Chapter 5
"Your girlfriend is a vampire," Nephrite
announced before picking up his glass.
Zoicite shook his head. "She
didn't turn into a bat, she turned into a wolf. Anything she should be
werewolf."
"First of all vampires are shape shifters, they
can become animals, mist, or a human form," Nephrite answered.
"Second you came to me with answers and then question me. If you don't
like what I have to say then tough your girlfriend is still a vampire."
"Fine, she's a vampire. Why didn't she burn up
in the sunlight?" he asked.
Nephrite looked thoughtful for a second. "You
said that the wolf jumped
out
of the closet. Her wolf form must be the only way she can survive in the
sunlight."
"You're serious?" Zoicite
asked incredulously. He was having trouble accepting the situation despite how
much it actually made sense. "There are no such..." his sentence
trailed as Nephrite held his hand up and produced a small ball of energy.
"I never told you or the others, but we have
survived two life times together. The details are still unclear to me, but in
every life time we come together and our fates are intertwined by four
others." The energy dissipated and he stood to his feet and paced Zoicite's living room. "I have been having visions
four shadows surrounding us, one of the shadows revealed herself and last night
I saw her in the club. She literally fell into my arms."
"And you were going to tell us when?" Zoicite asked.
Nephrite smirked ironically. Finally someone was
ready to listen. "I have talked all of you on some scale many times,"
he answered. "Everyone tells me to calm down."
"Well let me be the
first to say I am sorry," Zoicite replied.
"Don't patronize me," Nephrite snapped.
"I'm serious," Zoicite
said. He stood to his feet and ran his hands through his hair. "If she's a
vampire, why didn't she kill me. I was sleeping right
here on the couch, she could have killed me and I would've never known."
He began pacing the floor as well.
"Obviously she was not hungry."
"I need to see her again."
"Out of the question," Nephrite said
quickly. He stopped in his pacing. "We don't know what we're dealing with, I expect the woman I met last night was a vampire as
well. She seemed to have a affinity towards
electricity which I have as well."
"You failed to mention that," Zoicite snorted.
"You didn't ask," the brunette replied.
"I want to know more about our past
lives," Zoicite said, "I think there's a
connection between us and what's going on now. I feel like I am being drawn
into something."
Nephrite snickered. "This may take awhile.”

“…and with the formation of the Multigem
Conglomerate we can become more of a financial powerhouse,” Beryl finished. She
stood and walked over to Darien.
He sighed as he tried to maintain his patience.
“Beryl, I think I have been more than tolerant of your little game to keep me
here.”
A crimson eyebrow raised
innocently. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Don’t insult me,” he replied annoyed. “I’m sure you
know why I am here.”
Beryl sat down and crossed her legs thoughtfully.
“What does the almighty council decree this time?”
“You are a member…”
“No, you were a member of the council,” she
corrected. “They never saw eye to eye with us and you sold yourself to them.”
Her anger managed to creep into her voice making her eyes shine with an unholy
light. “They never understood our ideals,” her pupils stretched into large
slits as her iris widened, “yet and still you left me for her.”
Darien narrowed his own eyes. He
knew she was testing him to see if he had weakened living in harmony. He
brandished his fangs and hissed at her. “I am still an elder,” he threatened.
Beryl pulled back. Though the oldest of the clan
after Darien,
she was not an elder, but what she lacked in power she more than made up for in
tatical imagination. This was the reason why she had
been by Darien’s
side, the reason he once loved her. She turned away. The pain was still too
close to the surface. “I see the pampered life has not weakened you
temperament.”
“Your presence is mandatory at the next council
meeting,” he replied simply. “No more games. No exceptions.”
Beryl glared her forceful acknowledgement. “Get out
of my sight,” she said angrily.
Darien turned on his heel only too
glad to leave. His mission was accomplished and he could get home to his wife.
Before leaving he checked himself in the mirror, the base that he applied to
his skin before leaving seemed to be holding up. He had anticipated Beryl delaying
him and was prepared.
Once Darien
was gone, Beryl looked towards Leucian. The blonde
had been silently standing in the corner the whole time. “I want the council
followed and I want details of their activities.”
“The council?” Leucian
asked.
“They have become entirely too jumpy lately and I
want to know why,” she answered.
“Yes, my Lady,” he replied then left the room to
delegate her latest task.
Beryl yawned as the door closed. It was quite late,
but she had no desire to go home. All that awaited her was loneliness and her
memories. She needed a distraction to pass the time.

Lita yawned as she walked
down the stairs of her flat. Her sock covered feet reached the bottom step when
she heard the scratching sound that woke her up in the first place. "Who's
there?" she asked grumpily. She walked over to the door and leaned against
it. There was no way that she was going to lift the peephole cover and look
into it in broad daylight.
"Who's there?" she repeated. She sighed
when she heard only the scratching noise. "If you can understand what I'm
saying, there's a doggy door around the back in the kitchen. I'll be waiting
for you in there." She stepped away from the door.
"There had better been a good reason for waking
me up," she mumbled as she walked away. Once she reached the kitchen, her
eyes widened at the midnight blue wolf stood pulling a leatherish
looking sack through the doggy door. "Ami?" she asked.
The wolf made a muffled barking sound then turned
around once her burden was through the small portal. She dropped the small
package then shifted into human form. "Hi, Lita," Ami greeted sheepishly.
"Hi," she smiled and threw an apron
towards her friend. "So where have you been?"
Ami flushed and she tied the apron around her.
"It's not what you think. I was..."
"So you're telling me that you were not out all night with a
guy?" Lita asked putting her hands on her hips.
"Well...I..." her sentence trailed as her
cheeks grew even more crimson. "It was not what
you think. I... he took me home."
