You may kneel.

Dawn, 3,728 years old, Sapiosexual. I am the Vampire Queen of New York City. If I do not want you in my city then you shall leave, my word is law .

“Oh my god, you literally just sound like an edgy emo teenager. You don’t know me…you don’t know my story. Keep yapping lady, I’ve heard it all before.” She would’ve been red in the face by now if she had the ability to do so, her temper flaring. “Didn’t you just shame me for being upset about being changed? Maybe you should think about your words before you say something, you hypocrite. I’m hardly going to give a squirt of piss about your emotions when you’re trying so down play mine.” She watched the witch go with a dark expression, her arms folding tightly over her chest. “Stupid bloody cow.” She mumbled, only turning when she heard the other vampire start to play the piano.

Dawn sighed as she heard Angelique yelling in Romanian and played the piano softly, a melody she had written a few centuries ago, something that she felt soothed everything when stressed “It’s pointless arguing with Angelique, Frankie....She’s not all there...” The queen said simply, her eyes closed as she mentally mapped out the keys without even having to look. “There are alot of damaged souls within these walls, they are probably attracted here to some sort of beacon” she mused.

“Of course you don’t. By the way, being an edgy bitch doesn’t make up for a lack of personality, it doesn’t make you interesting.” Frankie was never one to back down in an argument, she was too fiery for her own good and it had got her in trouble too many times. “I’m not being a brat, you just can’t stand that I’m not some scared little lamb who will just let you talk to me like shit. And I mean, look at you. There’s clearly something wrong with you as you’re moping about and clawing at the walls like an untrained house cat.” Frankie rubbed at her neck when the other released her, eyes glaring daggers as she walked by. “Oh bite me, lady. I’m not scared of you.” She hissed, her fists clenching at her sides. She didn’t turn her gaze to the other in the room, preferring instead to look to the ground as she kicked her shoe against it.

“You have no idea what makes me interesting, you don’t know my story, so don’t pretend that you can read me...” The blonde scoffed, before being shoved by Dawn, the queen speaking to her Romanian to stop Frankie from understanding, Angelique only barking back at Dawn in Romanian. “And that thing you have no idea of, what are you the type of pathetic person that shames a person for having emotions, God, what does that make you?” The witch snipped up Dawn shut the door in her face. Dawn rolled her eyes, tired of reckless baby vampires and simply sat down at her piano and began to play, the queen to proud to console the other for what she viewed as she stupid attitude, even if she was meant to be a ‘vampire aunt’ to the other.

“Mon dieu....” Dawn sighed, sitting back in her chair and pinching the bridge of her nose, the queen felt stressed with the long days that came from the new movement from the hunters, the queen having been more on edge since her mother had been attacked “Please take me back to 4,000 years ago where I was living in a cave and taking each day with ease and learning” @prettywithblood (anyone)

“Then perhaps you shouldn’t be so ignorant to the suffering of others.” Frankie only glared when she was choked, her voice strained when she spoke again. “If it was a lack of caring about complaining, you wouldn’t be so intent on trying to put me in my place. If you didn’t care , you’d have just left me be, wouldn’t you? Poor broken witch can’t handle it when someone tries to talk to her on an intellectual level. Perhaps because you’re too stupid to grasp the fact that suffering is bigger than what you class it as and that you’re elitist scum.” Frankie’s head turned sharply when she heard another voice, her gaze watching the other for a moment before raging eyes turned back to the blonde.

“I don’t care about others” Angelique said simply, only pushing her powers harder as she almost zoned out, going straight into her killer instinct mode. “You are hardly talking to me on an intellectual level at all, you’re being nothing but a ridiculous brat. You have no idea if I’m broken, you are making an assumption, an incredibly stupid one” she scoffed, the witch glaring at her, thinking of all the things she could do to break the other apart. Dawn stepped in front of Angelique and leaned in before she whispered something in her ear for Frankie not to hear, this making the blonde witch relax and release the other from her grip.  “Now we’re not losing our heads anymore...” Dawn sighed more calmly, then looking to Angelique and giving a small nod to her, the blonde looking to Frankie “Sleep with one eye open...” she warned before Dawn hissed to dismiss the witch, glaring at her until she left,

“You don’t scare me Asrid…” Emily said quietly blood trickling down her mouth. “As I don’t expect you to be frightened of me.” She added. “Yes… see what the future has in store of us shall we?” She said withva smirk. “So what is it you do here?”

