"Megan I do not trust this 'woman' Joseph hasn't been himself, its not like him to just follow some woman he doesn't even really know," said Amy.
"I know I get the same feeling, Steven is acting strangely too. This woman is up to something and I don't like it. I'm going to talk to Steven later after they've finished discussing whatever it is they're doing," said Megan.
"I don't like it either, Joseph has never kept anything from me but anything to do with this woman and he's closemouthed," said Amy.

"Victor, Circe has just made herself into a real threat, the scouts have reported that she's planning a full out assault, one of the men she's taken is a hunter how she managed that I don't know and she's also managed to get control of a panther-shifter," said Richard after he had rushed into the room.
"Damian was most certainly right but we couldn't risk the council's wrath taking her out there are so few Venus left," said Victor.
"I know but she's mad she wants to kill us and take over this Family," said Richard.
"What do you propose we do?" asked Victor.
"Angela told me that there is another force off to the side working against her, he's been trailing her since her first week in exile," said Richard.
"Why don't we just give this 'force' a little help then? Does Angela know where this force is?" asked Victor.
"No she said there is just energy focused towards stoping her. Its not in any solid form but she said that when it gets closer to happening she should be able to find it," said Richard.
"Thanks Richard, I'll alert the guards to keep a sharp look out," said Victor.
"Thank goodness I caught you both," said Angela rushing into the room.
"It wasn't easy but I found the energy source and traced it back to its source and I found that there is in fact two distinct signals one is weaker and almost swallowed by the other but its there. I think we're looking at another psychic, the weak signal however is characteristic of a hunter," said Angela.
"So maybe he doesn't need that extra push seeing as he might already have it," said Victor.
"It seems that way," said Angela.

"What did you see?" asked Julius after Karen had come out of her vision.
"I know where she's going next it seems as though I have a great deal more control over these visions now. She's going to the subway I think she might be changing her plans," said Karen.
"How so?" asked Julius.
"The man she's after is a business man," said Karen.
"I think she's going after wealth and position now, to have a successful Family the head must ensure that some of their number can bring in something to ensure they are well looked after it is much harder for vampires to live undetected these days," said Julius.
"That would make sense," said Karen.
"We'll be ready for her this time, I need to show how to use some of these weapons I have Karen, I can't do both things at the same time," said Julius.
"I'll look after the man," said Karen.
"Still I want you to know how to use these things," said Julius holding up a throwing star.

"Joseph, I will be going out now to bring back another new member of our family make sure that Cole is comfortable, I'll be back soon," said Circe.
"Of course Circe," said Joseph.
