"At least it's not me this time," Sorina said under her breath, her eyes narrowing into fiery green slits. Lucian stepped forward, quiet and dangerous the way he only was at his highest level of intensity - and danger. "You don't want to be doing that, witch girl," he said softly.

"Oh yes I do! I've been in situations like this before. I'm very capable of going through with this, so..." I giggled as I pressed harder, causing blood to drip from her kneck. "Oooh smell that blood vampires? I know you two have already had a taste it seems..." I said giggling at the two male vampires. "You don't want to lose control do you?" I raised my right eyebrow at them, watching them carefully. Crystal stood there, just hissing in pain. She wanted to fight me, but she knew she couldn't without getting hurt. "Little girl, you seem to get yourself in the worst situations...You never die though. You've almost faced death several times, and you would love to die more than anything. It seems everyone's just torturing you, making you suffer through what you call your life....Maybe it's your time to die..." I whispered softly in her ear. She winced a little. Tears flowed down her cheeks as she tried to calm herself. She pulled herself together and just stood there, emotionless, as blood kept dripping from her kneck.

"No, seriously. You don't," Lucian said softly, stepping forward until he could stare directly into the witch girl's eyes. "And by the way, as long as I'm standing here, it's not her time to die. So, let her go now, and maybe I'll consider sparing your life... okay, probably not. But I may consider killing you quickly." Every word was spoken lightly, but there was an undertone of seething fury that was impossible to miss.

{Crystal} "I don't think I can do that..." Vivian said baring down a little harder. I clenched my teeth even tighter to keep from squealing. My head suddenly was filling with a few memories. One automattically stuck out. I was instantly in some dark place. I could hear myself thinking, "There is a part of my past that no one knows...It's something I've always kept from my friends. If they knew this...There's no telling how they'd feel. I have to keep it a secret. I have hidden it from myself as well. There's no telling how much pain it would bring to remember...." I was scared of what I had forgotten.... Suddenly the memory appeared. I was only five. A man and woman that appeared to be my parents were standing there. They kept yelling at me. I just stood there. I had no reactions to there words. No tears fell, until they both struck me hard. I fell to the ground, sobbing as they kept beating me. "You are worthless! Why do we even bother taking care of you?" was the last thing I heard as everything quickly passed through time until, as it apperead, I was ten. I had come home from school. I had noticed quickly my parents weren't home. It wasn't too strange a thing to me though. They would always leave, but there would always be some sort of notice. They also wouldn't take everything that really belonged to them. A note was left on the table. I shook as I picked it up and read it: Dearest Crystal, We have decided to give you our house to have as your own. You will no longer be living with us. We have moved away. Go on with your life as an independent child. You can figure everything out. Since you are only ten you will need money. We have left some with you and will send you some when we can. Tears fell from my eyes as I sat down on the couch. I was hopelessly lost and confused. What could I do? I was only ten...
My eyes fluttered as I ajusted back to reality. I closed my eyes instantly as tears fell. I felt myself black out instantly...
{Vivian} As soon as I felt Crystal faint I dropped her body. "Okay I didn't do that! I swear." I said backing up as I freaked out. What the hell was that?

Lucian snarled. "You honestly expect us to believe - " "She had a memory," Sorina interrupted, moving forward and picking up her friend's limp body. Vampire strength made it easy. "She always passes out when she has the bigger, dramatic ones. Crystal." She shook her gently, but firmly enough to wake her up. "Crystal, wake up."

My eyes opened quickly. I knew I'd have to tell them eventually, and Thomas probably saw it... This was not going to end well for me. When I finally got myself together I supported myself and said, "I'm fine.."

"Yeah..." Sorina's eyes narrowed into bright green slits. "No, you're not. It's quite difficult to lie to me." Lucian padded up behind her, inclining his head slightly. "She has a point. Even I can hardly lie to her," he muttered.

{Thomas} I looked at Crystal in shock. "Your parents were around until you were ten." I stated out load. "Why wouldn't you tell us?" My head was kinda foggy, because of the smell of Crystal's blood. I bit my lip and tried to stay calm.
{Marcus} I held my breath. The stench of wolf blood burned my nose. I glanced at Fate and realized she was staring at the red liquid. "FATE!" I shouted, mentally. She couldn't lose contral. I knew the smell didn't appeal to her, but she was way too thirsty to care.
{Fate} I could feel myself wanting to give over to the instincts. Even though wolf blood smelled less inviting then Marcus's and human blood, I was thirsty. "NO! It's Crystal. Hold your breath." Marcus was mentally shouting. "Why do you care if I bite her?" I retorted, mentally. "She's your friend and you ouldn't forgive me if I didn't try."

"Because I didn't want y'all to know about..." I said as I tried to control myself. I had no idea what to say. Tears kept falling. "I didn't want y'all to know that they beat me! I just didn't want to remember all of that and put it on y'all as well, but it seems that I can't hide from it anymore. I have to face it now..." I cried. I also noticed the vampires were trying to control themselves around me. I quickly grabbed a napkin, and tried to wipe off the blood. I suddenly saw Vivian trying to sneak away....

Sorina sighed softly. "Crystal, it's okay. You're not exactly the only one," she said dryly. Her eyes landed on Vivian and she opened her mouth to say something, but Lucian was already moving. He darted over lightning fast and grabbed the girl's arm, holding so tightly he was in danger of crushing something. Like bone. "I told you wouldn't want do that," he growled very softly as he dragged her back over to the rest of the group. "What do we do, then?" he asked boredly. "Kill her?"

{Vivian} I gulped. I was deeply afraid of him now. "No! Please don't...I-I wasn't really going to kill her. I was only s-stalling. Lacey has your brother. Her and Jezebel have some plans with him. I swear if I had a choice I wouldn't even be here right now. Please don't kill me...." I begged as a tear fell.

Sorina's eyes flew wide open. "Lacey has Shadow?" she hissed through her teeth, stalking over to stand in front of Vivian. "I swear, if you're lying - " "She's not," Lucian said calmly. "She's too scared right now to lie. She knows I'd be able to see right through her." His grip tightened on her arm. "Right?"

"I swear I'm not! Lacey and Jezebel have him at Jezebel and Angel's aunt's house right now. Go there to see for yourself. Take me with you if you must. Just please don't kill me..." I begged starting to really cry. I wanted Crystal to die, but I wanted to keep my life. I will kill her how I want when I don't have to worry about these guys being in my way. Right now I'll keep my innocence showing and hopefully they will spare me for now...

Lucian's growl rumbled in his chest, but this time he didn't deign to respond to her; his blue eyes were suddenly fixated on Crystal, turning from crystal blue to sapphire as they tended to when he was serious or angry. "How bad did they hurt you?" he asked softly, almost inaudibly. A human might not have been able to distinguish the words, but given recent events there wasn't a human among them anyway. "I swear, if your parents..." He swallowed hard, trying to bite back on a stream of words that wouldn't exactly improve the situation.

"It appears they beat me almost everyday. Up until I was ten when they left me...I'm not sure how I could've survived after that. Not unless I had someone helping me through it all. It's surprising I kept it all from y'all. I would think I would've just burst instead of it accidently coming out like this...." I started to cry again. The pain was hard to conceal. I didn't want them to worry so much about me, but if I didn't have anyone helping me I was going to start crashing again...
