What'll happen next?!

[Before anyone asks, this is a free post because I'm bored and want to rp!!! So anyone can choose to join in!!! Thanks ^^']
Gem smiled a little, cluching her side. So far, after coming to Trackingdom, she'd turned into a vampire a lot, almost gotten wet on purpose, got clawed in her side by a newborn vampire and fallen into some water, only to be saved from death by one of her friends. Not exactly a good start-not even for an almost-invincible vampire!
Gem replayed events over in her head. Her side still hurt from the attack the other day. She held it a little tighter.
"Geez! The one time I couldn't change I had to get an injury that will never heal!" Gem rolled her eyes. It wasn't really Ray's fault-what else could be expected from a new-born?-but couldn't he have figured out she had no blood before attacking?
She sighed now, hoping she wouldn't have to either run into Ray again or have to teach him the ways of well being.

Danie was stolling through the beach where she saw gem she cried out "Hi, Gem!" Danie rab over to gem in her sky blue swim suit she tripped over in the sand gem was starttled by her trip but danie laughed "Haha the sand broken my fall it's my soft bed!Tehe! Hay gem how are you?"
Danie noticed a wound on gem " Oh I can fix that! I wanna be a doctor anyway I am a lil like a angel so I can heal you!" *Shimmer. shimmer, twinkle twinkle* Gems arm healed [or at least stopped hurting]
"Is that better now?!"

Gem smiled bitterly-Danie's attemp to heal her was in vain.
"A wound by a vampire never truely heals," she informed her, still holding her side. "This vampire was a newborn-which makes it worse...owww..." Gem cried out, sliding to the ground, still smiling, however. "I'll be alright. I'm a vampire. I can stand this."

"I'll keep working at it soon I'll heal any wound no matter how bad! I have to!" Danie was very determined "How do you think I can train my healing powers?" She didn't know how to trai for it but she had to some how! She stood up faced gem and said "Race you to the water It's salty so it wont harm you!"

Gem looked at Danie a little doubtfully. "Hmm...I'm not sure. Water? Even though it's sea water, I haven't got a towel or costume!" She smiled sadly. "Go without me. It's okay..."

"Ow I can't have that now I know" Danie taken a cup of a lil bit of water "I'll put a tiny bit of water on ya and if it dont hurt it's ok but if it stings I'll wipe it off immedeantly ok. It will by my responsibility if you get hurt ok" Gem nodded Danie dipped her finger in the water and touched gem with her finger.............they waited for a squeal of pain.........but there wasn't "It seems to be safe! YAYAY!! Are you up to it then gem!? If you cant we can make sun castles but think of it like this you gotta face your fears what a better day to do it than a lovely sunny day like this, tomorrow it might be raining! So wadya say?!"

Gem smiled. "I don't have a towel or swimming costume!" She laughed, standing up. "And what do you mean, face my fears? I'm not scared of...well, I am scared of water, but it's not fear. It's the same with fire. I cannot touch pure water or fire because they drain me of my powers and kill me. The only reason that water didn't hurt me is because it isn't pure," she pointed out, folding her arms. "I'll go and buy a swimming costume and towel."
Gem did so and was standing next to Danie in an instant in it. "Okay, let's go!" She linked up to Danie, but let it drop quickly. "I'm sorry! My skin is cold!"

The female approched into fray. She cared little for this petty talk, with her mind excluding all but her quarry. The jet black locks floated regally in the light wind, with her green eyes focusing distictly on these frail bios.

"Excuse me ladies," she spoke in her most intimidating voice. " You have seen a blue haired boy here, yes? Tell me were he is, and I will leave you be"

Gem stood to attention, spinning around at the sound of a female's voice-a voice which sounded a little like a person out of the military.
"Blue haired boy?" Gem cast her memory back. The only blue haired boy she'd met was Cana, and even that had been a long time ago at the...Gem shuddered. Water. Eww.
I haven't seen Cana for ages. But...she could be looking for someone else...I think. Huh? What does she mean she won't leave us alone till we say we've seen him? Gem quickly shifted her position from a friendly one to a defensive one, so that Danie was behind her-she didn't want her best friend to get hurt.
"I haven't seen him for a while," she said, a little sadness leaking into her voice. "I'm sorry, we are unable to help you..."

Ray walked through the crispy beach, with the sun beaming onto the glittering, blue sea it look peaseful. "Ah. This is such a good day! I hope it'll be better!" He took a step onto the hot, flaming sand like the whole beach turned into a cooker. Salty sea water tickled his chin, he giggled. He felt like nothing is going to make his day go wrong. Two girls were standing on the bay, talking, he walked over to see if he knew them. He dose.

