'Dont Laurell. He doesnt know what he's doing. He's just upset. Please Laurell!' said a small voice that only Laurell could hear. Ewan gave a low growl and lunged forward, ignoring the pain all throughout his body. The bones were cracking back into place, and the skin was healing slowly. He grabbed her head and bashed it into the tree. He looked around the forest, trying to find Alex when he spotted a motionless, body. He rushed to her side and wrapped his arms around her, on the verge of tears. Her heart beat was so faint, Ewan thought that he'd lost her. "Alex.......wake up....please. If you dont, ill break the promise I made to you. I wont fight any longer. I wont be able to. I need you! Wake up, please!"
Requiem turned and glared at Sam. "Is someone jealous?" THen he noticed that Alex had 'no' heartbeat. His eyes widened in shock. "How dare you! You killed the slayer?!?" Requiem was slowly heading towards Sam, a look of pure hatred on his face. He was planning on hurting her....badly.

Laurell faltered as a small voice broke through her anger, she shook her head trying to rid herself of its annoying buzz, but that was a bad move. She felt Ewans strength return as he grabbed her head, Laurell growled and struggled but it was not enough, she groaned as her head smashed into the tree, and she slithered down it watching through dazed eyes as Ewan rushed to Alex. Laurell moaned in pain as she struggled to stand, the small voice she had heard worried her. she knew that voice anywhere... Hunter.
Laurell looked over to where Requiem was screaming at Sam... what the hell had happened, the slayer was laid out with Ewan crouched over her. She wasnt dead was she? she couldnt be.....

"I did what you were too weak to do! You act like the big, bad vamp but really, you're just a good puppeteer. What you fail to realize is you aren't in control anymore. So go ahead and try to attack me, I'm twice as strong as you and with slayer blood running through my veins. I might get hurt, but I can assure you that you will come out worse." Samantha's words were harsh, her voice stern, but they also spoke truth. Requiem would hurt her but at a terrible price to himself. It would be wise for him to wait to attack her until her powers died down some.
Out of the corner of her eyes she could see Ewan frantically trying to wake Alex up. "She's not dead but I would get her out of here before she's gone," she whispered to Ewan so only he could hear. Her lips hardly moved so it looked as if she didn't speak at all.
"I was a fool to not do what Laurell was doing. Now that I took her actions into mind I see she was smart for going over to the dogs. I'd rather take their orders then yours Requiem. You've annoyed me for the last time."

Requiem straightened up and grinned evily. "Wow, you've really surprised me Sam. I didnt think you had it in you. You're right. You're more powerful than I could ever hope to be. You took the the slayer......which was something I didnt think possible." Requiem was going to put his skills to the test. Who needs strength when you have the power of persuasion. "Sam, you have bested me. You are the true master then?" he asked, bowing at her feet.
"I know she's not dead yet!" Ewan growled back. He kissed her cheek and lips, a desperate kiss. "Please wake up. Alex....." Ewan picked her up in his arms and sprinted to the church. He burst through the church doors and set her down on the pillows of the kneeling rail. He brushed the hair away from her face, his face twisted in pain and sadness. "Wake up, for me. Dont die.....I love you."

Laurell watched as Requiem spoke to Sam before bowing to her, her eyes glowed softly as she got to her knees, she shook her head trying to clear the memory the voice had stirred up, she glared over at Ewan cradling Alex's body against him, she bit her lip. Did she feel sorry for the dog? NO!!! she didnt feel sorry for him, he hadnt trusted her when he had the chance he had brought this on all himself. She scrambled to her feet and walked towards the crowd, the first drops of rain starting to fall from the heavy sky above... She tilted her head to the sky and let the rain fall into her eyes, it had been Hunter she had heard, she was sure of it...... With a small growl deep in her chest she looked again at Ewan crouched there with his slayer, The girl wasnt dead... she could sense it.

