Laurell watched as Requiem kissed Alex roughly her eyes glowing slightly, she turned her head spotting Ewan still laying on the ground, She had felt Hunters arrival and knew he would be safe for a while. she turned back to requiem smiling, her hand gently stroking the Slayers cheek. "Hush little slayer all will be well" she whispered softly her eyes shining, she tried to convey with her eyes that she shouldnt be to afriad she was there to help. "Requiem i dont think her pets going to be able to get up" she said gently her voice oozing lust and need. "Can't we just take her and go leave him to his painful death?" she asked him gently kissing at his jaw line her mouth only inches from the slayers ear. "Remember there is only 45 minutes before the sun rises" she spoke softly hoping against hope that Alex would get her meaning.

After a few moments of hesitation, Requiem grabbed the slayer and roughly threw her over his shoulder. Lets go down to the warehouse. Set up operations....oh slayer, you're in for a rough day. If your pets do manage to survive and come to your rescue, they wont last long." Requiem ignored Ewan and didnt even notice Hunter. He was having too much fun basking in his triumph. The warehouse wasnt too far away and it only took a few minutes to get there at vampire speed. Once they were there, he closed all doors and windows, wanting to block out the oncoming sunlight. He threw Alex in a chair and wrapped chains around her. "There's no escape. Laurell, I have to go get some toys that our slayer can play with....watch over her for me will you? You can have some fun too. I wont be far away," he said, giving her a warning not to betray him because he'd be watching.
Hunter pinned Ewan down on the ground and pulled the last bullet out. Ewan moaned loudly, finally feeling the after effects and the pain. Once the bullets were out, the wounds started to heal. "Thanks Hunter." Hunter smiled and helped his new son to his feet. "Come on, we dont have much time"

No matter how hard Alex tried to get free from the chains, she couldn't do it. Fear was bubbling inside of her again, but she wasn't going to show it. She wouldn't let Requiem have satisfaction in knowing that he had caused her pain and fear. She would endure her punishment, no matter how much pain it gave. She would bear it, and still snap at him. At the moment all she could think about was Ewan, she had no idea whether he was alive or not. "If he's dead at least I'll be joining him soon." She thought.

Laurell watched as Alex struggled to get free of the chains, Requiems voice informing her that she could have fun but warning her gently that he was watching.
She bit her lip gently as she watched Requiem disappear into a darkened corner of the warehouse. As soon as he was out of sight she dropped to her knees beside Alex her eyes telling her she couldn’t speak to loudly, she lent in close to her
“Ewan will be ok.” She whispered softly in her ear, her voice so low it hardly disturbed the air around them. “Hunter is with him.”
She pulled back and smiled at Alex, knowing full well that the girl didn’t trust her. Laurell swallowed deeply, her eyes darted over to where Requiem had disappeared into the shadows, she could sense he was still there close enough to hear her say anything above a whisper,
’don’t be scared’ Laurell mouthed to the slayer 'I will try not to hurt you to much.'
Laurell stood and looked round the warehouse, Requiem had closed the shutters on all the windows and Laurell shook her head, this was hopeless, then she noticed that one window had been left uncovered, there was still a chance even if it meant she herself might get toasted. She looked back at the slayer and leant in close again. “Look I'm gonna have to make it look like I'm torturing you but I'll try not to hurt you to much ok” she mumbled as close to her ear as she could, to cover her tracks she licked the girls neck slowly following the line of her throbbing vein as far as her shoulder. Laurells mind worked furiously as she tried to work out her next move… then it dawned on her. Slowly and carefully Laurell withdrew her knife and signaled urgently to Alex That she need to cut her arm.
She growled loud enough for Requiem to hear,
“This is gonna hurt Slayer” before she drew the blade lightly down Alex’s arm drawing blood, her eyes telling the girl she was sorry it had to be this way. With a swift hand Laurell collected some of the fresh hot blood under her nail, with a gentle caress she ran her bloody nail along the slayers cheek leaving a trail of fresh sticky slayer blood to run down her unharmed cheek
“Scream Alex” she said softly as she dipped her fingers into the blood still running from Alex’s arm, Laurell’s fingers smoked slightly as they touched where the knife had been and silently she cursed remembering the holy water she had washed it in beforehand. She smeared this blood across the girl’s forehead in the shape of an L.
In a moment of madness Laurell remembered the small bottle of holy water she had in her pocket and slowly she reached in and pulled it out checking over her shoulder to make sure Requiem was no where near, she splashed Alex’s neck with the holy water before replacing the stopper and pocketing the bottle.

