"Indeed you are more powerful than ever, yet you can be even more powerful." Spoke a voice from the darkness of the forest. A figure appeared from a mass of shadow, it was that of Lord Xilan, the dark wizard gaining power. "All you have to do is follow me, and you will find power." he said with a cruel laugh.
So do me a favor and scream for me.

 Strike ignored Jack's complaints, still grasping at the fledgling's neck. Together, they plunged into the darkness of the Forbidden Forest. Strike walked randomly through the forest, keeping his eyes and ears alert for any creature wanting to cause them harm. The forest was denser than he remembered, but he still knew where to stop.
He threw Jack down at the ground and pointed at him, his eyes stern and intense, "Do not. Move," Strike hissed. He needed the fledgling to know that he was serious. He must obey, even while his thirst was there, "I will return. Kill anything that approaches," Strike turned and left, rushing through the forest and leaving Jack behind. ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently... What I'm thinking: Stay!

He had heard people coming around the Shrieking Shack, and so, he became worried that they would overhear his list. After all, he was supposed to be hiding. And so, Zane fled back to the Forbidden Forest. The place where he had met the centaurs and narrowly awaited a severe damning legal sentence. The boy heard a noise close by. It sounded like two men talking. 'What could that be?' he thought to himself.● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw●

Strike's eyes narrowed as he rushed through the forest. He circled the area he left Jack in, making sure that there were no creatures there wanting to harm them. In this forest, there were more dangers than Strike knew of. Creatures that he could never know of or had never seen. This forest was dangerous, and he needed to make sure his fledgling was not in any immediate danger.
As he searched, he caught a scent. Human. But the scent was sad and familiar. The same scent that Jack had the night he was turned by Strike. At the end of the line, no where else to run... there was nothing more to run for.
Strike followed this scent slowly, coming to the clearing where a young man was, "Greetings," Strike smiled, making sure not to flash his fangs. ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently... What I'm thinking: That scent...

'til then I walk a l o n e ●"'ello," Zane replied calmly. It did startle him a bit to see a man in the woods. However, something about this man seemed to tell the boy that he wasn't in any danger. Then again, Zane was always in danger. ● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw●

Strike tilted his head back, looking the boy up and down. He slowly approached, then stopped. There was no need to frighten the poor thing, he reminded himself. So he stood just a few feet away from the young man, the smile still playing on his lips.
"You're quite young... wandering the Forbidden Forest," Strike tilted his head, his hair framing his face in the pale moonlight, "Aren't you breaking the rules by being here, hm?"
On a night like tonight, the moon was full and gleaming down at the two strangers. There was very little breeze, and the sounds of the forest did not cease with their conversation. What Strike's ears could hear was far different than what this human boy's could, however. If Strike strained hard enough, he could hear the sound of the feast going on at the castle. He could hear the sounds of the hooves of the centaurs. Hell, he could hear the mermaids singing in the depths of the Lake if he listened really, really hard. But, right now, he listened to the calm heartbeat of this young man and became amused by him. ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently... What I'm thinking: That scent...

'til then I walk a l o n e ●"'ello,"The boy's heartbeat sped up a bit. Hogwarts. It was still there, but it's doors were closed to him. He would never be able to get those years back. He would never be able to forget that the castle held the dungeon where his sister had breathed her last at his hand. "Rules?!" the boy spat. "Hogwarts doesn't care what I do, so long as I stay out." ● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw●

"Ah, so you're an outcast? Or perhaps something more sinister...?" Strike seemed to slither up to the young man, "If Hogwarts is no home to you, then why be here? Where is home to you? Surely not this horrible place," Strike motioned with a wide arc of his arm at the forest darkness beside them. ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently... What I'm thinking: That scent...

