The night was warm and unusually quiet on the day she was born. Her mother held her in pale arms as her violet eyes looked up to the man she called "husband". "Isis.. How could you?" The man asked. His voice thick with conviction. The snowy haired female let out a soft sigh as her violet gaze returned to that of her newborn daughter. "I-I'm sorry Xander." Sh...
On a cold wintery night, Daria looked outside the window of her chambers and studied the snowflakes softly singling down to the ground covering it like a white blanket. She stood there silhouetted against the small candle that lit up the room, for a few moments, before moving away and withdrew deeper towards the heavycurtained four-posted bed. On such cold n...
June Runningdeer sat behind the wheel of a boxy 80's Oldsmobile, while a Willie Nelson song came faintly through the vehicle's speakers. Surrounded by a snow-covered landscape, it seemed to stretch on forever, but she knew the reservation like the back of her hand, so she could have driven blindfolded if she'd wanted. The bitter wind was harsh and snow fell...
Alera sprinted down the street. Her hair whipped behind her as she flew by the closed stores. Five vampires. How had she, a vampire herself, just seen five vampires murdered right before her eyes? Yes, she supposed they could have been Newborns, but still five vampires? She thought back to how the vampires moved, how they fought. No, they couldn't be Ne...

I lay on the rooftop of the teeny little house I had been shadowing for so long. The sun had just gone down and night graced itself with the usual chills and starry beauty. James and Len. They'd been in there since early that morning with their newborn, Sierra. A pretty little girl she was, but not nearly as pretty as mine would have been. I sat up, starin...
Slowly, painfully I push myself up from my knees, then moving in almost robotic form, I help my wife of 6 ½ years to stand with me, leaving the small white box that was so starkly contrasted against the green grass to it's own fate. Memories of the life that box contained rose up in my mind like a tidal wave, reminding me of just how natural that contrast ha...
