Olivia followed Locke all the way to the grocery store, but did not follow him inside. Grocery stores usually only had one exit and one entrance, both right next to each other. So Locke would have to exit the same way he went in. As such, Olivia picked a a nice red car and sat on its hood to wait until Locke came back outside. She kept her attention on the doorway the entire time, even though she appeared to just be sitting there and admiring her fingernails, just to make sure she wasn't going to miss anything. It wasn't long until Locke came back outside, carrying his bag of foodstuffs. Olivia let him walk past her before standing up and starting to follow him again down the sidewalk. She didn't bother to hide the fact that she was following Locke either, because she had been rather bored before and this wouldn't be fun if it didn't involve some sort of chase. In other words, Olivia liked to watch her victims squirm a little before she caught up to them. And, she could tell that Locke was uneasy given how long she had worked as an assassin so she could tell when someone was uneasy.

Izzy stared up at the ceiling for a little while longer as muffled voices sounded in her ears. She took shallow breaths and her fingertips felt cold, then something moved into her field of vision, but she couldn't quite tell what it was, as the edges of her vision were going dark. She tried to focus on it and then it moved further into her field of vision; it was Alissa. Izzy smiled lightly, and her words became clearer. Izzy reached up and placed her hands on Alissa's shoulders and said, "Hold on to something," and she leaned up and bit into Alissa's neck, letting her blood leak out into her throat as she pulled Alissa closer to her. Izzy didn't know how long she stayed like that, but she kept her fangs in Alissa's throat until she passed out and fell backwards, her wound healing quickly, and her breathing heavy.
======
Nathan frowned at Aris and replied simply, "Yes, she's my friend. She's saved my life twice, and she means no harm. She and the human there have an... interesting relationship. Now please stop trying to kill her." Nathan held his sword steady, he wasn't sure if Aris would attack him and try to "protect" Alissa from Izzy. Even if she wasn't going to, he didn't want to let his guard down around the other hunter, she might try and attack Izzy the first chance she got, even if Nathan explained to her that she was a friend.

Alissa gasped as Izzy suddenly grabbed her and pulled her closer, she mumbled something about holding onto something before the human felt the pain of a bite and then the wash of warmth that came with it, beginning to breath heavily she shook as she tried to hold her self up. minutes passed before Alissa began to feel Dizzy "Izzy..." she whispered before the vampire's jaw went slack as she slipped into unconsciousness and Alissa felt herself fall on top of her, Drowsy and shaking she was relived to find the woman breathing and simply relaxed where she was un aware of anything going around her. she was simply happy to see Izzy was getting better.
----------------------------------------
The smell of humans blood flooded the room as Aris watched the Vampire begin bleeding the girl and Aris clenched her teeth "you say she saved your life? i don't believe it, she is nothing but a blood sucker! they don't help hunters, they only kill them when they get the chance, you of all people should know this" she hissed quietly for some reason as the human and vampire appeared to pass out suddenly, she could not understand why Nathan had not just killed the creature already, she seemed to be bleeding the human dry.

Nathan frowned at Aris and said, "You still haven't changed. Everything's still black and white to you. Look, she's saved both my life and the girl's life twice, and that's the truth, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't try to kill her. Alissa will be fine in a little while, Izzy just took a little more blood than she usually does. Now can you please act like a civilized person and not go around stabbing people?" Nathan didn't want to keep Aris pinned up against the wall like this, it would be too easy for her to stab him and just shove him aside, but for once, her black and white view of the world helped, she probably wouldn't hurt another hunter just to get to a vampire, she would wait until she had the chance and strike. Nathan figured Izzy would be okay, and Alissa would be too, they just needed to sleep, but sleep was what they shouldn't be doing around Aris. Nathan just wanted this to be resolved peacefully, with none of his friends being stabbed again, he hoped Aris would listen to him.

