					<div class="bbWrapper">The black, wide-brimmed hat obscured the features of the individual approaching the abandoned town. The man imagined it was a woman from the long hair, but the leather attire she was wearing obscured her features from this distance. The long coat, in particular, made it difficult to ascertain what she was.<br>
<br>
<br>
A man observed her approach as anxiety started to grip him with each step forward she took. There was something inhuman about her, though his mind couldn’t understand why.<br>
<br>
<br>
The sun was directly above them, minimizing all shadows.<br>
<br>
<br>
And yet, the black-haired man was certain of it. He lifted a walkie-talkie up to his lips and pressed down the button to say, “We may have a problem,” lifted his finger from it, then pressed down again to add, “We have a stranger approaching, north side. I’m going to investigate.” With that, the man rose and ran across the roof he had been sitting on. His feet didn’t slide, and he reached the edge, hopped down and reached one gloved hand up to catch the edge of the roof. With that grip, he swung himself into the open window and landed neatly on his booted feet.<br>
<br>
<br>
He jogged down the steps of the home, and out into the open street. He moved forward, reaching what they’d determined to be the entrance of the town, and he waited.<br>
<br>
<br>
The woman didn’t cease her approach. He could tell her hair was not some light shade of blonde soon enough, but white. <i>‘But how?’</i> She came to a stop some feet away from him. Very little of her skin was visible beneath her leather attire, and in fact, he didn’t get a good look at how pale it was until she lifted her head so he could see her eyes. They were scarlet in hue, abnormal, though he’d been told his violet eyes were unusual.<br>
<br>
<br>
Red only meant one thing. His mind didn't draw up the name immediately, but he knew it wasn't good. “What do you want here?” He demanded of her, reaching for the blade at his hip.<br>
<br>
<br>
“You have a vampire held hostage.” She answered, speaking in something of a soft monotone. “I am here for the vampire.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Friends?” A wicked smile cut across his lips, “Sorry darlin’, but we intend to do away with the vamp.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“You’re making a mistake.” She continued in that quiet monotone, a confidence in her posture and tone that was difficult to ignore. He noticed then that she had a sword on her, partially obscured by the way the coat hung. It was on her back, though, so he didn’t imagine it was much of a threat. It would take her time to get such a long thing out of the sheath on her back, or so he thought. “The vampire you’ve caught is on your side.”<br>
<br>
<br>
He sneered, “That so? And why should I believe you?” A once-over, “What are you?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Dhampir,” she answered, and his eyes went right back to her face, back to her eyes. Understanding dawned. “Evidently you’ve heard of them,” they weren’t common. Vampire unions with humans were rare, and rarely were they consensual any longer. Rarely were they products of love, and so rarely were the children allowed to live. “You have no reason to trust me,” and so she laid it out plainly, “but if you refuse to give me a chance, I will have no problems cutting through you.”<br>
<br>
<br>
He did consider the fact she wasn’t just attacking him, or the others. She was talking. Even so, he spoke harshly, “Shows how much you’re on our side.”<br>
<br>
<br>
She retorted, in that calm, monotonous way, “A vampire who sympathizes with humans is worth a hundred rebels.” For it was the truth. In this world, where vampires were gaining power by leaps and bounds, those vampires who would stand against that progress were becoming more important by the day—and too many of them were being found out by their kindred and executed, or else stupid rebels killed them.<br>
<br>
<br>
However, she didn’t wish to kill them. Seeing that talking alone was going to get her nowhere, she reached back for her sword. With a tug to the left, the blade left its sheathe, the latch that kept it there opening with that bit of pressure, and she threw it to his feet as he grabbed for his knife. She held her hands in front of herself, “I have no desire to spill any blood, though. Your group is skilled, and I admire that you have captured her.”<br>
<br>
<br>
She felt a smirk pull at her lips, but didn’t allow it to manifest as the man in the dark jeans and tank top looked down at her blade, dumbfounded. He put one booted foot over it and kicked the sword further away from her. <i>‘Now can we please move forward?’</i> More than anything, she wanted out of the sun, and there were plenty of nice houses here. Apparently, at least one good enough to store a vampire in, too.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"Would somebody please explain to me why exactly you have sentenced me to death?" The vampire asked, peering through the silver bars put over the door to the room she was being held in. "You have held me here for days, I deserve to know why you want to kill me!" She said, louder this time. She pulled on the chains around her wrists. There were more chains around her ankles, preventing her from moving much. The chains were heavy and uncomfortable, and she had been changed up like this for days now.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Oh, well, if you <i>deserve</i> to know why we're going to kill you, I guess I have to explain everything." A voice said. The vampire sighed. She was glad that somebody had finally replied to her, but she wasn't happy with the voice's sarcastic tone. She recognized the voice as the one belonging to who she assumed was the leader of this rebel group, based on how many times she had heard him giving orders.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If you are going to kill for no other than the fact that I am a vampire, you are a narrow minded fool." She said, leaning against the wall. She was sitting on a bed pushed against the side of the room. "I have no loyalty to the other vampires. Then again, I have no loyalty to the human rebels either, but I do find your rebellion admirable." She said, tugging at the chains again. She knew that struggling against the bonds was in vain, because even if she did get free of the chains, she was unarmed and outnumbered. That didn't stop her though.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If I were you, I would put more effort into catching and killing vampires who actually pose as a threat to your little movement." She continued. She heard the leader's voice again, and after a moment he stepped into view.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You're willing to say anything to try and save yourself, aren't you?" He sneered at her through the bars. The vampire glared. "You can beg all you want. We're still going to kill you."<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm not begging." The vampire grumbled.  She had too much pride to do something like beg for her life. She would, however, argue for it. "I can be an advantage to you." She argued. "I know things. About other vampires, leaders of groups, I've worked with them. Betrayed them." The leader shook his head slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You haven't even given up your name." He pointed out. "How am I supposed to believe  anything you say, when I don't even know your name?"  The vampire sighed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Only because I wasn't sure if anyone was listening." She said. "My name is Carla Davenport. Yes, I am a vampire but I am not a part of the vampire side." She said, watching the leader.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Not a part of the vampire side? What, then? Are you on our side?" The leader raised an eyebrow. He obviously didn't believe her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Not necessarily. It's called self preservation, love. It's not the difficult to understand." Carla let out a soft sigh. "In the last century, though, I have sided with more humans than vampires." Lately, she had been particularly bitter towards the other vampires. "Look, I don't expect you to believe me, but I am asking you to just listen. I'll make you a deal. Ask me anything, and I promise that I will answer to the best of my availability. In exchange for information, you let me live." She watched the leader, hoping that he would be smart enough to realize that she was telling the truth. She really didn't want to die.<br>
<br>
<br>
The leader opened his mouth to say something when one of the rebels he had watching the town connected him through the walkie-talkie tucked in his leather jacket's pocket. The leader scowled at the mention of trouble. He pulled out the walkie-talkie and held it to his mouth, turning away from the prisoner and walking down the hall. He heard the vampire call after him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You have to believe me!" She yelled. She sounded more than a little frustrating. He ignored her, going over to a window and peering outside. He spotted two figures, although he only recognized on of them as one of his rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If you think that the stranger poses an immediate threat, kill them." He instructed. "If not, bring them to the building where we're housing the prisoner and I'll deal with them." He said, pushing the toe of his worn combat boot against the wall. Catching their prisoner hadn't been easy. He didn't want some stranger showing up and jeopardizing the execution. The other rebels in the group were getting antsy. Finding this current vampire had taken longer than Merlin had thought it would. The rebels he led needed to feel like they were making some amount of progress, or they would begin to lose hope in their rebellion.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The walkie talkie buzzed through, and disrupted any actions or words that would have followed after the sword was kicked. It was then the dhampir let a smirk come to her lips, “Am I an <i>immediate</i> threat?” She emphasized the word, to the man’s disgust. She found it rather fortuitous that they wanted to bring her to the place where the prisoner was.<br>
<br>
<br>
It would mean much less killing if they decided not to get along with her. She’d just kill those in her way and off she’d be.<br>
<br>
<br>
The man didn’t answer immediately, but walked to pick up her sword. Then, he made a gesture, “Follow me,” he directed, and she did as told, following behind the man and towards a house not too terribly far. The man shoved open the door but didn’t bother to hold it open. The dhampir caught it before it could slam in her face, and strode calmly in.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel nodded to Merlin in greeting, “That’s her. Dhampir. Been saying some nonsense about how the vampire we’ve caught is on our side.” Gabriel’s tone suggested his doubt on the matter.<br>
<br>
<br>
The dhampir removed her hat. She disliked it immensely, but it was necessary in the sun. From where she entered, she couldn’t see the vampire they had captive, but she did speak to the rebel’s words, “Carla Davenport can be.” Her eyes shifted from the one who greeted her at the entrance to the town, to the figure he gave deference towards. Perhaps this was the leader, then. That would make things much quicker, “She isn’t well liked among her own,” murdering her sire hadn’t done her any favors. The dhampir imagined using the name would help the case. She had never met Carla, but she knew of her. She kept tabs on many vampires, after all, so she could properly hunt down the ones who deserved death.<br>
<br>
<br>
Too many hunters just killed vampires for being vampires. They were almost as bad as the vampires themselves, unwilling to think of compromise or ways of living together.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin nodded back at Gabriel as he and the stranger entered the building. He watching the stranger closely, looking surprised when Gabriel said that the stranger was a Dhampir. Despite hunting vampires almost his entirely life, he had never seen a Dhampir in person. He knew what they were, of course, but they were so rare it wasn't often someone came across one. His green eyes narrowed at what she said about the prisoner.<br>
<br>
<br>
"The prisoner said she was on our side. I didn't believe her, obviously." Merlin said to Gabriel.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla heard voices from down the hall. She frowned at the conversation. "See, leader?" She called out, loud enough for whoever was down the hall to hear her. "I told you I was telling the truth." She said. She had no idea who would be here speaking on her behalf. She heard that whoever it was, they were a Dhampir. That was surprising. Whatever the Dhampir's reason for defending her, she was right. Carla wasn't well liked among the other vampires.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm not sure who the Dhampir is, but she's right." She said, looking towards the door. Merlin heard what the prisoner was saying and frowned, turning towards the Dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Who are you, and how do you know who the prisoner is?" He questioned. "And why isn't she well liked?" He asked, glancing down the hall. He didn't believe either one of them, but somebody showing up to defend their prisoner was surprising.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I can answer that." Carla called out. "I killed the man who turned me." She fell silent then. She didn't regret killing him, but could she do it again she would have done it differently. Made it look like it was hunters or rebels that killed her would be husband. That way, she wouldn't have been treated as a traitor. Which she was, but siding with the vampires all of the time would have been helpful. Now, she was stuck siding with whoever believed her. At the moment, she was pretty sure both sides thought she deserved to die.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Well, at least these rebels were willing to listen. Carla immediately called out, confirming she was alive and conscious. The dhampir did not call back out to her, for of course Carla would agree. She was trying to save her own life. “My name is Evaline Adal,” she answered, doubting her name was known.<br>
<br>
<br>
Had this been two hundred years ago, the Adal name might have been. Her father hadn’t been an unknown. Opinions varied wildly, but it held weight. There were some vampires who knew she was still alive and spoke of her. “I do my research on vampires before I hunt them. I happened to research Carla,” she told the leader, calm and cool. “Her reasoning is the story I always hear. She killed her sire for blessing her with immortality, is how the vampires phrase it.”<br>
<br>
<br>
There were plenty of humans who did not want that blessing. Evaline’s mother had been one of them, and her father had always respected that. Her gaze moved to the one in black, “Would you want to be a vampire?” She asked him.<br>
<br>
<br>
He looked immediately revolted at the idea, “No.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline nodded, “Would you do the same in her shoes?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“More or less. I wouldn’t continue living.” There were always those humans who would pick suicide, too.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Then you can understand how a vampire can be aligned with you,” even if she was unwilling to take her own life. She wondered if this boy would actually do that, when put in the situation. Perhaps if he was able to do it the first day, but after? No, she imagined his resolve would waver.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin glanced back down the hall, towards the room where the prisoner was being held. If what the vampire and the dhampire said was true, then killing the vampire would be the wrong thing to do. If Carla had been telling the truth about being a help to the rebels, then killing her would be foolish. But if they were lying then freeing the vampire, and leaving the Dhampir free, would be putting all of the group in danger. He scowled.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla let out a soft sigh at what the one rebel said about not continuing to live as a vampire. "Suicide isn't an option for all of us." She grumbled, leaning against the wall and letting out a sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla had never been afraid to end her life. That wasn't why she hadn't killed herself. There were a few reasons that she was still living. First of all, other vampires had heard her kill her sire. She had planned on killing herself after killing him, but she didn't have time. Then, after being locked up for killing her sire, she hadn't had the means to end her life. After she finally escaped, she had wanted to find her brother. She had, but he hadn't reacted to her the way she hoped he would. He called her a monster, and didn't believe her when she said she hadn't chosen to be turned. It was after she ran away from her brother was when she realized that she couldn't end her life. She was afraid to. Of course, now she was used to being a vampire.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla shook her head slightly. It was amazing how something like her brother's rejection could still hurt, even after a few centuries. She hadn't realized how lucky she had had it when she hadn't been immortal. Pain repeated itself in a human lifespan, yes, but now it was endless.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Could you people please just hurry up and make up your mind about what you're going to do with me?" She called out. "These chains are hurting me." She said, tugging at them again.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin let out a frustrated sigh. He turned towards Gabriel. "Do you believe them?" He asked, running his hand through his hair.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel considered what had been said. What weighed on him, of course, was the thought of the unwilling vampires. He wanted to retort that there was always an option. If the vampire had wanted to die, they would have given her that death. He supposed, though, that it was a difficult decision. A life feeding on others could be justified.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘Not to me.’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
Even so, he could imagine it. He had that much creativity left. “Shit, Merlin,” he shook his head, but not in answer, in frustration and uncertainty. “I don’t know. I find it difficult to believe, but I can see how it might be.” He looked to the sword he still had in his hand, “Let’s…let’s give them the benefit of the doubt. If we’re wrong, we still outnumber them,” and they were at least presently disarmed.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Thank you,” and with that, Evaline made to move by the two rebels and into the room where the vampire was. She knew the vampire couldn’t go walking to freedom in the sun, and the rebels were going to want their help. She was concerned about the vampire’s health, and whether or not she was starving to death. She wasn’t certain how long Carla had been in here, after all.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin nodded thoughtfully. "Alright, let's do that." He said, turning and walking down the hall. He watched Evaline closely as he stepped into the room where they were holding Carla.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You try anything, you die. That goes for both of you. Got it?" He said gruffly, going over to Carla and taking the chains off of the vampire's wrists. She winced, scowling down at the red marks on her wrists where the chains had been. Merlin unchained her ankles as well before straightening.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Got it." She said, standing up. Her legs felt a little shaky from not walking much for the past few days. She took a few steps before leaning against the wall. She looked over at Evaline with a curious expression.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You said your name was Evaline Adal, right?" She said. "I knew about what happened with your mother and father. I'm sorry that they were killed." She said, watching the Dhampir. "Thank you, for coming here and helping me out." She said with a smile. Despite the smile, it was quite obvious that days of captivity had taken it's toll on the vampire. She looked exhausted.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel followed the two of them to where the vampire was being held, holding the sword tighter as he watched the vampire released from her chains. He noted that Evaline was also watching her with something akin to curiosity on her otherwise expressionless face.<br>
<br>
<br>
To Evaline, it was clear that the vampire needed a bit of time for recovery, which no doubt meant she was starved. A comment slipped Carla’s lips, and Evaline returned the smile, “Thank you,” there was no pain at the memory of either parents. She had come to terms with it in the centuries that passed. It hadn’t been their death with put her on this path, but love of them and a deep understanding of her father’s views.<br>
<br>
<br>
“And you’re welcome,” she walked forward, by the rebels,<br>
<br>
<br>
“What happened to your parents?”Gabriel asked. It was strange, asking about the relatives of vampires, or dhampir...he tended to just assume they didn't have people who cared. Their society seemed brutal enough.<br>
<br>
<br>
One shoulder was lifted in a shrug, “They were executed,” as if that was the obvious answer. To her, it was. “It was centuries ago.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel blinked. He hadn’t known dhampir lived so long. He hadn’t been sure about their lifespans, or really, much of anything. So, he was shocked as the next question slipped Evaline’s lips, directed to Carla. “Are you opposed to dhampir blood?” The question came, because she knew the vampire needed to feed, and none of the rebels were likely to donate. Dhampir blood wasn’t the most sustainable to other vampires, since it had that touch of unlife to it, but it was still better than animals and worked in a pinch.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline would get by a little longer. She could eat their food, after all. Eventually, she’d need to drink blood, but it was not an immediate need. “You look as if you need something.” It was her polite way of saying that Carla looked terrible right then.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla looked over at the rebel holding the sword, noticing that he tighten his grip on it when she was unchained. "I would have to be a complete idiot to try to attack you right this second, don't you think?" She said, looking a bit amused. She turned towards Evaline when the dhampir asked her about the blood. She paused with a slight frown.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I don't know." She said. "I've never fed off of a dhampir. You're the first one I've ever met." She said. "I didn't even know vampires could drink from dhampirs." She said thoughtfully. She figured that made sense. Dhampirs were part human, after all. She nodded silently when Evaline said that she looked like she needed something. "It's been almost a week. So, yeah, I need something." She said, brushing a few stray hairs out of her face. She probably looked terrible. Not drinking or sleeping for almost a week tended to do that to a vampire.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin watched Carla and Evaline with a raised eyebrow. "Uh... sorry about your parents." He said to Evaline. It may very well have been hunters or rebels that killed the dhampir's parents, but given that her parents were a vampire and a human, it may very well have been other vampires.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“I’ve met complete idiots,” Gabriel defended when the vampire spoke to him. He didn’t think the woman before him was a complete idiot—neither of them, really, but he still didn’t plan to let his guard down.<br>
<br>
<br>
Their talk moved to blood, and his skin did crawl at the thought. It wasn’t so much the feeding aspect as the risk that came with it, for him. Perhaps it didn’t apply to a dhampir, considering what they were. For him, he was too paranoid that he’d be turned into a vampire by their so-called kiss.<br>
<br>
<br>
