Vaughn Sumner
Perhaps it was fate.
No, but the logical did not believe in such things. Years of knowledge have eradicated much from what had been the ignorant mind of man. Sciences and theories and laws had emerged and the times were vastly different than the past. No one would trust such fallacies. They were merely tools of liars and thieves that wished to make a fortune playing the mind of a naive individual. Being alive for many years opens one's eyes to see things like this. You saw all the underhanded tricks that went on around you and all the skulduggery that you never noticed go on when you were alive. So hidden, yet so apparent.
Vaughn was not one to dwell on the past, yet all his existence is built on it. Perhaps it was the night dawning upon the city that had awoken his slumbering mind. The sparkling of darkness across the Dam Square seemed to resound within his being that night. It wasn't like it was a different night than all of those before. It was just... a little nostalgic. Taking a look around, Vaughn noted the now-affluent use of electric lights; something that he had seen invented and rise to common use. In fact, sometimes it made him wonder how easily he got used to the "modern" house he resided in. The aesthetic appeal was certainly much different compared to the dwellings of decades past. Still, keeping up the appearances of a young man meant that Vaughn had to stay with the times. He had no problem with doing so, either. After all, maintaining a certain amount of charm served to be quite useful sometimes, especially in the reciprocal society of mankind.
It did not serve Vaughn's temper well, however, to be forced to behave as a lowly human. He was after all, immortal and worthy of being feared. If he were given the option, he would not hesitate to exert his dominance over the boorish common-folk that littered the area. They would all cater to his whims, like they should, according to the principles of Darwinism.
Brooding over his thoughts, Vaughn strolled about the Square, which was slowly becoming deserted as the night settled further in. Nobody paid attention to him under the circumstances, which served him well as he did not want to be bothered. However, to be treated as a peer... that irked him. *Perhaps I'll hunt tonight,* he thought to himself as he glanced across the plaza for a suitable target. If he could catch a beautiful being to pique his interest, the night might be a little more exciting for him.
Colette Hendricks
It was unusually for Colette to be alone, usually she stayed with her Entourage of vampires. They were the ones who were her family now, after all her real ones had died so many years ago and some one she had managed to escape death. Just to arguable suffer a fate far worth then death. To be turned immortal. To watch the human she knew and love grow old and die. Not wanting to be selfish by turning them immortal just so she could keep them with her forever. Or perhaps it was that she feared that if she turned them they would get bored of her and leave. As much as she loved and trusted Victor and Charlie who had been there for her since day one she always feared what would happen to her if they were killed or left. One life time alone was sad, but several lifetimes alone would seem depressing. There were those out there that did it, though she had no idea how. The company of those around her kept her Sane and happy.
Compared to her companions Colette was quite young for a vampire, only 95 years old though had the appearance of a 17 year old. She still had things in life that she felt she needed to learn and wasn't always a rational thinker. While she was a good natured person for the most part, she could also be quite selfish and mean when she wanted to be.
Colette sat on one of the stairs fidgeting with a small electronic item in her hand that kept going off making obnoxious sounds. The girl seemed clueless with how to work the item but had not given up quite yet. Determined to shut the device up if it was the last thing she did. Finally being irritated to no end she chucked the device quite hard against the ground making it shatter. Colette had never been one to get use to these modern day electronics. The Internet, cell phones, ipods they were all to complicated and turned people into lazy zombies who did nothing but sit in front of a screen "Facebook Stalking" people. None of it appealed to her and the shattered phone on the ground was one less irrelevant device to have to deal with in her opinion.
Maybe some day they would grow on her but for now she wanted nothing to do with them. Sitting quietly she watched people leaving the square some holding hands with a lover others leaving alone. It was dark and still a few people were Left dwelling in the area. It was times like these when she found herself alone that she started to worry about her safety. Sure she was a superior being, but even as a vampire she was quite weak.
 Vaughn Sumner
It didn't take long for Vaughn to locate a rather enticing young woman sitting on the edge of the stairs. She had smashed a device on the concrete, which didn't seem of any importance to Vaughn. After all, her possessions wasn't what he was after. In fact, material objects were by far the easiest thing to gain for him. There was no need to strip others of such trivial things. What he wanted was the blood. The succulent taste of which he had grown accustomed to over the decades.
Approaching her, steadily but not at an alarming rate, Vaughn closed the distance between them. He didn't know if she had noticed him already, but it didn't matter. Humans were, in the end, prey.
However, as he closed in, something seemed a bit... off. Vaughn couldn't quite put his finger on it so he just buried the thought in the back of his mind. Nothing would really stop him from getting his meal at this point anyways. The light from nearby lamps served well enough for his vision and when he finally entered a reasonable radius of the woman, Vaughn put on a charming smile. This smile was something that he never had the need to change over the years. It served its deceiving purpose again and again and this time it would be no different. The wiles of a vampire was nothing to scoff at.
"Good evening," he said, letting the all-too-familiar saying slip off his tongue. It was really the most common greeting that he utilized nowadays. "Good morning"s and "Good day"s were simply not practical with Vaughn's nocturnal behaviors. It was perhaps a hidden blessing that all the technologies of the humans had worked to keep them up through the dark blanket of night, thus opening new doors for the predator to choose from.
"It's a nice night out, isn't it?" he followed, attempting to strike up some sort of small talk. The contents would not matter much, but there just seemed to lack some sort of decency when swooping straight in for the kill. After all, while he may be a ruthless rebel, Vaughn was not a barbarian. Moreover, there was just this sense of fun that came with seducing a target into submission.
Still, something seemed off.
