The warning was laid out on paper before everyone's pillow. If it met the eyes of the sleeper, it would be a greatful gift. In May's hand there would be the following words:

Lock the doors, windows, and shut the blinds. Say the word "Άδυτο" and do not venture in the halls. Tonight is not safe for one and all, for there is a monster lurking where the shadow's fall. Do not go out tonight. Do not go out. I beg of thee.

For those who were wise, they would heed Mayverdia Aleta's warning. The night of August 17th was not a safe one.

Darcy had crashed at Shane's. Seems she was staying less and less at the HQ lately. Yawning as she pushed her way inside the door. She had left whenever Shane went to work. Which was like...At the crack of frickin' dawn! So yeah she was tired and planned on crashing in her room. The compound was quiet.

She checked in on her sleeping brother and smiled. It was cute the way he slept. Quietly closing the door she padded on barefeet to her own room stifling a yawn. Door closed behind her she moved over to the bed and threw herself on it. And SMACK! Her face hit...A note?

Blinking the sleepiness out of her eyes she took on a puzzled expression as she read the note. Sitting up she read the note about two more times, "What in the Hell?"

She whispered softly. Shaking her head she climbed off of the bed. Note in hand she moved out of her room and down the hall. Thoughts of sleeping were far away as she, without knocking, opened the door to May's room and walked inside. She glanced over to her bff curled up with Jin. Shrugging she went and sat down beside May and shook her, "Celestina...?"

She again whispered as she laid a hand on her friend and tried to rouse her, "Cele...What is this about? Please, tell me."

Looking concerned and worried for her best bud.

May wasn't in her room, well, nor was Jin. Those two figures in the room were hardly visible. When the note was delivered it was a warning. The little dummies managed to flicker and shimmer for a moment. Suddenly they had vanished.

A voice started to echo through the surroundings and into the hall, May's voice behind it," Il povero piccolo uccello, rubacchiante dalla sua gabbia, migliora rapidamente il funzionamento o l'artiglio lo taglier? alle parti.." What ever she was saying, it was sure to be menicing.

Now she looked confused, alarmed, and slightly afraid. May and Jin were nowhere in sight. Quickly getting up she exited the room. She went back to her room to make sure her baby brother was still sleeping. That done she rushed about making sure all the other doors were closed and bit down on her bottom lip. Bare feet scurrying along as she searched for May.

May was walking down the hall before Darcy, eyes blazing red as she hummed. She had blood dripping off her hands as she slowly took a bite out of an apple. She took lean against a wall, her jet black hair matted down and wettened by blood. She seemed to be coated in crimson intirely.

"Ya know... When you rip the heart from a human's living body, the body is still responsive for roughly ten seconds... The same amount of time that the heart continues to beat in your hand..." She was still grinning as she took another bite," It's a wonderful sensation to watch the life slip from a scum bag's eyes."

Upon seeing May she looked...Relieved and confused. Relieved because her friend was alright. Confused because the blood she was covered in wasn't her own. She then looked over herself just to make sure that they hadn't gone through another form change without her knowledge.

Seeing that indeed this wasn't the case she approached her friend and leaned against the wall as well, "Yes of course I know this. Because I distinctly remember that the last time I asked you to kill me I told you to take my heart and head since that is the only true way to make sure a vampire is dead."

Grinning to her friend wickedly her own eyes bleeding an icy blue as she looked her over, "Shall I run a bath for you or anything like that?"

She asked slowly raising a brow to her. The sight of blood really didn't bother her. Not any more at least.

Slowly May leaned off of her wall and leaned over Darcy instead. She traced her fingers over her neck tenderly with a light purr," What was it like to know that my brother was leaving forever? Is that why you came to me to kill you?" She tilted her head as she pressed her hand on Darcy's chest, so far just a light bit of pressure was given to it.

"Did you want to die because of the loss of him... Or did you want to die because you wanted to be rid of him?" She perked a brow," Were you really so heart broken because he was sent away?"

May's actions didn't catch her off guard. Her questions? Only slightly. Sometimes she knew the woman before her better than she knew herself. Other times she was a complete mystery. It was a perfect balance between them. At the mention of her old flame her eyes narrowed slightly. She had suspected he had something to do with this. Shrugging her left shoulder as she crossed her arms and nuzzled against her bloody best friend slightly, "I was a young soul back then you know that. And though it took him a good long while and much influence from Aphrodite I finally did cave in and fall for him. And when I heard he was leaving? I was crushed dear May. You know that. You remember holding me while I cried out my sorrow and agony onto you. He was the only one I ever thought of being bound to forever. And I wanted to die because I couldn't handle the loss and to get rid of him. I thought if I started over I could forget him. But it seems I can't. And yes while I was heartbroken I am not anymore. I have very well moved on. And though I know you frown upon Shane's...Religious tastes I do love him and wish to be with him. Though him and I can't get married for more than one reason I want to be with him in the closest way possible."

May looked up in her best friends eyes with her crimson hues. It was only a matter of time when she snapped one of these days and took those dear to her. This was not that day. As the sensation of a battle left the air of the alley way she growled," Your fate has been saved for another day dear Cal."

In a haze of dust the darkness was gone, and so was May... The sun was coming up.

Jin had been moved to Riverview. Of all places. She was livid. Her brother had gone too far and more or less it was her duty to defend her dear lover's honor as he had done for her. She narrowed her eyes as she balled her fingers into fists. In the moments she stood outside the door of the Inn she waited for the right moment.

Suddenly the Inn door burst open and May was there, dark hair and blood red eyes. She was still covered in the crusted blood of her victims. She narrowed her eyes, she didn't even need to see him to sense him. Her voice rang out through the gathered," CHIROS NOW!"

Without hesitation she slowly turned and on her toes made her way through the alley way as her mist started to fill the air. The foul thing made the whole of the area shadowed, cold, and in many ways more frightening than any hell imagined.

Darcy had watched her best friend disappear. Shaking her head. Wiping away a tear she had not known that had fallen. Hugging herself tightly for comfort despite being stained with blood. Old flame and old lover had ripped open new wounds. Bleeding fresh and anew.

Mind numbing to the situation she didn't even realize she had walked inside of her room and closed the door. Movements robotic and automatic as she moved into her bathroom to shower. Turning the hot water all the way up. Letting the hot stinging water hit her. It washed away the blood but not the turmoil her mind was in.

After the shower and after getting dressed she exited her room and went to lay in her brother's room. Curling up beside his sleeping form she held him tightly to her. Burying her face against his shoulder she finally broke down. Weeping until there was nothing left and she felt light and empty.
