Isaac / Alan

Is was not long after, that the three had set up the wire trap outside one of the first year classrooms. It consisted of a long piece of wire, a hook, and a nice puddle of leftovers found in the bin at the bottom of the trap, on the floor. It was simple; tug on the other end of the line as an innocent newbie set foot in the wire hoop, dragging them through the puddle of rotten food, face first, before leaving them hanging upside down.

"My favourite part is when they hit their teeth of the ground. Priceless," cackled Isaac, beating his wings against the air excitedly as he gripped the other end, muscles poised for action. Suddenly the shrill call of the bell announced end of class, and a shoe stepped through the door. The two demons and the alan heaved on the wire and a loud crack sounded through the air as the victim smashed their teeth of the ground.

Isaac's eyes widened and he dropped the wire, doubling over with laughter as Professor Webber lay on the ground, covered in rotten foodstuffs and looking rather displeased indeed. The vampire teacher lunged at them as the tree students ran cackling down the corridor.

**Maia and Loren aren't connected with many people right now. They're wrestling outside if you want him to run into them...**
Just another quack spouting psychobabble.

Phelix:

"Well, fine then," she said and tensed.
"Ready..." i began and before i could say go, she was spinning in a flurry forward. I laughed out loud and sprinted after her. I didn't expect to win, i was a zombie, but maybe i could at least make a friend.
"Wahooo!" i whooped and slowly, i grew on her. We passed the cafeteria, and kept running, fortunately i didn't need to breath. We zipped outside, me laughing, and collided with something and, well soft. "Woah!" i said and fell on my back roaring with laughter. It seemed that we had broke up a competition of somebody else's. Two people were grappling and trying to pin each other down.

Loren, Alan.

I had won, as I was letting up Maia off the ground someone ran into us. She fell to the ground. I narrowed my eyes at the person. I made sure Maia was safe. I dusted my wings off. I got into a stance that I could easily fight, and fly from.

"What was that for?!"
"Look I--"
"That was uncalled for!"
"I'm--"
"Get out of here!"
"Loren! Be nice!"
"I don't want to be nice!"
"You might make a friend if you pretend!"
"I don't want one, I have you!"
"I know! Just be nice!"

This person was staring at us. I didn't like this person. Not one bit. I wanted them gone. Still Maia insisted that I was not mean to this person.
All I can hear; "I me mine, I me mine, I me mine". Even those tears; "I me mine, I me mine, I me mine". No one's frightened of playing it. Everyone's saying it. Flowing more freely than wine. All through your life; "I me mine".

Jonathan, zombie

Jonathan walked down the hall, scowling as he scratched at the bandages around his head. He wanted to take them off, but then the gash in his head (which would take at least another six months to heal) might start to fester, and no one wanted to hang out with someone with a festering wound across their temple. And then there was the problem with flies. That had to be the worst part about his transformation; the flies never would leave him alone.

He sighed and kept walking, feeling very out of place. He had been a zombie for about a year now, which meant he hadn't been at the school for more than a few months. A half-eaten apple some careless student had dropped lay out on the floor in the hall. He kicked it dejectedly. How were his old friends, his human friends doing back at school? He still got e-mails from them occasionally, but it just wasn't the same as talking to them face to face, which he was still too afraid to do. What if they found out what he was and panicked? What if the fear drove him mad and he hurt someone?

Lighten up, it's not so bad, he told himself. You don't want to end up being the stereotypical emo undead monster guy.

He passed by a demon pinning down another demon (he could only tell what they were by the burned holes in both of their clothing), then a couple of girls coming towards him.

"We find Andy and Alex, then we find Chris. Then we hunt, I have to hunt, no matter what." The girl sounded a bit hoarse. Probably a vampire, he thought with a slight wince. He'd accidentally gotten on the bad side of a few vampires already, mainly because he was a zombie and a newcomer. Fortunately he hadn't been the victim of any pranks or gotten beat up yet.

Scarlett

I stopped abruptly, leaving Serena a bit shocked. "What?" She asked me. I pushed her aside, and walked a few steps to my left turning the corner.

Ohh, so that was form where the smell was coming from. A really, really, good smelling... what, zombie? Whatever. He appeared not to be as tasty as to Serena. "Seriously? He smells awfully," she snorted at me. How could she think that?! He smelled better than ever!

I closed my eyes for an instance, and took a deep breathe. Huge mistake. Huge, huge mistake. I ran too fast; I was by his side in less than a split second. I had my lips touching his neck lightly. Snap out of it! My mind screamed. And it was like I did. I took a step back. "Sorry." Gee, what had I almost done!

Phelix:

I got up to my feet and brushed off the dirt.

"Get out of here!" one of the two girls yelled. They were both angry, and... very pretty, especially the angel like wings on their back. I immediately took a step back and began to fell uncomfortable. It sounds weird, but i didn't fell "good" enough to talk to them.

"Um... sorry, just-" i began.
"It's ok," the other said. " She's a little moody.
"'least she not dead." i said jokingly. the girl laughed. The other one just scolded at me, shifting her feet back and forth in anger. "Name's Phelix," i said and held out my hand. I sighed. "Yeah, its weird, touching the dead." She smiled and maybe, a caught a glimpse of amusement in the other girls eyes.

