Memories

[laurell]

Laurell sat on the edge of the river, her chin on her knees, the dark night cool and quiet around her, her eyes watched the ripples spread as she tossed yet another stone from the small pile beside her into the still water, a small smile on her lips. She had a feeling of returning home , but where was home? She couldnt remember anything much at all, not since the fire, she was lucky to remember her name. A fire, laurell shuddered as she remembered the feel of flames on her skin, seering at the cold flesh, she stared down at her soft hands, no signs of scars left, her Vampiric powers enabling her to heal quickly and seemlessly, leaving no sign of the heat she had endured.. all she could remember was the pain. Laurell closed her eyes and leant back on her hands urging her mind to remember what it could but all she could remember were the last 6 months, nothing before then, only a hollow empty feeling of loss. She opned her eyes and stared at the cold moon above her, its gentle reflection cooling to her skin. If only she could remember

[spring]

Spring wandered through the forest, her sisters, Sage and Sparrow, trailing lazily behind her, they had only just fed and something had attracted the young hybrid to this place, the triplets moved in silence, Springs mind jolted wth memories of when she was just a vampire, her sisters already being hybrids having been so since birth, spring however was just a vampire, she remembered a lady, one who helped her through a time when her family abandoned her, she spotted a shadowy figure throwing rocks into the river, a small smile crept over her lips and she waited for her siblings before moving behind a bush, it rustled gently as they stood behind it.

"Hello" said an unfamiliar voice from behind. Walking through the forest and to the river, Ewan had noticed a young woman sitting at the edge. Something seemed to both her but Ewan couldnt pin point the problem. By why would he be able to? He had never seen the girl in his life. But something was telling him that she had a dark past, something inside him was warning him about her. "You like sitting alone in Sleepy Hollow, thats kinda....odd"

[sypher]

Sypher flew the skyes since his body had change his mind was fixed in one thing only: Power.
He landed near a river, his big wings roled around his bodie like an overcoat, his face gained a more human like shape and color as his hands and feet did the same "Ah... there is nothing better than nightfall." he said as he walked slowly driven by ssome strange smell. He spoted some one, a girl near the river... a good meal perhapes but he could only be careful he stayed silent watching

[laurell]

Laurells head jerked up as she heard the voice behind her, she swung her eyes towards the bushes as they rustled before turning back to the guy who had spoken. 'ummm yeah hi' she mumbled her eyes never leaving his, she slowly stood up brushing stray bits of dirt and dust from her skirt, the burnt and tattered ends fallping about her legs, she smiled shyly at the guy before blushing and lowering her eyes. 'Is that what this place is called?' she asked her voice soft like a whisper, she looked round her at the moonlit river before turning abck and smiling again. 'i suppose i like it... do i?' she wondered softly

[hunter]

"Ya, not really safe to be in Sleepy Hollow at all really." he said, giving off a friendly smile. "Youve never been here before? Something tells me ive seen you before....." his voice becoming softer with ever word. He wouldnt tell her about his incident with the werewolf, because it might scare her off. But maybe that werewolf that bit him, gave off some memories or something. "So....if you are knew, where are you from?" he asked

[spring]

Spring wandered out from behind the bush, the other two following her, the three hybrid children looked at Ewan "we meet again" Sage whispered gently nodding ehr head to him and smiling nastily. Spring looked at the woman before ehr "I remember you, You're Laurell" she said softly studying her.

[laurell]

Laurell looked confused as the guy spoke, she searched the ground around her unsure of where she was or what she was even doing here. 'no not new, at least i dont think im new, i kinda remember places.' she looked up at him hopefully. 'I think im from here but...' she let her voice trail off as 3 young girls emerged from the bushes, laurell backed slowly away from them until her feet entered the edge of the water. She half smiled as one of the girl spoke. ' yeah im laurell... who are you?' she asked softly her eyes darting from the guy to the 3 girls

[spring]

Springs head tilted to one side "Spring" she said "you used to look after me when that Sypher person was around" she frowned a little "this is Sparrow and Sage, my sisters" she looked at the woman who had looked after her "do you not remember me Laurell?"

[hunter]

"Hmmm yes....the three little amigos. I remember you from Nicole and Claires place. You really shouldnt be out at this time. But hey, dont listen to me." Hearing the young girl say the name Laurell made Ewan flash back.He still didnt know exactly who she was, but it showed her as a vampire? 'No way' he thought. Suddenly the name Hunter appeared in his thoughts. "Umm did you know a Hunter? And......and an Emma? I think thats the name...."

[laurell]

Laurell looked at them all confused her face slowly crumpling as she fought back tears, 'i dont remember' she stated softly putting her hand to her head, she looked up at the others hope flashing in her eyes. 'Spring?' she asked softly, an image flashing into her mind of soft curls and gentle smiles only to be replaced by the constant screaming she remembered now. Laurell turned to the guy. 'Hunter? emma?' she asked softly faces flashing suddenly in her mind only to be chased away again, 'I dont... Im not sure' she stumbled over the words

[spring]

"Calm down" Spring said taking Laurells hand gently "it'll come back give it time, you was like my mommy 'cause my mommy didn't want me 'cause i was just a vampr but now I'm a hybrid like my sisters" she smiled and looked up at her elder "i have missed you Laurell" she said smiltly, her golden curls bouncy gently as she bounced on the balls of her feet.
The three children looked at Ewan "We can look after ourselves, unlike you we cna control our changes and hunger" they grinned identicle grins and giggled.

[hunter]

Something still wasnt right. "So your not new here, you just cant remember? You cant remember the name Hunter or Emma?" he asked, trying to push it into her head. 'Maybe these people have the answers'. "Ive got to find them. If you cant tell me who they are, I have to find them myself...." Looknig down atthe three girls, he wondered where the fourth was. "Hey wheres your friend Claire?"

[laurell]

laurell looked at the girl names Spring and tried to smile, but her head just replayed the screams the terrible screams, she shuddered before turning back to the guy, he said the two names again and visions flashed before her eyes making her stumble backwards again her feet disappearing into the cold river up to her ankles, fear crossed her eyes at a vision of blood and pain a guy screaming at herto stop, her hand slicing into his cheek removing skin. laurell shuddered her eyes wide. 'Hunter!' she whispered the memories starting to flood her mind

[spring]

"Shh" Spring said leading the trouble Laurell out from the cold water, Sparrow and Sage wandered off, probably going home, Spring didn't care right then "Claire couldn't come out and play, Nicole wouldn't let her" She said boredly glaring at Ewan for making Laurell aggitated about Hunter "I remember Hunter, he was injured alot and often was with the slayer and that Emma girl" Spring stroked Laurells hair and smiled gently "I missed you" she mumbled gently, golden curls bouncing about her pale pale shoulders.
