Running into trouble (lana)

[jp Van Der Berg]

JP thought it was better he just went home, after all that happened with Marina and discovering he actually had powers now, was something too much for him to handle right now and being close to family seemed like the logical choice, but he didn’t want to go home, he’d have let his parents down, they paid a lot of money to get him to LA and now he’d just run back home? It would seem like such a wrong thing to do, but being close to family was what he needed now right? Though they wouldn’t understand what he was going through. But he could try to explain them right? Sure that was going to work, he had trouble explaining to him what he was, telling someone else wouldn’t be any easier. He walked down the alley, as he contemplated what he was going to do, going to New York was probably the right thing to do now. He had to get close to people who understood him, who else than his family. As he turned the corner, this attractive woman was standing in the dark, he didn’t want to bother her or anything, but too late, she had a male companion next to her.

As he walked by the duo, he could hear them calling for him, but he just ignored them, stuck one of his hands in his pockets, while he tightened the grip of a water bottle he had in his hand. He wasn’t going to cause any trouble with anyone. But they kept on calling for him, and suddenly he felt someone grab his shoulder and spun him around. He turned around and faced the duo, who got up and close much quicker than he would expect. “What do you want? I don’t want any trouble” Jordan said, kind of scared, as they just grinned at him and the guy told him one thing. “We’re hungry and you look delicious” he said as their fangs popped out, great they were vampires and they wanted some lunch. Jordan kind of shoved them away and raised his bottle. “Get away from me!” he said as they laughed at him, with his water bottle in hand. “What are you going to do kid? Water us to death?” said the guy as Jordan looked at his bottle, well it would be a waste of water because the bottle was a bit full and he only had a sip or two from it, but out of impulse he just threw the bottle in the vampire dude’s face and ran off as he heard the female vampire checking up on her male companion as Jordan made a run for it.

Jordan ran as he could hear the vampires following him, calling out for him as he ran down the street. “Great Jordan, run down the most quietest street of them all this late” he thought to himself as she turned the corner and bumped into someone he had no clue who it was, all he heard was a girl angrily addressing him as he tried to help her out. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry but two vampires were behind me trying to have me as a late night snack” Jordan told her, hoping she wouldn’t freak as well.

To call or not to call, that was the question. Maybe she was just being more paranoid then usual, or being a little bit obsessive. What was he doing? What is he thinking? Was he thinking of her? Was he hurting someone? If this was a relationship, or even a shadowy imprint of one she had to keep her cool - and trust him. She had finally saved Sam, restored the man inside that she knew hid within. But why did she feel like she had a timebomb strapped to her heart just waiting to blow? She should let him be free a little bit, because they may have saved his soul but his mind was still there, and if he still remembered what he had done, not just recently but over his whole life, then he was going to need that space. Looking to her phone screen, the Sinclaire Mansion's number was up with a big green button saying 'Dial'. But as she looked at it for a second, she smiled. She needed to give him some time to breath, and vice versa. So therefore she locked her phone and slipped it into her pocket in the dark alley of LA. Okay, she had to breath and chill if only for her own sanity and well-being. Moving forwards, she put her hands in her jacket pockets, looking around but basically dawdling in the alley. Ev was going to play protector with her tonight, but she had prior engagements with his little team of vigilantes. At least he was doing something with his life, but what about Lana. She had not been back to school yet and Xzavier had asked her to go to New York with him, but now - she wasn't too sure. She had friends, family and the potential to go back to school and finish her year and one more until she was a senior. She had a lot to do here, not to mention her tormented and studly boyfriend. But only time would tell what this fairy was to do.

Okay, action! Turning a corner alley, she squinted as she saw someone running at her, with two running behind him. Okay, either it was two hunters after a vamp or two vamps after some innocent dude. She chose the latter, and then the guy ran into her. With a little surprise 'oh' she looked at him. Okay, he was freaking out right about now and it was understandable, the vamps were getting closer as he kinda explained the situation. Atleast she didn't have to use the 'run, they have rabbies' excuse, and kind of shrugged as she looked at him. "Let's see what we can do about that blondy. Okay, behind the dumpster - now". She told him calmly but then saw one of the vamps skillfully throwing a dagger through the air at the guy's back. Quick Lana! Gripping onto the guys arms, she spun and swapped possitions with him as she pushed him behind the dumpster, and closed her eyes tight in anticipation for the pain. The dagger stabbed into her lower back, her grunting as she dropped to the ground. Splat! Lana was on the ground with blood running down her side from the wound in her back. God, she hated it when she gets stabbed. Reaching behind her, she gripped onto the blade and ripped it out. "Son of a bitch!" she groaned as she slowly got up, pink light radiating from the wound as she stood up straight. Now it was time to kick some serious ass! Turning, one of the vampires had a sword. Yeah, that's right - a friggin sword. Lana gasped as the sword swung at her, aiming to slash her at the waist, but she was faster. Shooting into the air, she performed a high backflip as the sword swung through the air bellow her feet, and she landed on top of the dumpster with a thud. Stabilizing herself, she looked at the female vamp. "Fucking fairies, annoying sparkly pieces of shit". How rude! Lana smirked at her as she charged off of the edge of the dumpster, but leapt off and performed a flying spin kick and kicked the chick right in the face, and the vamp landed with a splat on the ground. But there was another, a dude. She wanted to get this finished quick right now.