Rath really had no idea what he was doing as he stormed the streets for his Master. no one seemed to know where he had gone and frankly Rath was getting more and more irritated by the second, "white haired man about yay tall red eyes come on you cant miss him!" Rath shouted at the man he had hoisted in front of him by the collar, the citizen nearly peed his pants as he shook his head and apologized frantically, "P-p-please let me go sir, i haven't seen your friend" the man stammered and Rath dropped him suddenly "that isn't any help, what the ******** is wrong with people!" he shouted irritably as the man scampered off, he was highly agitated now for some reason, and the damn noise coming from the speakers wasn't helping at all, "why the hell do they have to play that crap all through the streets" he cursed as he picked up a rock from the ground and threw it at the speaker causing it to bust and fall to the ground.
----------------------------------------------
Alissa watched Nathan silently for a few moments before heaving a sigh, he was right about her views, she had never heard of a vampire being nice to any hunters, but at the same time if they had both wanted to simply survive it was bound to happen, she nodded slightly as she relaxed and went to put the weapons away, if Nathan had been traveling with her, Aris was sure he would have taken her out long ago if she had shown any signs of a threat, "so that girl has been with you for some time now I'm guessing?" she asked as she still watched the two with her cyan glare, "she must be her bait" she said giving the nickname to many of the humans specific vampires visited frequently, they were usually picked up by the hunters before they could be killed and used to capture the creatures that visited them frequently.

Locke frowned as he continued to head back to the motel, however he now moved at an even faster pace. He bobbed and weaved his way through people that way if someone was following him it wouldn't be easy. He was mentally telling himself it was all in his head and no one was following him. The more he thought this the faster he moved until he was nearly running barely avoiding crashing into innocent people.

Olivia smirked as Locke picked up the pace to try to get away. She matched his pace easily and actually started gaining on him slightly. Granted as soon as they got to more crowded areas, it was a little bit slow going, but she was still slowly but surely getting closer and closer to being behind Locke. Eventually, she was only three steps behind him. It was only a matter of time until she could actually reach out and touch his shoulder. At that point though, Olivia could no longer wait, she put on a burst of extra speed and reached out her arm to grab at Locke's right shoulder.

Nathan sighed and let go of the female hunter as she put her daggers away. He kept his sword in one hand, just in case. He rolled his eyes at her comment on how Alissa was bait, and replied, "Please don't call her that, I told you, she and Izzy have an... interesting relationship." He turned to the room where the two women were laying on top of one another. He walked inside and picked up the two of them and set them on the bed, sighing lightly and rolling Alissa off of Izzy, at which point Izzy mumbled something and wrapped her arms around Alissa again, obviously still sleeping. Sighing, he looked down at the broken door and said, "We're going to have to pay for that... Aris, why are you going around attacking random vampires who haven't even done anything?" Nathan asked, sitting down on his bed next to Izzy and Alissa's, looking over at the female hunter who he hadn't encountered in quite some time, since they decided to take different parts of the country.

Locke frowned as he kept walking, he wasn't sure how far the motel was but he wanted to get to Rath as quickly as possible. He was sure people probably thought he was crazy, but at this point he was so panicked he hardly cared. It was a few seconds later he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned to see Olivia and nearly flew into the air from fear. "Its you!" He nearly yelled as he fell back. "I thought you were dead like the rest of them" He said. He wasn't sure if he should feel relieved it was a familiar face or panic because it was one of the vampires from the castle.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diana had been walking for what seemed like quite a while, mainly just browsing and occasionally buying something she felt she could use. She held her purse with her containing the few things she had purchased. It was as she began walking she herd yelling and turned to see what was obviously a demon who seemed to be hassling some poor soul. She sighed as she became aggravated, just what she needed some dark demonic irritant causing a ruckus. She stormed after the demon and eventually yelled at him "Do you mind not making a scene, because you're really starting to ruin my day" She ran a hand through her hair moving a few strands from in front of her face. "What slow day decided to just scare the crap out of anyone nearby" She said as she glared at him.

