Zack nods at Natasha, he heard her stomach growl. â€œMaybe also get something to eat as well. How about a hotel to crash at?â€ He says. Then he looks at her, â€œIt may not look like it<span style="font-style: italic">yet</span>but that is the sure sign that he is going to have one. When that happens, we need to stay away from him. Heâ€™ll kill us or hurt us, but of course on accident, he canâ€™t control what happens to him.â€ He says. He looks at Dagger with a worried expression. Natasha could tell they have been friends for along time. â€œAnd donâ€™t ask me what is going on inside his head either, I dunno, so many bad things have happened to him, that itâ€™s not funny, youâ€™d swear all he has is bad Karma.â€ He says explaining. â€œThatâ€™s why he doesnâ€™t let people get close, let people in, cause usually they end up dying or getting hurt.â€ He adds. Of course he was telling the truth. â€œI should know, Iâ€™ve witnessed it several times.â€ He adds as they continue to walk down the side walk behind Dagger.<span style="font-style: italic"> I hope we can get off the streets before anything does happen.</span>He thinks. He was now silent.<br/><br/>Dagger walks ahead of them silent, which was unusual for him. He had so many memories and images thrown at him from his subconscious that he didnâ€™t know what to do. Eventually it would push him over the edge. He was trying to sort them out, trying to figure out if these memories and images were real or something made up by his conscious and subconscious to protect him from the hurt and pain of all the bad things that had happened to him. He didnâ€™t know what to believe. But the reason he forgot that he promised Mari was because of experiments and the wars. They had jumbled up many of his memories and twisted them to make them seem bad. Or he completely forgot because of things that had happened in his life, he just wanted to forget everything about his past. That was something he didnâ€™t want to relive, he would rather be in another war or even die than relive his horrid past. He continued to walk long silently, ignoring everything around him.<span style="font-style: italic"> None of this happened until she showed upâ€¦ god damn itâ€¦</span>he thinks. If he had never been forced into this then this wouldnâ€™t be happening to him right now.<br/><br/>Then another memory of her and him flashed before his face.<span style="font-style: italic">Mari was crying, burying her face into his chest. This time they were adults, in their early twenties. He had just told her that he was leaving and never coming back. â€œNo!â€ She wailed as she buried her face into him. Of course this was the day before he goes to the bar to drink away his anger and gets turned. â€œIâ€™m tired of livinâ€™ withâ€™em and seeinâ€™em treat my mother and sisters like that. If I donâ€™t leave now, Iâ€™m gonna get hanged for murder. â€˜Cause Iâ€™m gonna murderâ€™em!â€ he says to her. She just starts to wail even more after he says that. He lets out a sigh and the pries her from him. And then he begins to walk away from him. â€œDagger! Please! NO!â€ is what she shouts as he walks away.</span>Then as he continues to walk, another memories appears.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">This time it was a few days after he was turned and a few days after he had died. It was also a few days after he came back from the grave as a vampire and had killed his family- or at least his father, grandmother, step brother and accidentally killed his mother. And also burning down a church full of innocent people. He doesnâ€™t know why, but something to him to go the way he was going. He was heading toward where Mari had or is still living in. He gets there and knocks on the door. Of course Mari answers it and jumps into his arms. â€œYouâ€™re back! Youâ€™re back! I knew you couldnâ€™t really be dead! Youâ€™ve come back as an angel!â€ She says joyfully. He rolls his eyes that was the same thing his mother had said. Then she backs up and looks at him in fear. â€œY-you donâ€™t have a heart-beat! Youâ€™re still dead! A demon!â€ She says. Dagger shakes his head, â€œNo, Iâ€™m a vampire.â€ He says. Mari looks at him wide eyed and goes to go back into the house. Of course he couldnâ€™t follow; he had to be invited in. â€œJust stay away! Donâ€™t come any closer! Go away!â€ She snaps. Dagger sighs and leaves, moving on to another location. </span><br/><br/>Dagger then blinks and punches the nearest object which happened to be an abandoned dumpster in an alley. Besides putting a huge dent in it, he sent it flying through the air. It hit the side of a building with a loud bang, putting a crack in the wall of the building. Zack looks at Natasha, â€œThatâ€™s another sign, we better hope heâ€™s just taking his anger out on that for some reason and not totally losing it.â€ He says as they walk behind him. Bystanders just look at Dagger in awe. Dagger then continues to walk down the side walk, not really knowing where he was going.
