He spotted her wandering in the woods. He waited until she was right beneath him. He made his strike quickly and efficiently. She went down quickly. "Alright Rogue. Do your thing."

She stood up like a robot. Rogue walked quickly down to the clearing where Gemma was. Rogue grabbed her neck and sank her fangs into her neck. Gemma went down with a silent scream. He rubbed his hands together. He was happy, happy that she was killing Gemma. He wanted all the people who hurt her dead. And then he'll kill Rogue. He couldn't wait to see what happened next. Rogue fell to the ground. He walked over and grabbed her. He erased her mind and woke her up. She stood up and walked over to trial two. He walked away with a smile on his face.

I found myself in handcuffs that was coated with obsidian. I tried to break it, but couldn't. Obsidian was the only thing along with opal that vampires cannot break. I think it had to do with the heating and cooling. I'm not sure. Honestly, when Rose was talking about all I was thinking of is that I can't break it so I should get some bracelets of it. Opal, on the other hand, hurts like a bitch. It burns the vampires skin. Especially when you coat it in holy water or vinegar.

"Okay. This is what we're going to call teamwork. The first person to disable the fake bomb under your teammate's chair will win. That team will get to go to the next round. But you have to free the person of the cuffs first and then the bomb or you will die. Everyone pick someone," Rose said.

I looked at me cuffed to the chair. I looked at the six other people who were cuffed to the chair. I saw silver for the werewolves, iron for the Fae, and onyx for the warlocks. They too look upset that they couldn't get up. Especially with the fake bomb that was ticking under our feet. Well, then, shit. Rose and Burnett didn't really plan this out too well.

Chase came walking over to me. He crouched in front of me. He had to look a little up to meet my eyes. "Hey, want me to be your partner?"

I nodded. "Sure." I looked around for Dem. He already found a partner. And it was Trina. I narrowed my eyes. "I would love for you to be my partner."

Chase nodded and back up onto the cone. Everyone seemed to have a partner. Ridley was beside me pulling against the cuffs. "Damnit. These shits are hard to break."

I narrowed my eyes. "Of course they are. They're used to keep vampires at bay."

"Shut up," Ridley growled.

I laughed. "See? I was right. Who's your partner?"

"Logan."

My eyes grew wide. "You let him?"

"Yeah. Here's the thing. Bri and I are going to be saying yes to them all day today. You in? Or you can't because Mr. Badass?"

I rolled my eyes. "Of course I'm in. Chase is already my partner."

"Good. Then let have fun with the idiots. I mean Chase is the only sweet one. Have you ever seen him feed? Who is his thrall?" Ridley asked.

I shrugged. Ridley's right, I never saw him feed or a thrall trail him. "I don't know. He never really comes out his room. This is the longest that he was out."

"Hey, you know some vampires can drink from the blood bag and some drink from the vein."

"Yeah because vampires who were born vampire drinks from the vein. Turned vampires drink from the blood bags."
