weave in and out of people getting on to the subway but as I slowly picked up speed but tried desperately stay at a human jog he only picked up more speed. I bumped into a young girl, she looked about seven her brows furrowed and her blue eyes looked me over with scorn her brown hair was in adorable ringlets and she had a blue ribbon tying up her hair.
“Hey!” she exclaimed, I looked around something telling me danger was lurking nearby and Adoni was gaining quick, suddenly I heard Adoni’s angry voice, “Hey!” he exclaimed, I looked back and he was in a wiry teenager’s grasp. I could tell the teenage boy was a vampire and I made my way over. The train had slowly started pulling out and I quickened my pace, whilst still trying not to draw attention than out of nowhere the boy looked at me smiled and then threw Adoni in the way of the subway, He shouted in alarm I leapt out no longer caring how fast I went, I pushed us in between the cars right in time and turned us so that my body hit the cement wall, my head bounced and throbbed painfully. Adoni’s body was pressed to mine, his eyes were wide and I could tell he was in shock.
Suddenly next to us on the wall, in a blink of an eye were the small girl and the teenage boy, the boy hissed. “We knew who you were right away,” the girl said, “you don’t hide very well.”
“Come with us and the boy will not be hurt.”
I nodded and we crawled through the window of the sub just in time. I held Adoni close glaring quietly at the teenage boy while sitting in my seat. The boy wasn’t affected by my glare and Adoni had passed out. The only one who put on any facade of normalcy was the “little girl” whom whistled as cheerfully as if we had gone on a picnic.
I muttered to the boy, “What do you want of me?”
The boy creased his eyebrows, “I haven’t been asked what I wanted in a long time… I suppose I want nothing from you.”
“Then why are you making me come with you?” I whispered loudly.
The girl sighed as if my interrupting her humming was the rudest thing I could’ve ever done; “because, you are a suspect of an investigation for a series of murders, specifically one in particular victim who is highly regarded.”
I knew they were talking about Delilah, Tristan’s sister whom was also the queens go to. Apparently Tristan had a bad experience with the queen one he hadn’t embellished on and now I would be forced under her wrath, I wonder what she’s like in person. I felt my stomach drop but I did not allow myself to show any fear. I am Jack’s blank stare.
“What makes you think I did it?” I asked with seemingly innocent curiosity.
“The last person she described to be very peculiar was a girl Tristan was courting, a girl by the name of Skylar who had dark red hair, one red eye and one yellow one, with freckles and a peculiar virtue about her. You fit the bill and this boy has helped by calling your name.”
“Speaking of the boy,” the small girl inquired, “may I have a bit of your snack?”

I growled fiercely and bared my teeth at her, “try it,” I glowered, “I’ll rip you to shreds.”
The girl pouted almost as if she were 7 but you could tell by her perfection and grace, that she had seen a great more deal of years than seven.
The boy smiled, “That is quite interesting,” the boy said rubbing his chin and examining me. “You seem docile almost like a deer but now I am beginning to see you are much more fierce I should have known you’d be passionate much like you’re murder scenes yet even so I’m impressed by your vehemence.”
“I didn’t kill anyone,” I huffed lying frankly.
The boy smiled, “you are a vampire,” he smiled, “we all kill someone you just killed the wrong people.”
“You’d only be half right,” the she wolf hissed in my brain. She wanted to stand, to fight bravely and boldly.
However there were two of them, one of me and Adoni who at least in this situation was a hindrance more than a help. Still, the best way would to be to lose them, outsmart them, and buy time. So for now I would play by their rules, even so having Adoni so close again was so amazing. He fainted but now he just looked asleep, and his same face was there those same strong features, his cute round face, and beautiful long eyelashes that swept over his cheeks. His hair was short but seemed a bit wavy and I pet his head like so many times in the past as his head rested on my knee. It was as if the world was balanced again but there was still no denying the fear I felt for Adoni and myself. I would have to stay quiet if I escaped, to appear cooperative and not aggressive, I would wait until they lowered their guard than I would get Adoni and myself somewhere safe. No, it wasn’t an ingenious plan, but there weren’t any options but to wait for the opportune moment and hope that I’ll know when, and how to strike.
“So where are we going?” I asked making my voice anxious which wasn’t at this moment too hard to accomplish.
The boy frowned, “No more questions stay quiet.”
“If I scream,” I asked innocently, “what then?”
The boy looked to my brother, “I’ll kill him.”
I smiled, slowly, sweetly, and leaned close, “You’re threats won’t work, I’ll attack you, I’ll fight until I’m dead and you know it, and you can’t afford to bring me back dead, your queen wants me alive.”
