ACROSS TIME

Elle walked over to Fay and shook her gentely, "Wake up," She said sweetly. Fay lifted her hand up and shook it in a shooing motion, "Not now Jillian, let mommy sleep," She yawned, "Irving, tuck Jillian in again," She reached out to find her husband but felt nothing. She immediately shot up and looked at Elle. She narrowed her eyes and her hand found it's way to Elle's thin neck, "You, what did you do to my family?" She asked.

Elle couldn't breathe and kneed Fay in the stomach who immediately let go.

"You hit me!" Fay said in a shocked voice.

"You choked me," Elle told her, she didn't really like this woman.

"Well, I'm sorry, but where's my family?" She asked.

"Probably where ever you're from," Elle told Fay, "Where are you from anyway? It's obviously isn't here or 2007..."

"No... I'm not, my name's Fay and I'm from, well, not 2007,"

"Sucks," Elle bluntly stated, "Well, My name's Elle, welcome to hell Fay."

"Wait, wait, wait....2007?" Irving said in dis-belief, as he followed Dominic through the shadows. "That...that would explain this crazy layout and those moving metal things."

"Automobiles." Dominic said flatly. "They are the primary form of transportation in this time."

"Geez...sure beats horses." Irving said. "So...this Elle, she's important to you?"

Dominic stopped in his tracks and turned to face Irving, his eyes burning like two coals.

"She is the only person in this world I have ever loved. I'm afraid I may lose her to..to my own ignorance. I would be crushed."

Irving nodded, tensing up as another car came zooming by.

"Well...this may not be my time, but I still know how to lay a hurting. You said you were a vampire, right? Well, keep tracking that scent. We need it..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Easy ladies!" Marge said, stepping between the two. "we're all on the same page here, ok? Now...let's just relax. It's getting time for sleep anyway. All of the cots in the back room are taken up, but one, so you two are gonna have to share."

She threw her cigarette on the ground and ground it out with her bare foot.

"And no fighting! If those blood suckers here you two scrappin', they'll kill us all!"

Fay looked at Elle, who looked as if she was ready to pass out from exhaustion, "I just woke up, well, basically, plus you need the sleep," She looked around the room and sighed, "I thought that I left this life..." Fay looked up at Elle and sighed, "You're just a girl, how did you get mixed up in this mess?" She asked.

"Girl? Who are you calling a girl? I'm almost as old as you are," Elle told Fay, standing up. She placed her hands on her hips.

Fay laughed and stood up also, she towered over Elle who was only about five foot three inches. Fay was about a head taller then Elle, "Well, I have seen nearly two full centuries, now three, because I am here, I reached nearly my one hundred and thirtieth birthday before I gave away my immortality so I wouldn't have to watch my husband die of old age as I stayed the same,"

"Immortality? What are you?" Elle asked.

"I was born an Elf," Fay told Elle who just smiled, "You?"

"Demon."

"Well, it's nice to meet you,"

"Same here, maybe tomorrow we'll find some clothes that make it look like you from this time," She told Fay.

"The scent stops here..." Dominic said, stopping about a 100 yards or so away from a large, grotesque looking building.

"So our ladies are in there?"

"More than likely. This would appear the auctions are taking place."

Irving grinned and grabbed both of his daggers from his belt, twirling them again with expert speed.

"GOOD! I saw we charge in, I slice and dice and you, um...suck." he said. Dominic rolled his eyes.

"Did it ever occur to you we are grossly out-numbered? The odds are against us if we blindly charge into battle."

"Well excuse me, pointy teeth! So how the hell do you suggest we get in there? Ask nicely?"

Dominic ignored that last part, instead using his inhuman hearing abilities to listen to the two guards stationed out front.

"I may have an idea." the vampire finally said. "It would appear that the auction was scheduled for a few more days, but they're pushing it ahead. Tomorrow, at noon."

"And?"

Dominic smirked, as the plan was forming nicely in his head.

"We will need disguises as not to be recognized. We will disguise ourselves as near royalty, rich, elite, powerful. Once in, we'll bid on the girls, and when it comes time for payment, we sneak out. Elle and I will have to move to a new apartment and we still need to find a way to get you back to your own time"

Irving nodded, sliding his daggers back into their sheaths.

"So what now? Do we head back to the apartment? We're gonna need this outfits."