Again, at the comment of her parents, Evaline shrugged it off. “Thank you,” she supposed it was only polite to thank people for their consideration, but as she’d said—centuries ago. As such, she moved on and kept with the present moment. She offered out her arm, “I’d prefer the arm, but if you must drink from the neck I won’t stop you.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel took a step back from the pair, glanced to Merlin, and then glanced towards the exit out into the hall. They needed to talk, and figure out what their next plans were going to be, considering their plans to kill this vampire had just taken a rather unexpected turn. Besides, he really didn’t want to watch someone get fed from.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin saw Gabriel glance at him and then the door. Merlin glanced back at Carla and Evaline before turning and leaving the room. Turning towards Gabriel, Merlin let out a sigh, running his hand through his hair as he tended to do when frustrated.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay, quick frankly I don't know what to do about either of them." He said, nodding towards the door leading to the room he had just walked out of. He knew that, as the leader, he was supposed to be the one who always knew what to do. His parents had always seemed to know what the smartest thing to do was. Of course, that was until one wrong decision had costed both of his parents their lives. Since then, Merlin was paranoid about making the wrong decision and causing the death of his rebels. Or himself, for that matter. "I have never met a vampire who was on our side. I don't think my parents ever did either. And with the dhampir.. her loyalties could go either way." He frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla watched Evaline, hearing the rebels leave the room but not paying much attention to them. "Alright." She said, taking a few steps forwards Evaline. Taking the dhampir's arm in her hands, she bent down a little and bit into the woman's arm. Her eyes fluttered shut as she drank. Evaline's blood was different from human blood. It wasn't as, well, human. But it was certainly better than nothing.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla didn't drink much, just enough to make her feel better. She didn't know how much blood a dhampir could lose without feeling ill. She pulled away, wiping her mouth on the back of her hand. She looked at Evaline, smiling slightly. "Thank you." She said. "I really appreciate you helping me out."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The bite was not a thing that the dhampir enjoyed. She took in one deep breath right before the woman bit into her arm, and let it out slowly as the blood was pulled from her veins. That was the bothersome part—that movement out. It was sickening if she focused on it for too long, and so she tried to distract herself by trying to listen to what was being discussed just outside.<br>
<br>
<br>
Her breath came out in a sigh of relief when the woman finished, and she immediately drew her arm back and pressed her hand over the wound. She applied pressure to help stifle the bleeding and gave a nod, “You’re welcome. I suspect you’ll need to rest, until the sun goes down at least, but I would…request you consider how we might assist this group.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla wasn’t known for being one of the overt rebels. In fact, the incident with her sire was considered by some to be a personal issue. Nothing that reflected her true feelings towards vampire society as a whole. Evaline knew that might be accurate, but she was being optimistic. “The way things are need to change. I hope that you see that.”<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel crossed his arms, not in any angry way, when Merlin began to express that he wasn’t sure what they ought to do next. He glanced towards the room with the two bloodsuckers and tried to think of options and possibilities.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin wasn’t wrong. This was a strange situation. Vampires supporting humans wasn’t unheard of, but he hadn’t ever seen it happen in his lifetime. He just remembered his former master used to speak of them in disgusted tones, claimed they all deserved what they got which was, always, death. It had made him think they might be extinct, though he supposed that so long as new vampires were ‘made’, there was always the chance that they might be with the humans.<br>
<br>
<br>
And then…dhampirs. Well, that was just a whole bundle of strangeness. He didn’t know enough about them. His former master hadn’t known much, either, except that he didn’t like them. “Well,” Gabriel looked back to Merlin, meeting his green eyes, “I suppose we should hold off announcing this to too many,” not until they had a plan, “and I guess…talk with them some. If they are with us, maybe they know a thing or two about how to get at the vampires that are against us.” They had struggled with that. Knowing the weaknesses of vampires was good and all for killing them, but they could only go individual by individual.<br>
<br>
<br>
Actually destroying the system was a different matter entirely.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla nodded when Evaline mentioned rest, going over and sitting back down on the end of the bed. She frowned slightly at what the dhampir said about assisting the group. "Yeah, I have to assist them somehow or they'll kill me." She said, looking at Evaline thoughtfully. "Do you support the humans completely?" She asked. "Or are you like me?" She paused. "I don't really support either side completely. I side with whatever side benefits me for a time being." She clarified, glancing towards the door.<br>
<br>
<br>
"So, at the moment, that side would be the humans." She said, looking back at the dhampire. She nodded slightly at what Evaline said about things needing to change. "I agree." She said softly, looking almost sad. How things were right now, she wasn't really accepted by anyone. She knew that wanting to find a group to belong to was a selfish want, especially compared to the horrible injustices that people faced, regardless of what they were. Humans killed vampires for no reason other than the fact that they were vampires. In return, vampires turned around and did the exact same thing to humans. She supposed it was a similar case regarding dhampirs.<br>
<br>
<br>
-*-*-*-*-*-<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin listened to Gabriel, nodding at what his fellow rebel said. "I really don't know how the others will react to this. One could argue that making a deal with a dhampir isn't as bad, since they <i>are</i> half human, but a deal with a vampire?" He shook his head slightly. "I really don't want to lie to everyone else, but for the time being I really don't know if telling them the whole truth is the best option." He frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Yeah, talking with them some more in the probably the best option." Merlin said, glancing towards the door for a second. "If there's one thing we could always use more of, it's information." He said. Information wasn't easy to obtain. First of all, getting information from vampires, even if they've been caught, isn't as easy as one might imagine. A lot of them were fiercely loyal to each other. Catching vampires at all wasn't easy, as they were rarely in an area where they could be captured without alerting other vampires. Finding and catching Carla had mainly been a stroke of good luck. They had only been tracking her for a while, after they had received reports of a lone vampire who didn't seem to have active communication with her fellow bloodsuckers. Of course, catching a more powerful and high ranking vampire would have been better, but the rebels took what they could get.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Alright, let's go find out what they know." Merlin said. He was really hoping that the vampire and dhampir could tell them <i>something</i> the group could use. If they couldn't keeping them alive for this long just made him look bad. He turned and headed back into the room. "I hope you're done feeding, as that's something I would rather not watch." He said, entering the room.</div>

What Carla revealed was not surprising, but Evaline found it disheartening. Her eyebrows lifted, but that was the most she gave as a physical reaction to Carla’s words. “My conscious would not let me sleep if I were like you,” it was a harsh way of putting it, but it was cowardice. Picking the winning side, simply because it was the winning side, was cowardice. There was no nice way to put it.<br>
<br>
<br>
She respected the vampires who were staunchly for human enslavement a touch more, because they stuck to their guns. They fought and died for it. She disagreed, of course. She hoped to change their minds, but that only happened rarely. “I’m for neither,” that was the honest answer, more honest than ‘both’. Vampires wanted humans enslaved. Humans wanted vampires eradicated.<br>
<br>
<br>
Both was impossible, when she looked at the extremes. “I just want them to live side-by-side” And Evaline would die for that. “There’s no reason they cannot.” Not in her head. Vampires didn’t need to kill to get blood—heck, they didn’t even need to take it from humans, if blood banks could be set up. If humans could see the benefit of having the years of experience that vampires had, and if vampires could see the innovation that came from humans….<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course, that was the problem. They didn’t see these things.<br>
<br>
<br>
The rebels returned then, and Merlin seemed to state the obvious about the situation. Obviously, Carla was done feeding. Evaline kept her hand on her wound.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel spoke up, “Look, we’re willing to trust you, but you’re still going to need to prove you have our best interests at heart,” he told the two of them, looking from the dhampir to the vampire. “If we’re on the same side to putting down the vampires who are causing this mess and enslaving humans, then prove it.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline arched an eyebrow, “And how would you have us do that?” Then she folded her arms, just so the wound was still kept out of sight, “I am not inclined to begin such serious discussions while I do not know your names, and while you continue to hold my sword.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla raised an eyebrow at Evaline with an amused smirk. "Alright then." She said. Obviously the dhampir didn't agree with how Carla thought. She nodded thoughtfully at what Evaline said about vampires and humans living side by side.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, I mean, everyone living side by side peacefully would ultimately be the best thing for everyone, but I really don't think it's that simple." She said. "The majority of vampires and humans alike are surprising stubborn when it comes to their beliefs." She looked at Evaline, remembering when she had thought that vampires and humans could live alongside each other. She had tried to convince the vampire who turned her that if he just let her remain human, they could coexist. Of course, he and the other vampires in the group he belonged to hadn't listened to her. That hadn't even been the last time she had tried to convince somebody that humans and vampires could get along.<br>
<br>
<br>
Now, she no longer believed that vampires and humans would ever change their ways so drastically. So she did what she could, doing whatever it took to remain alive. Although she wasn't quite sure why she even tried to live. Those thoughts were interrupted when the rebels entered the room again. She looked over at the rebel who wasn't the leader, and nodded.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, as long as what's in your best interest is also in my best interest, you have my cooperation." She said, looking from rebel to rebel, narrowing her eyes at Merlin. "But try to put me in chains again, and I'll kill you. I will not cooperate with you people if I'm treated as a prisoner." She paused. "And I agree with her," she said, nodding towards Evaline. "I'm not discussing anything more with you two until I know your names."<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked from Carla to Evaline, narrowing his eyes slightly at the vampire. "My name is Merlin." He informed then. "And his name is Gabriel." He said, nodding towards the other rebel. He looked over at the dhampir, shaking his head slightly. "You're not getting your sword, or any weapon for that matter, until I am completely sure that both of you are on our side." he informed her. "Forgive me for not taking any unnecessary chances with you two."</div>

There was no commenting more on the vampire’s opinion. After all, she fell into the group of stubborn beliefs, hers being self-interested. Even if she, and so many others, had thought that what the dhampir said was best, few ever worked for it. The dhampir could work at it the only way she knew how, which was unfortunately with violence.<br>
<br>
<br>
Which meant not having her sword was really quite bothersome. She could show them how absolutely useless that thing was going to be to them, but instead, she simply glared at the denial, and let her back hit the wall. Evaline had heard Merlin’s statement time and time again, and Eva still had no idea how one proved what he was asking. “Again,” she said, her voice still that ever-calm tone, but with the hints of an edge now, “You have not told us how we might assist you in proving this.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel didn’t discard the tone, but he decided it was likely in his best interest not to comment on it. He frowned and tried to think of what, indeed, could prove things to them. He asked, “What would you be doing, now, if you weren’t here?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline arched one white eyebrow, then shrugged and said, “I was in this area in the first place to deal with Lord Hercine.” He styled himself a Lord, anyway. He was certainly old enough to be considered among the vampiric aristoricracy, and got away with far  more than the regular vampire.<br>
<br>
<br>
He was even known among the humans, since Gabriel blurted, “Alone? That’s—”<br>
<br>
<br>
“—suicide?” She completed his thought, again fighting the urge to smirk as he glowered. “For you.” She’d been doing this for years. Vampires, like humans, reacted to dhampir the same—with wariness. There was never an outright attack. She’d been invited into several homes before she put the blade through their back.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla looked over at Evaline with a curious expression at the mention of Lord Hercine. She felt a familiar pang of anger and grief that came along with the mention of the vampire. He had wronged her one hundred years ago and yet, she was still angry. Lord Hercine had had a friend of Carla's executed. Carla's friend had been human, and after being accused of rallying other humans against Lord Hercine, she was killed. Which would have been bad enough. But Lord Hercine had lied to Carla, agreeing to the deal Carla proposed and then killing Diana, the human, anyway. So the rebels Carla had killed, and the leader Carla had delivered to Lord Hercine, had died for nothing.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, thinking you can take down Lord Hercine yourself is brave. It was also foolish and suicidal, but brave." She commented lightly, swallowing the lump in her throat. One hundred years ago, Carla hadn't been able to figure out how exactly to kill Lord Hercine without getting herself killed in the process. Luckily, she had been smart enough to realize that going after the vampire alone was a suicide mission.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin watched Evaline thoughtfully. He had heard of Lord Hercine, although he or his parents had never had anything to do with hunting the vampire. If the dhampir had been planning on dealing with the 'Lord', then obviously she had some sort of plan on how to do it. Which could end up working out well for Merlin and his group. Taking care of a powerful vampire like Lord Hercine would definitely make his rebels feel like they were making a difference. Merlin glanced over at the vampire, who had looked almost angry when Lord Hercine's name was first mentioned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Do you know him personally?" Merlin asked, looking at Carla with a suspicious expression.<br>
<br>
<br>
"No." Carla lied. "I just know enough about who is he to know that him dying would be a great thing for the human side." What happened between her and Lord Hercine was, quite frankly, none of anybody else's business. Plus, she couldn't have the rebels thinking that she wasn't <i>really</i> on their side, just using them to get revenge on a vampire who had wronged her one hundred years ago.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin paused, frowning slightly. "To answer your question," he said, turning towards Evaline. "To prove that you're on our side, you can help us take care of Lord Hercine."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">A quiet laugh escaped Evaline at Merlin’s final comment, “What’s so funny?” Gabriel inquired, and watched as the smile slipped lazily onto her lips when the laughter ceased, and she glanced between the two humans.<br>
<br>
<br>
“<i>I</i> can take care of Lord Hercine. Perhaps even Carla could,” she motioned towards the vampiress, “But I have no plan that has ever involved the use of humans.” She supposed she could try to think of one, but two centuries of working on her own made that a rather difficult task.<br>
<br>
<br>
“And how would you do it alone then?” Gabriel couldn’t even believe he was hearing that. Suicidal indeed, more than this Carla vampire.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Simple,” she said, “Lord Hercine won’t kill me on sight. All I need is a few seconds close to him.” The problematic part would be his guards and escaping them, or killing them, but she’d done it before. She was arrogant enough she could do it again. After all, she wasn’t dead yet.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel scowled, “They don’t know you?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Dhampir look alike,” and she didn’t give her real name to the vampires when they asked.<br>
<br>
<br>
Dhampir did have some common characteristics—fair hair and red eyes among them. The fact they were rare only helped her cause. It was unlikely Hercine had ever actually met a Dhampir, so she could easily give the name of one of those dhampir who were loyal to the cause of vampires, and be given entry.<br>
<br>
<br>
No one had gotten a decent picture of her. How could they? She had a shadow, but no reflection. Wonderful thing, that.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla raised an eyebrow at Evaline. "If killing him as simple as waltzing in and stabbing the guy, don't you think somebody would have killed him by now?" She asked. '<i>If it was as simple as she's making it sound, I would have killed him by now.'</i> She thought.<br>
<br>
<br>
"And yeah, I probably could take care of him. The problem is, he's such a powerful vampire I can't imagine he's ever not surrounded by guards." She said. "I can't imagine he's stayed alive for so many centuries by being super welcoming of strangers to his community, <i>especially</i> ones that are half human." She said, giving Evaline a pointed look.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly at Evaline when she laughed. "You asked how you could prove you're on our side. Helping us kill Lord Hercine is how you can do that." He said. "So, we need to come up with a way to kill the vampire with minimal risk involved because I really don't want to lose any of my people." He said, folding his arms across his chest. He turned to face the vampire with a glare when he heard Carla chuckle.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, if you don't want to lose any people I really wouldn't recommend just going there and killing him. If you do that, his people will hunt your people down until all of your people have died horrible deaths." She stated.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Do you have any ideas? Because I would just love to hear them." Merlin asked, sounding a little irritated.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well," Carla said. "In terms of how to hunt him, no. I don't typically hunt down people I want dead. Typically, I make them trust me and then betray them, thus causing their death in one way or another." She said with a slight smirk. "And before you think it, no, that's not what I'm doing with you people as I have no reason to." She clarified.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Two centuries of experience, and she was being told by young humans and a vampire that her idea wouldn’t work. Going it alone was unacceptable, even if it was a way she could clearly prove her worth. So, Evaline went silent and listened to them talk. <i>‘Of course there are guards. Of course he has lived this long for a reason. Of course he’s wary.’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
But she was too arrogant to care. She’d played this game hundred of times.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel was listening, and his face screwed up at Carla’s suggestion. He saw the pull of a smirk at Evaline’s lips, and couldn’t help but say, “You have plenty of reason to want to screw us over!” They had just captured Carla, and they were planning to kill her, after all. “But maybe you have a point…if you’re wanted dead in vampire society, perhaps,” he looked to Merlin, “Could we ransom her? Set up a meeting point off Lord Hercine’s grounds? He’d have less guards then, and we could secure the area with the others.”<br>
<br>
<br>
The dhampir arched a brow at their idea, but sticking with silence, said nothing. She was curious how Carla would react to being ‘ransomed’ to the vampire.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"Well, true." Carla said, looking over at Gabriel. "But if I don't at least try and cooperate with you people, you'll kill me. So, at the moment I can't do exactly to you without being killed by the other members of your group." She pointed out.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin huffed at the vampire. "You're right about that." He said, narrowing his eyes at the vampire. Carla raised an eyebrow at Gabriel's suggestion. "You would use me as ransom? Darling, you insult me." She narrowed her eyes at him.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin raised an eyebrow at Gabriel's suggestion. "Well, I mean, maybe." He mused. Carla let out a groan.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay, so, couple things. First of all, were you born yesterday?" She asked Gabriel. "Do you honestly think that the vampire Lord would have less guards around outside of his home, meeting up with <i>human rebels</i>?" She asked. "Second of all, I killed one vampire two hundred years ago. Of course, I've done things since that, but murdering my sire is the only thing they can <i>prove</i> that I did." She paused, looking over at dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If we're ransoming off anybody, it should probably be her." She said thoughtfully. "I'm sure Lord Hercine and his followers have heard of a dhampir that kills vampires. And since there aren't that many dhampirs, I'm sure they would believe that one committed most, if not all,  of those murders." Evaline had probably killed most of the vampires Carla was thinking of anyway. "Or, of course, we could give them you." She said, looking over at Merlin.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm sure Lord Hercine would just <i>love </i>a rebel leader." She said. <i>'I know he loves to get rebel leaders.' </i>She thought.<br>
<br>
<br>
"No." Merlin said flatly, giving the vampire a pointed look. "<i>I'm</i> not being ransomed off. Because if something would go wrong, obviously the first person they would kill would be the one right there, who they thought they were getting."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The dhampir had to bite her cheek to keep from commenting, several times. <i>‘Oi.’</i> Two hundred years, and this is what her life had come to. Two hundred years, and she was still dealing with this level of inadequacy. She thought humans were good at passing down information. Where were the hunters like Alexander?<br>
<br>
<br>
Her thoughts drifted to the ‘good times’ until conversation turned to offering her for ransom. She glanced to Carla, then to the hunters as it was suggested they could be offered up.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel shook his head immediately at the thought.<br>
<br>
<br>
“No way,” Gabriel said. “I’m not going to be offered up. You’re the only one who really makes any sense, if not as someone for Lord Hercine to kill, then as someone he wants to restore. A vampire captured makes them all look bad. We could say you’re someone else. He won’t know till the drop-off point. Though….” The comment about not having less guards came back.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline let out her breath in a sigh, seeming to read what was on Gabriel’s mind, “By necessity there will be less guards,” Gabriel’s attention snapped to her. His violet eyes did narrow on her, seeming to wonder if she had read his mind or if his thoughts were just that obvious.<br>
<br>
<br>
She spoke without acknowledging the look. “He has to leave some to guard his property. I doubt he’d spend money to hire more guards. He will bring his elites, though, and they will be prepared for assault. That’s the difference if we don’t strike him at his home.” There, the guards wouldn’t be ready.<br>
<br>
<br>
That was always her advantage.<br>
<br>
<br>
Her gaze shifted from Gabriel to Merlin. “If you think the ransom plot is still a good one, you can use me. Use my real name, use the name of another dhampir—I don’t care. My life will be in your hands,” she tilted her chin up a bit. “Is that good enough for you?” It was certainly showing a measure of faith in Merlin that he didn’t yet deserve, but someone had to do it. Eva knew it wouldn’t be the humans. Carla was too selfish.<br>
