"Of course she's dead!" Nick said as if he was talking to a dumb child. I thought he was in denial. I didn't think he was actually telling me something important.
"Look at her lips, they're blue." I said calmly. He shook his. There was a girl who looked dead to me at least, and a boy who was in denial.
"Stupid human." Nick muttered. Human? Me? I'm not human. I wasn't fully human that is. I was still warm blooded but I had everything else like vampire, except for the speed.
"I am no more human than a werewolf." I growled. Technically it was true. Werewolves are half human, and half wolf. Nick shook his head.
"You have to be human." Nick hissed. I shook my head.
"I'm not." I said soothingly.
"Then how can you think she's still alive and has died before you?" Nick growled at me. I could tell he was irritated. I took a step back.
"Look at her! She's not breathing! Her lips are blue. It's obvious that she's gone." I said trying to help him understand.
"She's a vampire." He hissed. "Of course she's not breathing and she's cold! What are you boy?"
"I'm a vampire, Nick." I said as I knelt by Renee. He looked at me shocked. He opened his mouth to say something, but quickly closed it. I couldn't seem to put it in my head.
"How'd you know my name?" Nick asked stunned. I froze. I didn't know what to say.
"Um...well I...I just do." I stuttered. I began to think frantically. What could I say? I began to panic. He didn't seem to notice my stutter and was tending to Renee. He was leaning over her checking her for wounds. It didn't look like there were any.
"What's your name?" He asked as he lifted Renee's head. I wasn't playing attention to him. Renee's eyes flickered. "What's your name?" Nick repeated fiercely in my ear. I jerked my gaze towards him. He looked worried.
"Josh." I said as I swung my head back to Renee. Her eyes were closed. I sighed and studied her. Her hair probably fell just above her waist. I couldn't quite tell her hair color because it was wet. But it looked almost black and with strips of orange in them.
"What team are you on?" Nick asked as he looked seriously at me. Team? What was he talking about?
"Teams? I don't know what you're talking about." I said dumbfounded. I was confused. What teams? Like baseball teams?
"In the Vampiric war." He said quietly as he smoothed Renee's hair from her face. I looked over to her. She looked so peaceful. Her eyes fluttered open. She looked around focusing on Nick's face.
"Nickolas?" She asked soothingly. "What happened?"
"It doesn't matter." He said quietly. She shook her head. She tried to sit up, but Nick(or Nickolas as she had said) pushed her back gently to the floor.
"It does matter." She argued. She blinked and her eyes shot to me. I took in a deep breath. Her eyes were a dark brown and they were cold and blank.
"Who are you?" She hissed as she sat up against Nick's protest. I opened my mouth to say something, but froze as her gaze met mine. The worlds were lodge in my throat. It took me a minute to recover.
"I'm Josh." I said not taking my gaze off her. She nodded as I stood up.
"Renee Vargas." She said as she extended her hand for me to shake it. I took her's in mine, and shook it. "What are you doing here?"
"Looking for you." I said before I realized what I was saying. The words seemed to just fly out of my mouth. I saw Nick's quick sharp movements as he moved beside Renee. The only thing that crossed my mind was vampire's quickness.
"Why?" The words slipped hostilely out of Nick's mouth. Renee placed a hand on his arm and looked fiercely at him and whispered something to him.
"I don't know." I said, not even before I had finished Nick rolled his eyes.
"Renee," Nick said turning to Renee. "We can't trust him. What if Kayla sent him? What if James sent him!?" To my luck Renee discarded his worries.
"Let's say he's not," She argued. "And we're sending away an ally." I didn't understand what they were talking about. How could I be an ally?
"He could be an assassin!" Nick almost shouted. Assassin? Me? I could never kill someone. Much less murderer someone because I was told to.
"Nonsense." She said as she dusted herself off.
"Are you listening to yourself!? You're in denial. He's obviously here to hurt you." He argued with her. Renee seemed to think he was over reacting.
"Obviously, we should ask him?" Renee growled. They both turned towards me. I was speechless. How could she ask me to answer? Would they even believe me?
"I'm not an assassin." I said plainly. Renee's eyes sparkled with something that seemed like hope while Nick's screamed hate.
"I find that believable." She said happily clapping her hands to together.
"Well, I don't." Nick hissed. I hung my heads at his words. Did he hate me? I didn't even know this guy and he already hated me?
"I assure you, Nickolas. He wont hurt me." She said as she ringed out her hair. I nodded. Why would I hurt her? I had nothing to gain from me.
"Fine." Nick sighed. He was still hostile towards me, but I don't think he'd hurt me. "Hey, Stephanie." Nick said sweetly. I spun around to see her walking towards us. All I could wonder was where she had been when Renee, and Nick had been arguing what my intentions were.
