Amber woke up a couple hours later, confused, hungry, and frightened. She wanted to cry but knew it would be useless. Slowly climbing off of the bed, she crawled underneith it and curled into a ball on the floor, shaking violently.

Damon knocked on the door to the room she was in. "Girl? Are you awake?" he called out softly. He leaned against the door lightly until she answered, if she did.

Amber did not answer, only wiped away a few frightened tears that had escaped. She moved farther under the bed, up agianst the wall.

Damon sighed out of irritance and unlocked the door. He walked in slowly and sniffed the air. "I know you are under the bed, girl. And that you're crying. Please let me explain why we lied to you and took you here." he paused to sit and lay down on the floor and look at her. He smiled at how far back she'd moved; it was cute in a way. "We can't let humans know our secret. It's bad enough the vampires are almost known of, as are the werewolves. My family just wants to remain secret. You'll be staying here until we can trust you."

She froze at the word 'vampire' and instantly touched the right side of her face to make sure it was covered. She let out a sigh of relief when she felt that it was. "I..I won't tell anyone.... There's ....no one for me to tell anyway... Please let me go." she begged. She wouldn't normally have begged but hunger and fear made it hard to think properly.

The gargoyle moved closer, crawling like an animal until he was under the bed and only 2 feet away from her. He tilted his head to the side, licking his lips lightly as dust particles touched them. "I cannot. Come, you are hungry. There is food in the dining hall." he said and offered her a hand. His face softened. "I will not let any harm come to you; I swear."

Amber stared at the floor and knew she had no choice. She slowly crawled out from under the bed and stood up, dusting herself off and keeping her eyes on the ground. All she hoped was that this wouldn't be like last time. She didn't know if she was strong enough to survive another ordeal like with her vampires.

Damon crawled out as well and shook the dust off. He smirked slightly at her and led her out of the room. "This will be your room unless otherwise. My room is the one with the green lettering on it, and my sisters have red lettering." he stated to her. "That's the bathroom (gold door) and that's the library (black door)." He stopped outside of two massive white doors. "This is the dining hall."

Amber nodded blankly at everything he said, feeling very out of place. Her old torn blue jeans and plain black hoodie didn't belong anywhere in this house, excpet maybe in the garbage. Out of habit she checked every few mintes to make sure her face was still covered.

Damon looked at her as she checked her face. "You don't need to hide them." he stated, meaning her scars. He'd seen them, as did his sisters. He opened the door and led her in. There were two other people there, both male, and they were dressed similarly to Amber. "What do you want to eat?" he asked her softly. They eyed her warily.

Amber continued to stare at the ground, moving her hair to over her entire face. She did this when she was scared or nervous, it made her feel invisable, a feeling she deeply enjoyed. If you were invisable no one could see you and hurt you. "I don't care." she mumbled.

Damon nodded and waved his hand. A chicken dinner with a side of salad and mashed potatoes appeared. "You're not allergic to anything are you?" he asked and led her over to the meal. He pulled her chair out and waited for her to sit.

She quickly sat down. "I.. don't think so." she said. She hadn't tried enough food in her lifetime to know if she was allergic to anything. Amber blinked at the meal, slightly suspicios.

Damon sat next to her. "Eat." he commanded and a plate appeared in front of him. It was the same meal as hers. He began to eat it without worry. The other two men looked at her.
