My past brings that dominately to my attention. I usually don’t talk to anyone or even hunt with anyone.. I looked away for a moment then back to him. He just looked star struck. Like he’s never seen a woman were before. Unfortunately after that hunt, I was pretty sweaty and I had put on a tank top, showing most of my scars to the world. Like I said, I couldn’t stomach rats. I sat down against a tree, putting my bag off to the side and watching Seth. What an Irishman. Cute, and would be perfect. But I bet histories would collide and we wouldn’t stay even friends long. So what was with the show in London? Going massively insane from flashbacks like I or what? a shit face smirk played on my face, that was me to a T. Vince fucked me up good. Thanks a lot pal. My knees drew to my chest, keeping my bare feet planted to the ground just incase I could feel a vibration of something else coming. My arms wrapped around my legs, just kind of protecting myself but yet staying comfy. I didn’t think Seth would try and attack me right here and now. Both of us were full and very in a zen mood.

Seth listened intently as she spoke and when she asked what had gone wrong with him in the city he wasted no time in telling her the truth "I hunted down and killed a werewolf who had raped and murdered three human girls in London, thats what I do, I hunt and kill weres who kill or hurt humans". He was sure that what he had just said might have surprised her enough but he for some reason was in a sharing mood so he kept talking "My father had made me hunt and kill vampires and humans for decades until I got away from him, after he killed my human mother". He then walked over and sat down next to Aro and stared over at a large group of trees. He sighed and said "Thanks for helping me out anyway". He then took a deep breath and stood up. He then looked back at Aro as he said "I was having flashbacks of my brothers and sisters who were used as soldiers like me". Seth couldn't help but ball his hands into fists as he started to remember all the training he went through. Setheus then calmed down enough to ask "What were you having flashbacks of?".

My ears listened to his story, watching him bounce from place to place till he finally faced me and asked me of my story. God would I want to tell him? His sounded almost the same as mine, but with tweaks along the way. Of my old master..friend, creator. I was taken from my family and made into a human killer. We were the worst of our kind in Russia. Hunted like prey, but we killed most hunters that came after us…He was a brain twister, loved manipulating people. I was always his little pawn… But now I’m here, trying to stay away from feeding on humans. a pause broke from me, my mind going back to the old days, my grey pawns soaked in human blood. I want to be a normal person again… that kind of sank into a whisper. I didn’t like talking about it. In almost a minute I shared my life story to this boy I’ve only known for a half hour. Hunted with him, seen him naked and also watch him do what I do best. Have flashbacks. If only I could just get those to go away. I’d be a normal girl going to college probably by now if it wasn’t for Vince. I’d be at home, in Russia. I missed those snowy nights. Now I’m stuck in London with rain pooring over me and making me all cold and soggy all over again. Atleast I didn’t have to shower then.

Setheus listened to her story, it didn't sound to far off from his. He could tell she had been made to suffer. He couldn't stop himself from feeling a twinge of sympathy for her, followed by a small feeling of jealousy. She had been human once but he had been born the monster he was. He was also forced to live with about a hundred of teenage boys and girls who looked similar to him but unlike him were slavishly devoted to their father. Setheus then walked over to Aro and sat down in front of her. She was getting soaked by the rain. He jumped up the tree and climbed a short distance until he came up to a large branch which he bent to where it kept the majority of the rain away from her. He then did a backflip off and landed with near perfect precission in front of her, he couldn't deny he wanted to impress her. Seth then sat down again and smiled as he said "Did you ever think about confronting him? He may be your maker and teacher but he is no longer your master. You are free to live your own life". Seth had fought and tried to kill his father after his father killed his mother, he did the same thing to his twin brother Ian after they showed up on his door step and cost him his wife and child. He couldn't help but feel a small connection to Aro even after the short time they had met.

Confronting Vince?! Me? No, personally you do not know this man, you do not want to know him. He’s a bastard of a jackal and you never want to step a foot near this man. I hate to say it but you’re nuts. I don’t have enough strength in my body or in wolf form alone to even tackle his human form. This man was born to kill, born to hunt. He’s been around for over four hundred years. I’ve tried attacking him once, leaving me with most of these scars and a fear for him. After seeing his acrobatic skills, Aro smirked and watched him sit down once again. Ya, same past same present. This wasn’t going to work out. He’d flip out and I’d be on the brunt end of it. That’s what happened with Vince and then Ray from Italy. Ray was a huntsman himself and after the fact finding out I was were he tried killing me. What a man to stand up with his girlfriend for. Past is past. He wont cross the waters for me. He loves his Russia too much. So did I. A little compulsive on impressing aren’t you? a laugh came from me. It was true. Showing me how he hunted, showing off how he can move the rain for me. What next? Showing how he can lift the bearded lady at the fair to win me a teddy bear? That was a hoot itself thinking about that.

