North

Within the Northern vicinity of the city, the wealthy gather behind meticulously trimmed hedges and high-class architecture. The pristine streets are paved with stone and the storefronts are brightly lit and inviting - for the right clientele. In the North, every establishment is eager to cater to the rich and the wealthy. Many such places are used to the sometimes peculiar requests of the otherworldly but here there is little that money cannot buy - whether it happens to be illegal or merely involves looking the other way. Vampires and Dark Hunters are often found upon these Northern streets, their long lives often contributing to their sizable wealth which allows them the luxuries that the North provides.

This Time I'm Not Scared

Of course it would be bad parenting if a child died by eating poisonous leaves in front of their parents. Telling an adult they are bad parents is one sure fire well of making one hell of an enemy. Adults don't like being told they are raising their children incorrectly. It's a personal attack. Now, I'm not saying every parent is good at raising children, but my God there are some parents that should never have children in the first place. I do agree with him. I do agree it isn't the trees fault if the child decides to eat its leaves. Natural Selection is just one of those things that we take for granted. Another thing I take for granted his my own safety. I learned a terrible lesson and discovered that I wasn't as safe as I always thought. I thought I could handle myself and make sure that no terrible harm would come to me. I was wrong. One silly little mistake at the park and I am what I am today. I do not appreciate this male accusing me of being afraid of him. I'm not afraid of him. I am just uncertain of him and I think I am right to be. I easily shrug my shoulders as I politely point out to him his error in judging me.

"Do not mistake my apprehension of you for fear. I simply don't trust others well, last time I did, I got bit and suffered the consequences."

You know next time I see a kid or a young teenager talking to some stranger, I am SO going to them and telling them to stop it. I am the walking child poster of the reason why you don't befriend strangers. In fact you'd think I learned my lesson and not talk to strangers, but here I am talking to some random male vampire in the dark alley. Oh my god I have seriously got to stop doing this. I really should walk away. I should just leave him here and just leave. I need to go home and go spend some time with the horses that are there. It is best if I do, and I know this, and yet, I am dying to be around others. It isn't surprising that he seems so shocked that I would give him money. It's just three dollars. Anyone could have three dollars. I'm just nice enough to give it to him, although I really should just turnaround and leave. Looks like he can't control his facial features very well, shock and amazement is on his face and I see it before he can stop it. I can't help but tilt my head to the side as he speaks he isn't like other vampires, and I honestly don't know what he means. So, of course I speak up with a curious note in my voice.

"So, you have a bad memory?"

I mean what else could it possibly be? His invitation for me to come with him catches me off guard, but I try to keep my face impassive. I mean, yes that is nice of him to invite me, but I don't think he really wants me around for me. All guys are the same. They want something, it could be attention, money, sex, who the hell knows? We just met and I doubt very seriously my award winning personality is the reason why he wants me to hang out with him and go to the mall. We just came from the food court and he wants to go back? I'm pretty sure that vampire might be there and I don't need to be getting in trouble. But I still want to be in his presence. Dumb horse side. Why the hell did I have to be half a horse? So, I hold my voice lightly as I try to pinpoint the real reason why he wants me to accompany him â€" I need to know these things.

"I can, but why do you want my presence? Am I going to be company or your personal walking bank?"
