The Causeway, Late Monday Night/Early Monday Morning

[glacial_queen]

Karla stared at the Causeway. She needed to simply cross it and she’d be on the mainland. And there were plenty of people there who would enjoy taking advantage of a young girl, one who appeared lost and vulnerable. She would have no problem showing them the error of their ways, no problem with claiming the debt that their other victims couldn’t.

No problem with getting rid of whatever was left when she was done.

The Blood had no laws against murder, but even if they did, it wouldn’t matter. This wasn’t murder. It was justice.

She smiled and took the first step onto the Causeway.

"She attacked me," Max answered. "I did what had to be done." The same thing he would have done to Raven in the same situation. He shot the empath a glare. She was taking up time he'd rather be spending trying to figure out what was wrong.

"You will answer to me if you have damaged her," Raven seethed. Why no, she wasn't transferring her own vampire!Max issues to this situation, why do you ask? "And I will ask you one more time: What. Did. You. Do?" If she knew, she'd have a better chance at bringing Karla back from wherever her mind had fled.

Max tried not to roll his eyes at Raven's tone. "We fought. When she realized she was beaten she collapsed. I don't know what did this to her, though."

"And you did...what you did to me?" Raven said. "Or something else?"

"No, not the same thing," Max shook his head. "This fight was physical, not emotional." Well, mostly.

Raven let out a relieved breath, allowing herself to relax, just a little. Physical wounds were easier to heal than emotional ones, but it didn't explain why she was picking up nothing from Karla now. Something else had to be wrong. "Thank you," she said stiffly, turning to kneel beside Karla, reaching out with her gifts to try to find out what was wrong as well as heal any physical wounds her friend might have suffered in her fight with Max.

Max just nodded.

And made a mental note to discuss this reaction with Raven in detail later.