Her charged at her with a fist flying, but she caught his arm. She rose her own arm, sending an elbow into his face and stunning him. But with grip on his arm, she swung him and launched him into the air and smack-bang onto the dumpster next to them. It didn't hurt him much sadly, but Lana wasn't finished. As he went to rise, she sent a eye-height punch and smashed him in the face on his lying position. But he went to get up again, and once on his feet Lana spun and while doing a high spin kick, swept out his feet as he flipped back down, this time rolling behind the dumpster with a crash. Two down, now just time to kill them. Flipping a stake out of her jacket, she heard her coming. "Dumb, ugly fucking vampires". She growled as she spun around and stabbed the stake into the vampire's heart, the echo of the demons screams rang through the alley as she exploded into ash. One down, one to go. But turning around, the vamp as shoved the dumpster at her and it smashed into her, smashing her against the wall. Lana was jammed between a brick wall and a dumpster, and she was pretty sure both legs were broken. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a crushed fairy and an innocent left alone with a pissed off vampire.

Well seemingly this chick wasn’t as scared as he was. She told him to get out of the way and get behind the dumpster, Jordan wasn’t even sure what the hell was going on, he was scared for his life and here was this chick, ready to kick some Vampire ass. Who the hell was she and what was her deal but all he knew, within seconds, he was pulled behind a dumpster and he could see a shadowing object behind him and it went straight to the side of the girl. Jordan looked on shocked; he had no idea what to do or what to say. She fell to the floor, he could see she was hurt, this was his fault, great, because of his two left feet, and she got injured. Jordan was about to head her way to help but he saw her pulling the dagger out and seemingly this was not the end of her. She was ready to fight, okay now he wasn’t sure what to expect.

Suddenly the mystery girl started fighting the female vampire, and she had a sword, this was crazy, the female vampire was going to kill her for sure. But Jordan suddenly saw her on top of the dumpster near him and then she leaped off of it and kicked the Vampire chick’s butt. This girl was really impressive and in no time was battling the other vampire. She was fighting him and it was all going pretty well and down he went. The girl pulled out a dagger wand was about to finish what she started. The female vampire was heading her way and then she stabbed her, the girl stabbed her, Jordan just heard a loud demonic scream and then nothing more than ashes could be seen. Though, it didn’t take too long before the other vampire got involved too. He pushed the dumpster towards the girl as she was sent into the wall and the dumpster crushing her into it. Jordan was officially worried now, the Vampire was slowly heading towards the girl, obviously forgetting Jordan was still around. Jordan looked around, scouting the area, as he found himself a piece of wood, big enough to get a good swing. Jordan charged towards the vampire from behind and with one hard swing, nails it in the head of the vampire from behind as he falls to the floor. Jordan drops the piece of wood as he heads towards the girl who was caught between the dumpster and the wall.

Jordan grabbed the handle of the dumpster and tried his best to pull it off. “I’m going to try to pull it” he told the girl as he pulled as hard as he could, the vampire sure made this look easy. He pulled as hard as he could and it budged only a bit, he hoped it was enough because as he pulled he saw some shadowy thing heading his way and it was the same piece of wood he just knocked out the vampire with being thrown his way as he jumped out of the way and the piece of wood crashed into the dumpster. Jordan looked on worried as he quickly scouted the area and found himself a broom stick. Jordan grabbed it and got up and charged towards the Vampire, but with one hard swing, the vampire just slapped the broom stick out of his hands. Jordan just looked on worried as the vampire grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him off his feet getting into his face. “Please, don’t hurt us, we didn’t want any trouble” Jordan begged as the Vampire prepared himself to have a little feast on Jordan.
