[Evil Tink]

He smiled, holding Holden close, "A sandwich would be fine. As long as you eat, I'm content." He sighed as he heard Hayden yelling again, "Unfortunately, I cannot join you. I have to go kick out the damn bird and kick Hayden's butt for bringing it here." He gave Holden a quick, passionate kiss on the lips before disappearing.

[Bovice]

"Ok." Holden said with a nod. He whined when Solomon broke the kiss. "I hate it when he does that." He said licking his lips. They came to the bottom of the steps, he sighed. "I'm sorry I am going to be sending you back so early." He said with a small frown. He walked into the kitchen and set Melody on the counter. Holden grabbed a few things from the refrigerator and started to build a sandwich.

[Evil Tink]

Melody stood next to him, 'It's okay. We can always spend time together later.' She smiled, watching him as he made his sandwich.

[Bovice]

"Yes we can." Holden said with a smile. He finished making his turkey, ham, and cheese sandwich. He cut it on the diagonal, and put the stuff back into the refrigerator. He looked at Melody, "Do you sleep?" He asked gently. He took a bite of his sandwich, "I miss not having to sleep." Holden thought to himself.

[Evil Tink]

'I do..somethings. Mystic says that I get sleepy when I'm "low on power" or something like that.' She shrugged, 'Do you miss being a vampire?'

[Bovice]

Holden finished the half of sandwich. "I do, like earlier today I could of wiped that shop keepers mind." He said with a sigh. "And I miss the heightened senses. And I was able to turn into an animal." He said with a small chuckle. He picked up the other half of his sandwich and took a bite. "I wasn't able to figure out all of the powers I had." Holden said taking another bite.

[Evil Tink]

Melody nodded, 'I see. Would you go back to it if offered?' After a moment of silence, when she noticed that Holden was almost done with his sandwich, she frowned, 'I suppose you're going to call Mystic or Azriel now right?'

[Bovice]

"Yes I would." Holden said with a sigh. "I was going to, but if you want to just lay with me for a little bit before you go that's fine as well." He said putting the plate in the sink. He picked Melody up with a smile, "I don't know why I'm so tired, I slept for six months." Holden said heading to his room.

[Evil Tink]

Melody shrugged, 'I don't know..maybe cause you're not used to being awake?' She rested up against him as he held her, 'It won't be a bother if I stay while you sleep..right? I can sleep as well even if it doesn't help me. It's nice to relax.'

[Bovice]

Holden shrugged as he entered his room. "No it wouldn't be a bother." He said with a smile. "But if you feel weak at all, wake me up." He said laying Melody down on the bed. He smiled as he walked to the other side of the bed. He sat down and leaned against the headboard, "Just don't wait until the last minute to wake me up." Holden said leaning his head back, shortly he was asleep.

[Evil Tink]

She curled up next to him, 'I won't. I promise.' She closed her eyes, blocking out the noises. She soon found herself in a light sleep.

***

The rather slim female sighed silently pulled her hood over her face to hide her eyes. Her ice blue nails trailed along the length of her blade as she held it, watching the two people in the room. "Well look at that Abraxas...you were right...for once." She looked over, her ice blue irises glowing brightly against the black sclera, "You might actually get paid this time."

[Bovice]

Abraxas' smiled and his white teeth lit up the dark room. "Hm, you know I am liking the sound of that." He said running his hand through his gray hair. "As I said I will take the boy and distract everyone, so you can get the girl." He said as he moved closer to Holden. He put his hand over Holden's mouth, his long black claws were hovering over Holden's jugular. He started pulling Holden's energy away, so he wouldn't struggle. Suddenly he had the boy by the throat in the air. "Farewell for now Irith." Abraxas said as he disappeared.

[Evil Tink]

She smiled, her sharp teeth glittering slightly, "Have fun~" She stepped over to Melody, gently brushing some hair from the girl's face, "It's a shame I can't keep you as my own pet. Azriel really knows what she is doing..her skill is unbeatable." Suddenly, she dragged her sharp claw like nails along the fake skin of Melody's face, "Time to wake up my dear~"

Melody turned sightly as she felt something touch her. Her eyes shot open as she felt a tearing sensation on her face..yet..it wasn't painful. She became tense as her gaze fell upon bright blue eyes. She couldn't see the figures face in detail, as it was dark. Her arms flailed around, searching for Holden. He wasn't there.

Solomon cursed, appeared next to Serus, "We have an issue Serus. I can't sense Holden..he was taken..." He pinched the bridge of his nose, pacing back and forth, "All of the sudden, I couldn't sense him and now I can't even enter the room. Something powerful is blocking me."

Serus looked over to Seth, "Come to think of it.." She could feel something off about her house. "I don't sense anything..but Holden is definitely missing..I can still sense Melody though..and something in there, but I can't figure out what it is."

[Bovice]

Holden slowly opened his eyes, he noticed he was tied to a chair. "Whats going on?!" He yelled getting worried.

"Quiet you human." Abraxas said stepping out of the shadow's. "You are to do everything I say or I will kill you." He said spinning a knife on his finger. "Now, lets get this thing started." Abraxas said grabbing Holden's hand and slamming it on the table. He started saying an incantation and took the knife and slammed it through Holden's hand.

Holden screamed out in pain as the knife went through his knife. "Wh-..why are you doing this to me?" He asked in between sobs.

Suddenly Seth grabbed his hand and flew off of the bed. "Son of a..." He said standing up. He suddenly fell to his knees grabbing his head.

Abraxas smiled evilly as his spell went through to Seth. He put his hand on Holden's head. "Ohhh Seth~" He said going through Holden's link with Seth. "I just wanted to tell you that everything I do to Holden is your fault." He said twisting the knife in Holden's hand.

