Rachael was enjoying playing with him as was about to go for it all when he suddenly pushed her away from him. She watched shocked as he zipped himself back up and button up his shirt. Her eyes moved from his shaking hands to now punches a wall. She was confused and wanted to walk over to him but sent her away. How she wanted to protest and take him but she wasn't strong enough. At least not yet she wasn't. So by his demand she walked out of the room into the bathroom. She did look like a mess. So cleaning herself up she then looked little more like her sister being all cleaned up. Then she walked out and went to the fridge. She grabbed a bottle of blood and wondered how he got human blood. As she opened the lid her thoughts drifted as she smelled the fresh blood and began to drink it down. When that was gone she took out another and popped the lid off and walked back into the bedroom to find Asim standing in from of a row of weapons.
"Everything ok?" She asked softly hoping he would be ok. She took another sip and closed her eyes as the fresh blood ran down her throat. So good, she thought. Then looking back at him she smiled softly and waited for him to speak.

Zero saluted at Shadow, an evil grin on his face, then dematerialized. The door to the bedroom shattered, revealing several Vampires standing outside, looking eager to capture the female that was half-naked. Very eager indeed...positively salivating... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What? Pain...definitely there...hurt so much...
"Who...are you..." Qalyur rasped from a torn and bleeding mouth. "What...where..."
"All your questions will be answered in due course, I can assure you." came a sleek bass voice.
The figure walked out from the shadows, revealing himself. A zero was imprinted on his forehead, and suddenly he remembered. This Vampire had knocked him out with ease when he had come to kill Qalyur's family...then he remembered...
Hazy...very hazy...then-"Qalyur! Help us!" the cry wrenched at his heart, making him ache. Rising to his elbows, he watched his wife and daughter surrounded by Zero's henchmen, who were playing with them like a sick game of cat-and-mouse.
"No!" he tried to get up, but the poison was too strong. He slumped to the ground, and could only stare in fascinated horror as they ripped Helen apart, gore flying in meters in all directions. Then...then next was little Sylvia. She was only eight. Zero himself bit into her neck, spraying blood everywhere. His evil laughter echoed throughout the valley, scaring the wildlife for miles around. They came for him next. He had put a major dent in the bloodsucker's community, and they wanted revenge. Pulling himself up, he managed to roll himself to the cliffs edge. They grabbed his leg, but the ledge crumbled, sending Qalyur and two other vamps down into the dark water some thousand feet away.
The vamps were killed instantly, one impaled on a stalagmite-like formation, the other splattering his brains on a coral formation. But Qalyur survived. Drifting...drifting...darkness...
"YOU!" Qalyur roared, trying to leap at the Zero. But his limbs were all shackled to the walls, so that he was strung up, unable to touch the ground and gain momentum to shatter the titanium links.
"Oh yes." Zero said coyly, smiling wickedly. "Me. Me, me...me. Or I if you prefer." Zero stalked back and forth, examining the Dhampir. A beautiful vampire walked into the room, and through his haze of rage even Qalyur could see that. She coiled up to Zero, nuzzling him like a cat. Her curves, and face reminded him...no...what? Shadow??
"Ah," Zero said, obviously seeing Qalyur's confusion. "I see that you have met Miss Ashley, one of my favorite...companions." The way he said it implied it was more pleasure-slave than companion. "But, I simply must introduce you to my other companion. She has been with me far longer than Ashley here, but both have my equal...affection."
A Vampire clearly far older than Ashley, likely by many centuries, danced in to the room. She slimmed up to Zero as well, and he gently stroked her hair...her scarlet hair... "Meet Miss Sylvia. I believe that you have been acquainted before, but haven't seen each other for some...800 years, I would say..."
Qalyur looked impossibly at his daughter and Shadow's as they each sauntered out of the cell, both seeming no older than 25 physically.
"You..." Qalyur shook with exhaustion and fury. "I will KILL YOU! DO YOU HEAR ME! I WILL-" but his screams of anger were cut short as the chains lit up, and he was filled with indescribably pain. He tried to yell, but couldn't. It stopped after perhaps ten minutes...probably longer. Trying to reach out...Shadow...help...
Then he fell. The abyss loomed, and engulfed him. He had no way of knowing whether or not Shadow had heard him...but it was worth a try. Slumping, held aloft by the chains, a single tear fell from his face...and splashed noiselessly onto the hard stone floor. Zero's laughter echoed throughout the building, but Qalyur could not hear it...thankfully...