Gem relaxed a little, only to tense up again as Ray came towards them. It wasn't that she wasn't pleased to see him, he just seemed...to like her way too much for a second meeting.
"Ray! Hi! Great to see you! But now isn't the best time! Not that I'm not sad to be in this situation," she smiled warily at the strict lady, but it faded quickly at the coldness of her expression. Trying to keep everyone happy was challenging.
"Danie, go get in the water. Ray, go bond with her for a while. Um...I'm sorry miss! I haven't seen a blue haired boy since last weekend! I wish I could help you, but I'm afraid I cannot!" She couldn't move away for two reasons-one, because it would be rude, and two, because there was something about the lady that rooted Gem to the spot.

"Um... guess it'll be OK." Ray replyed with a smile.
"It's just. That..." He stept closer to Gem, then closer then closer.
"I really want to be with you!" He clutched onto her body and squeezed her, it wasn't a hug and it wasn't a death squeeze, just a very big hug. Ray loves her so much, the first time he layed eyes on her his heart stopped completely. But, she dosn't love him, that, he is confused about.
" Ok! I'll go with my sis." He struggled to let go, his arms move from one to the other, he clutched onto Danie now giving her a squeeze of "love". He moved with her up to the drink seller.

Gem's eyes widened in shock. He just said he...wants to be with me...he just admitted he loves me... She thought, trying to escape from his arms.
Ray let go eventually, and now took Danie away with him, leaving Gem alone with the strange lady who still hadn't moved. He also left behind strange feelings-confusion, anger, sadness, rejection, guilt...it was all too overwhelming and Gem's eyes started to leak small tears.
"But I...but I...but I...I don't love Ray back...I cannot feel that strongly about Ray...and it leaves me feeling..." Gem gasped, not making any sense to herself nor, it appeared to the other person here. Her tears were nothing-meant nothing-to anyone else, least of all to the vampire trying to make sense of the surrounding strangeness.

Kaniko was overwhelmed with mild shock. So this bio DID know where Cana was. The scene that was playing out before her was... not admisable. Here goal was the prototype, not some two bit healer delicate undead.

" This is all very touching" she snarled, reaching into the folds of ther jacket. " But I relly must be getting to the point."

I a flash, she pulled both her hands out of the parchut pocket. One held a cross hilted wooden dagger, whale the other had a lemon squeezer pistol

"I had access to his data banks when he went out, that day in the jungle," she projected into Gem's mind. I know who you are"

"All right. If nobody wants to get hurt, you ladies and gentleman will take me to Cana. If not," she held the pistol towerds Danie's pulsing heart" She will be the first to go"

Gem's eyes widened in horror, the darkness of of them reflecting the light off the silver instrument this other female had.
Looking at her other hand, she noticed it. A wooden dagger. With a...cross? She wobbled a little on her feet.
"R...r...religious symbols...it looks like a...c...cross..." Gem stammered, already feeling faint and drained.
In her mind, words that weren't her own were weaving their way in. What did she mean she knew who she was? How was she linked to Cana? Did that mean she saw the two of them talking?
The strange sensation that came whenever she wanted to blush flared up again when she thought of the jungle. Now another question was added to the seemingly long list-why did that always happen when she thought of...
The pistol was being held up to the laughing girl nearby. Danie was not aware of the danger she was in. If Gem didn't act, someone would die.
Quickly, Gem stood directly in front of the range of fire, still a little unsteady.
"Wait!" She pleaded, spreading her arms out to the side. "Why kill someone who doesn't understand? Why take a young girl's innocent life?" Gem questioned, her eyes about to fill up again. "Why not...take me instead? I can tell you any of my weaknesses you need to know!" She bargined, hoping the lady would come around to see her way of thinking. "I don't care what you do to me-take me hostage, enslave me, even kill me-just don't kill my friend! Just leave her out of this! I can help you look around everywhere...I can take you to where he may be! Please accept my conditions," she begged, her arms still out to the side.
"Just because you had access to Cana's data banks, and just because you know who I am, doesn't mean I am anything. To anyone. I even said so myself. You'll know that I have many strengths, but also many weaknesses. Hear me out," she continued. "If I cannot find him, you can choose what happens to me. I won't turn on you, or suddenly transform. I'll just help you look or...you can choose. I won't tell anyone where I'm going. I'll just go get ready and we can go. This way, you get what you want. Cana or a kill. Please..."
What does she want with him? If I find him, will she kill him? Gem thought, now trying to concentrate. Cana...it's Gem. If you can sense something or even hear me...please come and find me. You once said you'd help me...and right now I really need it...what's the use? It isn't working. The only thing to say is...my friends. I'm going to miss you all!

