Angels and Demons

chapter one

"Come on momma" Rouge says excitedly as she runs down the store isle.

"Rouge what did I say about running in the store?" I scald "Your going to have to wait until my shift is over, okay?"

"Okay" Rouge whines

I continue to stock shelves when I hear Rouge give out a shreek of excitement.

"Illenna!!!!" She shouts

Illenna smiles and greets Rouge with a hug "Hey Rouge" she says thn turns to me "Rachelle can you lock up tonight? I have this dinner thing with my mom" she asks

"Yeah, can you take Rouge with you?"

"Why not" she says smiling

We walk back to the back room to grab her stuff. I help Rouge put on her jacket and bookbag and watch them leave.

As they walk away I think about Rouge's parents, how much Lyla adored Rouge and never wanted to leave her. I think about the way Lyla begged me to take Rouge and leave. I can still hear her screaming because Michael had ripped out her heart.

I remember seeing Michael carrying his dead wife and begging me to end his lfe, t save Rouge from the monster he had become. I did as he asked , took everything we needed, including money and fled the country.

I decided that we needed a fresh start so I took Rouge to America . It didn't take me long to lose my Italian accent, since Rouge never had one she never had to lose it. As of now we both live as Americans, we are happy and content. She never asks who her father is, I guess she aaumes that he left or died. She doesn't know who her real parents are or that she is the princess of the vampire world. I find it easier to keep these things from her so she does not ask about anything.

Me, on the other hand, I'm a Sibley, one of the most dangerous vampire hunters alive. I never persued my training due to my parents death, and I was taken by the orphanage. I met Lyla and Michael one night when I ran away and broke into their home. Michael insisted on getting rid of me but Lyla fought him back. She took me in and loved me. I knew her as my mother and Michael as my father. I loved them and they loved me, it was only when I was 16 I became sick, at that time Lyla was pregnant with Rouge.

They thought it would pass but they were wrong, I only got worse. Michael brought In the best doctors in the world to help me, but none of them had ever seen my disease before. They all told Michael the same thing, that I am going to die a painful death, but Lyla said no, she begged him to change me. He did, ever since that night, I remain a hybrid, a mix between witch and vampire.

I continue my day checking out rude customers, stocking shelves, and cleaning up messes. I finally check out my last customer and decide to take my last five minutes to get some things for the house. I didn't lock up because someone might want to make a quick stop for something, and my boss would fire me if I lock up early.

I walk to the back to put my work apron in my bag. When I turn around I meet a beautiful tall man, with green eyes and a nice smile

"Rachelle" he says with a husky voice

I look at him with confusion

"Its on you name tag" he says

I menatally slap myself for not realizing that so I redeem myself

"Is there anything I can help you with?" I ask walking pass him

"Where's the Vodka?" He asks

"Down isle 4" I say walking away from him.

I had to get away from him, something didn't feel right with him being in the store. I quickly grab the things I need and walk to check-out, as I was checking out I look up to see him staring at me, I look back down trying to avoid his eyes but my curiosity takes over, I look up and he is gone.

"Did I imagine him" I thought "I couldn't have, he looked to real." After I check out I walk to the security booth to check the camras. He was here alright, he left his vodka in the store and got into a black van with two other men.

I walk to the front door and lock it, I walk to the back, get my things, and walk to my car. I can't get rid of the feeling that someone is watching me, I slam the trunk door and get in my car. I speed to Illenna's house to pick up Rouge, I look in the mirror and notice the same black van from earlier is following me. When I pull up to Illenna's house I look back again and it is gone.

I walk up the steps and knock frantically on the door

"Rachelle is everything okay?" Illenna asks

I take a breath "yes, where is Rouge?"

Illenna points to the living room and I quickly walk in

"Come on baby" I say holding my hand out to her, she walks to me and puts on her jacket.

"Thanks for keeping her" I say walking out the door

"Anytime" Illenna says cheerfully

I put Rouge In the car and drove off. I keep looking at her in the mirror and notice notice her Royal marks are showing up on her neck

"Damn" I mumble under my breath "I think it's time to take her somewhere more safe, somewhere where no one will recognize her marks" I think

I pull into my drive way and take Rouge out of the car. I unlock the door and take her up stair to my room. "I guess I'm not sleeping tonight" I mumble.

I walk back out to the car to get the grocery bags. Out the corner of my eye I see a tall, dark, figure standing in my neighbors yard, I grab the bags, shut the trunk, go in my house and lock the door.

I take the bags to the kitchen and start to put things up. As I put up our food I feel this burning sensation in my throat and realize I haven't fed yet.

I take out a blood bag and attempt to puncture it, before I can drink, I am pinned against the wall.

"Hello gorgeous" a man says

I turn my head to the side and see the man from earlier

"What do you want?" I hiss

He chuckles "you"

I try and move from the wall but knock over a flower vase instead. Next I hear little feet coming down the stairs

"Momma?" She says

I menatally slap myself for not closing my door all the way. I turn my attention to the hall where Rouge is walking down.

"Momma" she says as she walks into the kitchen

"Grab her!" The man yells

"No!" I say trying to get out of his grip

"Momma!" Rouge screams

I get out of the mans grip and knock his out. I get about a few inches infront of Rouge and everything goes black. I can hear Rouge screaming for me and men talking. I reach for the man who is holding Rouge but pass out before I can even touch him.