Dominic gestured to the building next to him, a large sign reading "MCCARTHY'S SUITS"

"Here. We sneak in, retrieve the suits and shall slumber on the roof."

"Wait, wait...aren't you a vampire?" Irving said. "Won't the sun make you, ya know, go all ka-blooey?"

Dominic sighed heavily, as this was going to be dangerous.

"At the top of the roof is a small over-hang. That should shield from the sun. Once I'm in the sunlight, I'd need to have every inch of my skin covered, or else it'll be too late."

"Then what are waiting for, Count? Let's do this."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The clock was ticking late, as Elle and Fay tried to make the best of their situation, sharing as much of the tiny cot as possible. Elle was the last one to fall asleep, images of Dominic dancing through her head.

As the night went on, the door to the room clicked softly as a guard snuck in. Tip toeing across the room, he leaned over Elle's bed and, with his full vampiric strength, covered her mouth with his hands, holding a blade to her throat.

"Say one word and it's over." he hissed quietly. "Now...this is what we're going to do. You're going to take everything off and walk across the room to the storage closet. Once there, you will lie down on the cot and wait for me. UNDERSTAND?"

Elle jumped when she felt the hand on her mouth, she listened to what the guard had to say and nodded to let him know she understood.

The guard left her so she could disrobe herself. She got out of bed, her whole body shaking. She was only in her underwear and her tank top, she quickly took those off. Normally demons had powers of their own, something that would be quite useful in a time like this. She probably posessed said powers but was either unable to, or to lazy to, figure out how to use them, which was quite a problem.

Her body was pale and very thin, her ribs could be easily seen as groves in her skin. Her pale flesh was decorated with several scars. The most visible, and freshest one, was the one on her stomach.

She held onto her one arm, to cover her chest and walked to the other room, as she was ordered, she believed this to all be a dream but found out that it was not when she steped on something on the floor, it sank deeply into her flesh, which refused to break. She cursed under her breath, opened the door silently and closed it in the same mannor.

"Why me..." She whispered as she lay down on the cot, a single tear ran down her cheek.

The guard followed her in, pulling a small chain that hung from the ceiling. The room was nothing more than a storage closet, with buckets, mops, brooms and cleaning chemicals decorating the walls and corners.

He quickly unbuttoned his shirt, followed by unzipping his pants and disrobing almost faster than Elle did. It was obvious he was...looking forward...to the event and he groaned a bit, just kneeling in front of her on the cot.

His rough, calloused hands crudely massaged and kneaded her breasts, sending waves of delight through his body. He leaned down to lick her neck, his hands pinching her nipples.

"Mm...I'm gonna fuck you so hard..." he croaked in her ear.

"Gonna do what?!"

Immediately, the guard shot up off Elle and turned around to see the severe face of one his co-workers. A supervisor, actually.

"Just what the hell do you think you're doing?!" the supervisor bellowed. The current guard looked down at his feet, knowing full well the consequences of getting caught.

"I...uh...you see..."

"You god damn moron! You know the risks of fooling with the merchandise! Now get dressed and meet me in my office. I'm going to notify Mr. Thorn and you better hope your lucky fucking stars he spares you! NOW GO!"

The guard awkwardly grabbed his clothes and scurried off to the main office, knowing full well his days are numbered.

The main supervisor looked at Elle with a leer in his eye, smirking slightly to himself.

"Get dressed and go back to bed. Your auction is tomorrow."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dominic and Irving had managed to sneak inside the store, with Dominic serving as an 'adviser' of sorts to help the thief find a nice modern day suit. Dominic, to protect himself from the morning sun, located a trench coat, a large fedora hat and sunglasses. He was ready.

"I hope this works...." Irving said, as he stuffed the suit into a bag.

"It has no choice but to work." Dominic said. "For our sake and thiers, it has no choice but to work."

Elle crossed her arms, "I am not merchandice, you cannot sell me off to the highest bidder," She smiled a little, "Your own days are numbered," She knew this would either get her beaten, killed or maybe nothing would happen, but she didn't really care, she didn't have anything to live for.

She just walked out of the room and sat down on hers and Fay's bed and pulled on her clothes. She was ready to put on her pants and try to escape, but she knew that was foolish.