<br>
<br>
To move this along, she’d have to be willing to play the worst role in all of this. It was the only way she was going to get their trust. “I don’t even know of other dhampir. I didn’t even know of you,” Gabriel noted, expressing his ignorance. However, Carla had known the name. That ought to mean this Lord Hercine should know her, too. Hate her. He glanced to Merlin. He was game with this idea if Merlin was.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla looked amused when Gabriel mentioned Lord Hercine wanting to restore her. She highly doubted that, but voicing that thought would put her in a position where she would have to explain how she knew what the vampire did and did not want. She looked over at Evaline as she talked about the guards, smirking slightly despite herself.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ah, yes. A group of human rebels trying to outsmart a group of vampire elites." She said, glancing from Merlin to Gabriel with an amused glint in her eyes. "What could possibly go wrong?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course, Carla knew exactly what could go wrong. Lord Hercine could, and probably would, do the same thing to the rebels that he had done to her. Which was lie. Lie, and tell them that they had a deal while he never intends to let anybody leave. So, it would be a matter of whichever side attacked and killed the other side first. Of course, she didn't voice her knowledge. She would try and figure out a way to not be around when the 'deal' took place, saving herself. After all, what was it to her if these rebels died? Gabriel had been right when he said that she had plenty of reasons to want to screw them over. He hadn't been wrong.<br>
<br>
<br>
Although actually screwing the rebels over would be more complicated than simply withholding some information about their target. Carla didn't give withholding the information a second thought. It was none of their business. Plus, there was always a chance that this group would win. Of course, the vampire elites had a higher chance, but it wasn't like Carla was letting the rebels run off to a certain death.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla raised an eyebrow when Evaline offered up herself as bait. "Well, isn't that noble of you?" She said causally. She looked over at Gabriel.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Her entire family was sentenced to death. Including her," she said, nodding towards Evaline. "But she escaped. As far as I know, that death sentence still stands. And even if it doesn't, there are always all of the vampire that she has murdered. In the vampire's eyes, those murders made her deserve death."<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin listened to the conversation in silent, looking over at Evaline with a frown. Yes, her offering up herself to be used as bait was good enough. He tried to work out how being in the position of the bait could benefit Evaline in some way, if it could make her able to betray them, but he didn't think so. With any luck, Lord Hercine would be dead before anyone could betray the rebels to him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay," he said finally. "I think that just might work." He said, looking over at Evaline. "And, to answer your question, yes. Offering yourself as bait proves that you're on our side. So, if you remain loyal to the plan, you have my trust." He said. He looked over at Gabriel then.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You can give her her sword back." He said slowly. It was probably an idea to give Evaline back her sword. It was a show of good faith, if you will. Plus, Evaline <i>was</i> outnumbered, so even if she did try and attack someone, chances are he or Gabriel could stop her.</div>

<br>
<br>
Evaline wasn’t completely relying in the others. She knew better than that. The smirk that touched her lip at that didn’t leave when she was called ‘noble’. It endured through the description of her lurid past by the vampiress. She watched the faces and expressions of Merlin and Gabriel.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel was clearly fighting with himself over how he should feel. “It still stands, unless I show I am not like my father.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“What condemned him to death?” Gabriel asked.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Take a guess.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Curiously, Gabriel didn’t. Merlin’s order to return her sword came, and he just held it tighter. “She hasn’t actually done anything yet. She even <i>asked</i> if that would be enough.” If Evaline hadn’t been so confident throughout this, Gabriel might have relinquished the sword with no argument. As it was, how confident she was that she could kill Lord Hercine on her own, that she could even play bait, bothered him.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline rolled her eyes, but shrugged the sheathe of her sword off her back, “Here, then,” she held it out to Gabriel, “At least keep it properly, and bring it with you when we go to see Hercine. I’ll reclaim it there.” Once she got out of whatever bonds she’d have to pretend to be trapped in. She hoped they knew how to tie a decent knot that looked difficult, so she could slide her hands out simply.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel took the sheathe, and she asked, “How are you planning to get word to Hercine?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“I know how to get into the cities,” Gabriel answered. He didn’t reveal how. He was marked liked some once-slaves, and that tended to grant him passage. He could slip into a city, get the message into the hands of one of Hercine’s servants, or to the general mail, and run off. Hercine would be given a place and a time, but no more than that. No correspondence would return to the rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel just <i>hated</i> going into the cities. He was consistently paranoid that one day, someone would recognize him as escaped.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla listened to the conversation in silence, her mind racing. If the rebels and the dhampir succeeded in their little plan to kill Hercine, than her wish to get revenge against the vampire would be fulfilled. If only there was a way that this situation could work out well for her in some way.  Sure, having the vampire who had wronged her was great, but she found herself wishing that there was something else that she could do with the opportunity.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin watched Gabriel as the rebel refused to return the dhampir's sword. Merlin raised an eyebrow, but decided not to comment. Not right now anyway. It was probably best for the rebels not to appear to disagree or anything in front of the vampire and the dhampir. They would seem less organized and formal, and Merlin figured that that probably wasn't a good idea.<br>
<br>
<br>
He nodded silently when Gabriel mentioned going into the cities. "Alright, good idea." He commented. "Now we just have to figure out exactly when and where, and we should be good to go." He said.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla raised an eyebrow. "Now, how exactly does an unowned human rebel such as yourself get in and out of the cities unnoticed?" She asked, watching Gabriel. "In case you haven't noticed, humans are monitored pretty closely in the cities. Hell, nowadays they can barely get in and out of a building or anything without being questioned." She commented lightly.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel shot Carla a dirty look at her question, “Yeah, <i>I know</i>,” clearly not happy with her doubt when Merlin showed none. Merlin didn’t need to show doubt, though. He knew what state Gabriel was in, knew that if he could, Gabriel would have gotten rid of his mark long ago and not been able to get into the cities.<br>
<br>
<br>
But, it was necessary, in its twisted way, that Gabriel keep the mark. It helped this group in so many ways. He could even go in and purchase supplies in times of need.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Anyway,” he went back to Merlin’s point, “When and where. Sooner is better, so perhaps tomorrow night,” since tonight would be unfeasible. He saw the dhampir look off to the side at that, clearly agitated with the thought of waiting. “We won’t be sure he has the message until this night, and we can’t expect him to meet us on this night.”<br>
<br>
<br>
A nod was all he got from the dhampir, so he continued. “As to where, we can’t use these ruins or he’ll know we’re setting a trap, so we need neutral ground.” All ruins were good places to set traps. “Somewhere close enough to him that he can investigate it himself beforehand.” It would give him time to set up traps, too, but it would make it more likely that Lord Hercine would come.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin nodded at Gabriel. "Tomorrow night would work." he said. "Although I'm afraid I'm not sure where we should meet Hercine." he frowned slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla paused thoughtfully, watching the rebels for a moment before speaking up. "I know a place where we could set up the meet." She said, looking between the three others, her mind racing. "A friend of mine owns some property not terribly far from the city where Hercine lives, or here." She informed them. "I'm quite familiar with the property. There's one main building, used to be a slave house back in the day, but it's not being used now. It would be a good spot for our little trap."<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin raised an eyebrow at the vampire. "This friend of yours, why would they want to help some human rebels and a dhampir out in any way?" He questioned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, she's human. And I know for a fact that Hercine has enslaved some of her relatives. So she has a reason to want him dead. She also owes me a favor." Carla informed them. Her friend, Esmeralda, would be the perfect person to help her figure out exactly how Carla could benefit from the situation. The girl was smart, having avoided being captured by vampires for her entire life. Not to mention that Carla needed to offer something to the rebels to try and appear helpful.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><i>‘How interesting.’</i> Evaline raised an eyebrow at the suggestion Carla gave. It was a rare human who was able to hold on to any bit of land long enough for others to consider it their property. Usually, those humans were found and enslaved themselves. This friend had to be a rather decent hunter if she had survived so long.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel nodded his consent to the idea, “All right, if you could tell me where she lives, I can make sure that information gets to Hercine,” he looked to Carla for the information. He was good at memorizing, so he didn’t pick up any tool to right down the relevant information.<br>
<br>
<br>
Besides, even if he forgot a bit, he imagined Hercine wouldn’t get it mistaken.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline spoke, quiet, “Are you sure you wish to do this?” She let her gaze move to Carla, “Hercine will investigate the area before we meet. He may cause harm to your friend if he notices the property is not abandoned,” or he might not meet at all if he thought he did not hold the higher ground in the deal. A place owned by a human was risky.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla nodded when Gabriel asked for directions. She was about to answer when Evaline asked her if she was sure that she wanted to do this. The vampire paused before nodding.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Esmeralda lives a couple of miles north of the property. Her home is hidden. Even if the vampires look in the area, they'll never find her. She's almost never at the slave house. Trust me, the place looks abandoned. I was just there a couple of weeks ago." She said. About fifty years ago, Carla had used the property as a hiding place when she was being hunted by fellow vampires. That was before Esmeralda was born, Carla had known the girl's father, watched Esmeralda grow up. The girl was practically Carla's little sister.<br>
<br>
<br>
"The property is about seventy miles from the city. Hercine just needs to go west from the city's main entrance until he finds it. There's a road, it's never used, by it's easy enough to follow. Just tell him to follow to abandoned road until he finds the big, abandoned building." She informed Gabriel.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin listened to the conversation. "Alright," he said, once Carla had stopped talking. "Sounds like a plan then."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">It seemed this Esmeralda wasn’t advertising the property as owned. Smart. Evaline nodded and then let herself slide down the wall she’d been leaning against, so that she was now sitting. It wasn’t because she was comfortable in their presence, but she was considering the energy she needed to save. “We’re going to have to travel tonight,” she concluded when the mileage was mentioned.<br>
<br>
<br>
If a whole bunch of rebels were to travel that far, to get there by tomorrow, they’d have to start walking that night (thanks to the vampire). They would also have to find shelter from the sun for the vampire’s sake, but also hers.<br>
<br>
<br>
She was already depleted of blood. She wouldn’t be able to stand a full day in the sun and be able to survive if an accident happened with Lord Hercine tomorrow.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel noted that she wasn’t enthused, but that was to be expected. She was bait. He glanced to Merlin, “I’ll go now, and I’ll be back by evening,” his day was going to suck, too. No rest at all for him until the next sunrise. “Is there anything else I should get when I’m in the town?” Now was as good a time as any. They would all need to be prepared to deal with Hercine.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin would get the honor of telling everyone else, though, that they were going to go after Hercine with a dhampir as bait and a vampire on their side. Gabriel didn’t envy him that position at all.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin nodded at what the dhampir said about leaving tonight. "I agree. We'll leave as soon as the sun goes down. If you're not back by then, we'll wait." He said, turning and facing Gabriel. He paused at the other rebel's question about supplies. "Nothing that I can think of." He said finally. "I think everyone has what they'll need." He said.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Just be careful, alright?" He asked. He realized that he needed to tell the others what was going on. How exactly should he explain that he's made a deal with the enemy to take down a bigger enemy, who has survived through many rebel attacks before? He let out a soft sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I need a sword, or something." Carla informed Merlin. "Before we attack Hercine." Merlin gave her a look, with Carla ignored. The vampire looked over at Evaline.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Are you alright?" She asked, watching the dhampir.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel smiled a little at the concern, “I’ll be fine. I’ll see you soon,” Gabriel didn’t waste any time. He headed out the door and his steps could be heard taking him out of the building. He was gone before Carla made her request, which was likely a good thing. He would have protested that, too. He didn’t want to see anyone with vampiric blood in them holding weapons.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline chose to agree with Carla, “It would be good to have her armed if she is going to help,” she informed Merlin. Evaline already knew that she couldn’t be armed in approaching Hercine. She was bait, and she had to look like bait. That meant, no weapons. No armor. Nothing.<br>
<br>
<br>
At Carla’s query, she closed her eyes and lifted one shoulder in a shrug, “I will be,” meaning no, she was not presently fine. She relaxed her posture, “You should rest. We’ll have a lot of traveling to do.” She spoke to both Merlin and Carla, not sure how well the humans would do if they weren’t well-rested.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel had to leave the sword in the hands of another before he left. When he returned, he had it shoved back into his hands rather rudely, “What is it, Yvonne?” He asked, puzzled by the demonstration of anger.<br>
<br>
<br>
The dark-skinned woman shot him a glare, “We’re working with the leeches now,” she said as Gabriel started to put the blade over a shoulder. “That sword’s the dhampir’s, isn’t it?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Yeah….” He guessed that Merlin had informed the group at large. Reactions were clearly mixed, but he got them all to work together. In the evening light, he could see the rebels moving about to prepare to leave. “I think it’s gonna work out,” he said, “I got the letter into the hands of Hercine himself.”<br>
<br>
<br>
That had been an awkward moment, to see Hercine in the town. He’d run before Hercine had so much as opened the letter, and was out of the town in a heartbeat. “We’ll see,” Yvonne went back into one of the abandoned buildings where she was packing up the rest of the supplies.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel walked on, looking for Merlin. He saw first the dhampir, out in the evening sun and with quite a heavy-looking backpack strapped to her. “Robin, what are you doing?” He demanded when he saw the young rebel boy.<br>
<br>
<br>
Robin looked to Gabriel with guilt written on his face, but the dhampir didn’t so much as pass Gabriel a second look as she took the flask from Robin. “That’s the prisoner!”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Well, uh,” Robin flushed.<br>
<br>
<br>
“That water’s for us.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline drank of it all the more greedily when Gabriel said that, and made a show of wiping her hand by her lips when finished, and handed it back to Robin with a, “Thank you.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“She’s like us, isn’t she?” Robin asked, “I mean, she hunts vampires.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“She drinks blood.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“And water,” Evaline noted dryly, “Would you prefer I drank blood from someone?” <i>‘Would that save your precious supplies?’</i> Evaline was trying to be kind in keeping her own strength up. She didn’t let Gabriel answer, “Merlin’s in the house with Carla.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Right…be careful around her,” he warned Robin, before walking off to go after Merlin.<br>
<br>
<br>
Robin just rolled his eyes, “Sorry ‘bout him. He’s never known a good vampire.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline raised one silver eyebrow. “You have?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Yeah!” And Robin just became a thousand times more interesting to the dhampir.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla reached out and took the sword as Merlin handed it over to her. She inspected it for a moment before tucking it in the sheath hanging around the vampire's hips. She scowled, wishing she had <i>her</i> sword. She had lost it a few months ago, being an idiot and forgetting it in a rush to escape a hoard of vampires. She looked back up at the rebel leaders, noticing that he had tensed up and rested his hand on his own sword.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Do you really think that I would attack you?" She asked. "I would have to be an idiot to do that. Even if I did kill you, we're surrounded by your people. I'm smart enough to realize that I probably couldn't get out of here alive. No offense, love, but despite how you've treated me up until now, getting myself killed in an attempt on your life really isn't worth it." She said.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin narrowed his eyes at the vampire, not believing anything she was saying. "Excuse me for not taking any chances." He mumbled. He was admittedly in a bit of a foul mood. The rebels had reacted pretty much how he had expected them to, but that didn't mean that made the situation any more pleasant. He watched the vampire wearily as she walked passed him, out into the hall.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla stepped around the rebel leader, walking out into the hall. She spotted Gabriel and looked a little surprised. "Well, look who made it back alive!" She said with a slight smirk. "Honestly, I'm a little surprised."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel scowled at the vampire when he entered the home, and she was the one he encountered first. “I’ve been doing this for a while,” he told her, noted the sword. “I hope you can use that,” he didn’t have as much faith in her skill of fighting.<br>
<br>
<br>
It seemed they both doubted each other. Gabriel walked by her to go into the room where Merlin was. It was easy to tell his friend was in a bad mood, and Gabriel didn’t need any explanation for it. He knew exactly why based on Yvonne’s reaction.<br>
<br>
<br>
Robin was always the strange one. Yvonne’s reaction was likely akin to the rest of their group, “Hey there, miss me?” He greeted with a smile. He didn’t wait for a response, but went on to say, “I got the letter right into Lord Hercine’s hands,” he thought that would make Merlin feel more optimistic about things. Gabriel had not only done the task, he’d gone above and beyond by approaching the vampire himself.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"You live for two hundred years, darling, you learn how to handle a weapon." Carla commented lightly to Gabriel. She continued walking down the hall and then out of the house. After being in the same house for almost a week, being outside felt nice. She shut her eyes for a second, not moving until she heard footsteps. She opened her eyes slowly to see a burly blonde human walk past her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You best watch yourself, leech." The rebel sneered at her. "If Merlin hadn't asked us not to hurt you right now, you would be dead." Carla just chuckled softly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Has nobody ever taught you manners, boy?" She asked, starting to walk again before waiting to hear if the rebel spoke again. She kept walking until she spotted Evaline.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hey." She greeted the dhampir. "These rebels are terribly rude." She commented. "It's like they've never seen a nice lady with fangs before." She smirked, before noticing the young rebel by the dhampir. "Who's your friend?" She asked Evaline.<br>
<br>
<br>
After Carla left the room, Merlin let out a sigh, reaching up and pushing one hand through his hair. He really hoped this all went well. He knew that he was jeopardizing his people's faith in him by working with the 'leeches.' Not to mention the fact that he was also putting their lives at risk by going after a vampire like Hercine. He turned towards the door when he heard Gabriel, a relieved smile gracing his features.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hey, I'm glad you made it back okay." He said, raising an eyebrow when Gabriel said that he had delivered the message right to Hercine. "Really? Gabriel, that's great!" He said, looking more hopeful about the situation. At least now he knew that Hercine was aware of what was going on.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Is this vampire still alive?” Evaline had to know. She had to hope that others were alive who would help in the fight.<br>
<br>
<br>
Robin, however, looked down and shook his head, “No,” he spoke rather quietly, “She was killed a few years ago, but I got out,” and that was when he’d stumbled upon this group.<br>
<br>
<br>
Both Robin and Evaline perked up when the steps of someone approaching reached them, and Eva gave a small smile at the question, “This is Robin,” she said with a gesture towards the boy, curiously unmarked though Eva would bet he had been ‘owned’ by this vampiress he remembered. “He does not seem to be so rude.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Robin hadn’t taken part in the cruelty against Carla. He had not even seen it, since at that time he had been resting. His shift was mostly in the day, rather than the night, “Hello,” he sounded a bit nervous. He hadn’t seen or met Carla, and he didn’t know what sort of grudge she might hold against all of them.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel was happy to see that his words had the desired effect. Hope was brought back into their fearless leader’s face. “Thank you,” he said, taking the words in stride. “So, where can I be of help now?” He was certain he would get stuck carrying something. He just wasn’t sure what else needed to be packed up before they were able to leave these ruins and get on with things. “And uh…did you have any troubles?”<br>
<br>
<br>