Shadow eyes wided as she watched vampires come bursting threw the door. 'Impossible' she thought. They werent aloud in without her...but it had be destroyed. She jumped up to her feet pulling her pants on but unable to throw on a shirt she began to fight. The anger and hate of seeing Zero was driving her to the point of being taken to him. Then she heard him. Qalyur voice. Unable to realize if he was screaming or if they had connected she wasn't sure but she just knew she had to get to him. How? 'Just keep fighting' she told herself. Then thinking of Asim. God she needed to get to him. Looking around she realized she could get out. The closet. Her secert passage.
She killed one right after another but a few got a bit in, one on her hand another on her arm and another on her leg but it wasnt slowing her down. Their was no way in hell she was going to face that monster...not yet. As she killed the last one more began to rush up the stairs towards her. She grabbed her shirt and headed for the closet in her bedroom. Once their, she pulled on a hanger and a door opened. She then disappeared inside as the door closed tightly behind her. She began to run as faster as she could knowing where this tunnel will lead her, she was just hoping Asim would still be their when she got their.
(OOC: I like the way you play Zero but just keep in mind he is my character. He is hear because Shadow found true happiness again and wants to destroy it. He has never stopped being fixed on her and never wants to stop. Btw, it would be interesting if he didn't know yet Asim and Qalyur were father and son. Not until they all meet in the same place. Very curious how things will play out.)

"Not exactly." Asim answered her. By now he had strapped a pair of katana blades to his back before putting on a leather jacket. Then he went through the motions of securing some other knives and curved daggers about his person. He didn't wear anything in the way of armour, he relied on speed and acrobatics to get him through a fight. The only reason Qalyur had managed to drop him in their earlier encounter was because he had left himself open to attack. Not a mistake he intended to make twice. Satisfied he was armed enough to deal with whatever was thrown at him from his son or Zero (if the older vampire was involved) he turned to face Rachel. SHe had adjusted very well to becoming a vampire, much better than most. She was stronger than he gave her credit. "I think your sister is in trouble. I can't quite figure it all out yet but I have a feeling an old 'friend' of ours is involved." He headed towards a back room that had an entrance to the tunnels beneath Red Blood City. He could feel Shadow's presence down there like a flickering candle in a dark room. He opened the secret door and paused at the entrance. "Stay here. Anyone tries to come through this door and you don't know them. Kill 'em." He turned and was gone into the darkness...
It didn't take Asim long to find her. He heard and saw her before she even noticed him and blocked her path. He made her jump and grabbed her shoulders to stop her from trying to dash his brains out. "Hey It's me." He hoped that in the weak light she would recognise his voice if not his face. "What happened? Is it Zero?" He noticed she was half naked and quickly shrugged out of his jacket. He put it around her shoulders. "What the f**k is going on Shadow?"

Shadow kept running as she heard something and was about to swing when she heard Asim voice. Focusing better she could see a little bit of his face. She threw herself in his arms as he put his jacket around her. "Oh, god Asim. It is Zero. He...oh god." She began to cry. The pain from the other vampire bits were getting to her and she felt sticky with hers plus still a little of Qalyur's blood on her too. "He...he shot a spear or claw or something threw my window and..." the memory of his blood exploding onto her face and his eyes just wide staring down at her was still strong. She shook but tried to keep her voice steady which right now wasn't easy. "It blasted threw Qalyur chest and went out the window. Zero...he was at the end of it just smiling at me. Luckly I brought free of his gaze to grab my clothes but only got my pants on when the vampires come busting down my door. I fought Asim. God I fought for my life. I didn't want to see him." She closed her eyes as she still shook. "A few bit me but didn't get a chance to drink but they are kind of deep. The other blood is Qalyur." She then pulled back and looked into his eyes. "We must save him Asim. I know what you smell and what you think. I am sorry but I owned him as the favor but he is still your son dammit and no one should die at the hands of that pyshco." She hoped that last part would make the most sense. IF he was indeed wanting to kill his son then he would help stop Zero. Then Shadow fell to her knees. "I am feeling a little dizzy." The blood lose was becoming great if he didn't get it to stop soon she was going to pass out and that is another thing Shadow feared. 'What if he can still enter my dreams' she thought. God don't fall asleep. She looked up at Asim as forced a smile. "I love you," she whispered, "Always have and always will." She fell back but was forcing herself with every beam of her to stay awake.
..........
Rachael stood their angery he didnt want her to come along but she would stay. The blood raced threw her. God she was ready to test out her speed and strength against another vampire. She wanted to break a spin. All this came from the ideas of that man so many years ago. How she wondered if she was still see him again now a child of darkness. It made her so happy. She would however try to follow her sisters wishes to a point but she wasn't going to hold back. Not for anything against another. She would keep her sister safe after all it was her fault and yet her gift to save her so she would do whatever she could to protect her. That is what family to them was all about and she would at least keep true to that.

