Been a few days, Katt still recovering, patrols are still shit like always, and the other vampire's are being tough. All and all is well I suppose. In the study I am on the phone again with Jon. I sigh in grief and nod to what he is telling me over the phone. "I understand Jon, yeah no it's fine. Let me know of his condition and when he wakes up. No I promise they won't get involved no matter how much that dimwit mayor wants them to be, as for her...end this at your pace." I hang up and grumble. I slump to my chair and sigh as I grab my notebook. "Cross of Jon and Avery, damn didn't think things were getting bad over there already." Soon I glance at the window to see a few vines growing very rapidly. I get up and simply open the window to wonder who or what was doing that. I look down and to my eyes, a nymph. This Nymph was indeed the most beautiful I have ever seen, black and green surround her dress, as if to symbolize something. She doesn't notice me so, with a calm tone, I yell "Hey, you there. What are you doing." She freezes and tenses up seeing me. She slowly backs away before running away. I sighs and grab my gear chasing after her.
In the woods I can see a bunch of vines and greenery, more than usual, all around me. Chasing after her I yell out again. "Hey wait up, hold on." She just runs and runs. I almost catch up with her before getting shoved to the left of me by something, a vine perhaps? No, nymphs, not just any for it was Guardian Nymphs. I grunt before getting picked up and thrown again. I'm on the ground about the get up with a spear is pointed at me by one of them. A majestic woman, strong obviously, who was at the other end of said weapon. She speaks to me in a authoritative tone.
"Who are you, why is there a human here?"
Holding my hands up I answer by simply showing them the mark given to me by Zane. "Daniel Harris, I'm with the wolves."
The woman nods and the spear is pulled away from my face. "I see, and do you know where the wolves are Mr. Daniel?"
"Yeah, back at the cabin. Why?"
The woman I saw before, the one I was chasing, asks me "Julian, is he there at the house?"
"Well, yeah. Why does he owe you on apology too. Cause I mean I can go get him and-"
"No, I just wanted to see him is all. If he's busy then I can come by later."
"Julian? Busy?" I laugh "Only thing he's ever busy is when he's asleep or out in town or simply waiting for his girlfriend to-Oh wait, your her?"
The girl nods. "I'm guessing he told you, didn't he."
"No Zane did, come on I'll take you back. It's ok I'm a hunter I can protect her from here fellas."
"Next time, don't say your a hunter out loud to people you don't know." The woman with the spear leaves and with that I take the girl back to the cabin. At the cabin Julian and Zane were questioning the vines placement. I simply clear my throat to get their attention and Julian, with a big ole smile, runs toward the girl and the gir; running toward him. The both embrace each other, hugging and a both share a kiss. Julian looks at me before realizing what he needs to do.
"Daniel, this is umm Sally. Sally this is Daniel."
"Umm, oh boy Julian."
"Umm?" Sally looks at him with a disappointed look and is about ready to yell.
"I..sorry I just got so excited that I-"
"UMMM?!?"
"Sorry sorry sorry." Julian, whimpering like a puppy he curls up around Sally, who just laughs it off and strokes his hair. I chuckle along with Zane and we both had the same idea of letting them be. That night we all were outside, except Katt for the reasons already know and Vix for it was night and it's sleepy time. We all talk and joke about things. Matt jokes about how Julian acts like John in ways and both shrug it off before they both go cuddling up to their loved ones. We all laugh before Julian just throws a rock at me. I dodge, laughing as I fall off the log. I chuckle before getting up and seeing that I had one of the note sheets had fallen out of my pocket. I pick it up and open it to read it was the Nymph one. I look at Sally, she looks back at me with a questioning look.
"And what is this?"
"The Jane notes."
She nods and takes it from my hand to read. After a few seconds she just hands it back to me. "Ever heard the story of how she got it?"
"Not really, vague but no."
"Before we had to close our portal, according to the elders, they said she came to them and studied us. When the closing was about to commence, she handed it to us and told us to keep this safe and to only give it to a group we trust. The elders have said that what she wrote is very special. A woman that only wrote it in a language I can't understand."
"That's interesting Sally" said Zane.
"Thanks, so how are things, after what, a year?" We all stayed silent and Sally sighed before speaking again. "Judging from that tone, nothing much. Vampire's still around, oh and speaking of them you mister need to apologize." Julian just grunts. "No, do it, or else you lose fun time." I just chuckle at that statement.
"Sally, can the portal stay open after tonight?"
"Oh yeah, it's just that since we agreed on only opening it once a year and that this is the first time we have it open in that year, the portal is staying open for a week or two. A special event really, why do you ask?"
"Sally, we need help. Badly." Zane said getting up to talk with her. "The rouge vampire's are getting stronger, an old threat is haunting over us, and Katt is in shambles."
"I see...you know the elders will refuse to help."
"Not unless I can help" said John, standing up. "I owe them something anyways, something I...I regret taking."
"What's that?" I look at John confused?
"Ah, the elders told me about you, so you do have it?"
"Yes, yes I do."
"Have what."
"The Lemintus."