He hesitated to ask, knowing the answer was ‘yes’. What he wanted were the details—who might be more troublesome than the others, and what more to expect from the rest of the group.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"Nice to meet you Robin." Carla said, watching the young rebel. He looked nervous. She smiled kindly at him. "I'm Carla, but you may know that already." She didn't recognize the human from when she was captured. Hopefully, that meant that Merlin was keeping such a young rebel out of the direct line of fighting.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm not sure if you're going to believe this, but you have no reason to be afraid of me." She said gently. She didn't like seeing such young humans involved with matters like the vampires versus human fight. She also didn't like the vampires who used young humans as servants. She found them particularly distasteful. She hoped that this young human had a better life among the rebels then among vampires.<br>
<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
Merlin paused for a second when Gabriel asked where he could help. "Well, when we go I want you up front with me." He said. "You can help watch the dhampir and especially the vampire, make sure they don't try to pull anything." He paused. "You seem the least likely to try and strangle one of them." He commented. He let out another sigh when Gabriel asked him if he had had any troubles.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, the others reacted how I expected them to." He said. "Although some were more tolerable of the situation than others. Robin is okay with it. I thought he would be. It look a lot of convincing just to make sure nobody would kill Evaline or Carla the second they stepped out of this house." Merlin informed Gabriel.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Yeah, I already knew,” Robin put a hand behind his head and let his fingers hide away in his black hair as he looked up at the woman. He was starting to grow now, being fourteen, but he was still shorter than a lot of people. “And I believe you, just…ya know, we weren’t that nice to you and I’ve had a few years with them. Not…normal to run into a nice vampire. Not with these people.”<br>
<br>
<br>
That was, of course, to be expected. Rebels and vampires didn’t tend to mingle on good terms. “I think we’re going to be on our way soon,” he told her, though suspected she already knew that. “Were you able to rest well?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline merely listened, preferring to observe the interactions for the moment. She did glance off towards the home now and then, wondering when Merlin would come out to get them all on the road. She also watched the other rebels, making sure none intended to cause them any harm. She might not have her sword, but she’d still bet she could take down most of them if they wanted to try anything.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel nodded. “I can do that,” he could easily stay up front with Merlin and watch the blood-suckers. That didn’t sound too challenging. “I’m surprised I’m in that role, though,” he would have thought Robin, but he supposed Merlin still saw Robin as too young.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel was probably one of the few in the group who thought Robin’s potential wasn’t being used nearly enough. He never pushed the issue, though. He didn’t need to remind anyone of when things began for him, least of all Merlin who was born into this life. “I knew you’d be able to convince them all,” Gabriel said, placing a hand momentarily on Merlin’s shoulder.<br>
<br>
<br>
He moved it away just as quickly, “C’mon. Let’s get them all moving, then.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin shrugged slightly at Gabriel's comment about being surprised he was in the role Merlin had asked him to fill. He trusted the other rebel to not attack either of the leeches. He felt a bit bad for thinking this, but in this sitaution he didn't really trust many of his people to leave the blood suckers alone. They hated vampires, and dhampirs by default. Merlin did too, of course, but he realized that working with them to take down Hercine was the best option. The lesser of two evils, if you would.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked over at Gabriel with a slight smile when he touched his shoulder. "Thanks for the confidence." he smiled. "And you're right. We should get going." He said, turning and walking towards the door. He walked down the hall and paused for a second before stepping out of the house. Everything would go according to plan. He just had to keep telling himself that.<br>
<br>
<br>
--<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla nodded in understanding. "No, I get it." She said to the young rebel. "I understand why your people did what they did." Of course she understood, but that didn't mean she wasn't a bit offended over the whole ordeal. She  didn't tell Robin this, however. Best not to make the young rebel freak out and say something to make the others attack her like a pack of crazed animals.<br>
<br>
<br>
When Robin asked her if she had rested well, she nodded slightly. "Well enough." She commented, glancing back towards the house that she had exited. "And you're right. There they are now." She said, watching Merlin leave the house.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">They walked under the light of the moon and rested during the day, since Carla couldn’t go out at all under the beams of the sun. They were close to the meeting grounds by the end of the first day, which was good. They didn’t want to be late for their meeting with Lord Hercine.<br>
<br>
<br>
When darkness fell, plans were made and rebels sent to various spots. They couldn’t all be visible to Hercine, after all.<br>
<br>
<br>
Two reports came to Merlin that night. The first came from Gabriel, who approached with clear caution. He dropped his voice to whisper, “Someone’s nearby,” Gabriel hadn’t ventured out to find out if it was a scout from Hercine, or someone else, but he had noticed the movements too close to where they’d made camp for the day.<br>
<br>
<br>
Robin came running up to him second to report, “Evaline isn’t waking up.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline wasn’t so much asleep as she was unwilling to move. She’d wrapped a scarf around her face and buried it in a pillow, but it didn’t get rid of the scent of the humans around her. Marching all yesterday had drained her, even though it had been at night. <i>‘Shouldn’t have let Carla drink, shouldn’t have….’</i> Her mind repeated, over and over, but she had known it was the only option. There’d be no convincing a human to let her drink. <i>‘So now you’ll starve until you go rabid?’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
She nearly dug her fangs into the pillow. She had ignored Robin when he came to get her and feigned sleep. <i>‘They’ll bind me up nice for Hercine soon enough. A starved dhampir will be convincing. Then….’</i> Water wasn’t going to fix this. Perhaps Hercine would have a loyal human with him she could tear into.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">When Gabriel approached Merlin with the news that somebody was quite close to them, the rebel leader wasn't sure what to do. If he sent somebody out, they might not come back if it was a vampire. He was musing over what to do when Robin came to him with the news about Evaline. He let out a long sigh, pushing his hand through his hair.<br>
<br>
<br>
"What's wrong with her?" He asked the young rebel. Maybe the dhampir was just tired. Or there was something else going on. That would be just fantastic.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla was just standing around near Merlin, not doing anything in particular. She was a bit tired from walking. She turned back towards the leader when she heard Gabriel mention somebody being nearby. Arching an eyebrow, she went over to the two rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
"It could be a scout of Hercine's." She commented lightly. She herself wasn't very worried. If they were attacked, she could say she was a prisoner. The vampires would believe her, at least long enough for her to get away. The vampire narrowed her eyes slightly and peered around the rebels. "Whoever it is, they're right there."<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked over at Carla, then towards the direction where she said the stranger was. He put a hand on his blade, tensing when he heard somebody.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Carla?" A shocked voice asked, a woman appearing out of the treeline. "You're alive! Jesus, I was worried." The woman was slender, with dark green eyes. Her blonde hair was in a braid that might have once been neat but now was anything but. She looked to be in her early twenties. Carla grinned, looking pleasantly surprised.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hey!" She greeted. She looked over at the rebels. "This is Esmeralda." She introduced her friend. Esmeralda looked at the rebels with a cautious expression. Her cream colored shirt was splattered with dirt. She had clearly been running. Esmeralda looked nervous, much like a deer.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Robin shook his head. He had no idea what was wrong with her, because she wouldn’t get up to tell him. He didn’t know if she was simply tired. He was pretty sure she was alive, though he didn’t get close enough to actually check that.<br>
<br>
<br>
It wasn’t the most crucial thing, though. A scout of Hercine’s was mentioned, “What?” Robin hadn’t heard what Gabriel said.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel quickly filled him in, “We’re being watched,” he stated, and Robin’s frown deepened. “Hopefully that’s all they intend to do,” he cast a glance in the direction that Carla indicated, a hand going to the dhampir’s blade. As Evaline had asked, he was bringing it along to this meeting with Hercine.<br>
<br>
<br>
Fortunately, it didn’t appear to be a scout. The one who stepped out was this Esmeralda individual. Gabriel relaxed his posture and Robin gave her a quick smile. Gabriel wasn’t so quick to look cheerful, “Is something the matter?” He asked Esmeralda, since her posture and expression showed her anxiety. It might just be that she was anxious to see a group like this moving through her territory, but there might be a larger problem, as well.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Esmeralda looked over at the rebel who asked her if something was wrong. She paused, looking over at Carla before narrowing her eyes. "Why should I answer you?" She asked, folding her arms over her chest. "Carla has marks on her wrists. Chain marks. That means you people chained her up." She pointed out, looking between the rebels with a disgusted glare.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla bite back a smirk at her friend. Merlin raised an eyebrow, looking over at the vampire as she chuckled.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Es, it's fine. Now, what's wrong? You look scared." Carla asked gently. Uncharacteristically gentle. Esmeralda let out a long sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Vampires, that's what wrong." She snapped. "A whole hoard of them, swarming that old slave house. Scared me half to death." Carla bit her lower lip.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Yeah.. that was my doing." She said. She took a minute and briefly explained the situation, telling Esmeralda the rebels's plans to kill Lord Hercine. She skipped over the details about her being held for a week. Best explain that part of the situation to Esmeralda later. Carla wouldn't put it past the human to lash out at one of the rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked nervous. Could this woman be trusted? She seemed to be close to Carla, a vampire, so Merlin's first thought was no, she could not be. But she was also human. So, much like Evaline, her loyalties could go either way. Speaking of Evaline, he should go see what was going on with her. Merlin felt yet another flutter of anxiety about their plan. What if something was wrong with the dhampir? Would the plan still go smoothly?<br>
<br>
<br>
Esmeralda looked between Carla and the rebels slowly. "Well.. okay." She said slowly. "That's an ambitious plan, that's for sure." She frowned slightly.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Things just insisted on being strange today. <i>‘Humans that care about vampires, a vampire willing to help us out, and a dhampir…of all things.’</i> Gabriel thought as he watched the exchange between Carla and Esmeralda. He remembered that Carla had said Esmeralda was a human and such, but actually watching this did make him wonder more and more about the woman with them.<br>
<br>
<br>
Perhaps she wasn’t so bad after all, if a human genuinely did care for her.<br>
<br>
<br>
The plan was explained to Esmeralda. “Thanks,” Gabriel said to Esmeralda’s comment, “Now we just need the dhampir and—,” he looked at Robin, then in the general direction he knew Evaline was. No sight of her. Well, he looked back to Robin, “Seriously, kid, go wake her up. Shake her or—no, that’s probably stupid,” he wouldn’t lay hands on a sleeping vampire, let alone a sleeping dhampir. God knew how they’d reaction. He’d need a pole or something. “I’ll go see,” he sighed and started to walk off, debating how he might go about this if the dhampir really wouldn’t get up.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin looked over at Gabriel when he started walking off towards Evaline. "I'll go with you." He said. He wanted to see what was going on with the dhampir as well. Plus, if she was going to freak out or something and try and attack somebody, the more people around her, the better. Merlin paused, looking over at Carla and Esmeralda.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla held up both hands with a slight smirk. "I promise that I won't do anything." She said. She wanted to be left alone with Esmeralda, she needed to talk to her friend in private. She needed to figure out if she could work this situation to her advantage. Merlin just nodded, giving Carla a look that clearly said <i>'If you try and do anything, I'll kill you.'</i><br>
<br>
<i><br>
</i><br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin walked over to Gabriel. "I wonder if she's getting scared." He commented thoughtfully. That wouldn't really surprise him. After all, if he was getting served up to a vampire lord, even if it was a fake deal, he imagined that he would be a little scared too. Or, there was something else going on with the dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla watched Merlin and Gabriel walk off, turning back towards Esmeralda.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Robin got the sense that he also shouldn’t stick around, “I’ll be near!” He offered to the two women, before he jogged off some distance from the two. He didn’t let them get out of his sight, but he did go to the perimeter of what was passing as their camp. He knew that he’d have to head off into the trees soon enough, to try and surround Hercine, but he didn’t have to leave just yet.<br>
<br>
<br>
Besides, the whole plan might go to hell if something was up with Evaline.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
“She didn’t really seem the sort to get scared,” though Gabriel supposed it could all be a front. He hoped the dhampir wasn’t getting cold feet at the last minute, though even he wouldn’t blame her for it.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline tensed when she heard the heavier footfall, and then Gabriel call out, “Hey, dhampir,” he set foot into the building, “You—”<br>
<br>
<br>
“No closer.”<br>
<br>
<br>
It was muffled, but Gabriel made out the hissed words quite clearly. He froze to the spot. “Er. We need…we need to be going soon.” There was something recognizably animalistic in her voice. He’d heard vampires who were bleeding out speak in that tone before. He saw no blood.<br>
<br>
<br>
“I know.” A shaky inhale was taken, and then, she composed herself enough to sit up, though clearly holding and using that breath. Her hands were clenched into fists around the cloth of the pillow. She spoke quickly, “Get whatever you need to bind me, and bind me tight.” She needed to breathe, but she was going to try to hold it as long as she could, because they all smelled too much like food.<br>
<br>
<br>
It had been much too long, and she’d clearly underestimated her need of blood. “I don’t want to hurt anyone, and none of you need to be weaker before facing down Hercine, so make haste.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla just nodded at Robin, watching the young rebel jog off. She turned back to Esmeralda, who was looking at her curiously.<br>
<br>
<br>
"So," the blonde said. "What exactly is your endgame here?" She asked the vampire, who shrugged slightly. Carla had no idea what her endgame was. That was the problem.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm not sure yet." Carla frowned slightly. Esmeralda looked at her friend for a moment without saying anything before letting out a soft sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Simply killing him isn't enough for you, is it?" Es asked, already knowing the answer. When Carla huffed softly, Es just nodded slightly. "Okay then." She paused. "You want to figure something else out, something that will cause Hercine more pain that simply killing him." Esmeralda knew about how Hercine had wronged Carla one hundred years ago. She didn't blame the vampire for wanting revenge. "Do the humans know about your personal history involving Hercine?"<br>
<br>
<br>
"No." Carla answered. "It's none of their business." Esmeralda looked like she wanted to disagree, tell Carla that the rebels were risking their lives so that meant that they probably deserved to know Carla's side of things, but thankfully she didn't say anything. Carla really wasn't in the mood to argue about morals. Morals were one thing that Esmeralda valued a hell of a lot more than Carla. Carla had always figured that it was because Esmeralda was human. As a whole, humans tended to worry more about morals and what was right and wrong more than vampires did. Vampires probably didn't worry as much because their very existence was wrong. They were the freaks of nature. Simply existing was a vampire's first crime. Humans didn't carry that burden.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
"True." Merlin mused. It had taken quite a bit of courage to volunteer to be bait at all. He paused when the two of them reached the building and Evaline told them not to come any closer. Immediately, he understood what was wrong with the dhampir. She needed blood. Desperately, judging by the sound of her voice.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay." He said simply. "Just stay in here." He instructed, looking at Gabriel before reaching out and pulling the door shut. "Well, that answers that." He commented, pushing his hand through his hair.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Come on, we have to get something to tie her up with." He said, nodding for Gabriel to follow him.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel followed after Merlin, not at all arguing with this plan. “I don’t think rope is going to cut it so well anymore,” Gabriel had intended just that originally, to then cut the dhampir free at the last moments before the deal went through, when the trap was going to be sprung.<br>
<br>
<br>
Now he wasn’t so sure about her grip on her own self-control. She was struggling with it already, and he was starting to worry about how this could all go wrong. At first, he’d been more worried about Carla, but now that he saw Esmeralda he had less doubts about her. It was clear she didn’t just think of humans as slaves or food. She saw more in humanity than that. The dhampir hadn’t been wrong.<br>
<br>
<br>
The dhampir, though…if she starved herself like this, even if it wasn’t in her nature to be ravenous, Gabriel knew she’d become that. <i>‘And blood will be spilt.’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin and Gabriel understood, immediately. They didn’t linger and make Evaline’s hunger all the worse, but went to their task. Evaline brought the pillow up again, brought her knees up to her chest, and then rested the pillow on them before bringing her head down to press her face against it.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘Inhale.’</i> Nothing but the scent of that pillow and the building. <i>‘Exhale.’</i> It was difficult to keep that quiet. She wanted to scream and tear something apart. She supposed that might be good, later, but it also might prove to be terrible. Evaline wanted to assist the rebels in combat, but right then she wasn’t so certain it was a good idea. <i>‘Patience. Wait and see.’</i> She told herself, and forced her body to relax.<br>
<br>
<br>
She did not need to be tensed to spring.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla let out a sigh, watching Esmeralda as the blonde frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why <i>exactly</i> did Hercine kill you friend?" The human asked. Carla paused for a second, her expression saddening.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hercine thought that Diana was going to lead an uprising against him.. among the other humans." The vampire explained softly. Esmeralda nodded slightly. Carla tucked some of her hair behind her ear, her eyes narrowing down at the ground.<br>
<br>
<br>
"But she wasn't going to?" Esmeralda questioned. Carla just shook her head. Diana would have told her if she was planning something like that. She had known that Carla would have helped. Carla had never been a fan of Hercine's, even before he wronged her. The vampire had irked her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"So she was ruined because of an unfortunate misunderstanding." Esmerlda said, clearly thinking outloud. "For being a rebel. Well, Carla, if you want to be clever in your revenge, then Hercine should be ruined for the same reason Diana was." Esmeralda grinned a little then. "I think you're influencing me, you know." The human chuckled softly. "I'm getting quite good at coming up with schemes and things." Carla smiled a little then.<br>
<br>
<br>
--<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked over at Gabriel as the other man mentioned rope. "I don't think so either." he frowned slightly. "I thought that would be easiest, but we can't have the dhampir getting loose and killing somebody." He let out a soft sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
While serving up a starving and weak dhampir to Hercine would seem more convincing, (After all, why would a prisoner be in good condition?) having the dhampir attack and possibly kill one of his people because she was starving was something that Merlin did <i>not</i> want to see happen.<br>
<br>
<br>
"We have to use chains." Merlin said. "And then hope for the best when it's time to free her for the trap."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel gave a nod of acceptance at the idea of chains. “All right, I know where some of those are,” chains weren’t tied. Chains were locked. That would add to the difficulty. He walked into one of the buildings where bags were left behind, unpacked, and started to dig through them. Eventually, his hands came to rest on the chains, and he pulled one out, along with a couple of locks to put between the links to hold it all together. He didn’t forget the keys.<br>
<br>
<br>
In his mind, he was trying to compose the best way to go about it as he nodded to Merlin and then started to walk back to where the dhampir was. “I can get them on her, you can…make sure she doesn’t do anything.”<br>
<br>
<br>
She was more or less where she had been left, and she didn’t lift her head to see them. “Can I approach now?” Gabriel asked.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline took a deep breath and held it. Then, she lifted her head, noted the chains, and nodded. Her evident distaste of the chains shone in her eyes, but she understood why it had to be this way.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel’s steps were still slow in the approach, measuring each gain to judge her reaction, but there was no incident to worry over. “Okay, hands behind,” and Evaline followed the instruction, struggling to hold her breath for longer. The chains were not too cold, at least. Just metal, and heavy.<br>
<br>
<br>
There was an inhale through the mouth, surprise, when she felt that metal wrap around her neck, after a lock had been secured at her hands. Gabriel couldn’t see it from his vantage points, but the fangs elongated. They would be retracted before he ever saw.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel did see the muscles tense, and he lifted one hand to press on the spot between her shoulder blades, as if it might help if she decided to strike. He said, “Balance. Chains are heavy. This will keep them in place.” He locked just a single strand of links around her neck, and then grabbed a hold of the trail that led up to it, “Up.”<br>
<br>
<br>
And up Evaline got.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The plan that Carla and Esmeralda came up with was messy and they both knew it. Although for being a rushed, whispered plan, thought up while being surrounded by human rebels ready to kill at any given second, this wasn't the worst thing Carla and Esmeralda had come up with. Carla could tell that Esmeralda was a little nervous herself. The woman kept to herself, not normally involving herself in matters of humans vs. vampires.<br>
