| Connan walked on a stone path until it ended, and then on past briar thickets and bushes holding naught but oppressive thorns, until the landscape eased in the rapidly blackening evening.
Eventually, he walked into a clearing, cloaked by towering oak trees and elms, the leaves of which whispered slightly and hid the sounds of his tread. The forest floor was covered in every imaginable type of flower.
In flowers, and in more than a hundred redwood crosses.
Had the graves been less neatly kept, and less clearly ordered, calling the site a mass grave would not be amiss.
Kneeling in dewed grass, heedless to the damage it might cause his attire - leather, which resisted fire better than water, in terms of appearance - Connan gripped the chain around his throat, and a cross fell to the front of it. Praying for his dead friends, he wished them only peace, and himself only the will to seek peace for his own mind, in punishing whoever had killed them. | |

| Jessica having just arrived in the village found herself sat in the graveyard her back against the cold stone her knees pulled up to her chest and she shivered with the chill of the cold air. | |

| Walking back along the stone path, out of his clearing, Connan saw a woman seated within the main cemetery. Wondering why anyone sane would be in such a place at night, he glanced a greeting towards her, stopping a short distance away.
"Evening." | |

| "I've never known what's good for me, and less than ever, now." Still, he stayed where he was, respecting that even if the warning had been for his benefit, he had to consider that it might also be for hers; after all, it was a graveyard. | |

| Jessica moved to stand only to end up on her knees her hands clutching the dirt in frustration. | |

| Voice even, Connan was concerned despite himself. "Are you alright?" | |

| Connan tensed, as was a natural reaction, but answered openly enough.
"Vampire. Not willingly, would be my guess. Listen, if you don't eat, you'll become unstable. Find a butcher, buy a few quarts of blood from there- tell him you're a French chef making Black Pudding, and they might even give it to you for nothing." | |

| Jessica held her arms around her slender waist " I would rather die" she said taking an unsteady step forward " it would free me from this torment" | |

| Raising his eyebrows, he muttered "Very unwillingly. You won't die, and you know it. How good is your restraint?" | |

| Jessica hung her head "I have gone six days before the hunger takes over" she said softly her hand resting on a tree next to her to steadily herself. | |

| "And then what? Slaughtered an innocent? Don't be an idiot. Manage it until you can find a way out. If you need blood,"
Connan took a knife from his combat boot, and continued "I'll spill some willingly, but in such a way that you don't need to bite me." | |

| Connan stared her down.
"You would. Believe me, no matter how strong your will power - one of the girls in my gang was bitten, and after nine days she-"
Realizing what he was saying, he stopped abruptly.
A long silence later he said "Perhaps you would not. Either way, my offer remains open." | |

| Jessica turned to face him "I can bite and not turn who i bite if that's what your worried about of is it the thought of my touch you fear" she said her arms clasp around her waist as the hunger pains grew. | |

| "Neither; I just don't want you draining me dry. Now should I make the cut, or not? There's an empty candle holder on the gate, if I fill that, that will be enough to sustain you, and not damage me."
Twirling the hunting knife, Connan's eyes were darker than usual. For a brief moment, he wondered why he was offering. | |

| Taking the holder, and using it like a bowl, Connan drew the knife across his arm. The wound was fairly shallow, but long. It would bleed but do no permanent damage. Filling the holder quickly, he stepped back. | |

| Jessica smelt the blood and slowly moved to it grasping it in her hands she at first turned her head away and sighed at the thought of this ritual she had to do , she let her fangs slip out and pressed her lips to the sides of the bowl slowly she felt the blood touch her fangs she shivered involuntary before dropping the now empty bowl and siting against the stone wall her head draped in her knees , soft sobs coming from her at having to go threw the feeding again, reminding her of what she saw. | |

| Kain walked through the cemetary and spotted others. He crept closer to see who they were then called. "Greetings..." He stepped over to see them. | |

| Connan walked to a plant, a razor fern, and cut a long blade of grass. Tying it tightly above the cut, the bleeding slowed then stopped.
"Pretty crowded here for midnight." | |

| He looked at her with malice in his eyes and his fangs glinting in the light of the moon in darkness. "I trust you are enjoying yourself?" | |