'til then I walk a l o n e ●Zane wasn't too sure if he liked this man anymore. At first, he appeared just to be a stranger wandering in the woods. A nice, friendly stranger wandering the Forbidden Forest. As the boy thought about that fact, a small cloud of fear began to creep over him. He had been told not to go into the Forest. There were creatures that were dangerous. Even the centaurs had warned him of that.
Then there was the whole matter of home. They said home was where the heart was, but where was Zane's heart? Not in Coventry. Not here in the Forest. Certainly not in Hogsmeade with its bustling patrons. Could he tell this man why he was here? Zane sighed. "Honestly, it's a bit of a long story, and I don't think you really want to hear it," the boy grumbled as he tried to march past the man. ● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw●

Strike laughed heartily, allowing the boy to walk past him, "I have time," Strike beamed, his fangs flashing as he chucked at his own joke. If the boy was paying attention, he might have caught a glimpse of them, but Strike continued nevertheless, "but you don't have much, from what I can tell,"
The vampire shrugged and looked up at the moon. His friend.
"How long do you think it will take for an Auror to find a boy like you? You're young. Stupid. Frail. Human," he whispered the last word, "I can offer you protection," he turned to face Zane, who was still marching away. He smirked, wondering how long it would take the words to sink. ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently... What I'm thinking: I want him.

'til then I walk a l o n e ●Zane did his best to ignore what the man was saying. Was he a murderer? One a bit more successful than himself? One who actually meant to kill by his own thoughts, and not the ones planted by another, more evil mind? However, there was the matter of the teeth. He had only caught a small glimpse, and so he wasn't sure if he was just imagining it, or if the man really did have fangs.
The boy took a few more steps as the man kept talking. His words held somewhat of a power to them. Not any power that came from magic, but power that even a Muggle could posses. The same power that got him expelled in the first place. The power of persuasion.
His heart stopped for a moment as the man inquired about Aurors, but that's not what got him. "I am not stupid!" he yelled as he turned around to face the man. "I made a mistake, yes! But that doesn't make me stupid! It makes me human, like you've never made a mistake before?"
The boy stormed closer to the man, his emotions clouding his judgement. "And how do I know you can offer me protection?" Zane added, his voice hoarse.● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw● {Out of Cookies: I saw the new guidelines, good thing he's abandoned his wand then.}

((Yeah, I'm thinking that Strike will go appeal for wands to be allowed to vampires. Especially for the vampires that were once wizards and have been turned.)) Strike let out another laugh, "Not one that I have regretted. Or one that I can remember," the elder vampire smirked, seeing that he caught the boy's attention finally, "All you have is my word,"
The vampire glanced sideways, and then shrugged. He was going to seal the deal now.
"Your being smells of death," he scrunched his nose, whispering the next sentence, "A mistake like that will make you the one being hunted... your life was over the moment you made your mistake," he took a step back, opening his arms, "I can offer you another option," ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently...

'til then I walk a l o n e ●A life without regret? How was this possible? Certainly the man had met something he wished to change. Everyone made mistakes. That was one of the basic rules Zane had learned about humans. However, something about this stranger made the boy think that he wasn't a human. Perhaps he hasn't imagined the fangs after all.
Zane gulped as the man came closer. He felt more on edge. Perhaps this stranger knew what he did to Erianthe. Perhaps this was his punishment. "What is it then?" the young man demanded, his voice full of emotion. He was ready to take just about anything, just to get rid if some of the past.● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw●

Strike smirked, "You haven't figured it out yet? I suppose I am being a bit mysterious tonight," he glanced up at the full moon and sighed, returning his attention to the young man in front of him, "My name is Strike, and I am the leader of the Strikers Clan,"
He shrugged uncomfortably before continuing, "Not much of a clan yet, but we make do with what we've got," he smiled, this time not hiding the fangs. This boy, he decided, was either going to be a vampire or be a feast for Strike and Jack, "I'm a vampire," he added, almost exasperatedly. ◙■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■◙ Currently...

'til then I walk a l o n e ●Zane wondered why the man kept looking up at the moon. Sure, it was beautiful, but nothing could hide from the moon's persistent gaze. It was for that reason that the boy trusted the stars more. They told stories, and not secrets.
At the mention of a clan, the boy became confused. Clans didn't still exist, or did they? Especially clans with such odd names. "A-and what does that supposed to mean?" Zane stuttered. So he was right, Strike was a vampire.● ●15 Year Old●Ravenclaw●Outlaw●
