vamp or wolf

Where exactly are we, Chinchilla? Do the vamp clan all live togther or something? Also do they hunt humans and stuff?

Theo

I looked up from the floor, trying my best to talk through the scorching ache that burned my throat. I blinked wearily at Ren, who's grin died slowly on her face.
"Hello," I said quietly, trying not to sound rude by ignoring her.
She looked up at me with a frown. "You look ill, Theo."
"I don't feel so great," I agreed, managing a weak smile. The flame intensified even more, reducing my throat to tatters.
I ran my pale hand through my hair with a sigh, blinking wearily again. I had never felt so thirsty, ever. But the horrific thought of killing someone to satisfy the ache was weak compared to the joyous one in which the pain left me all together. I would have to drink some time soon, whether I wanted to or not.
My hand tightened into a tight fist as someone entered the room. I didn't want to talk to anyone, couldn't they get that? I looked up at the person with a cold glare.

Moo-The vampires have this huge mansion, but there are little house around it that the vampires can stay in. And it's your choice on what they hunt, but if they hunt a human they can't kill or turn them into a vampire.

Grimy- sure as long as you don't mind going on a hunt.

I decided that when ever a vampire is hunger there eyes will flash red.

Ki~

I was so happy to see Micheal again, it seemed so long since he left. I felt bad for him, about his whole family, and something told me that wasn't the entire truth, but I didn't want to push him into telling me if he didn't want to. That's when it hit me. . .we could never be. . .I was a vampire. . .and he was a human. . .what if I hurt him?

He gave me a funny look "Ki are you okay?"

"Yeah, just peachy." I replied with a forced smile. His eyes soften for a moment we could always tell when each other were lying.

"Ki. . ." he stopped as if he just thought of something.

I smiled at him, maybe this could work out. I thought, maybe I could stay in control. . .as long as I'm full when ever I'm around him I'll be fine.
-----------------------
Ren~

Theo eyes flashed red for a second, I smiled kindly. "Care to join me for a hunt?" I asked happily.

His eyes lit up. "Sounds like fun." As we were leaving the house I wasn't paying attention and ran into Milo (were friends rather you like it or not! Jk it's okay if were not just tell me and I'll change it.).

"Ah!" I squeaked as I feel back. "Ugh! I hate being trapped in this size!" I cursed, it was hard to live in the body of a six year old for all of eternity.

Theo, and Milo just laughed at me as I got up and fixed my pig tail ribbons.

"So Ren, where are you and Theo going?" Milo asked with a chuckle.

"Hunting. . .you want to come along?" I asked.
-----------------------------------------
Jay~

"Cause if we didn't kill them, they would kill us. And all the weak humans in the world." I huffed.

"But, maybe they didn't have a choice." Bree insisted.

"Bree. . .it doesn't matter. Whats done is done, and they have no shred of humanity left." I growled.

"Calm down guys." Aballa sighed as she walked. "You are acting like a bunch of pups." she scowled.

"Aballa, this vampire was here for a reason. . ." AnnahLease interrupted.

"So what is that reason?" Aballa asked.

"We don't know." Frederick replied.

Chinchilla - thanks, and it's fine we can be friends

Mitch (or Milo, whichever suits you)

I sat on the grass for what felt like an age, trying to think of something to do.

Eventually I gave up and stood slowly up, lately I had taken to doing things such as this slowly, it felt oddly nice to take things at a different pace once in a while.

I walked to the front door, still slowly, but I was so distracted by concentrating on slowing the speed of my limbs I didn't notice the small blur of Ren on her way out the door.

She ran straight into me and, well, seeing as Ren is half the size the rest of the vampires, she fell straight back onto the floor.

I noticed Theo was also standing behind her, we both laughed as she stood back up and straightened her ribbons.

"So Ren, where are you and Theo going?" I asked with a chuckle.

"Hunting. . .you want to come along?" she asked.

I grinned, "Sure, I need somthing to do. What are we hunting?"

"Well I was thinking-" Ren started, but was interrupted by Theo.

"Could we just hunt some animals today?" Theo said quickly, he looked as if he was in pain.

"Sure, I guess so." Ren had a confused look on her face, but she seemed fine with hunting animals today.

They both looked at me, then I realised they were waiting for an answer.

"Yeh, it's fine with me," I blurted out.

Ren regained her usual smile, "Let's go then."

Michael

Neither of us was telling the entire truth about one simple thing. I could tell she wasn't entirely fine, and that it wasn't just a one of thing, either. That must be something to do with how things have changed in town. But she wasn't pressing me about the truth of how my family had died, so I wasn't going to force her secret out of her.

I smiled at her, deciding to put everything mostly on the table, "Alright. That's all we don't talk about though, okay? Those two things." She seemed to understand, neither of us felt good about lying to the other. It was unnatural. But maybe things would be okay if we just acknowledged that there were a couple of secrets that had to stay unspoken. Even between us.