Fay opened her eyes and looked up at Elle's shaking form. She sat up and put her arm around Elle, "Hey... Are you alright?" She asked.

Elle nodded but it was obvious she was lying. Fay brushed her fingers through Elle's hair who just rested her head on Fay's chest the pair laid down and Fay covered them up. Neiter fell asleep for more then an hour for the rest of that night.

"We'll see about that, sweet tits." the guard sneered. "Mr. Thorn himself is said to be very interested in you and will probably bid on you as his new mistress. Oh and your weird dressed friend can come along and share the fun."

With one final glance of Elle's naked body before she got dressed, he shrugged and left the storage room, locking it from the outside so no one could sneak in and tamper with the merchandise again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Irving rested his bag next to him, rolling up another suit jacket he had swiped to be used as a pillow. The moon was out now and Irving's body was used to waking up at the crack of dawn anyway.
The roof top was nothing but concrete, except for the overhang which led to a small metal door.

Dominic laid flat on his back, missing the days of his casket. He sighed heavily and looked at the full moon in the sky, wondering if Elle saw the same thing.

It was hours before either one of them fell asleep, the broken hearts of a thief and a vampire keeping them awake.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"ALRIGHT LADIES!" one of the guards shouted at the bright and early morning."The auctions starts in two hours. So let's get ready..."

Reaching for a key in his belt, he unlocked another door in the room, swinging it open as it creaked loudly. Inside was a plain concrete room with several drains on the floor. Decorating the walls were various metallic shower heads, with bars of plain soap hanging from withered strings of rope between each shower head. There were no benches, lockers or any kind of divider between the shower heads.

"Get naked and get clean!" he said with a leer. "Mr. Thorn is gonna be here in about an hour to personally inspect each and every one of you. You DO NOT want to disappoint him."

Elle heard a groan as she took off her clothes, "This reminds me of jail," One of the blonder women stated.

She heard a laugh, "You would know,"

Fay and Elle both sneered a little, "How can they laugh at a time like this..." She whispered as the pair walked over to the showers.

"The women of this era are, very uneducaited about the true life of a harlot..." Fay said quietly. Elle just nodded, "What... What is this?" Fay asked, pointing at the shower head.

"It's a shower, it's an invention that makes bathing much faster, and less of a waste of water.

"Ah..." Fay said simply as they turned on their water.

The guards whistled, yelped and hollered as they watched all of the ladies shower. From a security camera in his office, Mr. Thorn grinned as the camera zoomed in on Elle. Something about the soft and fragile features of her young body gave the centuries old vampires goosebumps. He had grown tired of the spent, washed up and burned out whores. No, he wanted something a bit more...fresh.

"Jeeves..." he said summoning his personal assistant. "...bring the girl and her new friend to my office. Have them dry off, put on some nice robes and bring them here to me."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Irving zipped up the pants of his pin-strip suit and took a deep sigh of confusion. This was all so new to him...this time...this era. Everything.

Dominic was quick to put on the trenchcoat, fedora and sunglasses, trying to block as much skin as possible. Sneaking down from the roof, and before the owner of the store showed up, the two made their way to the entrance of the auction house.

The guard looked the two over before casually shrugging and letting them in. Irving gasped once inside, realizing he was the only human waiting to bid. All of the windows were bricked up, so no sunlight could peak in. Dominic breathed a sigh of relief and shed his outer clothing, keeping him just down to his suit.

"Auction starts in about 30 minutes, fellas..." a random voice said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mr. Thorn grinned as the two ladies stood before him, wearing nothing but flimsy cotton robes. Standing up from his leather office chair, he slyly ran the back of his hand down Elle's cheek, grinning wickedly.

"I have an...offer for you ladies. If you join me as my concubines, I can see to it you're treated like royalty. The greatest wealth and pleasures shall be yours. Now...if you would, my ladies...drop the robes. Let's see what you have to...offer."

Elle tenced up when she heard this. She wasn't exactally comefortable with showing her body to anyone. Infact the only one who had ever seen her, besides family, without clothes on. At first she refused, infact she held even more tightly onto the cotton.

Fay was a little more outgoing with her body, she also would rather not be killed for something pointless, she had a family to worry about. So she complied, Elle, noticing this, slowly let go of her robe, letting it fall to the ground.

