Serena-Vampire
It was a sudden chaos. There were people everywhere running in all directions, she saw the people who were sitting with her suddenly go out running. She took off running too, grabbing Matt's hand as she did so for she had to find Scarlett.
Far in the distance she heard her name been called. The person was not a mistery to her.
"Serena!" Scarllet yelled from across the room.
"Scarlett!" But before Scarlett could even answer, she ran in an inhuman speed, pushing everyone in her way and in no time she was just feet away from Scarlett.
"What's happening" Serena asked.
"I don't know, but we have to go" Scarlett urged her.

Isaac

He didn't feel the bullets enter his body until the man that had shot him was face down on the floor, angrily, clean slashes covering his neck and face. Isaac grunted in pain, slotting a talon into the bullet hole to gouge out the destroyed lump of metal, his teeth gritted hard against his tongue. Angrily, he lashed out at Asher as he attempted to help him.

"Look you did, you stupid, interfering bastard!" he spat, clutching his shoulder as blood bubbled from between his fingers. He didn't hear his answer, as already a volley of shots thundered over their heads and Isaac grabbed Asher by the shirt, hauling him to the ground. Raging, orange eyes scanned the hall to find Taelmus gone. Swearing violently, Isaac rolled to his feet, his fists clenched, wondering what to do. They think you're a monster, whispered a voice in his head, which he pointedly told to shut the hell up. The looked on the pupil's faces as he held the gun seemed to taunt him, and suddenly he was determined to prove them wrong. His eyes fixed upon his chosen target, a huge, brute of a man who was advancing towards Scarlett, accompanied by a few of his comrades.

He dispatched the smaller men first, surprised that Asher was joining him despite his outburst just seconds ago. They worked together, air conjured from his wingbeats to feed the fire at Asher's fingertips, taking the humans out with ease. Soon only the larger man was left.

"He's mine," Isaac almost laughed, before lunging forwards. Just as the man had raised his gun towards Scarlett, who seemed unsuspecting, Isaac jammed his talons deep into the flesh of the lower back, cutting straight through his body armour. He ducked the next attack from him, a brutal swing of the fist. But he hadn't seen the other soldier behind him.

Smack. He felt the but of a gun ram into the back of his head, and was flung forwards towards the ground. Dizzy and seeing only black for a few moments, he looked up to see the gun now raised towards Scarlett's head. The man squeezed the trigger.

Without thinking, Isaac shot forward. A terrible bird screech tore through the hall as all six bullets the man fired tore through his chest and neck, leaving trails of fire through his insides. In one last swipe, he gouged out his attacker's eyes, hitting the ground with a cold, dreary thump. He coughed, and a surprising amount of blood spurted through his mouth. He choked, sounds becoming distant, the world becoming cold. He pressed a taloned hand to his neck as blood filled his lungs, making it difficult to breathe, making it impossible to think.

Idiot, said the voice again, before Isaac collapsed.

((Oh... Isaac already posted earlier? I was waiting for you before I could post jonathan, but I guess I missed your post. Er, I don't know what to do.))

((EDIT: after looking back over the posts, I think I might have to drop this. I could try to slide myself back in, but with the amount of stuff I've missed, I don't know if it'll work. Help?))

Don't quit on us, Buggy!

Lilith - demon

She jumped at the man who had destroyed her precious ipod. Fully in her demon form, he was an easy target. Before Lilith knew what happened, the man crumpled to the floor. He had dark burn marks across his face, and was motionless.

Lilith was shocked back to reality. Her rage gone in an instant. He was...dead.

"Wha- no... I- I didn't," she stuttered as she backed away. She slowly returned to her human form.

She turned to run, but collided with another man with a gun. He grabbed ahold of her and held the gun to her head. "You stay right here, miss," he said.

Lilith couldn't comprehend anything anymore. Her body was completely numb. All she could think was, well I guess there's something besides music that can calm me down.

Asher- demon
Isaac was down, leaving me facing a rather large and angry human glaring at me.I smiled at him and backed away as he pointed is gun at me. 'You didn't really think I would back away as when you've just shot my best friend, did you?'
The soldier must have been well trained because he didn't even flinch whenever I transformed to my demon form. I lunged at him, knowing that the heat radiating off my body would melt any bullets approaching my body before they did too much harm. I remembered how Isaac would laugh and jokingly describe me at a time like this, 'Like a demon outta hell.' I laughed as The human backed away fearfully and I sent flames chasing after him, finally he was cornered. I made sure that my flames would keep him trapped and made my way over to where Isaac was laying, changing my form again. 'Dude! wake up!' I yelled in his ear, 'you can't just lay about here, I'm getting all the fun!'
I noticed that a vampire was standing nearby, I yelled at her, 'He just saved you didn't he? Hurry up and heal him!'
The vampire rushed over to help him after I had yelled at them, I noticed that Isaac had started to regain consciousness and I muttered to my self, 'Hang in there man.'
I looked across to where the human had been- he was gone. Without thinking I ran off to find him, I was shot in the chest twice. Pain ripped through me as I tried to keep my calm, there was already too many demons that had lost it and I didn't want to join their ranks. With one hand I pressed on the wounds to reduce bleeding and with the other I set alight everything around me with white flame. I heard yelling from behind the stage curtains. It soon stopped. I suddenly realised that I had actually killed someone, I who had told Isaac off for threatening to kill someone earlier. I was a hypocrite. A murderer. I took my hand away from my chest and a spurt of blood came pouring out. I forgot about the calamity around me, a small voice in my pitch black mind crying Someone! Someone save me! Help!.
'Dude!' I heard a call from somewhere, 'Dude, Asher!' I heard a roar.
Brought back into reality I looked up to see who had brought me back.