<br>
<br>
Except, of course, when very once in a while Carla would come along and ask Esmeralda for help. Carla didn't think that her friend minded. The vampiress was very careful to keep the human out of harm's way. Carla already carried the guilt of too many deaths that shouldn't have happened; Esmeralda's blood would not be on her hands. Figuratively, that is, as Carla had drank from Esmeralda a few times in the past.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay, after I'm done delivering the message, I'll come right back." Esmeralda promised. "But I won't be able to get back before your meeting with Hercine." The blonde frowned slightly. Carla just shrugged.<br>
<br>
<br>
"That's fine." The vampiress said. She paused for a second. "Es, don't die, okay?" She said quietly. "If anything goes wrong, you get away, got it?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Esmeralda nodded. "Don't get yourself killed either." The human said, giving Carla a pointed look. And then she left, turning and running back in the way that she came. Carla watched her friend go, finally turning away when she could no longer see or hear the human.<br>
<br>
<br>
--<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin followed Gabriel to the building where the chains were and then back to Evaline in silence. He looked over at his fellow rebel when Gabriel suggested that Merlin watch Evaline while she was being chained up.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Alright, good thinking." He said, pausing at the doorway that led into the building. He put one hand on his blade, ready to draw it at any sign of trouble. He watched the dhampir, noticing her obvious distaste of the chains. That didn't surprise Merlin at all.<br>
<br>
<br>
Watching the dhampir be chained up, he noticed when Evaline's fangs elongated. Merlin drew in a sharp breathe, about to draw his blade when the dhampir seemed to get herself back under control. Merlin watched Evaline stand up before looking to Gabriel.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay... let's go." He said, stepping aside and motioning for Gabriel to take Evaline out in front of him. Despite the dhampir being chained up, he was still weary, although he knew that she really couldn't do anything now.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel kept one hand around the center chain and led Evaline out. She didn’t try to bite or fuss much, though he could see her twisting her hands in the chains. She gave one tug, and Gabriel knew that wasn’t at all near her full strength. She was clearly testing things. He wasn’t sure if he ought to advise her to cease, or if she was testing for the safety of all of them.<br>
<br>
<br>
He wasn’t brave enough to ask, either.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline was mentally cursing her own state as she walked—not of being starved and bound, but the dhampir one. Vampires didn’t need to breath, so they could avoid being bothered by the smell of blood when it didn’t suit them. She, on the other hand, needed to. <i>‘To breathe and to drink blood. To prefer shadows.’</i> Times like these, she did consider her ‘blessing’ more of a curse.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel led them back to where they’d left Carla, and Evaline bowed her head. Somehow, it was worse when vampires saw her this way. She remembered the smugness of a few too well.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel glanced around, then asked, “Where did your friend go?” Though he knew that probably wasn’t relevant right then, considering they had other places to be. “Do we need to wait for her?” He decided was a better question, considering time was of the essence. Being late would not be in their best interests. Hercine would have more time to prepare.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">When Carla heard the other approach, she turned around the face them. Her eyes wandered over to Evaline, and for a second her expression turned sympathetic as she watched the dhampir. Carla didn't particularly enjoy seeing anyone bound in chains, especially when the person bound was somebody who had saved her life. When Gabriel asked her about Esmeralda, Carla looked over at him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Esmeralda has people at her home, friends of hers. She went to make sure that they stayed put until the meeting with Hercine was over." Carla lied to the others. They wouldn't have any reason not to believe that. "She didn't want them getting themselves found and killed, or worse. We don't need to wait for her." The vampiress informed them. "If she decides to come back and help, she knows where we'll be."<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin glanced around them as well, making sure that there was nobody listening to them. He didn't think there would be, as he had scouts posted, but he figured that Hercine would have scouts as well. If the human friend of Carla's had found them, he didn't want to chance a vampire finding them too. As far as Merlin was concerned, they were currently in enemy territory, even if the land belonged to a human.<br>
<br>
<br>
He looked over at the vampiress as she informed them that Esmeralda had left. "Okay." He said, looking over at Evaline for a second. He hoped that she wouldn't loose control and try to escape the chains. This situation was messy enough as it was.<br>
<br>
<br>
"We need to get to the meeting place." He said. "It's almost time."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel accepted Carla’s words without much question. It made perfect sense, after all. Esmeralda had come to find out what was going on, and could now report back to those with her to make sure no one did anything stupid. “All right,” Gabriel said, almost at the same time as Merlin spoke his ‘okay’.<br>
<br>
<br>
He nodded to Merlin’s idea, too. “Yeah, better early than late at this point.” He felt his hand tighten around the chain, and asked, “Is everyone already set in position? Can we just walk there?” He wasn’t sure if there was any more organizing to do. He certainly hoped not.<br>
<br>
<br>
The dhampir hadn’t been terribly talkative before, but there was a terrible unease to her absolute silence now that he didn’t like. He could tell she was not breathing as much. No doubt, her desire not to talk came from a desire not to breathe, as well. Talking sort of required breath.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin looked over at Gabriel. "Yeah. Everything is all set up." He informed Gabriel. "We're within walking distance to the meeting place, so, yeah. We can just walk over." Merlin had made sure that the rebels were just far enough away from the meeting place to be well hidden, but close enough to get there quickly.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla shifted her weight from one foot to the other, watching the others. She was feeling a bit impatient, and she was worried about Esmeralda. The human wouldn't be going very far into the city herself, she had contacts that did that, but that didn't mean that Esmeralda wasn't in danger. Quite frankly, Carla didn't know what she would do if something happened to Esmeralda. Out of the people that Carla cared about, Esmeralda was all the vampiress had left.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I think we should try and get there before Hercine." Carla said, pushing away the dark thoughts. "Try and establish some form of control over the situation, you know?" Of course, they didn't really have much control over anything at the moment. They could plan all they wanted, but something could still go wrong. Carla wouldn't be in control until her plan was put in action. She couldn't wait.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Well, we can try,” Gabriel consented, “C’mon, let’s get moving then.” He moved a hand forward to touch Evaline’s shoulder and saw the way she flinched. However, when logic returned to her mind and not irritation at the touch, she understood to walk forward. Gabriel wasn’t going to let go of the chain, and he wasn’t going to walk in front of the dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
After all, it was the fangs that were the threat.<br>
<br>
<br>
They didn’t make it there before Hercine, but they made it unmolested, “Well, well.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline growled as she heard the lord click his tongue on the roof of his mouth. He was not alone, and no doubt, more than the four vampires visible were present. Hercine was obvious, the blonde vampire in the center with the golden epaulettes on his shoulders. “I almost didn’t believe you.” His eyes passed over Gabriel, whom he remembered seeing, “It’s a rare day a human would want to hand over another rebel for just money.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“It’s a dhampir,” Gabriel made sure to sound cold, and pleaded with whatever deity there was when he gave a strong push forward.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline stumbled forward, but didn’t fall. “She does look a bit like Lord Adal,” he remembered him, of course. Irksome scum who commiserated with the humans. He knew if it were true, she’d be worth a fortune to others. He’d make back any sum he gave…not that he really intended to give over anything. It was all for show.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline wasn’t paying him much attention. <i>‘Not one single human.’</i> She was frustrated with Hercine’s guard, and again pulled at the chains. She imagined she could break them. Hoped she could break them.<br>
<br>
<br>
“The money?” Gabriel asked, when he noticed Hercine’s gaze shift towards Carla.<br>
<br>
<br>
It wasn’t recognition that played upon his face, but curiosity to see another vampire present—another with the humans. It made him doubt the dhampir was the infamous Adal if so many were willing to get rid of her, but it didn’t matter either way, he supposed. His attention shifted back to Gabriel, “Right,” he motioned to one of his guards, who stepped forward with a bag.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla was silent as the group walked to the building, too consumed with worry for Esmeralda and going over her secret plan to make any small talk. Once they got to the meeting's location, Carla's hands curled into fists at the sight of Hercine. Anger flared up inside of her, but she forced herself to calm down. Forcing herself to relax, she remained silent. It took all of the willpower that the vampiress possessed not to just lunge at Hercine and stab the vampire right then and there.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>'Be patient.'</i> She told herself. <i>'Giving yourself away wouldn't do any good. You don't want to make things worse for yourself.'</i><br>
<br>
<i><br>
</i><br>
<br>
<br>
Arriving at the meeting's location, Merlin's eyes wandered around the building. He studied Hercine and the other vampires closely. At Hercine's words, Merlin huffed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"She is not one of us." He stated simply. When Gabriel pushed Evaline forward, Merlin watched tensely. As the dhampir struggled against the chains, his eyes narrowed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Watch it, leech." He warned, sounding harsh, just like he needed to.<br>
<br>
<br>
When Hercine's focused his gaze on her, Carla tensed, not moving or saying anything. She hoped more than anything that the vampire wouldn't recognize her. The rebels finding out that she had lied about knowing Hercine was inevitable. However, it would be better for Carla's secret plan if this happened after she already had more control over the situation. After all, if somebody tried to kill her for lying, things would end up being bloodier than they had to be.<br>
<br>
<br>
When Hercine didn't appear to recognize her, Carla let out a soft sigh of relief. The vampire just looked curious. That made sense. After all, she was a vampire among the company of human rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, this is quite the predicament you've found yourself in." Carla said, directing her words at Evaline. However, her words were directed at Hercine. He had said those exact words to her one hundred years ago. "I guess I might see you in another life, if I'm unlucky." These words were filled with disgust.</div>

<br>
<br>
Bloodlust had a way of dementing one’s mind, though Evaline fought for sanity tooth and nail, reminding herself with every harsh word that it was only an act, rather than a justification to attack. Not that she could. <i>‘Maybe.’</i> She straightened out her posture as Hercine advanced and Carla then spoke.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hercine froze prematurely, realizing why the vampire was of particular interest to him. He had a good memory, and it all clicked into place. “Carla?” A wicked grin came to his lips as he turned his gaze back to her, “Wait,” he stayed his hand for his guard, “We’ll double our offer for her.” Hercine said, wondering if they’d give her up as easily as they gave up the dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Triple,” Merlin said immediately. “She’s worth twice what a dhampir is.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Fi—” the chains shattered, first the center one, pulled apart by a stretch, and then the ones at the dhampir’s hands. Hercine had the sense to move out of the way when the dhampir lunged at him, and he dared to shout, “They’re the ones that chained you up.” Since he could see she was starved. If he could redirect her attention, perhaps it would be enough.<br>
<br>
<br>
Indeed, Evaline's gaze shifted to her supposed allies.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hercine shot a glare at the humans, “You thought that would hold?” He sounded a bit outraged, though he supposed humans wouldn’t know any better.<br>
<br>
<br>
Honestly, he had thought it would, until it broke.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">When Hercine recognized her, Carla felt a knot in the pit of her stomach. <i>'Wonderful.'</i> she thought sarcastically. "Yeah, it's me." She said through gritted teeth. She wanted to stab him, if for no other reason than to make him stop grinning. "I would say that it's nice to see you again, but it's really not." The vampiress narrowed her eyes when Hercine offered the rebels more money in exchange for her. She was hardly surprised.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Oh, I don't think so." She glared. "I would rather die than be anywhere near you." She shot Gabriel a dirty look.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin narrowed his eyes at the vampires, immediately more wary of Carla. She had lied about knowing Hercine.  Of course, she seemed to hate him, so chances were slim that she had lied to protect the vampire. Unless she was pretending. Merlin was about to say something when he heard the chains holding Evaline break.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>'Son of a bitch.'</i><br>
<br>
<br>
Turning quickly to face the dhampir, he drew his blade as Evaline stopped mid-lunge at Hercine, and looked over at the humans. She was obviously more starved than Merlin previously thought.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Oh, dear." Carla said softly, watching Evaline with a concerned frown. Merlin tensed, narrowing his eyes.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Don't do anything stupid." He warned. If it really came to it, he would kill her. Although that might mess things up with their fake deal with Hercine.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">There was sanity clawing at the back of Evaline’s mind, but there was hunger and irrational anger there as her wrists still felt the way the metal had chilled her. <i>‘Seconds. This will take seconds.’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin spoke his warning as Evaline felt the fangs extend, cutting into her bottom lip as she kept them hidden behind. <i>‘Come on!’</i> She growled at herself, though Gabriel flinched at the sound. When she lunged at Gabriel, Hercine let out one, sharp laugh.<br>
<br>
<br>
It died in his throat when Gabriel ducked, and Evaline tore the sword from the sheathe on his back. She whipped right around and sprinted at one of Hercine’s men, taking the head clean from his shoulders before he knew what to do.<br>
<br>
<br>
The others wouldn’t be caught off guard so easily, and there was the sound of a gunshot from somewhere in the trees, but Evaline didn’t see where it was aimed. Her bloodlust had channeled itself into wrath, something far more manageable when directed appropriately. Besides that, the vampire blood that spilled was nauseating, weakening her own hunger with its sickening scent.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel knew the fight had begun when he heard the gunshot go off. It didn’t strike him, so he moved back and drew the slender blade he kept from its place on his back, hidden behind the jacket he usually wore. He hadn’t wanted to appear armed.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin watched the fight unfold, raising his sword in a defensive stance. When Evaline lunged at Gabriel, Merlin took a few quick steps forward, ready to kill the dhampir if he needed to. However, when Evaline did not harm Gabriel, but grab a sword, Merlin didn't move. He watched the dhampir, glancing around at the others every couple of seconds, waiting to see what she was going to do.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Evaline, the humans are not your enemy." The leader insisted. And then he watched Evaline behead one of the vampires. At least that hadn't been somebody on her side.<br>
<br>
<br>
As the sound of gunfire could be heard and Evaline beheaded the vampire, Carla took a few quick steps back. Her eyes widened slightly, glancing at the now headless corpse of the vampire guard. She pulled her sword out of it's sheathe. She looked around the building quickly. There was nobody here was a visible gun.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>'Please be Esmeralda, please be Esmeralda.' </i><br>
<br>
<br>
"Sorry I'm late!" Carla's shoulders slumped with relief at the sound of her friend's voice. Esmeralda had missed whoever she had been aiming for, as nobody seemed to be suffering from a bullet wound. Not yet, anyway. The vampiress turned slightly, watching Esmeralda enter the building, gun in hand, but freeze at the sight of Hercine and his remaining guards. And then the human looked over at Evaline, and her eyes widened.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hey!" Carla called out, snapping Esmeralda back into thinking clearly. "Give me a gun." Esmeralda darted over to Carla, pulling a second gun out of the waistband of her pants. She gave it to Carla, who immediately turned and shot the hand gun. This would be quicker than using her sword. She knew it wouldn't kill the vampire, but it would make the guard quite harmless for the time being.<br>
<br>
<br>
The bullet sailed through the air before arriving at it's final destination.. which was between one of Hercine's vampire's eyes. She watched the vampire fall backwards with a groan, before slowly looking over to Hercine. Esmeralda stood by her, now silent, ready to shoot if anyone came at her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You son of a bitch." Carla growled at Hercine, her eyes narrowing. For the most part, Carla wasn't paying much attention to Evaline. She was more consumed with her rage and hatred directed at Hercine.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The blade centered Evaline in more ways than one. Unarmed, she felt more like an animal, but with a sword, she was able to act disciplined. It was a grounding tool, and a rather effective one. Though she was riding the high of blood lust as she stepped back from an arrow fired at her from the trees, she was aware.<br>
<br>
<br>
That vampire in the tree was the next to fall when Evaline used the long blade like a missile and skewered the vampire. It fell back, blade through its heart. It wasn’t thick enough to kill the vampire, but it was enough to put it down. Evaline finished the job when she retrieved her blade. Off with another head.<br>
<br>
<br>
The third head rolled as Gabriel finished the job that Carla had starting, darting forward to cut the head off the vampire, before he had to dive away as one of Hercine’s guards went swinging at him. He rolled into a standing position again, and paled as he saw that was not a standard sword. That was a greatsword, and his blade was going to be useless if he tried to guard or fight against that thing.<br>
<br>
<br>
Not to mention, Gabriel didn’t exactly have the speed of a vampire. By the time he had risen to his feet, the guard closed what distance he gained and swung again.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline wasn’t paying attention to that.<br>
<br>
<br>
When Carla cursed at Hercine, his second remaining guard backed up, and fled. Hercine might have made a smart comment to Carla were it not for that. Instead, he turned to shout at the guard’s back, “Get back here you cowar—” and he cut himself off when he saw the dhampir. Fortunately for him, he wasn’t unskilled in fighting. Gauntlets were a constant part of his attire since they served as part of his weapons. The nails on each were sharpened like blades, and they could stop blades. He caught the sword in his hands before it could harm him.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin lunged at the vampire near Gabriel. He knew that his blade wouldn't do anything against the vampire's. He also knew that he wasn't fast enough to behead the vampire before he struck Gabriel. A killing blow took a little longer than one intended to just slow the vampire down. So Merlin changed his position, stepping to the side of the vampire, and swung his blade near the vampire's hand, the one holding the sword.<br>
<br>
<br>
With a sickening noise, Merlin's blade ran through the vampire's wrist, severing it from the arm. The greatsword clattered to the floor. So did the vampire's hand.<br>
<br>
<br>
Another vampire ran into the building, straight at Esmeralda. The blonde shot, hitting the vampire in the chest but not killing it. Carla finished that one off, momentarily ignoring Hercine and swiftly beheading the vampire. It's head thumped to the floor in front of Esmeralda, who scowled. The human was quite squeamish. Carla found that hilarious, considering that Esmeralda had killed many vampires. Mostly in self defense, but still. Carla imagined that her friend was probably thinking something alone the lines of <i>'This is why I like to stay home.'</i><br>
<br>
<br>
"See, that one was smarter than the others." Carla commented, watching the guard run away with a slightly amused smirk, despite the fact that they were in the middle of a fight. She watched Hercine catch Evaline's blade. Raising the gun, Carla shot. She hit Hercine in the shoulder. The bullet went through.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm going to destroy you, you know." She called out. Maybe if she distracted Hercine, Evaline could strike him. Carla moved forward towards the vampire and the dhampir, letting the gun fall to the floor and raising her sword.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel was pleased that he’d been saved, and the relief showed on his face. With the vampire disarmed, Gabriel stepped off to the side and thrust his blade forward. The vampire, however, caught it in his hand. He didn’t seem to care about the blood that started to spill as he kicked Gabriel far from him.<br>
<br>
<br>
He tossed the blade aside and rounded on Merlin. He only had one hand, but it wasn’t a great concern right then when his life was in danger. He wasn’t a coward, either. He lunged at Merlin with the intent to tackle the rebel and open his throat with his teeth, which had the tale-tell glisten of venom on them.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hercine had pulled Evaline forward with the intent to push those sharp nails of his gauntlet into her chest and rip her heart out, but the shot from behind distracted him. The epaulette took the entirety of the damage, but the force of it was enough for him to take a quick look back.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline ripped her sword from his grasp in that instant and he redirected his attention. A blade was more of a concern than a gun. He didn’t allow Evaline time to get her bearings. He rushed forward and took a swipe at her weapon arm, raking the claws along the flesh of her upper arm and drawing forth blood. He caught the glimmer of a second blade and noticed too late to spare himself from all the damage that Carla had a weapon.<br>
<br>
<br>
Even so, he did attempt to move out of the way, disengaging from Evaline.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin watched as the vampire caught Gabriel's blade and then kicked the rebel aside, scowling. He tried to determine when he could get in there and kill the vampire without getting himself killed. When the vampire turned towards him, the leader was momentarily distracted by the obvious venom on the vampire's fangs. The knot in his stomach twisted around, and when he struck, he missed.<br>
<br>
<br>