“We’ll see about that, I mean many fear me” she said proudly, before she shrugged “There is that, we’re at an impasse with the throwing of fear” she mused. “We could almost be beneficial to each other one day” she admitted, before she then bent herself backwards into the gymnastics ‘crab’ position. “Just a little bit of contortion, yourself?”

Danny fell slightly when Dawn spoke. She sighed and closed her eyes. “I supposed you’re right..” she said later.

Dawn sighed softly, running her fingers through her mop of hair. “I don’t want to lose you...” she mumbled “But I can’t keep this going on, you never want to do your princess duties, you never want to even be in the same room with me, you barely feed....I just think my mom should look after you.”

Once they were gone Danny looked down to her hands and sighed sadly. “I’m so sorry.. I didn’t mean for the two of you to get into a fight.” She said in a quiet but stable voice. Her eyes met Dawn’s. “Forgive me, for overreacting..” she added but you could clearly see the fear in Danny’s eyes. She was so afraid that Dawn was actually going to let her go. Then Danny would be alone. It was her worst fear.

The huge bat let out a low shuddering huff, her ears beginning to stand back up again since Aceline was no longer close, she then changed herself back to her human form and crossed her legs as she sat, still looking as regal as ever. “I really think our connection is doing nothing for us anymore, you’re unhappy, I’m unhappy because you’re unhappy” she began.

I’m the Aerialist not the fool.” Anastasia said with a cocky grin. Then she licked her lips and folded her arms across her chest. She did have a point, using real names could cause a problem. “Emily..” she said quietly.

“Well, time will tell on that one” The vampire scoffed, shaking her head “Take it from me, that heart was from someone who crossed me” she added, before nodding “Well Emily, here’s to putting up with each other for the unforeseeable future”

“Oh but I could have hundreds of thousands of men storm your home and dispose of everything you ever loved. Don’t test me.” She whispered keeping a small grin on her face. “A truce, I’ll have to accept your offer.” Anastasia said taking the heart and biting off a piece. “What was your name again?” She wondered.

“Well, one would hope that you weren’t that stupid to try it....” Dawn tisked, before cupping the others cheek and giving it a playful tap “You’re not a fool are you?” she asked. “We don’t have to do real names, do we?” she mused “Especially since actual names could cause problems, just call me....Astrid. What do you want me to call you?”

Danny turned away from the fight and sobbed out shutting her eyes and laying on the bed defeated. Regan sat by Danny and sighed watching the fight herself, and when Aceline came out on top Regan sighed and gently placed her hand on Aceline’s snout. “Honestly… fighting like that is reallly stupid.” Regan said.

Dawn stayed pancaked on the floor until Aceline said otherwise, her ears flat against her head, her beady eyes watching Danny and Regan. Aceline grunted at her progeny in agreement, before clicking about how Dawn needed to be pulled down a peg or two, the bat then beginning to lick Regan, like a mother cat washing it’s kitten.

“Neither do I.. but hiding from our enemies and our past is what we really want, isn’t it?” She said softly watching the vampire take a bite out of the heart. “I’m not here to pick a fight. But once we cross the border out of Russia, I’ll be out of your hair.”

“I could just go back to my actual life and have you executed if you don’t watch your tongue” The other warned “So, then we’ll give each other a grace period then....A parlay of sorts?” she offered, then holding out the heart for the other “A truce....One that keeps the others secret”

“Ah but I’m not a dog my dear.” Anastasia said quickly in French back. She smiled at her again and tilted her head. “What makes you think I want to challenge you. You and I are here for the same reasons, not to earn some petty cash in hand.”