Sam rolled her eyes and glared down at Requiem. "There's a new head vamp in town. You have two choices, either admit your defeat, or prepared to die. And don't try any of that innocent crap," She paused and picked Requiem up by his throat. She made him look her in the eyes, their faces inches apart. "I'm not stupid. You'll have to do better then bowing and complimenting me if you want to make me fall for it." She grinned, letting Requiem drop to the ground.
Alex wasn't moving, her face was pale and she was starting to get cold. Kris and Alex's dad saw Ewan and ran into the church. Kris bit her lip and ran over to Ewan. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry, this is my fault! I tried to get her to stay." She felt guilty and being able to sense Alex's body call to her made her feel worse.
"What should we do? Hospital? Or should I just steal some supplies?" She asked Ewan. She knew what to do if he wanted to bring Alex back to her house. All Kris needed was some blood bags, a needle, and some bandages, but she wasn't sure if Ewan would trust her enough to do that. It would be hard to sneak Ewan in to see Alex if they brought her to the hospital though because their security had tightened up dramatically since the last time they were there.

Ewan stroked her hair and caressed her cheek, glancing up at Kris. "Whatever will save her. Even if I cant visit her for weeks or months, I need to know that she's alive and well. I can carry her to the hospital, but I wont be able to go inside. Whatever.....is best for her." Ewan didnt take the time to wait for an answer. Without anymore hesitation, he rushed out of the church, Alex in his arms and flew through the forests. After a few minutes, they were at the front doors and Ewan decided to take a chance. He walked through the front doors. As soon as he was at the front desk, security was all over him. "Please, I just need to get her in," It took a while to convince them, but they finally put her on a stretcher and wheeled her away. Ewan was tazered and thrown outside. "Please be alright," he whispered, getting up and brushing himself off.
Requiem nodded and his face went blank. He wasnt grinning anymore. He was dead serious. "You are my master and I will follow you. The strongest vampire should always rule. I know when im number two. Any orders master?" he asked, rubbing his throat. He glanced over at Laurell and smirked. "Will Laurell be joining your ranks?"

Laurell sat silently watching proceedings, she had seen Ewan take Alex off somewhere, and was trying to figure out where, Her fight with him was far from over, if he hadnt attacked her she would have left quietly after te proceedings and he wouldnt have had to see her again.. as it stood now she was out for his blood. She heard Requiem speak her name and spun her head to look at him and Sam, it seemed as if he was gambling with her life and that displeased her even more. She forced a smile to her lips before turning her head again to the direction Ewan had run. The fight was far from over and whether it lead to her death then so be it.

"If she pleases. I know better then to force Laurell to do anything." Samantha glanced at Laurell, fully aware of who she was looking for. Laurell was out for Ewan, how odd she thought. "It's just a puppy. She could play with it whenever she wanted." That is if she came with Sam.
The doctors took Alex and gave her a couple of blood transfusions. The doctors were amazed at how fast she was healing. Her heart beat never wavered and her body took the new blood as if it was her own. Her breathing grew steadier as more blood entered her veins. Her skin was turning back to the deep ivory color it was, now the bandage on her neck stood out.
Kris teleported Alex's father to the hospital where they saw Ewan waiting outside. Her father told Kris to wait out with Ewan while he went in. He had a dark expression on his face, he clearly was in a bad mood. He talked to the doctors and made arrangements for Alex to be transferred home with a nurse to come check on her until she was fully healed.
Kris walked over to Ewan. "What happened Ewan?" She asked, referring to the fight that went on in the forest.

Ewan was muttering curse words under his breath when Kris and Mr. Cramer arrived. "The vamps came....I thought it was only going to be Laurell. I would've had the upper hand. Then, Sam came and then Requiem. They outnumbered us and I didnt have a chance. They were just playing with their food. Then......she came. Its not your fault.....im sure you tried. I wish she'd listen to me. I told her specifically not to come. I hope she's alright."
Requiem stood up and wandered the area until he was next to Laurell. "Go on then. Find the pup and kill it. If it wasnt for him, we would've had the slayer." Requiem spoke as softly as possible, so that Sam couldnt hear. "Well, my master, what shall we do?" he said, walking back over to Sam.

