping her arms pressed to her side. Colt jumped towards him, his teeth coming out of her gums. He shoved the vampire back and pounded his face in. He spun around. This had been the only vampire thank goodness. He ran over to Caiden, one hand was clutching her neck where she had been bitten.

Caidens knees shook and she felt them give as she collapsed into Colt's arms. Her vision went fuzzy then back to clear but black dots obscured her vision. Colt sat her up on the island so he could get a better view of her neck. But she couldn't see him or Slade, just those black dots.

"Is she going to be okay?" she thought she heard Slade ask.

"I'm not sure, the vampire managed to get a lot of blood out of her."

Colt-

Colt growled inwardly. He should've pulled her along with him. He should've known she was why they had come.

"Go get a washcloth and get it wet with warm water." He told Slade. Slade hurried out of the room and Colt put pressure on the wound to try and slow the bleeding. "I'm sorry." He whispered, Slade came back in and he applied the compress to her neck hoping to stop the bleeding.

Caiden shook the apology off, "its not your fault, I should have seen that coming."

"I should've pulled you along with me, I should've known thats why they came."

She reached out groggily and put her hand on his shoulder, "its not your fault." Then she turned to Slade, "where are the others?"

"Vampires are out hunting and James went to the grocery store. He should be back soon."

"Thanks goodness there was only the one. I wouldn't have been able to stop the bleeding before getting rid of them even with Slade's help." Colt said stroking Caiden's hair. He pushed some off her forehead and the pulled the bloody compress off her neck. He tossed it in the sink where he would clean it later. The bleeding had stopped and he carefully wrapped hit with gauze and tape. "Let's get you to bed so you can sleep, that way your body will remake all the blood he took."

Caiden wanted to argue, and almost did, but she knew it wouldn't have done much good, so she thought up the one thing that would keep her awake.

"Lets wait til James gets back, I'm hungry." She was sure he didn't have anymore food in his house.

"Fine, but if you start drifting off to sleep your going to bed." Colt said helping her off the island and into the living room. He sat down and pulled her close. He stroked her hair as Slade sat on the rocking chair a few feet away. "Everyone will need as much strength as they can get before we leave here." He muttered to them both.

Caiden knew that she was in iminate danger of falling asleep, the only thing stopping her was the fact that she was hungry. She'd be concerned about being so tired if she hadn't just been bitten by a vampire.

They watched the TV guide channel, nothing really exciting and the scrolling of the names were giving her a headache.

Suddenly, a bottle of IB profane was half a foot away from her face, being held by Slade, "you might want this."

"Thanks," Caiden said and took a dose and a half before settling into Colt's arms again.

Colt flipped the tv off, then back on. He hated being bored. The door opened and he was on his feet in a second. Brent and the others walked in and he sat back down pulling Caiden close.

"We didn't startle you did we?" Brent laughed,

"Go look in the kitchen." Colt snapped, Brent did, when he came back the smile wasn't on his face anymore.