Zero was standing, arms clasped behind his back as he stared out into the city. One of his assistants walked into the room, and Zero could tell that he had bad news.
"My lord-" "She got away, didn't she?" "Yes. A secret passage that we did not know about...she escaped through it. The remaining men pulled back, as it could be a trap." "Indeed." Zero sighed heavily. "This was to be expected, of course." "Yes, my lord." Zero pondered for a moment. "Send Ashley. Tell her to take Shadow alive." "As you wish." "Oh, and send Sylvia up to me. I am need of some...service." "Your will be done." "Yes...it will, won't it?"
Having no answer, the other vampire retreated from the room. Sylvia entered the room, and bowed low. Her ravishing form was one of the reasons he had chosen her, as he had Ashley. But they were equal parts spy, killing machine, and seductress. Oh, how he loved them...or rather, favored them. Love was too strong a word for the psychotic vampire, his heart having stopped beating long ago.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ashley stalked down through the secret passageway, having found the switch several minutes ago. She could smell the blood, and see it in some places. In one such spot, she noticed that the tracks of another creature met up with Shadow - a vampire, the scent not lying. It had to have been at least ten minutes old. She would stay hidden, and strike at the opportune time. There, the entrance to the unknown vampire's dwelling. She crept in, sneaking by the clueless female vampire guarding the door, and managed to creep into the banisters on the ceiling. She would capture Shadow, and perhaps Zero would let her have the handsome male vampire for her own amusement...

(OOC: this Ashley and Sylvia duo sound brill lol Every teenage fantasy rolled into one... or two as the case may be)
"Ssh, None of that matters now," Asim said to Shadow as he sat on the tunnel floor with her on his lap. His arms around her. He rocked her back and forth slightly to try and sooth her, he could feel her blood running down his front and pooling around them. When she told him she loved him he bit his lip with his fangs "I love y--" Then she passed out. "SHadow! Hold on!" With a grunt he got to his feet and held the woman in his arms as he started back up the tunnel.
Asim kicked the door open to his apartment with Faint Shadow in his arms. "It's me, Rache." He said quickly as his newly sired companion made ready to strike. He saw the look of alarm on her face. "She's been hurt, not too badly but she's losing a lot of blood." He put the weakened human on the bed and took his jacket off her to inspect her wounds. They looked severe, but nothing that couldn't be healed. She would probably carry the scars of this night the rest of her life.
Asim told Rachel to watch the tunnel entrance as he helped Faint Shadow. He applied bindings to her wounds as quickly as he could using makeshift bandages from strips of cloth he tore from the bed sheet. "Don't you dare die on me." He muttered and drew one of his knives. Even if Shadow loved Qalyur and chose to live out her mortal life with him, Asim would save her. His son could offer her what he could not... after all the dampire had a pulse. Asim ran the blade of his knife over his palm and cupped his hand as he let his blood drip into Shadow's mouth. Feeding from him wouldn't turn her as he hadn't just fed from her and she hadn't been drained enough for that, but from their connection it should help heal her, give her an adrenalin rush that will make her stronger for a while.
Removing his hand from her mouth, Asim pulled a chair over and sat beside her. He held her hand and watched her sleep, hoping that she would pull through. Staring at her he sensed something within her... something strange and barely perceiveable... was Shadow... pregnant?!? He couldn't be sure and decided now wasn't the time to obsess over it. Right now he had to think about getting rid of Zero... again. They had come to a mutual understanding before... they had even become a twisted sort of friends.
Asim suddenly sensed something else. Something different about the air, like a faint whif of fine perfume. He frowned and started feeling like he was being watched. He even reached for his kinfe but a sudden whimper from Faint Shadow made him abandon the idea. He forgot about everything but her and dropped his guard down. He grabbed her hand in his and just watched her... hoping she would recover...

(OOC: Yeah, I know! It'll be really fun too. By the way, here is what I envision Sylvia and Ashley to look like, except that Ashley would have black hair. Please give me some credit here, Scarlett Johansson is the only decent girl in a ninja suit I could find) Ashley stared at Asim and Shadow, formulating a plan of attack. Ah, there...perfect. His guard was down. She straitened her one-piece matte-black suit, and crawled up to the perfect place to drop down on Asim. She readied herself, and dropped. She collided with Asim, knocking him to the floor. She wrapped her arms around his chest and arms, her legs around his knees, and squeezed.