Laurell glanced up as requiem approached and nodded slowly her eyes shining in delight, she turned to Sam and lowered her head in respect before giggling and blurring off into the trees, following Ewans scent. She soon made it to the hospital grounds and stopped dead, her eyes closed, her mind searching for the scent she wanted.... There... She cloaked herself in shadows and watched as the death girl approached him. Laurell snarled the anger still coursing through her veins, all she needed was for him to be alone

Samantha growled and rolled her eyes. She wasn't stupid and knew Requiem was doing something behind her back. Just because she couldn't hear what he was saying didn't mean she couldn't guess. She picked up the steak that Alex had dropped and walked over to Requiem. She jammed it into his chest, inches from his heart. "Next time I see you do something I don't like, I'll make sure I don't miss." She whispered into his ear and started to walk out of the forest.
Kris could sense someone there and it made her nervous. "Would you really have stayed behind if she was the one shouting for you to go away?" She pointed out. She rubbed her eyes with her thumb and pointer finger, not really prepared for fighting this early in her return. It was bad enough that Hunter had died. [[OOC: I MISS HIM!]]
Mr. Cramer walked out of the hospital and over to Kris and Ewan. "The doctors said she's healing fast and that if she continues to do well, we can transfer her later this evening or early tomorrow. Have you been training with her?" He asked Ewan curiously. He was surprised that she was healing as fast as the doctors had said.

"We've just been on patrol mainly. She's highly skilled. She doesn't really need my help sir. But obviously....I need hers." Ewan couldnt wait until they transfered her to her house. Atleast he'd get to sit by her bedside and make sure she was alright. "Well, thank goodness---" just then, the wind blew past him and he caught the scent of his enemy. He turned around quickly, realizing which direction the smell was coming from. He turned towards Kris and growled. "She's here. She's come to torment me further. What more can she take from me?" Ewan wanted to stay and fight, but he was sure that Kris wouldnt let him stay alone. SHe was too caring (ooc:Right? Right?!?!)
Requiem gasped as the stake plunged deep into his chest. It was so close to the heart. A little too close. "Whatever you say Sam. I wont fail you again," He gulped and pulled on the stake until it finally wrenched free. Requiem wanted to growl and pounce, but he knew that Sam was much more powerful.

Laurell drifted slowly, circling the group outside the hospital, her cloak of shadows was definatly coming in handy now. Using her speed she moved closer to Ewan giggling lightly and softly the air hardly moving, before retreating to a safe distance again. she heard his words and breathed her reply into the winds.. "Your mind, your soul, your life" her voice traveling like the wind round the group. She settled silently in one place, to watch the expressions on their faces and listen to their conversation... so the slayer was going to be moved. Laurell grinned before moving off again her cirlce widening and then disappearing as she approached the back of the hospital grounds, she closed her eyes and sent out her feelers... Finding the slayers room she scaled the walls before slipping through the window her cloak still tight round her... the rose she had bought for Hunter clasped in one hand. with a small evil smile she placed the rose in the slayers hand and misted from the room

Samantha found herself walking around town. She needed some loyal companions, she needed a mate. She wasn't entirely sure how to get one though. Would she have to make one? Would she find one? It annoyed her. In the beginning she wanted to be with Requiem, but as his obsession grew, she found herself wanting to shut him up.
Kris rolled her eyes as Laurell's voice echoed to them as if the wind carried it. She was ready to fight if needed. She needed to learn how. "I should ask Ewan and Alex to show me." They were the best fighters she knew.
Mr. Cramer ignored the whispers and turned to Ewan. "Well, thank you for bringing her here. Every time she gets hurt I worry. If I could get her away from this I would."