Setheus couldn't help but smile when she told him about this man named Vince. 400 years? Hah! His father Lucan was an 800 year old werewolf who had fought in enough wars to be covered in even more scars than Seth and Aro combined. Seth grimaced as he started to actually be impressed with his father's achievements. When she spoke of Russia he could tell she missed it. Seth couldn't stop himself from moving to where he sat right next to her. He smiled greatly when she teased him about being big on impressing people. "Well I don't usually have to many people to impress, most werewolves wont give another the time of day unless they want something from them" he said as he thought about all the werewolves he had met in his life, few of them were as nice as Aro. He then found himself staring at her again, something about her just seemed interesting to him. Suddenly he remembered his and her kills and ran as fast as he could over to the two dead deer and dragged them back over to where they weren't being smothered in rain. He then went to work trying to tear his kill apart, he wasn't going to waste good meat.

There was nothing left on the stag. I made damn well sure I took what I caught. It’d last me another week before I had to come and hunt once more. I watched seth clean his deer to the bone, that’s right. I didn’t let him finish his share because by the time I was done and coming to check Vince got to me. Damn it all. I felt bad now, not letting him finish his own prey. My body stretched out, legs coming undone and my arms stretched behind me by the tree. It already had been a long day. Hunting, meeting an new were, that was enough excitement for one day. So how long have you been in London? Any good places to even find human food? My spine shivered on the thought of human food. I never liked it. If I had to then ya, that was a different story. Her mind always liked the look of those t-bones sitting in the butchers shop. They looked yummy. I stood up, not wanting to sit any longer and Let him finish his meal. My mind kind of wondered, smelling the fresh air and the flowers that grew. It was the one scent I loved. If I could, I’d live in the woods forever. My mind snapped back as foot steps echoed into my ears. Shit, forgot we were close to a trail! Might wanna finish up quick and get out of here. I had no clue if we should move back into the city or into the forest.

Setheus listened intently to her as he removed all forms of meet from the doe and when he heard the sound of humans coming he wasted no time in moving. He pulled down a large leaf from the tree and wrapped up his meat. He looked to her and removed his pant and asked "Do you mind if I put my meat in your bag for now?". He didn't waste time when he began to hear the sounds of human voices. He put his stuff in her bag and bit down hard on a large stick as his change began to envelope his whole body. Setheus was a large black wolf in no time and in a matter of moments he was running through the woods. He had his food for the next few days but there was no doubt that if he didn't get out of there then the inticement of hunting a human would be too much to control. He was half way out of the woods when he let out a loud howl to Aro as if to ask if she was okay. When he finally reached the edge of the trees he stayed in the darkness of the woods waiting for Aro to catch up to him.

He grabbed my bag, stuffed it with meat and started running. Great. I’m probably stuck with these clothes for a long while then. Have to ditch all the rest. My legs started running, I didn’t care for the pain of morphing again just to run out of the forest. I was just a little slower than Seth and reached him about thirty seconds after his howl. I gently slapped him on the nose a shit eating grin on my face. Might want to hush up with that, don’t need humans trying to kill the only wolf in their forest. My body leaned up against one of the trees now, my arms crossing over my chest. London was right there, and I didn’t want to go back. I loved my woods too dearly but that was the only place that’s mask my scent and also I had to find a job to keep living anyhow. I had maybe enough to rent a cheap as hotel room for one week on me now from pick pocketing the drunk men stumbling around. I moved away from the tree now, rubbing seth’s hug wolf head, just enjoying the other wolf company now. He probably didn’t like being treated like a dog, but it was comforting me and he’ll just have to beat me for it in human form.

Setheus sat there quietly as she pet him on the head. He had truly never met someone who did that so it felt strange to let her do it. After he was sure that the humans hadn't folowed them he turned back into his human form with a few grunts of pain. When he was in human form he grabbed his old ripped up blue jeans and black hoodie and put them on. He turned and smiled at Aro as he said "Come on, ill take somewhere to get something to eat. He grabbed her hand and led her to a shabby looking restraunt a few blocks away. Once there he led her in and nodded at the cook who merely nodded back. After they were both seated Seth looked at Aro and smiled as he said "This is the best restraunt in the city, do you know why?". Right after he asked the cook brought out two plates with large raw steaks on them and placed them right in front of Seth and Aro. Seth smiled again as he said "Cause for one nobody comes in here hardly and for two the cook is a werewolf like you and me". The werewolf cook came back after a while and seth handed him a hundred dollar bill. Seth sighed as the cook took it and left and said "The only problem is that it is a really expensive place to eat at".

