Shiraku looked down sadly.
"I nearly bit my brother," She said quietly, trying not to let her voice crack. "I didn't know what I was doing. Vrael was so angry with me. He said that if I did that again, or if Cika did turn into a vampire, then he would kill me..."

Gabriels fists tightened, but he kept the smile on his face,
"No harm shall befall you, little one, if anyone comes for you, it shall be counted as a sin against the Lord's instrument, and all of his wrath shall be cast upon them." Gabriel said, as he put his hand out to shake her hand, "I accept, you may join me."

Shiraku smiled slightly, timidly shaking Gabriel's hand. His words had comforted her, although she didn't know if Vrael would be able to fight back with his skill with a bow.

Gabriel smiled, the sun was coming down now. He looked towards Shiraku and spoke quietly.
"Get some rest, little one, i'll keep watch until morning. If anything happens i'm sure it will wake you." Gabriel laughed on the inside, as he put the chairi n the centre of the room facing the door.

Gabriel just sat on the chair, watching the doorway, and listening for the window, he wasn't going to let anything in or out without an explanation as to why they were there. He was ready to kill at the slightest annoyance.

Shiraku seemed to be sleeping peacefully, but her mind was tormented.
Burning thirst, what was going wrong? Door creaking open, Cika's voice, but the vampire wasn't listening to him. She was listening the the blood...
