Alexis's eyes darted up to her face as she watched it for a moment and then nodded quickly. "Yes, I want to go." She agreed finally, somewhat entranced at the thought of going somewhere without her mother for once.

"Very well. We must be quiet and quick," I said, motioning her to follow me. I ran through the shaddows, stealthily, yet still quickly.

Alexis never turned back to look at her mother, nor father, running after Alice, light on her feet, but not as fast as other vampires. What she lacked she would always make up for in other aspects.

I paused when we made it to the next street. There was a bar on one corner... my forehead creased. I hadn't had human blood is so long, but I still didn't want blood from some one who was drunk. I pointed Alexis in the other direction. "Watch, if some one comes, you may choose if to attack, and when. It's all up to you darling. But make it a good choice."

Alexis crouched down slightly and stayed there waiting in the shadows as she watched several people come out. And fortunately for them, their smell didn't interest her-- not until a mid-twenties work man came by that Alexis stood up at attention, feeling the need to bite him.

The moment I felt his scent, I too had difficulting not biting him. I paused then I nudged her, a bit too roughly, "Get him!"

Alexis stumbled some and hissed over her shoulder at Alice before she walked out in front of the man, keeping her face down though as not to scare him away with her red eyes. She didn't typically have to think about how to attack-- her instincts took over, but this man's neck was much to high for her to reach and she'd learned about biting legs now.

I leaned against the wall, barely able to control myself. I could hear his pulse, I could almost feel his blood running down my throat. I hated myself for this; I hated to betray aden and feed, but I had to.

The man frowned and reached out his hand to the little, dirty girl in front of him. Though it wasn't until he saw the blood all over the front of her shirt that he tensed up.
Alexis glanced up and she caught onto his hand before he pulled it back, biting her teeth into his wrist, blood gushing out everywhere over her face and down the front of her-- so much delicious blood.
He shouted out in anguish and pain, "DEMON CHILD!" He cursed as he tried to pull her off, but she refused to let go of his arm and he finally picked the five year old up by how she was holding onto him, swinging her around and into the closest glass window of the shop they stood beside.
Alexis let her grip go, shouting instead when she went through the window, shattering it and rolling to a stop inside the dark shop, not moving.

My eyes widened and I tensed up. "Oh god, oh god... oh $h!t!" I had to get that man away so I could get Alexis out of here... I came out of the shaddows and with a paniced look on my face neared the man. "Oh god, what was that? We have to get you to a doctor!" I kept my eyes down, trying to force the red away, but I could still smell his blood, I could still hear his pulse, it was racing now. Fear made the blood so much more rich. I wanted him now. I needed the blood. I knew I would not be able to hold off much longer...
I kept my head down, as if examining his hand. I had to wait; we were in trouble now and I knew it. I had to be very careful.
