Chapter 7
“We'll be fine, Yoko," Lita answered. The receptionist
looked at her two guests then at the two humans at the door. A nod from Lita
told her that there was business between all of them. She lowered her head reverently
then left the room. "Good job of tracking us," Lita complimented once
Yoko was gone.
Nephrite held up a small scroll and the glowed an amber color before the
writing dissipated. "I put this on the back of your Ninja," he replied
smugly.
Lita raised an eyebrow then sat down at the table. A small kettle of warm
crimson was sitting on the garden table waiting for them. She motioned for Ami
to sit as well. Ami's features frosted under their watchful stares. "So," Ami began, "what is that
you want to know?"
"Are you a vampire?" Zoicite blurted out. It was all too surreal. He had
a past life and possibly powers. Now here he was dealing with mythical
monsters.
"Are you sure you want to know?" Ami asked.
Zoicite's eyes narrowed. "Stop playing games," he replied staring
into her eyes.
"If we tell you'll have to be killed," Lita said some what playfully.
She poured herself a glass of crimson.
Nephrite rolled his eyes. He wasn't the slightest bit worried about what these
two could to him. They had been running from them all morning. The only way
they could be a real threat was if they were elders or something. "I'm
sure we'll manage," he scoffed.
Ami raised an eyebrow and looked towards Lita who only smiled into her glass.
Lita was impossible! She was having too much fun with this situation. The dark
haired woman looked towards the two men then nodded her head. A slight smirk
formed on her countenance of near stoicism. "Yes, I...we are
vampires," she answered.
Zoicite's eyes widened slightly. "Why didn't you bite me? I was sleeping
in the next room."
"I wasn't hungry," Ami replied, "and I don't do that
anymore." Sapphire met emerald. "Is there anything else you want to
know?"
Zoicite shook his head. This was a lot of information to take in all at once.
"I have a question," Nephrite replied. His eyes lingered on Lita for
a moment then turned back to Ami. "I remember you, but not like this."
Ami nodded. "I didn't know that you regained your memory of the
past," she said coolly. "I was once a sailor scout and Princess of
Mercury, but that was centuries ago."
"It's a very long story," Lita replied coyly, "you don't want to
hear it."
"Do I look like the type to play games?" Nephrite asked angrily. This
was what he had been waiting for his whole life, answers and he was about to
get them. Everything had been leading up to this point, he knew that now and
this Amazon was the center of it all.
"No reason to yell," Lita snapped slightly annoyed. Where did he get off?
Her voice calmed. "I'm just giving you one last way out.
"I think we've come too far to go back now," Zoicite replied looking towards
Ami. "I can feel a connection to you." Blue eyes widened. "I know
my destiny is a part of yours, now tell me what's going on."
Ami looked downward sorrowfully then pounced Zoicite knocking him to the floor.
She quickly turned his head and bit him. "What the hell are you...?” Nephrite’s angry voice trailed as he was
attacked as well. Lita bit down into his sensitive flesh on the side of his
neck. He tore himself away from her and looked at her with fear for the first
time. He could feel his senses clouding as vision blurred. Lita moved slowly
towards him, he thought to finish the job, but she only put something under his
head. Now he was confused, she was trying to make him comfortable, why? Before
he could even begin to form the word on his lips darkness descended upon him.
Some time later azure orbs opened to reveal emerald ones staring down at him.
"What the hell happened?" Nephrite asked sitting up. He felt his body
as though disbelieving that he had not been mutilated. "We're alive."
Zoicite nodded. He touched the side of his neck absently. "I don't think
they were trying to kill us." He stood to his feet and looked around. This
looks like some sort of meeting chamber.
Nephrite stood to his feet. They were in a dimly lit chamber made out of stone.
It looked as old as the tombs he read about and dreamed of visiting. "That
woman," he growled lowly. "Let’s get out of here."
"We can't," he replied shaking his head. Nephrite formed a ball of
energy in his hand and threw it. The energy merely passed through the wall and dissipated.
Sensing the question in his eyes, Zoicite shook his head. "I tried that
already," he sighed producing an ice shard. It was obvious that he had
been using his time wisely. "For some reason, I got here a month before
you. Time is faster here. I haven't slept or felt hunger. People have come and
go without ever noticing me."
"We must in their memories," Nephrite concluded. "The only way
to get out is let everything play out. That woman tricked me."
"Well you did suggest that you didn't mind a long story," Zoicite
pointed out just before several figures entered the chamber and stood in a
circle. "Good something's finally happening."
