Hope

A very wet Kytara came through the bushes with Nero trailing behind. I raise a questioning eyebrow. Kytara glared at me, "Don't talk, Angel. I'm going to bed." I giggle and watch her walk away. She is so oblivious to her feelings. Its so funny. I look up at Nero. His eyes are glazed over as he watches her walk away. So whipped man. I cough and throw him a towel. "Dry your self. Your too wet." I giggle and watch him blush but he masks it. "Snowflake, since when are you thinking dirty?" I smile at him, "What are you talking about?" Innocent. Well not quite. What? So what if I'm giving them a push. They are going to end up together with or without my help.

I stand up. "Foods in the bag. Share. Ill be back, I need to check up on my father." Lies. I wanted them to have more time before we have to go. "Hey, whats wrong?" Nero asks. I realise I was staring. I shake my head an smile. "Nothing. Ill be back." Is it weird to feel...jealous? Cause right now, I'm feeling pretty jealous of a demon. A demon. And you know, that me and Nero cannot happen. Fates are fate. But, I'm falling for Nero. His sweet smile, the evil remarks, the promises he makes to try and keep us safe. I cant have him though. I never can.

Snapping of trees and swishing of bushes makes me tense and turn towards the noise. I sigh in relief, just a bird, nothing more. I walk on again but the noise happens. "Okay Nero, Kytara. You've had your fun." I say out loud. They are playing with me.

Deep chuckles I don't recognise made me shiver. "Nero? Kytara?" I laugh nervously. I'm totally scared now. Four figures emerge from the shadows of the trees with grinning faces. You can tell by the paleness of their skin to the dark red eyes that they are vampires. Okay, I may pee my pants. Where is Kytara when you need her. I gulp and take a step back. "Lookie here boys, an angel." The one who must be the leader announced. "She looks sweet, the boss could use her. Big money." One on the leaders side said causing others to agree. Okay, so no one is coming to save me so, I'm going to have to save myself. Father gave me a blade just in case. I smiled, thank you daddy.

I pull it out and eye the vampires. I can do this. I can right? Kill someone? They are already dead though. Right, but I can kill them making them die, again right? My conscience rolled her eyes. Your an angel. Right.

They lunged at me and I stuck out the blade. It got into the vampires heart making him fall to ash. I was wide eyed. Okay. The others lunged and I eventually left with the leader. I felt sticky with blood. My blood? Or their blood? Either way, I wanted a shower. "You are not a particular angel are you?" I shake my head, "you could say that." I nervously laugh under breath. Fangs out, he goes to my neck but the blade hit home. I backed away and looked at my hands and white jump suit. Blood. Oh god. I killed people. Breathing heavily I teleported to the camp. Nero and Kytara sat there quietly. Kytara smelt blood and snapped her head to me. "What the fuck?" I was shaking. I killed people. They were vampires, not people. "Hope? Hope? What happened? Is that your blood?" Nero asks. I step back from him, "I-I killed..." I trail off, the scene playing in my head. Hands landed on my shoulders. "Hope? Who did you kill?" I didn't look at him, I was scared. I killed people. I have blood on my hands. No angel like me is suppose to kill. "Hope?" I look up, "I killed...killed four vamps. Just south behind me...I killed...blood...everywhere. No suppose...Disgraced...Ill die." I was losing it.