Well, he didn't technically miss. But he didn't kill the vampire either. The blade went into the vampire's neck at an awkward angel, going all the way through rather than severing the head from the neck. Merlin's eyes widened, and he jerked his hand in an effort to pull the blade out of the vampire's neck. After a sickeningly long second, the blade came free, and Merlin was able to swing again and kill the vampire.<br>
<br>
<br>
Esmeralda turned around just in time to watch Merlin killed the vampire. She paled slightly, willing herself to focus. <i>'Come on, don't get yourself killed.'</i> She thought, following after Carla, half backwards, watching for anyone approaching.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla came up to Hercine and stabbed at him, jabbing him in the back with her blade. She glanced at Evaline. After making sure that dhampir wasn't dead or dying, she returned her attention to Hercine.<br>
<br>
<br>
"This meeting was a trap, by the way." She said, spinning him around to face her. Determining that the claws on his gauntlets were her biggest problem at the moment, she stabbed at his hands.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gabriel managed to pull himself up, and saw Hircine grab the sword that had just punctured his back. The metal-covered fingers laced around it after Carla had stabbed at his hand, and he looked bemused by her apparent target. “Too bad for all of you,” was his response to Carla’s words, not intending to show his fear.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hercine tried to pull the sword out of Carla’s hand, moving his other hand to grab hold of the blade.<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course, Evaline took advantage of this. With Hercine’s hands occupied, she drew herself together and swung again at him. This time, the swing was true. The speed and force behind the strike removed his head. Evaline turned her blade downward immediately after, and plunged it into the ground. It went several inches into the dirt so that she could rest on her knees, and she placed her forehead against the hilt.<br>
<br>
<br>
The scent of vampire blood helped negate the thirst, but now that the battle was over, she knew sanity and survival instincts would return. She shut her eyes, and forced her body to relax.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel let out a breath of relief, “That was all, right?” He asked aloud. He almost laughed, happy with the success. His mistrust of the two women faded a bit under the realization that they had both helped, and ended the lives of other vampires there. He didn’t think they would have taken the game this far if they were just toying with the rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
No, the two of them had to be on the side of the rebels.<br>
<br>
<br>
“One escaped,” Evaline pointed out. She wasn’t sure it mattered, right then.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin let out a long sigh as the battle ended, looking over at Hercine's beheaded corpse. This had gone well, considering that Hercine was now dead. He didn't say anything for a moment, catching his breath, looking over at Gabriel as he spoke.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Let's hope so." Merlin commented. He looked over at Evaline as she pointed out that one of the vampires had escaped. He had noticed that as well. He frowned slightly. "I guess if the one that escaped causes anything, we'll have to deal with it."<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla's eyes widened slightly as she watched Evaline kill Hercine. She hadn't had time to react to the vampire trying to grab her blade before Evaline had killed him. She didn't move for a long moment, staring down at the corpse of Hercine. She ignored everyone else, finally looking over at Evaline when she mentioned the escaped vampire. Carla shrugged.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Merlin is right, I guess." She said absentmindedly. Esmeralda wandered over to Carla, obviously very relieved that the fighting was over. For now, anyway. Esmeralda watched the dhampir. Having never actually met a dhampir in person before she was a bit curious.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Thanks for saving Carla, by the way." Esmeralda said to Evaline. "I appreciate it."<br>
<br>
<br>
 Merlin frowned at the vampiress. "Hercine recognized you." He said, narrowing her eyes slightly. "But you said that you didn't know him." he pointed out. Carla turned slightly to look at the rebel leader.<br>
<br>
<br>
"And?" She asked with a shrug. "Who I know, or.. knew," she glanced down at the corpse. "is personal. And in this case, it really didn't matter if I knew Hercine."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Evaline gave a curt nod when she heard Esmeralda’s words of gratitude, but did not respond to them verbally. The cool metal was a comfort in the environment where an argument was brewing. She shut her eyes as the accusations flew.<br>
<br>
<br>
“It might have been—”<br>
<br>
<br>
“You saw they hated each other,” Evaline snapped, “If nothing else that should show that Carla is not with the vampires who behave like Hercine, and those sorts are your enemies. Drop it.” Evaline pushed herself back up to her feet, brushed the silver hair back behind one ear. “Can I safely assume you’re not going to recapture Carla?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline wanted to leave. She needed to leave. This hunger was the reason she hated to stay in groups of humans. She had only come to this group to see Carla released. If that was going to be done, then she could leave.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Er…Yeah. Yeah, I don’t think we plan to keep her hostage,” Gabriel shot a glance to Merlin, hoping he wasn’t overstepping his bounds in saying as much.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla looked over at Evaline as the dhampir defended her. "Thank you!" She said, pausing when Evaline mentioned her being recaptured. The vampiress paused, and Esmeralda frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin let out a sigh. Okay, so Carla probably wasn't on the side of vampires like Hercine. He paused thoughtfully when recapturing Carla was brought up. He looked over at Gabriel, finally nodding. "I see no reason to recapture her." he said. Carla didn't comment. The vampiress glanced around the building. The vampire officials should be here any minute. Which meant that it was time for Esmeralda to leave.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Es, get out of here." Carla said, turning and facing her friend. The blonde didn't protest. She knew that plan, and it was already agreed upon that Esmeralda would not be involved any more than she had been.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Try not to die." She said, taking off. Merlin watched her go, a confused expression gracing his features.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why did you tell her to leave?" He asked, turning and facing Carla. The fight was over. Or so he thought. Carla didn't have time to answer before more vampires entered the building. There were over a dozen of them. They were not Hercine's people.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If you want to live, drop the weapons." One of the vampires called out. Carla quickly dropped her sword and held up both of her hands in a sign of surrender. Merlin glanced around, unsure and angry about what was going on. What had Carla done?<br>
<br>
<br>
"Do what they say." Carla murmured, looking at the others. Merlin didn't move. "Do what they say!" She repeated, raising her voice. Merlin saw the guns being aimed at the group. He slowly lowered his blade and dropped it on the ground. Him getting himself shot wouldn't do any good. Although he hated surrounded, there was a chance that he would escape this if he cooperated. His people couldn't do anything with a dead leader. A shamed one, however, would still serve his purpose.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Who are you?" The vampire asked, looking between the group. His eyes landed on the dead vampires. "Who are you?!" He repeated again, too shocked at the sight of Lord Hercine's body to stutter out anything else.<br>
<br>
<br>
"My name is Carla Davenport." Carla said, glancing over at Evaline. At the moment, the dhampir's identity was a concern. "This is Alana Montgomery." The vampiress continued, before Evaline had time to say anything.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Evaline planned to leave when Merlin admitted that Carla wouldn’t be recaptured. She moved to holster her sword, though kept her hand on the hilt. She wasn’t sure how she was going to go about hunting, but she knew she needed to get far away from this group. Hercine’s manor seemed like the place to run to, for there it was probable there was at least some human servant. Evaline hoped she’d be able to avoid ripping their throat out.<br>
<br>
<br>
As she started to walk to leave the clearing, though, Es ran. The confusion was palpable, as was the rising tension.<br>
<br>
<br>
As Esmeralda cleared the area, the authorities showed up.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline didn’t even bother to try hiding her fangs. They were bared in an instant and she crouched into an offensive stance. Orders to disarm were given, but Evaline didn’t plan to. She <i>knew</i> what would happen to her. Carla seemed completely aware of what was happening, and it made Evaline reconsider the trust she’d just earlier put in her.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel also reconsidered it. “What the hell is this, Carla?!” He demanded, but threw down his weapons. He didn’t want to get shot, not now. Of course, he also didn’t want to go with the authorities. They’d find his brand, they’d figure out he was an escaped slave, and he’d be executed.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was his fear for the others that caused him to disarm. Merlin didn’t have to die. He wasn’t marked. He might still live. Gabriel just had to make sure not to draw attention to himself, and get the vampires firing.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla answered and introduced Evaline and herself—though for Evaline she used a different name. Gabriel observed the look that Evaline shot towards Carla, and he couldn’t quite make it out. It was too cold to be any anger he understood, but there was also a subtle appreciation.<br>
<br>
<br>
Then, the dhampir drew that sword and moved to strike. “Ev—Lana!” Gabriel shouted.<br>
<br>
<br>
There was a single shot from one of the authorities, and it made its mark in Evaline’s leg. Weakened already by hunger, exertion, and blood loss, Evaline toppled forward and let the sword fall from her grip. She didn’t fight to get up again. <i>‘You don’t understand.’</i> She wanted to tell Carla for her lie. <i>‘They wanted me dead just because….’</i> Or it had seemed that way, once upon a time.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel was quick to straighten his back, and he spoke as a gun pointed itself down at the dhampir. "I'm Gabriel," he introduced, and motioned, "This is Merlin." They had asked who they were. Well, that's who they were.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla didn't even look at Gabriel when the rebel asked her what was going on. There was no good way to answer him, not with the vampire authorities surrounding them. Carla spun around to face Evaline as the dhampir moved to strike out at the authorities, and then was shot. Carla winced.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Alana!" She called out. Evaline dying wasn't a part of her plan. Luckily, the shot wouldn't be fatal. Although the state that the dhampir was in just got a lot worse. Merlin moved forward slightly, before freezing. He watched Evaline fall to the ground and scowled. He couldn't get himself shot. He had to be smart about this. When Gabriel introduced them, Merlin didn't say anything. He looked at the authorities, trying to determine if they were planning on executing the entire group right then and there.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay..who killed Lord Hercine?" The vampire asked, looking among the rebels and the dhampir. He didn't look at Carla. She was a vampire, so why would he suspect her?<br>
<br>
<br>
"I did." Carla said, barely glancing at the gun that was now aimed right at her. "Look, before you shoot me, please let me explain." She said, staring at the vampire intently. She took the blame for Hercine's death because it would be easier to convince the authorities that she was telling the truth, even though she wasn't, if she had done something as drastic as to kill another vampire. Evaline was a dhampir. These vampires might be biased against her because of this. And Evaline had already tried to fight them. The authorities probably didn't need another reason to kill the dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked at Carla, his eyes narrowing. He wasn't entirely sure why she confessed to killing Hercine. Carla hadn't killed Hercine. Even if she was trying to protect Evaline, she could have just said that one of the rebels did. Merlin was quite confused, but he didn't say anything. He didn't want to make matters worse than they already were.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Why the hell would you kill him?" The vampire asked, looking bewildered and angry.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hercine was not the vampire that you think he was." Carla said. She didn't look even a little afraid, about the authorities or the gun aimed at her chest. She couldn't let herself get freaked out in these sorts of situations. "He was a traitor.. he pitied humans." She said, her voice filled with complete disgust. The other vampires looked confused.<br>

"Wait a minute.. weren't you exiled?" He asked, narrowing his eyes at Carla, who just nodded. "I thought I recognized you! Why should we believe anything that you say?"<br>
<br>
<br>
"I was exiled because I suspected that Hercine was on the side of the humans. I voiced these suspicions. There were vampires who knew that I suspected Hercine." She lied. "And before you ask, Hercine didn't just kill me because it would look awfully suspicious if I died right after accusing him of being on the humans's side, wouldn't it?"</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Evaline hated everyone present, and those absent. Her eyes remained open, but they may as well have been closed. She stared forward, unseeing, and listened without reacting. Carla took responsibility for Hercine, and Evaline took in a breath to remind herself of that poisonous scent. <i>‘Not true.’</i> Carla was trying to cover for them. Evaline knew that when a false name was used, but she didn’t trust that it would do much good.<br>
<br>
<br>
Her fangs dug into her own lip and it bled. It was a focus point, though, something to keep Evaline from slipping too far into her thoughts, or from losing them. That was still the greater risk. Her fingers twitched to reach out for her sword, but she resisted.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel knew his expression showed immediate confusion when Carla confessed, but then it was masked. He didn’t know what game Carla was playing at, not even when she claimed that Hercine pitied humans. <i>‘What role do we play? Is she selling us out?!’</i> In the strangest way. Were they working with Hercine in this story that Carla was weaving, then?<br>
<br>
<br>
He was tempted to speak up, but kept himself quiet. He couldn’t hold the poker face, but perhaps his concerned look towards Hercine would be read according to Carla’s lie. Of course, he also cast those wide eyes to Evaline, to Merlin, to Carla, and to the vampires around, clearly at a loss for what to do. He wanted to run, and that urge grew with each second, but he kept himself stilled. <i>‘Come on now. She might be trying to save us all….’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
He had to keep faith.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Merlin looked over at Gabriel, and then back to the vampires. He didn't know what to do, so he didn't do anything. He listened to Carla and the vampires in silence, his hands balling into tight fists.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Prove it." The vampire said. Carla didn't even pause. She had expected the vampire to ask her to prove what she was claiming.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Peter Troy." She said simply. "Killed twenty years ago by human rebels. Now, I knew Peter. Quite well, actually. He was under Hercine's protection. So, please tell me how was it that he was found and killed?" She said. Of course, in reality, she had killed Peter. Esmeralda's father had helped her with that. "Not to mention the various situations that Hercine could have dealt with had he wanted to."<br>
<br>
<br>
"What situations?" Based on the uneasiness in the vampire's voice, and the way he kept glancing at Hercine's body, he was starting to believe Carla. And she knew it.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, for one thing, them." The vampiress said, gesturing towards Merlin and Gabriel. Merlin tensed, staring at Carla with a hardened expression. For all he knew, Carla was trying to get them all killed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"They've been here for weeks." Carla continued. "And Hercine didn't have them killed, or captured, or anything? Unbelievable. Hercine has been giving them information on other vampires. <i>Betraying</i> other vampires." She said, looking angry.<br>
<br>
<br>
"And how do you know this?" The vampire asked, folding his arms across his chest.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I've been stalking them. That's how I knew where he would be." Carla said, nodding towards Hercine's body. "And then there's the matter of Hercine's 'escaped' slaves." She said. <i>'Thank you, Esmeralda.' </i>She thought. She knew that Esmeralda helping those slaves escape would work out in Carla's favor some day. "A dozen in the last year alone. That's almost impossible. Unless, of course, there's someone freeing them. And since Hercine owned them all..." Carla gave the vampire a knowing look. "Who else could have helped them? If it was anyone else besides Hercine, wouldn't he have done something about it?"<br>
<br>
<br>
The vampire shifted his weight from foot to foot. His faith in Hercine was crumbling. Merlin watched him closely, desperately hoping that the vampire wouldn't give the order for them all to be killed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Where does the dhampir fit into all of this?" The vampire asked. Carla glanced over at Evaline, looking sympathetic.<br>
<br>
<br>
"The rebels were giving her to Hercine." She said softly. "As a thank you." Merlin stared at the others. How long had Carla been planning this? What the hell was her endgame here? He wondered with a frown.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla spoke with knowledge and authority. It made Gabriel anxious and all the more worried. If he didn’t know better, he would have believed her. Of course, he did know better—he’d never worked with Hercine in his life. How she managed to come up with this story, and all these details, was making his head spin.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel tried to think back to any other vampires his group had killed in this area, that would line up with the idea of Hercine tipping them off. He wasn’t sure why, but he thought it might be good to have that information just in case. <i>‘So they have more reason to kill you?’</i> He wasn’t sure. He was still far too hopeful that Carla had something planned.<br>
<br>
<br>
He glanced uneasily over his shoulder, wondering if anyone did bear the mark of Hercine’s slaves. He hadn’t gotten a chance to really look at it, when he was in the man’s presence. Of course, no other rebel came out to present themselves. <i>‘Are any of you nearby?’</i> Doubtful. They were further out to ensure Hercine didn’t have the forces to ambush the rest of them. <i>‘Please stay away.’</i> Gabriel quietly hoped they wouldn’t get suspicious and venture closer to the scene.<br>
<br>
<br>
When the dhampir was again given the ‘task’ of gift, Evaline couldn’t help the laugh, however quiet it was. The sound caused some anxiety that was easily detected, since she had been quiet this entire time. Unmoving. She still resisted the urge to move, since she knew it would be for her sword, even if her intent was to just roll off her side.<br>
<br>
<br>
Her shoulder did not agree with the hard ground. “There are chains here somewhere,” she muttered, uncertain if the vampires would even make out the words. She supposed that’d be evidence enough that she was being given over. “C’est la vie….”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel’s eyes narrowed at the strange phrase he’d never heard before.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"Yes! See, the chains.." Carla gestured in the direction of Evaline and the broken chains. She glanced down at the dhampir, having no idea what she had just said, but decided that now wouldn't be the best time to ask.<br>
<br>
<br>
"And yet, your wrists are the injured ones." The vampire pointed out dryly. Carla glanced down at her hands, and Merlin held his breath. He was desperately hoping that none of his people would come any closer to the building than he had told them to. If the vampires saw them, it would all be over.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Oh, these wounds are unrelated." Carla said quickly. There was a long pause. The vampire looked over at Evaline, suspious. Carla let out a sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I have another example of Hercine's betrayal of his fellow vampires." She said quickly. "Diana Morris." Her stomach twisted up in knots. "Killed one hundred years ago for planning an uprising. Hercine said that she was killed. But did anybody actually see the girl's body?" Carla asked. Of course, she had seen Diana's body. She had been the only one. "For all you know, Hercine let her go."<br>
<br>
<br>
"Look, you have to believe me." Carla said, staring at the vampire. "I am not the kind of person that kills another vampire!" She said. <i>'Lies.'</i> She thought, a bit amused by her own lies. "I mean, I know I killed my sire but that bastard had it coming." The vampire frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"If you are telling the truth.." He paused. Carla held her breath. "Jesus." the vampire murmured, pushing his hand through his hair. "Lord Hercine a traitor.."<br>
<br>
<br>
"It was shocking to me too." Carla said softly. <i>'He's believing me!"</i> She thought, pleased with herself.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Well, until I can prove you wrong.." the vampire turned towards his comrades. "Arrest the humans. You, get the dhampir." He said, nodding to another vampire.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'll help her." Carla offered. The vampire just waved her on. Merlin took a step back, defensive. He didn't want to be arrested. But what other choice did he have? He couldn't just run, and if he tried to protest or defend himself, he would be killed. So he stood still as a vampire approached him and tied his hands behind his back. Merlin looked over at Gabriel, willing the other rebel to cooperate as well.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla went over to Evaline, crouching down in front of her. "Let me help you up." She said, leaning forward slightly. "Just play along for now." She said in a hushed whisper.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><i>‘Ok. Un prison. Oui. Il sonne bien.’</i> Evaline hardly noticed the shift of her thought’s language. She really didn’t want to get up. She knew that putting any weight on her leg was going to hurt. She also imagined that standing couldn’t be good for the blood that was rushing through her body.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla volunteered to help her, and Evaline let out another breath. Carla came close and knelt besides her, and Evaline let her eyes drift up. She understood what was said, though it clearly took a few moments for it to register. Evaline sat up on her own, but then held out an arm. She was going to need help standing, or else she was going to fall as soon as the pain shot through her leg.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline would accept the help up, at least.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel, meanwhile, swallowed hard when he understood what was going to happen. Had the dhampir and vampire planned this from the start? <i>‘No, the dhampir reacted badly.’</i> And got shot for it. She had been just as surprised as him.<br>
<br>
<br>
Perhaps Carla was just saving Evaline because the dhampir had stood up for her? A debt to be repaid? He looked to Merlin, desperate and anxious energy in his gaze, but he didn’t step back. He was too afraid to really move much, despite the energy flowing through his veins. Fight or flight. He could do neither.<br>
<br>
<br>
He stamped his foot hard on the ground, but then disarmed himself completely. “Horse shit,” he cursed and had his hands bound behind his back like Merlin.<br>
<br>
<br>
