Never Judge a Book By It's Cover

Would i have been the same

I ran as fast as i could, not daring to use the shadows for cover. I ran along the main roads dodging pedestrians and cars not caring if i hit anything because i needed to get out of the open and fast. I would have been faster if i used the building tops but that is what i usually do and if Santos is looking for me even if he said he wasnt that would be where he was. And because of him i cant use my allies. I had to be in the light of the night. I avoided the shadows as they can betray me now. They hide me and my actions from the prying eyes of humans but now with Santos back anyone, anything could be waiting for me there, watching me and hoping for me to walk into their trap. I was completely paranoid yes, but my reasons where high. The feeling of being constantly watched irked me and the continuous fear of Santos being near is freaking me out. To a freaking high extent. I needed to get out of the open so i didnt use Kyle's front door. Instead i went straight for the window.

*SMASH*

Glass shattered everywhere on Kyle's tiled floor tinkling as the pieces hit and crumbled more.

"ROSE, Why the hell did you go through my window. I mean seriously i have a door for a reason and i dont want any unnecessary questions you know that. I like it here i dont want to have to leave. You know what happened in Australia. Seriously even for you this is too far i know its only a window but Rose what the hell where you thinking use the bfreaking door next time please." He was pissed. And i did actually feel bad. I know he was comprimised in Australia and had to leave to live in peace.

"I'm sorry Kyle." I muttered i didnt want him to get to big a head. Kyle walked straight up to me and placed his hands on my shoulders.

"Rose, whats wrong? WHy did you come through my window?" His voice was so caring. I hate lying to him.

"I wanted to get here faster. I missed ya Kyle." What are you rambling on about rose, god your an idiot. "Besides using the door is so slow. And usually ur window is open. So dont blame me the one time you decide to shut your window i decide to use your forgetfulness to my advantage." Yeah you are truly an idiot Rose. Blaming Kyle you dont think that is going to work do you? OMG stupid inner voice Shut up you are so annoying i hate you i swear i would kill you if that wasnt a form of suicide. Rose listen to yourself you are having an inner battle with yourself.

"Rose, you cant be serious. I mean seriously your gonna blame me. What is going on i know something is bothering you?" He knows me so well why the hell couldnt i fall for him or at least someone similar. I mean why did Santos have to be a murdering Bastard. He could have just been a bastard and we would have been fine. I wouldn't be scared shitless now a having this conversation.

"Yer um ignore the bullshit i have just said, and drop it Kyle. I'm not bringing you into this no matter what. Just dont ask please. I am begging you Kyle, please just drop it and..... just don't leave me." I am breaking i can feel it. No i will not break. Not by the means of him. But that doesnt change a thing. I need Kyle to stay with me at least till Andy gets backs.

He pulled me into his embrace and just held me, muttering his words so low it was barely audible to my tuned ears. 'Scarlet it will be alright. I promise nothing and noone will ever hurt you while i am still here. And you dont need to worry as long as you want me i am here for you i am not leaving. Probably even longer. So Scarlet please tell me why you of all people are breaking. I never wanted to see this day as it means some deep shit about to happen." I froze, how the hell did he know my real name. I havent used it since i was 15.

"Since when have you called me Scarlet?"

He blushed. OMG. Kyle blushed. He pulled me back and held my face in his hands. " I have called you Scarlet since i met you. So for 244 years I have called you Scarlet but you haven't found out till today because it isnt something i would usually say to your face." 244 years. Wooo. That is a long time to keep something from someone. i mean i know it only a nickname but still. I would have burst, maybe literally. Hang on 244 years i have only been an immortal for 229 years and i have only known Kyle for........... 150 of those years when he came back from Australia to New York.

"Hang on Kyle. I have only known you for about 150 years, so how the hell have you been calling me Scarlet for 244 years?" He sighed and led me over to the couch.

"Scarlet i knew you before . I have known you since you born. My father, sent me here to wreck havoc and where i turned up happened to be at your house. I sensed magic within your house and decided that would be my first target. I walked in and straight down to the basement. Through the fog created by the potion i saw ur father and the magician. They talked of the child , you, that was to be born and how the potion will correct all wrongness within. Well i changed the potion i made you more indestructable, more immortal than even you know realize. It is because of me you have to drink blood, can read minds and can change your appearance. But when you were born i came back. To see if my deed had been successful. But what i saw wasnt an indestructable immortal. It was you. A glowing baby girl. And when i saw you something clicked I'm not saying it was love at first sight or anything like that. But when i saw you something inside me knew i had to protect you even though i am a devil's spawn. You are the reason i stopped killing people and i didnt even know you and that is why i left for Australia. I was scared and ran, from a baby girl. And when i came back i was drawn to New York and you were here 15 and alone. I needed to protect you and be here for you so thats why i let you find me, let you know exactly what i am." OMG he can't be serious. It's his fault i am like this. What was the potion ment to do? Was it going to make me a normal human or part human part vampire? If Kyle hadn't been there and changed it would i have still murdered my mother to live? Would i have lived a partially normal life with my parents?

"Kyle what exactly did you do?" I barely heard my own voice. I was scared of what he would tell me.

He hesitated before telling me. Then a sigh. Crap this is gonna be major. "Scarlet I.... I made you what you are. The potion your father made was going to make you part human part 'vegetarian' vampire. I changed that. I made you part immortal and pat vampire. You require blood to live because of me and i am sorry if i had known that you where the child i would never because i heard of you before hand. Lucifer made a prophecy and it talks of a mixed breed fighting the evil and conquering. This mixed breed was to be a baby girl born to two vampires and modified by a wizards potion to make her different. This baby girl would hold powers even she could not find. She holds the power to read minds and change the future. I never knew that i would make you that person and i am truly sorry." He was i could tell because his body went slack and he couldnt look at me in fear of the rejection. But i still have to know one thing.

"Kyle if you weren't there would my mother be alive? Would i have still killed her?" He looked at me and put his face in his hands. Craap.

"Yes she would. You would have only taken a partial amount of her blood to start off before you could become a vampire. You would have drank a small amount then become your part vampire and been a vegetarian beside your parents. You probably would have never have killed anyone. I am truly sorry Scarlet. I will understand if you hate me know but please know if i knew that it was going to be you as that baby girl i would have never have walked into your house, and changed the potion." He barely spoke the words but mumbled them to his hands. I Just sat there. I couldnt move. What would have my life been like if Kyle hadn't changed it? Would i be with my parents still? Would i be the same girl? Well obviously not. I wouldnt be here killing the monsters who threaten my home. I would probably be a quite girl who barely new how to kill anything apart from squirrels and chickens. So should i be grateful or should i hate him?