Emerald eyes widened. "Did anything
happen?" she asked grabbing Ami's shoulders.
Ami shook her head. "He was a gentleman
actually....but he knows about me."
"What do you mean? You didn't bite him did
you?"
"No, I woke up alone and the sun was shining
through the curtains," Ami explained. Lita
gasped as she saw fading red marks on friend's shoulder and arm. "I jumped
out of bed without thinking and ran into the closet. Of course before I could
get out, he came in with breakfast and knocked him to the ground. I was so
embarrassed..."
Lita wrapped her arms around her
friend. "So why do you think he knows about you?" she asked in a
soothing voice.
"He called me by my name and without thinking I
responded."
"Why would he...how would he..."
"I don't know." Ami shook her head and
pulled away. She ran her hands through her hair. "He just knew."
"Okay," Lita
said calmly, "but it's possible that he doesn't know anything."
"Anything is possible," Ami sighed.
"I'll have to see him to make sure."
"I guess we both have some cleaning up to
do," Lita said moving over to the kitchen table.
She pulled out a chair and sat down just before motioning Ami to do so well.
“What happened?”
Lita shook her head and
chuckled. “I thought I was chasing you and a group of guys going into an alley,”
she answered. Ami’s eyes widened. “But when I got there I found a bunch of
rogue Alphas getting ready to…”
“I get the picture,” Ami interrupted.
“But there’s more,” Lita
replied. She reached for a nearby plate of cookies and offered Ami some. Ami
took one and nodded for the brunette to continue. “They were about to come
after me when someone made wall of fire and fricasseed them.”
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. But it was in hot in there. I checked to
make sure the girl was safe then got out of sight by jumping onto a building.
That was when I saw him,” she finished somewhat dreamily.
“Saw whom?” Ami asked slightly annoyed. It was not
the time to fall in love. They were endangering the masquerade that they all
worked so hard to keep. This was the exact type of situation that the Iotas were putting everyone in when they got out of hand.
“Nephrite,” Lita replied.
Her lips curved into a smile as her voice took on an almost schoolgirl like
quality. “At first I didn’t realize it was him. I was never that close to him,
but later I realized it was him. He’s even better looking in person. Film does
not do him justice.”
Ami sighed and touched the bridge of her nose. “Lita.”
“I know. I know. This is not the time to get a crush
and all of that. No matter what I think, I can’t help that I feel attracted to
him. There’s something about his eyes…I feel like I’ve always known him.”
“Yes, he was our enemy,” Ami interjected as she
stood to her feet.
“Neprhite was defeated
before I met you and the others,” Lita added. “I
still feel a connection and I didn’t expose myself on purpose. He had been
watching me.”
“Really?” Ami asked sitting back
down. She touched her lips thoughtfully. “You said he created a wall of fire.
How did he… did you use your voice?”
Lita
nodded. “It didn’t stop him. He did seem pissed that I tried.” She smiled. For
some reason, complicating Nephrite’s life gave her pleasure.
“I have to see him again,” Ami said
suddenly.
“That good, huh?”
Lita teased.
“Right now it’s pertinant
that they don’t know about us…at least until we’re ready.”
“When will that be?” Lita asked. “Ever since we discovered that they are the
ones. I’ve...”
“This is just destiny playing itself
out,” Ami argued.
“Why are you so dead set against
giving this a try? You don’t have to be estactic like
Mina, but..”
“I don’t want someone to love me
because Serena said so,” Ami snapped. She balled her fists in annoyance as he
cheeks flushed crimson.
“It’s not like that and you
know it,” Lita said softly.
"But that’s how, I feel," Ami sighed. She
put her hand to the bridge of her nose for a moment. "I have to take care
of Zoicite before something happens."
"You need to get dressed first," Lita replied. She stood and threw Ami her clothes. The blue
haired girl nodded and left the kitchen to change. Lita
followed suit. They both had cleaning up to do and the brunette did not think
that Ami should be alone right now.
"Ready?" Lita
asked fifteen minutes later. She picked up a pair sunglasses.
"You don’t have to come?" Ami replied
checking her concealment in the mirror. She was satisfied that she had the
proper coverage.
Lita nodded. "Yes, I do. We’re friends. We’ve been through
lifetimes together."
Ami smiled as she slipped on a pair of dark
sunglasses and opened the door. "Thanks."
"You’re welcome. Let’s take my bike we’ll be
able to slide in out without being noticed," Lita
suggested. "And you’re dressed for it."
"Very funny," Ami chuckled. She was
grateful that Lita had dropped the subject for now,
but she had a feeling that it would be coming up later.
"Safety first," Lita
sang handing Ami a helmet.
"Where’s yours?"
Lita smiled as she draped a graceful leg across the bike.
"I have a hard head," she answered.
"I am not going to say anything," Ami
smiled. She put the helmet on her head and got behind her friend.
"And we’re off," Lita
announced as she started to engine. They were about to go tearing down the
driveway and into the street when a car pulled in front of them. Both vehicles
stopped abruptly as the owners sensed a collisions. "What the hell are you
thinking?" she shouted as she got off her bike. "You could have
killed us."
"You should watch where you are going,"
the driver said arrogantly as he stepped out of the car.
"You?" Lita and Nephrite said in unison
as the recognized each other.
"Look this was a mistake," Zoicite interjected as he got out of the car. "We were
all careless…" his sentence trailed as he noticed the girl still sitting
on the bike. No matter what he went she always seemed to appear out nowhere
there was no fighting it. He had to find out what was going on. "Ami?"
Ami nodded. "We didn’t have to go looking
for trouble it found us."