Elle attempted to cover her body with her arms, Fay just stood there boldly, "It'll be ok," She whispered to Elle.

Thorn waved his guards away and grinned wickedly at the two naked beauties before him. He licked his lips and he stood up from his office chair, inspecting Fay from head to toe.

"Simply flawless..." he said, sizing her up from head to toe. "But the way you hold yourself...your pose. You seem experienced, yes? I gather this is nothing new for you. Perhaps something in your past has grown you numb to the concept of being used by strange men. But you..."

He almost purred with satisfaction as he dragged his index finger down Elle's soft lips, his grin turning into something of a more seductive nature.

"You seem so fresh, so fragile...so...honest. Yes, you are far from corrupted. I think I shall extend my offer just to you..."

By this point, Fay had enough and went to slug the crime lord, her blood boiling at this poor girl being forced to endure this. Thorn took the full brunt of her hit and took a step back, surprised at how she could slug him. But it wasn't enough to do much damage, as he back handed her hard across the face, sending her crumbling to the ground in a heap.

"GUARDS!" he bellowed. "REMOVE HER AND TAKE HER TO THE DORM!"

As quickly as he commanded, the guards came in and drug the out cold Fay out, taking her back to the dorm to dress her up.

"And now my sweet...that leaves you and I..." he said with another grin. Elle tried her best to push away, but Thorn was too fast for her. He pinned both her hands over head to the desk, leaning her on her back, as she struggled in vain to free herself.

"Mmm..I am going to enjoy this." he said, using his free hand to unzip his pants and yank them down to his knees. This was followed by his boxers, exposing his excitement to the cool air of the air conditioning of his office.

Elle closed her eyes and looked away as the vampiric crime boss slid himself inside of her, gasping at the snug fit.

"Unggghhhhffff..." he grunted. "You are a gem...a rose."

With his free hand crudely massaging and fondling her breasts, he began to rock and thrust his hips, pumping his manhood in and out at a frantic pace.

"Fucccckkk..." he groaned. She was nearly half his age, but it didn't stop him. If anything, it added fuel to his fire. He wasn't going to stop till the very end.

Elle refused to look at Thorn, or even acknowledge what he was doing to her. She closed her eyes, the pain was unbariable. Thorn was the exact opposite of Dominic. He was cold and uncaring towards here where Dominic was warm and gentile.

Thron seemed to notice her stubornness because with a swift movement his palm met her cheek, leaving a dark red mark on her cheek that would soon turn into a bruise.

Elle squeezed her eyes shut tighter, "DOMINIC!" She screamed as loud as her lungs would allow. She didn't know if anyone could hear her, though she was loud enough so the sound would carry through the halls. This only increased Thorn's desire.

Dominic idly sipped on a glass of wine attempting to ignore the other vampires who wishes to make small talk with him. Faintly, very faintly, he heard Elle's scream and dropped his glass out of shock.

"What's wrong?" Irving said under his breath.

"It's...Elle. She's in trouble..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Dominic? That your boyfriend?" Thorn sneered. "Hate to break it to your sister, but no one can save you now."

Harder and harder he thrusted, hammering, pumping, himself in and out of Elle, showing no signs of slowing down nor caring if it hurt her. It was beyond anything he had ever experienced, as compared to the loose, broken whores he normally had. No, t his was an experience all together new. She felt like a virgin, though he could tell by the scent in her blood she wasn't.

"Unngggh...." he grunted, still pinning her arms over her head with just one hand. His hips rocked against hers, skin slapping loudly and crudely against skin.

He was just about ready to peak and explode inside of her when...


"Lord Thorn!"

A guard burst into the room, short on breath as he wheezed for air. His eyes adjusted to the scene in front of him and quickly looked away, blushing slightly.

"WHAT IS IT?!" he asked, slowing down a bit, but not stopping.

"The auction starts in 5 minutes...the girl, she's needed with the others."

Thorn growled with irritation and pulled himself out of Elle reluctantly, his eyes still wild with lust. He paused for a moment, before leaning down and whispering in her ear "I plan on bidding on you, my dear. No one in this city can match my wealth. You shall be mine and once this auction is over we shall...finish what we started."

He sealed the deal by licking her cheek, before pushing her hard off the desk.

"Take her away from me. I will prepare for the auction."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Program, sir." one of the many vampire lackeys said, handing it to Irving.

