Ashes to Ashes

The small vampire's mind was quite pleased with the switch of language that Sebastian took. It had been a long time indeed since she had heard another speak her native tongue and it came back to her with a wonderful familiarity that created a sort of amicability to her demeanor. Her crystal blue eyes practically danced with delight as she looked back at Sebastian, putting on a little show for him twirling about and questioning about her dress. Being complimented and doted upon were of course the best ways to keep her in good behavior. It also helped to let her have her way too but so far Sebastian seemed to be well versed in finding ways of compromise which Anna met with minimal fight. Anna smiled at Sebastian's itinerary which involved finally getting her present. "J'aimerais beaucoup ça." (I would like that very much.) See, she could be polite.

Anna followed Sebastian willingly towards the bathroom, waiting patiently for him to finish dressing and being presentable for the outside world. "Puis-je avoir un indice?" (Can I have a clue?) The child was still very curious on what it could be that Sebastian had for her present that required going all this way. The trip had been a difficult one for her though there were highlights that she had had fun. Mostly having his sole attention was delightful for her. Anna shifted as Sebastian passed her declaring food first and went to the table to call downstairs. Her stomach clenched in reminder of her hunger as she stood there watching his back as he picked up the receiver. It was then that Anna's ability tugged, immediately snapping her attention to the door which protected the lovers...or had. Like a fishing line her ability had been laid out and with the passing of one of the bodies so close to the other side of the wall did it snag their essence.

With a fly caught in her web it was truly impossible for Anna to spare them now as the predator within her flared to life and sprung upon that door. Her mere strength alone once she griped the doorknob split the lock allowing the vampire to invade the neighboring room. The room was dark save for the light from the television casting a faint white hue. The door snapping had the woman still in the bed shriek in surprise and fright as she clamored to sit up clutching the sheet to her chest. The sudden appearance of...a child..was what caused the woman to be stunned in place. It was the man who had wandered towards the bathroom that Anna's net had caught. He too had jumped at the invasion, though his shout was in anger rather than fright but like the woman he was thrown by the child that stood there. It took Anna mere seconds to take in the scene, the nude man to her right and the woman hiding on the bed to her left. Her features crinkled in disgust, sorely upset that it had been him she had found and with a flick of her wrist sent the man backwards as he had been tackled by a linebacker. In that moment of him dealing with the seizing of his muscles and being thrown Anna rounded on the woman, baring her fangs with a hardened bloodthirsty gaze, circling the bed as the woman attempted to scuttle from one side to the other as if she could get away. No...Anna was just toying with her food now. All thoughts of being on good behavior were gone. She was hungry and she was going to feed as she had always done in the past.