Hunter pulled Ewan's arm over his shoulder and guided him to the abandoned warehouse. "Ewan, you must stay calm. Do you understand? Do NOT overreact. Dont let your anger get the best of you. Requiem is going to use that against you. Fight with wisdom. Remember, you can save her. You just have to play your cards right." Ewan listened to everything Hunter had to say and nodded in all the right places. He understood and he was sure that he wouldnt let Requiem get away again. 'Alex will be fine. Hunter told you that Laurell will make sure of that. She better......I swear, if she messes up one more time....' Hunter broke his train of thought with an loud howl. "Im going to circle the building, making as much noise as I can. Ewan, you will go in through the broken window, near the roof. Stay quiet and play along. Laurell wont turn her back on us. I know it. She has one more chance to prove her loyalty to us. If she betrays us....." Ewan finished his sentence, "all is lost...."
Hunter let go of Ewan and started circling the building, howling every now and then. Ewan climbed up the roof and slipped through a large crack in one of the windows. He stuck to the shadows and eventually made it to th ground floor. He came out slowly, growling softly. He'd trust Laurell, but he wanted her to prove herself first. He'd play along. For Alex's sake. "Let her go," he said, his eyes soft. He wanted Laurell to know that he was only saying this for Requiem's benefit.
Requiem hopped down from the roof rafters and landed right next to Laurell. He kissed her passionately and wandered over to the slayer. He picked up a strand of her hair and twirled it in his fingers. Ewan narrowed his eyes and the volume of his growling increased. "Does it bother you, how close I am to your precious slayer?" Before he could get an answer, Requiem lowered his mouth and kissed Alex's throat (which really made Ewan nervous), jaw and eventually ended up at her mouth. When he was done taunting, he stood up straight and smirked.

Alex stiffened as Requiem kissed her throat, jaw, and then mouth. She wanted to cry because Ewan was watching the whole thing. The cut on her arm was stinging and she could only imagine how her face looked with her blood on it. Her face showed no expression but she moved her head down, not wanting to meet Ewan's gaze. She hoped that Ewan didn't think that she liked the kiss, hopefully he wasn't that paranoid. She tried to think of Laurell. She still didn't believe that Laurell had a soul. She couldn't. She was grateful that she didn't hurt her too badly but it could all just be an act.

Laurell stepped back away from Alex as Ewans growl reached her ears, she swallowed deeply a fear rushing through her, He would think she had hurt her with malice. laurell moved silently backwards until Requiem dropped at her feet, his kiss making it all seem alright for a while. As requiem teased ewan by kissing the slayers neck not knowing that Holy water soaked her throat. Laurell took a step back and searched above her for the open window she had seen... There it was and she could just make out a lightening in the sky "10 minutes" she intoned softly before closing her eyes and mumbling to herself the spell she had memorised to help her walk in light. Ewans growl echoed round her and she opened her eyes, before moving forwards slightly towards where Alex sat.

"Ha, ha, ha! Dont worry, I won't hurt her to bad. I was thinking of keeping her as a--" Just then, Requiem's lips started to burn and the sensation carried on down his throat. He screamed in pain and ran off towards the warehouse bathroom. Ewan couldnt help but chuckle and even gave lauell a small smile before he noticed the cut on Alex's arm. He snarled loudly and got into a crouching position, moving closer to the two. Requiem was busy washing off the holy water, so he wouldnt be a problem. "Did you do this?" Ewan asked, only a few inches from Laurell. "Forget it. Ill deal with you later. I have to get her out of thes--" Ewan was thrown back into a wall, leaving a huge dent as he fell to the ground. Requiem was back in record timing, looking totally pissed off. "So, the boy has left holy water on her neck? Im impressed that you could think that far ahead. I doubt Laurell would do anything like that. Unless the slayer thought of it first. Needless to say.....I wont fall for it again. Laurell, make sure he doesnt come near the girl, please." Requiem pulled out a wash cloth and an unidentified brown bottle. He dabbed the cloth in the bottle and started wiping Alex's neck. "It will burn, but only for a few seconds...maybe longer."
Hunter sat on the roof, looking through the broken glass, waiting for the perfect time to come in. "Come on Laurell......" he whispered, more to himself.

