The Breed

(This'll be a little long.)

Naomi~

Dammit! Dammit! Dammit! Naomi thought as she ran in the direction of Monanoke. Monanoke has been caught by Innocence and Jace! Jenna has been caught by her brother and Darek. Thoughts ran through Naomi's head. All her ex-friends are taking more and more people dear to her. First Jace and the guys, then her parents, and now her human friends. Naomi gritted her teeth as Jace and Innocence came into veiw. Jace nearing the helpless, passed out Monanoke, hunger in her eyes and Innocence holding Monanoke in his arms.

Naomi jumped next to Jace and held a dagger to her back. "Don't do it, Jace." Naomi growled in her sister's ear. Jace stopped. Frozen. Naomi smiled, showing her vampire teeth.

"Back away from the girl." Jace did so, growling and backing away, the dagger still held against her back

"I'm not afraid to kill you sister." Naomi laughed, as Jace retreated. Naomi turned her gaze to Innocence. "Drop the girl and maybe, just maybe I won't kill you." She cocked her head to the side, as her eyes glew a vibrant red. Innocence layed Monanoke down and lunged and Naomi. Finally some fun.

Naomi smiled as Innocence cut a deep gash into her arm. She quickly spun and stabbed him in the back. Innocence let out a cry of pain before falling to the ground. Tears fell from Naomi's eyes as the vibrant red in them dimmed. She walked over to Monanoke and picked her up. Throwing her over her shoulder, she took off in the direction of Jenna.

Hold on Jenna. I'm coming. She thought as she ran.

Monanoke-

Naomi ran away from them- unaware that Monanoke's neck had two small holes side by side, crimson liquid dripping out of them.



*Sorry its short!*

Name- Jared
Race- Vamp
Age- unknown
Team- Breed
Background- All he can remember is that the one girl that he loved died because of a vamp and they changed him.
Appearance- Black short hair, tall and has startling green eyes
Personality- Impulsive, quiet, cut-off, he is smart and logical ( at times) but he acts a lot with out thinking.

**Sorry, most of this is Jenna rambling on in a random conversation with her own head...**

"Sam!" I cried. "Sam, what the hell are you doing? Let me go!" I struggled, but of course, I couldn't.

Dammit, a voice inside my head told me. You could have chosen to take martial arts but you just had to go do drama after school instead.

Oy! I told my conscience. I wasn't expecting this to happen, was I? Okay, think Jenna! If there's anytime to start thinking about anything except how cold Ophelia must have been when she died, it's now!

Why must you always bring Hamlet in? My conscience groaned.

Oy! Okay, think Jenna! What to do if you're attacked...

I didn't scream. I shouted, at the top of my voice. "Help!"

Good girl. Now what? it sneered.

I should really be wearng stilettos, but, you know... I told myself.

"Sorry," I told Sam. "It's for your own good."

I kicked him between the legs. His grip loosened slightly.

I looked at the rogue beside him, who made a lunge for me.

"Oh no you don't!" I said, and by reflex, my fist flew at his face, straight into his nose.

But by this time, Sam was revived and ready again.

"Now would be the time when one of your friends has to come and save you. Like always." Sam said.

"That's not fair Sam."

"Isn't it?" he snarled. "You made me like this! If you hadn't been so stupid."

"I'm sorry," I said, flinching as if the memory caused me physical pain. "I'm so sorry. Please, don't so this Sam! You can stop, I know you can, the people here, they can help you, they can cure you."

He pinned me against the wall.

"I can't stop," he said, desperation in his eyes.

(Sorry it took me a while to post. There's a lot that's been happening, lately...)

Drake

I noticed that she held my gaze, but forced herself away.

And now I missed her eyes...

I shook my head a little, trying to break that trance she had on me. It was hard.

"Alex will live, as will the others," I told her softly. "They're probably in their rooms, resting, as we speak."

Naomi~

Naomi layed Monanoke down right behind the stairs and grabbed her dagger. She silently crept around the stairs to see the situation. Darek was standing behind, Sam as Naomi prosumed, who had Jenna pinned to a wall. Naomi growled to get their attention. Darek stared at her, then Sam. A small smile played across Darek's face, as Sam glared at Naomi.

"Let go of Jenna. If she's your sister, then why should you send her to a world of darkness like the one your in?" Naomi smiled slightly, a mocking smile. "Don't you care?" Sam growled and Darek lunged. Naomi's eyes flashed a bright red quickly as she stabbed Darek in the stomach. He doubled-over as Sam lunged at Naomi. Naomi dodged the blow. At the same time her eyes glew red again, and she noticed that this would be harder than the others.

( Should I kill Sam?? Or will he run??)

(Don't kill without permission. Let him run.)

**It's up to you. Either way it's an interesting little plot bunny...**

I watched, breathless as Naomi and Darek thought. They were both amazing, then again, everybody except me seemed to be this evening.

Sam turned back to look at me.

"Don't do it Sammy," I whispered as he bared his teeth. "Please."

"I bet that isn't what you said to Heather is it?" he said. His voice was barely recognisable, it was rasping and dry. "Bet you were overjoyed for her."

"Can't you see what you're doing Sam? Heather's happy where she is, but you're not."

"Which is why I want my revenge."

"Please, don't Sam. I'm sorry, how many times have I said I'm sorry? Please, just let me go."

Behind me, Darek had Naomi on the ground. I struggled for freedom again, I had to help her.

Sam growled. "You've already made friends with them." he said. "With my enemies."