The girl looked up blue eyes looking as innocent as any pair of eyes ever could be, “At least until you answer a few questions.”
“Is that supposed to make me feel better?”
The girl shrugged, “sure she could kill you right away, and she’s displeased enough to do it, however she is so curious about you, honestly I am too. You are without doubt the strangest vampire I’ve ever met… and your eyes…” she gazed at me as if I was a puzzle and a morbid fascination all within the same glance.
“They were green before I changed,” I said flatly.
“Many people’s eyes turn red and stay that way throughout the first year of their change but I’ve never seen red and yellow… it’s so unusual, and how you were able to take out Delilah, and how you went undetected.”
“I have no need to answer to you,” I said bluntly.
The girl pouted but knew I was right, I had no need to answer to her and because of the other vampires I’d killed I left the two vampires in front of me, maybe not to be intimidated but to at least they would think twice before messing with me.
For the rest of the trip I’d been quiet and accommodating just as I’d planned to be. I waited patiently softly petting my brother’s head, until he woke up and looked up at me his dark green eyes spilling over with tears getting caught in his long dark lashes before it was released rapidly rolling down his cheeks.
“Are you real?” He went to touch me but I pulled away.
“I’m real enough,” I said muttering and darting my eyes between Adoni and our two captors,
“that isn’t important, stay near me okay? Stay away from them.”
Adoni looked around, “Is that the guy who threw me into the train?! Wait… how am I…” He looked at me his brows furrowed in disbelief, “You…. you… but how?”
I sighed, “It’s not important you are here now. Be quiet, trust me it’s important.”
“…Am I dead?”
I rolled my eyes, “If so heaven smells like a dirty hobo.”
He chuckled a bit at that, nerves still tugging at his voice, I was relieved to see he was okay but it was so hard to relax him, to assure him that all of this would be explained to him. Who could blame him for asking so much? Certainly not me, I have had questions of my own, so it’s understandable that he had questions, I’m sure his head was reeling and keeping in the questions was beating down on his will I was actually impressed that he was able to keep his questions inside.
He remained quiet and then we got to our stop, and people flooded in as the vampires shoved me and Adoni out, and I knew at this moment that this was going to be my best chance to escape. There was one millisecond where the little girl vampire let go of my hand and turned to talk to her wiry teenage companion. I figured that was as big a break as I could ever have.
“Go,” the she-wolf said excitedly, “use your vampire vision.”
My eyes widened I couldn’t believe she was suggesting I use vampire vision, and I had totally forgotten the ability all together. I threw Adoni over my shoulder and quickly disappeared in the crowd. I used my vampire vision, which had a reddish hue, and showed the arteries, capillaries, veins, and the heart. All vampires’ hearts didn’t beat. I could hear the angry fighting of the two vampires, I sped up until I was so fast waving in and out of the crowd that one could hardly see me.
I managed to run up the stairs and outside, I almost stopped and groaned, I was back in this damned city. I ran as fast as I could across the street dodging cars. I could feel the wind rushing in my face as my feet flew over the cement. Adoni’s heart was beating rapidly against my back and he remained completely speechless. I had to be quick and find somewhere safe, I should go to the apartment; the pack’s scent was all over that building. I ran into an alleyway and climbed my way up the fire escape to the roof without breaking a sweat. I looked around from the roof, trying to get my bearings. Then I realized, I’d never been here before, as far as I could see there were unfamiliar buildings with unfamiliar patterns. Then I saw an airport nearby, that’s where they were bringing us. Far away from anything I know, where was I going to go?
Suddenly the boy and girl vampires were in front of me, there scowls deepening on their faces. The girl’s arms were crossed and her glare was capable of melting flesh.
“I…I’ll go but let me let my brother go.”
The boy shook his head, “even if we did believe that load of bull it wouldn’t matter, we need leverage on you.”
The girl held up her pointer and middle finger and placed it on the palm of her other hand, and suddenly Adoni was on his feet beside, than the girl made her two fingers “walk” across her palm, he walked over to her, his eyes wide with shock and horror.
“Good job Melody,” the boy said, “we’ll be keeping this one for the remainder of our trip to…insure you will stick this trip through.”
“Fine,” I huffed irritably, what was I going to do? What option did I have? I knew our destination was the airport. I knew they would take me far away, I had no doubt of it, and what would I do once I was there? What would they do with Adoni once we got there? Maybe they would let him go… maybe.
The boy grabbed my