"You hungry?" I asked, "We could get something in town, if you want. Grandpa's not expecting me home for another couple of hours."

I'd missed her more than anything else in this sleepy little place, and I was glad her family hadn't moved or anything. Maybe, just maybe I'd be able to get through everything, now that she was here. Maybe I wouldn't end up like my grandfather, more or less just waiting for a vampire to finish off my 'career' once I passed my prime. For the first time since they died, I was starting to think that I might still be able to have a normal life.

Theo

I was thankful to get out of that predicament. I was glad they hadn't made comment on my choice for prey; I couldn't bear to go any longer with the insane burning.
I led the hunt, trotting ahead of the others desperately searching the air for any kind of scent. When the dusty, warm smell of deer met my nose I took off in that direction immediately, not checking to see if the others followed behind.
I knew we were straying dangerously close to the wolves' territory line, but the only thing that concerned me right now was my thirst.
I paused as the cracking of twigs ahead and the gentle sound of chewing announced the presence of prey in the area.

*Sorry all out of ideas*

Jay~

With the last bit of grim truth hanging in the air, I decide that it was time to get out of here. "So how about we go and finish patrolling the area?" I suggested trying to lighten the mood as I left.

We decided to go towards the river since it was just flooding, and to make sure no humans were caught in it. (Werewolves have to protect the humans form other things than just vampires.)

As we were scouting the wind carried off from the vampires territories, and we caught the scent of vampires. . .it was to close for comfort. We followed the river till we saw them. There was a small girl, and two teenage boys there. My patrol waited in silence waiting for them to make one mistake. . .
------------------------------
Ki~

"Sure." I replied happily, I could just choke down the food, I thought happily.

We walked the short distance to the pizza place, I was kind of irritated walking at the slow human pace, but I was to happy to care. As we got there we order some pizza, which use to always make me happy. But I was kind of dreading trying to eat it.

"So what interesting things have happened in this sleepy little town?"

I wanted to say, 'Oh nothing much just been in the middle of a war, but you know same old same old.'

"You know same old same old. Nothing much changes in a small town like this." I lied.

"Yeah, I see what you mean." he nodded, as are pizza came. He smiled at me "Ladies first." he smiled. he was always a gentleman.

I took a slice and ate it the best I could, while trying not to barf.
---------------------------------
Ren~

Me and Milo followed Theo in the hunt. The wind was flowing away from our territory, so we had to be careful of our scent. As we were hunting, I had a strange feeling we were being watched. I glanced at Milo and he nodded, and Theo flicked his finger as understood. We stopped, and I concentrated for a second making an illusion of us three and hiding us from view. I had the fake me go towards the river and play around, as a low warning growl erupted from the bushes.

-Robyn Andrea-

The scent filled the air. For some reason, vampire always smelled like blood, rotting flesh and sulpher to me. Maybe that was one of the reasons we were always fighting them: to get rid of the stench. But I doubted it.

I raised my muzzle in the air slightly to get a better whiff of the foul odor. And something struck me. The scent wasn't coming from where the monsters stood across the river. It was coming from a few yards away, in a bush.

From the personal training I had gotten from the old healer, who I had called Grandfather, I could smell blood pretty well. The reason for this lesson was that where there was blood, there was an injured person, and there was need of a doctor (or healer, in my case). And when vampires smelled like blood to my nose, they were fairly easy to track. I wasn't nearly as good as Jay or Of course, I never tracked them. I never liked the smell of rotten eggs and flesh, so I wouldn't willingly get close except on scouting missions. Then I suffered through it.

But this was wrong. It wasn't coming from the vampires. It wasn't coming from where it was supposed to.

I crouched down and, pulling my ears back in the defensive position for wolves, and gave a low growl. I didn't talk much. But I did warn my pack, my people, my kinsman.

I hoped they would take the hint. The vampires were at the other side of the river, so far north into the territories that it was only about six yards wide. Close enough to find a way across and attack. Close enough to hear us. Clsoe enough to--

Vaporize at the touch of a blowing leaf?







[Question: What do the werewolves hunt? As in, deer or boars or something, or do they just go to WalMart and pick up a few dozen pounds of meat?]

Wow I didn't even think of adding a prison! Nice job on the map! It makes everything
less confusing.

TexanWriter you deserve a ninja and dancing elephant!

can I still join, please

sorry...for being late...hey, can i change my character??? i will use frederick but can i change his name or something like that??


Frederick

I sat down by a branch looking at the river before me wearing a hood covering my hair and my wolf ears that was appearing over my head. I looked at the vast forest that surrounds us and wonder.

I sniff the air and smelled the first scent of vampires near the rivers. I sighed before i went down and walked to the river and saw a girl growling by tehr iver. I know that the vampires are close by. He rears were down and she was in a defensive position. I looked at her trying to call her but instead, she attack me.