They would be led out of the building, and Gabriel imagined, they would be led right into cells where their fates would be decided. <i>‘Hopefully the group can go on without us.’</i> He wasn’t sure who would rise up in the ranks when he and Merlin both were gone. There wasn’t exactly a 3rd in command.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla took Evaline by her arm, gently helping the dhampir to her feet. Looking at Evaline, Carla frowned slightly. The dhampir was in bad shape. She seemed barely responsive. This wouldn't do. Carla felt bad for her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Come on, love." She said gently. "Don't go fainting on me or anything."<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin was lead forward by a vampire prodding him in the back with a gun. The rebel scowled. He couldn't think of a way out of this. He should have just killed the vampire when he had the chance, damn it. Because now he was taken captive by vampires, being lead to God knows where to a probable death. If Carla was dead, this probably wouldn't be happening.<br>
<br>
<br>
Was was going to happen to his people? He had never officially named somebody to take his place if something happened to him. When his parents had died and left the group leaderless, the choice had been obvious. But Merlin had never decided on a plan B leader.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin had considered Gabriel. Merlin had always thought that Gabriel was smart enough to lead. Sadly, it looked like they were both heading off towards death. <i>'Who would they all follow? Could they even decide on somebody?'</i> He wondered. His eyes narrowed as he stared at the ground in front of him. Was this how his parents had felt? Knowing they were probably going to die and their main worry being the others in their group?<br>
<br>
<br>
Shaking his head slightly to clear it, Merlin just tried to focus on his present problems. If there was one thing that he couldn't do, it was to give up. He couldn't just wait for death. There must be a way out of this. And if there wasn't, then he would go down fighting.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Come on." The vampire leader said, nodding towards the door. His people surrounded the rebels. A few of them stayed near Carla and Evaline. Carla figured that the vampire leader didn't think a wounded and starving dhampir and a vampiress who appeared to be on their side was much of a threat.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Fainting was a real concern, Evaline realized. She’d prefer it to the other options her mind had humored. “Je ne vais pas tomber dans les pommes,” she understood that Carla was speaking English to her, but she wasn’t thinking fast enough to speak English.<br>
<br>
<br>
She let some of her weight fall on Carla, and let herself be led forward, holding on to consciousness as best she could and doing her utmost to ignore the scents of the humans behind. It was easier, among this many vampires. However, when they got within the city, someone started to pull her away from Carla.<br>
<br>
<br>
There was no strength to resist, but she shot a bewildered look to them, “Quel…?” Arms were pulled behind her back. There was no malice to it, no harshness.<br>
<br>
<br>
“We’re going to need to speak with you alone,” the one vampire said to Carla, “We’ll put her with the others.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Non, non, je ne—” a pull and she shut up, bowed her head, and let herself be brought along.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel and Merlin had been turned in another direction to start with, and now Evaline was brought with them to the cells, and unfortunately, locked in the same cell as them. A panic rose up in her as her steps staggered and she almost fell back onto the cot. She adjusted her weight, and held her breath, before moving to occupy a corner.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Hey, you can’t leave us in here with her!” Gabriel shouted down the hall, but he went ignored. “She’s not—damn it,” he cursed, banging his fist against the bar before letting his head rest against the bar. Well, if the vampires intended to kill them, they might very well get their wish. “Damn her,” it was Carla he cursed now.<br>
<br>
<br>
In a cell, his faith evaporated.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">As she was separated from Evaline, Carla resisted the urge to scowl. In her current state, Evaline could say anything that could lead the vampires to believe Carla was lying and not even realize that was what she was doing. Granted, she might be speaking in French, but there was no guaranty that Evaline was the only person around here who spoke the language.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla watched Evaline be taken away in silence. She had to admit that she was a bit worried about the dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Right." She said, looking to the vampire who had spoken with her. Putting Evaline in with the human rebels could end badly, but Carla couldn't say anything. She was lead down a couple of hallways and left in an office like room. She stood there, not moving. She heard the door lock. She let out a long sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
Outside in the hall, Samuel stood by the door. He turned to one of the vampires standing guard. "Go get Gaius. Tell him what has happened." He instructed, watching as the vampire nodded and went off.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin didn't say anything as he and Gabriel were led to the cell and locked in. He leaned against the wall, not moving, until he straightened as he watched Evaline be brought into the cell. He was weaponless, and she was a starving dhampir. She was outnumered, but still a concern.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Should have just killed the damn vampire.." He murmured, letting out a sigh. He watched Evaline with a frown.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gaius was not in any posh office. Whenever it was night, he was about as far away from his home and his office as he could get, unless it was absolutely necessary. Unfortunately, most of the vampires knew this about him, and so he was tracked down to a garden, where he was discussing botany with another individual.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Gaius,” and Gaius sighed. He’d long given up on enforcing the Roman way of things, so that his first name wouldn’t be used except by close friends. No one cared any longer. He turned.<br>
<br>
<br>
“What is it?” He asked the one who approached.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Samuel has sent for you,” he glanced at Gaius’s companion, “I can explain on the way,” he noted, apparently not impressed with the company Gaius was keeping. Gaius shrugged his shoulders, bid farewell to his companion, and then walked alongside the guard. The explanation began, “Lord Hercine is dead,” and the brown eyes of Gaius widened.<br>
<br>
<br>
“By who?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“A vampiress known as Carla Davenport has claimed to be the author of his demise, and has further claimed that he was working with rebels. Two of them are in custody right now, as is a dhampir they were handing over to Hercine, named Alana Montgomery.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gaius’s frown deepened. “And the rebels?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“A Gabriel and a Merlin.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gaius was certain he knew the name Merlin. He nodded. “I see. And Samuel wants me for…?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Not certain.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Another sigh escaped Gaius, “Very well,” he would see to it. The guard would lead him to Samuel.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
The corner Evaline chose was also near the bars. Metal centered her, but she knew it wouldn’t last. She snaked one arm around the bar nearby to try and anchor herself there, and she leaned against it, pressed her cheek to the metal.<br>
<br>
<br>
They were all cursing Carla. “Elle est avec nous.” Why did she talk? Talking meant breathing, and from the dumbfounded look Gabriel gave her, she knew he didn’t understand. Why couldn’t she get her tongue to obey and speak English?<br>
<br>
<br>
“What are you even speaking?” Gabriel asked her. Evaline just shut her eyes and tried to focus on the metal. Her hand tightened around the cold as she had to take in another breath simply to live. The chill that went through her was not from that cold, though.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Vous devriez me tuer.” Evaline muttered, and didn’t close her lips again completely. She couldn’t, without her own fangs now digging into her lip. They wouldn’t be so easily retracted, though it gave her something to focus on, and she tried. She tried.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel noticed the glint, and he backed up to the far corner. “I don’t know what she’s saying,” as if Merlin would. It frightened him that he didn’t understand the words, though he completely understood the body language. He wasn’t sure if it matched. The tone indicated near apathy, but that might be because it was deadened by physical needs.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">When Samuel saw Gaius approaching, he straighten, glancing towards the locked door for a second before facing the other vampires. "I assume you told him what was going on?" He said, directing his words at the messenger. Not even waiting for the vampire to answer, Samuel got straight to the point.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I need you to help me figure out if she's lying and then what to do with her. And the others." he said, nodding towards the door. "The vampiress who killed Lord Hercine... claimed he was a human sympathizer." He scowled. "She could be lying, obviously, but seeing as she was quite convincing I let her live. For now anyway." He grumbled. He turned back towards the door and unlocked it. Pushing it open, he stepping inside motioning for Gaius to follow him.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hearing the door unlock, Carla turned around. She shifted her weight from one foot to the other. She had no idea what was going to happen now, seeing as at this point in time things were pretty much out of her hands. If she couldn't convince all of the other vampires that she spoke the truth, it would all be over for her. Her stomach knotted up a bit, and she let out a long sigh to calm down.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hello." She said slowly, noticing that Samuel was not alone. She didn't know exactly who the other vampire was, although she vaguely recognized him from her time spent in Hercine's empire.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
"I don't know what she's saying either." Merlin grumbled. He pushed his hand through his hair, scowling. He wasn't really all that angry at Evaline for speaking another language, or Gabriel for not understanding it. He was angry that he was in a cage, captured by vampires. But he was even a little more frustrated with himself for being such a fool to be tricked by a vampire. How had he been so stupid? He really should have just killed Carla and been done with her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"We need to get out of here." he said quietly. Of course, he knew that he may very well die here, but he had to at least <i>try</i> to get free. His people needed a leader. And that leader was him, as stressful and frustrating as leading was. He looked over at Evaline, and his eyes narrowed. He just had to take this one problem at a time. And right this second, he figured that he and Gabriel's biggest concern was the dhampir going crazy and trying to kill them. Starving vampires, and therefor he assumed dhampirs, were even more like wild animals than they were when they weren't driven mad by blood lust. Not to mention that Evaline was a good fighter.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Ev.. Alana." He said, quickly correcting himself. He couldn't risk a vampire overhearing and realize that Carla had lied about the dhampir's name. Of course, Merlin didn't care if Carla was caught in a lie, but he figured that if whatever Carla was doing went wrong, it would certainly be the end for him and Gabriel. Of course, it was probably the end for them anyway.. he sighed.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Alana, if I help you out with your... problem... would you help us figure out how to get out of here?" he asked slowly. He watched the dhampir with a frown. He was certainly desperate, offering help to someone with fangs, even if she was also half human.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Samuel was to the point, which Gaius appreciated. He gave a nod at Samuel’s direction and the need to ascertain whether or not this Carla was telling the truth. It seemed Samuel was already biased towards her, so Samuel imagined he’d have to act biased against her, though he had no opinion just yet.<br>
<br>
<br>
He hadn’t known Hercine all that well, but he hadn’t liked Hercine. He was an upstart, and those sorts always annoyed Gaius even if they were smart and rightly ambitious.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gaius followed after and saw the vampiress there, dark-haired and light-eyed, certainly a pretty one. He didn’t know how old she was, wasn’t familiar with her by name. “Hello,” Gaius said and walked forward. He offered his hand, “I am Gaius Catalla Mercellus. Who are you, and who is responsible for you?” As in, who was her sire, who was to blame if all went wrong.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline willed herself to remain silent since her tongue disobeyed her desires to speak English. She was slipping, and she knew it. She could only hope she’d slip into unconsciousness and not into the feral state that gripped her with each breath she had to take. She was trying to hold her breath for longer periods of time, each time.<br>
<br>
<br>
Her eyes remained shut. She focused still on retracting her fangs, and clenching her fist around the metal bar. The nails threatened to dig into her own palm each time, but they were adequate distractions for the time being.<br>
<br>
<br>
She opened one eye when Merlin made it clear that he was addressing her. It took her a few moments to understand what Merlin was offering, though Gabriel knew immediately, “You can’t do that!” Gabriel said, eyes wide. “You don’t know what—none of us know what that might do.” They knew the risks of a vampire bite, which were certainly not good risks. A dhampir was unknown.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline bit the inside of her cheek. She could tell Gabriel there was no risk of becoming a vampire, but he wouldn’t understand, presently. “Ou—” French. She bit down on the word and gave a single nod. A clearer head would help her to think, which would help them to get out if it was necessary. It also put the two of them at a lesser risk, if she didn’t just slip nicely into unconsciousness.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla watched the other two vampires, stepping forward and shaking the one vampire's offered hand. "Nice to meet you." She said, sounding a little nervous. She had just killed a vampire Lord, after all. She didn't know if this Gaius was very loyal to Hercine. She didn't know what his reaction to what she had done was just yet.<br>
<br>
<br>
"My name is Carla Davenport." She said. At Gaius's second question, she paused. "My sire is dead." She said quietly. Samuel was watching her closely, narrowing his eyes slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"What happened to him?" He asked. Carla got a little fidgety. Her sire, and was had happened to him, was something that she knew she couldn't lie about. All either of these vampires would have to do was to ask somebody who had heard of her, and that lie would crumble. And if she got caught in one lie, everything else she said would come under even more scrutiny.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I.. killed him." She said softly. Samuel raised an eyebrow. "I was newly turned and in an unfamiliar place. I...I was confused and I was panicking." Carla said quickly. Feigning a look of remorse, she let out a sigh. "It was a mistake, alright? Please don't let that make you any more biased against me than you both probably are." Samuel scowled.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin looked over at Gabriel as the other man protested what Merlin was offering. "I don't want to die here, Gabriel." He said, willing his voice to remain steady. "She could probably be helpful trying to get free." Gabriel was right, of course. They didn't know what a dhampir's bite would do. Merlin didn't know if dhampirs could turn people or not.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Who knows, she might not even be able to turn people." He said. He really hoped that was true.<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin watched Evaline nod, taking a slow step towards her. He had never had anybody drink from him but he tried to put those concerns aside. He needed to get out of here. He had to do whatever it takes to get out of here. To get back to his people. He couldn't just give up and abandon them just because he was too cowardly to risk the possibly results from a bite from a dhampir.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Okay.." he said slowly, holding out his wrist, a little awkwardly.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gaius sat after the handshake, and listened to the answer Carla provided him. By her words, that meant she likely didn’t know the name of her sire, but he still had to prod, “What was his name?” That would offer more insight into the situation. The actual identity of the sire was often useful.<br>
<br>
<br>
The fact that he was dead made it reasonable for why Gaius wouldn’t know Carla. She must have fled, and had to learn how to be a vampire more or less on her own. The sires were in charge of educating their childes. He was pleased that she was at least willing to confess to his death. Considering the situation she was in, that would have been something to lie about—two vampire murders was not good for anyone’s reputation, if those vampires hadn’t already been determined to be traitors in some fashion.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
When Merlin spoke of her inability to turn people, she gave another single, firm nod, hoping he understood. So far as Evaline knew, she didn’t produce that venom. Never had, likely never would.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel narrowed his eyes though. It could easily be a ploy, or a lie, and Evaline accepted that suspicion. She’d be suspicious in his shoes. Would she do it, though? Evaline considered she had already put her life on the line for them, and it led her here.<br>
<br>
<br>
The answer was obvious.<br>
<br>
<br>
The wrist was offered. Evaline could tell him there were less painful locations, but then again, they weren’t the easiest to access. Hopefully, he’d never have to know again. Evaline kept one hand on the bar, and reached with her other for his. There was a part of her that longed to deny it, but she knew how that would end—she’d kill them both. So, she drew the wrist closer to her lips, and then let the fangs puncture the offered flesh to take the blood out of his veins.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel looked away immediately.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"His name was Luther Blake." Carla said. She stood in front of Gaius, frowning. "Although that might not even have been his real name. I never heard of him before he turned me and I knew of a lot of the vampires in the area where I lived." She shrugged. She hated thinking about Luther, about being turned. Those were such unpleasant memories.<br>
<br>
<br>
"You like killing vampires?" Samuel asking, narrowing his eyes at her. A vampire is kind enough to offer her the gift of being a vampire, of being immortal , and she kills him for it? Disgraceful.<br>
<br>
<br>
Clara glanced over at Samuel. She could guess what he was thinking. "No." She said, wondering how much the fact that she had killed her sire would effect the outcome of this current situation. Hopefully, it wouldn't change that much. It very well might, though. After all, these vampires had just met her and she had confessed to killing not one, but two vampires. She didn't have the greatest reputation. Of course, two vampires seemed like almost nothing compared to what she has done using aliases. Luckily these vampires didn't know anything but what she was telling them. Otherwise, it would certainly be all over for her.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin saw Evaline nod when he mentioned her not being able to turn people. He hoped she was confirming his hopes of not being turned by her. He told himself that dhampirs <i>were</i> half human, even if they seemed more like vampires. Humans couldn't turn people. So maybe dhampirs couldn't either.<br>
<br>
<br>
As Evaline bit into his wrist, Merlin flinched. He made the mistake of glancing down at her, and his stomach twisted up in knots. Looking away, he let out a sigh, forcing himself to remain calm. He kept telling himself that this was necessary. Helping Evaline would better his chances of getting him and Gabriel free.<br>
<br>
<br>
He was a bit freaked out though. He had never been bitten before. How would he know if Evaline was turning him? His free hand clenched into a fist, and he forced himself to not look down at Evaline. He had to try and get back to his people. If that meant letting a dhampir drink from him, so be it.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Luther Blake wasn’t a man of much repute, one way or another. <i>‘Why did he turn you?’</i> It was a decent question to ask, but Gaius did not. He did not imagine there would be an answer if Carla had been so confused at the outset of this event. Luther must have meant it for harm rather than good.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘Still….’</i> He thought to phrase it another way, “Did Luther say what he was going to do to you?” He cast a glance at Samuel, “It is possible he didn’t mention it.” And if so, then Luther had broken their own laws by turning a human who hadn’t consented. It wasn’t punishable by death, not usually, but it would shine some light on the situation and the character of this woman.<br>
<br>
<br>
He knew this was off track from Hercine, but he imagined it’d be easy enough to get back on track, and find out how the woman knew Hercine was dealing with rebels. It was still difficult to see. Hercine had never seemed like a turncoat.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline didn’t let her gaze move up. She could feel the fear and disgust in the trembling of his arm. She drank, not deeply, but until she felt satisfied. Until her head stopped swimming with French and she could think in a coherent, English sentence. That was when she licked the wound to close it, and pushed Merlin’s arm back to him.<br>
<br>
<br>
One deep breath was taken as she pulled herself to her feet. Dhampirs didn’t need as much blood as vampires, so she certainly hoped Merlin was feeling all right after the loss. “Thank you,” the words were a bit slower, weighed still from the memories of French. She decided to explain, glancing to Gabriel, “My native tongue is French,” so he’d know what she was speaking.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Uh…huh,” Gabriel blinked, “Wait, you’re from France?” He’d heard of France. He was certain that was far away.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline nodded. “Are you all right?” She was still speaking slowly, as she addressed Merlin.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla simply shrugged at Gaius's question. It made sense that he would ask that. After all, vampires tend to have a reason for turning somebody. "He was going to marry me." She stated. "Although I only got that wonderful news after I was turned. I think he might have just said he was going to marry me because he turned me without thinking and thought a marriage would fix things." She shrugged again. Samuel raised an eyebrow.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Did you not give your permission?" He asked, frowning a little. Carla shook her head slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"No, I didn't." She said, crossing her arms over her chest. "Look, I had a good reason to kill Luther Blake. I don't take killing a vampire lightly." She said. She was kind of lying about that last part, but Samuel and Gaius didn't know that.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hmm." Samuel said thoughtfully. Maybe Carla wasn't a bad person, as he had first assumed. If she really hadn't consented to being turned, and then had woken up scared and confused, killing her sire was an action that made sense.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
