Hope nodded, "She got married last year I think.... And she's the only original memeber of the band left too..."
She smiled, "I have a few CDs in my apartment of theirs."

"Great!" Atorey opened his eyes as the elevator stopped.

Hope smiled, "Its around the bend here."
She stepped out of the elevator, walking at a pace that she wouldn't loose him at, "I hope you wont get lost in my apartment--its kinda messy right now."

"I'll try my best." he joked. Not really minding the thought of a mess. He was still excited by the thought of seeing this new sight.

Hope smiled at him before stopping by a door and pulling out her keys, "Here we are."
She unlocked it and pushed the door open. The lights clicked on automatically.
It was a high-ceiling room with random poster's on all the walls except for one. The last one was taken up by a curtain with the Pete Wentz bat. The posters were of bands, gothic faires, Invader Zim, and animals. Boxes were scattered about the floor, some collasped and some still put together.

"Comfy." he said upon taking in the sight of the apartment. It wasn't as big a mess as he was expecting and smiled at that. Atorey followed Hope into the apartment and found a spot to sit. He set the Kimono down beside him. He then looked to her and awaited he voice, or opinion on what to do next.

"I hope you don't mind, theres a puppy around here somewhere--I just couldn't part with him when I moved here. Its a Border Collie so don't be surprised if you see a black and white spot run by. His name is Tux, just for referance. He's fine with men," Hope ran a hand through her hair and searched a bit.

This caused Atorey a little bit of discomfort. He wasn't fond of dogs but he didn't mind being around them. He smiled, "thanks for the heads up."

Hope smiled, "He's really freindly too.... So, no need to worry. I think he's asleep though.
"So, do you want to go find somewhere to get a drink?"

Atorey stood moving a step closer to his host although there was still a large distance between them. "That would be lovely."

Hope smiled, "All right. I'll find Tux later. He mostly sleeps as it is. Which is odd for a Border COllie.
'But, you may want to put the Kimono in the closet--just incase he isn't in a room."

Atorey did as he was advised and then returned to his hosts side. "Shall we then?"

Hope nodded, "Yep. Oh boy, we get to go wander around town!" She alughed.

He too was excited about exploring. "I can't wait!" he offered.

She smiled, "Lets go then. I bet if we wander long enough the festival will start."

Atorey felt light as they left the building. The air was sweet smelling and nothing could be more perfect to him at that moment.

Hope smiled, ''So where will we go first? Which direction?''

Atorey looked every which way. "Let's go right," he suggested.

''That can be done,'' Hope smiled starting off.

Hope smiled at him, "So... Do you mind me asking how long you've been a vampire, Atorey?"

He was taken aback by her question but only for a minute. "I haven't been this way for long, maybe twenty odd years..." Atorey trailed off. "What about you? How long have you been a vampire?"

"Uhm... I'm not sure really... I never counted the years. I know its been a while. After some time the years blended together," Hope muttered, seeming sad for a moment, "I was accidently created, both my brother and I were. I remember waking up in an alley with Mefeal, but I don't remember how I got here...."
She brushed some hair out of her face, smiling again though some sadness remained in her eyes.

"That must have been horrible...like my existence without a family...never knowing how you actually came to be." Atorey pondered this for a moment. "Have you ever wanted to find out?"

Post by †Arisen† on Apr 22, 2008 21:18:06 GMT -5
"Uhm, I'm not really sure... I mean, I have been curious before. But,.. I haven't done anything about it. Besides, it could've been anyway. Mefeal and I were at a graduation party. Thats when it happened. We woke up outside of town the next morning," Hope sighed.

Atorey echoed her. His sigh sounding like the last breath of a beautiful song. "Somethings were just meant to happen I suppose...Though not everything happens for a reason. Somethings are just the way they are." His face clouded with trouble. "Being dead doesn't make living any easier..."

"No it doesn't. But, thats how life is. We can't change that," Hope muttered, "But you remember how you were created, don't you? That must be nice--even if you have to remember the pain of it."

Atorey smiled a dream like smile. "Yes I remember it. I don't recall the pain, possibly because of the manner of the transformation or because my love has blocked it from my memory..." he paused and looked to her. "Maybe one day I'll move on and try to find him again..."eyes darted, "Then again, maybe not."

Hope smiled at him, "You're lucky then, Atorey. I suposse my brother remembers it, but he never told me about it. Maybe because he didn't want me to remember, or didn't want me to feel hurt about it."
She shrugged, "After all, we left our family behind."

Atorey nodded his understanding. He could understand to some degree her brothers line of thinking.