"Uhh, yeah. Thanks my fellow vampire! Happy blood sucking!" he said. The vampire just looked at Irving oddly, before shaking his head and walking off. Irving glanced at the flier, his eyes lighting up when he saw what he needed.

"Right here!" he said. "They're going on first, together. Elle and Fay."

"Then we must hurry." Dominic said, his eyes hollow with rage. "I am afraid of what they may have done to the girls."

As soon as Elle's feet hit the ground, the guard took her by the arm and pulled her out of the room. There was blood on the inside of her thighs. The door was almost closed when Elle turned around, "I hope you die before I get to you! You fucking bastard!" She screamed.

~~~

Fay was dropped down on the bed roughly then shook until she woke up, which wasn't long. She jumped up, nearly hitting the guard, "The auction's in five minutes. Get ready."

The MC for the evening tapped the microphone on stage, sending horrendous feedback that echoed throughout the room. Almost instantly, everyone's attention.

"Okay gentlemen, let's get started shall we? Remember, all of tonight's money will be donated to charity in the name of Thorn Industries..."

"Wait..." Irving whispered to Dominic. "Why donate the money to charity?"

"To keep a good public image." Dominic said with a sneer. "Apparently, Thorn Industries has a public image and donating massive amounts to charity keeps people off his back."

"We have something very special tonight..." the MC said with a grin. "A 2 for 1 deal! And of em' is young, boys. Not even 18, so now is your chance to break em' in young."

The vampires in attendance whooped and hollered. Irving felt like he was going to be sick, where as Dominic could barely contain his rage.

The curtain drew back revealing a naked Fay and Elle, both of which had metal collars around the neck. The place broke into lewd cheers as the MC smacked Elle on the ass hard, leaving a bright red hand print.

"We shall start the bidding off at $1,000 for the both of them. Do I hear $1,000?"

Irving raised his hand to bid, having no intentions of paying. He figured it would be easier to win the bid and just sneak out with the girls. He was interrupted by Thorn who arrived in a new suit, his body having regained it's composure.

"One million dollars for the both of them." he said with a smile.

Fay just sneered when she heard Thorn's bid. She looked down at Elle, who was a little bloody and still crying a little, "Is everything ok?" She whispered.

"Go die," Elle shouted in responce to Thorn's bid. It was then she noticed Dominic and Irving. She bit her lip a little and balled up her fist.

Fay smirled a little though knew that that outburst would probably get Elle punished.

"Oohhh! She's a feisty one fellas!" the MC said about Elle. "Not even 18, gorgeous C cups...why, you can't go wrong with her."

"Um...what's a C cup?" Irving whispered.

"Breast size." Dominic replied, his eyes glued on his broken beauty.

"So we have a MILLION DOLLARS! Anyone wanna outbid?" the MC added with a chuckle. The room was deadly quiet as no one had that kind of money, but it's not like Irving was gonna let it stop him.

"One and a half million dollars!" he shouted, his arm outstreched eye. The crowd murmured with excitement at the very idea of someone attempting to outbid Thorn.

"Are you insane?!" Dominic hissed through clenched teeth. "We don't have that kind of money!"

"Just roll with me, Vamp-Boy." he whispered back.

From his private chair, Thorn scowled slightly, before adjusting his tie to help keep his composure.

"Looks like we have a fight!" the MC said grinning. "Before we take another bid, why don't we get a sneak peak at just what we're getting here?"

He turned towards Elle and Fay, his eyes gleaming with evil intent.

"Ladies...how about you two show us how much you love each other? Hmm? A little girl on girl perhaps?"

"Those...dogs will pay with their lives..." Dominic hissed, his fists clenched. Irving too was getting mad, trying to fight off the urge to get in combat.

With a nod of his head, Thorn sent two of his largest guards, one on each stage to further drive the point home to Elle and Fay that they would obey or suffer dire consequences.

Elle narrowed her eyes and watched as the guards stood only about ten feet behind them, she knew what this ment. To her she had nothing really to live for. She crossed her arms, "No offence Fay, but, I choose what ever punishment awaits me if I refuse. I'll take Fay's punishment too since you sick bastards are like this. Hopefully it'll kill me because nothing could be worse then being in the same room with Mr. Thorn, his ego and his incredibly small dick," Elle said loud enough for the whole room to hear. She was sick of being the timid girl that let people walk all over her, she was sick of being dependent on other people, she was finally ready to take a stand, even if it got her killed.