Her eyebrows curled.

"Very well," she spoke stodicly as the pistol fell. " From this moment forward, until I get my quarry, you are herby demoted to the level of ....... PET!" With a swiftness to rivel most trained fencers, a ripline shot out of the female's wrist, instaring Gem by the throat.

With her remaining hand, she bit her thumb at the other two bio's. " I'm sorry blood bags," her voice dripping with sarcasm. " But me, Gem and Cana have a little play date. Ta ta"

Darting off towerd the school, with Gem dragging in tow, the female took refuge behind a nearby dumster.

"Alright Gem. My name is Koniko, which is Mistress Koniko to you." the dagger still stood in her grip. " This line is thermate you know, betray me and you will be alight in a nanosecond. Lets see if that little nose can't snife out a shell, eh?"

-----

Testoreroin flooded him....

Blood, burning blood.

She was here, Cana heard, and she's got Gem!

[For the sake of Gem, she isn't in swimming gear anymore. Woot-back to normal!]
It hurt. That was all she could feel. Pain. Even though she could have fought her way out of this normally, with someone's life about to be taken, and with these new conditions in place now that it was aparent that it was Gem's life-or existance-on the line, no other feeling could be...well, felt.
She couldn't transform. So stuck in her human-ish form, all she could feel was human emotion. For the second time, she couldn't do anything when she needed to.
The thing around her neck could set alight. No way could she break out now. She was forced to be-as Koniko had put it-demoted. The thing around her neck was being pulled. And Gem along with it. Away from everyone, behind a dumpster.
Nodding would cause more pain. "I...understand...the...conditions..." she gasped, trying to take in air.
"I...won't...do...anything...stupid...or...sudden..."
Closing her eyes, she concentrated. She wasn't really speaking directly to anyone this time, or even anyone at all, but Gem didn't mind if he heard.
This line around my neck...if I do anything wrong, it sets alight. The dagger she holds...I've never come across one before. I don't know whether it can harm me in any way...all I'm sure of is...I really don't want to die!

"I'm so pleased you're willing to cooperate," Koniko voiced sickly sweet. " Now, I'm a very busy woman, and my brother is SO hard to catch up with, for now." Her lips widened into a infernal grin. " Soon, he'll be a bit more settled, to say the least. Were could he be???" she pressed the knife hilt agenst Gem's face, pumping in the holy hurt for effect. 'Well, I'm waiting"

Cana typed in a few commands into Level Editor, sceening the area for tell tale signs of AI activity (barring his own, of course).

"

Don't worry Gem,/ he thought/ I'm on my way.

The agents picked up the overchanneled link almost immedatly, south of his current location, somewere within 50 meters of the beach. Could he e-mail her, tell her were he was.

NO, NO NO! his subconciouss shouted. Run! Odds of victory rest a beneth 5%! Leave the girl, you don't need hormonal control anymore. Sever the link, and she can't find you!

[i]I am not afraid anymore. Gem, damm it, tell her were I am! You're the real one here! I'm just a program, a dog! Were ever you look, just keep thinking!

"Huh?" Gem breathed out, bewildered and scared. Too much was going on. "I...I...I...don't kno-"
Cana was telling her to tell Koniko where he was.
But if I do that, you'll die! She yelled in her head, closing her eyes once more. I don't want you to die!
Now he was saying he wasn't scared. He sounded kind of...determined.
I'm...sorry in a way. I didn't want her to find you! I didn't want any of this! I wish this hadn't happened... Gem thought sadly. If you really want me to tell Koniko...I guess I'd better respect that. I'll...tell her.
Opening her eyes, which were swimming with salt water, she gulped. As the tears made tracks down her face, Gem spoke, her voice quiet but not so quiet that Koniko couldn't hear.
"He is...out there." She pointed towards the beach. "Not actually on the beach, though. I think he can see this hiding place.I think he is waiting for us to come out."

Kaniko blanked out for a moment, apperntly scanning for frequencies.
"You're right," she whispered maliciously." He is here, good kitty!" In a mostly undignified manner,she strocked Gem's hair as one would a kitten. " Lets just say hello, shall we?" Once again, she yanked the thermate wire and pulled Gem along. The prey was close she could taste it.

