Pure Knight

Sixteenth Sword

  A few days after her check-up, Michelle was trying not to kill two idiot royals; who were staring at her from the other side of a horse drawn carriage. She was ignoring them; while her anger simmered on the surface, as she looked out the window. Her eyes swung the nervous Marie. She had finally come out of her clinic, and the 'house'. She may be nervous now, but she as really handy with a knife, and would love to experiment on vampires. What really made her nervous, were the two twin royal bloods sitting across from them.

  She leaned into Michelle. "They're intimidating, aren't they?" Michelle sat back. "No, they're  actually annoying." The carriage came to a stop. "We're here." The men climbed out first, and held their hands out for Marie and Michelle. Marie climbed out first, as Michelle sighed, thinking back to a few days ago before this happened.

 After Horus had sat down and watched her, Set burst in and saw her naked as well; causing her temper to explode and throw them both the fuck out. A few hours after that, her mother called them back in, but they had to stay on the far side of the room. Michelle was hissing next to her, like a threatened cat. Vanessa sighed, and ruffled her hair. "Now Michelle, you need to calm down." Michelle calmed down the hissing, but stayed far away. Vanessa took a breath. "Alright, it seems Mich, that there is a gathering for vampire nobles, purebloods, and other vampires, in order to discuss the recent attacks of the vampires, you call the 'Deathless Ones'. I still find it annoying that every time your around, one shows up, and tries to kill you." Michelle thought she saw steam coming out of her head.

  "So, you want me to go there as a guardian?" Vanessa crossed her arms. "Yes, and no." She crossed over, ad sat next to her. "You were technically one of the witnesses to these vampires, also, you first discovered them, and you fought them directly. So...the vampire council wants to question you, and get the details of how these vampires are made, and how to fight them directly." She pinched her nose. "Now, since these two are together," She pointed to Set and Horus. "Which is going to be a major problem, and a power struggle...probably. They will also be on the vampire council, and any other Royal that is found." She hugged Michelle close to her chest. "And you Horus, keep your fangs away from my daughter's neck, or the next time I'll have your fangs for a necklace." She gave a smile, while Set laughed behind his hand.

  Michelle came back to the present, as she grabbed Horus's hand, and stepped from the carriage. "I'm lucky and annoyed, that Taylor had a dress for me....with a little extra underneath." She also sighed. "Let's get this over with." She wore the necklace that Horus sent her in that letter, and her necklace with the two coffins. She had a feeling something wasn't going to go right tonight, and something would as well. Marie stood next to Michelle, as they looked around. "This place is so big." Marie pushed her glasses up her nose. Their dresses sort of matched, but were also different at the same time. They both wore halter corsets, but Michelle's wrapped around her neck, while Marie's criss-crossed across her chest. They both hand long skirts, that flowed when they moved, but Michelle's trailed a few feet on the ground, while Marie had hers down to her ankles. They both had slits in the skirt, but Marie had the right side, and Michelle had both sides.

 Set and Horus pulled them toward one of the tables, and sat them down. They left after a few minutes, to greet, and meet the council. Marie and Michelle sighed in relief as they left. Marie gulped, all these vampires made her nervous. She was curious, and wanted to dissect one, but it still creeped her out. "Um, Michelle?" Michelle turned toward her. "What's wrong?" Marie took a breath. "Why did you want me to come? You could've asked Liberty, or Fido, or Icy. They'd fit in better than me." She clasped her hands under the table. "I'm just a human doctor, with nothing but a PhD, and a few other awards." She hung her head, with a blush. Michelle blinked at her, and then laughed. "Your not just a human, your my friend, and besides," She huffed out a breath. "If I invited Liberty, she would go on a blood lust killing spree, at anyone who looked at me funny. Fido would probably bite, or eat anyone that thought I was dinner or a snack, and Icy would just freeze anyone, before they even had a thought. So you, are the better choice, and you won't kill anyone, unless you absolutely have to. Plus, it's nice to have another human around. All these damn vampires get on my nerves, and my temper explodes."