Jonathan, zombie

Suddenly one of the vampires had rushed to Jonathan's side. "Whoa!" he yelled, taking a few steps back as her lips touched his neck. She'd taken a step back as well.

"Sorry," she said, sounding a little ashamed.

Jonathan blinked in confusion. "Wait, you're sorry?"

She nodded. "I'm just really thirsty."

"So that wasn't, you know... you weren't trying to attack me or anything?"

The vampire looked annoyed. "No, I thought I made that pretty clear, so if you're just going to..." She breathed in and her eyelids flickered.

The zombie gave her a nervous glance.

**he might let her get a drink off him if she pleads with him for a while.**

Scarlett

"Sorry," she interrupted her talk again. "I get cranky when I'm thirsty." Which should be considered normal, right? Well, hum, yeah.

"Hum... okay..." He glanced around, a bit nervous, and she smiled at him. Scarlett forgot Serena was even around, and she took one step forwards, towards the zombie again, someone she didn't recognized.

"I'm Scarlett," she handed out her hand for him to shake.

"Jonathan," he took her hand, and she could feel the blood pulse underneath her fingers, that were lying just above his wrist. And the smell... the sweetest, most persuasive scent ever. It was like she was drunk on it, and she felt gloomy. She got closer to him.

"Say, Jonathan, wouldn't you let me have a little of that hot blood?" Her voice was as soft as velvet, like you could grab it like a piece of fabric, but it was so soft it would just fall off your hands.
Piglet: How do you spell love?
Pooh: You don't spell it. You feel it.

Matt - Vampire

He rolled his eyes at them - hoping they wouldn't see through his "I don't give a damn" act.
He stared at the three of them, hoping they would let him leave.
"Okay", he said boldly. "But, I'm a little thirsty, and well, if you don't give me what I want - I might not want to do what you say".

He stood, perfectly still, to see what they would say.
Mo. was here. :) mwahahaha

*woah, this exploded!*

Lilith - demon

She had to admit, the prank had been spectacular. Even though she wasn't very fond of Isaac, and Asher could get on the most seasoned demon's nerves, it did feel good to be bad.

Professor Webber, however, saw it differently.

"You three get back here this instant!" he yelled from where he hung upside down, virtually unable to do anything about it.

"Come and get us, Webby!" Lilith cackled as she ran. Her pulse raced and her mind was solely focused on what else she could pull while she felt like this. For the time being, she could care less where her ipod had gone.

The three stopped after they had rounded a corner into another hall, and Webber's shouts had died down.

Asher and Isaac high-fived and Lilith leaned against a wall, contemplating their next move.

"So I hear there's a couple vampires hanging around nearby, and I also hear one's particularly thirsty. Anything you boys think we can do about that?" Lilith asked.

Isaac rolled his eyes and Asher didn't look eager to include Lilith in another scheme. It wasn't unusal, those two usually worked alone.

Lilith turned and started walked down the hall, flipping one of her long golden braids over her shoulder. She looked back at the boys and sighed. "Well then I guess I'll have all the fun. Enjoy your day, boys."

It was only a matter of seconds before the boys surpassed her, running down the hall. Lilith grinned and sprinted after them.

*hope that's alright, the vampires were Scarlett and I think Serena was with her*

Jonathan, zombie

The zombie's light brows rose. "What?"

"Well," she purred, "you aren't human, so you won't get turned. And I am so thirsty. Don't worry, I'd try not to take so much that it would weaken you."

Jonathan shifted uneasily. "Won't that hurt a lot?"

"Not too badly. But if I don't get a drink off someone soon, I'll have to go hunting. I don't like having to hunt, and neither do the humans."

He thought of his friends in the town nearby and stiffened his resolve. "I suppose... fine. Just a second." He sat down on a bench sitting next to the wall. His eyes clamped shut, he nodded. "Go ahead. I'm ready."

Andy, Demon

I screamed in rage as I pounded at the door, fire flickering angrily along my arms. Finally, the door started to gain a reddish tint. With a deep breathe, I drew my fists back. With a scream, I poured all the energy I could into my arms as they connected with the door. With that energy came a tremendous blast of strength and fire, and he door bent just enough for me to get my fingers under it. I tore it open, stalking int the small, ugly dorm. I stared at the werewolf lounging in a chair, my breath steaming slightly. "Where the hell IS HE?!" I screamed, lunging for her.
Is he dancing with a little boy in spandex?!

Serena
She watched how Scarlett penetrated the zombie's skin. And it was then that she had to stop breathing, the smell of the blood would definitely bring someone she didn't quite like nor wanted to get out.
Scarlett took sip after sip, drinking slowly but enjoying while Serena's throat kept getting dryer, her pulse starting racing, she could feel the flames burn her throat.
"Are you finished" She asked, clenching her teeth, he voice hoarser by the second.

The zombie boy stared at her in awe, she had never really bieng in contact with zombies but he didn't seem a bad guy. Newsomer, yes, all nervous, but bad guy, no.

"I'm Serena" She said, forcing out a smile.

"Jonathan" He said, while Scarlett just kept drinking.

***Woohoo, I finally finished with her set**
