Cleo took a deep breath then let it out "You see here Lukas I only believe you as you were telling your stories because I had flash back of my babyhood plus I see flashes of a face always have since I was little and now you are here and I know now it was your face I keep seeing. Everyone thought I was crazy for see them so in the end I kept it to myself." Cleo looked at him with a curious look. "Why do I keep seeing your face? Was it cos of the blood?" Lukas took a moment to answer as he wasn't sure himself. "I honestly don't know Cleodora, but I do know that the angel blood still flows in your blood and always will. It helps you to stay healthy and fit plus it will stop you from ageing so quick. Seeing flashes of my face I don't know why that is, maybe its because you have some of my blood and can sense I am near. Tell me did you have a flash before I knocked on the door?" Cleo was thinking back at school and everywhere she went people always said she looked few years younger then she was. "The last flash I had was yesterday afternoon after class" "yesterday down the road from the bus stop?" " yeah how did you know?" "I was there hidden watching, since I heard about the vampires are after you I been keeping an eye on you more often. Maybe you only have flashes when you don't know I'm there but sense it somehow and get a flash." Cleo looked a little shocked "you said more often, how often did you use to watch out for me before?" "about once or twice a month, now its been once or twice a week. Why do you ask?" Lukas replied Cleo was remembering back and she she was in primary it use to be five times a month then when she it hit high school it was two are three times month. But the last few months its been at least twice a week. "I think you are right about the sensing you near when I don't know you are there. Have you been keeping watch for the last few months?" Lukas looked at her with a small smile "I have, have you been having flashes quite often lately?" "I have and i honestly hope it stops now that I know who you are. It gets really annoying specially when I'm in class trying to do my work" "I honestly don't know how it works, its still new to me, but for your sake I hope it does."
As they were waiting for trouble to come knocking, they sat chatting the night away. Cleo must of fallen asleep on the couch once again, as this time she was woken by thunder outside. She sat up and looked around, Rex was laying on the ground next to the couch. Dante and Lukas was sitting at the kitchen table. She was kinda hoping this was all a big weird dream and that when she woke up that she would be alone. She stood up and walked into the kitchen and looked at the the time, it was 5:27am and just little over half an hour it will start to become daylight. "Shouldn't you be going to bed soon Dante? Soon it will become daylight." Dante turned around and looked at Cleo "yes I should be but I was just telling Lucas that what use will I be if I'm asleep in the basement in house that behind you" "but what use will you be if you turn to ash by the sunlight? If it makes you happy you can stay in my cellar so you are closer just in case we need you" "she has a point there, you won't be any help if you are a pile of ash and staying in here basement is a good idea" says Lukas. "I guess sleeping in your cellar is better then staying in another house or staying up to turn in to a pile of ash." He gives Cleo a small smile and says "that's for offering me to stay and if there is any sign of trouble don't be afraid to wake me" "she will be fine I'll be near her all day, then you can take over watching here at night" "well that's good and that sounds like a plan to me" "excuse me, I am here and I do have a say in this since it's my life and I got things to do and places to go" with that both boys look up at the same time and say "you won't know we are here we will keep to the shadows" Dante stands up and ask "where is your basement to?" Cleo points towards the passage way and tells him that the stairs are in the a small room behind the first door on the left. Dante thanks her and heads for the cellar.