Almost as if it were a sleazy talk show, the entire crowd let out an "OOOHHHH!" awaiting what would happen to the girls. Thorn's eyes narrowed with rage, as he nodded again to the guards. A very large one, maybe about 7'1", 7'2" stood behind the girls, grabbing a head in each hand. Like they were mere Barbie dolls, he shoved their mouths together, forcing them into a crude parody of a kiss.

"Now that's what I call hot!" the MC joked. "Now, let's get back to t he bidding. I believe the stranger in the back was the highest bidder with 1.5 million? Do I hear 2 million?"

"Three million." Thorn said, making sure to smirk out of the corner of his mouth for Irving.

"Five million."
"Six million."
"SEVEN MILLION."
"TEN MILLION!"

Irving clenched his fists, wanting nothing more than to get the girls out of here.

"FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS!"

All of the air was sucked out of the room from such a steep amount, till Thorn shot up out of his chair, his eyes lasered right on Irving.

"ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!"

Before this could even sink in, Irving's mind snapped and he said the first thing that popped up.

"ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS!"

Now this was insane. Thorn's eyes grew wide as he fell back into his chair, stunned at being beaten by a random stranger.

"SOLD TO THE STRANGER!" the MC said, slamming his gavel to the podium.

In a huff, Thorn left his seat and disappeared into the crowd, verbally cursing Irving with every step he took.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fay and Elle were shuffled into a dark room with a small cot by a guard yielding some sort of gun.

"Stay in here and wait for your owner!" he said, slamming the door behind him.

The girls had little time to react before Thorn stepped out of the shadows, grabbing Elle by the waist and throwing her to the bed. In a flash her hands were cuffed to the headboard, preventing her movement.

Fay sprang forth into action, but another large guard stepped out of the shadows as well, wrapping his thick arms around the ex-harlot to restrain her, forcing her to watch.

"Now...I am going to get what I deserve." Thorn said, frantically undoing his expensive leather belt. "Oh and you scream all you want, this room is sound proof. No one can hear you."

He didn't even bother taking his shirt off, and with a quick yank, his pants were off as well. He grabbed her hips, sinking his fingernails in the flesh and with one sudden thrust, buried himself inside of her again.

His eyes rolled back into his head a bit as he began to bounce his body off hers, rough and hard, no signs of romance or even caring how she felt.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Though he couldn't hear her, Dominic could smell Elle's fear and knew she was in trouble.

"The girls...trouble." Dominic said, glancing towards a back room.

"And whom shall I say is paying?" one of the attendants said to Irving.

"Uh yeah, about that...we're going to go check out the merchandise first."

"But..."

"No butts, Jackass." Irving said. "Your boss approved this and you don't want to make him angry, do you?"

"No..."

"Then zip it."

The two men ran towards the back room, only to find the door locked from the inside. An old fashioned key hole made the thief smile slightly.

"Good thing I kept the ol' lock pick..." he said, and hurridly fumbled it through his pocket, trying to jimmy free the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ungh...ungh...ungh....ungh...." Thorn grunted, using all of his weight to hammer into Elle. He showed no signs of slowing down, his eyes almost grinning with demonic delight as he wallowed in her misery.

Fay stared at the handcuffs, trying to use her powers to free Elle. It didn't worh, which confused her, infact, since they, she and Irving, came to the future. Elle closed her eyes and turned her head to the side, she would have spat in Thorn's face, but her mouth was try. She seemed indifferent to the situation though that was the furthest from the truth. She was struggeling to hold back her tears.

To keep her self, mentally, away from the situation. She imagined herself where she would be the happiest, which, besides almost everywhere but here was in Dominic's arms.

"Unngghhhgggghhh....." Thorn grunted, going harder and harder. The flimsy springs and coils of the cot squeaked out under the torture as the vampire used every ounce of his muscular body to use the girl like a rag doll. His manhood slid in and out with increased speed and forced, as Elle laid nearly motionless, trying to push her mind a million miles away. He leaned forward and drug his tongue over her sweaty breasts, enjoying the salty taste it had to offer. His hips crashed into hers, her frail body actually bouncing off the bed he was doing it so hard.

