Vanessa heard her name being called. She had seen a fog fill the house, heard and smelled all of men die. Now she heard the girl calling to her. But she was frightened as she krept from her hiding place in the attic. Was she really safe? She had heard of a vampire who controlled the elements, an Elder. Was he the one who had saved her?<br/><br/>Vanessa slipped past the dead bodies, ignoring the pull to drink of them. When she reached the main floor, she stayed in the shadows. "Why should I trust the girl who betrayed me to those hunters?" Vanessa asked out loud.<br/><br/>She entered the sitting room and saw him, her heart, if it existed, leaped into her throat. It was the Elder she had heard so much about. Vanessa trembled as she came closer to him. "Why do you not kill the one who betrayed me?" She asked him softly. She came to within 20 feet of the vampire and stopped.