"My, fellow elders, welcome," the leader greeted, "I have called
this meeting to discuss the threat that has us all in its grasp, the Hunters!"
Almost immediately the elders began to whisper among themselves in concern. The
leader silenced them. "We must join
together..."
"Join with you, Eliash, an Alpha?" One of the elders snapped.
"Where the mighty Alphas when Omega's and Chi's needed assistance?"
Eliash looked around nervously. He was already losing control. "I was
short sighted, I see that now. When one of us is threatened all of us
are."
The elder, Yelsha of the Omega who had spoken earlier, narrowed aquamarine
eyes. "I don't care what your reasons are; pride is not a luxury that I
can afford."
"Yes, Eliash, what is your plan?" Cassije, of the Chi's, asked.
Eliash smiled things were going his way perhaps they would continue to do so.
"The Hunters are powerful, but even they have a weakness," he began
his smile growing brighter. "Through the sacrifice of several, it has been
found that they are guarding the precious ones."
"The precious ones?" they murmured.
"Yes, their prince, princess, and her court," Eliash answered.
"They sleep with in each of our domains."
"I see what you're getting at," Dyiaeb commented. "We can use
them as a bargaining chip."
Hopeful murmurs stirred the stone meeting place. "What is our fall back if
the hunters are not willing to bargain?" Lylanos asked. He was the strategist
of the group, when they were working together that is. The Blonde Sigma looked
intently at the others. He could tell by their expressions that they did not
believe that the Hunters would not sacrifice the precious ones. "The
Hunters do not seem the type to give into terrorism; they just might sacrifice
the precious ones if threatened." The others looked towards Eliash.
A strange sense of calm surrounded him; he had planned for such an event in the
back of his mind. "If the Hunters will not bargain with us then we are
dead," he said simply. "The only thing we can do is imprint the precious
ones."
"You're joking," Yelsha snapped. "Imprint the precious
ones?"
"I think it's a good idea," Quitachi smiled. Her green eyes glinted. "No
matter what the outcome we are victorious."
"How do you figure?" Yelsha argued. She was starting think the leader
of the Psi’s was going mad along with Eliash.
"Imprinting the precious one's allows us to live on in some fashion. It's
poetic and one of Eliash's better plans. Bravo," Lylanos answered. He was getting
quite bored. "Perhaps they can even excel where we failed."
"I don't know about you, but I am far from dead," Yelsha replied.
Cassije put his hand on her shoulder. "Calm down, Yelsha, no one is giving
up. It's just an option and something we need to honestly anticipate."
The dark haired woman sighed then looked around. "Where are the precious
ones sleeping?"
"In the center of power within each domain," he
answered. "Each of the old crystal points from when the continents were
separate..."
A vassal rushed into the chambers bowing profusely. "Lord Eliash, our
security perimeter has been breached."
Eliash and the others looked around in alarm. They had been arguing so much
back and forth that they did not sense the Hunters. "Are you sure?" The
vassal nodded his head. "We have to get out of here if our plan is to
work."
"You mean your plan," Yelsha corrected. She had serious misgivings about
this operation. She was an elder and leader of the Omegas. There had to be
some way out of this. Imprinting the Precious Ones meant that all was lost.
There would be no talking or fight with the Hunters after that and she could
imagine that their vengeance would swift and deadly.
Eliash waved the vassal away then stared down the other members of the council.
"The time for fighting amongst ourselves has passed. If we all had taken
the Hunters more seriously perhaps we would not be in danger of extinction, but
we are in very real danger. Even now they are at our heels trying to stamp our
race out. Whether or not you believe it, we are desperate and I intend to
survive one way or another."
"Hear. Hear," Lylanos clapped. He pulled his jacket about him as
stood beside Eliash. "If we all make it through this I suggest a truce
amongst us. Fighting amongst ourselves drew attention to us in the first place
and it has lead us to where we are now." The
others nodded some more reluctantly. The blond smiled then brandished his fangs
before biting his finger. Precious crimson oozed from his injury. "This is
the symbol of the promise that I am binding myself and my clan to, though
separate we will be one." He placed a few drops in the center of the
chambers.
Eliash nodded then brought forth his crimson as well. "This is the symbol
of the promise..."
Zoicite and Nephrite watched as the elders formed a pact with each other then
exited the chambers. "So we are going to have to watch the history of the
clans until the girls are bitten? What do these elders have to do with
them?"
Nephrite shook his head. "I'm not sure," he answered. "But we
will soon find out."
