Kat remained silent, Cameron was human...People wouldn't be afraid of him if he got angry. He wasn't prone to kill the next living thing next to him if he couldn't control his emotions. Kat was. She was different, she was not human, she was a freak, or so, that's what she thought. Her gaze rose though, and she peered about the grocery store. It smelled of so many different things all at once. Vegetables, fruit, a variety of candies and junk food, but then Kat's nose picked it up, the scent of raw meat still ever so delectably drenched in blood. "Salad." she repeated, unaware of what she was really saying. Kat's fangs fought to reveal themselves, and she was ever so tempted to go over to that section. Her eyes showed flecks of red, and she fought the dying temptation to let her instincts take over. Subconsiously, Kat wandered away from Mom, and headed over to the meat section, giving into the temptation of the wonderful smelling product. She noticed that all the meat was fresh, for the smell of dead carcus was about the counter, and the man with the blood stained apron was clearly a butcher. She pushed her face against the glass, and stared in at the raw meat. The man was speaking to her, but Kat wasn't listening, all she was focusing on was the blood drenched, fresh, raw meat. She licked her lips, fangs wanting to come out, pupils dialating, and instinct taking over.

Mom quickly scooped up Kat away from the glass. Her strength was, amazing, to say the least. She then sasid "Cameron told me not to let you wander off, and if you want meat then you are going to have to earn it!" Mom had this strange rule that she enforced. If you wanted meat, then you would have to do chores, earn money, and then buy it. It actually worked. Cameron was as healthy as a horse since he didn't over eat and gained a liking towards veggies, and he got the sufficient amount of protein from his job. Mom then set Kat down and asked, "Are you going to be a problem child?"

Kat let out a squeak when she was scooped away from the meat. Her eyes fell to Mom with a confused gaze, but she rubbed her temples and all crimson flecks in her eyes were gone. "Ughhh.." she said, as if she had a headache, and rubbed her face. She shook her head 'No' to the question, and twitched, it was just like starving herself....Almost. "I'm sorry.." she said softly. "Sometimes things like that happen. I can't control my instin-.....Urges to wander off sometimes. This place is so new to me. I'll stay close." she said softly, her gaze falling to the ground. She'd almost slipped, it was so hard to keep her instincts under control. She sighed, and thought about this, 'Salad'. She cringed, that meant there were vegetables, and Kat didn't like vegetables, nor did her stomach agree with them. She sighed deeply, letting her hands go back into her pockets. She began to breath through her mouth, so she couldn't smell the food and such, and decided it best if she keep her gaze to the floor.

A ray of light hit Mom's face as she walked out of the grocery store with a paper bag filled with supplies and ingredients. "Girl, you are something else." She said as she looked over to the long sidewalk. She walked silently for a while before she stopped at the strong smell of smoke. Not smoke, drugs. She slowly looked to where the smell was coming from, and came to notice a boy with black hair, jeans and a black Sublime shirt on. He let out a cough as he slowly looked up, the chains rattling off his pants. He wasn't much older than Kat, and he stared at her and then to Mom. Mom slowly rose her hand, as she did to scare the children and make them back down, but he just coughed into his sleeve and stared at Kat. His bangs went over his eyes as he muttered something to himself silently. He began walking backwards, his eye's still on Kat, but soon he turned the corner and ran. Mom looked down to Kat and said "That's Damien. He was such a good boy before his parents were divorced. I wonder what happened?"

"Yeah...I've been told that before." she said, giving a soft chuckle at the frequency at which she'd heard that. Kat wrinkled her nose at the smell, and she felt whoosy it was so strong. Kat's eyes fell upon Damien and her heart sunk. Kat looked at the hand risen from Mom but her eyes didn't stay there long, and they came back to Damien. She watched him leave and she had the urge to run away after him. "Hey! Wai-...I can't just...I want to talk to him. Let me find out. I know where the house is. Please, Mom. I..." she thought for a moment for the right word. "I want to help him like you help me. I promise to come back. Then...I'll do whatever you want. Any chore! Be back soon! Before Cameron gets home!" she said frantically before she ran off after Damien. When she turned the corner, Kat sped up and used her more inhuman like speed until she was back in sight of the public. She could smell him, and as soon as she figured out the smell was close, she slowed down her pace. Her eyes glistened as she moved some bangs out of her face, and looked around. She was near a bunch of alley ways, and peered into them. Her sensitive eyes fell upon the one he was in and she walked into it. She stood feet away from him, and kept her distance, not to be so forward. "Hi...I'm Kat. Do you mind if I hang out with you? I'm new here...What's your name?" she asked, though she already knew it. She hoped that he didn't run away, she wanted to get to know him, finally, someone near her age, someone who was messed up too...

He slowly got up, speechless to Kat. It seemed like he was trying to smile, but all his cheek did was twitch. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a bottle crash against the side of the alley. Damien stared up at a group of teenagers walking towards him as they said "Damien! Where's our money?" They stopped in front of Damien as he stared at them straight in the eye. "Maybe we should just take it out of your girlfriend instead." The teenager said and turned to Kat, but suddenly leaped back and yelped in pain. Damien had drawn a switchblade and cut his wrist. Near a vein. "DON'T TOUCH HER!" He yelled after them as they made tracks. He then turned to her, and wiped the switchblade on his jacket. He put his switchblade back onto his belt and spoke in his rather raspy voice, "Why did you follow me?" It sounded weak, probably from the drugs.