----------

Peaked out from behind the smoothy bar, his face grimmised in disguest. How dare she! The created were the slaves, not the other way around! Obviously, Aztech had cut some corners in the restrats to save memory for more destructive tendencies. Firewalls surronded him like silver mail, a viral code his spear, and the digital dragon held the dammsel in a lair of filth. How, totally clich'e. Agenst every urge possable to man or machine, Cana stepped out from his only cover, gazing Gem in the eyes.

" HELLO, I AM CANA, PROPERTY OF THE CREATORS. HOW MAY I SERVE YOU?"

Gem shivered away from Koniko's hand, before being patted on the head.
Kitty?She thought. Vampire...it's humiliating!
Now she was being dragged out into the open. Gem tried struggling against the 'leash' around her neck, but gave up quickly, scared that she would be punished for her actions.
He was here-she could see him. Cana was standing there, looking furious.
"Huh?" Gem squeeked, smiling a little. "You can serve me by not getting killed!"

(first off, am i demmenaing you here? If so, I'm terrably sorry, its for effect)

----------------------

"So, having some ownership issues are we big brother?" Kaniko yanked on the thermate, pulling Gem inot her arm. " It has been SO long since you ran away, and mother is getting worried. You haven't even seen my kitty yet have you?" She place the dagger point onto Gem's temple, stick with sweat. " She is SO loyal, once I told her about you, and I should thank you for the recommendation. You do have her filed under htp/kitten, do you not?"

"Let her go Kaniko," Cana stated flatly. " If you do not cooperate, I will have to resort to brute force.Unless," he seemed to think aloud "you want me to give up without a fight Creator."

[Nope, it's okay! ^^]

Gem let out a word-less squeal of fright. Aparently Koniko had decided upon Gem's new forced way of movement. Even if that movement involved dragging a girl and not caring if she didn't realise and was therefore being almost pulled across whatever surface that the person doing the dragging happened to be standing.
Being forced into someone's arm wasn't a good thing either, espicially if you have something already quite tight around your neck, there's a dagger being pressed into your forehead-which you can't be sure of whether it could kill you or not-and the midday sun, whilst not able to destroy you, can weaken you, now that it's at it's highest.
A stronger vamp wouldn't have let this happen. A stronger vamp would fight back, Gem thought, starting to feel the effect of the rays. A stronger vampire...isn't me! If I was stronger, I'd tell Ray I don't like him in the way he wishes me too. I'd tell the two siblings to stop trying to force me into something. If I was stronger...I wouldn't be here...because that day at the fountain... she cringed, knowing Cana would proberly be listening.
"Too...hot...and...tight!" She breathed out, trying to move her arms so she could shade herself. "Vampires...can't..."

Cana watched as Gem stood their, bond to his sister's will, struggling fruitlessly to sheild herself from the scorching rays of the sun. His mind searched franticly, trying to compute a way around this delema. If only she had given the command, he could bring out the big guns, but without the creatoirs....

" Koniko, let her go," he spoke solumly, dropping Level Editor to the sandy ground. " I am ready, if you will relase Gem ( RENAMING FILE... KITTEN- GEM VAMP.) I am scrap."

You are not weak Gem. That is me. You left your past behind, and I have not. My sister still haunts me, but your parants do not. Listen, I AM A PROGRAM!

Koniko gazed quiziclly, first at Cana, then Gem, then the dagger in her hand. "Alright," she sheathed the dagger into her coat and drew out a chrome cylnder. " This is an ion charge. It will short both you and my axillery arm systems simutaniously. She goes out, you go down."

Her finger moved towerd the activation swich.

:) He texted her a mental smile

Danie was trying to bond with ray so she said " I think you and Gem will make a great couple! But I dont think you would take advice from a little girl which may know nothing about relatinships so.....Im gonna persuade gem! *gasp* Gem! Are you ok?! Ray she geting captured! Or is she on a date with Cana?.....Hmmm..... I will be back in a mo!" Danie ran over to Gem " Gem are you burning?Oh no! My sun cream wont work on her skin so pail like that! Oh OH UMMM! *PANIC* Ray! Come help!" Gem refused his help " Oh come on Ray could help Cana needs more help helping you and I dont know what to do!" [Push her into a shade! But arty said "More tension!" sio danie seems to be stupid cause the answer is so obvious! Haha! Im sure it'll work out!] Danie was turning left to right looking at Ray then gem. " Oh gem-ray you two go so well together!" *still panicing*