(OOC: well, she voices one of the characters in the spongebob movie... so she is probably the coolest chick in the world.)
Asim sensed movement from above him and tried to turn... too late. Someone wrapped themselves around him from behind, knocked him to the floor and squeezed him tightly. "Gargh..." He somehow got to his feet and tried to twist and turn his body to throw the attacker off but She had too good a hold of him. They sent the lamp crashing to the floor and he knocked over a chair as he stumbled about the room. He slammed backwards into the wall and heard the woman on him grunt. He slammed again and heard the plaster crack behind them... but still he couldn't shift her. He dropped to his knees and felt his head hurting from the pressure of her embrace.
"Rachel!" He gasped, trying to shout. "Get Shadow out of here!"

Rachel stood by the door watching and listening. God her sister's blood smelled good but she protect her at all cost. Suddenly she heard Asim shout at her. She turned and hist at the female vampire. Not listening to his words she rushed over to them but the female in one quick move jumped in the air kicking Rachel in the chest making her fly back to the ground while still holding a grip on Asim. They then turned to Shadow who was standing by Asim open weapons chest with a bow pointing it at the female. Her anger rose keeping her hand steady as she pointed it at her. "Let him go."
Her voice was steady with a hit of rage as she was ready to fire. "Let him go and leave. I will NOT be dragged to him. Soon I know I will see him but I am not ready. Be a good little lap dog and go replay that message because you aren't taking me alive."
Threw her passing out she fought hard. Their was no way she was going to remain sleep. Not knowing if they still had a connection. With seeing that womans face she popped up as Rachel was helping to distrack them which gave her a chance to get up to grab two cross bows with wooden steaks on them to fire at her if needed. Their was no way she was going back and she was making it known and hoping she would take the hint.

The slams against the wall did not deter Ashley in the slightest, and when Asim paused, she squeezed hard. Bones broke, and the other vampire was driven to his knees, then the floor. Just then, Shadow had a bow trained on Ashley, and the assassin could tell that she wouldn't miss.
Ashley slowly unwrapped Asim and stood, hands in the air. Shuriken spun from her hands, seemingly out of nowhere, and struck Shadow in the shoulder. They didn't do much damage (only a d2 according to d&d), but distracted Shadow long enough for Ashley to launch herself through a wall and into an old tunnel. She left a cleverly concealed stun mine behind her as she zoomed along the concrete, masonary crumbling from the 'Ashley' sized hole in the wall.

Asim stared after the female vampire's departure. He knew that immediate pursuit was not a good idea. Things didn't usually attack only to run off without wanting to lead their victim into a trap. Asim cracked his neck and exhaled sharply. Good job he didn't actually breathe otherwise he'd have been in trouble then. Under different circumstances, he would have enjoyed that.
Asim looked over at Faint Shadow. Even in her wounded state she looked ever the intimidating figure. For a human she was amazingly strong and resiliant. He could tell why he had always been so attracted to her. He was by her side in seconds and getting her to lower the weapons and sit down. "Take it easy Shadow, you don't want to tear those wounds." He turned to see Shadow's sister returning from the other room. "You okay? That vampire was powerful. A kick like that would have snapped a human in two."
Turning back to Shadow he sighed. "Okay... what has been going on?"