Alex hissed through gritted teeth as the stuff that Requiem put on her neck started to burn. She shut her eyes tightly until the burning feeling passed, leaving her neck slightly raw. She struggled against the chains, wanting to hurt him. "Guess you should learn to keep your mouth to yourself, shouldn't you?" She smirked, glad that he got burned. She would probably get hit or hurt somehow for that remark but in her opinion, it was worth it. Her eyes darted to Ewan and her smirk faded a little.

Laurell moved closer to ewan Guarding him her eyes trying to tell him to be ready, she gazed up at the ever lightening sky, She could hear Requiem applying the liquid to Alex’s neck. at least Alex hadnt ratted on her and for that she was grateful. Laurell chewed on her lip thinking hard, she glanced over her shoulder at Requiem watching that he was busy before turning back to Ewan, “Your little slayer is going to be good fun” she growled at him as she circled him slowly, she needed to be able to see Requiem if she was going to be able to sort this mess out. her eyes flashed upwards to the open skylight the day was growing steadily brighter, when the time came she would only have one chance, she chewed harder on her lip drawing blood, letting it run freely down her chin. "Ohhh dont worry Ewan Im sure you will grow to love the sound of her screams and the smell of her blood" She hissed her knife still in her hands.

'She's just playing along. What she's saying isn't true. Trust Laurell. Trust Hunter,' he thought over and over in his head. Ewan got up slowly and continued to growl, playing his part perfectly. He wasn't gonna screw this up when Alex's life was on the line. Ewan didnt know what Laurell had planned, so he'd have to take things into his own hands. Without warning, he leapt over Laurell and right infront of his enemy. He grabbed Requiem by the shirt and threw him onto the ground. He grabbed the brown bottle and poured every last drop into Requiem's eyes. Requiem squirmed on the ground, screaming in pain and shouting death threats.
Ewan didnt bother with Laurell and bit down on Alex's chains, eventually breaking them. Hunter jumped down from the roof and landed infront of Laurell. He grabbed her and pulled her forcefully towards the door. "I can kidnap you or you can tell me if you have another plan," he whispered in her ear.
Ewan pulled Alex into a warm embrace and kissed her head. "Are you alright? Im so sorry. I should've done something in the park. Im sorry. I wont let him hurt you," he rambled on.
Meanwhile, Requiem was recovering.......

Alex shook her head. "Don't apologize, you couldn't do anything. I'm fine," She said softly. She wasn't going to tell him that her arm was hurting her and her neck was throbbing painfully. She just wanted to get out of there. "Can we go, please?" She asked, not wanting to risk Ewan getting hurt by trying to kill Requiem. She wanted to go home and rest with him there. Her plan wasn't to just leave Requiem to recover and try to kill her again, but she wanted them all to be outside before she did something, even Laurell.

Laurell spun as Ewan dived over her to get to Requiem, she started to rush forwards to break the chains but found that he had already done it. she looked at Ewan and Alex and smiled before letting out an ear piercing scream as Hunter crashed through the roof and grabbed her. She picked her choice "Get me out of here" she whispered to hunter, before turning to look back at Requiem, "and do it now hes not going to be down for long" she stated fear tracing a icy finger up her spine. She turned to watch Ewan and Alex so close together relying on each other. "Hunter the suns coming up now" she moaned she cringed against him "I hope this spell holds" she muttered

Hunter nodded and headed out the door. "Come on you two!" he shouted. It was a race. THe sun was coming up and if the spell didnt work, they only had a few minutes to get Laurell inside. Hunter ran at his top speed towards Laurell's house. Ewan would bring Alex there for the rest of the day, just as a precaution. Ewan let go of Alex for a moment, ran at Requiem and kicked him hard in the face, breaking his jaw. Before Requiem could even think of reacting, Ewan had grabbed Alex and was out the door, carrying her to Laurell's. He pressed her hand to his face and smiled. "We'll get you taken care of. Dont worry. You're safe." he said softly.
Hunter crashed through the door, just as the sun came up and set Laurell down on the study couch. Ewan was right behind them. He set Alex down in the study, but held her close, against his chest. Hunter was already busy, looking for medical supplies.
This wasnt the end of Requiem....MUWHAHAHAHA

This wasn't where Alex wanted to be, in Laurell's house. She hadn't seen her dad in twenty-four hours, she was worried about him. "I want to go home." Her voice was soft, muffled against Ewan's chest. She was tired, her eyelids drooping as she spoke, but her body was too alert to let her sleep. The pain wasn't helping her either. She wanted her dad, to see if he was okay, and for him to tell her it would be alright. But she wanted to stay with Ewan, he made her feel safe.