"No, Sam, my roommate, her friend was shot by one of you, I had to help, and they're making me stay with them."

"Making you? Sure." His grip tightened. Behind him I could see Naomi's knife flashing.

"They said my apartment was targeted. They don't know why. But I think it was because of you."

His hand closed around my neck and pushed my head back against the wall. He blocked my vision, but I could hear rapid footsteps. Naomi was still alive.

"Please just let me go Sam, and you won't get hurt."

His eyes were nothing but red dots in the darkness.

**Do whatever you want Luna. Personally I'd like to keep him alive, for now, but it's up to Naomi after all...**

Monanoke-

The small girl awoke to see Naomi and Jenna fighting. Monanoke dragged herself away from the confilict and away from danger. But most of all she wasn't in the way.

(Nah I won't kill em...yet )

Naomi~

Naomi rolled away from Darek's attack and stabbed him again, this time causing him to retreat. Jenna cried out in pain when Sam's grip on her neck tightened. Naomi made a lunge for Sam, catching him on the side. He hissed and dropped Jenna to the ground, who the hit her head and got knocked out. (Sorry!!) Naomi let a cry of pain escape her lips as Sam cut her arm with his own dagger. As Naomi grabbed her arm Sam punched her in the stomach, sending her flying back. Naomi hit the wall with a thud. She quickly regained herself and and lunged at Sam again, this time neither of them had daggers. Instead they fist fought.

In a few seconds Sam had a hold on one of Naomi fists, trying to break it. Naomi had a hold on his other hand, trying to do the same. They both glared at each other, using all their strength. Naomi eyes began to glow red and she threw Sam back and into a wall. He yelled something unintelligable and ran off.

Naomi turned and picked up Jenna, then Monanoke, who was crawling away. "Sorry, Monanoke. But, with the state you and Jenna are in I must take you back." Naomi ran through the tunnel and into a small room, where Theo sat waiting.

"Have fun?" He teased.

"Not at all, one got bit." Naomi sighed.

"Which?" He asked, a frown forming on his lips.

"Monanoke, take her in and examine it, see how long she has till her change. If she was biten by Innocence it won't be long, but if it was Jace it might be a while, full of pain. I'll take Jenna and fix her up. Just a few cuts and bruises shouldn't be hard." Naomi handed over Monanoke and ran Jenna up the stairs.

(That was fun! & Nobody got killed! Yay me!)

Jenna (ooh, I've never been knocked out before)...

The last thing I remember was Naomi slashing at Sam and then...

Well, then, it was a bit like when I fall asleep in lectures. I didn't really notice I was unconscious until I woke up, lying in a bed somewhere.

I looked at the bright white light hanging above me and sighed.

In any case, I most certainly was not getting to any classes today.

In the end, I thought, the best thing to do was to roll over and get a good night's sleep, wherever I was.

Naomi~

Naomi jumped back as Jenna opened her eyes and rolled over. Once she was sure that Jenna was asleep again she finished wraping all the scrapes and stitching all the cuts. Maybe I am getting better at this. She sighed and quickly checked on Alex who was asleep. She walked over to a desk in the room, and began writing an excuse for all of them on a peice of paper.

Please excuse the following student for being absent today.

She listed the names and signed off with a big, fake signature. After everything was finished she walked into the room that held Theo and Monanoke.

"Who was it?" She asked, making Theo jump.

"Judging by the size and the samples I got, it was Innocence." Theo growled.

"Ah, ok." Naomi walked over and examined the, now-passed-out Monanoke. Tears fell from her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Theo asked, grabbing her arm.

"I-I c-couldn't save h-her from this l-life." Naomi cried as she fell to the ground.

"It's okay. She's still Monanoke." He said, not knowing what to do. Naomi shook her head, and quickly walked out, back towards Jenna and Alex's room. She silently entered and sat down in one of the chairs, crying as quietly as possible.

Alana-

Alana nodded, "I hope they are. Monanoke isn't one to stay put. SHe'll want to go home. Not that I don't. I just wouldnt' be able to protect myself at home right now." She sighed, this was getting old. "So, if you dont mind my askin, how did you become a vampire. If you don't want to say that is fine."

*If you don't mind I'll torture my person ^_^*

Monanoke-

Pain. It was all she felt. Rushing through out her entire body. Creating a strange numbness in her, yet she felt everything. She felt the change. Something was wrong. She was bit by Innocence, but still there was a terrible pain in her body. A pain that could kill her.

"AHHHHH!!!!" Monanoke screamed.

Theo and Naomi ran into the room." I thought you said she was bit by Innocence!" Naomi yelled.

"She was!" Theo protested.

Theo felt her forehead. it was burning. Monanoke's blood was boiling and melting her heart. Blood began to gush out of her nose, eyes, ears and mouth. Naomi's tears began to pour out.

"Monanoke!! Hang on!" She screamed.

"I...I think her bloods fighting the transformation." Theo statted.

Naomi looked at him." How is that possible?"

"I don't know..." Theo admitted.

(Aww I though I had them all safe for a second...haha doesn't last long does it??)

Naomi~

Naomi turned to Theo. "Go get Drake." Theo nodded and ran off. Naomi put her cold hand to Monanoke's forehead. Monanoke whimpered and shivered. Naomi couldn't think of anything.

"Monanoke. Don't fight it. Let go," Naomi whispered into her ear as she wrapped her scarf tightly around her mouth and nose, "Give up...nobody can help you...I know that, from my own tranformation." Monanoke calmed for a second but began to cry out in pain again soon.