"Do you know this human?" Renee asked Stephanie as she reached us. Stephanie nodded, and eyes grew wide at she realized who she was speaking with.
"Renee!" Stephanie said happily. Renee flung her arms around Stephanie. They hugged for a moment and parted. "It is good to see you."
"As with you." Renee said blandly. "How do you know this human?" She said human as though she was afraid to say it. I was about to protest. I was certainly not human. Before I could even open my mouth Stephanie spoke for me.
"He is not human. He is a hybrid, Milady. Half human and half vampire!" She explained happily. Renee looked confused. I was wondering why Stephanie had called Renee Milady. It hadn't been used for many centuries, but I suppose if she was a high military leader it could be used as for respect.
"Stephanie," Renee said coldly. "I have agreed to return, if only no one addresses me like you just have." Stephanie slightly blushed.
"I am sorry." Stephanie said quietly.
"Don't be." Renee said gleefully. She glimmered as the sunlight fell over here. As a vampire raised in the city I didn't know much about the way things worked here.
"Miss?" I asked hoping Renee would be the one to answer me. My wish was granted.
"Please, call me Renee." She said as she turned her attention to me. "I have not met you before?" It was more of question the way she spoke the words.
"No, but I would like to know what's going on." I said as I watched her face for any change. She looked happy, and joyful. Suddenly, Stephanie was glaring at me.
"I am afraid I cannot help you. I don't know." She said seriously, but her eyes still had a glimmer of laughter.
"Can someone tell me?" I asked looking to Nick. He was looking at Renee. I turned my gaze to her. She nodded.
"Well, Renee," Nick said angrily. "I don't approve of strangers knowing our business." She had her eyes closed. She opened them, and looked directly at Nick.
"I trust him, why can't you?" She asked childlike.
"Fine," Nick growled as he turned to me. "She is or once was the leader of the rebellion." He paused for me to comment or acknowledge what he was saying when I didn't he continued, "She is a creation of Kayla. One of her ten experiments. Kayla only chose the humans she saw fit her expectations."
"Sadly, one of them was Renee." He turned to her. "She was turned by Kayla, and was forced with medication." He grabbed her hand. "She had been released by Kayla, and she began the rebellion. I had found her after being turned by Vlad. I have been her second in command for two years.
"She had gotten in a fight with one of the other commanders, and went to find Kayla instead of risking everyone else." He spoke with disgust. I nodded. "Somehow, she had escaped Kayla a second time, and here she is."
"Yes, here I am." Renee said coldly. "Um, Josh is it?" I nodded. "How can you not know of me? The Cut knows about me so does The Council. Even the wolves, and the witches."
"Well...I don't belong to any of them. I was born as I am, not turned...my blood doesn't belong to any of the groups you spoke of." I said as I fumbled with my hands.
"The hybrid." Stephanie sighed as she placed a hand on Renee's shoulder.
"I suppose...he is, but I'm still skeptical of his....it doesn't matter anymore." Renee said as she played with her hair.
"Go on say it." Nick hissed.
"Don't get snippy with me!" She growled at him. I cringed at her harsh tone even though it wasn't directed to me.
"Both of you stop it. Isn't this the same thing that made her leave in the first place?" Stephanie said trying to stop them.
"Nickolas!" Renee hissed as a knife came whirling out of the forest. He grabbed it in midair and flung it back in the direction it came. I heard a grunt of pain come from the area it had come from.
"Wow." I said as my jaw dropped. That was amazing. I didn't know we were in serious danger. Renee pulled something from her side and walked over to me.
"Take it." Renee said as she handed me a knife. "You know how to use it?" She asked as I took it. I shook my head. She sighed loudly. "Just hold the end, here." She said as she eased my hand down to the lower handle of the knife. Her skin was cold and it took all my effort not to cringe away.
"Like this?" I asked as the others were taking out their weapons. She nodded as she pulled a sharper knife from the small of her back. I was surprised it had hidden there without being noticed by me.
"Now, you just use it for self-defense. You think you can do that?" She asked. I nodded. "Lets go." She began to walk in the direction the knife had come from. Nick bolted forward, and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You can't-"
"I most certainly can, and will despite your worries." She silence him instantly.
"But-" Stephanie Stephanie started to argue.
"No, I'm going." Renee hissed at Stephanie.
"But, Renee, It could be Kayla or your fledglings!" Stephanie protested.
"What danger are my fledglings to me?" Renee asked sorrily.
"They've joined Kayla's fleet of fighters. Chrissy is
