Kytara

"I'm hungry" Nero complains like a child. Every five minutes hes complaining. Hes hungry. Hes thirsty. His legs hurts. "Kytara lets stop and rest. Its almost dark anyway" Hope says and I turn to face them, "do you think the vamps are sleeping just because its night" I grumbled and Nero giggles. "No cause they come out at night" he laughs and Hope laugh with him. Hopeless. "Fine. We'll set up camp for today but tomorrow no more complaining" I said and they both jumped with joy. As I said. Hopeless.

The Hybrid and the angel sat around the fire, cooking a deer I killed when we were walking through the forest. Hope on the other hand just was eating a few apples she grabbed. The vegetarian angel was taught that taking a life is a demons job, even if its for survival purposes. "So I was never full told my missiom" he says and I sigh. Useless as well. "The vampires stole something important to us. Demons and angels alike. A special gem that keeps our worlds alive. With that gem they could take full control of the human world. No more humans would go to heaven or hell. They would be trapped with the vampires in their dimension even in the afterlife. Hell and Heaven would lose its life force. The souls that keep it alive. We would ciest to exist" I said and Hope looked upset. "We need to get the four keys off the horsemen to shut down their plan. We need the four keys. Famines will close the vampire dimensions world cause the ones in their dimension to starve. Pestilence has the one to posion humans blood so vampires cant drink from them without dying. War has the one to create rage in all the vampires so they turn on each other and Death has the key to lock the stone down and wipe their race clean. We never thought we would have to face the day this happened" I said and Nero nodded. For a while everyone was silent until Hope said she was gonna try cheering everyone up. Oh great.

She startes singing, playing music on a small device her father must have given her. I do get jealous of angel sometimes. And humans. The only music I ever heard was the song my masters sister, Kristen used to sing to me when I couldnt sleep. I still remember her soft voice, the same lyrics she used to sing to me. Mid thought, water was splashed on me. I look over to see Nero staring at me with fear. Hope had jumped up and was hiding behind him a little. "WHAT!" I snapped a little frustrated that once again I was soaked cause Nero thought throwing stuff on me was nice. "You....uh...were generating fire or something" Nero says and I look down. The sand beneath me had heated up so much it was glass and I noticed my hands where red and looked burnt. Oh no. Not again. I jumped up and grabbed my bag. "You guys should sleep." I said and walked away, leaving them behind before they could protest. I walked far enough away that I could still see them but id hear them coming if they tried sneaking up on me. I cant get emotional. I'll risk burning everything again. I lay down my sleeping bag and just lay on top of it, ignoring the cool air causing me to shiver. I cant be weak. I didnt bother huddling underneath the sleeping bag I just remained where I was, facing the weather that was just as harsh as I was.