Aris stayed where she was as Nathan moved to care for both the human and the vampire, "interesting my but, I've seen it before, blood that she cant resist, i can't believe this girl isn't dead already, how many times have you had to take her to the hospital?" she asked with a sigh leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. "don't worry about the door, i can fix it" she said viewing the damage with a nod, it was still in a relatively decent shape compared to her last busts, "i was jumping to conclusions, this town used to be riddled with the blood suckers before i got here, just recently killed off one of the big names, they were all kinda fighting for dominance in this area," she explained as she picked up the warped door and carved a few runes into it, pricking the back of her hand with the claw she supplied a drop of blood to one of the runes and the door flexed slightly before jumping from her hand and securing it's self to the hinges and door way without delay, "i always come prepared for this, i assumed she might have been another vampire whom the others knew or was coming to run the city too" she said with a slight sigh and a yawn after using some of her energy supply to revert the door to its original state.
---------------------------------------------------
Rath swirled around to see the woman and felt his jaw tighten, there was something about her that he didn't like, "well pardon me for ruining your day, but mine wasn't all that great to start with either" he said watching her and gaining a full whiff of her scent, everything registered angel and his jaw clenched tighter, holy hell, i loose Locke and an Angel decides to show up, this really isn't a good day for me he thought wanting to rip her hair out as she messed with it. " Who cares if i decide to scare people or not, or were you thinking of stopping me?"

Diana watched as Rath turned to face her and spoke to her, she could tell he meant what he said in the rudest way possible. She sighed as she wondered why she had to deal with all the crazy people. However, when he continued to speak she held a hand up as if to silence him "I care, I live here, you are in my territory, and I don't like you already" She said clearing up a few points. She was very limited in her powers while in this form, but she was ready to knock some sense into the foul creature. "Now might I suggest you calm down and act civilized before I have to show you how to act" She said rather calmly.

Olivia could literally almost smell the panic and fear radiating off of Locke as she caught up with him. Her smirk widened at his reaction to her hand on his shoulder. This soon turned into a slight grin as she replied. "Yo!" she said aloud, giving him a sort of valley girl wave even though she absolutely hated doing so. It was merely to possibly freak Locke out even more than he already was at the moment. "What? You thought I was dead? How rude! You wound me, Locke! How could you think that I was dead?" she asked him, being completely over-dramatic in the way she reacted. "I was away when the mansion was attacked and destroyed. When I got back, it looked to me like you and everyone else was dead, so I guess maybe the favor has been returned." Olivia stated softly leaning her face in close to Locke's just to see his reaction, as she smirked at him for good measure.

Locke frowned as he watched Olivia's overdramatized act. He couldn't help but wonder how much she said was ever true. He attempted to get free, but with little success. He had to admit she scared him and to make matters worse she kept getting closer. "Well, I guess we're both lucky that way" He said with a gulp. He wasn't sure if she was going to be friendly or not, but whichever it was he hoped Rath showed up soon.

Rath twisted his neck to releive the stress that was building there, it was his nature to bug angels and what not, but his true concern was Locke for the time being. he heaved a hard sigh as he watched the angel "alright, ill calm down" he said turning away from her and storming back down the road. he was irritated with the damned woman, but he needed to find Locke before she realized what he was looking for. The witch was his weakness, and knowing how much he seemed to care for the creature he didnt think it would be easy to just take the soul and run.

Olivia burst out laughing. She had noticed Locke's nervousness and she found it rather funny. The vampire took a step back from Locke to let him calm down at least a tiny bit before she tried freaking him out again. Olivia stopped laughing as spontaneously as she had started. She gave Locke a serious look. "You don't think I'm telling the truth about where I was when the mansion was attacked do you?" she asked him, narrowing her eyes slightly. Though, it wasn't in any way a threat. She was just studying Locke and taking stock of his reactions. "Well, for once, I am telling the truth. I wasn't any where near the mansion when it was destroyed. I was off on a job actually, so you can relax on that matter." Olivia stated simply, giving a dismissive wave of her hand.
She then gave Locke a disapproving look and a frown. He was acting as if she intended to harm him. She crossed her arms over her chest and gave a slight pout at him. "Relax. If I was going to kill you, don't you think I would have done so by now?" she asked him flatly before continuing with her next thoughts. "Now. On to other things. I have a couple of questions for you, so don't think I'm letting you get off without at least making a conversation. Since you made it out alive from the attack on the mansion, do you know if anyone else is alive too?" Olivia wanted answers, and she was going to get them out of Locke one way or the other so it was in his best interest to tell her what he knew now. She wasn't about to explain why, but she was concerned for some of the others who had been at the mansion while she was living there. "If so, I want you to show me where they are."
