Within the Veil Forest, through its more dark and twisted area was something hidden within it. It was an opening in the woods, a small crevice that you could barely find yourself fitting into. A place where no light shone within it. Theodore opened his eyes and coughed up loudly. He would have found himself surrounded in darkness, but with his Vampire vision accustomed to the darkness–all he found was something glowing in the walls. Little moss-like plants decorated his surroundings and gave him a…-

One thing sometimes inevitably led to the other, and this new situation at hand was something that Theodore did not find himself pleased by. He had been waiting for Lukas and Chaerin. His foot tapped lightly on the ground as he counted the minutes. About this time, the Forest Dwellers should have come back by now and so he wasn't stressed out when he saw a silhouette of someone coming from a certain direction. Until the said silhouette collapsed onto the ground. Theodore's eyes widened in alarm and…

Lukas and Chaerin froze in their tracks at the sound of the voice. It didn't belong to Theodore and instead it was coming from the faraway trees, so Lukas immediately prepared to summon his dagger. However, his worry vanished a little when he realized it was Vulpine. Her orange hair swayed slightly as she appeared from one branch and then leaped onto a wooden platform. Vulpine's purple eyes glanced wildly around the two of them, and her earlier confident appearance vanished in exchange for a…

Lukas wasn't supposed to be happy with that–it meant that they were possibly in more danger than what they were in. And yet if it meant that Chaerin would be more cautious and on guard with the "Great Leader" then it was enough. "What are we supposed to do then?" Lukas asked. "We shouldn't try any of their foods and drinks, then? Maybe try to escape in the night–" "I hope that's unnecessary." Theodore said. "We won't be able to get past here again if we end up on bad terms with the group."…

Chaerin's red hair seemed paler within the Veil Forest and her eyes were rather focused on the blades of grass beneath her feet more than anything else in their environment. She spoke evenly, but quietly still and it wormed in Lukas' heart. A feeling of neglect and abandonment. Lukas was someone who lived most of his life in self-sufficiency. If he had similar feelings like Chaerin's in the past, he wound up not thinking about it and squashing it instead. But now, this was his girlfriend he was…

There was a current of emotions that flooded through Chaerin at the words of Theodore in regards to Alexei. While she may not have ordinarily cared for someone–stuck as she was in her own little world… it did not sit well with her. "But a hunter is always a hunter." Chaerin muttered with a bitter smile. "Disposable." Only Lukas could have heard her and to be fair, he also did think that it was too much to kill Alexei just because they killed one of the stags in the grasslands. He didn't even think…

The Veil Forest was an environment that was coined for the existence of its thick mists that provided a veil from the outside world. Its residents had long known how to operate in their home and use it to their advantage. It was so effective that these people found it unnecessary to leave their dwellings, usually kept to themselves and yet protected their home fiercely when it came down to things. Lukas' gaze focused on the figure who stepped out of the mist and he was greeted with the graceful and…

"We're stuck." Theodore frowned as he peered through the mist. He kept trying to rev the car and start the engine, but no matter how much he tried to make it work, it didn't. "Well, I'm on it." Alexei quickly rolled his shoulders a little and prepared to go down. "Someone's gonna lift the van a little–could be mud or something else." "Are you sure about that?" Lukas asked. "Need some help? I'm actually decently–" "Sure, sure, whatever." Alexei said as he opened the door. "As long as we finally…

Midnight. Her name was not Midnight at all, but for a young child–she had actually liked the nickname the Vampire had given to her. But that wasn't the important thing as she raced into the Veiled Forest. The small 'bunny' was part of something bigger. And she had duties that she had to fulfill. *** "Hyah!" Lukas kicked a wall and watched it crumble into dust. The freedom of tearing down a house brick by brick was not lost upon him, but he wanted to check out his abilities. "Do you think this is…

"I wish it was easy to get stronger." Lukas sighed as he and Theodore slowed down for the night. He didn't think it was possible for a Vampire to sweat, but after what seemed like an hour or two of consecutive training, he did. "We all wish that, but you know it's impossible to grow beyond your cap." Theodore said as he placed his two daggers at his side. "What do you mean by that?" Lukas raised a brow. "Your bloodline for example determines your possible growth and limitations. If you come from a…