"H-how is it my fault?" Seth asked himself as he flew backwards and into the wall. He stayed up on the wall. Suddenly two knives flew from nowhere and went through Seth's hands. He cried out in pain, then two more knives appeared and went through Seth's legs. Seth's head fell as he tried to pull out the knives.

Abraxas stepped away from Holden, he closed his eyes and threw two knives. And made them disappear, after a few moments he threw two more knives and made them disappear. He put a bubble around Seth, he activated his illusion power and teleported by Seth. He pulled out a knife and inserted it into Seth's abdomen and sliced all the way up to his throat. He stuck his hand in Seth's blood and wrote on the wall, "Don't worry your precious Holden is fine... For now." With that Abraxas appeared next to Holden.

Seth winced as his organs were cut in half. He didn't know what was going on. He couldn't see who or what was doing this to him. "A..." Seth said as he passed out.

[Evil Tink]

The woman then grabbed Melody by the arm, hauling her out of the bed, "Come on, I've wasted enough time hunting you down." She yanked on Melody's arm, causing the gears in her arm to grind against each other and spark underneath the plastic skin, "You know, I'm almost sorry that you're in the doll...you can't scream you pretty little lungs off!"

Melody was thankful she had no sense of feeling because the sound the gears made in her arm did not sound promising to her. She tried to pull herself away from the woman, but obviously could not. She couldn't use telepathy either because technically, she didn't have a brain. The skin on her face hung loosely as she looked up, worry plastered over her face.

Solomon winced as Holden was jabbed with the knife, but other than that, he made no indication he felt it. He looked to Serus, "I'm not stupid Serus, I know the people who have Holden and Melody are demons, and that even if I'm 'technically' 500 years old, I'm not strong enough to fight them in this new body. You need to contact Azriel and Mystic."

At that moment, Mystic appeared, "Yeah, I'm late sue me." He sighed, looking to Serus, "You and Seth need to get into hiding, and fast." His mouth hung open for a minute, as if he was going to say something else. Suddenly, he shook his head slightly, looking to Solomon, "You, on the other hand, need to help Azriel find Holden. Your connection with him is strongest of us all and with her boosting your power, you should be able to. I will take care of whoever's with Melody." He disappeared, appearing outside the room, as he couldn't get in.

Azriel appeared, looking to Solomon, "Alright, focus." Once she could sense him searching, she grabbed his shoulder, amplifying his power.

[Bovice]

Seth woke up as his abdomen healed, he cried out in pain. Suddenly the knives fell out of his hands and legs. And he fell to the ground gasping for air, even though he didn't breath.

While Abraxas was gone Holden pulled out the knife he had tied to his leg. He started cutting the ropes, he was watching a feeling for Abraxas. "Come on damn it." He said as he felt one rope break. He winced when he stabbed himself with the knife. "This looks a lot easier in the movies." He said breaking through another rope.

Suddenly Abraxas appeared and laughed evilly, "I missed messing with vampires." He said walking over to a window. He peered out the window.

Holden jumped when Abraxas' appeared next to him. He stopped cutting the ropes. He growled slightly when Abraxas walked away.

"Hush up. You should feel lucky that I haven't killed you yet." Abraxas said crossing his arms.

"Well I wish you would hurry up." Holden said as he started cutting the ropes again. He made it to the last rope and stopped.

"You are just an eager beaver aren't you?" Abraxas asked walking over to Holden. "Now this is going to hurt." He said as he pulled the knife out of Holden's hand. He held it to Holden's throat, "Now should I kill you or just toy with you some more?" He asked with an evil smile. He trailed the knife along Holden's neck and down to his crotch. "Now I'm sure your boy toy wouldn't like it if I castrated you. Or are you the boy toy?" He asked pondering for a moment. Suddenly he lifted the knife and jammed it into Holden's leg.

"Just kill me." Holden said not faltering. He did flinch when the knife was in his crotch. He cried out in pain when the knife went into his leg. "You fucker!" Holden said spitting in Abraxas' face.

Abraxas stepped back and wiped the spit from his eyes. "You are spunky, aren't you?" He asked punching Holden in the chest. Sending the chair flying into the wall and shattering.

Holden laid on the floor gasping for air. His breastbone was fractured, he pulled the rope over his head. He noticed a strange looking sword on the floor across the room.

Abraxas sighed and walked back by the window, "You know humans aren't so fun to torture." He said with a frown.

Holden crawled over to the sword, he picked it up and used it to stand up. He pulled out the knife in his leg and threw it to the ground.

Abraxas turned around, "Not my Bat'leth." He said teleporting in front of Holden. He picked Holden up by the collar.

Holden smiled, "So you watched Star Trek?" He said with a laugh. "I bet you don't know how to use it." He said kicking the sword into Abraxas' leg, slicing it deep.

Abraxas dropped Holden and stepped back, he growled "You little!" He said walking towards Holden.

Holden rolled away and stood up, he swung the blade and kneeled down. When Abraxas was close enough he jammed and swooped the sword up. He swung the blade again.

The blade jammed into Abraxas' abdomen and sliced up to his chin. The blade came up again and sliced his arm off. He cried out in pain and fell to his knees holding where his arm used to be.

Holden winced as pain wracked his leg. He stood up and walked behind Abraxas, "Not bad for a measly human right?" He said as he jammed the sword into Abraxas' head. He grabbed his knees and breathed for a moment he then picked up the knife that was in his leg and hand. "You wouldn't mind if I took this would you? I didn't think so." He said as he ran with a limp out the door. When he made it to the street he leaned against the wall. "Solomon." Holden said as he started running again.
