Eternal battles leave eternal scars

[tamaturtle]

Jessica really didn't know what to do. "Uh, I probably would have been dragged into it anyway, except I'd probably die." She gave a smile and an awkward nod. "So, uh, thanks for letting me avoid death."

 

[YellowJedi]

Damien gave a small smile, before walking outside.

 

[tamaturtle]

Jessica sighed, heading back into the basement and locking herself in, before curling up on the sofa again.

 

[YellowJedi]

Timeskip?

 

[tamaturtle]

Sure.

After god knows how long Jessica had given up and fallen asleep, the TV on loud and with her hands over her ears.

 

[YellowJedi]

About and hour passed after Jessica had fallen asleep, Damien came home. He ran downstairs, only to find a sleeping Jessica. "Thank god." he whispered to himself, collapsing on the couch next to her.

 

[tamaturtle]

Jessica groaned when the couch shifted, rolling over but not opening her eyes just yet. "Urgh... is that Damien?"

 

[YellowJedi]

"Yeah, it is." Damien said softly. "Sorry for waking you."

 

[tamaturtle]

"It's fine." Jessica mumbled, stretching and knocking the empty pizza box off the couch. "Are you alright? What happened?"

 

[YellowJedi]

Damien shrugged. "Nothing much, killed some people, destroyed some cities." He told Jessica calmly. "The humans have no chance, not even their weapons could hurt us."

 

[tamaturtle]

Jessica sighed, rubbing her eyes. "You speak so calmly about it." She scowled, opening her eyes slightly. "Is it still happening?"

 

[YellowJedi]

Damien sighed, nodding his head. "But I'm done fighting." he told her. "I just wanna be with you."

 

[tamaturtle]

"You didn't have to do that... I'm fine in my underground bunker." Jessica said, slowly sitting. "You idiot, what if your immortal friends come here?"

 

[YellowJedi]

"I'll kick there &^* if they even come near you." Damien yawned, laying down and putting his head next to Jessica's head. He gave a small yawn again.

 

[tamaturtle]

Jessica rolled her eyes. "Oh, come on. Aren't vampires meant to have super stamina?"

 

[YellowJedi]

"We are, I'm just really tired." Damien told Jessica.

 

[tamaturtle]

"Aw bless." Jessica picked up the TV remote and turned it off, as all it was showing was static. She sighed. "I feel kinda awful, knowing what's going on up there..."

 

[YellowJedi]

"Well there's nothing you can do about it, so don't."

 

[tamaturtle]

"I know that." Jessica snapped, staring at the floor. "I just... feel awful for getting out of it. If I hadn't been an idiot and gone wandering in the woods, well... it would have been me up there."

Hm... what can happen now?

 

[YellowJedi]

I have an idea, but I'm working on it.

"Yeah, those woods have given me horrible nightmares. I was turned into a vampire there." Damien sighed sadly, remember what happened that night.
