The crickets cherped their night time lullaby, and the stream that flowed underneath the wooden bridge they sat on, hummed along to the tune. The wind sang a sweet whisper and night air's cool mist lay upon their skin. In the background of all this beauty, the party music still played on. Anna felt Parker shiver as he looked down at the water. The two of them were quiet and just watched the night sky like is was an IMAX movie. " Parker..." Anna began. Parker turned to look at her. Her face looked puzzled. He took another sip of his beer then leaned back and put his arm around her. " Yes miss Anna?" She fidgeted a bit then looked at the moon, it was like a big egg that was nested between two mountains and a valley. " We just kind of met...and I think I do like you..." She looked down at the stream. She knew what she had to tell him...but the words couldn't come out. She had to tell him why she was here...she couldn't let him die. If he ran away...or moved. somewhere that Marella couldn't track him...he would be safe. How could she tell him...without telling him what she is. " Anna... I think I know what you want to say...." Parker trailed off. His words struck her internal discussion and her eyes darted to meet his. They were turning red, like he was holding back tears. " I'm pretty sure you already herd about my parents. And you're wondering how I'm staying strong. Why I act so happy and shit..." Anna put her hand on Parkers lap. " Parker I..." In moving her hand he began again. He looked so full of pain. His breath was deep like he was gasping for his life, but then she felt it. His sadness. The earth around them stopped singing. Another sign that he was a slayer...
Trackers are supernatural but they aren't. They belong to the earth...they are the earths warriors. When God created the first vampires, he realized his mistake... and submitted to the help of the witches to create a race of humans that could track down vampires and destroy them. The earth seemed to cry...the forest fell silent, Even the music from the party could not be herd.
" It was two months ago, Just as summer began. I just got my full class licence and I really wanted the truck to go pick Blake up. But my dad refused, he told me another day. I took the truck anyways...when he went for a nap. I guess he and mom took moms car out to look for me... when he stepped out of the car to get something...or maybe pick up a hitch hiker.... He was ripped apart and a silver knife was through his heart." Parkers eyes were blinking hard, as though he tried with all his might to hold the tears back. Anna slid her hand off his lap. Her heart was beating in her throat. His sadness and regret seeped into her. She felt how badly he blamed himself, it was like someone was reaching into his chest and pulling out his heart. Parker felt alone, scared. He felt like he was given the responsibility of being strong no matter what, he had to be tough. He had to stay strong and look after Mira. As the pain of his loss pierced Anna's very heart, she felt tears stream down her cheeks. Parker held himself and kept his eyes ahead, as sick as Anna knew this was...she liked feeling his emotions. It made her feel human again. Slowly she took her finger and slid it up his cheek, taking his one tear with it and wiping it off his face. " You won't be sad forever, Parker. Life for you will be an abundance of love and tranquility. You will live a long, happy and fulfilling life. And your dad will always be there, guiding you. And watching over you." With those words, Parker slowly turned his head. His eyes drenched with tears and pain, almost as though he had never cried a day in his life. Anna gave his a soft smile and leaned over to slowly kiss his cheek. Electric shocks stuck through Parkers body when Anna pressed her lips against him. And it wasn't like a ' I'm getting so horny ' shock, it was a ' Run. ' shock. His eyes blaired open and Anna sat confused.
Screams echoed through the forest, and the music from the party had stopped. Parker recognized the scream, it was Mira. Instantly he jumped up and ran towards the sound of the scream. Anna stood on the bridge, she felt the earth grow with anger. " Oh no..." With human speed, she ran after Parker. There was a huddle of kids and some were crying, others were puking. Parker shoved and pushed his way through everyone to find Mira crying over Travis' body. The smell of death hit them instantly. The rotten corpse and decay smell, no life. It was a musky smell and it made Parkers nose wrinkle. Sadly, Anna was to used to that smell all to well. Parker was ahead of Anna , already standing over Mira.She was covered in his blood, and she held his hand to her face as tears poured down them. Parker went to put his arm around her but she pushed him away. " Someone call 911!" one kid shouted. Anna couldn't stop the police from getting here...As she peered at the body, she knew what killed him. His body was shredded, to look like an animal attack. But there was two holes in the side of his neck, shaking her head Anna backed up. Through all the crying and thoughts, Anna saw Parker, they met eyes and she felt the sadness that he was feeling, she knew he was feeling everyone's fear and confusion. Slowly she looked up to Jess, who was staring at her, devilishly. Like she wanted to pounce on her and rip HER throat out. Slowly, Anna disappeared into the darkness and started to follow Travis' trail of blood to the forest. She could hear and smell Jess following her. Once they were far enough away from the scene she herd a wolfs growl and then she saw Jessica. Her eyes were yellow and she was growling.
