When Tethys told me what she really was, I stumbled back and nearly fell out of my chair before I had gotten out of it. My daggers were in my hands and I tensed. "Natha . . .sanguine! Ele xunus dos naut tesso uns'aa?" (a vampire! Why did you not tell me?)

I watched as she got out of her chair and pulled out her daggers and I sighed and shook my head and said "I did not want to scare you....would you have trusted me if I told you I was a sanguine?" I then got out of my chair and walked to her and went on one knee and said "Usstan tlun taudl, Usstan zhal'la inbal della dos"(I am sorry, I should have told you)

I held my ground for a long while, even when she came near me and knelt down, telling me that she was sorry and that she should have told me . . . My hands gripped the twin blades and I was lost in conflict . . . "My . . .par-rents . . .w-were killed . . .by sanguine . . ." I shook my head and dropped my daggers, and then sank to my knees, crying for a second time . . . "I . . .killed sanguine . . ."

I listened to her and now knew why she reacted the way she did and then I saw her then drop her daggers and sank to her knees and cried so I embraced her and said “I am so sorry about your parents Verin…I had no idea they were killed by vampires.” I then remembered my parent’s death and a blood tear ran down my cheek and I said “I know how it feels because a vampire killed mine too and I got my revenge…but know that I am not like the ones who killed your parents…I am different and would never harm anyone unless I had no choice.”

I sniffed an wiped my eyes, touching Tethys' cheek as the blood tear ran down it . . . I didn't know that they cried . . .and cried in blood no less . . . I smiled a little sadly at her and said . . . "Usstan zhaun Tethys . . .dos ph' ussta abbil nin, xuat ul'nusst." (it's ok Tethys, you are my friend now, don't cry.) I hugged her, suddenly feeling very close to the woman who had taken me in. "Usstan daewl ulu kyorl l' che'el xuil dos vel'drav isto chu." (I wish to see the city with you when night comes.)

I smiled at Verin and said "You are my friend too" and then I hugged her back and let her go and then picked up her daggers and handed them back to her. "We will go to the city soon...but first would you like dinner and a nice warm bath before we go" I said and then could not believe that time went by so fast.

I took my daggers from Tethys as she handed them to me and then nodded. "Yes . . .food w-would be goo-good." and a bath was sounding even better. . .

"Ok, please follow me" I said and lead her into the bathroom and then I went to the tub and turned on the water and put the plug in and the added bubble bath and said "I will cook you something to eat while you take a bath ok, the towels are behind the door and there are a few bath toys under the sink if you like to play in the bath." I laughed because I remembered when I use to play with toys in the tub, and then I turned off the water and said "I will be in the kitchen" and left her and shut the door so she could get her bath.

I nodded to Tethys as she explained the layout of the bathroom . . .she added bubbles to the bath . . .strange. . . When she had gone. I stood there looking at the tub. I was not used to taking a bath this way. Usually it had been in an underground spring of some sort, considering that I had not gone outside in the outer world much of my life . . .such was the way of my people . . .so this was a very new experience. However, the idea seemed the same. So, I removed my clothing, dug around for some of the "toys" that Tethys had mentioned, threw them in the water and went in. I jumped in the tub, letting the hot water rush over me, and the bubbles cover me. I came up sputtering and full of suds. I blinked and then smiled . . . I liked bubble baths.

I heard splashing around and smiled and could not believe the last time I was like this. I then turned on the stove and put in some chicken and closed it and on top I pot a small pot of potatoes and green beans and then wondered if she would like what was being cooked for I have never cooked a full meal for anyone but humans.