((I'll see if I can figure out what's going on and find an excuse to shove Jonathan back into things as well as an explanation of why he's done nothing up to this point. It's my own fault for not reading all the posts as they were made anyways, but if anyone could help I'd be much obliged.))

May I try and bring Jonathan in? ^.^

Scarlett

Even with super speed, heels were definitely not the thing for running. Scarlett nearly twisted her ankle a few times, but after recognizing the violin girl that led them into a tunnel, she sighed in a bit of relief, covered my a flow of easiness when she saw Serena. Her best friend soon reached them, and made her place next to Phelix. They were out of view of the humans. For now.

And then she saw him: Jonathan was struggling with a man, that was having slight success on over powering him. "Dammit!" Scarlett complained under her breathe. She just had to go and help him, didn't she?! Running fast, she reached Jonathan a give one hell of a kick in the stomach, that matched with the surprise element, and the previous injuries caused by Jonathan managed to knock off the guy.

"Thanks," Jonathan whispered.

"Eh, you'll be owing me blood." She answered him and ran back to her position with Serena. They had to run, before Isaac ran out of ideas and actually had to shot the guy he was holding.

Alex, werewolf

I hugged Koree, scared by all the blood surrounding me. All the blood...The blood, the blood, the blood the blood the bloodthebloodthebloodbloodbloodblood....

"Alex!" I snapped out of it, finding myself still tightly hugging Koree. She was frowning up at me, obviously not happy with the fact I was even touching her. "Sorry," I muttered, quickly letting go. I looked around again, trying not to notice all the motionless bodies. Trying to see if I could find anyone I knew still standing, I looked all around, glancing briefly at each face. That girl was in my history class, and that guy was in math with me...I had asked that girl out on a date two years ago, but dumped her immediately. I looked out the window, trying to see if more humans were coming, but what I saw made my breath catch in my throat.

The moon was full, and I was staring straight at it.

I could feel my skin start to twitch, my arms and legs start to shake, my stomach start to bubble. "Oh god," I moaned. I hadn't willingly changed in seven months, and it hurt badly to do so during "that time of the month." I moaned again, my skin tingling as fur erupted all over my body. My jaw, aching, opened wide as my teeth elongated and grew sharper. I twisted, falling to the floor in pain as my spine worked itself into my new body. The pain suddenly faded into a cold hunger for violence deep in my belly. I licked my lips and nose, looking around me, this time deliberately focusing on the blood. With a glance at a shocked Koree, I threw myself at the nearest human, snarling.

Crap! Crap! Crap! Crap! There were people fighting every where, running around in the chaos. Blood was everywhere, and boy could she smell it. She had just pried Alex off of her when she realized he was fighting against the smell too. Ezra had disappeared amongst the chaos, but she could smell him nearby. After a week with Ezra, she knew exactly his scent. That was when she noticed Alex starting to tremble and shake. His body started changing, the wolf taking him over. She was shocked at first, to see him in his animal form, but she could sense the blood lust in him.

She had to do something. "Ezra!" She screamed. She knew she was going to need his help. When Alex turned his attention on a human, Koree lunged at him, and pulled his giant hairy body to the ground. He snarled and fought, trying to get to the human. She grappled with him a good bit, and finally managed to get to her feet, trapping him in a bear hug.

"Damn it, Alex! Calm down! I'm gonna get you out of here!" She saw Ezra right about that moment, and almost lost focus on pulling Alex out of there.

"Ezra! We're leaving now!" She screamed at him. He had turned into a full demon already, but she knew him like the back of her hand. "Let's go! Walk ahead of us and keep them off of us." She told Ezra, still fighting with Alex, who was trying to bite and scratch at her.

Lol writewatiwant, didn't you read my posts? =_= It's okay though, lets just say she randomly ran off after Isaac got shot after saving her. Yeah :lol: Or that could have taken place before or something.

**Sorry I haven't posted in ages guys**

Matt - Vampire

Serena gripped my hand tightly and pulled me into a cave, one I knew quite well. I was grateful to Serena, the fight had made me petrified - if I'd gotten involed, I knew I would be one of the students lying on the floor, dead.
The humans were bloodthirsty, and stupid. They thought they could win. Not even their best technology can match their natural abitlities.
I held Serenas hand tighter.
"Are you okay?" I asked her.
"Yeah, I'm fine", she replied, still panting from running so hard.
I could feel the panic she didn't say to me, through the bond. Something I had forgotten about. She was truly terrified, and I knew she could feel the same emotions coursing through my soul.
"It'll be okay", I assured her. I turned my back on the mayhem, and walked purposefully into the tunnel.
"No!" screamed Serena. "We have to stay and fight!"
"We are no use, we'll just get killed, once the humans know they failed, they will launch a full scale attack, and we need to be ready." I replied determinedly, and continued into the darkness.

**Hope this is okay.**
Mo. was here. :) mwahahaha

Yes they are shooting at us now. ;)
Yeah, it could get interesting if someone gets kidnapped, especially since Phelix is friendly with quite a lot of our characters! We all could go on a rescue mission! :D
I will call moo in an hour if she hasn't replied to see what she says because right now she is probably doing homework... :\