I held ehr arm before it could reached me.

"Take it easy, "i shouted, "I know the vampires are at teh other side but there's a river. Vampires hate running water."

she gave me a narrow stare before she went back to where she was.

"Lucky for you, you're not cautious..." she said. I shrugged before i walked to the edge of the river. She was right, the scent of vampires are close but i only sighed and began inspecting the rivers.


*hey, i was talking to Andrea...Can anyone pull me in..

Michael

I'd only taken a few bites when I lowered my slice of pizza. I could see she wasn't enjoying it, and certainly didn't want to be eating pizza at this stage. I didn't quite understand that, we'd always come here for lunch when I'd been in town, and she'd never acted like this before.

"What's wrong?" I asked, concern flitting across my face as I leaned forward, "Are you sick?"

She paused for a moment, as though considering telling me something, and then she shook her head, "No, I'm fine. I guess I'm just not really that hungry."

I realised it had to have something to do with her secret, so I didn't ask any more. But I couldn't imagine what could have made her look sick around pizza, it had always been her favourite food, after all.

Pushing my plate aside, I smiled at her, "Alright then, so pizza's out. What do you want to do then?"

Jok~ yup yup yup ; )

foxfire~ I don't mind at all = )


Ki~

"Um. . ." I had a hard time thinking of what to say, here he was acting all nice, and I was here trying to. . .feel human. . .Did I even like him any more? I couldn't tell I had given up my human feelings so long ago I couldn't remember them. I suddenly felt sad. . .Wait sad! My emotions were still there just really deep and I was planning on finding them, I smiled happily.

"You still there?" he asked while waving a hand in front of my face, I laughed.

"Of course!" I chuckled. "Lets get out of here." I replied happily as I grabbed his hand and ran off. I couldn't help but notice how he flinched when I touched him, I use to always be warm, but now I was cold like death. . .

"It's the perfect time of day to. . ."
(Sorry Billy I have no idea what to have them do.)
-----------------------------------------
Ren~

I thought that they would fall for it, but one of the wolves started to growl as if they understood.

"Ugh I thought they were suppose to be dumb." I whispered to Theo and Milo.

They all howled now. "I'm guessing they heard you." Theo whispered back. "We might not be able to stop a fight."

"No they won't cross the river." Milo assured us.
--------------------------------------------
Jay~

I howled with rage when I heard that whisper.

"So this was just an illusion?" AnnahLease growled with anger

"There is a rumor going around that one can make illusions." the newcomer sighed. He wasn't in his full wolf form, so he wasn't to worried. But something about him seemed wrong, I couldn't tell just yet.

Bree

"Illusions?" I asked. "One of the vampires can make illusions? God, do all the vampires have weird powers?"

"Duh, Bree." Jay growled.

I growled a little in my annoyance. "You didn't have to be so mean about it."

"Hush, you two." AnnahLease growled. She sniffed the air cautiously.

----
Yeah, I don't know what else to do.

"No, they won't cross the river." I assured Theo and Ren.

Theo turned to me, "how do you know that?" he asked.

My mind was suddenly flooded with memories, but I managed to suppress them and answer Theo's question, "I've fought their kind before, and if they know what's best for them they won't purposefully come into vampire territory when they know we're so close."

Theo looked doubtful but didn't press the point further, Ren on the other hand just looked at me weird. "What?" I asked.

"Nothing," she answered and turned back to the river.

The werewolves were still in the bushes on the other side of the river, probably talking about what to do just like we were. If there was one thing I had learned from fighting a werewolf before, is that you should never underestimate them.

---------

Sorry, I'm new at this kind of thing, I don't know where to go from here.

Michael

Something was definitely wrong. She didn't seem as happy as she had before, and where I'd normally felt a slight tingling under my skin at the feel of her warm hand in mine, now I felt something more like a jolt of horror at the feel of that ice cold hand. What was going on?

"It's the perfect time of day to..." she started saying, apparently oblivious to my worry for her.

My phone rang in my pocket. She stopped to look at me, and I gave her an apologetic look, "Sorry, two seconds." I fished it out, answering it, "Grandpa."

"You still busy in town, Mike?" The old man's voice asked, "Find anyone you know?"

"Yeah...I just ran into Ki, why do you ask?"

There was a long pause on the other end, then my grandfather took a deep breath, "Then I'm sorry about this, Mike, but I need you to come back now. Some of our, uh, friends in this area aren't playing nice with their friends." I understood what he was trying to say immediately - something was brewing between the vampires and werewolves, and he didn't think his phone was secure enough to say so.

I sighed, "Alright, I'm on my way back." I hung up and looked at Ki, "Something's come up...I've gotta go home." I bent forward, kissing her cold lips lightly and briefly before I turned around and started walking back towards my grandfather's house. "See ya." All in all, far from the best day we'd spent together.