" You have started a war with the wolves that you can't win, vampire! killing a human is against our tolerance treaty. It is my duty, as daughter of pack leader Elija , that I kill you." Anna whirled her head around and put her hand on her hip. She rolled her eyes. " Heal dog. Why don't you take a wiff of me. I don't smell like human blood...so obviously I didn't kill him." Jessica's eyes returned to her greenish blue and she smelt the air. " You're right...but if you didn't kill him. Find out who did, because once this gets out to the wolf pack. It's you, who they are gunna be hunting down. And I will tell you this right now, vampire. Stay away from the slayer, he is under my watch. And I suggest you mind your place and hunt somewhere else." Jessica's words echoed through the forest. The slayer? He is more then just a protection project. " His name is Parker, in case you missed that." Anna sneered back. Jessica laughed a bit then looked at the ground while she walked towards Anna, slowly lifting her head. Jessica's red hair stuck to her freckled face like the red in fire outlines the orange. It intensified her anger and make Anna shiver. " I didn't know that you cared enough to learn his name, weren't you sent here just to kill him. " Anna whirled around and threw Jessica at the tree's behind her. " You don't understand shit. Now be a good little doggy and go home." Jessica stood up, her eyes were neon yellow and she was growling. Pulling pieces of sticks out of her, she walked towards Anna. " That will be the last time you ever touch me, vampire! If I wasn't so curious as to what your big ' vampire scheme' is, I would kill you. One bite from me is fatal to you. " And with that, Jessica walked away and back towards the fire. Anna followed...the vampire that killed Travis wasn't here anymore. Even their smell wasn't present.
Parker watched his baby sister take multiple shots behind a bench. Stepping closer to her, the fallen leaves on the ground crackles and crisped under his feet. Parker opened his arms wide and pulled Mira in for a hug. She reeked of booze and weed. " It might be smart not to be drinking while this place is swarming with cops, mir." They both laughed a bit then Mira untangled herself from her big brother. She sniffled a bit then turned to walk to Parkers truck. " Wait, I drove Anna here, I need to find her." Mira shrugged and walked towards te truck. " Anna?" Parkers voice echoed off the trees, then suddenly movement in the tree's, revealed Anna. Her hair hid her face but she smiled bashfully. " Sorry, I can't look at dead bodies..." Anna looked away. She couldn't be more cute, the way she looked away and hid her cheeks. Smiling...Parker walked over to her and put his hand on her elbow. " I can take you home now." He softly said, looking at her attentively. She returned the smile and walked off with him. The police shoved and pushed people out of the way, the night was lite up with blue and red flashing lights, the perfect harmony of the earth was silenced by the chatter and concern of the people. The peace and quiet of the night was harmed by the death. Travis' torn apart body still flashed inside Parkers mind, all the blood and internal organs open, the cold dead feeling he felt when he saw Travis. He clenched his hand and tried to shake the feelings, The earth around him...felt angry. It felt scared and like it needed to hide its fruits from a predator. He could feel the earth weeping at the scattered blood, and the lost soul.
When they reached the truck Parker opened the front passenger door to see Mira clutching her chest as little tears dribbled down her cheeks. Parker was about to ask Mira to move but Anna willingly sat in the back seat, after softly putting her hand on Mira's shoulder.
The three of them arrived at Anna's house, a cold flash of anger ran through him. HIs body was telling him to floor the gas and take the girls out of here, but this three story old brick house that was holding up vines, was Anna's home. Anna smiled and hopped out of the truck, she turned and waved and smiled at the two of them, then waked down the driveway. Mira looked over to her brother... who watched Anna's every step as though in a split second if he looked away she would fall down dead. Mira sighed and put her hand on her brothers, " She's gunna be okay Park, " The siblings met eyes and shared a smile. " Yeah, I know. I just want to make sure." Mira smiled and the tears pushed at her eyes, she didn't have the strength to hold the tears back, she let them fall off her face and drip onto her blue ripped skinny jeans. They both sat in the truck with pain and death on their minds, and soft country music playing in the back.
