Of course, she wasn't mad at Ruby in the least. But the situation wasn't helping her mood. She drew her knees up to her chest, resting on her chin on them. "Ruby. I'm sorry for acting this way. But I'm not used to being jerked around like this. I'm not used... to being given orders to hunt down someone. And I'm certainly not used to there being an unknown threat on the horizon. Ok: So I've lived a rather cushy life until now. Is that a crime? I don't think it's unreasonable to assume that these are things a normal 18 year old girl doesn't have to deal with too often. Right?"She turned her head away from Ruby, still resting it on her knee. A silence passed between them before she spoke again, "And I'm sorry for fighting with Lacey. But you know? When I saw that stake go through Koln... Ruby, I thought he was gone! I wasn't brought up with knowledge of the supernatural. Heh, I was brought up with Dracula. Stake to the heart? I thought... we had lost him. And in that moment... all I wanted was to make Lacey pay. Should I just assume that everything I've ever known about vampires is a lie, Ruby? Because if that's the case, I'm really tempted... The sun will be up in a few hours. Too soon. And, if I won't burn up... I'd really like to see it again." She hesitated, "And... if I do burn up... maybe I deserve it..."</blockquote>