Originally posted by but-the-truth-lies

“You may as well be one, you look positively feral” she grumbled in French, annoyed the other could understand her, the vampire then picking up a box and taking out a heart, the woman taking a bite of it. “You’d be wrong, I don’t need the cash at all”

“And you don’t know anything about me or how I feel. And when I tell you how I feel, you just shrug it off.” She whined stepping back and going to stand by Aceline and cried into her shoulder.

“I’m listening to you! And then we are fine, then you go off and sulk because you get jealous! You’re worse than a witches familiar!” she yelled, Acelline then hissed at Dawn, this making Dawn get revved up and turn into her bat form, snarling and snapping at Aceline. Aceline only then carefully setting Danny to the side before changing herself and giving Dawn a loud warning snarl, like that of a mother warning a child. Dawn huffed and made a sneeze of a noise before clicking, the two obviously having a bitter argument in the bat language. it was then that Dawn struck at Aceline for something the elder snarled at her, the two immediately beginning to fight but it didn’t take long for Aceline to grab Dawn and best her, the vampire sinking in her teeth to the scruff of Dawn’s neck and forcing her to submit on the floor, growling as she did so. Dawn made little clicks and whines before she gave in and lay flat on the floor like a pancake, Aceline slowly letting go of her and cleaning the puncture wounds from her fangs on the younger bats neck before she then plodded over to Danny, grunting at her and then going to snuffle at Regan too.

“Not a problem, I love sleeping outside.” Anastasia happily said with a smirk. Immediately once the curtains were shut Anastasia flashed right in front of Dawn and smiled. “And you don’t know anything of mine so let’s not get ahead of ourselves.”

“Of course you do, dogs often do...” Dawn mumbled in French, thinking that Emily couldn’t understand her. The vampire then almost stumbled back when Emily flashed in front of her. “Almost sounds like you’re trying to challenge me, I wouldn’t pick anything with me...I’m rather old.”

Danny wiped away her blood from face. “You hurt me Dawn! It’s not about you ever being actually here for me or taking care of me, Aceline does a fine job of that.” She snapped and walked up to her Maker. “It’s not about me being KIDNAPPED and forced to be something I didn’t want to be. Against my own will. Should I ad.” She paused to let more tears stream down her face. “You chose my Sister to be your pet. Whom I’ve told you how horrible she treated me in the past and you waved it off like you don’t care! You got back with Emily even if she broke your heart and used you to get a spot in the top. And i warned you, but you ignored me.” Danny shoved Dawn weakly. “It’s never about any one else. But you! You don’t care about anyone.” She barked. “So release me, I won’t hurt you at all right? You’ve already done enough damage to me already what more will this do?”

Dawn snarled when she was pushed back by the younger vampire, she hated the others words because deep down she knew they were true. “You don’t know the first thing about me...” she warned, her eyes beginning to redden and her large fangs on show as she watched her. “I don’t want to...” she mumbled, shaking her head, feeling her insides beginning to tear. Acelline now stood in silence looking completely distraught. “Dawn...” she tried as she saw her daughter struggling with the choice. “Danny I-...” The queen stammered, her eyes filling with blood tears.

Emily slowed down so Joan could catch up but kept her eyes fixated on Dawn. When Aceline barked, Danny slowly shut her eyes as more blood ran down her cheeks. Trying not to sob out as she cried. Emily was in the doorway but decided to let the three of them talk so she shut the door and turned to Joan. “We can check on them later..”

Danny sobbed loudly and folded her arms across her chest tightly, holding herself. “I can’t do this anymore.. I can’t.” She whined. “I’ll be nothing more to you than second best..” she couldn’t even look at Dawn, too scared to see the anger in her face. “I’m second best to everyone.” She sobbed louder.

Joan nodded at Emily and stayed with her maker, not at all wanting to be in the room with what was happening. Dawn lightly hissed at Acelline as if she were a cat and this got a glare from her mother. “Then you don’t have to do this anymore, because I am fucking tired of this, tired of you making me feel bad for loving more than one person…” The queen yelled “I try so damn hard with you and all you do is bitch and moan because I’m not there solely for you!” she added. “I think it’s probably time I release you, then you’re free of this place, free of me, free of the crown” she added, this making Acelline suck in a breath “Dawn you’ll regret it” Acelline tried again but weaker.