I had followed him into the restaurant and looked around. I sat down with Seth at a table and steaks were placed in front of us. Argh, more food. I think I can down this, but I hate doing so with someone else paying for the meal. Don’t like deer or need dessert after that? I chuckled. I started eating the steak, though I was plenty full already. After eating that, I got two plastic bags from a waitress there and put the meat from my bag into that and set it next to him. don’t need to forget your lunch. I dug through my bag, making sure nothing was drenched in blood. Only my sweatshirt was. Great. I pulled it out and tossed it into the trash and sat back down at the table. So what brought you here to London Seth? Chit-chat. Right. Why did I even bother. Because I like the guy for one, for two he’s cute. For three…Does he have a twin? No no no… Get that out of my head, nasty girl. Ok, because I like him, that’s why the chit chat. I pulled my hair back into a ponytail, letting it dry off my shoulders so I wouldn’t get too cold, but the restaurant was nice and warm. It wouldn’t take too long before I was a toasty 108.1 again.

Seth smiled as she tried to make a conversation. He took a bite of his steak and then realized how much he really wasn't hungry. Why the heck did he bring her to a restraunt after they already hunted? Seth thought about how stupid he was for a while until she asked him what brought him to london. He smiled as he said "I used to hunt here with my brothers and sisters during that huge fight for territory with the vampires. I was in Ireland a while back but my brother Ian sent me a letter asking me to meet him here in London.". Seth then laughed as he said "I am so sorry that I brought you here, I think I was nervous and sorta tried to ask you out on a day date.". He couldn't stop the small blush that came to his face. It had been a very long time since he had to look good in front of a girl. Seth was 178 years old and yet he felt like he was acting like a teenager. He smiled at her as he said "So what is it you do in London right now? Do you just bump into strangers and hunt with them all the time?. Seth growled at himself on the inside. He couldn't help but think to himself Now you're trying to make jokes?! God you are so lame!.

Date date? After only seeing him and thinking he was psychotic? He’s funny. Wow, just get into London and I get hit on. How lucky can a Russian girl be other than to go on a dating website and try to get an American husband so you can start a life? Seth was just one of those guys that I was either going to laugh about or my inside wants me to beat him up. No clue right now so I’ll go with the flow. Just got here, really right now I’m just trying to find a job and keeping my tracks gone. He mentioned the bumping into strangers. ha funny. Only bumped into one person. You bumped into me. a smirk played on my lips. It was nice of him though to actually think of a Russian girl to have a crush over. How sad. Now with his brother, I wonder if they’ll get into a vendetta over another. Be the monkey in the middle. At least I can watch a good fight, get some popcorn and sip on a soda and watch it. That’d be a good thing to watch. I chuckled in my head.

Seth nodded when she told him about her just trying to find a job. HE started top think about when he wanted to get away from his family. He had stayed in his wolf form for three years before he finally went back to being in human form. He remembered the feeling of running and hunting freely out in the wild with REAL wolves, not the ones that go half and half with humanity. He had thought about staying that way for the rest of his life but after he got the letter from his brother he decided that his little perminant vacation would have to wait. The idea of being a wolf for eternity made him wonder if she had ever thought about that same idea. Seth smiled as he said "Can I ask you something? Have you ever thought about being a wolf for the rest of your life? No more trying to be human but just living the free life of a wolf? I could tell that you enjoyed the feeling of running and hunting when we were in the woods.". He couldn't help but smile as he thought about how stupid he must have sounded. She was trying to live the life of a normal human, not one of an immortal wolf.

I did think about it for a long while. I tried my hand at it in Italy. It was about a year and a half when Vince found me there, So I moved into human form and ran. It’s harder for him to trace anyone in human form and to get to me in the middle of the city is going to drive him mad and keep out of it. The only time he comes into a city is late at night in wolf form. Easiest to catch his prey. That’s why I don’t morph too much, he catches the scent, he’ll kill the whole city if he wanted to. my eyes looked away from Seth for a moment, remembering that day in Italy.
It was just striking midnight, my ears could hear the near by clock tick away at the tole of twelve. My body laid underneath a small tree out in the woods. The snow had started to settle in this area of Italy, though it wasn’t much more than 2 inches. My eyes never opened, my snout only smelling the scent of must and trees. I was alone out here and it felt great. No boss, no humans to deal with trying to eat them, nothing but deer and other prey.
Something sharp rushed to my throat, my eyes jolting open and my mouth opening to show my fangs. My eyes only caught a glimpse of what was at my throat. Vince. His eyes showed greed and thirst. Taking me by my throat, he ripped me off the ground and into the side of a thicker tree. A yelp came from my maw as I landed, fighting my way back up and growling at him. If he could laugh, he’d be laughing right now. A growl answered back, a dominant one. A snarl ripped from my maw as I attacked, only to be whipped into another tree. It was useless, my mind told me to run, which is one thing I could out do Vince on.
I ran for days, only to reach the ocean and swim across it. My wolf form was so weak after swimming across the channel, I laid for days out in human form on the banks in a isolated area where no one would find me.
I looked back to Seth the only way I’d be able to live like that is if I got to go to the Americas. Vince would have no way crossing either oceans. My fingers intertind together around a glass of water, my eyes showed fear but yet strength. It was hard to see both at once, it was like a horror film.
