Juniper:
Vlad walked in behind me and I started slowly backing out. "I see you made up, that's good!" I said cheekily rubbing the back of my head and grinning. "I'll give you some..." I faded off, letting the sentence trail. I spun on my heel. Vlad was right behind me and I gently shoved Vlad in he chest. He looked at me innocently and stumbled back. "Whoa whoa, watch it!" He said playfully confused. I shut the door silently and smiled up at him. "I think they're into each other!" I giggled happily. His look softened at he looked at me fondly. "Yeah." He laughed softly, still looking at me that way. I stopped and beckoned. I started waking down the hall, looking around and trying to remember what Vlad had showed me. There were the sleeping quarters and people's names were written down in a piece of paper, and placed in a slot in the door. I looked for Vlad's and he followed me. "What are we doing here? Your room is all the way back down the hall, we already passed it..." He said curiously. "I'm looking for your room." I threw over my shoulder as I continued to skip down the hall. He laughed and lengthened his pace so he was beside me. "You really don't know anything about vampires don't you," he said playfully. But there was a sad tinge to his eyes as well. "Vampires don't need to sleep." He said awkwardly. I rolled my eyes. "Of course I know that, just you must have a room to keep your things and to rest when you heal and things like that." I said. He shook his head and shrugged. "Vampires don't really get injured, hurt or killed very easily so I don't need a place I rest." He said. I pondered. "Well, don't you read at night? Or do anything like that? Isn't a bed useful to lie on at that time?" I wondered. He laughed and raised his hand. "You caught me! I have a bed in my room." He confirmed and I smirked. "Could have just said that..." I taunted perkily. He pulled me the other way by my hand. "My room is by Jarred's and yours because of being a vampire and all, sleeping near where everyone sleeps is a bit over whelming for my senses, especially if they're all asleep. I'm not attracted to Jarred's blood or Irelia's much." He explained. I shook my head. "Then what about me? I'm near your room now too." I added. He shifted uncomfortably. "Well, your blood is abnormally attractive. It's sweet and fresh. Also innocent which adds to the flavour..." He mused. I looked at him confused. "Why is that?" I asked. He shrugged. "I thinks it's because you are a half demon and they are exceptionally rare beings. Also meaning your blood is rare and rich. Not to mention you're a girl." He added. I nodded. "Okay..." It was good to know about my... Blood... "Then what about Jarred?" I asked. He's a half demon too, why isn't he attracted to his blood too?" Vlad sighed and shook his head. "Well, Jarred is a boy and he is a bit more rough around the edges then you are, his blood isn't as pure... You see, you have a very good heart, you are nice and sweet, while Jarred can be very dark and cruel." He explained. He brought me to his room and I gasped. It was decorated with rich blues and reds. Lots of old things were here, like gold goblets and candle sticks, vintage mirrors and tea sets. "Woah, Vlad, this is amazing!" I said and went and examined the old things. I selected a old gold pocket mirror. "This is so beautiful!" I gasped and carefully set it back down. He bashfully rubbed the back of his head and shrugged. "It's not much, but Jarred lets me roam around the building at night when I'm bored and I normally find cool stuff. This is an abandoned building so there are lots of things we still don't know about it..." He trailed. I laughed. "This is so cool! We should go look for things together sometime!" I offered. He blushed. "Really?" I nodded. "Yeah! It'll be fun!"Irelia:
I laughed and turned to Jarred while smiling. He was looking at the ground frowning. "Umm are you oka-" I stopped as I sensed it too. "Trouble." He said looking at me sternly. Well there goes my time bonding with Jarred. I thought I didn't mean it seriously. But I did. We got up simotainiously and stormed out into the hall. Vlad was already rushing towards us, Juniper was running a long side him with an confused expression. "What's going on?" She asked as we all met up in a circle. "Come on think." Jarred said staring at her. Her eyes lit up in shock, she probably got the sense. "We have to go." Vlads expression was pretty grim. His eyes started to glow, "You can smell it can't you?" I asked him quietly as I was standing next to him. He turned to me and came close to my face. I jerked back a little, he then followed again. "Listen, I need to.. Leave. Now. I can smell it, you're right." He said seriously. "Okay go. Hurry up, before we get there." Jarred nodded as he listened in. Juniper stared at Vlad, "Why did he...-" she cut herself off as the smell got stronger throughout the hall. "What in the..." Jarred said rushing outside. Juniper and I looked at each other and followed him out. I stopped her mid way, "Here." I said handing her my Uchigatana. "For now." I said sternly. "You'll make more use of it than me." I said weakly smiling at her. "But." I cut her off. " I have my dagger." I reassured her and nodded my head. "How could you?!" Jarred screamed. Juniper and I bursted through the door to see Tsuki holding a little girl. Her whip was tied around the little girls neck, tightly. "Let her go." Jarred said aggressively. "Not until I get Junipie." Tsuki said grimly, very unlike her since we saw her last time. Juniper gasped and shouted, "let her go!" Tsuki shifted. The girl cried out and held onto the whip around her neck. "I'm not going to ask again." She said staring soullessly at Jarred. "I got in trouble from Simon when I told him you guys managed to get away from me." She said agressivly. "And you! How are you still alive?!" She said flashing behind me. I was shocked, I didn't have my armour on. I got scared, genuinely. "I'll take you as a prize when I take Junipie." She said grabbing me by my neck and pushing me down to the ground.. I look up and see juniper push Tsuki agressivly with her shoulder, ramming her. "How dare you?! I'm tired of these games!" She screamed about to whip Juniper. She braced herself as Jarred dashed in front taking the full front damage of the hit. He didn't even blink. "You've caused enough harm to our place. It's time for you to leave." He said pulling his sword out. The whirring activated as he pulled it out of its sheath. It started to glow a dark blue and tinge of red. I was helped up by juniper, when she finished she pulled out her other blade and readied her battle stance.