When Evaline pulled away, Merlin let out a soft sigh of relief. He put his hand over his wrist, watching the dhampir. "Ah." He said simply, regarding Evaline's explanation of her language use. When she asked if he was alright, he nodded.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm fine." He said. He didn't feel bad. A little lightheaded from the blood loss, but that was bearable. It was certainly more bearable than having a starving dhampir attack him, and probably kill him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I still feel human, so I don't think you turned me." he commented, glancing around the cage. Now the figure out a way out of here.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gaius nodded, accepting Carla’s answer for Luther. If his sire hadn’t informed him what was going on, he would have lashed out. Then again, he’d been a Centurion—violence had been his thing. Fortunately, he’d been told, and he allowed for it to happen. That was even before these formal rules were in place.<br>
<br>
<br>
That was why these formal rules were in place, among other reasons. People had been turned into vampires for grudge reasons in the past, and that just made more powerful enemies for all vampires to deal with. “All right, let’s get back to the topic at hand. Hercine,” he said, and thought to what he’d been told. “Tell me how you came to know that Hercine was a human sympathizer,” he hadn’t been given all the details of how she supposedly knew this to be true.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline smiled a bit at the comment about turning, “We can’t. Not to dhampir, nor to vampire—and we can’t make vampires human,” she had remembered when that was questioned, too. As far as Evaline knew, despite her father’s hopes, the dhampir was infertile. It couldn’t create like human nor vampires.<br>
<br>
<br>
For some, like Merlin right now, that was likely a relief. “Did you ever try?” came Gabriel’s question.<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline shook her head, but answered, “Not to turn, but I’ve tried to produce the venom. I don’t have the sacs,” she’d undergone an examination when she stumbled upon a couple humans who had secured a medical facility.<br>
<br>
<br>
She then turned to the topic at hand. Escape. She bit the inside of her cheek, then shook her head, “For the moment,” she took a glance down the hall to see where the nearest vampire was, then lowered her voice just in case, “we should not move to escape, but we can identify the methods.” There was the door, obviously, locked though it was. The standard tricks of one being sick likely wouldn’t work. No windows. Evaline paced along the walls, not sure what she was looking for.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘Seems like just the door.’</i><br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel complained, “Why shouldn’t we be acting now?” His voice was also kept at a whisper, following Evaline’s lead there. His eyes followed her as she stalked the small cell.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Carla has a plan.” She wasn’t privy to it, but she understood.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla nodded at Gaius. "I lived here about a hundred years ago." She informed him. "It was around that time when I first started to suspect Hercine."<br>
<br>
<br>
"And got yourself exiled." Samuel muttered. Clara let out a sigh.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Yes, I was exiled. But I'll get to that in a minute." She said, looking back at Gaius. "When I lived here, I mostly kept to myself. I didn't know anyone very well." She shrugged slightly. "I bought a house and a few slaves. One of slaves was named Diana. One day I came home to find her missing. I was quite angry at first, thinking she had run away, until one of my other humans explained to me that some of Hercine's people broke into my home and took Diana away." She frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"So I went to Hercine and asked for Diana back, or at least enough money to buy another human. He refused. Then he told me that she had been killed because she was organizing a rebellion among the other humans. That wasn't true." She paused for a second. "I think that Hercine let Diana go. Nobody ever saw her body. If she was dead, why go through such a effort to hide her remains?"<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
"Hhm. Good to know." Merlin said thoughtfully, peering at Evaline as she told them that dhampirs couldn't turn anyone into anything. He looked around, trying to think of an escape plan. He turned back and looked at Evaline when the dhampir mentioned Carla.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Carla having a plan would be a lot more comforting if I trusted Carla." Merlin muttered. "I think we should be trying to figure out how to get out of here as soon as possible. We don't know what Carla is planning. She could be talking to somebody right now...arranging our executions." He said, also lowering his voice in case there were vampire guards nearby.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I mean, for all we know the bitch vampire could be arranging for Gabriel and me to be sold into slavery. God knows what she could be arranging for you." He said, nodding at Evaline. "Seeing as being executed or sold are both things that I would like to avoid.." his voice trailed off as he looked around the cell again. "I think we should try to escape as soon as possible."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hercine had never reported such a thing, from what Gaius remembered. That wasn’t saying much, but he could check the records. He made a note to do so, looking back a century or so for any commentary on a human rebel called Diana, and a report by Hercine.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gaius didn’t take the bait about ‘why hide the body’. He could think of reasons. A group with a lost leader often became lost in hope. He’d employed the strategy before and watched groups dissolve because there was just no proof that their leader was dead. “Did you report this incident? If Hercine had taken your human, there were routes you could have gone to sue him for the money or return,” Gaius could also look into the records to see if a Diana was mentioned that way.<br>
<br>
<br>
However, he had a feeling that Carla hadn’t done this. There was going to be an annoying lack of paper for this case.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘God knows what?’</i> “Experimentation,” Evaline filled in. Experimentation or execution seemed the only live options, and experimentation was the last thing Evaline wanted.<br>
<br>
<br>
Still, it seemed the only way out was the door. “She may also be plotting how to get us out alive,” considering the route she had chosen, Evaline could only really see one way for the rebels. Slavery, of course, but slavery under Carla. “She called me Alana.” Her real name would have been a death sentence to anyone who remembered her father—and she was certain that memory was alive here.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Even so, this,” Evaline gestured to the door, “Is our only way.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel frowned, “And how is that our escape?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline shrugged. “We get it open.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel gave her such a dirty look for stating the obvious. He got up from where he was and decided to approach the part where the lock was, glancing down the hall for vampires. He wouldn’t touch it, but he did lift himself up on his tiptoes to try and see down, to figure out the locking mechanism. “We could pretend you’re sick.” Evaline said as a jest.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla shrugged. "I was going to report it, but then Hercine had me exiled." She stated. "He gave me two choices. Leave and never come back, or he would accuse me of aiding Diana's rebellion and freeing her. I'm not an idiot, I knew that if I stuck around I would be charged and sentenced. Nobody would have believed me over Hercine. I was new and mostly kept to myself and he was the leader. And I couldn't prove that I hadn't let Diana go, because I didn't have her." She explained. Samuel frowned.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Over the years, have either of you noticed that every once in a while a slave belonging to Hercine just vanishes? No body, no explanation, or anything. He let humans go." Carla insisted.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
Experimentation? Merlin frowned. He wondered if Evaline had been experimented on before. He peered at her, shrugging slightly at what she said about Carla. "We have no way to know for sure what the hell she's doing." He said. "I mean, she might have called you Alana to keep you alive for longer, but not avoid execution or experimentation forever." He pointed out. "She could need something from you and once she gets it, you die." He looked over at Gabriel as he inspected the lock.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Even if we could get the door open, I doubt we would be able to get far enough away without anybody noticing." He said thoughtfully. He started pacing, shoving his hands into his pockets. "Okay.. Carla said that we've been working with Hercine." He glanced over at Gabriel. "Maybe we'll be asked about it. We could be taken somewhere else to be question. If that's the case, we could try to escape then, although there would probably be a lot more guards around." he scowled.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Of course Gaius hadn’t noticed. He never cared enough about a few missing slaves from any vampire. It was bound to happen. So if Hercine had a few go missing over the years, it was nothing to wonder about. Gaius didn’t even wonder about it then, as it was put before him. He just shrugged. “It is possible.” If so, Hercine wasn’t smart about his alliances, though that was obvious.<br>
<br>
<br>
He was dead. “All right then,” Gaius waved a dismissive hand, “Tell us how you got involved in that mess with Hercine earlier, and what you knew about the situation with the dhampir and rebels.” For that was curious. Gaius didn’t even know of this Alana Montgomery, and usually the birth of a dhampir was not something that fell under the radar easily. Even if the pregnancy could be hidden, usually the infant’s nature made itself known quickly, and people gossiped.<br>
<br>
<br>
It seemed strange that a dhampir was involved in all of this. He wasn’t clear on whether or not she was in favor of vampires or humans, though if she was being traded, that indicated an ally.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘Carla couldn’t keep that from me forever.’</i> All good dhampirs were expected to go through with experimentations to enjoy their livelihood in the protection of vampire society. There were many reasons why this world didn’t suit her, and that was high on the list. Some dhampirs were fine with it, or at least, she’d heard that. She’d never met one.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Should we get our story straight?” Gabriel couldn’t help but ask when Merlin mentioned the Hercine bit. It was a bit derisive, “or would a confusing mess be better?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline shook her head, caught between amusement and exasperation, “At least my role seems the same.” The bait to trade. This was too easy. “But it would be easier when we’re let out for questioning,” if they were. “Or for any reason,” she let her gaze move to Merlin, “Should we act together, or wait until we’re separated?” When the door opened, they’d have the chance to act as one, rather than be pulled in three different directions.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla nodded at Gaius' question. "I got involved with this current situation about twenty years ago. I was in the area and I contacted an old friend from when I lived here. His name was Peter Troy. He mentioned that Hercine was protecting him from some human rebels. And then he was killed by..."<br>
<br>
<br>
"It's awfully convenient that all of your information comes from dead people." Samuel said dryly, interrupting Carla. Carla narrowed her eyes slightly at him.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Actually, not <i>all</i> of my information." She said. "But I'll get to that in a minute. What I was saying before I was interrupted is that Peter was killed by human rebels. So my question was how did a vampire under Hercine's protection get killed like that. I found the man who killed Peter." She said. "He wasn't a slave here. Hell, he wasn't even marked so it wasn't like he could have just lied his way in." She said. She was talking about Esmeralda's father. She figured she could use him in her lies, since the man was dead anyway.<br>
<br>
<br>
"The human's name was Aaron. I don't know what his last name was." She informed them. "Now, after that, I was more suspicious of Hercine than ever. However, some human rebels found me. I managed to escape from them, but they knew that I wanted to come back here and look into Hercine. They found that out by torturing me. So it wasn't safe for me to come back here. Until a few days ago, when I got bored and figured I would risk it. I saw the rebels that you have locked up and started watching them. I overheard one of them mention the meeting with Hercine and that's how I got here." Samuel nodded slowly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Where does the dhampir fit into all of this?" he asked. He had never heard of the dhampir. Which was surprising, considering the fact that a dhampir doing so much as existing was a big deal. Carla just shrugged slightly. She knew that this was where she had to be careful. If she said too much and then Evaline said something different, it wouldn't be the best situation.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I found out about the dhampir watching the rebels arrive at the building." She said. "I overheard her name, and that she was being given to Hercine, but that's it. I've never heard of her, nor do I have any idea where her loyalties lie." Evaline would have to handle a bit of Carla's scheme herself. Carla would let Evaline figure out what exactly she wanted to tell these people. "Although considering that humans were keeping her prisoner, she may prefer her vampire side." Carla shrugged.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin nodded thoughtfully when Gabriel asked if they should get their story straight. He thought that they probably should, although that might be a bit difficult considering that they had no idea what exactly Carla was trying to accomplish. So perhaps a confusing mess would be better. But if they didn't cooperate with the vampires, things might be worst for them versus if they lied.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Getting our story straight is probably a good idea, I'm just not sure what exactly our story should be." He frowned, trying to figure out the best answer when Evaline asked about them acting together. That particular question was something Merlin could handle. Plans of action, he could do. Plans of lies and manipulation.. not so much. So he decided to focus on what seemed to be what would happen first.. the cage door being opened.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Once we're separated, Gabriel and I will almost certainly be locked up." He glanced over at the other human. "But, depending on what Carla is saying about you," he looked at Evaline. "You might not be." He paused thoughtfully. "So.. if they don't chain you up or anything, I wouldn't screw things up for yourself by trying to fight them. Lying may be better." He watched Evaline thoughtfully.<br>
<br>
<br>
"For us, however." He looked over at Gabriel. "I don't think we have a chance of a situation that's at least somewhat.. civil." He shrugged slightly. Regardless of whatever Carla was doing, he and Gabriel were still human rebels. "So we might want to try and escape if we're still together." After all, there was strength in numbers. Even if that number was two, maybe three if Evaline was with them, against a city full of vampires</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">It was interesting how so many of the contacts were dead, though if Hercine was covering tracks that was the smart way to go about it, too. Carla noted she had a contact alive, and would get to that, so Gaius waited to hear it as she got to the ‘end’ of the story. The dhampir wasn’t known to Carla. Her allegiances weren’t known, either.<br>
<br>
<br>
There was the obvious guess, that she was for vampires. It wasn’t unknown. There wasn’t really anything common about dhampirs to be certain which was more probable, in either case. Gaius assumed humans were just as ignorant about them, if not more so. However, if Hercine was willing to trade for the dhampir, that meant something.<br>
<br>
<br>
“We’ll have to have someone speak to this Alana, then,” Gaius said softly, “and the rebels, as well, to find out what was going on with this trade,” it was possible the dhampir had no idea. Making the rebels talk might be difficult, though. “You said you had some living contacts left, Carla? Who can speak for you?”<br>
<br>
<br>
With a trail of dead, it was hard to know the character of Carla, and whether or not she was trustworthy. Speaking with the rebels and the dhampir might help to figure that out, though they were even more susceptible to lying than Carla, in his mind.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Gabriel understood the odds of escaping were better if they were together, so he started to nod to that idea, “There might be a civil way. Of sorts.” Evaline spoke up.<br>
<br>
<br>
“And what would that be, Evalana,” he threw the name into one rather smoothly, and she couldn’t help but smirk a bit at it.<br>
<br>
<br>
How quickly he’d grown accustomed to Evaline. “We agree on a simple story. I’m a vampire sympathizer, and something Hercine wanted.” She kept her ears alert for the sounds of steps. If they were heard plotting a story, it would all fall apart.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Why would Hercine…,” there was a look in her eyes when they glanced up from the floor that gave Merlin the word. “Oh.” Experiments. “Does that really happen? I mean…even if you’re with the leeches?”<br>
<br>
<br>
She lifted her eyebrows once, then looked back down to the floor, “Vampires are interested in our ability to defy daylight, to eat human food, and much else. It doesn’t matter what side you fall on, human sympathizer or with the vampires entirely, we’re…interesting.” She shrugged her shoulders, dismissed it as something that simply was true, like so much else. A simple reality. “If that doesn’t suit as a reason, go with money. Others would pay Hercine for a dhampir. You two can decide on it, I can play ignorant of the intentions. The point I want to get at is, if I can play it off well enough, they might…accept me as one of them, and allow me to decide the punishment for you two, since I was the one harmed.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Eye for an eye sort of justice, if she could manage it. Rebels didn’t exactly get trials.<br>
<br>
<br>
“You’re thinking slavery, aren’t you?” Gabriel didn’t sound at all inclined towards that, even as a charade. What guarantee did he have that it was a charade, after all? They’d already been screwed over by Carla, who was to say Evaline wouldn’t take this second chance as well?</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Carla nodded at Gaius. She wasn't terribly worried about them speaking to Evaline. The dhampir seemed smart enough to realize what was in her best interest. And what would be the best thing for Evaline to do would be to play along with Carla's lies. Carla hoped the dhampir did realize this.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was the rebels that she was a little concerned about. Of course, the vampires might not believe them if they said they weren't working with Hercine, but Carla doubted that would do anything to make them believe her. She hoped that the humans were smart enough to lie. At Gaius' question about who could speak for her, she didn't even blink before answering.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Richard Mckinney. He lives here, and sired Peter Troy." And was why Peter was killed, but Carla didn't tell the vampires this. Richard owed her a favor for killing Peter. She was fairly certain that he would lie for her.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I know him." Samuel said thoughtfully. "He knew of your suspicions of Hercine?" He questioned. Carla nodded.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Yes. At first, he thought I was crazy." She said. "And then Peter was killed and Richard started to believe me. Of course, he hadn't acted on his suspicions because that wouldn't have been very smart of him to do."<br>
<br>
<br>
"No, that wouldn't have been smart of him." Samuel commented. "Wasn't very smart of you either." Carla shrugged slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"No, it wasn't smart of me to act." She admitted. "After all, I have no guarantee that you're going to believe me. But I believe that I did the right thing, that's why I confessed to killing Hercine."<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin nodded thoughtfully, watching Evaline. He sighed softly when she spoke of the vampires experimenting on her. He couldn't imagine what it would be like to be experimented on. Actually, he could imagine a little and nothing that he thought up was very pleasant. He frowned slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Alright. We were selling you to Hercine because he wanted to experiment on you." He said. When Evaline mentioned her being the one to decide on his and Gabriel's punishment, he frowned. That might end up better than if it was a random vampire deciding their fates, but that would mean that Evaline was on their side. Merlin wasn't entirely sure who's side the dhampir was on.<br>
<br>
<br>
At Gabriel's mention of slavery, Merlin frowned. His first thought was 'I'd rather die.' But maybe it could just be a charade. Again, that would be meaning that Evaline was on their side.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Wonderful." He commented dryly, running a hand through his hair. "Exactly whose side are you on?" He asked then, peering at Evaline intently. "Are you going to be like Carla and completely screw us over?" Of course, if these were Evaline's intentions, she had no reason to admit it. Still, Merlin had to ask.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Gaius gave a nod as the name was given, and turned his attention from Carla to Samuel, “Do you want to have people sent to get Richard for questioning, and some others to go question the rebels and dhampir?”<br>
<br>
<br>
That seemed the next step in finding out if Carla’s story checked out. They had to check her sources, the few living ones. The rebels likely wouldn’t be good sources, but this Richard could. The dhampir was uncertain, but questioning her would certainly help matters progress. “I can stay with Carla if you wish to question Richard yourself,” he wasn’t sure if Samuel would want someone else to do it, since Samuel knew Richard.<br>
<br>
<br>
He ought to know his nervous ticks.<br>
<br>
<br>
~***~<br>
<br>
<br>
Evaline gave a nod, accepting the reason given. However, when Merlin accused her of treachery and asked her side, she shut her eyes and shook her head.<br>
<br>
<br>
“You’re forgetting,” she began softly, “that I’m not Alana.” The two humans already had the way to condemn her, if they wanted to. Her and Carla both, really. “Just tell them who I am if you want to know what side I’m on.” It wasn’t something Evaline really wanted them to do, and she was hoping they’d understand.<br>
<br>
<br>
“But that—” Merlin realized it before he could finish. “Oh.” Right. If Evaline was safe under her own name, Carla wouldn’t have changed it. He remembered that Carla seemed to know of Evaline’s parents, and what happened to them.<br>
<br>
<br>
Dhampirs evidently lived longer than humans. “I’ve no intention of living a lie for very long,” Evaline said calmly. “The second I’ve the chance to leave it, we’ll all leave it. If you don’t trust that, Merlin, then go ahead and have me condemned with you.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Samuel looked over at Gaius, nodding thoughtfully. "Sure." He said, glancing at Carla. They needed to know if she was telling the truth. He knew Richard fairly well, he figured that he should be able to tell if Richard was lying.<br>
<br>
<br>
Carla didn't say anything. This was where things could really go wrong. She didn't let her worries show on her face. She couldn't. If she did, they would know that she was hiding something. So she remained to appear calm. She watched as Samuel headed towards the door.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'll have some people go question the rebels and the dhampir." He said. This was going to be interesting.<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
<br>
Merlin watched Evaline closely. He realized that he and Gabriel already had one way to condemn Alana if they chose to. One comment about Evaline's name would be enough to condemn her to death. Or experimentation.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Fine." He said after a moment of silence. "We're all in this together. For now anyway." He commented dryly, glancing towards the door again. He ran his hand through his hair. He hated being in this cell, just waiting. It was driving him crazy.</div>
