"Good morning sleepy head." I heard the innocent, friendly phrase ring out of the back lounge as I rolled out of my bunk the next morning.

It made my blood run cold.

I glanced around frantically for a moment but found the rest of the bus to be empty so I swallowed the fear and turned to face Rem down, squaring my shoulders as I met him with a poker face.

Rem was lounging on the back couch, his arms crossed behind his head and his feet up, staring me down coldly.

"I do believe we have some unfinished business my dear." He said venomously, sitting up and locking his hands together on his knees.

"I'm having second thoughts." I said calmly, trying not to fidget under his gaze. "I've had sometime to think about it and I'm not doing it."

"Thats alright, revenge is achieved slowly overtime so I'm not opposed to waiting a little longer, James will suffer in time but you can be useful to me another way." His speech was completely cold and every word was like a suspenseful movie, filling me with dread. I wish I could trust him, to feel safe around him again but now I was confident he was trying to lead me off a cliff and he couldn't be any farther from the man I once called a friend. No trace of the man who once was the only friendly vampire I knew, saved me so many times from James or who used to sit in a knee to knee triangle with my best friend and i and gossip with us and love her with all his heart, that guy was gone. His eyes held no friendly glint and were all animal now.

"I'm going to change you. I have no demands of you right now though, I'll just call you in on a favor later when I have one."

"How can I agree to this when I have no idea what's being asked of me?"

"Cause nothing is."

"Nothing right now. You could change me today then tell me to murder a whole town tomorrow." I said, placing a hand on my hip and allowing my bitchy side to give me a wall of strength, a seemingly strong one but flimsy at best in reality.

"Don't be silly, the change will take you a week at least to complete." He said in a bored tone, resting his cheek in his hand. To him this information was nothing but to me it might as well be a bombshell.

"What!?" I squeaked, he chuckled softly, entertained by my surprise.

"You seem surprised, did you seriously think becoming a vampire would be so easy?" Then he chuckled again as a thought came to him, "please don't tell me you believe your going to start sparkling.."

"No.." I chirped innocently but finally did fidget a little, had I really expected that?

"Now, I'm not a fan of changing people because it weakens a vampire for a little while and I refuse to be weakened with so many enemies roaming about but my brother Sam will do it." He began to explain.

"You have a brother?"

"No interrupting." He snapped. "Yes I do, we'll be meeting him at his house soon so get ready." I stared at him in shock for a moment. Is he serious? "Chop chop." He growled clapping his hands together and breaking me out of my tangle of thoughts. On instinct I obeyed and took up a new set of cloths and went into the bathroom.

Once the door was locked the panic attack began. I dropped the cloths to the floor and my hands flew to the sink, wrapping around the sides until my knuckles turned white. My breathing was ragged and my face turned pale, I stared into the mirror horrified at the person looking back. Isn't this what I wanted? Why am I reacting like this? The questions burned in my mind and I was at first scared to answer them but that's when I realized that I relied on ignorance. I'm to scared to be honest with myself and my feelings. I can't even be real with myself so how can I face the real world without getting burned? I act like I can't answer these question and therefore I can walk blindly and never have to but that's why I always walk into these situations.

I'm not ready. Maybe I want this but not now, not like this and not without Daniel.

But I wasn't even able to protest, what would he do if I walk out of here and say no? What if he wants more then he's letting on? I don't trust him so how could I know? He wants me to just follow him blindly to his brother's house and then let this mystery man change me, everything about this plan scared me. This whole thing was sketchy but I can't say no or he might hurt me. I need help, that's it I need help wether I like it or not I do and at least I'm finally admitting I'm in over my head. Suddenly my phone was like a 10 pound weight in my pocket, I had been ignoring my way out this entire time! I took it out and shakily found Daniel's name.

"Hello?"

"I need help." I choked out in a frantic whisper. Now that I was talking to him I was almost in tears. "I'm in the DM bus and there's no one here but Rem and he has me cornered in the bathroom."

"What's wrong with Rem? I thought you guys were friends, he's a good guy."

"No he's not!" I almost screamed.

"What are you doing in there?" Rem growled from the other side of the door. I broke down and started sobbing into the phone. The door broke and in a moment Rem was next to me.

"That's it, I'm done with you bitch." He growled, ripping the phone out of my hand. He was about to crush it before having second thoughts. "Bye lover boy." He said chuckling darkly, "I'll at least leave you her body." He said to Daniel with a evil grin then broke the phone.

"Where we're going sugar, he's never gona find you." He hissed in my ear, ripping me to my feet. He threw me into the wall and held me there well he searched for something. I cried out in pain and my tears began to mix with blood from a cut that had opened up on my forehead from hitting the corner of a mirror on the wall. He forced a rag into my mouth to silence me and tied my hands behind my back then threw me over his shoulder and carried me outside to an awaiting car.

I didn't know where we were going or if I was ever going to see Daniel again or even if I'd live past tonight. All I could do at this point was hope even though the situation seemed hopeless.

"Sorry things had to be this way dear." Rem said, joining me in the back seat and leaning towards me, putting his hand on my thy. I attempted to scream but it was muffled and squirming didn't do anything for me either. With his hand on my thy and starting to massage it's way up, every bad scenario of rape started playing out in my mind.

"Goodnight darling." He whispered huskily in my ear then suddenly his teeth ripped into my neck. This pain was worse then James and as I screamed I hoped I'd pass out quick and I eventually did but not before he had kept me awake long enough to suffer.

Hey guys! Sorry it's short, I've been wanting so badly to update but I was stuck on how to write it out. Hopefully it will be longer next chapter. Thanks for reading!
