There's A Shadow Just Behind Me {Syyn+Anastasia}

I'll be silent when I'm dead. For now, I'm gonna be loud; I want the world to hear me.

And so he said it was indeed no fun. She shrugged and watched as he unfolded and let his legs hang over the edge, propping himself up with his arms. She averted her eyes as he glanced at her, and bit her lip slightly, a gesture that meant she was almost nervous. Her gaze rose again when he turned away, and she could've sworn she heard him sigh. Why would he sigh? He was probably bored or something. That had to be it.

She perked up as he began speaking again, of the Main Vempresses that he seemed to detest. She shrugged inwardly. By the way he talked of them, they were probably dead. She almost smiled. He was tough that was for sure. You'd have to be to kill a Main Vampiress; he seemed to have killed three.

As she was pulling back her hair, his hand met hers and guided it behind her ear, and his smile was so...real to say in the least. But after his coal black eyes met her mismatched purple and green ones, his eyes averted, and his hand left hers. She almost wanted to snatch it back...but she restrained herself. He mumbled an apology, and when he did he sounded so...she couldn't think of a word that quite described it.

Before she could stop herself, her own hand reached out and grabbed his. What bad? she said, an almost sort of strange warmness in her tone. You did nothing wrong. she said, in the same warm tone. Then she sort of just sat there, her hand holding his...

And My Frozen Pulse Quickens As The Black Plot Thickens

I crossed her eyes again as she reached out and let her hand grab mine.

'What bad?'

I smirked a little and gripped my fingers around her hand. It was nice, even for two creatures that didn't carry body heat, to be touching someone else. Someone else I actually wanted to touch, not just that insufferable group of vampresses in The Heart. Those females who had actually claimed loyalty to this clan.

'You did nothing wrong.'

I glanced sideways at her with that crooked smile back on my face. Well, I had made a move, and evidently it had succeeded in some manner. But she could leave at anytime. I wouldn't make her stay. I was speechless in a way, unable to make a sound towards her. My dark, kohl wrapped eyes stared out across the city. I tried to remember the last time I had eaten, and to my surprise, couldn't remember, my eyes kept going back to the fact that we were holding hands.

What was wrong with me? I had been with many girls, just for the hell of it. I supposed I had children running around, a few half breeds, many a vampires. But why was this so different?

Morality plays, on stages of sin...

Ana smiled as he smirked at her and gripped his fingers around her hand. It was nice to feel...close to someone for a change. She smoothed out an imaginary wrinkle in her pants with her other hand, something she did out of anxiousness. Syyn was getting to her...it was strange to think they had known each other for such a short time, and yet they were already holding hands. She smiled at the thought and glanced toward the city, and then back again toward Syyn.

Her smile seemed to grow broader as he flashed her that brilliant crooked smile of his. She grinned and looked back out at the city. It was a little dead, but she spotted the few bold humans who dared walk around at night. Two couples, and a little homeless girl and probably her mother. She eyed the young couple that was walking toward them hungrily and then looked to Syyn.

So, how about we test that killing for each other thing? I am a little hungry. What about you? she said, a devilish grin on her face. She had something of a plan on her mind, but she would say nothing of it.

Cold, But I'm Still Here

I fought back blushes when I was convinced I was allowed to continue holding her hand. What the hell was wrong with me? I didn't blush. I didn't act shy. Normally I would have probably raped her with no remorse and then just left. But something tugged at my dead heart when I thought about abusing her in such a manner.

'So, how about we test that killing for each other thing? I am a little hungry. What about you?'

I followed her eyes to the couple and the homeless. The couple seemed like they would be a little more lively, a little more interesting. But the homeless girls would probably be easy. I glanced to her and saw she was looking at the couple as well. That's what was going to happen then.

I nodded.

"My stomach is kind of hungry."

Anastasia
But how long will it take for the cold to defrost?

Anastasia glanced over and stifled a laugh while smiling broadly at his epic attempts at trying to hide a blush. Though her smile softened as she realized he seemed to be in a moral quandry with himself. Twas quite interesting to say in the least.

AS she had spoken her last sentence, she noticed Synn's eyes glance over the potential targets. He almost seemed to linger over the homeless girls, and she guessed he did so because they would robably be easier to take care of, but his stare met her own and glowered over the lovely young couple.

After he nodded and spoke, she attempted to grab him by the hand and make him jump off the side of the building with her, but whether he came with her or not she was going. She rushed down quickly and scrambled up a tall thick tree. The couple hadn't even noticed her, and continued walking, stopping to sit on the bench directly under the tree she had hidden in.

She waited for but a few moments before the couple began to kiss each other, and in one fell swoop she absconded the small, muscular, brunette woman. Before she ahd a chance to cry out, and before her lover had a chance to figure out what was going on, she quickly hooked on to the neck of the young woman and tore out her esophagus as to try and avoid too much bleeding before she could offer her gift to Syyn.

Syyn
Hello, I'm Your Martyr

She seemed to be watching me but in an instant, she tugged softly at my hand and when I looked back at her, she was gone. I peered over the edge and observed her quick movements as she gathered herself in a tree.

I took in a deep breath, filling my pretty much useless lungs to capacity before I set a hand to either side of me on the cold concrete block of the ledge. Both legs dangled over the edge as I pushed myself from its safety and fell towards the ground. The eyes crossed over her dark figure decending on the girl and ripping her throat out.

I cringed and landed gracefully on the ground. Well, the girl was sweet, then her fangs came out. I quickly reached the other, seized him and twirled him around. Taking a step back as he rebalanced himself from me catching him off guard. I stood about a foot away from him, croutched slightly, when he steadied himself, I dove back in, whipping around him and twirling him again, messing with him.

My wicked smirk stayed plastered on my face. This is what I was made for. Not loving. Not feeling. Pure and utter nuisence. A born killer. A shadow creature.