Kat jumped at the sudden crash of the bottle and looked at the teenager. She was about ready to rip the teen's hand off when he threatened the violence towards Damien. But a pang of fear hit her when it was directed towards her, she didn't want to have to scare them away. She jumped again at the sudden movement that Damien had made to protect her, and was quite suprised at it too. "Thanks..." she said softly. She couldn't help but to smile slightly, and looked at him, thinking about his question she took a breath. "I...Don't know. You're really the first person not to insult me or stare at me in this town. And I guess I just wanted to hang out with you...You don't mind do you?" she asked softly. She moved some of the multi-colored bangs out of her face and gave a weak smile. Kat felt connected to him, some how, and just wanted to make him feel better..

"I guess that makes two of us." He said after her first comment, but he stopped and thought after her second. "Fine, but don't ask about me or my personal life.." His voice was somewhat low, and the raspy flow of it made him sound a little sinister. Not maniacal, but sinister. He then began walking out of the alley, seeming as if to not care if Kat followed him or not. His hands were rammed into his pockets, and that was when he heard Mom's voice. "Kat?" She called, and Damien quickly ran back into the alley trying to avoid her. He was a fast kid, and he slid to a stop next to Kat. The way he ran was, animal like. Also, he was on all fours when he grinded to a stop, and his teeth were slightly grit. Mom passed by the alley, and a slight growl eminated from him. "That woman is always trying to help everyone, it makes me sick."

Kat listened, and she nodded, "I won't." she said softly. She was going to follow him, and took a step when her ears picked up Mom's voice. And before she knew it Damien was back by her side, hunching down on all fours, growling, like...Well, a dog. She looked down to him, and then she kneeled down to his level. "Well, I don't really know what's sickening about her behavior, but she's making a salad, and that makes me sick." she said, more of a joke then anything. "But I know what you mean. Where I'm from, I was surrounded by people that said they all wanted to help and stuff, but they didn't really care. And it always made me angry." she said softly. She then stood up and held a hand out to him, smiling as she did. She wanted to ask him about the drugs he was on, but she didn't want to pry, not yet. She could smell them, and it made her feel bad, because she knew what it was like with drugs. The asylum gave everyone drugs there, that was their number one method of keeping people 'sane' when it only made them worse. Kat used to have to take several types of pills a day, and she soon became addicted to them. But she broke the addiction later on in life, and she hoped she could help him do the same.

He completely ignored her hand and did not laugh at her joke as he said "Filthy. They will never know what it is like to have pure blood in them." His words were barely audiable as he began walking towards the end of the alley. "I hate them all, that means you too." He said as he stared back at her. He then bit his bottom lip and then spoke in a kinder tone "At least you're bearable." He then fled from the alley in a quick walk. His hands still rammed into his pockets, fiddling through the various pill bottles in them.

Kat thought for a moment, hating them all sounded like something she would say. "Hey!" she called out, when he walked away. She hurried after him, moving her hair out of her face she quickened up, and turned the corner. She seen him and then caught up to him, walking by his side. "You did say I could hang out with you." she said softly. She shoved her hands in her pockets, not really imitating him, but just because it was comfortable. "Please don't run away. I'm not like everyone else. And...Well, I don't want you to hate me. Because I think you're actually really kind." she said softly and a little shyly. Her gaze fell down to the ground, "You're really the only...Friend sort of thing I have." she said, looking up to him, eyes glistening.

He turned to her and grabbed her by the shoulders. He quickly let his lips hit hers as he exchanged a small kiss. he then backed slowly and spoke in a whisper as he said "I like you, but the only thing you'll get from me is trouble." He then turned and began sprinting, first on two legs, but he soon dropped down to four and began to go faster. Damien hit a corner and quickly began hopping fences as he made his way as far away from Kat. he truthfully didn't want to, but he had to.

Kat was quite shocked at this action, and her heart skipped a beat. She almost melted right then and there. It took her just a moment to realize that he was now running away from her. "Wait! Don't go!" she called out, and she ran after him, once again. She turned the corner and she followed after him, she was quite the fast one too. She managed to get over the fences, not as fast, but she managed. "Damien!" she called out, "Damien! Wait up! Let me talk to you! Please!" she called out. Kat didn't know why she felt so compelled to go after him. She really didn't, but she did anyways. "Please don't leave me! I don't want to be alone! Damien wait up! Damien! Please!" she called out. Kat felt that she would chase him until the ends of the earth.

Damien turned and snarled at her as his eyes had now become slits and a crimson red. Something was happening, something not normal. "Back away!" He yelled at her as he began shaking his head rigorously, trying to snap into reality almost.

"You...You're not human.." she said, stopping dead in her tracks. "Damien..." she said softly. She suddenly felt a ray of hope, and smiled gently, "Damien. You can control yourself." she said softly. She took several steps towards him, with her hand out towards him, she didn't show fear, and she didn't show any distrust towards him. She held out her hand to him, "I trust you." she said, her voice did not waver at all. She was telling the truth, "Even if you hurt me. I still trust you." she said softly. She stopped standing only a foot or so away from him, Kat didn't want to lose him. And for some reason, she trusted him.
