He nodded slowly, smiling gently. "Do you want to drink first?" he asked, but he quickly realized she was asleep. "Maybe after," he said softly to himself.

A couple minutes later there is a knock on the door. I don't even stir at the sound. There is continuous knocking and then the sound of a keycard sliding in the door. First walks in Daemon, he walks in and keeps the door open as a young girl walks in. "Thank you, Daemon." She says as she slips him a quick kiss. She looks at the room and her eyes fall judgmentally on Tylen. "Who's he?" She asks Daemon as if Tylen isn't even there. "He's not the person your here to see." Daemon says to her. "Where is she?" He quickly asks Tylen. Through out this I was sleeping like a rock.

Tylen stiffens at the sound of a knock, but doesn't answer. He shifts slightly, brushing Arianna's hair out of her face, shaking her gently. Arianna, it's time to wake up. Your sister's here, he said with his mind, not wanting to give it away until either Daemon or Arianna herself wanted this new girl to know.

I move slightly as I heard Tylen's mental voice. I opened my eyes and looked around very quickly. I could hear her thoughts as I tried to figure out what was going on. Daemon hadn't told her that I was here, that I was alive in some form. "I'm right here." I moaned to Daemon. Alex seemed surprised to here the voice of another girl. She looked to Daemon. "Its okay." He reassured her. I got out of the bed with my back to them, trying to keep a little bit of mystery. She was confused as it was I didn't need to help her with that. "Remember I said you would meet someone you loved and haven't seen in a long time?" Daemon asked Alex as I rose. She nodded and he went on. "Well, I know how upset you were when she disappeared..." Alex cut him off. "Arianna..." She whispered under her breath. Her eyes were starting to tear as she suddenly recognized my back. I turned to face her and saw her for the first time. She was taller then I remembered. She looked like she had gone through my closets at home and decided to become like me as much as mom would let her. I knew I had hurt them, but this was something-else. Seeing the pain in her eyes was almost more then I could bare. "Hello, Alex. Its been a long time." I said trying to strike up a conversation. "You left me!" She ran at me and starting punching me. I stood there and took it. Daemon came over and took her off me gently. "Calm down." He whispered in her ear. "Who's this?" She pointed at Tylen. "Is this who took you away?" She had tears streaming down her face. "No, the person who took me away died." I looked down and whispered. "This is Tylen." I reached out my hand for his. I was shaking like crazy.

Tylen took her hand and pulled her close, almost protectively. He hadn't liked to see this other girl hit her; even if she was Arianna's sister. He steadied her, gently, trying not to let her fall.

Alex glared at him. She had pure hate in her eyes. "I think I'm done seeing her." Alex said as she turned around to Daemon and the door. "You... are you sure?" Daemon questioned. He looked genuinely upset. "Yes." Alex stated her hand on the door nob. I stood there leaning against Tylen as I tried to read her. It was so hard. She was so upset that all I could get was her anger. "Don't you want to know why I left? Why I didn't come back?" I let out. I wanted her to leave, but I knew she had questions. She stopped mid-stride. "I know what you are. I know what he did to you." She turned and looked at me. "I told myself that when I saw you again I would be glad to see you, and I am, but its hard to see you as my sister with that thing wrapped around you like an expensive coat. Your not my sister anymore. You are what I have been trying to learn to protect myself from since you left." There was a sudden pain in her eyes. "I still love you, but I... I just can't see you like this." She turned and left. Daemon was right on her heels. "That went horrible." I said as I sat down on the bed. " I'm sorry you had to see that. I'm sorry that it went that way and I kinda put all of this on you but do you think I should go after her?" I looked up at Tylen.

"I think..." he sighed. "I think you should give her time - I don't think she meant most of what she said. Maybe becoming a slayer, but... she's your sister. If she really doesn't want to see you again, I wouldn't test it. If she does, she'll come back." he sighed. He had almost wanted to add that he hadn't been the one to change Arianna - he could tell that was what Alex had been thinking. But that would be useless and would most likely get him killed. He more than anything didn't want that to happen.

"Thank you." I was still upset, but there wasn't really anything I could do about it. "I need to go out. I need to be around people." I said as I stood up and wiped a stray tear from my eye. "I'm going to go down and gamble my tears and money away." I stop and giggle at the idiocy of what I had just said. "Wanna join me?" I look at Tylen.

He smiled lightly, "I'll venture downstairs, too," he said with a nod.

I grabbed my coat and headed to the door and down the hall. So much had happened in a span of 24 hours and I hoped that it would all end soon. I was getting tired of this place. There were too many new things going on. I just needed an escape. I pressed the button on the door and quickly made my way inside. Once Tylen got in and the doors closed I reached for his hand and grabbed it. The scary part was this stranger was my rock here in this little podunk town. He reminded me so much of Alex but at the same time he was so different. I allowed myself to lean into him with my head resting on his shoulder.

Tylen held her hand and the other one snaked across her shoulders. He was watching her carefully, checking to see if she was alright. She just seemed nervous, but there was something else, too. Fear.

I felt safe with him, this man of whom I knew nothing. I just needed to get used to this place, or decide to leave it. "Thank you." I whispered into Tylen's shirt. There was nothing else I could think of to say in the quiet elevator.
