Windsong Academy

Marina had finally finished with her last class and was making her way to Kross's office, one of her favorite areas of the school, well next to the library that was. When she got there she knocked on the door and waited till he let her in she walked in and shut the door behind her then went to the chairs. She took her bag off setting it in one chair then sat down in the other with her panda bear on her lap.

"Is Miss. Alison okay, and are you feeling better Mr. Vampire?" she asked sweetly trying to slightly avoid talking about her self at the moment.

Marina looked away from him now with a her bright smile now replaced with a slight sad one. "You have to promise to keep this confidential, before I tell you" when he nodded she started to tell him.

"Well I carry on me just encase I need it, I started carrying two around when I found out you were a full vampire encase if you ever did need one, but I'm part vampire my self, not a full one like you, I'm not dependent on blood and I can go out in the sun." she set her panda bear next to her and pulled her necklace out from under her shirt "My necklace makes me look like a 'normal' human, I don't like to take it off unless I have to, or its around some one I super trust, like my real name." she looked up at him "anything else you wanna know Mr. Vampire?" she asked she had a serious look on her face now.

Lucifer dropped the stupid were-rabbit, letting her flee like the prey she was. There wasn’t any need for him to have been so rough with her to get her to tell him what he wanted to know, but he wanted to be. He noted the looks in Cain and Rex’s eyes as they followed the girl until she disappeared around the farthest corner, such simple but useful beasts they were. He turned, his footsteps echoing ominously as he headed towards his target.

Alison, his sweet little Alison, would fall from her high perch of righteous truth, but first she had to suffer. He knew his time to strike was limited, because when Alison woke up she’d come at him for her revenge. Mental images flashed before his dark brown-black eyes of her running from them only days before, leaving a sense of satisfaction behind as he pushed open the door to the library.

“Find her,” Lucifer ordered with an imperial gesture.

Cain and Rex broken off in two directions, efficiently hunting down the little girl Alison had taken an interest in. When Lucifer noticed the two beasts merging in on a direction, he knew it was time to start his plans.

He wasn’t sure what to make of the girl that was hunched over her books, the panda thing she had sitting next to her was old and ragged as far as he could tell. Who let the girl into classes above her age? Oh, this was going to be sweet. He leaned against the end of the book case and signaled for Cain and Rex to do their thing.

Cain and Rex, were-jackal and were-Doberman respectively, converged in on their prey. Cain was bulky and soldier like, keeping his sandy-blonde hair cropped short, uniform to code, and followed orders of his commanding officer – Lucifer of course – to the letter. Rex was more refined than Cain, looking more like a dedicated body guard paid to look like he was a pencil pusher with his short slick backed black hair.

Cain and Rex blocked off the only other two ways out of the corner the girl had put herself into. Lucifer approached casually, “So you are the girl that managed to get put into classes above her age. I was expecting something a little more… powerful than this. How disappointing it’s just a worthless little street rat come off the streets dragging her filthy little rags along with her.”

Miss. Carter closed the door to Alison’s room, leaving her to rest now that she’d found a nurse who could follow the instructions she gave. She shook her head and returned back to the pool, using the showering facilities there. When she finished she covered herself with a clean towel and went to the saltwater pool. She slipped into the water slowly, allowing for her land legs to reform into her tail. Once she was into the water completely she put the towel over the bar to the ladder to get out of the water.

She swam idly back and forth, basking in the feel of the salty water over her flesh and scales. She dove when she reached the deeper end of the pool, staying submerged as she let her earlier calls replay over in her head. She hadn’t expected the responses she had gotten from Alison’s family. They ranged from indifference to outright anger towards Alison for getting herself hurt again. It seemed so wrong, so un-siren like, that it had compelled her to contact the Chamber of Records in Atlantis to look into Alison’s lineage.

The results of that research had come in just before she’d left Alison’s room earlier. No one in the girl’s family had ever been registered as siren, not a single drop of blood lineage notated for anyone related to her since before human’s knew how to keep track of their own genealogy. In fact, according to the reported information, Alison herself was only human. This, of course, was nowhere close to the truth as she’d known from the moment she’d meet Alison that the girl was one of them. So it left her with more questions than answers. How is it that the Seers do not see her for what she is? How is it that she survived this long when others of her ilk often were driven mad by the time they were her age and killed themselves?

After they left she sat up and tears started to fall, she didn't want to cry in front of bully's like them she didn't need to give them that pleasure of seeing her cry. She stood up, brushed herself off then made sure she stopped crying before leaving the library.

She walked to the tree and looked up at it, she had small bruises where she was hurt but she had been threw worse at the orphanage, she went into her bag and made sure panda was safe before she walked around the school.