"Almost....done..." he gasped, feeling the climax rumble to it's peak.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Stupid modern doors...." Irving grumbled, unable to pick the lock.

"Allow me." Dominic said, and with a mighty kick, reduced into splinters. What he saw send waves of revulsion of anger through his body. Thorn's entire body rocked against Elle's, his grunts of desire, her grunts of fear.

"YOU BASTARD!" Dominic shouted, his eyes glowing white as he reached his most feral state. Thorn turned around in shock, pulling out by mistake and exploding his payload all over Elle's stomach and breasts. "I WILL KILL YOU!"

With a speed that amazed Irving, Dominic flung himself across the room, hurling his entire body into Thorn. The two vampires crashed through a nearby wall, sounding up a cloud of debris and tile. Irving couldn't see anything, but heard what sounded like two demons fighting over a lost soul.

"Good luck, buddy." he said quietly.

Seeing her chance, Fay brought the heel of her foot up into the vampire's crotch, sending him down to his knees in agony.

"Irving!" she cried, wrapping her arms around the thief. Though the reunion didn't last long, as Irving quickly turned towards Fay's handcuffs, using his antique tools to jimmy the handcuffs free. Finally, what seemed like hours, they clicked open and Elle was free.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"FOOL! I have lived for centuries and eons, what makes you think you can do what many cannot?" Thorn taunted.

"Because I have something to fight for!" Dominic shouted and slashed at the crime lord. Thorn easily side-stepped him, scooped him and slammed him through another wall, Dominic wheezing as if he had been broken in half. His body was alive and on fire with pain, but he wasn't going to give up. Not for Elle. He HAD to keep fighting.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"We need to get you some medical help..." Irving said towards Elle. "If only we had some healing potions..."

Elle used the sheets of the on the cot she was left on to wipe herself off, "I... I don't need your help," She whispered, though neither of them heard her.

"Don't look at me, I woke up with out my quiver," She looked down at Elle who was sitting with her knees to her chest. She placed her hand on Elle's shoulder, "Irving, could find something for us to wear, preferabely some robes."

Elle was staring at Fay's hand and swatted it away, "Don't touch me!" She shouted.

Irving could see the far away look in Elle's eyes and knew she had to be hurting. It was painful to even look at it and it brought back horrible memories of all the things that happened to Fay during his absence.

"I'll go find some robes..." he said quietly.

A large crowd of confused vampires had gathered around the door, or what was left of it, each one looking stunned and shocked.

"Got a problem?" Irving said, pushing his way through the crowd. They stepped back, not wanting to mess with the man who's business partner was crazy enough to take on Thorn.

Irving returned a moment later with both of their original outfits, having found them laying in the waiting room. He had kicked open a back door, letting the rest of the girls run free. He returned back to Elle and Fay, the room deathly quiet, handing Fay both their outfits.

"Here, hun..." he said quietly.

"OOMMPH!" Dominic gasped as Thorn's knee crashed right into his mid-section. Dominic, beaten, bruised and bloody hit the ground, trying to push air back into his lungs. His vision was dizzy and blurred, his head spinning into darkness, his entire body moments from blacking out due to the over-whelming pain.

"And...so. It ends." Thorn said and reared his fast back for a mighty punch. At the very last second, Dominic rolled out of the way, as the master vampire's fist plunged through the wall, causing a beam of sunlight to spill through the crack.

Immediately Thorn screamed in agony as his flesh boiled and bubbled like melted plastic. More and more light hit his skin, causing him to yell loudly as the skin poured down his face like silly putty. With one final blood curdling scream, he burst into flames and moments later, his body was reduced to ash.

The sun missing him by a few inches, Dominic smirked slightly, before blacking out to the pain.

Fay handed Elle her clothes who quickly put them on. She made sure her jacket was extra tight, these actions might have been more paranoia induced that for comefort. She stood up, now slightly taller because of her boots, "I have to find Dominic..." She mumbled.

Fay was still in the middle of putting her boots on, and watched the weak and battered Elle stumble through the hole Dominic and Thorn made in the wall.

It seemed like an eternity, but Elle finally found Dominic, she seemed to completely forget about their argument from the previous night. Her legs seemed to give way under her weight and she fell to the ground, letting her upper half rest on his chest.
