Slowly opening her eyes Danté couldn't help look at them both individually, having two eye colours really did distract one's own eyes from making proper contact with them.
Her smile appeared as her arms came around his neck, Danté didn't move, he was fascinated, her hands felt soft, the skin on her arms as the slid over his shoulders felt soft, she felt, normal.Her head came up and from his vision he only saw her frisky short cut hair, her breath now in his neck, what was this!? Then that sharp pain in his neck made him fly up from the couch slapping at it.He breathed heavily, it was a dream! But two sided one a nightmare, why did she haunt him? Was it that vision of her face clear in his cross hairs? They say a sniper's job in reality is a lot more personal than one thinks, you get to see the face of the one you kill, get to know him for a few seconds, then squeeze the trigger.Rebecca was the first he never shot, is this why he had thThe student life, he forgot how it felt... No he didn't, Danté never went to college, or highschool, he never attended any school, the Cross taught him everything he knew and thanks to that it was never a real social life accept for the two hunters that was there with him.He was the youngest ever taken in and despite that they weren't soft on him, grinding routine and discipline into him like religion.To his right he caught Rebecca waving at Tiffany, she herself dragging Benson by his hand "Hey Becky you'll be fine right?"Rebecca looked at Benson and folded her arms stubbornly "Yeah, I'll be fine"The large player cleared his throat "I– I'm sorry Rebecca, you see I had my eye out for Tiffany quite a while now"Rebecca laughed waving "Relax Benson, you're a better guy than Daniel at least""I am?""Dunno? Let's ask out biology lecturer for a sum up?"Danté nearly choked on his drink "Me!?""Yeah, sure?"Dant&eac
Danté flew upright in his bed, he suddenly forgot how he got there, last thing he remembers was spending time with Rebecca on that football field, then its all a blank, did he drink himself into an oblivion? So much so that he forgot?He looked at his bedside table, his phone wasn't there, he flew up looking for it, everywhere, outside his car stood parked and there he found it under his seat, still recording.Danté felt a chill, usually when he left his phone on record it meant he wanted to catch something specific, although now he couldn't recall why, and when he placed it on record?Stopping it he played the recording back, he heard the muffled sounds of kissing and moaning from Rebecca, ice cold chills now, he had her in his car!?"Faster" was the last thing she said when he heard himself grunt, then groan, then it went quiet.Not long after that Rebecca spoke, and Danté could feel his soul leave him."You will forget everything after the football field""I
"I want you to close your eyes and empty your mind now" Skyler said as Rebecca lied on a couch spread out supine."Okay?""You are obviously here because you had blood again, mind telling me what happened?""Well, me and Danté had a good time, then we found each other in the back of his car""Were you both drunk?""Yes""Did you compel him to the car?""No""So, the urges to drink his blood, was that the reason you wanted him?""No~""Then?"Rebecca felt her face warm up "Honestly I only wanted to have sex with him"Skyler almost giggled looking at Villa scoffing."I heard that ma""Did the need to feed kick in before you started undressing or during?""During""What did you see? What made you sink your fangs?""The blood coursing through the vein in his neck""How did it look?""Like the milky way, full of stars but yellow, the sounds of his heartbeat almost like music playing, it
Skyler was still busy writing his name when he said the words 'anger issues?' Could it be the same Danté Rebecca spoke of moments ago? If so what could it mean?"Do you take any medication for it?""I drink, a lot, if that's considered medication?""How long have you used alcohol to douse the anger?""Almost six years"She wrote it down on her clipboard "Its a long time""I know""Any health issues due to it?""Not yet"She decided to beat around the bush in a sneaky way "Do you have someone in your life? A girl perhaps?""No, not really""Not really?"Danté didn't want to bring her up, but "I met this girl not too long ago, although because of my occupation I can't really give her the attention she deserves""What do you do?""I'm a dept collector"Skyler thought it might not be him then, according to Rebecca the Danté she spoke of was a tutor."I want you to think of her" she
Danté walked to the middle of his RV and opened the door, like a girl storming a toy store Rebecca playfully came running but Villa behind her was obviously suspicious."You two? What a surprise!?" Dante asked, the act of playing stupid became like an art to him."A little far from the old RV park don't you think?" Villa asked folding her arms."Yeah, I could say the same? You two on a road trip or something?""What were you doing at Skyler's place?" Villa asked straight but Danté awaited that question."Skyler Stander?""Yes?""Oh, therapy of course""You're a lecturer, what kind of therapy would you need?"Danté's stomach bubbled at the questions, its a game to him sometimes in situations like this, he knew his mind would bail him out, all he needed was a second to think.He held the canteen of rum up "I have a slight problem remember? No one could help me so far""Skyler told me you broke your finger?"'And they keep coming' he thought "Yes, it
Danté drew the RV into a truck parking lot and grabbed his bag, Vincent made sure to escort him to departures as he was ordered.Turning to him Danté threw the keys "Take care of her okay?""Will do"Vincent stood waiting to be certain Danté climbed onto the plane then left the airport. In the RV he first took a beer out of the fridge and opened it.The place was a mess, Vincent couldn't help be impressed at how well Danté drove this donkey of a vehicle, but as a result of that NASCAR stunt everything here was out of its place.He went through drawers and cupboards, checked the glove compartment and window visors, nothing stood out, just an old grandma's RV by all other means.He then noticed something sticking out underneath the rubble, kicking some away he picked up the small black book and opened it.His eyes went wide, a little side scheme Dante had, it wasn't unheard of for hunters to have things like this, the prob
Villa placed her phone down and looked at Rebecca, her eyes still out on the dessert landscape with a dreamy stare. They drove for three days straight wanting to make sure that hunter lost their trail."You still thinking of him?""Yeah""You know thanks to him you're a target now?""I don't care, why did he help me ma? Doesn't that bother you?"Villa sighed "Slightly""What's going to happen to him though? Since he tried to help me?""A silver test"Rebecca frowned "Silver test?""Its a test all hunters must pass to prove they're not turned, and since you bit him he's going to have to attend it""What does it imply?""They strap you to a chair in the sun for a week, but that's just the half of it, from there on they use all sorts of silver needles and blades to cut and prod, making sure no shift happens whilst you're there""That sounds horrible""You have no idea, during that time you don't eat or drink, surviv
"How to be the best hunter you can be" was the first words Rebecca read in that booklet and she felt hooked to it instantly."Its not about who you are, your gender, where you came from, everyone in the world is unique therefore evey passing hunter or huntress will bare his or her own unique traits, making you dangerous in your own right"Rebecca thought of her strengths, she's a hybrid right? But she barely knew any of it, focusing most of her life to be a human she never learned to be what she really is."Hunting vampires are no small feat, but you don't need strength or speed, they will still be dominant over a hunter in those aspects if you're not a vampire yourself, the only way you can have an advantage over them is the know how, choose your fights, choose the location, make the entire situation pour to your favour and overcome the target, if it can't be so, do not proceed with the hunt"She shifted the page and stretched her legs on the bed, so far this bo
