Was it arrogance? A belief in one's immortality? That he was some kind of Main Character in this world? Lukas didn't know what to say, maybe a part of himself believed that. It wasn't feasible in his eyes to be suddenly thrown into the life of someone else and with capabilities beyond those of the ordinary–so he had to believe. He was not blind or intrinsically humble. "Lukas…" Chaerin looked at him, with her brows furrowed together in worry. He reached out and clasped her cheek, offering her…-

"Sounds like a plan. It shouldn't be too deep." Lukas said. "We can try it with a rock?" Chaerin picked up a pebble. "See how much it sinks–" "No!" Ursa suddenly said. "Stay out of the water!" Lukas who had been prepared to swim across suddenly halted. There was a terror in her voice that didn't fit the dominating figure of the woman–and it showed as she completely pulled Chaerin and Theodore back as well. "What's the situation…?" Lukas didn't understand at all. But for someone like Ursa, it…

What were the earliest memories that she could remember? It was something that made up a large portion of who a person would be. Childhood events. People they've met and known. A young cub walked behind the form of her tremendous father, the sounds of soft grassy blades crunching underneath her paws. Soft. Delicate. Pliant. It was easier to focus on her feet than the eerie and sometimes overwhelming cloud of mists that surrounded them. She was afraid that she'd lose him in the thick veil of mists, but…

It was more or less settled for them now. The majority of the fireplaces were now all put out and mostly everyone had returned to their huts except for Lukas and the rest of the people with him. A small circle of not so friends were gathered together for their next move. A certain Vampire had a long stick which he poked the ground with and drew little circles. "Okay, let's try to draw a map." Lukas offered. "We don't have maps here." Nievu replied evenly. "Fine, let's get through with this without…

It was an unfair trade–giving up your life and the chance to take care of your child in order to save the life of another. Lukas didn't exactly meet the gaze of his companions, each one seeming to have a different opinion than the other. "Well, that's utterly tragic." Lukas muttered. "But that still does not excuse his actions." Stacy's fist clenched together. Her dark red eyes blazed with a certain fire or perhaps reflected the burning flame in front of them. "A tragedy doesn't permit you to…

Did they exist or not? Lukas' original world had them–as a near extinct species from what he remembered as he watched a documentary. But he never really figured out if this world was the same as his because his city never mentioned Vampires before. If anything, the world he lived in never mentioned anything else. 'And yet…' Lukas mulled things over. "Lukas?" Chaerin's voice pried him out of his thoughts. "Hmmm?" Lukas tried to turn to his girlfriend but then he was suddenly faced with one of the…

Did they know how many people you've killed recently? How many lives were lost while they were here and blissfully unaware? Lukas wanted to ask Nievu that and yet somehow asking it seemed like a worthless question. Each and everyone was free to make their own decision. That was the concept of free will, and right now, Lukas knew that his feelings were not enough to sway others–nor should it be used as his meter to determine how he'd act or not. "Can you explain what exactly happened in the past?"…

The truth was a difficult thing to determine for some people–especially when there were individuals who blended lies with truth and those who refused to say anything at all. Lukas and the rest were driving away from Cervus' group and were using the only singular path cut out from the forest. Which meant that people did travel here, but as the arrows flew and attacked them… Theodore suddenly made a swerve to lose track of them. "Woah, woah, we're going to crash–" Lukas raised his voice in alarm…

Theodore revealed his presence to the other four Vampires with varying degrees of surprise. Lukas and Chaerin were both completely stunned and Stacy and Alexei barely ruffled with his presence. "You're alive?" Lukas blinked. "What's supposed to have happened to him?" Alexei raised a brow. "Long story." Lukas sighed and waved a hand idly, before looking at Theodore who was in completely perfect shape except for the fact that he was a bit muddy and dirty. No signs of bear chew marks or anything. "I…

There was a missing part of the puzzle–there had to be something else still unknown based on how they were treated so far, but Lukas only had one goal in mind. "If that's the situation, then the solution is real simple. Stacy, you and Chaerin will stay here with the others in the group while I'll ask Alexei to come with me and deal with the situation." Lukas said. "What? Are you insane?" Stacy narrowed her eyes at him. "Are you listening to yourself? We're talking about a murderer on the loose and…
