"Your friends are such good people? Is there such a thing as a 'good' vampire? Seems a contradiction in terms."

"Yes, there is. I've seen them. Met them. I'm not saying we're perfect. No one is. But are you any better? You hold us and torture us. This makes you good?"

"On the contrary, Miss Raz0r. You have been kept safe from the sun, you have been given a safe place to pass your time and you have been fed. This is, by definition, not torture. Tell me, just who you believe these 'good' vampires are?"

"My brother."

"Ah, the one full of Faith. Not quite good, though. Having faith doesn't make you good."

"Kimberly, who feeds the homeless. Odessa, who heals all. These are the best of us that I know. These are the ones who care. There are those who hold to their humanity, who try to do what's right by all. Not just the few."

"Have you considered their motives?"

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

"Is any creature truly entirely without selfishness? There are reasons for everything anyone does. Not just one."

Admin Posts : 20841 Join date : 2010-03-19

"Oh, I didn't say that we were any less selfish. The difference is that we do not play at being 'good'. Other than that we are good at what we do."

She snorted.

"You still haven't answered what you want from me. Can I do anything to save my friends? Those I love. And don't you dare say that I can't feel that emotion."

"That depends, Raz0r. How far would you go to save them?"

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

"To the ends of the earth. To hell and back. I would die for them. I would live in pain for the rest of my existence for them. I would do anything to save their lives."

Admin Posts : 20841 Join date : 2010-03-19

"So, you will do anything I ask, just to save them from harm?"

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

She nodded slowly.

"Anything but hurt the innocent, yes."

"I will ponder this and get back to you shortly."

The room was filled with silence once again.

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

She slipped to the ground, curling up in a fetal position, to wait. And try not to cry.

Admin Posts : 20841 Join date : 2010-03-19

It could have been days. It could have been hours. She couldn't tell anymore. No light, no sound -- nothing at all in the room except for Raz0r and her thoughts.

She just waited. Dawn would still grip her, she hoped. But there was nothing else to do but focus on her bonds and her stones. Hoping.

Dawn took her at least three times before she saw anything again. When she did, she saw a man. Obviously a male, tall and lanky, wearing a suit. He was obviously of some sort of Asian descent -- moving through the wall and forward, to the table. There, he pulled out a laptop. Ignoring her, he started to type, pressing keys -- all while not saying a word or even acknowledging her presence.

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

She watched him for a while before standing. She wasn't trying to cover herself. What was the point? They'd seen it all anyways. But after a few minutes, her curiosity woke back up and she stood to move around the table and see what he was doing.

Admin Posts : 20841 Join date : 2010-03-19

He didn't move. He didn't even seem to notice her presence. But the screens he was flipping through? He flipped through them so quickly that it was difficult for her to get any sort of idea of what he was actually doing. Though it looked like some sort of report was being generated.

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

Whether she could tell what was being done or not, it was better than staring at a blank wall. So she watched.

Admin Posts : 20841 Join date : 2010-03-19

It was a report, quite literally, on every single one of her movements. Including watching him as he typed his report.

Methuselah Posts : 8745 Join date : 2010-09-23

She was almost past caring. But not quite.

"You're not going to acknowledge my existence except to write about it, are you?"

Admin Posts : 20841 Join date : 2010-03-19

He seemed almost surprised. Turning his head, he looked at her.

"Whaa?"

As if she had thoroughly interrupted his thought process.