Shadow's expression never changed. She held her ground strong, along with her hand as she pointed it at the female. Her words, she knew, cut deep for her as it made her slowly release Asim. Then the female did a quick action of hitting Shadow in the shoulder. It threw her off for just a second but she followed the vampire and fired hitting the wall just to the side of the hole where the vampire disappeared too. She then held up the other and kept it aimed on the hole in hoping she would show herself but then Asim was by her side softly talking to her. He lowed her hand as then Shadow broke her vision away from the hole to look at Asim. She then fell to her knees. He helped her to her feet and sat her down on the bed. 'God, please don't let them take me,' she thought to herself. 'Oh god please no.'
......................
Rachael came walking into the room. She might had one or two broken ribs but they would heal. Looking up at Asim she said, "I'm fine. I will heal fast. Not a human anymore, remember?" As a human she was much weaker then her siser. Not the golden child either but her sister never made her feel less important even though Shadow was the stronger, faster, wise, and loving of the two of them. But now she had a chance to repay her for all the things she helped her with in the past. To help her against this evil vampire that was causing so much heartache and pain. She was here for her family.
..........
As Asim turned back to her Shadow looked up into his eyes. She closed them a moment to replay the horrorable moment in her head. Opening them again she locked her eyes with his. "Zero has been keeping an eye on me I think threw my dreams. Remember the last time we delt with him." She was sure he did so she conutined. "Before you came in he wanted me to be his, he wanted me in a coma. To never wake up but you broke that. He swore I could never have any happiness after you. Sense you left I've been afraid to open up to anyone because if I had he would take them from me."
She then looked down breaking their eye contact. "Then you came along again and my heart sang. I think he knew, like he felt it and felt the need to check it out. As he did I wasn't with you. I was with Qalyur so he took him from me. He shot a huge melt claw looking bow right threw my window and threw his chest. He then disappeared out the window. I watched in horror as I saw him on the other side laying next to Zero." She wanted to cry but she held her tears back. This was not the time to show weakness. Not after they were so into killing one another.
She then looked up at him. Their eyes locked in place. "I want to get him back Asim. Even if you hate one another he is still your son. I'd do anything for mine to keep them." She waved her hand towards her sister. "As you can see. I wish you could too." She then took his hands in hers. "Please Asim. I can't let him die on account of me. No one should ever die that I care for by Zero's hand. No one. Please my love. Help me."
............
A shadow figure stood in the shadows of an appartment buidling across the street from them. He had followed the scent of her blood until this spot so he would sit and wait to see if anyone would show their faces. Maybe they would and maybe not. If not he could always catch up with them again. So sitting on the bed looking out the window he turned and began to move his hand up word on a girls thigh. The red hed shettered at the man's touch.
"Shhh," he whispered. "Don't want to hurt you."
The blood on his shirt was dry now but the screams still echoed in the air. How he loved torturing people but thinking that this had gone to far with Zero. Their game had to end. He had met him back then as the vampire stood over his body. It all went black until this moment. When he had smelled her blood again all the memories came flooding back. So, now he was back to take his life back and to become top dog of his family once more.
He turned and looked at the sweet red head tied and gagged on her parents bed. He smiled and moved ontop of her. She made painfully expression on her face with a low whipper but he just pushed his member inside and began to change this girls life forever.

Ashley crept back to the hole in the wall, noticing that the mine hadn't been set off. Smart. She drew a silenced P90 from her back, and slid a magazine in. It had special ammo called 'Shreder Rounds', and were devestating against even Vampires. A cloak activated, rendering her invisible. Creeping back into Asim's home, she first came across Rachael, who had gone to the fridge to get a drink of blood. Raising her gun, Ashley took aim and fired. A muted cough, and Rachael had been hit in the chest, not fatally but enough to render her stunned for several minutes.
The glass of blood that Rachael had been holding toppled from her hand, and smashed on the floor. Ashley cursed, then reset the mine under the female vampire. The other two would most likely move Rachael when they checked her, and that would be perfect. The assassin slid up to the refters once more, lightning quick. There she waited, but not for long...
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Qalyur hung still in the cell, silent for many hours. Finally he jerked awake, disturbed by a nightmare. He gasped, sucking in air gratefully. He seemed to have moastly healed, no doubt thanks to his Dhampir nature. He couldn't help but think that he and Shadow had a connection...somehow. hopefully she had heard him last time, so he tried again. Shadow, please. Can you hear me? I need you now, Shadow. Please.... It was a longshot, but a shot nontheless. Maybe she could have heard him, and it was all Qalyur had. He hung on to it, like a drowning man to a small branch that might be able to save him, or snap under his hands and send him spiraling into oblivion.
A vampire came in, the one he recognized as his daughter. She stepped up to him, her nose almost touching his. "You abandoned me. To Zero. Now, you have been abandoned by your friends. So sad, isn't it Dad? But now, you get to suffer as I did. Enjoy."
Before Qalyur could say anything to Sylvia, the chains activated again, this time making him scream in agony. Shadow! Help me!

Asim stared back into Shadow's eyes. The memory of her being with Qalyur, the apparent son who had tried to kill him all too recent. He slipped his hand out of hers and sighed. Though he hated them both he couldn't ignore her pleas for help. He could never ignore Shadow if she needed him, he had already sworn that pledge and could not, he realised, ever abandon her.
"I'll help you." He said and thought to himself though don't expect me to wait around to watch the celebrations after we kick Zero's a$$. Suddenly he paused and stood up. He recognised the scent from before. "On guard Shadow, she's back for round two." He took a moment to locate the scent coming from the rafters. Invisible to the naked eye she may be but not to a vampire's senses. He grabbed a sword. "You don't get the drop on me twice, witch..."
